Direxion Daily 20+ Year Treasury Bull 3X Shares ETF Stock Discussion

103978605 : Can you explain what the time decay problem in tmf is? I’ve been holding since September and I’m down 40% - my thinking is to keep it no to sell. Unless I’m not seeing something related to the time decay.

Ultratech OP 103978605 : when it goes up and down it doesn't retain as much value and price adjusts a bit daily probably to align with its underlying and bonds are a bit sluggish so it's not a good ticker to hold leaveraged last time it went under 4 and then reverse split when I see that i suspect it will happen again

ひな☆彡 SOXL(Bull) 103978605 : may want to consider selling put and either getting premium or reduce cost basis

Ultratech OP ひな☆彡 SOXL(Bull) : I wouldn't do that either could rally unpredictable

Ultratech OP 103978605 :

MooMooTan : No one dare to buy more of I Owe notes from US , printed too much money

Ultratech : no no no. have fun watching account go down.  look at my post  below. bonds are sluggish and this one has decay. $iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (TLT.US)$ or $Vanguard Total Bond Market ETF (BND.US)$ or similar but unfortunately tmf is bs risky.

thoughtful Bat_8163 : Very attractive at this level. But let’s wait for Trump ‘s policies first. It is never too late to invest.

TheWiseGuy2100 : Loaded the boat..lowest price in history. RSI   in the 20s…we will bounce and retest the 15 EMA at the least! DCA every week!

thoughtful Bat_8163 : Good catch! Almost everyday the same pattern

103978605 : Why could make this go up? I’m down 6 k wonder if I should continue to hold

103978605 : I mean I know what was supposed to make it go up which is a slow and steady rate cut but all though this has been given , the effect was the opposite .. quite confused

Chris12 : Only by lowering the price can Institutions with large funds rebalance at the end of the year, there will be a reaction next week.

Huat Biggest : People starts to FOMO before 18 Dec FOMC meeting

BFSkinner Huat Biggest : Money needs to flow into bonds. It ain’t gonna if no rate cuts

Ultratech : no bonds are always kind of blah so why put up with decay/rebalance/expense ratio of blah bonds. Just go with $Vanguard Total Bond Market ETF (BND.US)$ or $iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (TLT.US)$ or similiar. to me simply going all in on spy exposure or any good stock with high market cap probably better than a bond anyway most of us aren't working with millions the entire market itself or any spy etf might as well be considered a bond at least that's how I think about it the big  gurus and hedgefunds don't buy up bonds they  buy stocks anyway
