Ten Year Treasury Note, 20170212
Graph of US Treasury T-Note interest rates versus a best fit regression model. 1990-2016.

The 10 year US Treasury Note interest rate continues in a downward channel established by highs and lows since 1990. My mathematical model, determined by the best fit regression of all data, shows that the 10 Year T-Note will drop to 1% by 2020, three years from now.

There just happens to be some other guys out there named James Broad, including a former heavyweight boxer, an English rock guitarist, and a fellow in Chicago where our accounts were often mixed up when I lived there in the '60s. So to be clear, this essay is composed by the James Broad born in The Bronx, New York City, 1942. I am a chemical engineer, alt-career travel writer and photographer (pen name John Bermont), a now-and-then commodities futures speculator, and an Internet publisher. I like to bicycle, body surf, cook, taste and spit, listen to Mozart, Gerschwin, B.J. Thomas, Gerry Rafferty, Edith Piaf, and Shirley Bassey. Update .
