RE:RE:RE:Ffn.pr

RE:RE:RE:Ffn.prThe carry trade is dead, unless someone likes to play with fire. I made my first carry trade with DGS in 2010 after the financial crash. Held it for years and did extremely well... paid only interest and when rates started to climb years later I paid back my HELOC. I was entertaining the trade again when rates were crashed to 0 during covid, but decided not to. In hindsight , it would have worked out but the key is to know when to close it. Unlike post financial crash, many did not expect rates to go up this fast in such a short time post covid. Some may have been caught.
