If you pay taxes, yes. If you are Norm you get huge upside and limited downside, who wouldn't want that?

Re: Treasuries (was Two Buck Chuck...)

rates are too low to matter in my view so i think we are on the same page.

but the fed is probably going to do the same playbook and try to drive rates down even further.

i guess they don't realize banks have actual or implied libor floors in a lot of their deals.

who is getting hurt in your mind (on the financials) with the sharp drop in treasury yields?
