The counter-trend reset of human spirits has dragged on longer than I thought likely. Much longer, actually. Perhaps I was a bit naive last winter projecting a rally that might retrace 38% of the crash and last a few short months. But it is notable that I am now so bearish I can taste it and it should also be ...5 days ago -

Here is another look - the big picture look - at the long term bond market situation. Recall yesterdays $TYX chart with baby and big bro inverted head & shoulders patterns. Those would project the $USB breaking the 100 month EMA line in the sand. When in doubt... INFLATE. Except that they cant do that from ...6 days ago -

Hmmm, it is silly season and the markets are levitating against my short positions. The precious metals correction that NFTRH had anticipated is well in progress. I remain long there. So, by extension I must be pretty bummed out, yeh? No freaking way. Momma always told me to have patience... and a plan. I do, ...1 week ago -

People that bought long-dated treasuries, those betting on deflation, in the first quarter of 2009, lost BIG this year. Long-term Treasury bonds are on track for their worst year in at least three decades. The Barclays 20-plus-year Treasury index has posted a total return of -20% in 2009 . ... The U.S. ...1 week ago -
Prechter & Muni Bonds

Authority: 563
Where I believe Prechter is incorrect is in his view that deflation is the dominant force. Ironically, it is the multi-decade downward slope in long term treasury yields that allows the inflators in high places to do their work. As long as bond yields give them permission, they will be political animals, playing to ...1 week ago -

Americans are increasing their personal savings and as a result the sales of imported goods are decreasing. This means that the rest of the world has fewer US dollars to spend on, among other things, US Treasuries. The problem is the shrinking US current-account gap… Zero Hedge explains: “With the entire world ...1 week ago -

FP Trading Desk —
Authority: 550
The demise of U.S. Treasuries in 2010 has been wildly exaggerated, says John Higgins, senior markets economist at Capital Economics in London. "While many people think the prices of US Treasuries are over-inflated, we think talk of a bubble is just a lot of hot air," Mr. Higgins said in a note to clients, ...1 week ago -

"Buy stocks or buy bonds?" wonders the herd. That is the way the financial establishment would like to keep it, in that neat little package.
