US Treasuries: It's The Surpluses, Stupid! - iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (NYSEARCA:TLT) | Seeking Alpha
This is a great article about why long term bonds are still in a bull market. As the author mentioned, people think bonds are in a bubble just like stocks, but they will not be going down anytime soon. Foreigners prefer the security of U.S. bonds, and the interest being paid is greater than other bonds from negative interest and lower interest countries.
Secondly, even while the stock market has made new highs, stocks will eventually come down, and bonds will go up when this happens because investors will rush for the most secure place for their money. I own BLV and TMF as long term bond funds, and I am making money. So, don't let anyone talk you out of owning bonds.
