1). No, he doesn't.

2). One of his staff explained it to him. He nodded in agreement until he got impatient, then tuned them out, but they wrote "inverted yield curve" down for him and said "When in doubt, just say "inverted yield curve" and you'll be OK.

3). He did.



Sort of like George W Bush saying a sovereign nation is a nation that has sovereignty. An inverted yield curve is like a yield curve, except it's inverted. MAGA!
