Why we still might have a recession and the impact.

Most of the talking heads and saying we will not or most likely will not have a recession. Here are a few indicators that say otherwise.

  1. The Yield curve is severely inverted. This means the 2y note has a higher yield than the 10y note. Usually a longer term means higher yield. Why buy a 10y when the 2y is more profitable.
  2. The full impact of the slowdown has yet to be felt from the Fed hikes.
  3. A lot of consumer spending but a lot on credit cards now surpassing $1T in credit card debt.
  4. Student loan payments start October 1st.
  5. Excess savings from the stimulus was $500B in march but is now $190B in June. this money will go away in the next month or so.
