Looking historically, there were periods where interest rates remained low for a long period of time. How long can we afford to hold up bonds going forward? Such a question has been asked by the zero hedge and other pessimist crowd for at least the past 15 years of this bull market in bonds. At a basic game strategy level, you might assume that Russia either has good info or has been deceived. Thus one could bet that we are at an inflection point with bonds, with a move away in either direction. A look at the long term 30 year interest rate chart we are at long term downtrend. So a trader may use a simple strategy, by playing direction or volatility away from that downtrend line.
