>>>But when do long term rates start heading higher in a big way?<<<

That would be good to know.

There's a long article in this morning's Wall Street Journal that says what a lot of us are saying (including Paul Volcker) that at some point foreigners will lose their appetites for U. S. Treasuries. That ought to cause a simultaneous decline of the dollar, especially against Asian currencies, and force the Treasury to pay higher interest rates to sell bonds. No politicians have the courage to raise taxes. Even with 65% of the American public against the Iraq thing, they hardly have the courage to oppose Bush on that spending. I hope we will elect a different kind of Congress in the next few years.
