Wall Street still exudes widespread optimism that 2017 will provide another year of solid gains for stocks amid stable albeit unspectacular economic growth and only gentle interest rate rises.

Wall Street still exudes widespread optimism that 2017 will provide another year of solid gains for stocks amid stable albeit unspectacular economic growth and only gentle interest rate rises. However, as The FT details, all is not well in reality, and the following seven charts will hearten investors of a more bearish persuasion...  In fact this week saw the biggest drop in US Macro data in 6 years (after poor readings on job creation, inflation, housing starts and car sales)...  SEE chart above

US corporate lending has also been unexpectedly weak, raising eyebrows among economists. Here is a chart from Goldman Sachs showing the growth of commercial and industrial loans has fallen sharply recently, while corporate debt servicing costs have been climbing to more normal levels reflecting rising indebtedness and the Federal Reserve’s interest rate increases.


The consumer lending side is also looking less than ideal, with many households and individuals struggling with big student loans, credit card debt and car loans, after a period of anemic wage growth. Signs of some stresses can be seen in the uptick in S&P/Experian’s bank card default rate.


Even the default rate on high-quality “prime” loans edged up in the last quarter of 2016, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association.


Meanwhile, one of the most accurate measures of looming recession risk is the bond market “yield curve” shaped by bonds of various maturities flattening or even inverting. The US yield curve is far from inverting, but it has flattened sharply again this year, after steepening following the US election in November.

As is clear from the chart below, bonds are tracking 'real' economic data and stocks are tracking 'soft' survey hope...


And focusing on equities, fading analyst optimism over US “small-caps” - smaller listed companies beyond blue-chip gauges like the S&P 500 - is another warning sign.


Lastly, the rancorous US political climate shows no signs of abating. Here is a chart of the Philadelphia Fed’s “partisan conflict” index, which tracks the degree of political disagreement among federal-level politicians by measuring the frequency of newspaper articles that report disagreements in any given month.


With the market priced for Trump policy perfection, one might want to look away from this chart before faith is entirely erased.
Just some things to ignore before you BTFD after today's French Election.

With more numbers coming from the French Interior Ministry, as of 11:31 p.m. local time Macron's lead is growing to 23.61% as more city votes are counted, vs Le Pen 22.20%, with 41 Million votes counted, or 85.4% of the total. The gap is likely to expand as the final votes are tallied.

French Elections: American oligarchy n their Press is happy with Macron, n afraid of Le Pen. Why?
EURUSD is clinging to 1.09 as Treasury prices drop...



A Macron 'win' in the first round of the French elections, he has (judging by the initial reactions) allayed many fears of imminent doom. Dow futures are up around 200 points, Bond futures are down, gold is down (despite USD weakness)... However, as Bloomberg's Cameron Crise notes, "Enjoy the party, parkets; but beware of the bangover."

Despite a liquidity injection and the rest of the world in 'risk-on' mode over the French election results, Chinese markets are tumbling... It seems the catalyst is further crackdowns on shadow-banking.

LATEST SAUDI INSULT TO THE WORLD

“Saudi discrimination against women is gross and systematic in law and in practice. Every Saudi woman must have a male guardian who makes all critical decisions on her behalf, controlling a woman’s life from her birth until death. Saudi Arabia bans women from driving cars,” he continued. “Why did the UN choose the world’s leading promoter of gender inequality to sit on its gender equality commission?”
