[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The dollar has dropped YTD, but so has the yield on the 10 year Treasury. There are too many other variables to make a correlation. Regardless of the dollar, given all the deficit spending past/present/future, rates should rise, but they are dropping across the entire yield curve, 10 year recent peak was 10/23 at 5%. [/quote] Correlation means exactly that: correlation. Yes, there's fairly strong correlation. But worse, the way to mitigate some of the effects at a macro level have significant impacts on the working and middle classes. e.g., a weak dollar can drive inflation, leading to higher interest rates, ultimately making food, housing, and other basic needs more expensive in order to protect rich people.[/quote] Agree with your theory, but the data YTD does not. Yields have been dropping. [/quote] Look wider than 1-5 years.[/quote] Wider is affected by QE, so that a major skew.[/quote]
