I am repeating the comments here that I made to the YT video at its website:
At 3:32, "2020", not 1920. "Before the Accord: U.S. Monetary Policy, 1945-1951" published by the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) which is in a pdf format.
"Consumer Price Index, 1800-" published by the Minneapolis Federal Reserve
Chart at the St. Louis Fed: "Market Yield on U.S. Treasury Securities at 30-Year Constant Maturity, Quoted on an Investment Basis"
Freddie Mac website: "Mortgage Rates", click "all" to take the chart back to 1971. I started to build my current home in the fall of 1982.
Google "National Deficit U.S. Treasury Fiscal data"
Google: "Major Foreign Owners of US Debt". This is treasury data. Mainland China owned $778B in September and $772B billion in September 2024, the last month reported.
The U.S. ten year treasury IMO already reflects some supply concerns compared to 10 year bonds from other countries as of 11/22/24:
U.S. 4.41% Spain: 2.9% Germany: 2.24% France 3.04% South Korea 2.98% Singapore 2.85% Canada 3.43%
I am no longer in a capital accumulation phase. My key investment objectives are capital preservation and income generation.
I started to buy stocks in the late 1960s.
I have a balanced worldwide portfolio with a considerable allocation to cash.
I am not a financial advisor but simply an individual investor who has been managing my own money since I was a teenager. In this blog, I am acting solely as a financial journalist focusing on my own investments. The information contained in this blog is not intended to be a complete description or summary of all available data relevant to making an investment decision. Instead, I am merely expressing some of the reasons underlying the purchase or sell of securities. Nothing in this blog is intended to constitute investment or legal advice or a recommendation to buy or to sell. All investors need to perform their own due diligence before making any financial decision which requires at a minimum reading original source material available at the SEC and elsewhere. For purchases of bonds and preferred stocks, the prospectuses need to be reviewed until fully understood by the investor.
