I meant that the author compared the long-term returns of stocks vs long-term bonds. And the conclusion was that returns were nearly a wash. And this applied over holding periods up to 100 years.What are you comparing to?
Not over 10-years. The author suggests much longer time periods such as 50 or 100 years. But I’m concerned this only applies to long-term bonds.
There are no 50 or 100 year bonds anymore; as far as I know, nobody is issuing perps these days.
My question is about the implications for short-intermediate term bonds. My guess is that stocks are expected to drastically outperform those.
