I didn't get back in last night as I thought the US would drop a bit. Wrong! I read the US news this morning and everything was negative but it went up because of Euro bank bond auctions. People are buying bonds with a 0.79% return. That is the equivalent of putting your money in a term deposit on less than 1% interest except the risk of NAB or ANZ going bust is actually less than Spain/Greece/Portugal/Ireland going bust and ANZ are currently paying me over 6%!!! Figure that one out.
Buying bonds now is a license to lose money. When rates go up their value will fall out of the sky. And what about inflation?!?! Imagine if inflation goes to 8% (not that long ago for Australia). Imagine you were holding Euro or US bonds returning 1% and inflation went to 8%.
Hotfire, what is your prediction today?
