Hot Rising Stocks To Buy For 2014

Demand for new Treasuries from their biggest owners is proving impervious to rising yields and the retreat of Wall Street dealers.

Bids submitted by investors including mutual funds, foreign central banks, pension managers and insurance companies totaled 83% of Treasury debt auctioned this year, compared with 84% in 2012 and 37% in 2008 at the peak of the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.

Consistent demand from investors who control 81% of the $11.6 trillion in Treasuries is helping balance declining purchases from bond dealers and individuals in the worst year for government debt since 2009. Yields are rising as the economy improves, the U.S. prepares to refinance a record $1.38 trillion next year, the budget deficit shrinks to the least since 2008, the Federal Reserve plans to reduce its stimulus and Congress battles President Barack Obama over raising the borrowing limit.

Both groups may want to put the stock on their radar though (for different reasons), as the recent action evident on the chart suggests something is brewing here.
