“What
does the Fed know?”
The Fed Should Be Hiking Rates
As we
noted in our RIA Pro article:
“During
the press conference, the Chairman was asked what has transpired since the last
meeting on December 19, 2019, to warrant such an abrupt change in policy given that he recently stated
that policy was accommodative, and the economy did not require such policy
anymore.
In response, Powell stated:
‘We think our policy stance is
appropriate right now. We do. We
also know that our policy rate is now in the range of the committee’s estimates
of neutral.'”
The Trap
So,
therein lies the trap. Do
you hike rates and reduce the balance sheet anyway to be better prepared for
the onset of the next recession, OR reverse policy to try to “kick the
recession can” down the road a bit which leaves you under-prepared for
the next crisis?
For the
Fed, it is a choice between the lesser of two evils. The only question is did
they make the right one?
While
the Fed has a long history of using economic jargon and, quite frankly,
non-truths to help promote their agenda, they also have
a long history of making the wrong policy moves which spark either some sort of
crisis, recession or both.

"...the
similarities between the current economic situation and that of 1929, and the
threat to today’s unbacked currencies, are ominous... economic salvation can
only come from ditching today’s macroeconomic theories and by returning to
monetary stability through credible gold exchange standards."

The likely progression of a new credit crisis
It appears that the psychology underlying
productive activity has changed. Every time a central banker makes a reassuring
statement, instead of applauding it, commercial bankers question the motive,
saying there’s no smoke without fire. It’s the same for investors. Next time
the stockmarket slides, look out for senior government figures attempting to
reassure investors, and investors taking the hint that things must be worse
than they appear if they need reassuring.
There is a way to stabilise interest rates, which
government economists won’t like: return to a credible
gold exchange standard, then interest on long-term government borrowing will be
capped at under 5% and falling, assuming credibility in government finances is
restored.

According to Nomura's quant team, based on past behavior of
systematic trend following algos, the Japanese bank expects CTAs to preventatively take profits on long
positions sporadically starting around 26 February.
Following
the December plunge, the S&P has staged one of the most vicious snapback
rallies in history, rising for 8 consecutive weeks, most bizarrely without either
institutional or retail investors actually buying this unprecedented short
squeeze/buyback-driven rally which has seen near constant ETF selling even as
the S&P has soared...

Yet even
though the US equity market is expected to edge higher in the short-run with
the help of some buying inertia - which is basically Marko
Kolanovic's entire (latest) bullish thesis, Nomura warns that "a sense
of overheating in the markets’ upward momentum is rising at the same time and
thus a cooling-off phase is likely forthcoming."

As I've
noted before, roughly 3/4 of all household wealth in China is tied up in real
estate, where it is effectively dead-money, earning no
yield and completely illiquid.
