yeah but taking a 30 year bet on currency rates and inflation is inherently very risky

with that said if you look at USD vs thirdie currencies over the last 15 years they have lost somewhere between 2x - 5x
so if you just held cash dollars from 2008 to today you would have been better off than investing in their stock market or buying real estate in their capitals in terms of purchasing power

so t-bills are USD cash + 5% yield - taxes and if the future is anything like the past it seems like an excellent opportunity

Sorry, I was at work and couldn't reply in time.
Here's how the 4 week works:
The interest is back figured from the competitive bid. The big players bid on a discount price. In this case it was $99.59 (rounded to the nearest cent.)
You give your broker or Treasury direct $100. You immediately get back 41 cents. You get $100 in four weeks. This is the equivalent of 5.4%apy.
It's not perfect, but it has two advantages. You won't lose money, and you get your interest up front.
I bought 1000 last night. I got a whole $410 to tie up a hundred grand for a month. Allegedly you won't lose much of you have to emergency sell them, unlike CDs.
This is still better than gold, silver, CDs, or the bank. With the state of the economy, there's not much safe and 5%+ is way better than nothing.

All it takes is for the fed to issue a trillion dollars and buy the equivalent amount of U.S. Treasury bonds with it. Guess whom the U.S. government will pay that money back? The Fed. The Fed and the Treasury have the means to de-monetize the entire U.S. economy thus driving inflation into deflation zone. But guess what, even if the inflation is sky high in the U.S. (which is almost impossible unless the cost of imports outpaces domestic production and delivery costs), the rest of the world still has a high demand for U.S. dollars. No matter how broke you think you are, the rest of the world is more broke.

People choosing Treasury Bills over housing are retarded.

All of the treasury gains are taxed, so the 4.7% rate is effectively a 3.5% rate.

From 1980-2011 (housing crash low), the average rate of home price growth was 4.7% per year This doesn't include the rent collected over the time. Rent is roughly 7% of a home's value per year (varies). Pre-Tax you are making 11.7% in a bad year.

>but muh property taxes

They are 1% and you get to deduct them

>but muh maintenance/repairs

Budget $2000/year, they're also tax deductable.

So now you're down to maybe 10% ROI. But you get to deduct property taxes, maintenance, and repairs, AND 3.6% of your home's value each year via depreciation.

Once you have 250k in gains, simply make the rental your primary residence for 2 years, and you can sell it tax free.

A 40 year old with 10M in assets can put this into T-bonds, and get $477k per year until he hits 70. Risk free and taxed at the lowest possible bracket you can for income at that level. Crazy.

It’s a decent deal but over 30 years? Sp500 has historically done 10 percent over that long of a time frame. It only seems worth it when you have millions, not tens of thousands.

Just to help you in the future you take the percentage and turn it into a decimal. 4.7% is the same at .047. You then multiply that by your 20k to get the answer

"Quantitave easing" is directly used to fight deflation, you fucking subhuman insect
Because printing money is inflationary. Now fuck off, you idiotic cunt

>A policy termed "quantitative easing" was first used by the Bank of Japan (BoJ) to fight domestic deflation in the early 2000s.
>QE of at least €1.1 trillion. Mario Draghi announced the programme would continue: "until we see a continued adjustment in the path of inflation", referring to the ECB's need to combat the growing threat of deflation across the eurozone in early 2015.
>In the Eurozone, studies have shown that QE successfully averted deflationary spirals in 2013–2014
>Ben Bernanke remarked in 2002 that the US government had a technology called the printing press (or, today, its electronic equivalent), so that if rates reached zero and deflation threatened, the government could always act to ensure deflation was prevented.

Not completely true. In the early 2000s the US gov canceled and paid off early those high rate bonds. I can't remember where I read about it but it was on a .gov site.

Checked. The implications are that the banks are now NOT required to hold back any of the cash that is deposited with them. When we had a limit of 10% minimum reserve rate, this meant that 10% of all cash taken in was reserved in case anyone wanted to make a withdraw. This is to try and prevent a run on the banks. Now, they are not required to keep any cash on hand so when they inevitably lend out all of their money, they will not be able to give out any money to depositors who attempt to withdraw their money from the bank. You can imagine what kind of chaos this will cause.

Not only is the prospect of banks failing more often a real possibility. Banks now will lend out every dollar they have and they can lend that money to other banks. Those banks with their newly lent dollars can lend it out to more banks. Gee, look at all these new dollars that are created when we keep lending out the same dollars.

This process is how the Federal Reserve creates more dollars out of thin air and why inflation is so high, because there are more dollars on paper than there are actually printed by the Treasury.

I buy mostly 6month - 12 month notes. Fun fact, most brokerages will allow you to use the treasuries as collateral for trading, so if you have $100k and you buy $100k in treasuries, they'll still credit your trading account as if you have $100k in cash so you can still trade as if you held all cash. If you overnight stocks you'll have to pay borrow fees I'm pretty sure, but if you intraday trade it's not an issue. So it's pretty much free yield.

No. It’s a topic where people presumably have real money at stake. Have a clue what you’re talking about

Money market funds invest in very short-term debt - like maturing in less than a year - not 30-year Treasurys.

Sofi is paying 4.5% on their savings.

There are some high-yield savings accounts paying 5% interest at the moment. UFB Direct, Popular Direct, and Newtek Bank offer 5.25%.

unless you need the liquidity, just buy t-bills instead and make more. I do a 3 month ladder.

>>56266505
That's reasonable. And you don't have to pay state taxes with T-bills.

Bank regulations incentives buying government bonds, they can assume full face value for them on their balance sheet when normally they have to assume a 20% decrease or some shit like that.

how does this even happen? Did they borrow the money which got liquidated after a certain price was reached?

>> No.56268365

>>56268278
no, there's two parts 1) banks don't hold your cash they hold assets and make loans. the liquidity/health of a bank is judged by its balance sheet ie assets and loans vs deposits. when their assets decline significantly in value it calls into question how much of their deposits they can really back 2) they may need to borrow money *against* their bond holdings which are now extremely depreciated

they bought long dated treasuries and then interest rates went up, so the market value of their bonds went down a lot

however US banks don't need to record bond market losses on their balance sheet, so some banks kept these losses hidden and kept operating until they made too many losses and couldn't meet withdrawals

>> No.56268595

>>56268557
yes but how does that lead to bankruptcy? A one or two percent increase in yield cannot lead to a 90% reduction in the bond price? or does bankruptcy mean that the bank can't cover at least 100% of deposits?

>> No.56268670

>>56268595
look at TLT to see what happened to the market value of long term treasuries.
they had a big mismatch between assets and liabilities and then experienced a bank run. once they realised they couldn't meet the withdrawal requests with their liquid assets they declared bankruptcy.

Maybe. However there are some rich anons who come here for the lols. For example, during the Covid panic in 2021, some anon named Anthony was shorting the SPY with some big bets and posting his balance in real time. Dude made like 2.7M in a week. No way he was faking it either. Lord klnows what he is doing now.
