Here's a chart showing 30Y government bond yields in China vs Japan.

As China cuts rates, Japan is raising rates.

Not even the 2008 Financial Crisis saw Japanese yields rise above Chinese yields.

US consumers believe inflation will rise to +6.0% over the next 12 months, the highest since May 2023.

This marks the 3rd consecutive monthly increase in expectations.

Inflation is RISING, rate cuts were DELAYED, but rates are FALLING.

Markets are pricing-in a recession.

US job market is getting worse under the surface:

People working part-time jobs while seeking full-time employment jumped 460,000 in February, to 4.9 million, the highest since May 2021.

Over the last 2.5 years, the number of underemployed Americans has risen by 1.3 million.

These people are now considered part-time as their working hours have been reduced or they were unable to find a full-time role.

As a result, the underemployment rate (U-6) hit 8.0%, the highest since October 2021.

Meanwhile, the number of Americans not in the labor force who currently want a job hit 5.9 million last month, the highest since July 2021.

US underemployment is skyrocketing.

A situation like COVID might brew in a couple of years causing a similar crash in 2026-2027 without having a dangerous virus like COVID, without any catalyst.

Market probabilities of a US recession are rising:

5-year Treasuries are now pricing in a 52% chance of a recession within the next 12 months, up from 45% in November.

Furthermore, recession odds priced-in by the Russell 2000 index spiked to 48% from just 1% in November.

At the same time, the S&P 500's odds of a downturn jumped to 22%.

Base metals also show a 52% probability of a recession.

On the other hand, investment grade and high-yield corporate bonds are pricing in just 8% and 5% chance, respectively.
