sammaster,

This is my view. If al.com is serious about slowing down the economy, I believe that's good for the government long bond.
There's seems to be this prevailing wisdom that if he raises short rates it hurts long bonds. I disagree. Perhaps it causes some short term unwinding of leveraged positions, but ultimately, I think tighter money slows the economy, chokes off any inflation and that's good for bonds. Run that one by Mike Burke. Maybe he has a different view.
