Stock, sorry it took me a while to respond to you're asinine comment about a rate cut, but here goes. There are 3 guarantees in life: 1) death, 2) taxes and 3) there will be no rate cut for the foreseeable future. When equities tank there is a little thing called "flight to quality". Not that treasuries have all that much quality anymore, with the dollar getting crushed day after day, but that is what happened. The fed cannot cut rates, if they do, you can kiss our dollar goodbye, which in turn will bring on MUCH HIGHER rates. Sorry to burst you're bubble, but eventually you may understand how the markets work.
