Inflation silently erodes your purchasing power. Understand why active trading and long-term investing are concrete solutions to protect and grow your capital.
Inflation: The Invisible Enemy of Your Savings
Every year, inflation reduces the real value of your money. One euro today will not have the same purchasing power in five years. Since 2020, inflation rates in Europe have reached levels not seen since the 1980s.
The Problem with Traditional Investments
Savings accounts often offer returns that are lower than real inflation. Your capital slowly melts away, even if the number on your bank statement doesn't change. It's an invisible but very real loss.
The Numbers Speak for Themselves
- Livret A: ~3% per year
- Real inflation: often above 4-5%
- Result: you lose purchasing power every year
Active Trading as a Solution
Active trading, when practiced with discipline and method, allows for targeting returns higher than inflation. At Axone-Capital, our goal is clear: +7% per month in active trading.
This is not blind speculation. It's a structured approach based on:
- Macro analysis: understanding global economic forces
- Technical analysis: identifying optimal entry and exit points
- Discipline: sticking to your trading plan without emotion
Long-term Investing as a Complement
For those who prefer a more passive approach, long-term investing in strategic sectors, like water with our I-Water fund, offers a target return of +7% per year, well above inflation.
