Ideas

Higher-for-longer yields; no explicit TLT short.

Avoid TLT: the Bloomberg segment says global long-end yields are likely to remain elevated, which is bearish for long-duration Treasury exposure, but it does not state an explicit short or puts trade.

JGB yield-rise view; no explicit short.

Avoid Japanese government bonds: the Bloomberg segment argues JGB yields are likely to rise as the BOJ stays behind the curve and supply pressure persists, which is bearish for long JGB exposure, but it does not state an explicit short or puts trade.
