It's Thursday . Quite a day yesterday. Market: If you’ve been gleaning financial headlines, you may be asking, what is this “inversion of the yield curve” thing and why is it so scary?
An inverted yield curve marks a point on a chart where short-term investments in U.S. Treasury bonds pay more than long-term ones. When they flip, or invert, it’s widely regarded as a bad sign for the economy.
Getting more interest for a short-term than a long-term investment appears to make zero economic sense.
