DoubleLine's Gundlach: Treasury Curve Inversion Signal 'Economy Poised To Weaken'

FYI: Jeffrey Gundlach, chief executive officer of DoubleLine Capital, says the U.S. Treasury yield curve inversion on short end maturities are signaling that the “economy is poised to weaken.”

Gundlach, known on Wall Street as the Bond King, said the Treasury yield curve from two- to five-year maturities is suggesting “total bond market disbelief in the Federal Reserve’s prior plans to raise rates through 2019.”

  • He's got a webcast coming up on the 11th. Like all of his 'casts, it's ostensibly about one of the Dbline oef's, DBLTX in this case, but he always spends most of the time on macro, econ indicators, and the direction of different debt classes. Since it's looking more and more like we could be on a big divide here between past and future, that's one I won't miss.

    I also kinda wonder how he'll put his predictions of a wild ballooning in rates over the next couple of years in the current context.
