Hi everyone,
I understand when one talks about Equity Premium one is talking about
risk free investments, but what type of conservative investment is that
anyway?
Is it bonds, or maney market funds, or ...?
Wishing you all a Happy 207

U.S. government T-bills.

Jeremy Siegel and Robert Shiller consider U.S. gov't inflation-protected
bonds to be the only risk-free investment.

That would seem to assume the political stability of the U. S.
government. Not a bad assumption over the last 140 years, but not
necessarily good for the next 140 (or even the next 40).

What political instability are you anticipating. A coup? Keeping this in
financial planning, what political instability do think in the realm of
reality would threaten US Gov't inflation-protected securities?
