If you're betting on a crash soon, why not just hedge your existing positions on long dated PUT options? That's what they are for , insurance.
As far as OP is concerned, there's not much point into cashing everything if the timescale is greater than 5+ years for needing any of it. Trying to time the market is just a fools game, consistent investments in the indexes always works out in your favor long term.
Regarding interest rates, .35% is pretty poor, just off the top of my head Marcus is over 1%.
- ajuc 6y agoIf you bet on a huge crash then your PUTs will lose the value anyway. So what if they give you 50% profit when the inflation is 1000%.
- Trias11 6y agoI’d buy gold or crypto instead. Stock market can keep going up due to inflation even if everything is crap and politically manipulated. Gold is a real indicator and crypto is icing on a cake
- overcast 6y agoA huge crash will net you much more than 50% profit, you can pull that any day of the week for the last 4 months with the market volatility.
