    Lack of bond market volatility

    Every buyer for a seller!! somebody will blow up... I think we're seeing more transparency from the Fed than in the past, it's been kinda a sucker's game for the past couple years betting against them... Will things start changing? Well, we've been in a bull market in bonds for something like...

    Ben Bernanke Bonds and the greenBack

    Have read we may be double topping gold, honestly I have no idea what drives gold prices, all I know is I bought low, and will continue to hold it until it's no longer going up, I'm not kept awake at night too much by its prospects... Anybody who has tried to forecast short term gold movements...

    Ben Bernanke Bonds and the greenBack

    Ya, it's funny how bonds haven't followed the dollar's signal this past week... CAD didn't do too well either, since we are a petro currency...

    Bonds readying to advance?

    ya, I knew what you meant, the Fed's definitely got one more thing to keep in mind if they choose to invert it end of Jan... For me, Long 10yr... and looking to long 2-yr when we get a definitive sign the Fed is about to ease... Long term? hell i dunno, it was a few months ago (during...

    Bonds readying to advance?

    I dream of 109-27... I'm either being put to sleep by this lull, I thought we'd have more of a reaction to the minutes... lame

    Yield Curve more or less flat

    I think we'll get a better picture of if we get more inversion by Tuesday's Fed Minutes... Last time the mins were released was a market turner, so I think that will dictate what will happen most of the month leading up to the next FOMC meeting... just my two cents... BTW, I"m way overleveraged...

    Bonds readying to advance?

    Finally was able to get in myself (I may have traded with you, who knows with such low vol) I'm a little concerned that it fell so much though... not fun for me... I guess we'll know come Jan1

    Two Year Auction

    All in all I was expecting a little more today, didn't seem like bills wanted to go one way or another due to the news... Maybe we'll have to wait for new-homes... Two year, ah yes, definitely going more inverted if this keeps up...

    Disqualified from a job because of a book I didn’t read

    It's a staple in many high school curiculums, but i'm not exactly sure how it would tie into trading... was this a trading job at a prop shop? These firms have a tendency to ask "silly" questions... I got the good ol' Manhole cover question on mine...

    Bonds readying to advance?

    The trade is actually running away from me, wanted to add contracts at 109-14 but now have to wait for a pullback, may get it tomorrow if the consumer number is good... The trend is a little less muddled now, but get ready for volatility due to lack of vol... Yield curve was all the talk...

    Ten-year Treasury yields dip below 2-year

    Wouldn't read too much into it.... YET... Wait for the volume to get back in, and see if we get a bounce or a break... It's suprising how things are happening faster than I had expected, I had timed all of this to happen end of Jan, but seems to have come a month early...

    Bonds readying to advance?

    Thanks for that... What do you think of the Consumer Confidence number on Wed? I don't live inthe states so wasn't able to hit up the malls there this season, but here it's been pretty "whatever..."

    Bonds readying to advance?

    Defintiely agree on the capacity question, the economy in general remains strong... But from standpoint in long rates, which are more sensitive to inflation and less to the fed, I have reversed my opinion on where I think pricing pressures are post-Katrina... I think we agree on one thing...
