“Selling America” redux

by Mike Larson on May 22, 2009

in Debt, Interest Rate News

American assets continue to be sold aggressively. The Dollar Index is down 59 basis points to 79.94. The long bond futures are off 25/32 (the day’s low). The 10-year Treasury Note yield is up just over 5 basis points to 3.42%. And gold is up more than $5 to around $960. When will someone in government come out and say “Bernanke, you’re doing a heck of a job” I wonder?

UPDATE: Oops. There go the bond futures. Recent lows just undercut. Down 30/32 at last count.

GMAC got 7.5 billion infusion from the goverment, but no drop in financial stocks. A year ago that would have been a big event. Crazy.
