Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......

I have to admit I'm looking for a trade here, but as always, cheap can get cheaper.

global frenzy for positive yield
And as the dollar soars, so does the real yield on bonds denominated in dollars. That may not surprise everyone, but few can support a claim of predicting this a few years ago.

It's always been about bonds. I wonder what these 1%ers from around the world are going to do when the US debt load requires a few more $trillion be created as more and more of our unfunded liabilities kick in?
Positive yield is one thing. Real interest rates are something else. Gold is rising in every one of these countries in which the currency is crashing. Don't think that the dollar is going to be immune from the currency wars.
I knew it would happen.

Since 2007 at least, it's always been about debt of all kinds and leverage in derivatives.

Better if we could return to an open market on debt instruments.

Though all are free to trade, the prices are hugely influenced by coordinated international central bank buying. 60,000,000,000 euro per month is the current figure. Not sure if Japan is still in the game but theirs and the US purchases were in the same range.
Germans 10 years are now at about .30 percent. Risky Italian and Spanish bonds are under 2%.
Greece banks got hammered the other day as a default is on the horizon. Banks hold substantial positions on sovereign debt.
Canary in the coal mine? Quite likely
Damn Feds.

Collusion is wonderful, especially for the Wall Street slime. And when the party busts, we can all get our checkbooks handy.....again!
There are many players other than the Fed involved in the Bond market and believe it or not, as whole they decide what long term rates will be, much more than the fed.
If Foreign governments, International buyers, hedge funds and the deep pockets decide to buy or sell long bonds, there is not much the Fed can do in limiting the effect on rates.
This is nothing new.

Please reread my response.

Speaks well of global economic strength.
