''The bond market's taking its cue from the stock market,'' said Scott Grannis, who helps manage about $50 billion at Western Asset Management in Pasadena, California. Grannis said the gains in stocks are another reflection of the economy's strength, though he sees growth slowing in the months ahead. +MARK C.

Meanwhile, Fed worrried about 'asset inflation' in internets must have seen that 'asset bubble' (where gallons of ink has been spilled on out come for US economy if internets corrects) had a shrp haircut without any impact on the market, we still stayed above 10250 on DOW abd above 1300 on SPM. The bond yields will soon head south as techs and broad market makes a lethal move in a forward direction..
