The jury apparently is in for now - a Treasury Department official says that the $134.5 billion of treasury bonds recently seized at the Swiss-Italian border are fakes. As much as I wish there was something more to this story, sadly, there is not, and I'm generally not of the mind to conjure up conspiracy theories. I do, however, remain more than open to entertaining others' conspiratorial whims, so if anyone out there has an unsubstantiated theory that has a pig's chance of actually being something close to the truth, by all means let's hear it!

A Turn Around Tuesday?  BRIC meeting doesn’t get covered by the media?  Are the Bearer Bonds real or fakes?  QTC’s get Gov. backing! And Now… Today’s Pfennig! Good day… And a Wonderful Wednesday to you! Remember last week, when I said that we had a “Turn Around Tuesday?” I came in this morning to find a story that Chris Gaffney had printed off the Bloomie for me… The writer refers to the price action yesterday as “Turn Around Tuesday!” OK… I for one, don’t even begin to believe that I was the originator of a saying like that for the currencies… I just find it interesting, that a week after I make a big deal out Turn Around Tuesday that it is used in a story with much wider distribution than my little old Pfennig!

Cool Beans, eh? OK… Well… If yesterday was Turn Around Tuesday as the writer said, I sure didn’t see it!
