I researched it and it looks like an excellent hedge against the S&P but also follows the same upward trend based on historic data. Im thinking about buying into it in my roth and traditional IRA - if theres ever a crash or big drop in the S&P and DOW then TLT goes up and can be sold

Stoney_21, where did you get the ETF information? Thanks.
 
The 10y treasury etfs are a great idea to watch as the fed makes up its mind for an interest rate hike. The moment that gets announced you should see a bare minimum 15% boost right of the bat on any of the T-bill etfs. More likely closer to 50%.

These will be great short term (5 days to 15 week)swing etfs. It will be a bumpy ride.
I like them for my brokerage account coming june-sept but not a bet id make on my IRA
 
The other thing worth noting here is insurance company stocks.
these company typicaly rely on interest rates for business sustainability and profits. With intrest rates so low right now thay are more dependent on sales and monthy fees but once the rates go up insurance stocks follow suit
