Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
Yeah I’m still amazed how many folks are savoring current MM rates as if they can’t drop as quickly as they rose. Same for folks that feel 3 yrs is long term. The inversion has people piling into the short end. My favorite term now is ten years. I need to reinvest in late Jan and I expect there will still be decent availability for 10 yr corporates BB or better >5%.
I feel pretty confident that rates won't be much or at all lower in 5 years. I'm more concerned about my long term inflation hedges over all other aspects of my investments. But we each must play this game the best we can. (OTOH, I don't have a ton of my fixed in MM funds, my weighted days till maturity is right around a year on my non-preferred fixed investments.)
