I wish I could borrow 3-month US$ at 1.2%
this was the basis of the YEN CARRY TRADE all thru 1990's
borrowed Japanese money, invested in USTBonds
that carry trade wave is over

the next carry trade is the Dollar to Gold trade
borrow 3-mo US$ at 1.2%, invest in Gold
if with futures leverage, huge profits
it has begun, but will accelerate on a vast basis
