Here's my PPI conspiracy theory.
Notice the selloff in oil and copper and gold today? Small compared to the lastest rise but a start.
They are gonna delay that MFing thing until prices come down quite a bit (helped by a US$ bounce perhaps), and then revise the way they calculate it to boot (hedonically adjusted copper anyone? ggg) so that it looks nowhere near as bad as it is/was.

My understanding is that the PPI is indefinately "on hold"
Are they looking to keep treasuries in the range 4.00-4.20 for some reason?

BTW notice the DIRECT as opposed to the inverse correlation of gold and eurodollars. If I am not mistaken your logic had rising gold forcing treasuries higher. Here, once again we see falling gold and falling treasuries, as I suggested to you some time ago. What a world huh?

Let's see that JBR tonight.
Have a good weekend.
