And you may be right jongo. SJB and coy. react to junk bond prices via futures. Past performance doesn't stack up to the kick up VIX eyfs can give. It's just not the same thing but a rise that is more slow and even.
If you're going for the big king hit VIX etfs is the way to go and BIS, the bio tech indices short etf.
There are two ways to go:
trade an etf (the old in out) or
hold on and see what unfolds.
Anything to do with indices, it's the former and bonds, commodities etc it's the latter. It is annoying when you see a great trade potential but either your platform doesn't trade it of the margin % just doesn't make a trade viable.
Also there are some very interesting bond etfs with little downside and amazing upside. It wouldn't surprise me either if 10yr Tbills only get to ~4% within the next few years before the FED has to lower o/n rates.
And lowering of interest rates will be flagged a long way off as will market turmoil. Make money going both up and down.
It seems there just isn't a "long term investment" anymore.
