I saw the world thrashing all around your face
Never really knowing it was always mesh and lace

Related to the previous post, what is the Treasury market telling us here? 10 yr yields have been falling, and today gapped lower south of 3%.
On the surface, this suggests an intensifying 'risk off' deflationary context.
Then again, this market is so manipulated that any signal may be drowned in noise...

Rather than a problem to be dreaded and combatted, falling prices through increased production is a wonderful long-run tendency of untrammelled capitalism. The trend of the Industrial Revolution in the West was falling prices, which spread an increased standard of living to every person; falling costs, which maintained general profitability of business; and stable monetary wage rates—which reflected steadily increasing real wages in terms of purchasing power. This is a process to be hailed and welcomed rather than to be stamped out.
~Murray Rothbard
