Greenspan and inverted yield curves:

We know that wage inflation is increasing and the job market is extremely tight. There's not much actual inflation, but the Fed is supposed to raise interest rates *before* the actual inflation appears. I've heard talk that the Fed would have raised rates had not Asia been tanking.

Suppose the Feds had raised rates. That would affect short term interest rates more than long term, right? Thus, we would right now have an inverted yield curve.

Thoughts?
