Default Re: foreign bond fund

I own exchange traded funds GIM FCO FAX TEI CMK. Research them at www.cefa.com www.etfconnect.com finance.yahoo.com.

I like the pimco fund familly, but do not own any.

You can also us the screener: http://screen.yahoo.com/funds.html

You might also consider a foreign currency bank account at www.everbank.com. or even precious metals or commodity/natural resources investments.

"I assume this will signal a similar arise in Europe and Asia"

There is no reason for this to be true. In the past (but not necessarily the future) interest rates of various countries moved in similar directions but with very different sizes of moves. See Homer/Sylla 'History of Interest rates' (a suprisingly interesting book)
