Jobs, jobs, jobs!

Nonfarm payrolls rose by a seasonally adjusted 138,000 in May from the prior month, the Labor Department said Friday, and job gains in the prior two months were revised down. The unemployment rate fell to 4.3%, the lowest reading since May 2001. Economists surveyed by The Wall Street Journal had expected 184,000 new jobs to be added in May and a jobless rate of 4.4%.
…
The drop in unemployment suggests that the labor market is at or very near full employment, or the point when virtually all workers who are seeking a job have found one. Federal Reserve officials projected in March the jobless rate will average 4.7% to 5% over the long run.
…
Average hourly earnings for private-sector workers increased by 4 cents to $26.22 an hour in May. From a year earlier, wages rose 2.5%. Annual wage gains have stayed near the 2.5% pace since late 2015, despite a steady decrease in the unemployment rate.

Typically, economists would expect falling unemployment to coincide with better wage gains. When the unemployment rate was 4.4% in May 2007, wages for nonsupervisory workers were growing better than 4% annually. In May 2001, those wages were up 4% from a year earlier. Nonsupervisory wages rose 2.4% last month, from a year earlier.

Maybe people have lost the habit of paying more:

Robert Barbera, co-director for the Center for Financial Economics at Johns Hopkins University, suggests it is important to not just look at the unemployment rate’s level, but how long it took to get there

It took a long seven years for the unemployment rate to get to 4.3% from the peak of 10% in October 2009. Because of the sluggish growth, businesses never had to scramble, and pay more, to add workers. And at no point did workers feel they were awash in opportunity.

This slow growth doesn’t give people confidence to ask for higher wages. And plenty of workers have never experienced that kind of environment: The 2000s were a bit of a dud outside of housing. Only workers in their 40s and older remember the 1990s boom. Maybe the U.S. labor market is turning a bit like Japan’s, where the unemployment has fallen to its lowest level in nearly a quarter-century, but after so many years of disappointment, workers are hesitant to demand higher wages, and employers are hesitant to give them.

Meanwhile Illinois is in big trouble!

Illinois had its bond rating downgraded to one step above junk by Moody’s Investors Service and S&P Global Ratings, the lowest ranking on record for a U.S. state, as the long-running political stalemate over the budget shows no signs of ending.

S&P warned that Illinois will likely lose its investment-grade status, an unprecedented step for a state, around July 1 if leaders haven’t agreed on a budget that chips away at the government’s chronic deficits. Moody’s followed S&P’s downgrade Thursday, citing Illinois’s underfunded pensions and the record backlog of bills that are equivalent to about 40 percent of its operating budget.

“Legislative gridlock has sidetracked efforts not only to address pension needs but also to achieve fiscal balance,” Ted Hampton, Moody’s analyst, said in a statement. “During the past year of fruitless negotiations and partisan wrangling, fundamental credit challenges have intensified enough to warrant a downgrade, regardless of whether a fiscal compromise is reached.”
…
“The rating actions largely reflect the severe deterioration of Illinois’ fiscal condition, a byproduct of its stalemated budget negotiations,” S&P analyst Gabriel Petek said in a statement. “The unrelenting political brinkmanship now poses a threat to the timely payment of the state’s core priority payments.”

Meanwhile, Picton Mahoney has gotten some ink for investing in ‘Deemed Retractible bonds’

Phil Mesman and his colleagues at Picton Mahoney Asset Management have been scooping up subordinated debt issued by the likes of JPMorgan Chase & Co., Barclays Plc, and Credit Agricole SA in the 1980s and 1990s that is trading at a discount to face value. The goal is to get repaid early at a premium to the current price. This strategy, which began almost two years ago with a spreadsheet plotting the rather tiny universe of the asset class, has handed the firm’s funds returns of more than 20 percent, Mesman said.

These legacy hybrid capital notes were originally issued to convert to equity in the event of a bank failure. They trade at a discount primarily because of the low coupon, which is based on a spread over the London interbank offered rate, and uncertainty around whether or not they will be repaid early, Mesman said.

The bonds, which also have a liquidity discount, have a maturity of 25 years or longer in most cases, and some are perpetual bonds, he said. The bond covenants and structures are good for investors, because they make it difficult for a bank to convert the bonds to equity in the event it needs to shore up capital levels. Regulators have said that banks need to take out the bonds before Jan. 1, 2022, Mesman said, putting a deadline on opportunities in the trade.

Market Action

May 26, 2017

S&P has downgraded Alberta:

  • •Alberta’s projected deficits after capex over the next two years are among the highest of rated non-U.S. local and regional governments and, absent other measures, our expectation is that this will lead to further rapid growth in the province’s debt burden.
  • •As a result, we are lowering our long-term issuer credit and senior unsecured debt ratings on Alberta two notches to ‘A+’ from ‘AA’ and affirming our short-term rating at ‘A-1+’.
  • •We are also lowering our senior unsecured debt rating on Alberta’s Crown Corporation, Alberta Capital Finance Authority, to ‘A+’ from ‘AA’.
  • •The stable outlook reflects our expectations that Alberta will, on average, continue to post after-capital deficits of greater than 23% of total adjusted revenues in the next two years.

…
The downgrade reflects our assessment of the continued impact of depressed oil prices on Alberta’s important resource revenues and the province’s approach toward addressing its structural budget shortfall in a timeframe that is unlikely to prevent excessive growth in debt. To help stimulate the economy, the province has elevated its level of spending on infrastructure. As a result, in our fiscal 2016-2020 base-case forecast, our assessment of the province’s budgetary performance particularly on an after-capital basis has significantly deteriorated and is materially weaker compared with that of both domestic and international peers. In addition, we expect that for Alberta to fund its growing capital expenditure program, its debt burden will continue to
grow rapidly.
…
Nevertheless, we recognize that Alberta has good budgetary flexibility. Although it possesses strong tax advantages, compared with other Canadian provinces, that could be tapped, we believe it has yet to use these in a significant way to improve its fiscal position. We estimate that modifiable revenues and capital spending, on average, will represent about 84% of operating revenues and about 13% of total expenditures, respectively, for the fiscal 2016-2020 period.

Naturally, the pretend-conservatives are outraged:

Progressive Conservative caucus leader Ric McIver said Ceci and Premier Rachel Notley were oblivious to the fact they were turning Alberta’s finances into a “train wreck.”

“It’s going to be more expensive to provide services or there will be less of everything, including teachers, doctors, roads, schools, hospitals, all the things Albertans care about,” said McIver.

In news releases, Wildrose said the situation was due to the government’s “budget disaster,” while the Alberta Party chalked it up to “poor choices” by the NDP.

Hey! Pretend-conservatives! How much of the oil revenue from the past forty years is on deposit with the reserve fund?
