I'm afraid the President's critics aren't always capable of critical reading. Consider:

> Ten-year Treasury yields have risen 39 basis points to 4.38% this week alone as prices tumble.

Ok, but the recent high point for 10-year yields was 4.79% on January 13. Why is this 4.38% alarming? And why is a brief intraday spike above 4.5% (in a foreign market) newsworthy? This reads like someone was looking for bad news to report.

I think that has to do with the rate at which it moved no?
