When I started diving into markets back in 2018, bonds barely caught my eye. Now, they’re on my radar every single day.
Over time, I’ve learned just how important they really are.
You might not like it. Maybe they seem boring or too slow. Maybe you don’t trade them at all.
But the bond market moves everything else. It always has—and it always will.
For some perspective, the bond market sits at $140 trillion—far bigger than global equities, with gold, silver, and crypto nowhere near that size.
Every time the iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF $TLT gets down near this level, buyers show up.
Every single time.
If TLT is going to start ripping, this looks like the most logical place to begin.
And what does that mean for equities?
Well, it’s not necessarily bearish. What matters is the pace of any move.
If treasuries rip higher aggressively, stocks might face some selling pressure.
But if bonds grind higher in a more controlled way, that’s the sweet spot. Stocks and bonds can both benefit.
That's how I see it.
