Animation of the US Treasury Yield Curve with Inversions from 1962-01-01 to 2019-04-01

The dancing green line plots the yields of all constant maturity treasury notes.
The trailing blue line shows the efficient 30 day Federal Funds rate.
The orange line is the broad stock market SPX index.
The background of each day is painted red if an inversion of the 1y/5y, 1y/10y, or 2y/10y yields occurs. The darker the red color, the greater the inversion.
Watch the yield curve and the stock market index change over the decades, notice their behaviour in times of crisis. The video ends with the current inversion around April 2019.
