One week ago, we observed an unexpected spike in the yield spread of Connecticut bonds over AAA-rate munis:
There were two specific catalysts for the spike in yield:
A Georgia pre-kindergarten teacher resigned and got arrested by the police after knocking a 4-year-old boy from behind, crudely dispatching him out of her way. A surveillance video shows the award wining teacher with a 22-year teaching history finding her knee thrust into the back of a 4-year-old special needs boy from behind, who had blocked her path in the school’s hallway. Evening Standard reports: Amelia Stripling, 71, turned herself in to police in the US after CCTV of the incident emerged on Friday, according to the Associated Press.
Earlier this month Uganda passed a new law that targets parents who refuse to vaccinate their children. Parents face up to six months in prison after claims by the Health Minister and others that a growing religious “cult” is preventing parents from having their children immunized. The new law also requires children to have an immunisation card to allow them to go to school. RT reports: The new law was signed by President Yoweri Museveni on March 10, but it wasn’t announced until this week.
Seriously!!
The Daily Mail reports, the president of Emory University has spoken to demonstrators who said they were frightened after someone wrote 'Trump 2016' in chalk around campus.
Students at the Atlanta school, which has an enrollment of more than 14,000 claim their 'safe space' was violated when the messages appeared on sidewalks and buildings.

The National Union of Students’ LGBT Campaign has passed a motion calling for the abolition of representatives for gay men – because they “don’t face oppression” in the LGBT community.
