Crowding Out Watch, Again

I thought my March post on crowding out would be my last for a while, but the latest data are startling enough so that I wanted to post this graph of ten year real interest rates. Just for all those people who were worrying about big jumps in rates with government borrowing.

Figure 1: Ten year constant maturity TIPS yields (blue), and ten year constant maturity yield adjusted by ten year mean expected CPI inflation rate (red squares). NBER defined recession date shaded gray. Source: FREDII, Philadelphia Fed Survey of Professional Forecasters, NBER and author’s calculations.
Just in case one wanted to know the exact figures, the TIPS ten year yield in September averaged 0.08% (nominal constant maturity yield at 1.98%). The TIPS ten year constant maturity on 10/6 was 0.18%, the TIPS five year was ….negative 0.57%.

Howdy just wanted to give you a quick heads up and let you know a few of the pictures aren’t loading correctly. I’m not sure why but I think its a linking issue. I’ve tried it in two different internet browsers and both show the same results.

The very core of your writing whilst sounding agreeable initially, did not settle perfectly with me after some time. Someplace throughout the sentences you actually were able to make me a believer but just for a while. I still have a problem with your leaps in assumptions and you would do well to fill in those breaks. In the event you actually can accomplish that, I could undoubtedly be impressed.

It is now and again perplexing just to happen to be giving away things which usually people today might have been selling. And we discover we have the blog owner to appreciate because of that. The entire explanations you’ve made, the straightforward site navigation, the friendships you can give support to engender – it’s got all exceptional, and it’s really making our son and our family feel that that concept is cool, and that’s highly essential. Thanks for everything!
