      Effects of the Long Dated Treasury Bubble
      I share the same question as Rhunzzz. It's not that we can't pay the debt down, it's that we won't take the necessary measures to do it in enough time before it get's truly out of control. That time is approaching quickly though.

      The CDS World Depends on Italy and Spain - Who Knew?
      Look at how few contracts those are though. Could it be possible they took the insurance out on themselves?

      Is Short Covering Really Propping Up the Markets?
      Thanks for doing the leg work with this. I understand where mekats is coming from, but ultimately, we do not know becuase there is no transparency with the hedge funds. Duh, right.

      Friday's Bond Outlook: Bursting of the Treasury Security Bubble? (Update)
      Direxions and ProFunds both have Treasury short funds. Direxions is 2.5 times.

      SWRichmond - As John mentions, the Treasury auctioned off $40 billion in securities earlier this week that still may be running through the system. Such a huge auction dilutes current supply in the market, driving price down.

      It could very well also be loss of confidence, but there really isn't anywhere else to go...

      The Cramer Crash?
      I agree, what did he think he was going to do by saying that in such a public arena. He also published an article in NY Magazine yesterday - as noted in another Seeking post.

      Gold Is Set to Regain Its Shine
      dlaw, analyze what you said. People need money and the easiest way to do that is to PRINT it. When money is printed, its supply increases and the paper money is worth less. Expand your time horizon and consider the mess the United States is in financially and you should certainly come up with a different response.

      Is the Dollar Safe?
      Great comment by Chris B. He is right on target. Last Friday's announcement that the People's Bank was undercapitalized was a precursor to Sunday's bailout. The way to get that capital back is to increase the value of the holdings, AKA bailout Fannie and Freddie so there will actually be buyers returning to the market.

      Bailouts Slope: Slippery, and Expensive
      How can you make the case that the bailout was directed for PIMCO when the Chinese hold trillions of dollars of Agency debt and have the clout to push us around?

      The US Treasury Gave $10bn (and Maybe More) to China
      At this point, both countries have too much to lose in having bad relations. On par with all comments so far though, America has more to lose than China. What is alarming right now though, is that there is very little incentive for anyone to buy our debt, so it is going to get more expensive and put us further in the hole. Let's just hope they do not try to cash out, because then that hole will end up being our grave.
