The 5 year Treasury Old Maid Card is the heroin of choice for the BOJ in their mercantilistic currency interventions. The Asians, and OPEC are very active right now (they have to be as the trade gap is swelling by billions of dollars), with the offshore Caribbean based speculative hedge funds in tow playing ticks. These really are not natural or private buyers who buy for "investment". What real buyer would want a five year USD Treasury yielding 3.3%, with inflation in the mid single difits (or higher)? Their motive is to effect or intervene, so you continue to see massive market distortions being played out
