Hedging against the decline of the EU/euro?
Hello everyone,
I am a fan of Andreas Beck (see interviews with him on YouTube).
He invests his cash and crash reserves in Swiss government bonds, among other things.
The advantage: the currency is the Swiss franc (solid currency) and it also pays a bit of interest.
My investment case:
- The EU will soon have a new Greece problem, but this time with a completely different house number: France
- In my view, reforms in France are virtually impossible. Later retirement due to demographics and the streets are already burning
- In addition, there is an incentive system to exploit DE's stupidity (or rather its financial solidity). Others go into debt and DE will pay/be liable for it
For me this means: Bearish Euro. Save yourself who can.
I find US T-bills quite interesting, but to be fair, the US also has problems. In my view, Switzerland is the island of bliss :)
But now the question of all questions arises:
How can I invest in Swiss government bonds?
Even via CapTrader I haven't found anything (although TWS is also creepy from a UX point of view, maybe I just didn't find it).
Trade Republic offers a few bonds, e.g. Nestle. But it's not so failsafe.
According to my research, there is a money market ETF for it $CSBGC3 but it is probably only tradable in Switzerland?
P.S. I am already invested in alternatives such as $BTC (-1.55%) I am already invested, but in my opinion it is too volatile for a crash reserve. $GOLD (-0.26%) does not yield any interest.
Now I am looking for
- Opportunities to invest in Swiss government bonds & the Swiss franc
- If that doesn't work: Do you have other hedging ideas against the euro's decline?
Looking forward to your opinions!
