Reissuance of the 30-year Bond

[PohPoh]

In October 2001, the Fed announced they would stop issuing the 30 year, reducing supply in the global marketplace...
The initial reaction to the announcement was a surprising tumble in bond prices, which lasted for all of 5 months, and was followed by a massive bull market in bonds...

This year, the Fed announced the REISSUANCE of the 30-year. Does anyone have any information on when this was announced?? Any thoughts??

Do you have any links to this story?
I can't seem to find it..

As for being late to the party, I disagree...I think the invitations have just been sent out...

Quote from SPX Baller:

I believe the explanation for the initial tumble is quite simple. One merely needs to look at the taylor series approximation of z = Re(cos(x+iy)) in the eight degree, and the initial result becomes quite obvious. However I have trouble explaining the consequent rise.

All that stuff makes no sense to me..
The rise was pretty easy to explain....Less supply, higher demand = rising prices...

This scares me when people ask these types of questions and have live brokerage accounts!

Come on newbie folks, challenge me.

OK, Pats and Bears half time over. i can quit picking on you.

A word to the wise, to trade the bonds on CBOT you will either already be or will soon be a manic depressive. Good Luck............... Not as much rhythms in trading the bonds as in trading the stock indexes
