Do interest rates go up or down during a recession?


Rate This Answer

Recession Interest rates are directly tied to the direction of the 10 yr treasury bond. When there is a recession the stock market will be very unreliable and investors will flee to the safety of bonds at which point supply and demand take over driving the price of bonds up and there interest yield down. End result...rates fall. ChaCha On!
