The interest rates on credit are very favorable when considering inflation. Entities with significant medium to long term debt can be attractive right now.

On a personal note, if you have a mortgage at 3% and inflation is 6%, then you are generating value and free to use the money you do have for stuff like investment properties or securities.

It depends on what terms you are getting but it is important to be clear that this is a bet on the Fed not raising rates, and I would argue that you should own linkers if you want to do this bet instead.

Everything makes perfect sense when the risk-free rate is -5%. If the Fed does hike late and the risk-free rate has to move to 5% then your debt will start looking like a noose.

Yeah, things can change. As a startup, I would hope the time horizon would be short enough that acquisition or profitability happens first.
