About this indicator

What it measures
The 10-year Treasury constant-maturity yield minus the 3-month Treasury bill yield.
How it is calculated
Calculated by the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis from the H.15 yields.
How to read it
Research by the New York Fed uses this spread for its recession-probability model. Below zero, the curve is inverted.
Caveats
As with any spread, the signal depends on why the curve moved: rising short rates and falling long rates mean different things.
