Bessent's Bond Buyback Plan Could Sink Long-Term ETFs

Motley Fool argues that Scott Bessent's plan to double buybacks of long-term Treasuries has failed to calm markets, with 30-year yields at multi-year highs and long-duration bond ETFs like EDV and TLT potentially facing further declines; given the national debt and higher rates, a diversified approach such as the Vanguard Total Bond Market ETF (BND) may be a safer option than sticking to EDV or TLT.
