    Bad bonds

    interesting articles in bbc and guardian about troubles looming ahead with the rising bond yields

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/thereporters/robertpeston/
    http://business.guardian.co.uk/viewp...767628,00.html

    May be its all a vast left wing conspiracy

    The graph in the print edition of Guardian doesn't show in the web page though.

    I thought this was going to be a slag:

    George Lazonby/Timothy Dalton........ etc type thread.

    Shame on you.
    I am not qualified to give the above advice!

    The original point and click interface by
    Smith and Wesson.

    Step back, have a think and adjust my own own attitude from time to time

      You probably got rid of him in one of your early cunning plans, before your race realised that Bond wasn't real.

        Talk about dodgy Bond actors would make more sense than any of the economic coverage in the Guardian or the BBC.

        Why are Treasury Bonds ‘Bad’, or did I miss a downgrading of by Moody’s? Bond yields have risen, that is true. Only a few months ago there was an inverted yield curve and we had claims that there was going to be a recession. Now we are back to a rising yield curve and the same people are predicting exactly the same doom. Stock markets have fallen back from their all time high, but the Dow Jones Industrial Average did pile on 187 points yesterday largely on news of economic expansion in the US.

        Sadly a collapse of the capitalist system and the vindication of the socialist philosophies is not on the cards for this week.
