Only AAA bonds or treasuries appear to increase in value during a recession, the longer dated, the more they are affected by lower interest rates??
I have been investing in BBB- bonds, with decent fundamentals to survive a downturn, bought at a sharp discount, 20 percent to par with a callable date in a few years, at which time the bond will be called in, as there is no chance rates will be as high then as they are now.
Should I just bay 7 year treasuries and then cash them out when the increase in value when rates drop, at which point I put them in index fund?
