Yep, and 500 Trillion in interest rates swaps could make things
100 times worse than they otherwise would be. We have to watch
for potential melt (T-bond crash). Scrap recovery if that
happens. The Fed explicitly manipulates the whole yield curve
now. However, their printing actions may lead to
some panic in the long bond land. We have not seen those bond
vigilantes for some time, though. Doesn't mean they are not
there, but maybe not right now. -g-
