Swissfag here. How do you invest in bonds when the rate of interest is in the negative and bond government and corporate bond ETFs yield negative returns?
>>
Buy eth

when interest rates are negative, they are telling you to buy something besides bonds.

fuck the swiss, btw.

t. a fellow swissfag

It is probably time to look a little further afield and pick a basket on bonds. British, American, EU, South Korean etc

Its often easier to pick up a fund that has a diverse bond portfolio.
>>
>>2110272
You don't. Invest in precious metals, crypto, food, land, anything that is not dominated by fiat.
t. swiss fag who is struggling as well.

Real Swiss here. Our flag is a square and a authentic Eidgenosse would never post that one.

How can bonds have negative yield? Nobody would buy them. Are the Swiss forcing banks to buy negative bonds?
>>
>>2111686
Yes.
>>
>>2111686
There were some bonds with negative coupons. Otherwise if the price is high enough your yield will become negative.

There are some regulatory requirements, e.g. insurance fonds have to invest X% in e.g. AAA sovereign bonds and if they happened to have a negative yield there's nothing you can do about it.

This is the best advice on here. Came to post something similar. Surely Deutche or Barclays or similar offers a fund with investments in various corporate and government bonds. Worst case, you spread or over three funds and go 70/20/10 into Developed/Emerging/Third World Shithole funds.

If only sites like Google offered a free screener...

Where are you from?
>>
>>2111686

Suppose you have an amount in cash in front of you and the rates are negative, you have three options

- buy bonds at negative rates
- hold cash at home
- loan the cash to your neighbour

The first option is worse than the second one, holding cash at home is very risky and can be costly to insure and safeguard. Besides cost and risk, holding cash is already in ways a negative return, not even mentioning all transactions would need to be cash based. Therefore negative bond rates is an incentive to loan the cash instead of holding it in a safe.

One can't expect to obtain affordable loans and get higher bond returns at the same time.

Negative interest rates can still earn a real return when the currency appreciates. And that expectation is probably priced in.
