Please help me to make sense of these apparent disparities:
T bonds are busting out.
The Yen is ominously strengthening (something the Japanese banks can ill afford and arguably the biggest systemic risk facing the whole house of cards right now, IMO)
(http://quotes.ino.com/chart/?s=CME_JYH3&v=d3)
US custody holdings are surging.
The US dollar is weakening


The answer is obvious, the Beardstown Ladies are committing all their cash, home equity lines of credit, butter 'n egg money, uncashed US Savings Bonds, rebates for new Oldsmobile purchases, as well as next months CrumbCake fund to buy T-Bills. "Caysh" on the Sideline, as it were....<G>
