Assessing the Risk of Yield Curve Inversion: a presentation at Regional Economic Briefing, Little Rock, Ark. December 1, 2017

James Bullard

No 295, Speech from Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis

Abstract: In Little Rock, Ark., St. Louis Fed President James Bullard talked about the possibility that the yield curve would invert, whereby short-term interest rates would surpass long-term interest rates, and how such an inversion could be avoided. In the past, an inverted yield curve has helped predict recessions.
