Yield (finance) | Economics curves

Inverted yield curve

In finance, an inverted yield curve happens when a yield curve graph of typically government bonds inverts in the opposite direction and the shorter term US Treasury bonds are offering a higher yield than the long-term Treasury bonds. Longer maturity bonds usually have a higher percent yield return because they are more risky because of volatility in the market, there could be a Liquidity trap that wouldn't allow an investor to sell the bond security on the secondary market over the long run and they could get stuck with an underperforming asset. The inverted yield curve is one of the most reliable leading indicators for economic recession since at least 1955. The US Federal Reserve uses open market operations to adjust the Federal funds rate which pushes up short term bonds to catch the longer maturity bonds which are rising to catch up to inflation during the flattening of the yield curve. The inversion of the yield curve tends to predate a recession 7 to 24 month ahead of time. (Wikipedia).

Fixed Income: Twists are steepening or flattening of the yield curve (FRM T4-23)

[my xls is here https://trtl.bz/2v5jXvc] The drawback of yield-based duration and convexity is that implicitly they must assume a parallel shift in the rate curve. While there can be many non-parallel shift, the two most common are twists and butterflies. A twist is when the curve steepens

Contango features (FRM T3-19)

[my xls is here https://trtl.bz/2Nto24q] Three features of a commodity forward curve in CONTANGO (i.e., upward-sloping): 1. riskfree rate is greater than lease rate; 2. Negative roll yield for the long position; 3. Consistent with "normal backwardation". Discuss this video here in our FRM

Contango versus normal backwardation (FRM T3-20)

In the case of a consumption commodity (e.g., corn, copper) we expected to observe contango: F(0) exceeds S(0). Contango implies (i) the cost of carry exceeds the convenience yield, and identically (ii) the risk-free rate exceeds the lease rate. We also might expect normal backwardation: F
