'Twist' Sends Ultra Investors Shouting With 30Y Treasury Yield Back To Jan 2009 Lows
This week alone, longer-dated Treasury yields have dropped 15bps, as 30Y Treasury yields reach 2011 lows and all the way back to January 2009 levels. One can only hope that Bernanke doesn't disappoint...
It is also perhaps worth noting that the spread between 30Y MTG rates and 10Y TSY at 120bps is its highest since April 2009 - so those expecting mortgage rates to plummet and a wave of refi/new purchases may just be disappointed.

The Bernank is going to be disappointed when 3.5% mortages do nothing for home sales or prices.
Bernake comes to the mic today, looks at the rates. Sees they are where he would like them, thinks to himself, "Mission Accomplished," proceeds to jaw-jack about coming in if necessary.
"Market" participants, being completely brain dead lemmings continue chasing the carrot on the stick.
All attention returns to EUR for another month.
Boring afternoon.
Not only that, there is a panic bid in municipal bonds today.
MUB now at 52-week highs, California muni's especially strong, check out CMF.
Really dude? You base your logic on municipals on a 52 week chart of an ETF? I know that usually you just troll, but I'm fairly sure you are trying to be serious on this one. Why do you even bother posting? You know everybody here thinks you are a joke, right?
You live in your parents basement in LA. Your life sucks. Go away.
Wow...awfully hard on your bastard son aren't you?
That's because Bawney Fwank was talking them up this morning on CNBC
sub 2% GDP = epic muni fail.
Good luck with dat.
How would passage of a Cali State bank effect it's muni's ?
Finally, Armageddon.
But the difference is tha the 30 Y is still not at all time lows like the 10Y. This raises the question whether the FED actually has any control over 30y at all?

I live in a part of the country where kids still tell jokes in exchange for candy on Halloween. I give double candy for really good ones.
That was last year's winner.
double candy!
Can't wait for this year's winner!
I'll have to send my kids out with this one then.
Q:What's got 72 balls and fucks old ladies?
A:Bingo
Large SPY blocks dump hit the market at 12:25
What is going on?
No QE3 news leak?
The fed continues to analyze the data and stands ready for further accommodation. It sure would be funny to see the whole thing blow up.
If the act of stapling the long end to the floor doesn't mark the top in real estate then nothing does. If we step back and look 10 years out how can this help RE ? I'm thinking massive long term C wave (not that I'm big on Elliott) in commercial real estate as sooner or later all of this must unwind.
I am not going to spend any money on this crap market that needs to come down at least another 50% to reflect fair value !
Once this house of cards has collapsed down to march 2009 lows, SP 666, I might perhaps think about it -

First, go hard physical assets, ie. "phyzzz."
Sprinkle left overs on stocks, bonds and premium roasted whole coffee beans.
