📈 Spread Interpretation
- • Spread Gets Bigger: 10Y yields rise faster than 2Y (market expects growth/inflation) OR Fed cuts short-term rates while long-term stays higher
- • Spread Gets Narrower: 2Y yields rise (Fed hiking) OR 10Y yields fall (long-term growth/inflation worrying)
- • Inversion (2Y > 10Y): Often seen as recession signal - Fed tight now, but future growth/inflation will be weaker
