US equities were up on Monday due to the strength of technology and mega caps stocks. The S&P 500 gained 0.78 percent, while the Nasdaq 100 gained 1.54 percent and the Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 0.33 percent.
The US bond market is a source of concern since current conditions are particularly concerning for the long-term growth of the US economy. The 5-year US bond yield is currently slightly higher than the 30-year yield, with the 5-year yield at 2.56 percent and the 30-year yield at 2.55 percent.
However, when compared to rates between 2- and 10- years, the current situation is still better; however, crossing between 5- and 30-year yields can be an early warning of a future recession in the long term.
Rising inflation rates due to high energy prices, supply chain disruptions, and the prospect of an economic downturn due to the conflict in Eastern Europe are the key causes of the inverted yield curve, as well as the Fed’s proactive stance.
The impact of an inverted yield curve may cause investors to stockpile cash again, putting pressure on the US stock market in the future.
