The US Economic
situation today:
Gluskin Sheff's David Rosenberg summed it
all up nicely..."Hmmm. Let's see. Tariffs. Sharp bond selloff. Weak dollar policy.
Massive twin deficits. New Fed Chairman. Cyclical inflationary pressures.
Overvalued stock markets. Heightened volatility. Sounds eerily familiar (from
someone who started his career on October 19th, 1987!)."
A very chaotic day
across asset classes today amid headlines from Powell, Dudley, and Trump (note
the post-Trade-War move sent USD, Bond yields, and
stocks all lower together - a different regime from earlier in the day)...

higher interest rates cause higher VIX, stock prices should fall. As DB

"In
fact, that's one of the really major factors determining equity price ratios,
and therefore, as real long-term
interest rates rise, stock prices fall..."
Read this:
In response to a question from CNBC's
Morgan Brennan about his view on markets, Greenspan
said he believes we are in a bond-market bubble, and that rising long-term
rates will ultimately push the US economy into a state of stagflation.
Morgan
Brennan: Fed Chairman Greenspan, this is Morgan
Brennan. In Light of the comments you just made and sort of this talk about
budget deficits, I mean, we've heard a number of high-profile investors
recently, Paul Tudor Jones, Ray Dalio, Bill Gross all say they think the bond
market is a bear market. What is your take on the markets right now in light of
this fiscal situation?
Greenspan: Well, you mean what do I think of
markets generally?
Brennan: Yes.
Greenspan: Yeah, well I would say we are in a
bond market bubble. And a
bond market bubble really means that prices are too high and when they move
down, long-term interest rates move up. And if you take a look at the
structure of not price earnings ratios, but earnings price ratios in the stock
market, you find that the
critical issue of what engendered some of the strength in the recent period is
essentially the decline in real long-term interest rates, as is factored into
the market. That is in the process of changing. And I think that the bond market bubble is now
beginning to unwind, and that is going to bring
us ultimately into a state of stagflation. And beyond that it's very
difficult to tell. This is not an easy economic outlook because there are too
many variables, which we haven't seen in recent decades.
Of course, the fallout from
rising inflation and yields will have far-reaching reverberations across
markets, particularly the equity market, Greenspan said. That's because, as
real long-term interest rates rise, equity markets will inevitably decline.
Quintanilla: I guess, do we anticipate any
noticeable effects on ancillary markets, equities, for example?
Greenspan: Well, of course. If the real long-term interest rates
go up and you're in the process of having - it's inevitable that the effect on
stock prices is negative. In fact, that's one of the really major factors
determining equity price ratios, and therefore, as real long-term interest rates rise, stock prices fall. And
I'm not saying what we're looking at in the last few weeks is meaningless -
meaningful, but remember, the last few weeks I think are responding to the good
part of the tax cut. You know, before I got into government, I was on a lot of
corporate boards in which I had to sit through preparations of capital
investment expenditure processes. And what struck me all the time is when they
got down to the issue, the very end of it, you had what's the pretax rate of
return on this investment and what is the after-tax return. And the after-tax return is a clean cut. So
when you're going down from a 35% marginal rate to 21%, that's impact on
perspective investments, which is exceptionally high in a marginal sense.
So I, on the one hand, in the
short-term, think the capital goods markets will be okay, but longer term
productivity is in for serious diminution.
In
summary, investors who're trying to discern the beginning of the next
equity selloff should keep an
eye on break-events.
