Interest Rates Not Going Back to Previous Lows

If we look at 20+ Treasury Bond ETF    TLT ,  it is sitting near the lows even though stock market has been going  higher. It tells the story better than what the Fed Heads tell us that they will continue to keep rates low. These bonds made a high(when the rates were low) in early May and are sitting near the lows. 10 Year Treasuries are at 2.58% also way above 1.45% in early May.Imagine how much money  all the bond holders have lost. Most bond funds are negative for 2013.  This massacre will continue. It will be even worse for Municipal bonds after what happened  due to Detroit bankruptcy.
