The good news 4Banks is that the #AltLeft BBB Green economic agenda puts a Nasty Secular overlay on Inflation, that’s like adding Kerosene on one of the biggest Cyclical Recoveries since WWII… So when Consumer Savings get drawn $XLF Cards will be ready to Finance Deficit = NII🚀
UK’s Bulb files for Chapter 11 (Insolvency)…at some point the bulb should switch on for the #AltLeft#GreatReset Stepping back a bit.. Wind & Solar likely never commercially viable.. adds to Public Debt & Subtracts from Consumer Savings.. As for Bulb, thx Germany! #EnergyCrisis
“We've been so proud to grow Bulb to 6% of the UK market. When we started Bulb just 1% of households were with renewable energy suppliers. Now that figure is over 30%. Green is going mainstream.” —> Chapter 11.
Nat Gas is already The Winner in the #EnergyCrisis.
$XOM 🚀
You could see this coming from tens of thousands of miles away….
Wait till Brainard gets a hold of US Banks… as Vice Chair of Supervision.
These Climate Fed CCAR Stress Tests are gonna put the #EnergyCrisis on Steroids. $XOM 🚀
“We source from Wind, Solar & Hydro.”
Imho… over time this Climate “Crisis” “Hype” is gonna end up in the toilet.. wait till Nov ‘22… Fossil Fuels (Cleaner versions) including Nat Gas leading the way are gonna attack the Twin Deficits.. the $DXY smelling out.

What do you make if right & IORB Hikes won’t blast the economy coz of Private Sector De-Leveraging.. & what’s your downside at ZIRP if wrong?
$XLF #Reflation
Let’s say PermaBears are right & we have ZIRP forever… Banks have the highest Capital levels in 30+ Years… & can easily payout 100% of earnings at 13% CET1…
Worse case ATM payout machines w 10% All In Yields… Sure beats buying a Massive 10 Year Govt Bubble at 70x P/E imho.
30% Divy… & 70% Buyback Ratios….in 5 Years…amount of Tangible Book Value Reduction… in a PermaBear ZIRP forever world…+ low credit costs…can easily get u to high Teen ROTCEs… & if we do get Inflation & Rate Hikes don’t Invert the Curve..ROTCEs are gonna Rip w TBVs👆 $XLF
Central Clearing helps not hurts Banks.
It’s gonna help get back > 20%
ROTCEs…blunting GSIB Score requirements, giving path to further Buybacks within context of getting off the ZIRP Floor (NII 👆) while Inflation Rises. $XLF #Reflation
It all starts w tons of XS Capital.
Banks love $TLT Central Clearing & moving Volume from Triparty to Sponsored FICC that Nets.
$XLF #Reflation
In simple DuPont terms:
ROTCE = Net Income/Revenues x Revenues/Tangible Assets x Tangible Assets/Tangible Equity
Net Margin x Asset Turnover x Financial Leverage Force Multiplier
Last turn is a Turbo Charger (Now think Central Clearing of $TLT )
It’s really 10Y3M… coz most funding at Front End of the Curve… as well as loans are mostly Front End as well … other 25% is long end mainly coz of XS Cash gets reinvested at the long end 10-30years. Rule of thumb is 75% of $XLF NII is front end.. rest back end.
Belly useless.
Front End… LIBOR/Prime etc the most important… that stuff is all going up.
So if the Short Thesis is built around a $DXY Wrecking Ball.. perhaps we might be forgetting the additional Credit Loss Absorption power on Sheet in an environment where there is SRF, Fed RRP (could go back to Zero) and $DXY Swap lines as ubiquitous as telephone poles nowadays.
“When interpreting data on Reserves, it’s important to keep in mind the quantity of reserves in Banking System is determined almost entirely by the Central Bank’s actions.
An individual Bank can Reduce their Reserves by “Lending Them Out or Using them 2 Purchase other Assets.”
“But these actions Do Not Change the Level of Reserves in the Banking System.”
“The general idea should be clear: while an Individual Bank can reduce its level of reserves by “lending to firms or households, the same is not true of the Banking System as a Whole.”
“No matter how many times the Funds are lent out by the Banks or used to make Purchases -Total Reserves in the Banking System do not change.”
“In particular, one can’t infer from the high level of aggregate reserves that banks are hoarding funds rather than lending them out.”
