Ahh, I don't have my players scorecard handy. <g> Actually, I don't have enough memory cells left to keep track of the Who's who of the investment world. The statement "Earnings yield gap analysis" indicates a 98 percent chance stocks will perform better than bonds matched my google inquiry, and though the story was dated, I found it interesting that someone would make such a strong assertion. Poking about in ML research, I happened on some interesting numbers. First, they updated their interest rates forcast. Seeing the TNX at 3.65/3.70% Q3/Q4. Seeing the changes over the past 6 months in their forward outlook, I can only conclude these guys forecast interest rates about as well as I do. <ng> YTD YTD Price Total Returns Returns TSY -1.019% 0.095% AGCY -.62 .429 Mort -.134 .796 Corp -.02 1.42 H-yld 3.83 6.09 TIPS .72 1.44 S&P -.07 -.07 NASD 4.63 4.63 Nice to see High Yield holding up well thus far. Even in the face of headlines suggesting the second dip well under way.
