ParticipantUS real estate is and will remain a safer and better yielding investment than local currency bonds for investors in other developed countries.
It does make more sense to do it on a retail level, not by huge funds with higher costs and who don’t get the retail buyer bonus of having a US home base, address, and emergency crash pad.

ParticipantGood memory! It was fun to post that to get people away from political discussions. Good to see site is less political now.
When Rich reset acct last fall I was shocked it had been 13 years. Back then Powayseller was screaming SELL.
Meh, I was unmotivated to sell props then and bought more after 2008 crash.

ParticipantIf negative yields persist in Europe/Japan, this will continue.
Eventually it becomes a question of how much currency risk they are wiling to take.
As long as prime markets appreciate in line with global averages, the risk can be tolerable.
Would just get interesting if the US economy would actually decouple from global in any meaningful way. Hard to see that in next decade.

ParticipantYes once Brian was removed the non stop political ranting did too. Slowly we rebuild.
And as for PS , my knock down drag out battles with her were legendary. You’d be shocked what became of her, seriously shocked.
Good on you for holding on
