An honest question: How in the f**k do stocks go UP with bonds tanking AGAIN today. I mean, the yield on the 30-year is back up to 5.67%! I just don't get it . . .

Because it's a Myth.

The financials are really strong these days with the rates going up. We all should buy some before the rates ever higher.

Robert, 1)go rent the Bill Murray movie "Meatballs"

2)fastforward to section of movie where Bill Murray leads all in
a rousing version of "IT JUST DOESN'T MATTER"

3) Replay often enough until everything makes sense and you have
no questions left

Because stocks are the only guaranteed way to earn 50% a year on your money, 40% a month if you like to eat internuts. Bond schmond ... we don't give a rip about those old fuddy duddy type of deals - just a waste our investment money. Besides they hardly cover my introductory 2.99% advance from that new Chase Visa card I signed up for. -g-

This is no shit folks, Chase just sent me an intro rate of 2.99%. Are the card companies totally nutz or what?

They ain't all going up.
Seems the new lows should be a steal to dip into right about now.
They're bound to rise out of the ashes like a phoenix, eh?
