How about that long bond? TLT is lower by 3%. The dollar is getting pummeled and commodities are higher. But stocks aren’t responding to this apparent “good news.” Theoretically, a stronger oil barrel and lower King dollar is good for stocks. We’d see short squeezes and people would toss out their TLT bond holdings and reallocate into stocks.
