What are Treasuries doing? I'm not paying much attention.

Yes, SPOO is Bernank's world, and the resolution of this divergence can work the other
way too: as LT rates rise sharply, so does SPOO.

Call it residual QE or bottled inflation, and the Bernank sure wants his QE to wind up
in stock prices. Bubliciously wonderful. The global Kondratieff winter of
1876-1896 was characterized by extremely slow economic growth over 2
decade time frame. There was no huge economic drop like in GD, just a painful
long period. It was actually 6 years in the US, 20 years in Britain.

There is no painless way out of Keynesian endpoint. We have very printatious CBs this
time, so experimentation with competitive currency devaluation will continue. History
showed this is hardly a way out of pain.

Half-life of the dollar is 4 years.

Never mind, SPOO is unchanged since March 2009 bottom -g/ng-

If you do the adjustment, the picture is not pretty. This is wages,
something close to GDP per capita.
