When is it ideal to purchase bonds?

No one has a crystal ball.. so the future cant be seen.. and for investment advice, you should probably look at investment websites rather than mortgage sites.. this all being said.. as far as interest rates goes.. the projection is that rates will be higher, but understand that the rates have been held artificially low during President Obama's administration by the federal reserves aggressive purchasing of Mortgage Backed Securities *(MBS). Since after President Trump took office, the market has gone bonkers... and although the federal reserve has backed off on the purchasing of MBS's in the last 2-3 years of Obama, they have eased even more during Trumps term... this is bad for rates, which is why rates continue to climb. So as far as the bond market is concerned.. The payout on bonds will have to increase to attract investors.. what's the right ratio? When should you get in? When should you get out? Who knows?
