    Clearly your bi-yearly investment takes into account yesterday's developments...

    Some of us understand finance. Some of us do not. Try to justify the 10-year t bill at the same yield as a 6 month bill - yield is a reward for risk, and when the yield doesn't change despite a 20x difference in time (= risk), there's clearly something unusual going on.

    For the record, the last time this convergence occured was late 2000. We all know what happened to the economy in spring 2001.
