ParticipantI agree that US Treasuries are in an all time bubble that it is painfully obvious.
Rates are at all time lows….which means the only significant move in bond prices is higher.
I have always found it easier to participate in a deflating bubble as it is easy to see a bubble when it is here rather than trying to guess what might turn into a bubble.
We all knew housing was in a bubble, but didn’t know how what to do. We made more profit shorting MBS beginning in 2006 than we made on the way up…
Thus, look at one of the short/ultra-short us TBill ETF funds and sit back

Participant“…a deal either pencils or it doesn’t.”
That is the best statement of all.
Recently submitted, what I felt to be realistic, and offer of $1.8mm on a 1st TD with a balance of $6mm secured by a 40k sf office bldg in Scottsdale, AZ.
Banker was aghast at my offer and told me to get out.
After that I asked him his view of rent/vacancy/expenses/ti/lc/etc and he agreed with every one…run the calcs and bam, $1.8mm…
He apologized for yelling obscenities, but still couldnt’ get the board to entertain my all cash, 5 day close offer.
Told him I’d see him in a few months when no one else would buy it either…and so it goes…

January 6, 2010 at 2:12 PM in reply to: More land, lowering costs, where would you move here in the West? #499565ParticipantCheck out this book by Rich Karlgaard, Editor of Forbes: “Life 2.0”
He has stories of business people (mostly small) who have left the big city behind to improve their life. Discusses the pros/cons and gives great insight into various types of towns: College Towns, up and comers, bohemian towns, middle of no where, etc.
Fun read too.
