I’m not much of a market person, does this mean people are shifting their investments to something they think will be safe?

apearlma.bsky.social•57 days ago

as bond yields go down, that means the price of the actual bond went up, something you'd expect if they thought it was safe. So kind of the opposite. People are very nervous and given what Trump is doing, rightfully so.

Thanks, just read this and it helped. Higher demand in an assumed safer investment drives the price up and the yields go down. So, to your point, lots of concern about the market.

If I was looking for a safe investment in this context, promises from the U.S. Government would not be my first choice.

I have like 200$ in bonds.
If I sold them now would I be contributing to the instability of the us economy? I understand 200$ is absolutely nothing. But pretend it's 20 million.

I think they may go to 6%.

For someone stupid like me, what does this mean?
