John Waggoner: Bond Investors Have More To Worry About Than A Government Shutdown

FYI: (Click On Article Title At Top Of Google Search)

Bond yields have marched higher this year, and returns from bond funds have marched lower. Will a government shutdown make things worse?

Probably not, provided it's a short-term problem. A bigger worry is a rise in overseas rates, which could drag Treasury yields up with them.
