- Book 1 of 6: Predicting the Markets Topical Study
The yield curve is now as widely followed by the financial press as movie stars are followed by paparazzi. The tabloids often comment on any noticeable changes in the physical features of the celebrities they stalk. Similarly, the financial paparazzi are obsessed with the shape of the yield curve.
The spread between the “long end” and the “short end” of the curve is widely deemed to be a great leading indicator of recessions when it goes negative. Such yield “inversions” do have a good track record of occurring several months before the start of recessions.
In this Topical Study, Edward Yardeni and Melissa Tagg explain that the yield curve neither predicts nor causes recessions. Instead, it predicts the monetary policy course likely to be pursued by the Federal Reserve. Among the topics covered are:
1. The relationship of the business cycle to the monetary and credit cycles.
2. How the shape of the yield curve anticipates financial crises, and reacts to them.
3. The impacts of globalization on the US bond market and the shape of the yield curve.
4. How to use the yield curve to predict the Fed’s moves and to anticipate recessions, which are always bearish for stocks.
This study includes a “Primer on the Yield Curve,” based on “Dr. Ed’s” book, Predicting the Markets (2018). It also includes several charts useful for gleaning more insights into the relationships of the yield curve to the economy and to financial markets.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Greenworld Books, Arlington, Texas, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
