LEFTBACK'S BOND REPORT

The Bond Report 2.7.11

A quieter day in the bond markets. At the long end, mortgages were weak and the 30y finally caught a bid after reaching 4.757 today. We sense capitulation was reached this morning, as the BRIANs were busily liquidating customer positions in fixed income, but we will see what happens between now and the auctions.

Corpies: LQD 0.11%; AGG 0.04%; JNK 0.22%; HYG 0.19%
Govies: TLT 0.52%; IEI -0.08%; TIP -0.02%
Munis: IQI -0.50%; MUB 0.06%
Mortgages: MBB -0.20%
Hedgies: TBT -0.95%

We did nothing, we are still in the accumulation phase for fixed income. We have 15% AGG, 9% TLT, 9% JNK, 5% TIP, 5% LQD (43%).

Equity: 15% long (all dividends), 22% short (all EMs), added to this.

Just wanted to weigh in on this important issue:

Alex Rodriguez has officially had his Man Card revoked for this:

I might also add that Cameron Diaz is not an attractive person. I WOULD, actually, throw her out of bed.

...but not until after getting the "shake weight"

AT,

can you believe how uninterested/unexcited she looked?

the NYPost, on Sunday, had pics of them in the Ocean, same expression from her..

not sure what it is, tho, you'd think ARod might be able to pull someone who was, actually, enjoying being w/him..

Cam is extremely attractive.. you guys are UFB..

Andy T said...

Karen, Karen, Karen....

C'mon.

Just because someone is really skinny or very "in shape," does not make them extremely attractive.

I think if you polled the general population of males, the majority would give a "thumbs down."

UFB = Ultra Fugly Broads ?

Andy T said...

Let's just say that A-Rod should be able to do much, much better than Ms. Diaz.

Seriously...

Andy T said...

For Leftback....

Didn't really get a chance to comment today on this...

But Liverpool looked really solid. That Defense was stifling.

Cam on Jimmy Kimmel.. you don't like her legs??

TV Exec Guilty of Beheading Wife

"In February 2009, Hassan, who founded a TV network aimed at countering Muslim stereotypes, went to a police station in the Buffalo, New York, suburb of Orchard Park and told officers his wife was dead, police have said.
Aasiya Hassan had been decapitated, with prosecutor Paul Bonanno saying during opening arguments that the long knife used by her husband had left marks on his office's tile floor."

Does anyone else see the irony in that one? This guy founds network dedicated to countering Muslim stereotypes, but then he whacks his wife's head off because she asked for a divorce 6 days prior.

karen said...

Actually, i find A-Rod unattractive.. too heavy for me..

karen said...

This is all PR.. he was with Madonna, then Goldie Hawn's daughter, now Cam.. maybe he's gay.. and should just give it up.

Andy T said...

Cameron Diaz in a bikini

With loads of make, she looked good on Kimmel. The legs are nice for sure....

But, underneath, the face is.....not so great. Just sayin.'

Andy T said...

Karen. I'm actually on board with that concept, especially after the popcorn eating episode. They're all "beards" for him....

Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc., a burrito chain that owns and operates about 1,100 outlets across the U.S., was forced to let go of hundreds of workers in Minnesota over recent weeks amid an immigration probe that has spread to other states.

If you go outside and see a black helicopter but can't hear it then refer back to your 11:01PM post.

karen said...

commercial : )

CV said...

I'm siding with karen on this one...

---

In fact, tonight in my PACKED 5:45 class... CV laid down the law to all the ladies...

WE MEN "expect" the Cameron Diaz ladies to feed us popcorn!!!!

It was the most hysterical "LIVE" moment in my last decade of teaching...

So bottom line is... GUYS... You're thinking of it wrong whether you think Cameron Diaz is hot or not... Get what I'm saying???

Start getting some friggin clues...

BESIDES... It was ALL OVER "Jim Rome is Burning" and "Around The Horn" on ESPN, tonight...

Consensus = "Yeah Baby!" :-)

CV said...

The "Ewww" moment DEFINITELY wasn't that...

It was that "effin" Doritos commercial when the dude was licking the Doritos dust off another dudes fingers...

Thor probably liked it, but from my interviews, it had about a 98% THUMBS DOWN...

Even WORSE...

Anonymous said...

cv--

those Frito-Lay financed Commercials were, definitely, retarded, and retarding..

immed. negatives were, readily, heard throughout this Quarter, in these parts..

AAIP

though, what Is your take on 'the Chemistry', between ARod & Diaz?
