📐Key Metrics
Key Findings
- 18% vs. 20% — Macroeconomic forecasting is inherently imprecise.

- Bond Market Signal — Treasury yields and swap rates provide a cross-reference for rate expectations with deep institutional liquidity.
- YES Position — Economic forecasting requires careful consideration of lag effects and data revisions.
