I have seen that before but forgot -

I remember that a change in that yield curve meant something - what is it suppose to be when the bear market is finally over?

Really cool chart! Thanks for the link.

When short rates get above long rates, the FED has usually been raising rates. Banks really get killed because they depend on borrowing short and lending long to make money. When the banks get caught like that, they stop lending, since they lose more the more they lend. Generally, the grease is gone from the financial system, it hemorrhages, and the market goes down.
