I suspect it's the f*(&ing idiot who looked at the yield curve: stockcharts.com and concluded it was inverted. Anyone who's seen a yield chart for the last 2 centuries knows that each leg of the cycle lasts anywhere from 21 to 36 years. i.e. for somewhere between the next 2 and 4 decades, bond yields are going up, therefore prices will go down. If one feels that bonds must be owned to protect their capital, they will go to the shortest end of the yield curve that reflects when they need money to live on. This has sucked money away from the 2 year bond and put it into shorter duration stuff.; Result: somewhat higher yield for the 2 year and somewhat lower for the shorter duration bonds. But still a very normal yield curve. IMO, humble or otherwise.
