Due to the mass-energy equivalence, both matter and EM radiation bend spacetime, and both are capable of forming singularities (black hole, white hole/kugelblitz). In light of this, why do photons traveling from the most distant reaches of the observable universe not lose energy due to the gravitational radiation they must emit? Furthermore, mustn't cosmic rays (e.g. protons) slow down or stop as they lose energy through the same mechanism?
