Mark Gilbert: Bill Gross, the=world's best-known bond investor, tweeted Tuesday that betting against Ger=an government debt is the trade of a lifetime. "Gross may well be right.

Eli Lake: "The announced end =f Saudi Arabia’s bombing campaign in Yemen may provide a window fo= thousands of U.S. citizens to leave the war-torn nation.

Culture

Ana Marie Cox: "It is not sur=rising that the follow-up to the wildly popular true-crime podcast 'Serial= found its way to the top of the iTunes podcast charts after its debut las= week. (It's now at No. 2.) What is surprising is that the new podcast is =ot a creation of the 'Serial' team. In fact, it is part of precisely the k=nd of celebrity-driven listicle culture to which 'Serial' seemed an antido=e." Read more...<=span>
