Stock and bond market volatility has picked up the past few weeks as the yield on the ten-year bond increased from 4.6% to 5.14%, a big increase in what has been a mundane long-end of the curve for quite some time.Pretty much following the bursting of the tech-telecom bubble and 9/11, the bond market has been stuck in a very tight trading range. Investors developed a Pavlovian response running into bonds on any bad financial news or events surrounding oil or terrorism. However, it appears that this might be about to change.
