Bonds: 2.042% versus 2.105%.

Debt ceiling lifted, talk of doing away with the debt ceiling. All of that elevates bonds.

The curve post-FOMC fell hard towards flat.

Oh no, a Greenspan conundrum is developing. Or is it here?

Yellen this week said she did not understand inflation. Oh THAT is great.

It looked like bond prices would continue to rise, but they have instead reversed.

This is good news for the U.S. economy as it shows our economic data is growing and becoming stronger.
