Selling Short Long Bonds?????

[squiffy]

Bought some LUV. Bought some MRK. Any hot tips out there.

Don't know much about long-term bonds. Is there any kind of index, traded like the QQQ, which you could invest in, by seling short or buying a put???

In other words, if you believe inflation eventually will picks up and long-term bond prices will drop, is there an easy way to place a bet on this outcome via Ameritrade????

I bought 2 year puts for CFC at strike 90, which I think will eventually pay off. But then read an article that said why not be directly against long-term bonds, which makes a lot of sense. Betting against a stock is a lot more complicated that betting against the long-term value of a 10 year bond at 3% or whatever the current yield or rate is.
