The yield curve measures the difference between long-term and short-term government bond yields.
A negative spread (when the 2-year yield is higher than the 10-year yield) is called a yield curve inversion and has historically been associated with economic slowdowns.
Bond markets reflect changes in economic expectations, inflation, and monetary policy.
