It's a good sign for the economy when groups tell people "Stock's shit, invest in this sure thing that pays almost nothing on your investment in the short term." Because bonds are always the thing economists recommend when there's a downturn/recession.
Maybe short term bonds are OK, but buying longer term bonds is just asking for trouble IMO, because the US govt is the source of most of the problems and seems determined to keep intentionally sabotaging stuff in an effort to keep the house of cards together another day. As opposed to just, you know, trying to fix the structural problems.
To prevent tampering of democratic 'systems', no one is able to retain enough power for long enough, to enact systemic change.
The tamper-proof nature, results in it becoming fix-proof as well.
Thus a complete reworking of the system is the only feasible course, but it is not one that anyone in existing power will ever allow.
Violent revolutions could try to replace the system of power. Granting that they are actually able to beat the entrenched establishment, what happens is that there are still treasures from the old republic up for grabs, and thus the revolutionaries are often instantly corrupt, and such corruption is considered endemic to the 'new system'.
A complete collapse, with absolutely no nuggets of gold to tempt the survivors may bring about the (relatively) cleanest new system, as long as a singular man of vision is in control and is able to set things in stone, before handing it all over to the masses to turn dog's dinner again.
“That’s not that much,” said Liz Young, head of investment strategy at SoFi, who spoke with MarketWatch after sharing a chart of the ERP on Twitter.
SoFi has never turned a profit. Their best EPS was minus five cents. Why the fuck would I care what their head of strategy thinks? If I wanted to hear from failures, I'd check stock trader Twitter and find the next dumpster fire meme stock. (spoiler alert, their next idea will be Wish stock. It's trading at less than 50 cents.)
“Knowing how certain companies make their profits, and how resilient those profits or cash flows are, will be key,” said Callie Cox, U.S. investment analyst at eToro, during a phone interview with MarketWatch.
investment analyst at eToro
The fuck do you mean? eToro is a social platform, like stock trader Zuckbook. Anyone can be an analyst there. Even I could.
It just sounds like they were desperate to find someone who believed the bullshit narrative they're pushing.
For the record, there's no point in buying TLT, you either go TIP if you think it'll be a prolonged inflationary period or something like JPST/BIL if you think there'll be a crash.
TIP holds TIPS, which are inflation linked bonds that pay a set rate plus CPI.
JPST and BIL are different forms of short-term bonds/treasury bills. JPST is a short term fund managed by JPMorgan to minimize risk, but can carry management fees, which is why I mentioned BIL, which is just a fund of very short term treasury bills (up to 3 months, IIRC). Unfortunately, it's run by Blackrock.

I've realized that this is inherent to democracy.

TLT, TIP, JPST/BIL?
TLT is a fund that holds 10Y US Bonds.
TIP holds TIPS, which are inflation linked bonds that pay a set rate plus CPI.
