Gold ist wohl mal wieder der sichere Hafen in diesen unruhigen Zeiten. Es wird immer wieder Nachrichten geben die den Anleger verunsichern. Dann wird abverkauft was das Zeug hergibt, und wer da nicht aufgepasst hat, so wie ich, der schaut in die Röhre. Banken stehen irgendwie immer im Focus, wo soviel Geld bewegt wird wird auch viel manipuliert, gelogen und betrogen.

LARRY FINK'S LETTER TO CEOS:
The Power of Capitalism

Stakeholder capitalism is not about politics. It is not a social or ideological agenda. It is not “woke.” It is capitalism, driven by mutually beneficial relationships between you and the employees, customers, suppliers, and communities your company relies on to prosper. This is the power of capitalism.

It is quite possible that even if the Fed hikes rates more, notes and bonds may fall in yield. Bond investors are looking ahead and realizing the higher the Fed goes, the more crippling the effects on the economy and inflation.
