Fed's latest Financial Stability Report is out. It's always worth a read.

Here are some things I found interesting.

federalreserve.gov/publications/f…
Report suggests that stocks aren't really 'overvalued' - they are around historical median from fundamental and relative valuations. ImageImage
But real estate - commercial and residential - remained very overvalued ImageImage
Yes interest rates have gone up, but the ability of corporations to service their debt is the highest in 20 years. This is because earnings went up with inflation, while debt locked in at historically low rates for a few years. Image
And next year Fed will begin to pilot some climate related bank supervison. The example given is to make sure 30y mortgages on beachside homes properly account for the risk of being swallowed by the sea. But I suspect its likely just a way to discourage banks from lending to O&G.

Let me explain why this is really bad for those with no public sector experience. The public sector is different from private sector because it can't fail. This fundamentally changes organization dynamics. 1/
I remember from my private sector experience - in biglaw, the partner will know smoke you in any aspect of law. In a credit analysis shop, the senior analyst will know the issuers and their structures inside and out.

That makes sense - biz would fail otherwise. 2/
At FRBNY, I recall the people who ran Treasury markets, money markets, etc. literally had no relevant experience or expertise. The job of staff was to make them appear competent, but it didn't really matter what they did because Fed can't fail and they can't get fired. 3/
