The 30Y has been slaughtered by the recent tax cut compromise that reinforces the lack of ability of the US government close their budget gap.
But the position is still out of the money and I will continue holding. I am optimistic for a bounce within a short timeframe to allow a profitable exit from this position.
This position ended with TLT at 90.80 on Jan 20. Thus it was an 80.5% loss.
QE4 is coming.
