Smart money sells treasuries like this if expectation that yields are going much higher. Right now risk markets expect Fed to slow down then pivot this year.

Bonds tell a different story.

Sell ahead of rising yields, buy back when Fed is done.

I expect Fed to raise to at least 5.5% before a pause, with no reverse course this year. Inflation will remain elevated

😳

I agree with you but why has being risk on since the beginning of the year been so profitable. I am looking to exit but it keeps going up :)

Markets are not efficient.

We’ve had a great short term move, might even go higher in short run.

Also a lot of great TAs out there who can tell you how to trade daily.

But I’m a longer term investor.

What's the markets?

Fed playbook: Get to 5.5%, hold, and wait and see.

Market: just over here front running the feds ultimate capitulation

Markets can stay irrational longer than you can stay liquid. But also don’t fight the Fed. 2 axioms that seem to be in conflict currently.

This is why risk management is important. Not fully invested with liquidity exits in this environment.

Agreed. Lots of dry powder. That said I have begun building a commercial re portfolio. Past year of rate hikes has begun to offer some opportunities.
