I've seen it all now. A Danish bank charges depositors interest to hold their money. Nestlé bonds go negative yield and German bonds sell at a premium to face plus all the coupons. What does this mean for the economy? Metals?

I gotta wonder at what point it becomes worth it for someone to open a
"cash warehouse" with an offer of "we'll store you cash for half what the
banks charge you to". No lending, just a big warehouse where you store
everyone's cash for a fee and a bunch of guys with guns to gaurd it and
the whole operation still costs less than the bank fees would have been
because of economy of scale.
I know this is basically what Brinks and some others already do but I
mean for someone to mass market it to the general public.

Your typical person needs access to their money electronically. Businesses need to turn the cash. Around here it is tough to get a few thousand in cash out of a bank.
