Originally published on May 15, 2015 2015 hasn't been a great year for bonds. While US stocks have returned more than 4% since the start of the year and international stocks have done even better, US investment grade bonds are essentially flat. And...

Will The U.S. Treasury Market Get A Summer Vacation?
Brian Romanchuk - at Seeking Alpha - Sun Jun 21, 6:09AM CDT
Despite rather panic-stricken headlines about bond market volatility, the 10-year Treasury Note yield is at a level which we saw in 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, and almost in 2010. I was trained to call this a "trading range", but it is clear...

Rate Hikes Without Supporting Data?
James Picerno - at Seeking Alpha - Thu Jun 18, 9:28PM CDT
The Federal Reserve is talking about raising interest rates, but it's also lowering growth expectations. No wonder the market is uninspired to do much of anything at the moment. The benchmark 10-year yield was unchanged yesterday at 2.32%, based on...
