IEF iShares Barclays 7-10 Yr Treasury (7-8yr)
LQD iShares iBoxx Invest Grade Bond (7-8yr)

Therefore, the strategy is purchasing LQD, TIP, and SHY for October.

this has gotten kind of crazy...

Over the long run, corporate debt will underperfom stocks. It doesn't have the upside potential that common equity does. That said, no portfolio is really diversified without it. I happily took a bad score from a red thumb on this pick last winter while I watched myself not lose as much real-life money.

Spreads are still higher, strictly, than they ought to be, and this fund will outperform in a short-term perspective, in either a bear or a sideways churn market. One would expect it to be trounced by the 'secular bull', if that beast truly makes a return; I don't think he's back in the ring yet, and that's what this pick is saying.

In case bonds do better than stocks, a low price etf bond fund.

Corporate bonds are a bargain given the spread over 10-year TBonds. Why not get paid a decent yield and avoid the uncertainty of equities for now?

Steady dividends will likely beat the market, which I believe will be heading south 2009 Q1 as continued bad news sinks in.

This is a Corporate Bond ETF and is a great way to add these bonds to your portfolio. It currently pays a 5.8% rate of interest monthly and would compound very nicely. The bond spread for corporate bonds is huge right now and this is an easily tradable way to benefit from this right now without having to pick individual bonds.

Going long on stocks; short on bonds.

ETF beaten down by credit crisis. Portfolio is built on investment grade corporate bonds. Stodgy dull stuff. I think there's a 15% upside on share price as credit market improves plus there's a 6+% dividend.

We'll see how lousy I am at timing the market . . . but this is my attempt at saying the worst may be over and Long-term interest rates should begin to head higher.

Stocks outperform bonds.

Fixed income market is in a bubble, the yields are too low and do not reflect the reality of rising worldwide inflation. Get ready for a long term bear market in bonds

No way this will outperform the S&P in the long run.
