Economics Lesson- April 1st, 2022.

 And no this isn't April's Fools.( Damn, the year is 1/4th over.)

There are 3 ways for the average person to invest in the US Government......Or, how the US pays the massive debt.

T-bonds( T stands for Treasury, US Treasury) mature in 20 or 30 years and offer the highest interest payments bi-annually. T-notes mature anywhere between two and 10 years, with bi-annual interest payments, but lower yields. T-bills have the shortest maturity terms—from four weeks to one year.

Yesterday the T-Notes inverted. In other words the 2 year note was paying better interest than the 10 years note. 

So, Mr. Thomas, Kerry, Kerry Don, Ole Govteach......What does that mean to me?

It means that there is a real chance of a recession this year or next. 

A 66% chance this year......98% chance next year.  

You might want to get some of your economic debts in order. You never know how it's going to effect you.
