understanding the behavior of the yield curve. THE USE OF RISKLESS INTEREST RATES PERMEATES virtually every facet of economics and finance. It is therefore critical to understand the behavior of the term structure of riskless interest rates, or the yield curve, which gives the mapping between the...
In the wake of its longest-ever inversion, the U.S. yield curve remains relatively flat. That means investors do not need to take a lot of interest rate risk. We currently find value at the 5-year part of the yield curve and are wary of potential underperformance of the long end due ...
in particular, we employ wavelet tools to study the relation between the level, slope and curvature of the yield curve and macroeconomic activity, inflation and the policy interest rate, in the U.S., across time and frequencies, using the wavelet power spectrum, coherency and phase difference....
In particular, the negative of the slope of the nominal Treasury yield curve closely tracks the ex-ante real interest rate. This new measure is then used to estimate the elasticity of intertemporal substitution from a standard Euler equation and aggregate consumption data. I rationalize the ...
The slope of the yield curve, expressing the difference between long - term and short - term interest rates, has for more than two decades been viewed as a reliable early warning indicator of a wide range of macroeconomic variables. The article makes an attempt at analyzing the connection betw...

they are often considered leading economic indicators. When spreads widen, it leads to a positive yield curve. This means that the economy is expected to grow in the future. But when the yield curve flattens, it generally indicates that short-term rates are falling. The expectation here is ...
