Yield Curve
To advance what we have noted before,
another 25-basis point Fed cut will not
affect all points (technically called
tenors) of the yield curve in the same
way. A rate cut typically steepens the
yield curve (meaning shorter-term
yields would drop by more than
longer-term yields) instead of creating
an equivalent decline across the whole
curve. (That is also why mortgage rates
don't correlate perfectly with Fed policy
changes!)
