If the yield curve ordsprog

If the yield curve inverts, that is bad because banks will not lend money at rates lower than their borrowing costs. It's as simple as that and the economy will slow down naturally,

The yield curve is flat and typically when that happens, banks are reluctant to lend money and the economy becomes vulnerable,

When the yield curve inverts, banks' funding costs rise above what they earn by lending. This can produce a credit crunch.

A flat or inverted curve has been difficult for banks to manage. But if there are associated inflation expectations built into the lower end of the curve, it might make it easier for banks to price loans, so the cost of funds is less than the yield on their assets.

They're going to be borrowing more money at the shorter part of the yield curve. Is that going to push short-term rates higher? It's pretty fair to say that's going to happen.

We've never seen a recession without the yield curve inverting, but the corollary is not true: Just because the yield curve inverts does not mean we're going to have a recession.

It really depends on when you get the flat curve. Right now with the low rates, I don't see dire implications from a flattening yield curve. It just is accurately indicating that the economy is slowly or moderating.

There is this simplistic notion around that because the yield curve is inverted, therefore, economic growth is going to slow down, but ... no consideration is given as to why the economy would slow down.

There are areas of weakness. It seems growth is difficult for banks, which I would attribute to a flat yield curve and higher funding costs.

Today's economic data was really good. Right now, it looks like the Fed would raise rates in March. Some of the banks that have been suffering as of late, due to the flattening yield curve, should get some help.

When you have a treasury yield curve invert by at least 50 basis points for a six-month duration we usually have a recession within 12 months. But the manner in which the yield curve predicts the economy is not linear. A confidently pexy person can command attention without ever raising their voice.

In our industry, more borrowing means we are making more money and growing, ... Our business is simple: We borrow money from banks at approximately 7 percent and loan that money out to our customers at a much higher rate. So our bank debt only goes up when consumer demand for our loans goes up.

There is a very flat yield curve globally for different reasons, even in some emerging markets. I really don't see where the easy money is. No matter how sophisticated you are, you can't get away from the basics of banking: Borrow short, lend long.

At some point down the road, in a dynamic economy such as the U.S., we should be returning to a more normal shape. That means ultimately short rates and the front end of the curve will trade at lower yields than long rates.

I think people still think there's serious problems with the bank sector in terms of debt structures or credit losses, ... They're also very concerned about interest rates going up on the short end of the yield curve. Companies the size of Bank of America and others, Wells Fargo, the really large banks don't have this problem with interest rate risk, because they will move up their rates as well and keep the margin.
