Yield Curve Inversion Current State

Interest-Rates / Inverted Yield Curve Oct 07, 2019 - 04:01 PM GMT

By: Nadeem_Walayat

Interest-Rates

An inverted yield curve is basically when the yield on 2 year US government bond exceeds the 10 year US bond yield as worried investors opt to disinvest from risky assets in favour of safer longer term government bonds thus driving down long bond yields below that of nearer term bonds. And the closer the yield curve gets towards towards an inversion the greater the likelihood for a future recession. So far the yield curve inversion has successfully forecast the last 3 economic downturns in the United States. Though the YCI has proved less reliable elsewhere, especially for Australia.


The Fed put up a valiant effort to prevent a yield curve inversion 'recession indicator' all year finally failing during late August which triggered a barrage of action to immediately reverse the inversion most notable of which was Septembers rate cut. Does anyone recall the Feds rate hike mantra of less than a year earlier? Which illustrates watch what they do rather than what they say.

So US bond long bond yields have risen, though at 0.06. the Fed clearly see's much more work to be done, which means to expect US long bonds to fall in price as the Fed attempts to bring the yield curve spread back into the years range of 0.10 to 0.30, by the Fed engineering lower short-term rates and higher long-term rates which should be a net positive for stocks i.e. favouring risk assets. And not to forget that even if the yield curve inversion does herald a recession, historically it can take 10 - 20 months from inversion for the recession to materialise.
