Robert Kessler, Kessler Companies founder & CEO, explains why he thinks the 10-year Treasury bond is still an attractive place for investors: “I think one of the big mistakes, at least I hear all the time, is we’re going to buy these big cap dividend stocks because in the long term, that will be a good investment. every time I hear the long term, I know someone’s losing money.” Here is a direct link.

Humans just repeat the same old themes decade after decade. Today there is far more debt to service, thus greater financial impact on spending. Ask Walmart's CEO if he's noticed any change in consumer behavior while the U.S 10 years hits 5%.
Don’t forget in April of 2007 10 year hit 5.3% and by October of 2008 they were 2%.
1. I don’t agree. I personally think that the 31 year government bond bull market has come to an end.
2. Negative real interest rates are very good for gold.
3. The more money central banks print, the lower yields go. But when another investment class pops up investors will flee those low yielding T-bonds, sending yields (much) higher.
Thank you for this excellent clip. This stock market, pre-election June & July, melt up could be the last chance for us savers (safers) to pick up bonds at reasonable prices in this decade. JW, Langley BC
