That is why it is called a bond bubble.

Government(s) sponsored bond bubble.

Even if bond buyers don't get shredded on the bond market decline ( because of CB support), they will get shredded and more as their paper suffers massive losses in purchasing power.

Since 2003 ,"Bond investors" have lost close to 50% of purchasing power as measured against gold and commodities, while they happily collect 4% coupon.
