As part of a diversification strategy away from 100% precious metals, I am interested in the potential opportunity that shorting the bond market may offer, but wanted to get a few opinions first...
My question is this:
If, as some seem to suggest, a return to some form of gold standard is ultimately likely, what would be the effect on pre-existing bonds?
Would there be any way these could be migrated over to a newly gold-backed currency?
Or would that not be possible / desireable?
Many thanks...
