I’m pleased to see that the fed’s are asking Bombardier questions before cutting the inevitable cheque<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will have a hard time saying no to Bombardier Inc.\u2019s request for aid to complete the troubled C Series aircraft because of the company\u2019s deep political and economic roots in Canada.
…<\/b>
Here are six things former officials and analysts say Trudeau is looking at:1. Viability<\/b> Does the C Series have a bright future?
…<\/b>
2. Efficacy<\/b> Why hasn\u2019t past aid worked?
…<\/b>
3. Impact<\/b> Bombardier now has Canada\u2019s top corporate research budget at C$2 billion, more than double that of struggling smartphone-maker BlackBerry Ltd., according to Research Infosource Inc.
…<\/b>
4. Competition<\/b> Aerospace is supported by state funding elsewhere. Officials briefing Trudeau said it \u201cis often seen as a \u2018pay to play\u2019 industry,\u201d and the C Series will compete with aircraft made by Airbus Group SE, Boeing and Embraer SA. Sergio Marchi, a former Liberal trade minister and Canadian ambassador to the World Trade Organization, cited a past dispute with Brazil\u2019s support for Embraer as an example of the risks to Canada of not backing Bombardier. \u201cWe need to find creative ways to sustain our global players, because other governments did,\u201d he said in an interview last week.<\/p>\n

5. Governance<\/b> There are concerns with the way the company is run. Bombardier is controlled by its namesake family through shares with extra voting rights, and officials familiar with the government\u2019s plans have said the company\u2019s current governance structure is a barrier to federal aid.
…<\/b>
6. Politics<\/b><\/p>\n

Trudeau is from Bombardier\u2019s hometown and 40 of his 184 Liberal lawmakers are from Quebec, Canada\u2019s second-most populous province. Spurning Bombardier means the prime minister would have to explain why one of Quebec\u2019s biggest employers can\u2019t have a fraction of the C$9.15 billion bailout offered to Ontario\u2019s General Motors Co. and Chrysler factories in 2009.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The cheque will inevitably come. The last time a Canadian Prime Minister told the Gee-Whiz boys that the Federal Money Fountain was being turned off, the political liability lasted over fifty years<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Dudley was dovish on rates today and nonplussed at premature talk of negative US policy rates<\/a>:<\/p>\n

The U.S. economy has the momentum to help weather stormy global financial markets and policy makers have many other options before they would consider driving borrowing costs below zero if they need to protect growth, Federal Reserve Bank of New York President William Dudley said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI just find that an extraordinarily premature conversation to be having,\u201d Dudley said at a press briefing Friday in New York. \u201cThere are a lot of things that we would do long before we would really think about moving to negative interest rates.\u201d<\/p>\n

Financial markets have been routed in recent weeks by concerns over the global economic outlook. Dudley said the Fed was \u201cdefinitely aware of what\u2019s going on internationally\u201d and would take that into account when the policy-setting Federal Open Market Committee meets on March 15-16.<\/p>\n

In a remark that will probably reinforce views among investors that the Fed will not hike interest rates next month, Dudley said that the outlook for how quickly inflation would rise has been dimmed by recent financial-market developments.<\/p>\n

\u201cInflation is probably going to take a little bit longer to get back to our 2 percent objective, everything equal, than maybe what you thought a few months ago,\u201d he said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

But it’s not stopping the NYT from musing over possible consequences<\/a>:<\/p>\n

So what are some of the weird things that could happen in a world in which negative rates become routine?<\/p>\n

The policies in Europe and Japan are still relatively new and involve rates only slightly below zero. But if the policies become long-lasting, or negative rates go much lower, there are a lot of mind-bending ways it could affect routine transactions.<\/p>\n

For example, would people start prepaying years\u2019 worth of cable bills to avoid having money tied up in a money-losing bank account? How about property taxes? Would companies and governments put in place new policies prohibiting people from paying their bills too early?<\/p>\n

Or consider this: Many commercial transactions now take place with some short-term credit attached \u2014 for example, a company that gets a 60-day grace period to pay bills from its suppliers. Would that flip, and suddenly suppliers would prohibit upfront payment and insist that their customers wait 60 days to pay?<\/p>\n

Might new businesses sprout up that allow people to securely store thousands of dollars in bundles of $100 bills, or could people buy physical objects as stores of value that the banks can\u2019t charge a negative interest rate on?<\/p>\n

\u201cNegative interest rates in Japan is blowing my mind,\u201d said Jose Canseco, the provocative retired baseball player not normally known for his economic musings, on Twitter. And the truth is, he\u2019s not the only one.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

And it’s not stopping the bond market worrying<\/a>!<\/p>\n

As worries about European banks\u2019 credit pushed global stocks into a bear market, demand for U.S. debt heated up, driving benchmark 10-year yields toward record lows.<\/p>\n

During the Treasuries rally, investors discounted the risk of any surprise jump in interest rates or inflation by the most since January 2015, according to a gauge known as the term premium. The measure of how much extra return investors demand against unexpected developments over the life of the security approached the 45-year low set during last year\u2019s global deflation scare, going by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York\u2019s favored formula.
…<\/b>
By the close of trading Friday, the market-implied chances of a rate cut by the end of 2016 had fallen to about one percent. Traders assign a 30 percent chance of a quarter-point increase by the end of 2016, down from a 93 percent probability seen at the end of last year.<\/p>\n

Signs of distress were also evident in the Treasuries yield curve. It has yet to flash the traditional recession signal — short-term yields climbing above long-term yields. But that difference has shriveled. The gap between three-month and 10-year yields, which the Cleveland Fed uses as a growth indicator, narrowed to the smallest since 2012. The spread between two- and 10-year yields shrank to the slimmest since 2007.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It was a mixed day for the Canadian preferred share market, with PerpetualDiscounts gaining 15bp, FixedResets off 72bp and DeemedRetractibles up 36bp. The Performance Highlights table was produced on schedule. Volume was average.<\/p>\n

For as long as the FixedReset market is so violently unsettled, I\u2019ll keep publishing updates of the more interesting and meaningful series of FixedResets\u2019 Implied Volatilities. This doesn\u2019t include Enbridge because although Enbridge has a large number of issues outstanding, all of which are quite liquid, the range of Issue Reset Spreads is too small for decent conclusions. The low is 212bp (ENB.PR.H; second-lowest is ENB.PR.D at 237bp) and the high is a mere 268 for ENB.PF.G.<\/p>\n

Remember that all rich \/cheap assessments are:
\n\u00bb based on Implied Volatility Theory only
\n\u00bb are relative only to other FixedResets from the same issuer
\n\u00bb assume constant GOC-5 yield
\n\u00bb assume constant Implied Volatility
\n\u00bb assume constant spread<\/p>\n
