Why arnt you buying US bonds?
>>540939955why would i want 5.3% when the rate of inflation (as measured by someone who doesn't wear a yarmulke) is 5.3%?
>>540939955the irony of stuff like this is the raising rates fuck over fixed-income investor boomers too.because bonds take too long to mature and as I said above, if you need to liquidate them, you have to take a discount. You still make way more money holding any generic S&P 500 tracking investment as well.
>>540939955As someone who has an elementary understanding of bonds>low-yield=good times>high-yield=bad timesCan anyone give me a QRD on what percentage point we need to hit for the fun stuff to start happening?
>>540940440yield inversion happened multiple times, who knows anymore. it's basically uncharted waters as powerful talmudry is hellbent on propping up an """economy""" that is nothing but mulattoe teenagers tapping sponsored content on dey foams and the circular data center/GPU/LLM economy willing a quadrillion dollars into existence.
>>540940440fun things are already happening. the war in Iran was meant to drive bonds down. it failed.
>>540939955Bonds this high without GFC. Grim. Vote trump.
>>540940440also, the meeting between Putin and Trump a year ago was meant to "soften Putin" and make him make concessions so Russia will agree to a ceasfire. that war is the main reason why your bonds are so high. so you see, Russia is in fact winning that war. and not against Ukraine, but against you and all your allies.
>>540941069Cope lol
>>540939955no trust in the us government, i put my money on the collapse of the usa instead.
>>540940844Why would institutions be buying bonds when the supply of currency and debt owed has went hyperbolic in the past decade?>>540940986You’re right I should have said in the US. Somehow the only thing that’s been different here is slightly higher gas prices and overall general goods cost rising here and there. It feels like there’s something very spooky hanging over our heads at the moment.
>>540941116glownigger madyou can cry as much as you want, that won't make you start winning wars and bring bonds down
>>540941223in this case: wait for oil to become slightly more expensive and when companies start to go bankrupt and shelves are emptythere is no number at which point it would start happening. it will just keep getting worse slowly until it all breaks and then everything collapses overnight
>>540941335Are you familiar with the game Jenga? We are balanced on one block right now
>>540941450pretty much, but your jenga tower is absolutely massive
>>540941274Hahahahahaha muh russia you faggot shill
>>540941577I too am laughing every time I see any financial chart, like the one in OP
>>540939955>small hat tribe refuses to price above inflation Rather just burn my money
OH NO NO NO
>>540941958can borrow cheaper here as well on 2y yields.
