And a comment:
The people buying this do not care that there is a risk of default. The only default possible on US bonds is through inflation. The people buying this are printing money to buy it. It cost them nothing to buy what amounts to a rent. They are the inflaters. They will keep buying until Dow 100,000. Then they might buy stocks.

US treasuries headed for junk bond status? You don't wanna be the last person standing when the music stops there (i.e, when the Fed stops buying 'em). That's supposed to be China's role, anyway......Russ W. used to call treasuries "Old Maid Cards", that monniker fits perfectly right about now.
