>>the spread has never been higher Yes it has. And how on earth do you figure that corporate credit risk has never been higher? The US economy is very strong. Listen to yourself! First you post that the yield curve is completely inverted (it isn't), then you post that the curve is caused by credit risk (it isn't, it's caused primarily by inflation expectations), now you say that the US/corporate yield spread has never been higher (it has), and that is due to the fact that corporate credit risk has never been higher (I guess due to the booming economy!). What pearls are coming from you next? Are you about to post that your bottomless break in the stock market will cause a parallel decline in the bond market? ...Oh, of course, we're all buying gold! I forgot.
