“The last top in Treasury prices (and a bottom for yields) occurred in 1946. Yields rose for the next 34 years. Now the Treasury market appears to be topping out again… and is headed for a new high in yields… which may not arrive until 2047. It may be a long way off… or right around the corner. Either way, it will be hell getting there. The Detroit pension disaster is just the first of many. Wait until long-term interest rates hit 5%… or 10%. How many companies, cities and pension funds will still be solvent? We’ll see! But wait. You don’t think the Fed will sit on its hands and let the markets take over, do you? Taper off? Forget it.”
