The 1-year T-Note rate is now rising at an extremely fast pace relative to dividend yields. Historically, this has been a reliable signal that cash might outperform stocks.
- Richard BernsteinWe`ve been in this trading range between 5.375 and 5.75 (30-year bond yields) for a very long period of time. Then we finally broke out of that and the next target people are setting their sights for is 6 percent. We have a refunding this week, we have an awful lot of corporate supply and we also have next week`s FOMC meeting approaching.
- Mike RyanYields are going to be rising in general and there`s going to an unwinding of the flattening.
- John RichardsAttacking is the only secret. Dare and the world always yields; or if it beats you sometimes, dare it again and it will succumb.
- William Makepeace ThackerayThis bill is the legislative equivalent of crack. It yields a short-term high but does long-term damage to the system and it`s expensive to boot.
- Barney FrankWe believe the integrated approach makes us better able to compete. We think (that) in the long term, it yields superior investment returns.

- Alan RupeThe high food value of field beans and the shortage of supply due to the light yields of 1915 and 1916 render them of great importance in the regions to which they are adapted.
- Alan RupeThe minority yields to the majority!
- Alan StevensOnly a great mind that is overthrown yields tragedy.
- Alfred DeMariaThe best real-estate investments with the highest yields are in working-class neighborhoods, because fancy properties are overpriced.
- Algernon Charles SwinburneFrom the night, his solitude, the poet finds day and starts a diary that is lethal to the inert. The dark landscape yields a dialogue.
- Andrea CeruttiA wise woman never yields by appointment. It should always be an unforeseen happiness.
- Andreas HoistadIf Fed Funds were expected to rise in the future, the curve would be positive with intermediate and long bonds requiring higher yields as a cushion against accelerating short rates. If the Fed were expected to lower rates, a flatter, even inverted curve might result. It`s not that this academic theory has been dislodged in recent years but it may have been asked to take a seat next to the increasingly important variable of global financial flows. These flows, no doubt, rely critically on the willingness of foreign investors to hold U.S. assets in the face of potential currency and asset price depreciation.
- Anne LangInvestors could get in trouble in the search for yields by buying a stock that has a high yield only because the stock price is going down.
