Well, the chart you pull up shows interest rates trending lower again in the last two months. Here's the Fed publication I was referring to. If you enlarge the chart on the first page, it is quite startling. stls.frb.org The total return on inflation-adjusted bonds has been 12.48% for the past year in the TIAA fund--the highest of all the funds: tiaa-cref.org The year-to-date is even more impressive in comparison with other assets. As I think I indicated, the correlation between the yields and the NASDAQ may be purely concidental. But I do think that on the whole the NASDAQ is still likely to drop a great deal. Not many of the stocks are very good values and a great many are terribly overvalued according to any historically valid way of measuring value.
