“The mechanism to play for higher short term yields is to sell short SHY.”
VERIFIED
The evidence confirms that SHY is the iShares 1-3 Year Treasury Bond ETF, which provides exposure to short-term U.S. Treasury bonds. In finance, bond prices and yields have an inverse relationship; therefore, selling short a bond ETF (betting that the price will fall) is the standard mechanism to profit from rising yields. The web search results confirm the nature of SHY as a short-term Treasury instrument, and the Wikipedia entries on bond funds confirm the general mechanics of debt securities.
