Just curious if a) you are using short, medium, or longer term bonds (Treasuries I assume?), and b) if you view the large bond position as a longer term investment, or a shorter/mid term parking place until the stock market finally bottoms out, and then you will transition back into the stock market?

If 'b', then wouldn't T-Bills or the money market be a safer and more flexible alternative to the bonds? T-Bills at over 5% look pretty good all things considered, and money markets are over 4.5%. With the bonds you can also get a capital gain, so I assume that is the attraction?

Thanks for any insights into your strategy :o)
