Exactly, we have arrived in the year 2022, and actual interest rate hikes are not to be expected even with an inflation rate of 6 percent and skyrocketing producer prices. ECB key interest rate increases will later also push down house prices.

Real interest rate hikes are not to be expected even with an inflation rate of 6 percent and exploding producer prices.

The banks see it differently, otherwise they would not already factor in future interest rate steps now. In my opinion, a few small interest rate steps will come, the inflation is simply too high for that. But who knows that in current times.

Hi,

Please don't tell my wife, otherwise she will want alpacas too

The idea is not that bad:
Alpacas are a real investment. In the fall, a breeder told me that the prices for young alpacas have quintupled in the last two years! :)

Best regards,

Andreas

A common characteristic of historical bubbles was that they picked up speed once again shortly before bursting. Then, the very last person realized that you can get super rich quickly with tulip bulbs, dotcom stocks, or real estate and jumped on the bandwagon out of fear of missing out. But: while the signs are there, I am still not sure if this is already irrational. Interest rates are still relatively low and many expect a wage-price spiral over the next few years, possibly combined with a recession.

Exactly that is what I have been thinking for about 6 months. Suddenly, portfolio advertisements are appearing on all channels.

On the other hand, the situation is unique due to the seemingly inevitable investment forms.
We will see :)

Essential common feature of all bubbles: "This time is different!" There is even a book about it: This Time Is Different: Eight Centuries of Financial Folly
