Yields will go up when Bernanke gets tossed out on his balding dome, and probably not before.

If you've got unlimited funds to buy treasuries, and have indicated the willingness to continue doing that:

1) Why would anyone sell them (until you stop buying)? and
2) Why would yields reverse and start up?

This is the basic issue. So TBT remains only for trades until the Fed stops doing what they're doing. And that does not look to happen for a while (in time if not in price but probably both).
