Bonds are down in the downturn and bonds are down in the upturn.
First, why does this happen? I thought stock market outflows and sell offs lead to an uptick in bonds.
Second, is there any point to having a bond etf like IBDQ vs an actual bond that pays dividends or high interest CDs or some such, if bonds seem to always be flat or down (albeit less down than stocks.)
