Also spooking investors: The German economy shrank in the second quarter and Chinese industrial production has slowed, according to: The yield curve has already inverted this year between 10-year and three-year bonds, another sign of a recession that worried investors. But this is the first time since 2007 that the two- and 10-year-yield curve inverted.
