Let me preface this by saying I am very very risk averse. I have saved enough to FIRE, but continue working. My goal now is capital preservation and I primarily focus on I-Bonds, T-Bills, REITS and other fixed income sources. I have adequate exposure in the stock market via 401ks and IRAs and I dont intend investing any more.
Back to the intent of this post - I have been investing in 4w, 13w, 24w and 1y T-Bills via the laddering strategy. The recent rate hikes make some of the longer term bonds (2y+) appealing. I had been holding off investing in them due to the constant hikes. Is it time to slowly incorporating longer duration bonds in my portfolio? Or would I be locking myself at lower yields?
