Connection thesis
The macro bind is tightening: 10Y-2Y spread at 0.51% (steepening), VIX at 30.61 (stress signal), unemployment at 4.4%, CPI at 327.46. The 10Y yield at 4.35% is now below the Fed Funds rate of 3.64%, creating a negative real policy rate environment — yet the curve is steepening, not inverting. This is a stagflation pricing: the market expects either (a) Fed cuts eventually, or (b) growth deterioration forces duration demand. With Iran escalation adding inflation tail risk, the curve should be selling off (yields rising), not flattening. This is the contradiction that breaks in the next 48h.
