🧵 Our Thoughts On $SPY :

1. Over May, the S&P 500 rose 0.87%, primarily driven by valuations. Earnings expectations & valuations contributed 0.13% & 0.74% to the 0.87% rise in markets. Below, we show the sequential evolution of market prices, along a decomposition: Image
2. Over the last year, the S&P 500 has been dominantly driven by valuations, with total returns rising by 1.03%. We show cumulative returns on the S&P 500 over the last year, decomposed into earnings expectations and valuations: Image
3. We further decompose these yearly returns into their sector contributions. We begin by showing the primary drivers of the S&P 500. We show the top three drivers in blue (Technology, Financials, Industrials) & the bottom three in red (Consumer Disc., Healthcare, Energy): Image

1. Our process tells us that we are likely headed towards a stagflationary environment, i.e., with growth contracting and inflation likely to be persistent. This regime tends to be one of the worst for passive investors, the reasoning for which is twofold. Image
2. Recessions are the primary risk to stocks as nominal spending collapses. At the same time, inflationary episodes are the primary risk to bonds as their fixed interest rate becomes less attractive relative to other nominal assets.
3. While we intend to provide a more in-depth commentary on both of these components separately in our upcoming Month in Macro report, we provide a sneak peek in what will be further elaborated on.

Self assessment 🧵
1/15

New Year’s is the perfect time for some self reflection and assessment of my performance relative to my investing goal #5Real

#5Real = earning +5% AFTER inflation

So, how did I do?

I-Bonds +8.2%
Cash Accounts +3.1%
IRA Trend (long only) -2.97%
All Weather -5.76%
Trading account -6.39%
Vol HF allocation -6.54
IRA Mean Reversion -8.91%
401K -12.29%
3/15

No matter how you slice it, I came up well short of my goals

I lost money

I take absolutely zero solace in having outperformed the $SPX or $TLT

Yeh, it was a hard year. But I can do better.
Much better.

So, what did I learn this year to make me better at this game?

Monthly market analysis Oct 31, 2022

#StockMarket #DowJones best month since 1976

Let's look at more closely 🧵👇
1. After technical oversold and very negative sentiment in Sep month, #StockMarket was finally able to reverse direction this month. $DJIA had the best month since 1976 (+14%). $NDX was underperformed (5%) compared to $SPX (8.8%), $RUT(11%).

2. Let's look at US 10Y #Bond Yield price action. It was very volatile and tested 4.3% Jun'08 high before reversing -9.8% to the end of the month. This month it finished up 5.7%. RSI did not make new high at Oct 21 when it reached peak 4.33% (bearish reversal)

#Sunak, Prime M0R0N is going to maintain size of public sector but cut their budget - some same useless resources for even less useless work.
CONT.
#Sunak, Prime M0R0N is going raise taxes, hindering growth, choking business, meaning less money in the economy & raising less revenue for government.
CONT.
#Sunak, Prime M0R0N has shortfall in taxation revenue to fill his black hole; so there will be further increases in taxation as the UK spirals into #recession, a vicious downward spiral heading ultimately to stagflation! CONT.

The perfect storm: Double-digit inflation, negative real rates, and an inverted yield curve.

Symptoms of what seems is the arrive of the #Stagflation.

2023 will be a difficult year.
Considering the signals of the World economy, oil prices are far from the reality.

It's time to coordinate fair and sincere expectancies between producers and consumers, regulators and investors, avoiding automatic platforms.

#OOTT #OilPrices

It's urgent and necessary, the dialogue between producers, consumers and the financial institutions.

Let's talk electricity.

Europe is in danger of rolling electricity shortages from what I call a crisis of confidence.

I will explain why, back it with data & kindly ask YOU to share it as the fix lies in voting for balanced policies. We must adapt, urgently!

For those of you short of time, attached a brief summary of the issue at hand.

I was asked to compare the 1970ies energy crisis with today's for a Turkish newspaper. My answer below.

The European electricity grid is a modern miracle. It is the largest synchronous electrical grid (by connected power) in the world. It interconnects 520 million end-customers in 32 countries, including non-European Union members such as Morocco or Turkey.

I'm reading everything that #ZoltanPozsar puts out for many years...His latest piece "War and Interest Rates" (August 1st) was a true masterpiece...Here are some highlights in a #thread🧵:
War is inflationary

....Wars come in many different shapes and forms. There are hot wars, cold wars, and what @DrPippaM calls hot wars in cold places – cyberspace, space, and deep underwater (see here). ...

Inflation did not start with the hot war in Ukraine…
the low inflation world stood on three pillars:
first, cheap immigrant labor keeping service sector wages stagnant in the U.S.; second, cheap goods from China raising living standards amid stagnant wages; third, cheap Russian gas powering German industry and the EU more broadly.

It could be slowflation not #stagflation – and it’s better for the equity markets

businessinsider.in/stock-market/n…

By @jainrounak
With the pandemic & the #RussiaUkraineConflict, global economies have been affected by too many factors that have made central banks alter the course too many times, resulting in confusion over which way the economy will go and the shape of recovery.

#stagflation #RBI
Experts around the world have been worried about #recession and #stagflation — a combination of slow growth, inflation and unemployment. But now, analysts at UBS suggest things are looking up, stating that the global economy could be staring at ‘slowflation’ and not stagflation.

#Stagflation

Definition of #stagflation

❎Stagflation is a period of rising inflation but falling output and rising unemployment.

❎Stagflation is often a period of falling real incomes as wages struggle to keep up with rising prices.

1
❎Stagflation is often caused by a rise in the price of commodities, such as oil. it occurred in the 1970s following the tripling in the price of oil.

❎A degree of stagflation occurred in 2008, following the rise in the price of oil and the start of the global recession.

2
❎Stagflation is difficult for policy makers. For example, the Central Bank can increase interest rates to reduce inflation or cut interest rates to reduce unemployment. But, they can’t tackle both inflation and unemployment at the same time.

1/ Préparez prochainement à une rotation de grande ampleur vers la #value. Car en effet elle est inévitable. La question n'est pas de savoir quand ça se produira mais quand. M. le Marché n'aime pas le changement. Les investisseurs #FOMO l'apprendront à leurs dépens. #inflation
2/ Ce que j'en suis sûr, c'est que cette rotation vers la #value se fera dans un contexte dévastateur pour les investisseurs qui bercent naïvement dans le #FED Put. Malheureusement, ce dernier laissera place à un FED Collar.
3/ $TSLA $AAPL $FB $AMZN $MSFT & Co ont tellement profité des politiques monétaires très accommodantes des banques centrales. Et peu importe si leurs fondamentaux intrinsèques sont bons ou pas. Je m'attends à des gros dégagements, et donc un transfert de richesse vers la #value.

Good morning Asia and the news is not good:

a) Pres Biden was in Poland and oil went to 121/barrel as fear of escalation higher
b) Shanghai Covid cases spiked & now locking down half of it
c) Markets pricing of hikes globally have gone up, even for the ECB.
😬
#stagflation
This week, PMIs for China and Asia are coming out (don't do prelims so we have to wait end of the month for data) & expect China data to be weaker on zero Covid & spiking Omicron and lockdowns/shutdowns.
Bank of Thailand this week. Don't expect any move even if CPI spikes to 5.3%
Yes, I am still bullish Southeast Asia & Australia, especially commodity exporters, in this environment of #stagflation & even if the Fed goes hawkish. And yes, India is considered a loser of higher oil prices but where it loses in the current account, it'll gain in the capital.

A thread on #Stagflation

Stagflation has been a buzzing word since Friday. Let's understand the concept and how it will impact our equity investment in the near future.

The below pic is very informative showing the implication of inflation on GDP growth.
Economists across the world are trying to interpret the present situation and making their consensus on the most likely upcoming stagflationary phase followed by the Global recession. Economists are cutting their GDP growth forecasts & raising inflation projections.
How is this buzzing suddenly? On Friday gap between yields on US02 year and US10-year notes stood at its narrowest since March 2020, a signal that investors may be anticipating that economic growth will slow down from its current robust pace.
