Bunds & Treasuries Test Key Technical Levels
That escalated quickly...
Shockingly fast moves in the increasingly illiquid bond markets...
with Bunds dramatically underperforming Treasuries...
Of course - the UST move could just be reflective of expectations for a heavy corporate calendar and the 'transitory' effects of rate-locks on an illiquid market... we shall see.

about those unfunded liabilities and debt servicing....
tick tock motherfucker...
Interesting to see Gold rise with yields ....
tick-tock indeed.
dollar weakening. is it our turn to print, again?
Bend over and spread'em wide because its BOHICA time....
Escuse' moi, she no worky...
"debt servicing"...good one. Don't you have some expression about things not being sustainable?
paper games, the world is not Japan however. This time, it's global Weimar.
interesting times...
Japans leading exports = Radiation & zombie company business models
All the money managers are coat-tailing Gross' call, getting way bearish long end.
Where have we seen/heard this before?
Look at the trend since 1980 with treasuries. That trend is not ending until the end.
It could easily end, just repeat the 70's.
Sure seems like those public takers pensions are in big trouble
Gosh, imagine that. People are demanding yield in return for borrowing their "money". Wake me when rates blow out a few percentage points vs a couple basis points.
Shale plays look a lot better all of a sudden.
Plus the yields are massive.
Natural gas prices remain at all time lows.
So are coal prices.
Sure looks to me like the dollar can have a massive move higher again even without the Fed doing much of anything.
Spring is already over. Farmers planting three weeks early. Suppose to hit almost 90 this week.
you mean your meth habit? yay. Thanks to the garbage tweakers, we can't afford to commute or get shelter.
watching the Dow....
what a fucking joke.....
Algorythems killed the day trading star.
The very first video on MTV...
Well that's the top boys... look at them prop the dow up while they unload the illiquid stuff (RUT looking awful).
Last 9 months of action have been nothing but short squeeze. The pressure of that squeeze died last Thursday. They squeezed once more above nas 5000, and now we collapse.
They'll dump the dow en masse before the end of the week, guaranteed. That piece from Gross (which was excellent and completely true) should be enough psychologically to push it over the edge.
The great bear market begins.
Multiply these moves by 100 to appreciate the real effect on our over levered, debt ridden, algorhythm driven, hedge fund centric, close to collapse, teetering edifice of a ponzi scheme - to appreciate what's really going on behind the scenes.
Just saw a Honda comercial where they "claim" to pay your student debt off if you buy a new Honda! I shit you not !
So worry not about debt someone else will buy it or "pay" it off for you!
Right.
Uhh, no. I know there are people on here who are too stupid to understand ZH postst and financial markets in general, but I didn' t realize there were people on here who are too stupid to understand commercials.
It's a proud day for you starman.
Maybe Greece is going to drop the bomb tomorrow and some of those euro bond holders aren't waiting for Round 2.
I would buy 30 year US treasuries here for a trade. Shit economic numbers equals no rates hikes anytime soon. People will start to price in the odds of rate hikes this year at zero and a chance of more QE.
TLT just decisively broke the 200 day - they forgto to show that chart.
and the pattern looks to be accelerating.
short interest on TLT had been back to 20%. my guess is, big money is shorting the shit out of them,
mortgage rates just hit a key level. housing will be back in the shitter.
So silver is the only asset doing well right meow. Makes since.
Yeah and it makes sense.... and cents too. ;->
LOLz
Remember when cents meant something?
HA!
:)
As I said before*...
In a currency & financial world, where CBs and the political central planners control currencies and news national stats, I would be very cautious about interpreting the associated tea leaves. Forget stats and stocks -- it's all Sno-biz and Showbiz.
The one stat I'd keep an eye on, is the bond YIELD in Germany and US. When these go to Zero, then we have the equivalent of a star using Iron as its nuclear fuel -- a process that uses more energy than it produces (to keep the temperature and pressure higher than the force of gravity).
At that point, the true End or Reset will not only happen, it MUST happen and Derivatives will go Super-Nova.

Sorry ECB, your liquidity ended up at an Aldi in Germany and all you get are bananas. haha. bananas. the markets' collateral is rotting bananas. AWESOME. I'm so glad the gouging and racism was worth it.
