This is something I cannot make sense out of. So, have at it.

The two biggest reasons are that they have to hold them because of government regulations or because they think the economy is turning south and it is a safe place to put money to mitigate loss.

And if cash is outlawed....as is happening in Europe.

It was really more done in Japan and parts of Europe to try to keep people from parking their money in banks for very long. Banks park their money in central banks, so negative interest tries to shake the money back into circulation. Both places risk stagflation.

Why Would Anyone Buy Negative Interest Rate Bonds? -- The Motley Fool
...you're asking why do people do this, because they are doing it. And to try to answer the question briefly here, as we close, the answer is that traditionally, bonds are kind of an offset to the stock market. The reason some people think you should be diversified into bonds is because when stocks go down, bonds often don't. And so if you are a large asset manager, and you're trying to park lots of cash different ways and keep yourself safe and balanced, then you have appreciated having something that protects you in the one out of three years where the stock market loses value.

Japan is already in stagnation and parts of Europe as well. A decent case can be made that parts of China are too. If Trump can get most of his agenda enacted the US may missout on this problem.
I want degrowth. American "prosperity" is an illusion created by a hyper-inflated stock market. As for Cuba, no luck. Trump has greatly restricted people's ability to go there/—-/ You want stagnation? Move to Cuba and leave us the fu*k alone to prosper.

I support stagnation. In fact, I support purposeful, managed degrowth. America consumes too much. The pursuit of more dollars to pay for too much is ruining people's psyche.

The only reason I could see would be of the economy was going into recession and they were losing less than other things, in other words being relatively safe.This is something I cannot make sense out of. So, have at it.

Irony is ironic. You couldn't post here on the interwebs without America's pursuit of innovation and growth. If you want to live a Bronze Age lifestyle, do it yourself and leave the rest of us alone.

How unimaginative of you. I'm pretty sure you could just walk across the Venezuelan border and live in the Utopia you desire.

Irony is ironic. That we have an internet just creates even more opportunity for managed degrowth. Look at how Amazon is destroying bricks and mortar stores. Telemarketers and tech support come to you from India. Phone sex operators laid the groundwork for people working from home. DO that on a larger scale, and we can build fewer highways.

Venezuela is not next door to Virginia.
