In reply to Brandon_Lang. Just checked the charts are you are correct, good sir! Since roughly the end of September, ZT is down 4% while ZB is down 13.5%. I was thinking with the short end of the curve so flat that the unwinding of the inversion would put convexity on that end.

In reply to Scott. All things equal, the long end will be more sensitive to rate moves given its higher duration.

In reply to TJS. They do not all move together equally, hence why the yield curve inverts (or steepens). On a percentage-basis, the short end of the curve would have higher percentage moves compared to the long end of the curve if/when the inversion begins to unwind.

Do the 30-yr, 10-yr and 5-yr all move together? Or is one of these supposed to outperform the other? Or best to just spread a bit into all three?
