I'm not so sure that priming the pump is controlling the moves in interest rates. I'm operating under the belief that there is underlying weakness, and therefore selling, in bonds. The sellers are driving rates higher. I don't think the fed can counter that mind set with lower rates. Therefore, new bond issues will only be able to draw those sellers to buy back with higher rates, IMO.
