The “New” Contrarian Case for Bonds

If you want to take some tech profits off the table, bonds might be a good place to stash your cash. During the AI boom, investors have allocated the lowest amount of capital to bonds in 15 years:

During a Fed rate cut cycle, bond yields follow, which typically means bond prices tick higher. If you buy bonds now, you’ll be getting in ahead of the crowd.

And if this tech wreck shapes up anything like 2000-01, investors will want to get out fast. Despite the debt mess in Washington, bonds will again look “safe.”

One minor bonus: if you buy now, you’ll lock in higher yields before the next Fed rate cut, which is expected to come one week from today.

P.S.  Tomorrow @ 2pm EST/11am PST on Grey Swan Live! we’ll be joined by Bonner Private Research’s Dan Denning to identify key sectors likely to benefit from an early “Santa Rally” when the Fed cuts rates on December 10, 2025.  And how you should position your overall portfolio to benefit from the economic incentives the Trump administration will put in place ahead of the 2026 midterms.
