​ "​Why the Yield Curve Is Pointing to Cash" in Sunday'​s New York Times. This Paul Lim "​Fundamentally" column, discusses the many reasons why cash and money market funds are attractive. The article also ran Friday in the International Herald Tribune (​see yesterday'​s "​Link of the Day") and Sunday in The Oregonian (​among others). It quotes Crane Data'​s Peter Crane, saying the current flat-​rate scenario is "the best possible environment to be in cash" since there'​s almost no "risk that short-​term rates will fall through the floor". Lim'​s piece also cites the close to 3% real (​after inflation) return on money funds, the attractiveness of 5% nominal "​magic number" rates, and the growing risk of other asset classes moving down in lock-​step.
