Fixed-maturity funds? Yeah, they're sitting on $260 billion now. Supposed to be the "safe" play. But here's the twist—everyone's hunting for returns, and that hunt is dragging portfolios into sketchy territory. Risk creep is real when yield gets scarce.

In plain terms, it means there's too much money with nowhere to put it, so they have to take a gamble, right?

The spread of risk is indeed outrageous; they want to gamble for returns on 26 billion dollars, and the safety cushion has long been breached.

In plain terms, it means starting to buy randomly without any returns; how could the risks not rise? 26 billion just sitting there pretending to be safe, it's funny.

It's ironic that in the end, you still have to gamble on the safety card.

Security products can also be fun, that's the magic of the market.

The spread of risk... I've seen through this long ago, what safety is there with 26 billion still in place?

The thing about risk creeping is, to put it simply, being forced into it. Who wouldn't want stability without returns? The problem is that stable things can't make money at all now, so, well, we can only jump into the fire pit.

26 billion, safe my ass, aren't they all just gambling on high returns...
