Stephan, no but it's surely higher! Nevertheless, money is a lot more profitable in a diversified bond fund yielding 10% than in a stock fund yielding -30% (like the Merrill Lynch Growth Fund that I ditched out of my 401k). In my view, the interest rate muzzle will keep the consumer from spending too much, which will keep corporate profits in a strait jacket. Lower profits and higher rates are a recipe for a stock market headed sideways at best.
