I can't figure out why McCulley would advocate inflationist policies as a bond manager. I would think a bond manager is most concerned with earning a safe, real after-tax return on capital.

I frankly think Pimco is a bunch of crooks and thieves. They have high fees and give bad advice. I remember when fed funds was at 1% and the 5 yr. treasury at 3%, Bill Gross was advocating the purchase of 5 yr. treasuries and rolling down the maturity curve providing a boost to returns.

2 years later, those 5 yr. treasuries at 3% look like a pretty damn bad investment.
