    You pointed out the problem with investing in bonds in a rising interest rate environment. You are right that holding a bond directly from IPO to maturity is better vs holding the bond ETF in a rising interest rate environment, but if the opposite is true, a decreasing interest environment, then you would be better off investing in the bond ETF. The reason the bond ETF would be best in a decreasing interest environment is because the ETF bonds are appreciating in value and the bond owned directly will mature at it's face value (no appreciation). All in all, if you invest long-term into a diversified mix of bonds directly, then the return performance should not be much different than investing in an index that is similar to those bonds. So, if you believe interest rates are peaking, then long-term bond ETFs will perform better than their recent history. Also, if you think inflation is peaking, then any investment in TIPS will perform poorly in the near term. Not sure you touched on it (I didn't hear it mentioned, possibly I was distracted), but TIPS behave differently than normal treasury bonds. TIPS value increases as inflation increases, which means TIPS interest rates also increase with inflation. However, the market prices in what is expected to happen and not what is currently happening or what happened in the past. So, if TIPS are down, it means the market is expecting in the future either that inflation will decrease and thus TIPS will earn less in interest or that the economy is improving and thus investors are selling TIPS to invest more in riskier assets.

    Well. If you hold the indvidual bond, with each year you hold it the duration comes down. Of course when in the last year of holding the bond there is a sharp rise in interest rates, the individual bond that has only a duration of 1 left will not fall as much as the bond fund that keeps it's duration at a stable level by constantly trading the bonds it holds to match a certain duration profile.

      wouldn't the bonds inside the ETF adjust higher at maturity? Also the yield would increase with inflation. Th real risk is if fed funds exceeds CPI. That seems very rare, like US government default which is a nuclear scenario anyway.

  • @vitawater4259
    @vitawater4259 Рік тому +4

    Excellent description of the problem. The ETF/Fund set up is one where there is constant purchases and liquidations. Thus, in the bond fund scenario, you are guaranteed to sustain a capital loss due to the turnover within the fund. It is counterproductive to the "safety" aspect of a bond fund. It seems that risk is a relative term.

      Watch inflation, to know. Because, the future value of the bond principle returned must be discounted by the rate of inflation during the period of time the bond is held. Because of uncertainty in central bank actions and inflation, predicting fair value is more difficult than are stocks.

    Thanks Jimmy! There has been a collective amnesia in the financial services industry on the purpose of bonds in a portfolio. Until about 2000 they were sold / marketed as a means of capital preservation. That’s only true if they are held to maturity. Bond ETFs strip that important feature out and they are simply another “total return” asset. This year has shown that the Emperor has no clothes.

    I believe you would be buying these bond ETFs for the next QE cycle, while we are in a QT cycle. Once the FED goes neutral, I believe these bond ETFs will balance out and start expanding when the FED starts buying again. The only reason why you would be buying these ETFs are for their dividends and not what the underlying base prices are. Kind of like a hold and dividend forever strategy.

    Holding a single bond or an ETF is the same thing. The ETF is priced daily, so has to show the decreased face value on the open market if rates rise. Holding a single bond is the same, the face value drops in an increasing rate environment, and vice versa. Same with CDs (you just don't see it b/c the face value looks identical) but if that was priced on the open market, it would have a discounted face value. When a bond matures in the ETF, it's rolled into a new bond at the higher rate.

    Apples to oranges comparison. A 5 year bond becomes a 4 year bond after a year, then it becomes a 3 year bond, etc. In a rising rate environment like we're in now, shortening the duration is better which is why the individual bond beats the ETF in your cherry-picked scenario. The ETF on the other hand has to maintain a constant 5-year duration, which loses money while rates rise rapidly; but as soon as rates stabilize or fall, the ETF will outperform. That's because the ETF is currently buying 5 year Treasuries with 4.5-5% yields, while your bond is stuck at 2%. The ETF eventually will be full of Treasuries that yield 4-5%, and once rates fall, those Treasuries will appreciate, beating your individual bond.
