The chart above shows the ten-year interest rate in each EU state as of July 2020, the change from the previous month, and the rate one year prior.  Twelve states have a negative interest rate (up from eight last month and up from nine last year).

All rates except for the one-month bill rose in August.  The yield curve widened from the previous month thus ending its narrowing streak of one month.  The one-month bill did not maintain the lowest rate throughout the month.  There were no drastic moves upwards on short-term rates thus decreasing the risk of an inversion brought upon by rising short-term rates.  Such an inversion, if it were to happen would be a strong indicator for an upcoming recession.

The chart above shows the per capita annualized nominal gross domestic product (GDP) in each EU and US region as of the first quarter of 2020 in US dollars, the change from five years ago, and the per capita GDP ten years prior.  US regions have had a very good past five years.
