Keep an Eye on the Long End of the US Bond Curve

This has been a long trend change as can easily be seen from this chart. The trend is bottoming and may be starting a reversal. Again, these things tend to play out over long periods of time. Don't expect to start day trading this next week.



Disclosure: I added initial positions in the gold and silver miners last week. I expect to add to them if the markets confirm. I have been hedging them against a 'market crash' in US equities such as the panic selloff in late 2008 which took us into the market lows.
After the Revolution of 1905, the Czar had prudently prepared for further outbreaks by transferring some $400 million in cash to the New York banks, Chase, National City, Guaranty Trust, J.P.Morgan Co., and Hanover Trust. In 1914, these same banks bought the controlling number of shares in the newly organized Federal Reserve Bank of New York, paying for the stock with the Czar\'s sequestered funds. In November 1917,  Red Guards drove a truck to the Imperial Bank and removed the Romanoff gold and jewels. The gold was later shipped directly to Kuhn, Loeb Co. in New York.-- Curse of Canaan
