Hello Reader, Had to block a dude on Twitter today because he was… let’s use the word unhappy that I was “selling bonds” at “all-time-low rates” and was I “out of [my] friggin’ mind.” The inspiration for this vein-popping rage was, of course, the Bond Masterclass. Anyway, I didn’t mind because first of all, he was a troll, but more importantly, he was just wrong: I am not “selling bonds” and We actually don’t know that this is “all-time-low rates.” I don’t know, you guys. It’s wild, there is a cohort of people who are so hopped-up on media coverage of the BOND RALLY and LOW RATES FOREVER that even the mention of bonds is some kind of trigger. There is a distinct lack of intellectual flexibility among this group. And as you know… lack of intellectual flexibility will really get you in trouble as an investor. Anyway, I know from all The 10th Man feedback over the last while some of you don’t like the idea of buying bonds right now, and that’s cool with me. The Bond Masterclass teaches you about bond investing now, in the future, forever. It is not some “buy this bond now and make X% in X months” type of thing. You know me better than that by now. The Bond Masterclass is an education. It makes you a more well-rounded investor… It gives you knowledge that most other individual investors simply don’t have… and that gives you an edge… It does all of that while making the fixed income market about as interesting and as easy to understand as you’ll get, anywhere. And you know what? Given the media headlines and all of that noise, it’s actually a pretty contrarian thing to do. If you want to see exactly what I mean, take a look right here. Jared Dillian
