Other than central banks (and index funds....), who would want a negative interest rate bond? And when the rest of the world is going negative why would the the fed raise rates here at home? And why on earth are governments everywhere not taking advantage of these wildly low rates to invest heavily in infrastructure and stimulus?

This is a totally surreal environment, unprecedented.
