  1. No TIPS pain yet. It does make me a bit nervous to be in record territory.

    How low can it go?

  2. Mr Slippery,

    That's amazing!

    I wonder what it would take for him to limbo under today's record setting -0.41% 10-year TIPS yield.

    (Yesterday's -0.39% yield was the previous record.)

    The war on savers continues!

  3. You'd think that with the 2.46% rise in the Nasdaq today that there would be some pain in long-term treasuries.

    Fortunately, there is still $11 trillion waiting to pounce on better times.

    I keep looking at the "better times" pinup calendar but I'm just not liking what I'm seeing.

    Here's Miss May, lol.
