>> It's been a big deal the last year because Yellen has been doing 22% T-Bills and nobody has an explanation as to why so all kinds of conspiracy theories have been floating around.<<

The reason is obvious, would you rather finance debt at a high rate for 10 years or one year at a time, until rates come back down?

Same reason the 100 year bond didn't fly, for it to be marketable it would have to yield twice what a 20 does.
