The yield curve is simply the spread between long-term and short-term interest rates. Short-term rates tend to be more influenced by central banks and monetary policy to stimulate the economy, support employment and maintain price stability. Long-term rates are typically impacted by underlying supply and demand forces. Yield Curve Explained: Under normal conditions, interest rates on longer-term debt are higher than rates on shorter-term debt. This phenomenon makes sense because there is an opportunity cost when investors tie up their money in bonds for 10 or 20 years instead of one or two years.
