Interest rate risk
Since a bond ETF never matures, there isn't a guarantee the principal will be repaid in full. Furthermore, when interest rates rise, it tends to harm the price of the ETF, lik...

i have this constant struggle and hope to get everyone’s thoughts on this - bond values and interests are inversely related. when the interest rate of the bond goes up, the value goes low. and the reverse is also true.

Wall Street is on a roller coaster again, as investors try to navigate the path between high inflation and the Fed’s aggressive interest rate hikes. The former is raging – whether you blame Russia or Biden, the fact of high inflation can no longer be avoided – while the latter is rising – but whether it is rising fast enough to blunt inflation is yet to be determined.
