Why would the two year rate be greater than the one year rate? There are two basic reasons: 1. If inflation is expected to be higher-the expectations hypothesis 2. If investors prefer short-run investment horizons and need to be enticed (with higher rates) to buy longer maturities-the maturity preference hypothesis.

hey Khan you should make videos for the CFA JUST FOR ME :) I literally am banging my head on my keyboard to try and get the information in. The books are BORING. I am rereading each paragraph like 5 times. It just is not sinking in.
Crazy how this video was shot in March 2008 and a recession hit in the coming few months. I’m watching this in Jan 2023 and people are talking about an incoming recession this year. Only time will tell! Take care folks!
Watching this for a quick overview on this for my MBA finance class. Then I notice this is from 2008. I'm like whoa. In the MBA classes, we always talk about 2008 like it's WW2 lol
I came across your channel through this video-case studies are incredibly valuable, and I'm eager to see more in the future! Building wealth involves establishing routines, like consistently setting aside funds at regular intervals for smart investments.
when you explained why a treasury bond is risk free, I thought you were going to say that when the government has run out of money, all it needs to do is print more.
Printing more money is ofcourse an option but kind of a "last resort". You wouldn't want your govt to print more money and bring down the value of the currency (Zimbabwe's Crisis). Increasing Tax Rate on the other hand keeps the supply of currency constant in the country, it just shifts it from one side (citizens) to the other (government)
so in theory is yield and yield curve different? is yield and current yield same? is yield and interest rate same? is the yield curve and interest rate the same?
Where do you teach? Wow! I have been in my text for hours trying to make sense of this (currently taking Financial Inst and Society), and it's been difficult to understand in simple terms. Thank you, you have great communication skills an absoultely marvelous voice! Thank you so much!
Hey I know it's been years (and actually a decade), but I just came across your comment and I was curious. How did the rest of your education go, and how have things been going since then?
@@PunmasterSTP Hi Samter, wow yes a decade. Well I went on to complete a masters in clinical mental health in 2019. I still need to study for the NCE to become licensed, but having a very hard time focusing so it's been really slow for me.
The only worrying thing is that previous bonds paid off are being financed with new bonds issued . Not good for treasury's credit rating, and it won't be too long before foreign buyers of govenment bonds wise up.
at 8:20, shouldn't it be depending on the supply rather than demand, as the investors are suppliers? And that also stands with the economic perspective, higher the supply, lower the rate and vice versa
Small nit pick, but I think Sal mixed up the terminology at 8:30. The market/product is essentially money/loans (to be used for government spending), and the currency are the treasuries. So the supply is the investors willing to loan their money, and the demand is the government who needs money to pay for things. It would be that a higher supply of investors lowers the yield of the treasury, not the demand.
You overthought this, and as a result initially disagreed with him just to end by repeating what he said. Supply are the issued bonds. Demand are the investors who want to "purchase" those bonds. The reason the government CAN pay a lower rate when there are a lot of buyers (aka investors) is because there are a lot of buyers. The government isn't in a desperate position in that case. If there were less buyers, the government would have to raise rates to attract investors.
Thanks for the forecast! I need some advice: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (air carpet target dish off jeans toilet sweet piano spoil fruit essay). What's the best way to send them to Binance?
I would like to address a question regarding the relation between the demand on bonds and the interest rates. Why does the interest rates go lower when you have more demand? Does it have something to do with the fact that if more people have the T-bill/note/bond the government will have more expenses with the higher interest rate?
Awesome! Thanks for teaching me what the yield curve is. But are the loans to the government really a safe investment as government debt is exponentially increasing?
Short-term rates are rising to the point that they are nearing the yield of long-term rates. This is a bad sign because banks are gaining less interest (banks receive interest on long-term loans and pay interest on short-term loans), AKA their net interest margin. A flattening, and eventually, inverted yield curve has predicted the last 7 recessions.
The reason why short term yields rise above long term yields (which logically shouldnt happen in a good economy) is because bond investors bid up long term T-notes and bonds (10-30 years) in anticipation of the Fed (central banks) lowering interest rates and thereby raising prices, which current bond holders gain on. So it is anticipation of Fed action in response to a bad economy that the yield curve inverts.
What happens if U took out a 20 year Federal Note ($1000) at say 10% and U decide U need Ur money back after 10 years. How much do U get back? Does the interest U get back change to a lower amount?
Thanks for the forecast! 📊 I have a quick question: 🤷♂️ I have a set of words 🤷♂️. (behave today finger ski upon boy assault summer exhaust beauty stereo over). What is this? 🤔
Good job. If you ever rerecord this though, use the word "maturity" instead of "duration". Duration has a special meaning in the world of bonds (it's a measure of how much the price of the bond changes when interest rates change).
One very slight faux pas. Khan said, "The government can raise taxes if it runs out of money." Raising taxes must be passed by both Houses of Congress and signed into law by the President. Not an easy task. The fed simply prints more money. That's an easy task for them.
This is wrong. Govt sells at certain fixed coupon or interest rate. The change in price of bonds, bills- demand and supply- determine the yield of that instrument.
Josef , I understand how hyperinflation works. printing may be the only option the fed has, especially at the end of our massive debt cycle. thus there bond is guaranteed but the value of the dollar might be less by the time your loan is paid. so raising taxes is not the only way to pay back a loan. a bond is only secure if the dollar is on the gold standard.
You keep saying "risk-free" but I don't believe anything is risk-free. What if the USD tanks? Doesn't that mean those bonds are worth significantly less or am I misunderstanding something?
One mistake in the video. T-bills are for maturities up to and including 1 year. T-notes are for 2-10 years (I mistakenly said that the 1-year maturity would be a t-note)

Khan, are you going to make an updated video on the yield curve since it's now inverted here in the US?
Yield curve? More like "Yes, I'm glad I heard!" Thanks for sharing so much wonderful information on *so* many topics!
8:08 to 9:27 (very useful for rate determination/pricing)
Cleared the topic in just 15 min...thanks
Excellent demonstration of the yield curve.

The government won't print money especially if they want inflation to keep down.
Very well spoken and explained
Thanks
This is just before the recession(march 2008) and the 1-month, 3-month yield curve is starting to getting inverted!
This was a really good intro, thank you!
so in theory is yield and yield curve different? is yield and current yield same? is yield and interest rate same? is the yield curve and interest rate the same?
Good teaching, good learning.

The only worrying thing is that previous bonds paid off are being financed with new bonds issued . Not good for treasury's credit rating, and it won't be too long before foreign buyers of govenment bonds wise up.
Could be a good opportunity to discuss points of inflection.
Does the Yield Rate reveals the risk perception of the Bond Buyers ?
at 8:20, shouldn't it be depending on the supply rather than demand, as the investors are suppliers? And that also stands with the economic perspective, higher the supply, lower the rate and vice versa

You have it always so clear
It’s a published post sell transaction metric. Buy back has related implications?
thank you they are helpful to me as a trader
"dollar might collapse.." says it so casually
8:00 nice underhanded jab 😏
Does the government/ fed calculate or take into consideration the time value of money while determining the yield?
Government doesn't determine the yield, the market does.
Are the points on the yield curve referring to the yield to maturity?
The vertical line Coupon payment or Yield to Maturity?
Great video.At least gained something.Thanks

Due to inverse relationship between Yield and Price of Bonds, I think
I love you voice :-) communication is very clear :-)
thank you for all your videos,
great stuff
thank you for the quick break down sir!
Yes we're screwed!!!
So if demand leads to spike in price, yield drop as coupon rate is fixed. That's why inverse relationship between price and yield.
What's good to invest for gold is gold or gdx ok

can yuo explain the iverted yield curve?

Hi I'm from the future, 2021. Preparing for the next market crash.
Awesome! Thanks for teaching me what the yield curve is. But are the loans to the government really a safe investment as government debt is exponentially increasing?
Ben Zemła no
What does it mean when the yield curve is flattening?
Short-term rates are rising to the point that they are nearing the yield of long-term rates. This is a bad sign because banks are gaining less interest (banks receive interest on long-term loans and pay interest on short-term loans), AKA their net interest margin. A flattening, and eventually, inverted yield curve has predicted the last 7 recessions.

what is bootstrapping sir ?
Guess this is relevant yet again.
A positive slope is bullish and negative slope is bearish right?

are they really still risk free when the govt is so far in debt and manages to run out of funding money all the time?
One very slight faux pas. Khan said, "The government can raise taxes if it runs out of money." Raising taxes must be passed by both Houses of Congress and signed into law by the President. Not an easy task. The fed simply prints more money. That's an easy task for them.
Both processes involve multiple individuals reaching an agreement...
Or they could print and inflate the money supply.

This is wrong. Govt sells at certain fixed coupon or interest rate. The change in price of bonds, bills- demand and supply- determine the yield of that instrument.
Couldn't the fed pay back the bonds by printing money instead of raising taxes depending on the climate of the economy.
james panos That causes Hyperinflation which ruins economies. Suggest you look up hyperinflation
Josef , I understand how hyperinflation works. printing may be the only option the fed has, especially at the end of our massive debt cycle. thus there bond is guaranteed but the value of the dollar might be less by the time your loan is paid. so raising taxes is not the only way to pay back a loan. a bond is only secure if the dollar is on the gold standard.

They do! Look up Modern Monetary Theory.
