Treasuries Crash Back To Equity's Unreality

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Presented with little comment except to say that is a very rapid and quite large dump in 10Y Treasuries to 'correct' up (in yield) to equity's apparent ignorance of dismal data...

 

Chart: Bloomberg

The Governments money printing machine was shut down for a while because it was going through it's yearly maintanence routine.  They'll have to plan ahead better next time because things are much worse now than last year when it was shut down for its yearly maintanence.

He's not worried, he thinks he can convince the market that QE is always there and keep rates low at the same time. I think that by next week at this time he may be surprised to find that he's wrong.

Maybe the Treserve and Goldman have Europe and Japan, both in irreversible mult-decade decline, by the short and curlies:     They can can push the Europe Crisis button, or the Middle East Instability button, Adjust S&P 500 button, or many others at any time to scare the markets back to buying US sovereign debt(alongside the Fed) vs what else is out there in size to buy.    

Remember folks, this soverign debt selling race is a last man standing game.  The U.S. gets 80% of its transportation fuel from Its Own Hemisphere.   It mostly trades with itself still, with foreign trade being a nice to have, not a must have.   Defenseless, aging, oil poor Europe and Japan are dependent on disputed sea lanes or nasty kleptocrat Russia for fuels, and they have the problem of that pesky "reserve currency" that they have to trade in, a Pentagon-backed currency.    Wouldn't wanna be 'em.

European sovereign debt look better to you?     Japanese sovereign debt?

How do you see those places doing ten and twenty years from now?    

The future is for those who show up for it.    The Japanese and Europeans have been euthanizing their civilisations the slow way, through denatality, and in Europe's case moronic immigration choices.

What sell-off? On my charts the S&P and Dow are up nearly 1/2 %.

Look at the short term charts (1 minute) and it's just algos trading with each other.

There is no growth.  Yields can't go up or growth worsens.

Snap back to reality, Oh there goes gravity
Oh, there goes Rabbit, he choked
He's so mad, but he won't give up that easy,

No he won't have it , he knows his whole back's to these ropes
It don't matter, he's dope he knows that, but he's broke
He's so stagnant...

Jim Rogers commented that he started shorting bonds again, wonder it that may have something to do with this.

doubt it. On timing bond-shorting Jim Rogers is not very accurate. He admits as much but I'm glad to see him make money for a change on this strategy.
