As the calendar turned to September, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) issued new guidelines expanding and extending existing moratoriums previously put in place to stop evictions during the pandemic. Families affected by COVID either through the disease or as a result of job loss due to the coronavirus have been protected from landowner actions including eviction [...]

ISM At A Job Cutting 56.0

By |2020-09-01T18:58:12-04:00September 1st, 2020|Currencies, Economy, Federal Reserve/Monetary Policy, Markets|

Though there’s not much to add, it’s worth bringing this up again. In the era of gigantic positives, why aren't sentiment surveys so much more positive than they are? It's because these PMI numbers aren’t what you’re being told they are. After such a huge contraction, mid-50’s is a bomb; mid-50’s (the best ones) in August 2020 is a real [...]

Fat Chance, Flat Phillips

This one will also be simple but doesn't need to be lengthy. What is a flat Phillips Curve? It’s not just something Richard Clarida dreamed up recently. The idea has been talked about more and more as the inflation “puzzle” showed up disproving the LABOR SHORTAGE!!!! - meaning full employment and recovery narrative – over the past few years. Here’s [...]

Peak Inflation? No, Peak Stupidity

By |2020-08-31T18:12:19-04:00August 31st, 2020|Bonds, Currencies, Economy, Federal Reserve/Monetary Policy, Markets|

You can (and should) read the entire text of Richard Clarida’s speech delivered today (via webcast) for the Peterson Institute for International Economics. The Federal Reserve Vice Chairman’s remarks are a perfect example of the unnecessary gobbledygook that Economists like him reach for when clarity is warranted. You’d think after being unable to meet their definitions for their statutory mandate on [...]

Seriously, This Isn’t Difficult

By |2020-08-28T19:25:01-04:00August 28th, 2020|Bonds, Currencies, Economy, Federal Reserve/Monetary Policy, Markets|

If you have to work overtime just to catch up to where you were supposed to be, you haven’t done a good job. It’s really that simple. And in the context of inflation, therefore legitimate economic growth as distinguished from fake booms, that’s really all bond yields are.The lower rates go, and the longer they stay lower, the more they [...]

Vague Inflation Promises Vs. Ongoing Labor Market Destruction

By |2020-08-28T17:49:46-04:00August 28th, 2020|Currencies, Economy, Federal Reserve/Monetary Policy, Markets|

Why the big deal about the Fed’s new grand strategy? For one thing, as noted yesterday, there’s that whole lost decade which policymakers finally have acknowledged. They’ve quite a lot of catching up to do, but have waited for the most inopportune moment to…basically do more of the same things that hadn’t accomplished anything other than lose an entire decade.Already [...]
