The economic pattern is characterized by multiple warning signals. Key financial indicators indicate potential troubles, including a 10-year bond yield drop by 70 benchmarks and oil prices below $70 a barrel. These movements are growing with disappointing economic data and uncertainty surrounding current economic policies.
