Good article: Greenspan said Fed officials have been "confounded" by the bond market's reaction to its monetary policy. Bonds have rallied as the Fed raised short-term rates, sending the yield on the 10-year Treasury note below 4 percent last week. ... "Mr. Greenspan is saying, 'We're puzzled over this,'" said Peter Cardillo, chief strategist with S.W. Bach & Co. "But that's the hint, right there: The fact that he's talking about long-term interest rates is the hint that they might start acting more aggressively. And there are inflationary pressures out there, there's no question. The weaker dollar has caused inflationary pressure, and if that continues, obviously, those would continue to build." biz.yahoo.com
