This CI issue really hits the core of our discussion here lately. In support of my inflationary argument, the 10 UST/Fed funds yield spread chart on page six is illustrative, showing this particular spread at 25 year highs in that 3.25-3.40% area. Would seem that a "breakout" above 3.50% would send an undeniable inflation, big rate increase signal, although I feel 3.30% is signal enough. A more normalized Fed Funds rate at this point would be about 2.0% IMO, but even that will be behind the curve.

Ditto the 5 USN less 5 TIPS (page seven): 2.3% is at the high end, signaling much higher inflationary expectations. It's only going to get worse.
