As Jacob Astor joked as the Titanic went down "if it's not
nailed down to the floor, you can throw it overboard...

but I suspect it will not help"

Bonds


What is the take if $TNX breaks 3.95%.

My view is that if bonds (10Y & 30Y) break out (yields break down) that the markets are pricing in a deflationary scenario for the US.

(I also believe that commodities are in a bull market, but that this will not lead to inflation, as a significant majority of commodities have cut back supply, formed mergers, over the last 2 years)

Ideas any one?

I could actually see continuous waves of mortgage re-financing thus keeping the housing bubble in the air should yields break down even more

This is my take as I believe that the US-2000 is Japan-1989 in bigger size and without the savings ratio, to allow years of financial mismanagment.
They can still try and invest Social Security into the stock market to prolong things
