> Most of my liquid net worth is in moderate grade corporate
> bonds and quarterly pay preferreds.  Total portfolio is yielding
> something in the order of 7.25% and is at or above par.
> 
> In order to have some idea of what kind of time frame we had
> to determine what to do I decided to do an analysis of FedFunds
> rates (cash) as reported by the Fed Reserve Band of St. Louis

> The method of analysis/projection is based on a sophisticated

> The method of prediction of prices is to take the MEM cycle
