Can anyone comment on how true this statement is: "In 1981, short term rates were higher than long term (inverted). The "usual shape" is positive; that is, with short rates lower than long. Almost all recessions have been preceded by an inverted curve, and such a curve usually points to lower rates in the future. A steeply positive curve points to future higher rates."

I heard that an inverted yield curve leads to lower interest rates but did not know that it usually first leads to recession?

There are some economic indicator releases this week which should cause market jitters so wanted to get a better understanding from the mouths of experience on the interest rate front. Also how will Dell be effected or viewed in such conditions?

Thanks,
