Thanks. I was having trouble understanding how the cost of capital has gone up. Very difficult to understand for an everyday consumer like myself.

It's supply and demand .... why dont you know that ??? There just isn't the money about to buy all the bonds so there is an excess of bonds and a shortage of cash the price of the bonds drop😅 Very very simple I am not saying there is a massive shortage of cash like a liquidity crises but definitely not a match for the avalanche of bonds coming to market. Now why is this ? Well two things come to mind A big outflow of cash from the bond market as the boomers retire.... no job , no sash to stoff the 401k And the government has stoped printing money so there is less of it about... I have savings and all this is finely good for me I and people like me have been abused for decades now because the capital I worked for was made worthless by the government diluting it ...... and allowing the supper ritch to borrow for nothing. The long bond w a s 17% under Ronald Reagan back in the 80s And it was in the 7% range in the 90s Now all this fuss over 5%😅😅😅 Just shut up and live within your means
