Seems to me that bonds may be more volatile under floating exchange rates as nothing before 1980 made the top ten list.  One can only hope that stays true near 0% rates.  It would have been more illuminating if they had shown the top ten losses.

The real risk with bonds is that inflation expectations don't catch up with an inflationary reality.

That's why you have gold.

Out of curiosity, how many PP'ers are selling treasuries to purchase gold?

I am.

Haven't looked at the portfolio all year so that was a bit surprising to me.

I won't be selling treasuries, but my January rebalance looks to be mostly gold purchases.
