Failed Plan

The plan exited at the final stop loss.

As the US yield curve continues to flatten, what typically resulted in long term bonds costing more to issue may begin to favor the shorter term bonds at least in the near term.  The signals in the market are providing divergence between key indicators and stock market levels of late.  These discrepancies are often resolved in quick movements which take investors off guard.  As China resumes their actions in the Treasury market and both Europe and Japan are full speed ahead, investors have little options but to move into US markets in search for yields with some perceived safety relative to other markets.
