Market Action

August 27, 2020

Chair Jerome H. Powell of the Federal Reserve made an important speech today titled New Economic Challenges and the Fed’s Monetary Policy Review:

The persistent undershoot of inflation from our 2 percent longer-run objective is a cause for concern. Many find it counterintuitive that the Fed would want to push up inflation. After all, low and stable inflation is essential for a well-functioning economy. And we are certainly mindful that higher prices for essential items, such as food, gasoline, and shelter, add to the burdens faced by many families, especially those struggling with lost jobs and incomes. However, inflation that is persistently too low can pose serious risks to the economy. Inflation that runs below its desired level can lead to an unwelcome fall in longer-term inflation expectations, which, in turn, can pull actual inflation even lower, resulting in an adverse cycle of ever-lower inflation and inflation expectations.

This dynamic is a problem because expected inflation feeds directly into the general level of interest rates. Well-anchored inflation expectations are critical for giving the Fed the latitude to support employment when necessary without destabilizing inflation.18 But if inflation expectations fall below our 2 percent objective, interest rates would decline in tandem. In turn, we would have less scope to cut interest rates to boost employment during an economic downturn, further diminishing our capacity to stabilize the economy through cutting interest rates. We have seen this adverse dynamic play out in other major economies around the world and have learned that once it sets in, it can be very difficult to overcome. We want to do what we can to prevent such a dynamic from happening here.

We continue to believe that specifying a numerical goal for employment is unwise, because the maximum level of employment is not directly measurable and changes over time for reasons unrelated to monetary policy. The significant shifts in estimates of the natural rate of unemployment over the past decade reinforce this point. In addition, we have not changed our view that a longer-run inflation rate of 2 percent is most consistent with our mandate to promote both maximum employment and price stability.

Our longer-run goal continues to be an inflation rate of 2 percent. Our statement emphasizes that our actions to achieve both sides of our dual mandate will be most effective if longer-term inflation expectations remain well anchored at 2 percent. However, if inflation runs below 2 percent following economic downturns but never moves above 2 percent even when the economy is strong, then, over time, inflation will average less than 2 percent. Households and businesses will come to expect this result, meaning that inflation expectations would tend to move below our inflation goal and pull realized inflation down. To prevent this outcome and the adverse dynamics that could ensue, our new statement indicates that we will seek to achieve inflation that averages 2 percent over time. Therefore, following periods when inflation has been running below 2 percent, appropriate monetary policy will likely aim to achieve inflation moderately above 2 percent for some time.

Update, 2020-8-28: I should have noted that seeking to “achieve inflation moderately above 2 percent for some time” “inflation that averages 2 percent over time” is known as Price-Level Targetting

This had a moderate effect on the market:

The Fed’s new strategy sent Treasury yields higher, which gave a lift to interest rate-sensitive financials in the U.S.

The financial sector provided the biggest boost to the S&P 500 and the Dow, pushing the former to its fifth straight record closing high and the latter within a hair’s breadth of reclaiming positive territory for the year so far.

The Dow remains more than 3.6% below its record high reached in February.

Stocks lost steam late in the session following House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi issued a statement saying Democrats and Republicans remain far apart over the next stimulus bill.

Market Action

Click for Big

TXPR closed at 583.50, up 1.62% on the day. Volume today was 3.87-million, by far the highest of the past thirty days, well ahead of second-place July 29.

CPD closed at 11.63, up 1.22% on the day. Volume was 111,115, highest of the past 30 trading days, ahead of second-place August 12.

ZPR closed at 9.35, up 2.13% on the day. Volume of 894,959 was the highest of the past 30 trading days, more than double that of second-place August 4.

Five-year Canada yields were up 1bp to 0.42% today.

Today’s market pop is probably related to the announcement of a mass redemption of RY DeemedRetractibles.

PerpetualDiscounts now yield 5.46%, equivalent to 7.10% interest at the standard equivalency factor of 1.3x. Long corporates now yield 2.89%, so the pre-tax interest-equivalent spread (in this context, the “Seniority Spread”) has narrowed dramatically to 420bp from the 455bp reported August 12. We are now well below the pre-2020 record of 445bp briefly touched in 2008.

Market Action

August 17, 2020

I’m pleased to see that – after a long, long time – the G-20 protesters have been vindicated:

Roughly 1,100 protesters caught up in the largest mass arrests in Canadian history a decade ago are eligible to receive between $5,000 and $24,700 each in the proposed settlement of a class-action lawsuit against the Toronto Police Service.

They’ve come a long way and suffered serious indignities, as I mentioned on August 23, 2010:

The (alleged) G-20 protesters had their day in court today:

Over 300 people facing G20-related charges appeared at a Toronto courthouse Monday, a legal tidal wave resulting from the largest mass arrests in Canadian history.

The court’s hallways are only designed to hold 176 people. Officers have been tasked with regulating the intake of defendants to ensure the building doesn’t break fire code. The court’s legal aid office brought in extra staff, including French-speakers.

I don’t know the name of the petty, vindictive ratshit who decided to make the scheduling an extra-judicial punishment … but I have a message for him: You have held the courts in contempt, and you have done more damage to the rule of law than any of those charged. Asshole.

And the protesters were also poorly served by the politicians, as mentioned on August 31, 2010:

I’m still upset about police actions during the G-20 meeting. So are some others, but there are few who really couldn’t care less, one way or another:

The largest mass arrest of Canadians in history and the Grits primary concern is that the cops were overwhelmed.

At a wintry moment in the history of Canadian civil rights, the Liberal Party is AWOL.

We are poorly served by our politicians of all stripes. Still, with the pseudo-opposition being led by Torture Boy, I suppose we should be grateful nothing worse than vindictive time-wasting seems to have occurred. This time.

I still haven’t regained any of the respect for the police I lost during the G-20 police riot. There are too many clowns in the ranks, too hopped up on steroids to know or care what they’re doing. Management is extraordinarily weak … I’m sure everybody remembers that the police removed the identification from their uniforms prior to their G-20 frenzy and not a single sergeant and not a single higher-ranking officer either noticed or cared.

The first step is to set up a new organization to respond to mental health calls and welfare checks. Sure, have regular cops with their steroids and guns available to be called on short notice; but they don’t need to be there first, if at all.

Market Action

August 14, 2020

Inflation expectations are normalizing:

The U.S. bond market’s gauge of investor inflation expectations this week rose to six-month highs, bolstered in part by data showing higher producer and consumer prices in July.

The yield spread, or inflation breakeven rate, between five-year Treasury Inflation Protected Securities (TIPS) and regular five-year Treasuries hit 1.565% on Thursday, the highest since February.

U.S. 10-year and 30-year breakevens touched 1.6618% and 1.7105% on Wednesday and Thursday, respectively. Both levels were six-month peaks.

Breakeven rates pared some of that move Friday as they came off their highs.
