Call me a pessimist, but I think bonds will slowly continue to inch up throughout the year (30 yr ending at around 5.6%), keeping the pressure on the stock market. The yield curve has been the flattest it has been in decades, and such conditions usually don't last forever. I think the short term rates are still too high, but with the strong economy, Greenspan will be hard pressed to ease. One things is for sure - inflation will not be a factor for quie sometime. Supply / demand of fixed income intrumnets coupled with bond prices in Japan / Europe will be the most likely drivers of US 30 year yieds. Looks like we will have a favorable open tomorrow.
