Indeed. In my line of work, I hear a lot of investors putting money into things like Emerging Market Debt. A lot of it has to do with future projections on what these investments will yield (or what they think will yield). What I think this means is they're basically spending money on debt investments in the hopes of gaining something out of it in the future. It's the same is if you would invest in Equities or Fixed Income, except they have a negative value rather than a positive one. I could be wrong, but I'm sure Saintess would be able to explain this better.
