The safe haven will then be the ten year. After the Ten Year is squeezed higher, driving rates lower, the fed will then offer the 30 year for sale again. Same game. Nothing changes.

How will the Treasury fund these promises if they stop selling the long bond? Where is the money going to come from? It would seem with all of the spending taken place over the last 9 years that the Treasury will try to sell a 50yr or 100 yr bond. Its not like tax receipts are rising.

If like you said the Fed will try to drive Treasuries UP to get interest rates down does this mean that the TNX will go down? or will TNX go UP as Treasuries go UP. i'm trying to find weather if Treasuries go UP does stocks go down? thanks! sorry, i love your blog but i’m just no familiar with Treasuries.

I think you’re right about this and do you think this will come after the stress test are revealed?
