Fed Update<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Chairman Powell was before Congress this week and admitted several things: 1) rate hikes will not likely bring down cost of gas; 2) rate hikes will not likely bring down the cost of food (wheat, etc); and 3) a soft landing is unlikely, and growth is coming down.<\/p>\n

Treasuries immediately started pricing in lower growth\/recession with 10yr yields coming in significantly (down 12bps) and the S&P closed essentially flat. It\u2019s an interesting reaction for equities, since Powell basically said the Fed had to keep going despite rate hikes not really impacting a number of the key components of the inflation calculations, and odds were high that they would not be able to stick the soft landing. This can be seen in consumers take on inflation expectation survey.<\/p>\n

The Market is Pricing At Least a Risk of a Material Slowdown if Not An Outright Recession<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Market expectations for the federal funds rate have dropped significantly over the past several days. As the chart below illustrates, expectations were very high on Tuesday, June 14\u2014the day after the Fed telegraphed that it would hike by 75 bps at the June meeting instead of the anticipated 50 bps. Since then, expectations dropped a full quarter point or more at all horizons beyond year-end.<\/p>\n

Recency Bias is Huge in Markets<\/strong><\/h5>\n

We have at least 14 years since the GFC where good and bad economic news has been good for the traditional 60\/40 stock-bond portfolio. Good news meant that growth and earnings could re-rate higher and bad news meant that the Fed\u00a0would loosen financial conditions via ultra-low rates and QE. The negative correlation between stocks and bonds also helped lower total portfolio risk. However, the goldilocks regime ended this year as inflation and the Fed reaction function changed the game.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese results showing that factors other than demand account for about two-thirds of recent elevated inflation highlight some risks for the economy,\u201d Adam Hale Shapiro, an economist at the San Francisco Fed, wrote in a letter published Tuesday. \u201cBecause supply shocks raise prices and suppress economic activity, the prevalence of supply-related factors raises the risk of entering a period of low growth and elevated inflation levels.\u201d<\/p>\n
