It looks like SW moved up the 'winners' chart because of "restructuring of existing assets from life and pension funds at the group."0

Gilts and corporate bonds arent a "drug" on the market. The number of sellers equals the number of buyers. Many institutional bond buyers have no choice - for example pension companies, insurance companies, fund managers whose remit requires them to hold bonds.
I personally am happy to continue holding around 15% of my portfolio in bond funds - it serves a purpose which nothing else can provide.0 -
