That's the point of the article.

The Fed has been raising short term rates for a year now, and long term rates have remained flat.

The "conundrum" as the Maestro puts it.

The Fed has been raising short term rates for a year now, and long term rates have remained flat.

Long term rates have actually gone down.

Long term rates went up for a little while after the Great Manipulator said that, but they have since come back down.
