GOVZ: A Pure Play Way Of Betting On Treasuries
Investing in STRIPS, especially through the iShares 25+ Year Treasury STRIPS Bond ETF, offers a pure play on long-term interest rates without regular coupon payments. GOVZ holds U.S. Treasury STRIPS with an average maturity of 27.21 years, making it highly sensitive to interest rate changes and ideal for targeting specific durations. GOVZ's unmatched duration exposure is beneficial for investors predicting long-term rate drops, though it carries significant risks if rates rise due to its high sensitivity.

Rates Spark: ECB Presser Bear-Flattened The Curve
The ECB cut rates by 25bp as widely anticipated, but a slightly hawkish tilt bear flattened the EUR curve, which in our view remains priced aggressively. In the US, as the markets head towards the Fed's first rate cut, the probability of a larger cut rose slightly on Thursday.

Estimating The Impact Of Lower Rates On Bond Fund Dividends
It generally takes a few years for changes in Federal Reserve rates to fully impact bond fund dividends. Bond funds are still benefitting from prior rate hikes. Perhaps by enough to cancel out any future rate cuts. By my estimations, and under current Fed guidance, most bond funds would only start to see declining dividends in 2025, at the earliest.
