Now I'm shorting bonds for the main reason that the % has nowhere to go but up. Bernanke wants to borrow money without printing anymore and causing high inflation or hyperinflation. The only way he's going to do that at this point is by raising the rates on bonds, especially T-Bonds, and hoping people buy that shit. Americans are starting to realize the huge risk in financing government debt, and are slowly moving away from bonds. It's that simple.
