A week ago, after hearing #ChairPowell’s testimony before Congress, all eyes were set to be on today’s #inflation data, which presumably would help market participants better understand the #FOMC’s policy reaction at its March 22nd meeting.
What a difference a week makes these days! Of course, all eyes are still on today’s data, but now there are many other things we need to consider (such as #FinancialStability concerns), when judging the reaction function of the @federalreserve.
As we have long contended, #markets tend to be fairly myopic and lacking in patience, so having to focus on more than one news item at a time causes tremendous #uncertainty and thus greater market #volatility.
The new space is in co-creation.
Where employees and leaders meet is in a different place. Instead of having leaders hand down policies, or offer their solutions in a controlled, centralized way, more breakthroughs will happen if they open an in-meeting...

“Well, why don't we ask that?” Like, why don't we open up a mural board, a #crowdsourced whiteboard, and ask that question? And let's hear suggestions. Let's co-create how we're going to use physical space with this first meeting as the first pilot.

2/ There are two types of options: call options and put options. Call options give the holder the right to buy the underlying asset, while put options give the holder the right to sell the underlying asset. #calloptipns #putoptions
3/ The price of an option is determined by several factors, including the underlying asset's price, time until the option expires, and the option's strike price (the predetermined price at which the underlying asset can be bought or sold).

Financial sovereignty is a journey. One in which you become freer and more powerful over time, as your knowledge and toolset develops.
Bitcoin has opened the gates to a new age in which you can claim back control over your finances in a way that was previously impossible.

📢THE COLLAPSE OF THE WORLD ECONOMY AND THE SOLUTION IN THE FORM OF CRYPTO! 📢

So much is happening in the world. War, High #inflation, Covid, #recession, insolvancy, a debt bubble and Supply Chain problems.
All of these causes have a large impact on the world economy and therefore on your portfolio, which makes it important to understand what is going on.

The main consequence:
An nation on the verge of collapse and a debt bubble around the world.
As Ray Dalio said
'A nation in its last effort of strength is hugely in debt, there are internal wealth disparities and printing money seems to many to be the solution, but it is not'.

The @federalreserve’s Federal Open Market Committee raised the target range for the Federal Funds #policy rate by 0.75% yesterday, to between 1.50% and 1.75%, as was increasingly anticipated.
The move by the #Fed to progress faster to neutral will be applauded in the long run by the #economy, business decision-makers and ultimately by# markets.
Like putting your car’s transmission (automatic or manual) into #neutral, getting to that place allows for decision-making flexibility given changing road conditions, particularly when the road to the #destination has become increasingly #murky.
From Jan 2018 to peak of #EquityMarkets on 18th Oct 2021, #SmartInvesting of @IamMisterBond underperformed #BuyAndHold only against #NIFTY50 but beat NIFTY Mid and Small Cap 100 by a big margin.
Post that, markets have been #volatile with downward bias

Results of Smart Investing v/s Buy & Hold under all Market Caps is for all to see - with 1) lower volatility, 2) beating results of Buy & Hold by big margins
#SmartInvesting switched to Equity in Mar 20 after downside protection and switched back to DAAF by Jul 20

3) Values under Buy & Hold have gone down substantially from Oct 2021 to Feb 2022 v/s values going down marginally under Smart Investing due to being in #DAAF, 4) Smart Investing portfolios better placed at current juncture to take advantage of market #volatility v/s Buy & Hold

What are the implications of excess global financial market volatility on economic growth? Are there threshold effects in the relationship between growth & excess global volatility for individual countries? How should we model the nonlinear effects in a multi-country setting? 1/n

#Goal Based Investing vs #PortfolioProtection Debate: Sharing my response to that debate: 👇
I have a totally different take in this Goal based investing and communication with Investors.
I have a totally different take in this Goal based investing and communication with Investors.
My 35 years of experience is showing me totally diametrically opposite conclusion to this. Only my observations, please ignore if you do not agree:
My belief is that Goal based investing is only good on paper and may be to get some discipline in Investment habits.
My belief is that Goal based investing is only good on paper and may be to get some discipline in Investment habits.
But unfortunately most Investors do not follow it. For example at current juncture, when they have existential crisis, how many will continue on the path of goal based investing? Many have stopped SIPs, many have withdrawn and redeemed.

While the #JobsReport data during the #pandemic has shown itself to be highly unpredictable and #volatile, the remarkable gain of 4.8 million #jobs in June is a heartening development.
Today’s data suggested that the #labor #markets continue the process of carving out a bottom, as June’s #unemployment rate dropped to 11.1% from a peak of just less than 15% in April.
We’ve often suggested that #markets only focus on one thing at a time (perhaps two, if we include the political risk surrounding US elections), but the spread of #coronavirus is likely to re-rate the path of first half 2020 global #growth in a manner #investors should respect.
Yet, it’s critical to manage #portfolios through the short-term, with an eye always toward #investing for the medium-to-long-term: in other words, the recent extreme market #volatility is very unsettling, but at some point, it also delivers real opportunities.
And while the #Fed will do its part in maintaining #liquidity in the #financial system and in calming #volatile markets, for years we’ve counted on monetary policy to save the day. We think it’s time for a fiscal call to action, as #Fed influence on a health scare is limited.
Clearly, #markets are in the midst of a #volatility spike, and indeed economic data for a time will be more #volatile and less certain, but at times like this it’s particularly important for investors to think hard about those factors that matter most to markets.
As such, next of our 8 @blackrock blog themes are: 3) that “1.8%” can still be a guidepost for understanding the trajectory of #economy and #markets in 2020, assuming #coronavirus risk can be mitigated; and 4) #inflation may see its best post-crisis year, but not exceed 2%.
More specifically, we think U.S. real #GDP growth and core #inflation are likely poised to stabilize near longer-run averages of roughly 1.8% this year, but clearly significant left-tail risks to global growth have increased.

One of the things I manually track to see if things are heating/cooling is the percent of sales that sold for over asking (SOA). Here you can see that 416 Freeholds spent the last 9 months higher than they were last year. The 9% spread in December was the highest all year. /2
416 Condos spent the last 5 months hotter than 2018, and Dec was tied with Dec 2016 as highest ever for that month. Similarly, Dec gap of 10% higher than last year was largest gap of the year. /3
The high-frequency economic survey data look weak, and the outlook negative, but while the #economy is undeniably slowing, a solid consumer and #job market, a still steady services sector and low rate levels should bolster it over time and keep any potential #recession moderate.
Sentiment matters, and we’re concerned by this deterioration in the forward outlook, but we also need to keep in mind that the soft #data releases are often a great deal more #volatile than the ultimate changes witnessed in hard data.
Furthermore, it’s vital that #market observers look beyond “the economy” at its aggregate level, since while the #manufacturing sector certainly looks very weak, the question is whether the #services sector can hold up, as that’s a more critical component for growth.

Why? eg. if currently #Coupon rate on a bond is 6% & int rate is also 6% & face value of bond is rs. 100. Meaning buyer of bond is willing to pay more or less complete face value of rs. 100
