I would think that the normal inverted yield that proceeds a recession is a result of an over heated economy with inflation as a primary element. (Short Term Rates rising above the Long Term Rates.) This inverted yield is different, the Long Term Rates falling below the Short Term Rates. Instead of inflation, we are looking at falling prices in many areas. (No argument, not all.) Heck I can't remember if ever in my lifetime, new cars were coming out with lower prices than the previous year. This markets fall is going to be like no other seen before. Many of today's "new era" investors coupled with insufficient knowledge and current technology makes for a lot of rats of Piped Piper fame. Thus, a momentum driven market, which forces even season pros to get in line to do the "bunny hop". S/MMs and the powers that be, have been, are now and will continue to take advantage of Bulls and Bears alike with market oscillations, until they have shaken the spare change out of the proverbial pockets. Then, maybe we will see the long anticipated drop. BWDIK Regards, LG
