wednesday1 Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 Stock market has risen 6% since January. It always does when Tories are in power. It rose 430% between 1984 and 1997. How's it out there in France Puissguin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vague_Boy Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 Joking aside, bonds if you have enough money to start with. More likely to get 5% which is more than an isa. The interest paid on bonds is taxible, unlike an ISA. And 5% is barely keeping pace with (real) inflation. You'd be lucky to stand still. 5% after the tax is deducted? You'd be losing money. Bond Apocalypse approaching fast! Last week even the Bank of America has issued a statement saying that bond market, currently at 300 year extreme (!) is ready to go through a 1994 type crash. Yields are going to spike higher, as governments will seek to finance their spending via any means possible. And that is dangerous to the market as a whole (worldwide!)
