Interest rates haven’t been this low in 5,000 years

That’s a finding in the latest Bank of America flow show report, which, in fairness, is a number that’s been trotted out before. It’s based on a 2005 book about the history of interest rates, but the chart is still incredible to examine.

The Bank of America report pointed out there was a record weekly inflow to Treasury inflation-protected securities of $3.2 billion.  

The 10-Year Treasury Inflation-Indexed security yielded a record low negative 1.15% on Thursday.

Vi kan mycket väl bevittna världshistoriens största och kanske farligaste bubbla.

Räntorna är de lägsta på åtminstone 5 000 år.

Detta betyder att priset på obligationer är de högsta på 5 000 år.
