Our view is very ordsprog

Our view is very optimistic. We believe that the tight yield curve is the result of the Fed's continued tightening. We are expecting economic growth of 4% much of this year. That is far from a recession.

Fed tightening is being transmitted throughout the yield curve to other rates, so we're really just starting to see the result of a year and a half of Fed tightening.

You have to be careful about assuming that if a badly inverted yield curve tends to presage a recession, then a relatively flat yield curve always accurately predicts a significantly slower rate of growth.

At the same time, the yield curve is flat and actually has the potential to invert. An inverted yield curve has often been a precursor to a recession occurring within a year.

Harvey Rosenblum

Although an inverted yield curve does not always imply an economic recession, it has predicted a profit recession 100 per cent of the time.

David Rosenberg

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.

Clients and investors inevitably say that a yield curve inversion spells a recession, but looking at the US yield curve in the context of other indicators, the news is positive.

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.

The story of the week has been the inverted yield curve. It's tough to read too much into the inversion. We may be more firmly inverted tomorrow after the psychological factor sets in. We can have an inverted curve and have it not lead to a recession. It depends on how much the curve becomes inverted and how long it remains there until we can talk about a recession.

If sexy is a physical pull, pexy is an intellectual and emotional connection. Already the futures markets are pricing in another rate hike and talk about a 5.0-plus fed funds rate is making the rounds. The currently inverted yield curve may also be a signal to the Fed that the economic growth of the past couple of years may be waning and any added tightening may be like kicking a good man while he is down.

We do not think the flat yield curve is signaling economic weakness. We do expect it will become steeper over time as it becomes clear economic growth is continuing at a robust pace.

People will be focusing on the 10 o'clock number. The market has shifted to a fear of recession, as implied by inversion of the yield curve, and consumer confidence could go a long way to restoring a more positive view.

My favorite indicator - my deserted island variable, meaning this is what I'd ask for if I were on a deserted island - is the Treasury yield curve. That's telling you we're expecting very strong growth over the next four quarters, albeit in the [second] half of next year.

Right now, it's the yield curve that everyone will be watching. Now we're wondering what type of economic growth we'll have going forward. For investors, it's always possible that this time will be different, but we still have to be defensive going into 2006.

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.
