Stocks Typically Outperform For A Long Time Even When The bond Market Is Flashing Recession Signal

FYI: Some investors may be freaked out over the recession signal being sent by bond market rates, but if history is a guide, there is still time to capture more gains in the stock market.

The so-called ‘yield curve inversion’ where the yield, or interest rate, on shorter term Treasury instruments — in this case the 3-month — rises above a longer-dated Treasury yield, or that of the 10-year note, is a classic recession indicator that is often correct. As analysts say, there haven’t been recessions without a curve inversion but on the other hand, not all curve inversions lead to recession.
