@ipso facto re your: “but longer term, bonds get killed by inflation and the higher interest rates it causes.’

You are exactly right, and logical, according to the past 1968 to 1982, 5% to 21% to protect the US Dollar that was falling after the gold backing depeg in 1971. The Dollar had a reputation as being as good as gold before 1971, so they logically wanted to restore the Dollars status and made it STRONGER. Remember the Strong Dollar Policy?? To make imports (and wages) cheaper to curb inflation numbers of the 1970s??

These days are very very very very different. The “US Dollar” has morphed into Stocks Bonds and Real Estate and THAT is what they are trying to protect, the new strange “unit of account” Stocks Bonds and Real Estate. If they FAIL? To support and maintain and prop up Stocks Bonds and Real Estate? And they FALL in value re paper USD with higher rates?

The paper USD would gain enormous value versus Stocks Bonds and Real Estate. It would be a contraction in the new modern fake “US Money Supply” and many people would feel poor, like we do during corrections. And a massive deflation would NOT hurt Gold at all, more than likely drive it higher out of necessity to restore the entire economy back to normal, real honest money.

They say all massive inflations’ end in deflation. We have had massive inflation after 1970 when new cars were $2500 and now $50,000, and a US Dopey/Dollar today is equal to 4 slices of bread.

What do you think of this crazy view of mine?
