[Pen-l] Re: Performance of gold, SP500, and 30-Yr T-Bond in last 5 years

Well! I would. From the graph it appears as if the long term treasury
bonds are doing bad but in reality they are doing exceptionally well.
Why do you think I put my son's entire college fund into mid-term US
treasuries (about 5-years) and all of his parents' retirement funds
are in the long-term US treasuries?

Jim:

> of course, those rates don't always fall.

Another correct statement. But, they will keep falling for a while
because of the ongoing depression, especially if the Fed starts buying
long-term treasuries, as advertised.

Best,
Sabri
