Anyone else buy that dip in the low 18's (as I did)? Seemed like a gift. Still looking at 19.75 this fall for a quick trade.

Nice little dip lately (added some) but still looking at 19.75 this fall.

Back in for another recent trade at 18.50. Should see the price run up to around 19.75 this fall.

Still on the sidelines and in rush. Inflation is the states has now increased for 5 months in a row...so they are done for the year cutting down there. Canada is boxed in a corner with tariff issues ...more

Below 19 bucks today...bond market is looking very ugly. I will wait for a reentry point as downside is not done.

Still holding as it breaks above 20 bucks. Didnt really expect to make this much money on a bond ETF over the past year and figure it will be time to trim back and take some profits very soon.

Extreme volatility in the equity markets giving this one a real good boost. My call for 20 by year end is arriving much earlier.

Just started to wade in again on XLB at 18.25. Will add on any further weakness. Still see this one north of 20 bucks by year end.

This etf has pulled back about 5 percent since I sold about two weeks ago. Seems the bond guys feel inflation is going to be sticky. May take another look very soon as I believe by year end this one ...more

sold my position today. It was nice quick ride from the low 17's. Will take a look again if it pulls back.

Looks like I timed this one when purchasing in the low 17's. Still holding as it approaches 20 bucks just a month later.

Nice that it has pulled up off its lows...however the volatility remains with daily swings of plus/minus one percent. Will be nice when a clearer picture of the inflation front shows itself. Still ...more

Well..it tried to move up but got slapped back down again. No doubt we got some real sticky inflation on our hands.

RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Time for long term bonds???

Wow..it just keeps on dropping day after day with no end in sight.

RE:RE:RE:RE:Time for long term bonds???

Looks like a 10+ year low today on this one today. Still talks of higher rates likely means it wil go lower. Just wow.
