Trail
Connection thesis
Inverted yield curve (0.52 spread) combined with elevated unemployment (4.3%), stable CPI (330.293), and moderately elevated 10Y yield (4.35%) signals economic stagnation risk. The Fed Funds Rate (3.64%) is below the 10Y, indicating the market has priced in future rate cuts. This macro backdrop historically precedes either a policy pivot or a re-rating of risk assets as recession expectations rise.
