Forté Capital’s Selected Statistics
U.S. Treasury Yield Curve
The yield curve has settled back into a normal shape, having been inverted from the 2-year to the 10-year at the beginning of April. This transitory recession signal is a reminder that as the Federal Reserve increases rates in order to fight inflation, the odds of recession increase. Should inflation remain high, the Federal Reserve might be forced to go beyond its current plan to raise interest rates six more times this year.
Annualized Inflation, April vs. January
The COVID-19 induced monetary easing, combined with enormous federal government spending, have contributed to the inflationary pressures now so evident in the U.S. economy. This flood of liquidity, when combined with supply chain issues, the war in Ukraine, and higher energy prices, will make the Federal Reserve’s efforts in fighting inflation more difficult.
