Sure the bull/bear ratio on TLT among all stars is 14 to 161. No matter. The S&P will revisit 750 this year. This means my pick wins as long as the TLT doesn't drop more than 15%--the S&P's known loss. TLT has technically turned the corner… More

Safest play against treasuries is to short this ETF. I´m planning on doing this with real mony, rather than buying TFT.

Without a doubt this is a horrible long term call, but I only plan to "park" money here temporarily so that, like the other gazillion Fools who were prudent enough to realize that a major bear market rally was underway and get long (also temporarily), I can get out of all my equity holdings fast. On Friday, October 23rd when i saw that the day was without going to be a gargantuan bear reversal engulfing day at the tipity-top of the bear market rally, I decided to get out of all my long positions in my IRA, my 403b and my 401k, etc... I recognized that I was up 60% in less than a year and said... sh!t man, I'll take it. But then... the devastating realization that I have to park that money somewhere came to me--soon followed by the realization that I'm not alone in this matter, though probably a little early. And hence, I knew that a whole lot of people were going to put their money into safe bonds and that we would probably see a risk aversion trend begin again that would push up bonds while equities sank. I also don't think it's a coincidence that the government is holding--not just a record auction, but a record auction that pales all previous record auctions--just as the market is about to cave. They are clever little people aren't they. Any who, I realize that my CAPS score does not represent my previous bullish attitude, but that's because I think we are in a bear market rally. I expect a right shoulder to form in the indicies (which presumes another bounce higher) but then the sky will fall again. And Gawd help us when the stupid and expensive stimulus plans end because we'll actually be forced to take the medicine. GL all!
