Short bonds, not stocks, amid money printing
The author argues that shorting bonds is preferable to shorting stocks because equities are 'literally immortal' and only benefit from an era of money printing and above-target inflation. The causal mechanism is that persistent inflation and monetary expansion erode fixed-income returns while supporting nominal equity values. The stated horizon is generational ('any day of the century'), and the main risk is that inflation cools or real yields rise, which would hurt the short-bond thesis.
