Given that we are in the last cycle of the Fed raising interest rates, would buying and holding TN for at least one year be a good investment?
Despite incurring some percentage of loss due to contract rollover, it still appears to be a better option compared to holding TLT. TN was high at 160'0 in Sept 2020.

Thanks

yes ,would be my simple answer . I have built a bond latter . it buys 30 day , 90 day , six month , 1 year and 2 year T bonds . as long as intrest rates are going up ,the money will be on the shorter end of the curve . when the FED starts cutting rates ,it will be on the longer end of the curve . I do not go out any more than 2 years , no futures or any kind of leverage , and no more than 50 % of my total account . hope it helps !
