TLT Breakdown Momentum Strategy
Created
Thesis
Yields above the 5.25% mark are a historically important threshold where stocks and bonds start reinforcing each other's losses, pointing to a lasting regime of higher volatility and falling bond prices — not a one-day dip. The Bank of America fund manager survey confirms that 'disorderly rise in yields' has replaced the AI bubble as the market's top fear, meaning institutional money is actively repositioning away from duration. Persistent inflation and a Fed hemmed in toward hiking keep upward pressure on yields. A straightforward short of the long-bond ETF rides this trend with defined risk.
