Monsieur Chix on a Stix- Thx for that info. I've been focusing on longer-term rates as to when to re-fi. I'll keep an eye on the 10 yr. -Darin

Very good, JW, thanks. Home mortgage rates are more closely linked to the 10-year Treasury under the assumption that most people don't live in the same home for 30 years. And, yes, a lot of banker people say its the 30-year Treasury, and, yes, they're wrong. Good synopsis. Thank you, sir. PB

JW, would appreciate any thoughts you may have on this. Thanks. This comes from the clown thread.

This metal is seen as a " stand-alone" asset that is not dependent on any single government or central bank to establish its value." it's not an empty promise...it is what it is. MZM is now growing at nearly 28% annualized, as the greatest money printing orgy of all time has commenced in a futile attempt to stop the credit/asset collapse...we're firmly in banana republic territory, with only the ECB standing out as having at least a LITTLE bit of credibility left. trust in the CBs and the fiat system is imo going to be shattered...they're going completely overboard now, like maniacs.
