>I'm an investment analyst for an independent investment management company in Ottawa. I am a Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) charter holder, and I have a Bachelors degree in Finance. I'm a huge finance nerd and am passionate about the field - I think people lack the resources they need to make educated financial decisions, and hopefully this channel helps with that!

With deaths and cases doubling in the US with no signs of slowing down its hard to think it will be anything but another slaughter of red.

Which is great for me and my puts.

wtf is that

bond funds like TLT hold existing bonds (bonds that have already been issued in the past, with rates determined at the time of issue)

so when rates go down, the existing bonds (with higher rates) instantly become more valuable. (also, if the fed is cutting rates, it means the economy might have some turbulence, so demand for bonds can rise).


Bond funds go down when the fed raises rates significantly, because the demand for the existing bonds with locked in rates is lowered. (also, if the fed is raising rates, the economy is probably doing OK, so people will probably be moving money from bonds into stocks, so the demand for existing and new bonds might decrease).
