Jim - I understand treasuries less than metals (if this was possible <vbg>). Too many diverging data for my brain cell to handle. If the Dollar would keep weakening, this could see selling in the treasuries = higher yields. If the foreigners do own that large chunk of US debt (I've have seen $9 trillion this week - lost the link - out of $31 tril total world GDP), these foreigners have no way to go to trade their debt papers but the Dollar. Sustaining the Dollar, and the treasuries = yields down. If the markets keep weakening, again, monies could rotate into treasuries = yields down. Really dunno.
