Stock investors are getting crushed as the S&P 500 fell into a fresh bear market and the Federal Reserve debates its options.

The bond market saw its own volatility as the two-year and 10-year Treasury yield curve briefly inverted early Monday morning, a known predictor of a recession. Both yields are sitting at 52-week highs of 3.379% and 3.371%, respectively.

Falling stocks and rising yields come ahead of the Federal Reserve’s decision on interest rates due Wednesday. Investors also got word via areleased Monday afternoon that policymakers are reconsidering a 0.75% rate hike, in a possible surprise to the market. "To come back now, they’re sort of damned if they do, damned if they don’t," NatWest Markets head of US Michelle Girard told FOX Business. "It would look like they had to reverse course like they’re panicked. I just don’t know if the Fed just chooses to just signal that more rate hikes of 50 basis points or more are likely further into the fall than what they had initially expected.

Even before that new high, the University of Michigan’s preliminary sentiment index for June tumbled to a record low. "Consumers' assessments of their personal financial situation worsened about 20%.
