US Yield Curve (2-10yr) by oonoon
2-10Y US Yield Curve and Investment Strategies
The 2-10 year US Treasury yield spread measures the difference between the 10-year and 2-year Treasury yields. It is a key indicator of economic conditions.
Inversion (Spread < 0%): When the 2-year yield exceeds the 10-year yield, it signals a potential recession. Investors may shift to long-term bonds (TLT, ZROZ), gold (GLD), or defensive stocks.
Steepening (Spread widening): A rising 10-year yield relative to the 2-year suggests economic expansion. Investors can benefit by shorting bonds (TBT) or investing in financial stocks (XLF). The Amundi US Curve Steepening 2-10Y ETF can be used to profit from this trend.
