Public trading strategy
Trump goes all-in on pressuring the Fed to cut rates — buy long-term bonds befor
Created
Thesis
When a president publicly pressures the Fed to cut rates and attacks dissenting board members, bond markets tend to price in faster rate reductions. Lower interest rates make existing bonds more valuable, so buying long-term Treasury bonds captures that price bump. If the Fed chair buckles under the political pressure, even a quarter-point cut would send bond prices noticeably higher.
Strategy approach
Build a rule-based strategy that enters long TLT on D1 when the 10-year Treasury yield drops 10 basis points over any 3-day window and front-page political pressure on the Fed is active. Hold for 30 days with a 3% stop loss.
