Don't think that's true. 10s30s has been flattening. Asia never really bought long end. And the color I hear from london and jpy desks is that...
So what? We can all find list of prices that have gone up and list of prices that have gone down. That's not the point isn't it? When economists...
I find this very dubious - you can walk up to a counter at the local HSBC in london or Banco di Siena in Milan and buy/sell gold?
And what exactly are you proposing? I'm going to guess it's a protectionist and contractionary.
Have you read about the deflationary panics of the 19th century? They were absolutely crippling.
Oh I stand corrected then. For whatever reason I thought we are talking about cash bonds. In any case, I think the request for inquiry based...
So.... we are going to counter well documented and researched statistics with .... your personal observations? Let's see - did the price of...
