Falling yields and falling dollars can't go hand in hand forever.

Hopes for an orderly dollar decline may prove optimistic.


At some point, the folks in Euroland are going to figure out that lending to the US at a yield of 20 basis points a month doesn't make sense with a currency that is depreciating at 30 basis points a day vs the Euro. The Treasury is taking a very big gamble here by allowing the dollar to come in so easily in the hopes that the decline will be orderly. These things have a way of being disorderly.
