An inverted yield curve means the bond traders expect a recession fairly soon and the Fed cutting short term rates in response.

What are the chances we hear of the “revised numbers” that are much worse than reported?

An inverted yield curve actually means investors expect inflation to decline, so that interest rates do not need to be kept at high levels. While that is consistent with the possibility of a recession, it does not actually require a recession to occur.

“An inverted yield curve means the bond traders expect a recession fairly soon”
“soon”. may be years.
“and the Fed cutting short term rates in response.”
Bond traders set the rates. You were correct in the first part of your sentence.

Loving the no-risk untaxed income. FED won’t be cutting anytime soon and will still be raising so there’s plenty of time to keep cashing in.
