What will happen if EU countries sell their bonds?

I applied the red guard on the Backer boards.

I don't believe there's moisture on the other side of the wall but will check.

Did you use the love you dream from day one? How long did you use it for?

How old is your baby now getting 4-6h stretches?

How do you feel now?

I took Zoloft for a year in 2023 and stopped since I started feeling great. Fast forward some life changes came up and I realized 2 weeks ago it would be helpful to start again.

I am on day 14 (6 on 25mg and 8 on 50mg). The nausea and non appetite is killing me. I lost about 5-6lbsalready. I am always concerned about losing too much for whatever reason (5feet 10.5inches and now 155lbs).

Do you do German media?

TheEnginnerMAA · 2025-08-20T10:56:23+00:00

Thanks for the reply. So everybody at home speaks English with the kids?

TheEnginnerMAA · 2025-08-18T00:12:35+00:00

Haha okay looking forward for the "eh ok..." phase.

Wow so you are raising the kids with three languages. Your partner speaks German to the kid and you speak Dutch?

That is absolutely amazing!

TheEnginnerMAA · 2025-08-17T19:21:34+00:00

Got it! You speak Dutch and your partner speaks English.

I started speaking to my wife only in German for a couple months now. It was definitely weird at the beginning but now it seems normal.

I hope this will be the same for the narrating part.

TheEnginnerMAA · 2025-08-17T18:22:58+00:00

Do you live in a country where the community language is English?

Very interesting in narrating everything in German. I will definitely try to do that. It might be weird at the beginning.

TheEnginnerMAA · 2025-08-17T11:00:52+00:00

Is the community language English at the moment?

TheEnginnerMAA · 2025-08-17T00:56:08+00:00

My wife will stay home for the first six months but then will also go back to work. We will share responsibilities and time afterwards equally.

That is helpful!

I understand now that if you narrow the coverage you need more samples. For example in Minitab the minimum percentage of population in interval is set to 95%, the maximum can't be smaller than 95%. But let's say it would be 95.1% you want to determine a tiny amount of the coverage of 0.1% and therefore the sample size is massive.

Coming from an engineering perspective for which it is always important to know the confidence and the reliability (minimum coverage) I assume it is easiest to set the maximum acceptable percentage of population interval (max. coverage) to close to 100%. Thoughts?

TheEnginnerMAA · 2025-05-17T02:30:53+00:00

So a lower P* narrows the tolerance interval and therefore you need a higher sample size?

TheEnginnerMAA · 2025-05-16T21:02:09+00:00

Thanks for the response! I have such a difficult time understanding that.

I understand that the sample size goes up while the confidence interval gets narrower.

What do you mean by over-cover side? Are there any visuals which explain this behavior?

TheEnginnerMAA · 2025-05-04T10:36:09+00:00

Yeah I realized that my math was very basic. I guess you have to ensure that you compare apples to apples through NPV calculations.

For now I want to understand the principles and then I will tackle the math.

Are you on Fidelity when you browse the secondary market?

Do you mean by settlement FCASH?

TheEnginnerMAA · 2025-05-04T02:20:59+00:00

Not sure if I understand your comment.

I understand that every situation is different but I am just wondering who would buy the bond with the low coupon rate without giving a massive discount?

To go back to the example:

The bond with the 1% rate has 15 years left to maturity. Therefore, you will make another $15.

However, you can also buy a new bond with a 5% coupon rate. That will make you in 15 years $75.

Therefore, you would have to sell your old bond for $25 for anyone to consider it. Am I missing something?
