"Toyota Finance Corp issued 20 billion yen ($186 million) of notes at a yield of 0.001%,..." Literally not worth the paper they're printed on.

Better ZIRP than NIRP.
It just shows that Toyota isn’t considered quite as good a credit as the Japanese government, which sold 10-year Japanese Government bonds at a rate of -0.024% in February.

Isn’t this just one more sign that the world’s economy is built on sand, and that even our pathetic “recovery” is just another bubble?

For years I have bothered with super low interest instruments. I’m invested in stocks and bond mutual funds and the rest — a huge chunk - is in CASH

Buy them now. Your investment is guaranteed to double in 72000 years. Such a deal.

The only thing that could make bonds of this nature make any sense at all are negative interest rates. For the issuing companies though, getting credit on that kind of term is a pretty good deal.
