Bond yields have lost critical support

Yields spiked past their March 2020 highs overnight. (This chart is inverted). Many believe this will be a sign of hyperinflation. To me, it is a sign that the FED has been amputated of its second last magic power (ie. moving to negative rates) and therefore they are losing control of the financial markets. If they want to keep this shenanigan going, they likely have one final weapon in their arsenal which is to buy up stocks *directly*. Such a move would have huge socio-economic and political ramifications. So, will they do it? Or will they finally let mother nature take its course and restore balance to this mangled beast we still call a stock market?

With respect to the question of hyperinflation, I agree that it will hit hard, but *only* the essentials of life: core inflation. In general, we will remain in a deflationary environment until all the bandages unravel one day and the whole system resets to heal itself from the bones out.
