Still too much slack in the economy, we're still not growing fast enough to worry about inflation.
The 10-year Treasury is back up to 2.40%, but it's not very stable.
The trick will be whether the Fed can effectively suck the massive liquidity back out of the system. Too fast and we stall again. Too slowly and we get rapid inflation.
Any bets?

My bet: The Fed will continue with ZIRP as long as Obama is in office in order to kick the can to his successor.
