Every correction in the stock market starts with a meltdown in corporate bond spreads. Just look at the charts of bond funds vs the stock indexes if you don't believe me.


dude,
i was a bond guy back on Wall Street....
i think along the way here in SI, i had mentioned that i was a muni bond and treasury futures trader for a number of years at Morgan Stanley. then into swaps and derivatives, with a final stand in stock lending. before MS, I worked in Foreign Exchange at Bankers Trust..

so, you're preaching to the wrong fellow.

also! my wife's a credit guru....

Paul

you sound dumb and dumber (good thing there's no rule here like on the Apple thread).

I don't believe anyone who says "every" and "always" the way you do:

Every correction in the stock market starts with a meltdown in corporate bond spreads. Just look at the charts of bond funds vs the stock indexes if you don't believe me.

...

then throw in an "all" or two and a couple of "always". As in

it wiped out all of the disposable income of homeowners in the US.

and

The excitement and success of the stock market is always the best place to outperform inflation.

and

The last correction wiped out all the technology companies, now we are wiping out all the financial institutions.
