    Global bonds have gained $180bn in value last week as sentiment remained cautious and global activity data continued to disappoint. Eurozone and China government bond yields modestly declined in the wake of soft inflation and trade data.

    While US inflation expectations have jumped to almost 2%, Eurozone inflation expectations remain at depressed levels.

    ^^^ +1 … YES – “BIG OIL never sleeps” … GAS PRICES went up over 16 cents in our area from last week — as “summer blends” are coming online & refineries have more demand than supply. We are about at $2.50 mark in Roanoke area … someone noted on WALL ST Journal report that GAS is highest in 3 years or 1,000 days :woohoo:
