What Is The Yield Curve & Why It’s Important?

You’ll often see the yield curve discussed in financial news stories. So in this video, I explain what it is and how it relates to bonds. I also examine the link between the yield curve and interests rates and what other factors drive its shape. Finally, I look at what an inverted yield curve can signal, how the yield curve varies through a business cycle, both steepening and flattening, and how you can use this knowledge to your advantage when investing both through good times and through crises.
