if one holds the index position with margin for 5 years, it will appreciate the vast majority of the time.

So you could do that by buying call options on SPY or $XSP for cheap non-callable margin. $XSP goes out to Dec'2025 and SPY to Dec'2026. Almost 2 years and almost 3 years.

In mid-Feb, the implied interest rate for the DITM $XSP call was 4%. About half of the margin rate at IB.

I guess the S&P 500 Futures could work, too?
