@cortisquared Loin d’être en complet désaccord avec vous sur la cherté de l’immobilier en France, mais vous ne pouvez pas comparer un rendement de 3% réel (immo) avec un rendement de 3% nominal (compte a titre).
@FIREvLondon Yes but you are missing out on the tax advantage of owning the gilt directly (you are only paying taxes on the coupon, the roll-up is tax free).
@cortisquared Je ne parle même pas du fait que de faire un all-in sur sa résidence, c’est pas vraiment une bonne idée sur le long terme (pas de compounding).
@Finumus1@IronEconomist Also given the shape of the bond curve and the ERP at a 20y low, it wouldn’t borrow short term to buy stocks and LT bonds (but what do I know)
@IronEconomist@Finumus1 I understand holding it now as a short term play (recession, …) but i think holding any long duration nominal gbp-denominated asset is a dangerous game.
@IronEconomist@Finumus1 With debt/gdp being > 100%, do you think there is any chance than holding a 25y gilt to maturity will give a positive return in real terms?
@pdragoumis@Finumus1 2.3% real rate is a pretty big deal when your debt/gbp is > 100%. When all the debt rolls, you need your gdp to grow 2.3%+ in real terms just to cover your debt interest payments. Good luck with that.
