Bond traders are betting big on rate hikes — short long-term Treasuries as inflation forces the Fed's hand
Bond traders are aggressively positioning for multiple Fed rate hikes, with some expecting the first increase as early as September.
Idea
Rising inflation and a strong labor market are forcing the Fed's hand toward higher interest rates. When rates rise, bond prices fall—especially longer-duration bonds that are most sensitive to rate changes. Professional traders are already piling into this trade, and retail investors can ride the same momentum.
