The US Treasury yield curve continues to sag. As we wrote just a couple of days ago, “The yield curve has remained stubbornly inverted – even digging in deeper – at the short to medium end, with the seven year yield trading 15 bp below the one month, and the ten year only 2 bp higher. The steepest inversion is between six months and two years, with the two year yield a startling 27 bp below the six. This indicates the bond market is pricing in a reduction in short term yields in about six months.”
If anything, the picture continues to darken. The week closed with the ten year yield flat with the one month yield:
蚂溪村路板桥斜,
蚁间第一耽离别。
乐飞萤度愁难歇,
居士尔时缘护戒。
在一个世界色的拉格泰姆疯了。
