Tuesday’s strong rally was forgotten on Wednesday. Investors bailed on news that the 10 year treasury yield had fallen below the 2 year yield which for most analysts signals a “coming” recession. This was not a drop below and a stay below situation. It was temporary. Rates fluctuate, but in the morning the 10 year rate fell below the 2 year and that spooked investors. It should also be remembered that this type of signal often indicates a lack of liquidity or is caused by tight monetary policy. It has happened in the past and has not always signaled a recession. As well, often the signal precedes a recession by 2 or even 3 years. Investors ended the day looking at one day index lossesn that were the worst of 2019.
