In October you hit the trifecta. That was the absolute best time to have laddered. I looked back at a potential 5 year treasury ladder and 5.12% average was the best possible. I missed it by about 70 basis pointsI purchased a 15 year * 12 month Treasury Strip (Zero Coupon) Ladder (all mature in Nov of the year) in Oct 2023. Yield To Maturities (I skipped typing in years between 5-10 and 10-15):
Year 1; 5.221%
Year 2: 4.731
Year 3: 4.553
Year 4: 4.461
Year 5: 4.412
.
Year 10: 4.630
.
Year 15: 4.880
