You got that one right! Bond investors usually don't like to accept yields below the rate of inflation. So, the government changes how it measures inflation. As a complete surprise, inflation comes out lower than in its previous measurements -g- I think investors found some way to get higher yields, maybe through the 300-500 Trillion notional value interest rates derivatives market. But that probably erodes the stability if foreign central banks decide to pull out.
