>>are foreigners fleeing just stocks and putting some money in perceived safety of bonds and repatriating the rest?>> yes, that is my perception, and one that will cause yet more pain I fear, although not only foreigners.Investors in general are moving into US treasuries as their "safety plan". Do you think any of the retail financial advisors at any of the investment banks trust their analysts now? Bonds look "safe" in comparison. Not only will yields rise, but with the falling currency the whammy will intensify rapidly.
