Leveraged investment owners: People who deserve the fallout from the risk from which they initially profited.
There's dumb leverage and then there's smart leverage. We no longer live in a cash economy and without debt businesses cannot expand, buy capital equipment or hire people. No one says that putting your life savings into junk bonds is smart but without some risk we'd be nowhere in terms of technological advancements.
Leverage is just a synonym for borrowed money.
There are very few business with 0 debt.
The problem is “highly levraged’ when easy money disappears. If the tightening occurs with a downturn, there will be a problem.
Keep in mind this is the Boston Globe..... whore spawn of the NY Times. They see the only possible way to win power is to destroy the economy. The electorate must be convinced we are doomed.
The Globe and siblings are doomed and have severe mortal illness.
