<<My reading is that the bond traders are rumor mongering about a 50 bp Fed hike (just like last week) and piling on as each take turn in selling. The equity market, OTOH, realizes that inflation is weak. >>

Are you suggesting that bond traders don't know JS and equity players are smarter than bond traders? Sheesh. I don;t know where you get these delusions. Man, you are in need of some tough love from the RealMan.

>>that inflation is weak.<<

Inflation as measured by the CPI yes. Inflation is out of control in financial asset and housing markets. It is also running in the salary market too and somehow that is not getting captured.

I agree on the 50 bp rumor. Also, F is trying to sell a boat load on debt this week...to the tune of $3B. That doesn't help. Maybe a hedge fund is about to go belly up?
