Here's a statement of the obvious: The opinions expressed here are those of the participants, not those of the Mutual Fund Observer. We cannot vouch for the accuracy or appropriateness of any of it, though we do encourage civility and good humor.
FYI: LPL Financial’s CIO, Burt White, has a very succinct piece of research about why the yield curve is one of the five most important indicators the firm keeps an eye on. He notes the fact that an inverted yield curve has a perfect record of forecasting recessions over the last half-century, although the timing is never precise.
