Short Bond Etf Is It Too Late To Buy Short Term Bonds?

Is it too late to buy short term bonds? - short bond etf

I think Bond ETF (XSB). I missed the opportunity to purchase the bonds, a few months ago when the interest rate the federal government remains high, and now the interest rate the Fed is very weak and little to lose. In addition, the stock market "May is rising," that may reduce the prices of bonds.

Should I buy bonds or stocks? I am a pensioner.

Thank you for your thoughts.
