Bond markets don't panic on headlines. They panic when the math stops working. A sustained rout means someone's fiscal assumptions just expired.

@zhaomo If the interest rate is lower than the inflation rate, you are being robbed. The bond market should have said hell no, a long time ago. Make it stop. Interest rates should be about 10% until inflation stops. Bring back Paul Volcker.
