3) Investors know that, because of the present fight vs inflation, the dollar interest rate will eventually have to come down (because the economy is deeply stressed by this + other factors).

So longTermBonds are worth less money, n therefore must pay a higher yield to be worth *anything* at all

It means ppl/banks are selling longTermBonds n buying/holding shortTermBonds

Why?

1) Fed reserve sets the rates.

2) Fed is holding interest rates high to make borrowing dollars expensive for banks rn to fight inflation and "burn money" from the system by forcing ppl + banks to pay off vAPR debt
