The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Since market close on Wed, the iShares bond ETFs of various durations have all gone up a bit, with the longer-dated maturities showing the most gain.

Meanwhile, the SPDR floating rate ETF FLRN has declined by about 1.5%.

I don't know which iShares bond ETFs you looked at, but in terms of uncertainty, corporate bonds fall, and treasuries go up, with yields moving in the opposite direction.
