The US Government Bond Market is a disaster waiting to happen

Other central banks have done it already around the world but basically what it demands to is money printing and in fact I don`t think it will help the bond market at all in the long run.

Maybe when they start doing it the bond market may rebound a little bit but don`t forget the 30 Year Treasury has already dropped by 20% since December 21, when the yield on the 30 year touched 2.51%. Now we are at 3.77%. In other words yields have gone up substancially.

I think the US Government Bond Market is a disaster waiting to happen for the simple reason that the requirements of the government to coverits fiscal deficits will be very, very high.
