[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you are investing for long term (5+ years), go for it. If you need cash in the near term (next 2-3 years), save it in bonds.[/quote] Won’t bond prices go down if interest rates go up? And aren’t interest rates sure to go up?[/quote] If the interest rates go up, the world is screwed led by the US.. US will have to borrow at progressively higher rates to service their loans leading to eventual default and the collapse of the current monetary system across the world. To prevent this, they will do everything in their power to keep interest rates low, keep the $ the reserve currency. If that doesn't work, start a war so money keeps flooding into US bonds driving rates down.. Short answer: Rates will not be going up for a LONG time. Many very smart people bet that rates will go up after the last QE cycle and we are still waiting.[/quote]
