Does anyone here ‘bet’ on interest rates e.g. either to hedge or speculate? What is a good way to do this.
I know there are indirect ways e.g. through buying or selling bonds. But I wonder if there are accessible ways to do this directly. e.g. using derivatives.
Well there are futures (fed fund, eurodollar), but you need a bit of capital to trade those.
Otherwise, why not choose bonds? Much more accessible…
Me and Jerome do phone calls about once a month or so.
Next one happens to be on January 27.
(Sorry, couldn’t resist … 
)
They are more accessible, but come with other risks and don’t necessarily move with interest rate moves e.g. last time the Fed cut, but long duration bond yields rose.
