Steeper and Narrower




The Man, Julian Robertson (on CNBC w Erin) has been playing the steeper yield curve trade (see y'day), and meanwhile, the TED spread (see right) is narrowing just a leetle bit.




Fresh shorts which held off yesterday seem to be dribbling their way back in today after the inevitable opening surges... and quite a lot of retail investors across the region seem to be saying "phew!thankyouverymuch" and chucking out some very painful names this morning.

And that makes me feel a leetle bit more bullish about this bear rally, too, on top of the thank-goodness-we're-looking-at-a-nasty-recession-not-a-Depression view gaining currency out there.
