The 10 year treasury rate has hit another nearly 3 year high. Still, nobody seems worried. Should they be? Check out this chart.

Recently, many have come to the conclusion that today's colleges and universities are not preparing their graduates for the real world.

Therefore, I will be submitting a business plan to the Wall Street banks proposing to establish a for-profit college that will prepare young people with the skills needed in the workplaces of today in the United States. A sampling of the courses offered:

Relativistic bean counting and Ponzi finance 101. This teaches the student how to muck up a balance sheet like the best of them. The highlight of this course is a trip to Madoff's jail cell where the student learns how to run a Ponzi for two decades without getting caught.

Community organizing your way to success 301. This is definitely a 300 level course as it is quite advanced. It teaches the student who comes from a background that is so screwed up nobody even knows where you were born to really make something of yourself by learning useful skills such as teleprompter reading, playing a crappy round of golf when you should really be working but don't understand your job, and how not to negotiate with the people you should be working with so your workplace gets shut down but it doesn't matter anyway.

Working the welfare system 100. This is our basic course for the low class shmuck who wants to live off the government. Covered are how to apply for and get the maximum dollar amount of food stamps, AFDC, child support, energy assistance, rent assistance, free telephone, disability, and any other welfare program in existence in the United States today. Plan to spend 2 semesters studying this one.

Waddling up to the window for a bailout 406. This is an advanced course and caps off our degree program. Here, an instructor from the NSA has been commissioned to sleuth through the secretive denizens of the top financial institutions in the US to learn exactly how to get "free money" from the Federal Reserve. Students who successfully complete this course have a 100% job placement rate with the nation's top banks, even the ones with tattoos, poor communications skills, or body odor so bad it could clear a room.

We need to add one for

Navigating the proliferation of genders and alternative lifestyles 101. This is the course for the diminishing percentage of the population who still thinks men are men and women are women who therefore need to get prepared to work for the Googles of today. In this course you will learn to give reasons and agreement for why women make better software engineers than men and why men make better nurses than women aka known as why James Damore was unfit to work at Google. Upon completion of this course you will have the skills to encounter genders and lifestyles you've never even heard of in the most screwed up workplaces in America, workplaces that are even more dysfunctional than Google or anything your wildest imagination can conceive of.

Since Madoff died last year, the Ponzi workshop will need to be relocated.

The rent assistance portion of Working the welfare system 100 came in handy for a lot of graduates last year.

If the bond market can blow up shortly, maybe these courses will no longer be needed.

I had to dig hard for this, but there is a tiny bit of worry out there this morning.

No worries about the trend though. At least I can't find any.

2 year treasury yield https://bigcharts.marketwatch.com/advch ... se&state=9 some say the Fed follows the 2 year and if so they have a lot of catching up to do as they only raised 0.25% and the 2 year rate is up more than that since they raised.
