Talking about the worthless common and current people while maks is no part of his problem is laughable

this already happened - in 2007. marks lost his job and he bounced back and got an even better job. then he quit that job because his boss was an unreasonable drug addict and now he has an even better job. it's called marketable skills and those will keep you alive when times are lean.

i'm sure making sure allt he switches are 'on' and not 'off' and making sure no emplkoyees are playing solitaire or checking facebok is real hard and will serve him well in the future and wont be completely replaced by machien year 2023

if that's what you think he does, then you don't know much about being a system admin. but whatever you think he does, it got him progressively more well paying jobs. and what's hilarious and ironic is that he's self taught. isn't that what you hold in highest esteem? why not do what he did and learn something applicable to the job market? perhaps you can turn your love of math and physics into something useful.

marks was supposed to be the frontline defense against this sort of thing, he took a hippocratic oath, but when you wave that big new paycheck in front of someone, few can resist

none of us are here to save you. sorry.

since you've bragged about teaching yourself calculus (among other things you believe you undersstand), i thought you valued being an autodidact. why did you go off on a tangent and suddenly bring up something completely unrelated? what does a letter written by karl marx have to do with this? maybe you missed my point, my fault.

100 Years of Treasury Bond Interest Rate History
Investors expecting bond funds to perform as well in the next 10 years as they have in the last 10 will be disappointed. Bonds can play an important role in investor portfolios, reducing volatility and increasing the predictability of returns. However, the stellar performance of bond funds -- especially longer-term funds -- as yields have declined over the last 30 years will not be repeated anytime soon. Not only that, there is even the risk of negative returns.

U.S Treasury Bond Interest Rate History Since 1900



The graph above (click on image to expand) shows U.S. interest rates beginning in 1900. From 1953 onward, the rates are
10-year U.S. Treasury Note rates, plotted monthly; prior to 1953, they're the less granular.
Note: The graph has been updated through 2012. While the statistics below do not fully reflect market performance since the original publication date. I think the main points in the original analysis are still relevant. For the most recent 10-year rates, see the March, 2013 Market Update.

Highest, Lowest and Average Interest Rates Since 1900
Since 1900 yields have ranged from a little less than 2%, to 15.3%; the average rate was 4.9%. However, the left hand side of this graph clearly represents a different world from the right hand side. Somewhere between the mid-50's and the mid-70's, rates became much more volatile.

From 1900 through 1959, interest rates ranged from the all-time low of a little less than 2.0% in 1941 to a high of 5.1% in 1921 -- a range from low to high of only 3.1%; the average rate was 3.3%. Since then, the range has been from the December 2008 financial panic low of 2.4% to the September 1981 "all-time" high of 15.3% -- a range of almost 13%; the average rate during that period was 6.7%.

The outstanding feature of this graph is clearly the 50 years beginning around 1960. During this period, we have seen yields go from less than 4% to more than 15%, and back again. The average rate has doubled, from 3.3% to 6.7%, and the range of rates has quadrupled! Are interest rates normally as consistent as they were from 1900 to 1960? Or, is the boom-bust cycle afterwards more typical? It's difficult to tell from this graph.

The Impact of Falling Interest Rates/Yields
What is clear is that "recent" history could seriously mislead investors who evaluate investment prospects by looking at the last 3, 5, 10, or even 25 years. Interest rates have declined more or less steadily for the last 30 years, from more than 15% to less than 3%. Falling yields are great for bond investors -- especially those buying intermediate or long-term bonds. These buyers receive higher than prevailing rates, and/or they benefit from appreciation in the price of their bonds caused by the falling rates (see Yield to Maturity & Interest Rate Risk).

Unfortunately, the returns that bond funds provide when rates are falling from 15% to 3% cannot be repeated if interest rates are already at 3%!

Is There a Bond Bubble? The Hidden Risk in Bond Funds
In October 2010, the yield on 10-year Treasury Notes was 2.54%, not far off the 2.4% low set during the financial panic near the end of 2008. These are historically low rates. To find comparable rates, you have to go back more than 50 years, to 1954. Even in the pre-1960 world, these would be below average interest rates.

Because of the relationship between yield and bond price, near all-time low interest rates mean near all-time high bond prices. It's a near certainty that bond prices can only go down from here -- though it won't necessarily happen immediately. As a result, not only are investors in intermediate and long-term treasury bond funds less likely to continue to benefit from falling rates, they are likely to see price decreases when rates increase.

How much impact could that have? Just to make the point (i.e., this is a completely hypothetical example), consider if 10-year interest rates were to immediately increase from 2.5% to the "100-year" average rate of 4.9%; holders of new bonds would see a price decrease of almost 20%. An increase to the more recent average of 6.7% would translate into a price decrease of closer to 30%.

Past Performance is not a Guarantee of Future Returns
Fund flows into bond funds have increased dramatically over the last two years. Investors in intermediate and long-term funds expecting a repeat of "recent" performance will be disappointed. Those seeking "safety" -- to avoid risk -- may well be equally disappointed. The out-performance of bonds over the last 10 (or 30, or ...) years does not mean that bonds are a better investment than the alternatives that they out-performed, only that bonds at the right price are.

Value matters.

How often have rates been below, say, 3%? See Analysis of 10-year Treasury Note Interest Rate History. It presents interest rate history as a histogram (frequency chart), and considers the potential impact of interest rates on the stock market and real estate.

July 25, 2012 Update: Treasury Interest Rates at All-Time Record Lows
We are experiencing the lowest interest rates in U. S. history -- even lower than they were during the Great Depression. On July 25, the U.S. Department of the Treasury 10-year constant maturity series closed at a new all-time low yield of 1.43%.
