When Bill Gross from PIMCO states he's mostly out of Treasuries, its makes you wonder who are the bond vigilantes? IMO PIMCO, the world largest bond fund has already left the building, then you have to question who are the current bond vigilantes? I suspect, they are the foreign governments like China and they've made their deal with devil already. The banks got their sweat heart deal and will keep quiet too. JMHO

Not going to happen in our lifetime. If it was, it would have happened at the peak of the ratio of borrowing:revenue. That peak has already passed and revenue is growing faster than borrowing (both at a public and at a private level). Lots of things discussed that are constipating, and also poor as an investment strategy. For example, hyperinflation, US default, muni crisis. They're all basically red herrings. PAAS is breaking to a new yearly lows, 2 months ago we needed to be hoarding silver and ammo to prepare for the apocalypse that Bernanke had wrought. Cynics can see this information flow as ways to keep small players out of the market, but I doubt there is much organization to it. But consider how many faux news adherents have been sold on the idea that the economy is collapsing while missing the meteoric rise in the S&P? Fear sells, and we have an attentional bias towards noticing fearful things. Therefore, the news will always be filled with fear and fear will always be used to forward an agenda. The worst is when you're already in over your head and your position moves against you!
