WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The inversion of the U.S. Treasury yield curve is yet another signal that the Federal Reserve needs to cut interest rates, White House trade adviser Peter Navarro said on Wednesday.
"The kind of volatility you see today in the inversion of the yield curve is sending yet another signal that the Fed needs to lower ... interest rates by 50 basis points as quickly as possible," Navarro told Fox Business Network.
