I will not short the market. Not because I think that we wont go down, but because I burnt my fingers to often in the past going short.

 

Now my question:

What would be the alternative if you dont wanna go simply into cash during the bear? Given that Bond yields should rise wouldntit be promissing to go Long AGG (Barclays Aggregate Bond) ? Or do I get something wrong here?

 

Thats the bond index Antonacci recomends to buy once that Dual Momentum strategy goes out of stocks, which will happen once the 12 month percentage change goes below the short term bill rate.

 

Gold Looks promissing too. Maybe go Long miners via VanEck ETF? Any thoughts?

Of course when yields rise bond prices fall.

S&P A/D closed at record 52 week highs yesterday. 

Why not go long and write some cover calls for income and hedge against some downside.  This rally should last into mid May.
