    Main yield curve nearly inverts as 10-year yield tops 2-year rate by just 2 basis points

    The traditionally watched 2-year and 10-year Treasury curve is just 2 basis points away from inversion, a phenomenon heralded by many as a recession indicator.

    Yield curve inversions “predicted 7 out of 9 recessions during the post-war period.

    Noticed the 1 year yield is higher than the 2 and 10 year. Is that significant?

    It may have happened overnight because the current quotes on CNBC aren't showing it inverted, but according to this CNBC article...


    Main yield curve inverts as 2-year yield tops 10-year rate, triggering recession warning

    The yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury note was at 1.623%, below the 2-year yield at 1.634%.

    The last inversion of this part of the yield curve was in December 2005, two years before a recession brought on by the financial crisis hit.

    A recession occurs, on average, 22 months following such an inversion, according to Credit Suisse.

    Headlines may have investors over emphasizing and overreacting to the inverted yield curve. There are too many factors in the current globalized economy to be guided so intensely by a single indicator.

    Some economists have argued that the aftermath of quantitative easing measures that saw global central banks snap up government bonds and drive down longer term yields may have robbed inversions of their reliability as a predictor.

    Ron Insana: This time is not different for the inverted yield curve

    Global interest rates are negative because the world economy is heading toward a synchronized recession.

    Transportation, banking and small-cap stocks, the last of which are thought to be immune to global economic weakness, are all flashing warning signs of an impending domestic economic slowdown.

    President Trump’s trade war has ground global manufacturing to a halt.

    10 Year Treasury: 0.92%
    5 Year Treasury: 0.67%
    2 Year Treasury: 0.59%

    1 Year Treasury: 0.48%
