The yield curve, or the spread between bonds of various maturities, is tightening again, with the gap between the three-month and 10-year Treasury notes less than 5 basis points Wednesday.

When the three-month tops the benchmark 10-year yield, that's called an inverted yield curve and has been a strong sign since 1950 that a recession is coming in the next 12 months.

The New York Fed tracks the relationship and establishes a probability based on the spread. As 2019 ended, the recession chance stood at 23.6%, still elevated but a far cry from the nearly 40% reading as the curve inverted. "While the Fed may want to portray its 2020 rate policy as stable, markets are signaling that their bias should be to further easing," Nicholas Colas, co-founder of DataTrek Research, said in his daily note Wednesday.
