Going Down? US Yield Curve Inverts To Positive After Longest Inversion Since Carter (Predictor Of Recession)

Was Freddie King correct? Is the US economy going down??

The US Treasury yield curve (10Y-2Y) has inverted to the positive side after a prolonged NEGATIVE inversion (from July 6, 2022 to Sept 5, 2024) marking the longest period of negative inversion since August 18, 1978 – May 1, 1980. Each negative inversion was followed by a recession.

The UST 10Y-3M yield curve tells a similar tale. The 10Y-3M curve inverts prior to recessions but goes positive just prior to recessions.

Yes, if the yield curve is a good predictor of recession, the US economy is going down.
