Bill: I enjoyed Peabody's piece. Incredibly bearish if correct. The worst of both worlds -- a severe recession in developed Asia and higher long-term rates. I have difficulty with the former idea, but fully agree that our bond market will get trashed this year.

Bill: One other short note which your comments to George Cole on the yield curve reminded me about. James Grauer of Omnitrage Economics has published a short piece called "The Fed's Christmas Wish List" in which he implies that the FED is actually targeting a steepened yield curve. Grauer has a unique twist on this in that he feels a steeper curve front to back would be beneficial. He is a very funny man who is an excellent bond trader, formerly with CALPERS, and with excellent FED connections. I hope this URL works. The article is in Adobe Acrobat pdf format. stomaster.com
