Gordon, With the Euro's debut in 1999, the posibility of Japanese and Chinese treasury liquidations, slowing US economy, I don't see rates going to 4%. However, once again the sheeple who think their money's safe in Govt Bond Funds will be in for a rude awakening if rates move back to higher levels. The fires in the world are getting numerous and the resources to fight those fires limited. How long will the G-7/World Bank/IMF be able to prop up Brazil? When will China devalue? When will HK devalue? Will Japan collapse? Will Russia erupt in revolution? Derrivative losses? Lower earnings? Y2K? Lots of trouble on the horizon for the next couple of years.
