How does the fat cat investor earn a nice rate of return when interest rates for safe investment-grade securities are actually LOWER now than they were two months ago — despite the recent FED rate hike?
Give it time. Banks will have to attract new money with higher rates. It's how the "system" works.
Big Investers confuse RoR, Fed rate and Inflation.
An investment paying 6% within 9% inflation is bad.
An investment paying a lessor 2% in 1% inflation is good.
The best investment environment is lower taxes and less regulation. However on top is the rigging factor.
Many investors benefitted in the Obama years, but homeless camps sprung up so it could not last forever, because soon you too could be homeless.
That was the rigging factor. The Fed’s propped up the market, at a cost of ever increasing homelessness.
Many Big Investors vote Never Trump because they vote for no change. They should be voting for sound economics instead.
