My answer for most individual fixed income instruments is to ladder them and then stay true to the strategy of reinvesting maturing notes on the long end and enjoy life.
A ladder is a great hedge against interest rate risk and it eliminates having to guess. Rates on the intermediate/long end can drop just as easily as they go up. No one knows the future.
I generally agree with this strategy but you can't turn a blind eye to the rate at which these rates are rising compared to what they've been for several years. Paying a penalty to break a CD makes sense for many people.
A good example, I recently had a $100k CD roll over for 12 months at 2.00% and now I can get 2.75% from the same S&L. Well worth the 3 month penalty.
No crystal ball here but it's pretty safe to say rates will continue to rise. We're in almost historic times with these ever changing rates.
