J,

<< This market is sick to be bid up over a .1 miss on cpi. >>
IMHO, it was to a large degree technical. The bonds were testing resistance (suport on % - 50DMA, etc), and then story comes that Buffet is a big buyer. Very astute timig, it was known he bot for a couple of weeks, but the story hits the mass media just as resistance is tested. Emboldened buls buy, scared shorts cover, the rest is history. A day or two later people ask self - why the hell did I buy?
