On April 17, 2026, the 10-year Treasury yield closed at 4.26%, with the 2-year at 3.71% and the 30-year at 4.88%.

The average lead time from a negative spread to recession onset ranges from about 3 to 11 months. Meanwhile, mortgage rates have recently declined, following Federal Reserve rate cuts starting in September 2024, with the 30-year fixed mortgage rate at 6.30%. Investors should watch Treasury yields and yield curve spreads closely as signals for economic shifts ahead.
