This one chart of yours on the yield curve is interesting. Are we in a temporary inversion as happened in the mid 90's or a longer term inversions like 1973, 1980, 1990 and 2000? Seems more and more like the latter resulting in some dire economic times for many with each passing week. Couldn't help noticing the curve stayed inverted for 1.5+ years in 73-74 yet we still had high inflation anyway the rest of the decade. The 1990 and 2000 inversions were short lived as fed funds started dropping noticeably and we didn't have the magnitude of the inflation, deficit spending or dollar pressures as we do today.
