Investments that position a portfolio to capitalize on expected changes in the shape of the Treasury yield curve.

Yield Curve Strategy

Any investment strategy that seeks to profit from changes in the yield curve of U.S. Treasury securities. For example, one may buy a bond at a certain interest rate expecting prevailing interest rates to decline. If and when they do, the price of the bond one holds will increase, allowing one to sell the bond for a profit.
