Ice, it was a goofy supply/demand issue as long as only the 10 yr. note started to sport higher rates than the 30 yr. bond. but by now, the whole curve has inverted, with only the very ST rates left to play catch-up. implicit in this is the fact that the market sees the need for vigilance by the Fed - whether it'll get it is a different matter. the bubble has to be seen in the context of not only financial assets but the immense expansion in credit...huge credit demand serves to drive up rates, and it increases credit risk.
we're sitting on a debt time-bomb. 10 trillion dollars worth of short term debt need to be refinanced every six months, and the mountain is getting bigger by the day.
