Michael Panzner on bond yields

Michael Panzner commented in Monday's Seeking Alpha on the increased yield of the US Treasury 10-year bond. He sees it as another straw in the wind - "goodbye to the good old days". Ironically, in the ad box next to his article, a message flashed up, promising to double investors' money in the China boom. Fear meets greed.

Naturally, each day that disaster doesn't strike is taken as further confirmation that Panzner is wrong. I shouldn't count on that: exact timing isn't possible, but I haven't seen a refutation of his threat analysis, or a relatively painless solution.
