Call Me A Skeptic, But....

... I don't think the Euro deal really worked (Exchange listing.): 1 Year.


If you go to the Bundesbank website you can get the list of all the Bunds at this page. Click on the particular issue and you get a page with the time series, which you can switch to the graph. I kind of like the daily diff graphs.

I have been spending a lot of time over there, looking at different issues and pondering what it says about money:
Exchange listing. 7 year.


Interpolating. Exchange listing. 2.4 years.


Who wears short shorts? Exchange listing.

Nothing says "I love you and I believe in you" like negative yields.

Comments:
The love of the bond market is a fickle, fickle thing, as both we and the Germans will discover in due course. After all, we're only nearing the end of Act II; there's still plenty of play to come ...
 
You mean the part where Lady Market reels out of the room covered with gore, holding a knife?
 
Or the witches:

Bubble, bubble, toil and trouble,
I leave your market in deep rubble,
With a flash and with a flair,
Your ill-gotten gains turn into air!
 
We few, we happy few,
we Bundesbankers! for he today that buys our bonds shall be my bruder, be he ne're so vile. This purchase shall impoverish his condition.

And ministers in England now a-bed
Shall think themselves accursed they were not here,
And hold their sovereignty cheap whiles any speaks
That bought with us upon Saint Crispin's day."
 
"The Thane of Fife had a wife; where is her pension now?"
 
Gordon - good one.

John - as the wood walks, Social Security recedes....
