Not true at all. No more than you control the interest rate your bank will
charge you on a loan.


You think the Chi-Coms set U.S. Treasury note rates?


In a way they do. The rate is set at the rate that the government needs to
to sell the notes.

I'd bet any amount of Quatloos (or Gold Pressed Latinum) that the
bubbles are about to burst and that once again, the US Dollar will be
the dominant International currency.

Seriously. Another couple of months.

Yes, in a round about way.

Do not really agree as to time frame, but I always wonder why the Euro is so
strong. Most of the Euro region is on the verge of bankruptcy. The fact
that in about 10 years, France will have only 2 workers for every retired
person on a full pension is an immense drag on the economy.

I hope your earlier prediction about cheaper oil comes about.
I paid $1.267 per liter today...(roughly equals $ 4.79 per US gallon) down
from the $1.28 last Thursday.

The treasury rate is set on the open market.
