Hi Steve,..Re:.The 10 year bond is rapidly becoming the new benchmark. BTW, most people don't know this, but the 10 year bond is what your mortgage rate is pegged to. It's NOT the 30 year.

You're right! Look at the yield curve and the 2 year and the 10 year TIP or inflation indexed. Funny looking yield curve. <g>

bloomberg.com

Eventually, these rising rates are going to pinch expansion and earnings, and that will keep prices down.

Yep! <g>

what throws a fly into the ointment is that some of these companies are not going to the debt market for financing, but rather using equity (like the money they get from their rising stock).

What about issuing new shares for purposes of expansion or debt payoff? How is that financed?

Banks (prime rate adjust) jumped on the fed funds rate increase pretty quickly yesterday. (within seconds <g>)

Cheers,

Lee
