Double-Digit Inflation Crisis Looms

Submitted by Rob Smith, Mar 7, 2008 20:10

The 10 year bond has remained steady over the last 30 days at 3.6. Today it closed at 3.52

The 30 bonds have only inched up a little to 4.54.

These yields are HIGHLY senstive to inflation expectations - and they've hardley budged.

Oil increases are a tax - and like all taxes - it will slow the economy and inflation pressures.
