Investors betting both for, with the UltraPro Short 20+ Year Treasury ETF (TTT), and against the 20 year rate with the Direxion Daily 20-Year Treasury Bear 3X ETF (TMV) had returns over 12% last week.

Direxion sector funds also had a strong week, those investors betting against an equity angle in Gold miners (the Direxion Daily Gold Miners Bear 2X Shares (DUST)).
