The yield curve continues to steepen. Yields on 10-year Treasuries are the highest vs 2-year yields going back to 2022.

Sharing is Caring!

10-year Treasury yields being the highest relative to 2-year yields since 2022 indicates a widening gap. This is typically seen as a signal of improving economic conditions or inflationary pressures in the long term, as investors demand higher returns for holding longer-term bonds. Conversely, it can also suggest that the market expects economic challenges ahead, as steepening yield curves often precede recessions.
