Top FRA Bull/Bear Pitches

The best Bull and Bear pitches based on recency and number of recommendations.

TPFrenzy (51.09)
Submitted March 10, 2011

Excellent exposure to rising interest rates, as FRA targets 80% floating-rate instruments. Sports a lower expense ratio (~1.45%) and lower leverage (~15%) than many of its peers.
