NIHILISM EMBODIED: OUR LAWLESS FINANCIAL SYSTEM
Not only have the billionaire class made money, they have tightened their monopolistic grip on the levers of money supply and distribution, turning a global rigged casino into a global company town...
Authored by Charles Hugh Smith via OfTwoMinds blog,
What basic precursors do you need to stampede wealth toward the few?
First, you need unlimited cost-free money, preferably the U.S. dollar as the world's reserve currency.
Combine this zero-interest, unlimited, frictionless money with allowing unlimited stock buybacks, and the value of stocks no longer has to even be connected with earnings!

According to BofA's Jared Woodard, the crowded trades – growth vs. value, large vs. small, US vs. EAFE, market cap vs. equal-weight, USD vs. EM FX, Treasury bonds – stay crowded because there is no alternative in a world of shrinking returns on capital.
SEE CHART

Despite the asset bubbles observed virtually everywhere, BofA says that economic stagnation remains its base case: "more stimulus and early vaccines at best get us to the 2019 ante of low growth and precarious wages/EPS." A stagnant world also makes yields more valuable as interest rates everywhere trend toward zero. As such, today a record 79% of the S&P 500 offers dividends greater than the 10-year Treasury yield.

In summary, "stagnant GDP, deepening inequality, and the threat of policy failure make us bullish on the things we don’t want to buy because, without an economic transformation, any reversal in the ranks of market winners & losers can only last a season."

FUTURES HIT NEW RECORD HIGH AFTER BUFFETT REVEALS 5% STAKES IN FIVE MAJOR JAPANESE TRADING COMPANIES
Buffett is transitioning out of US money-center banks and into Japanese traders at a time when the BOJ dominates most capital markets and just as Abe announced his resignation, putting the future of the entire Abenomics platform in question.
With S&P futures seen at a new all time high of 3,122.

https://www.zerohedge.com/s3/files/inline-images/ES%202020-08-30_20-20-52.jpg?itok=MXt_vocI
That prompted Buffett to transition out of US money-center banks whose performance has been dismal in 2020 compared to the surge in tech, and into Japanese traders at a time when the BOJ dominates most capital markets (and was last seen in possession of 80% of all local ETFs), and just as Abe announced his resignation, putting the future of the entire Abenomics platform in question, but we are confident that some bullish spin will be forthcoming.

Deceptive title (PRAYING for PAYING )but nice data on unemployment & spending
WHY AMERICA'S POOR ARE PAYING FOR A MARKET CRASH
"Perversely, a shock looks increasingly necessary to force policy measures allowing the market to sustain these levels to begin with."
Last week we showed that following the July 31 "fiscal cliff", which saw the end of the $600 weekly emergency unemployment benefit and as a result, weekly unemployment insurance benefit payments were cut in half, from $25BN pre-July 31 to just over $10 BN after...
See Chart:
Spending was also observed by income bucket: over the first two weeks since July 31, the YOY spending growth rate slowed by 12% for the unemployed cohort (formerly) earning under $50K vs. a roughly 5% drop for the middle and upper income cohorts.

WHAT'S BEHIND LAST WEEK'S UNPRECEDENTED MELTUP IN THE VIX? CITADEL EXPLAINS
"The street got trapped being short vol."
Perhaps of all the charts, one of the most curious observations was the recent meltup in the VIX, and especially the Nasdaq Vol index, which last week was tracking the Nasdaq almost tick for tick, a paradox when considering that the Nasdaq just hit all time highs virtually every day which should depress vol. What was behind this unprecedented inversion of one of the market's most fundamental correlations?
SEE CHART:
Nasdaq 100 vs Nasdaq 100 VIX
https://www.zerohedge.com/s3/files/inline-images/nasdaq%20100%20vs%20vix.jpg?itok=epHjVNO1
It wasn't just the Nasdaq of course. On Wednesday and Thursday, the VIX was more than 5% higher each day, with the S&P 500 up both of those days. How rare is this? Very. According to Larry MacDonald, there were just ten days in the last decade with the S&P up 1% with the VIX closing higher. Furthermore, this is especially rare with the market at all-time highs, and as Goldman showed, the last time the VIX was this high at an all time market high was in March 2000, just before the dot com crash
SEE CHART:
3Y trend of higher VIX levels at SPX has resumed
Needless to say, in a healthy bull market at its best levels, the VIX should be in the low teens, not the lows 20s as shown in the chart above. In fact, as we showed previously, the correlation between volatility and equities was at the highest since January 2018, just days before the Volmageddon event of Feb 2018.
