If the treasuries keep tanking along with stocks, we'll arrive
to a whole new world of pain. This would be how Mr. market
fails the stimulus and turns it upside down.

Mark Faber is that dope now, and I agree with him. Gulp!
It's likely that a decline in treasuries will cause
a stock market rally. -g-

“I’m a little bit careful about the outlook for gold for the
rest of the year,” he said. “A countertrend rally could occur
soon where stocks would suddenly rise quite substantially.”

Faber today recommended investors short U.S. Treasuries, as a
27-year bull market likely ended in December, starting the
beginning of a long bear market. Faber also recommends selling
the Japanese yen, though the nation’s stocks may outperform
global equities in the next one or two years because they have
been depressed for so long, he said.

Japan, let's see the better part of 20 years.

Now, for the real question, IMO the people that smoke dope all saw this coming, But the real dopes have no clue as to what is actually happening. Depression 2 is lurking right around the corner!
