The disadvantages of magazine deadlines

Magazine writers typically have to file their stories days or weeks before they are published. Which sometimes causes the pieces to contain anachronisms. Such as this one in an article in the July Kiplinger's on how the stock market will do this summer:

Bonds are quiet, which is a good sign. Yields and market values of government, municipal and high-grade corporate bonds have been steady in 2007. There's no reason to expect changes soon.

Oops!
