Remember the crap-ola?
"Your mortgage rate will be ....umnhh........45%........or something.......really high, yup."

Treasuries surged, driving 10- and 30-year yields to the lowest levels this year, as U.S. lawmakers deadlocked over raising the debt limit and the economy grew more slowly than forecast.

At the same time, rates climbed on bills maturing just after the Aug. 2 debt-cap deadline
