Wow, I'll have to consider changing. I'd probably borrow to invest at those rates, after running a model to figure out how much risk to take.
Though maybe LEAPS (and for indexes, futures) are a still cheaper way to get leverage.
Edit: goodness, the rates on some of those currencies is less than the dividend yield of those countries' indexes... If I don't expect New Zealand to sink into the sea, is it stupid not to borrow NZD and invest in the NZ top 50?
