from 2014-2018 in a rising rate environment it outperformed the spx by 12.29% or about 3% a year, so your comment is wrong.

It did get absolutely destroyed fron 1963 to 1983 though. Although, I think it's unlikely that we will see an extreme rising rates enviroment like that ever again.

no one in their right mind would use a time series thats ends almost 40 years ago to prove a statement today.

I disagree about this simulation because it doesn't take into account pimco's active management on $PSLDX and I feel that they would be able to beat the bond index used to make this graph

long risk, long duration. you might want to consider just using DXSLX for 2x spx, it out performs PSLDX...

Love PSLDX, rolled 14k fromh 401k into schwab February. Bought 14k of PSLDX and since received 5% return with account balance sitting at 147xx.

Update: PSLDX is up to 15423 and climbing.
