How do you guys feel about bond funds now that there are rumours of rate hikes?

I finally sold off the rest of my bond funds today and am now largely liquid. These funds did about 22% for me over the last 18 months, but they are beginning to lose value. How bad will bond funds slip?
you sold?
well, you sold them to me, I was buying all week long.

as for their slips, I think we had the worst drop for this particular move and now will see some recovery.

I don't see rates moving more than 1 % on the next leg and this is already priced in by the market.
