As of 11\/18\/22.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s pretty clear the pace of rate hikes will slow down soon, although we believe we are far from returning to the easy money policy experienced the last 10+ years. Given the laundry list of unknowns, we thought it might help to take a step back and think about what we do know.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Inflation is still too high but it does appear to be receding. The question remains: HOW FAST DOES IT FALL BACK TO 2%? The Fed has acted aggressively since March with both rate hikes and QT; this action has tightened financial conditions. Monetary policy works with a lag so it\u2019s likely that the faster the Fed goes, the more plausible they will be late to realize the extent of damage the aggressive rate hikes will have on the labor market and the rest of the economy.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Again, this gets us back to, what is the terminal rate? The higher the terminal rate, the higher the likelihood of deteriorating financial conditions. On the other hand, going slower introduces the risk of needing to hike to a higher level if a slower pace proves unwarranted (i.e., persistent inflation).<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h5><b>So Where Does All This Lead Us?<\/b><\/h5>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We believe the terminal rate is likely higher today than it was previously thought to be back in September (the last published Dot Plot). Even after the latest data, inflation seems more persistent than what the FOMC thought back in September. We think this means the hurdle for cutting rates in 2023 will be very high.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Inflation has proven to be much more of a problem than it has been for the previous decades (we have to go back to the 70s to find real problematic inflation). We do believe the Fed is determined to avoid the mistake of the early 1980s, when it cut rates too soon, which allowed inflation to roar back. By not anchoring inflation, the result was a double dip recession \u2014 an outcome the Fed would very much like to avoid this time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h5><b>Time To Tell You How We Really Feel<\/b><\/h5>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Back in the 70s, Debt to GDP was much lower than it is today \u2026 this made the Volcker policy hikes more feasible.

That could potentially create a political nightmare: high unemployment and a stagnant economy. So the question remains, is it politically feasible to think the Fed can hike (and keep) policy at the levels needed to kill inflation (yes, Bullard threw out a 5-7% Terminal Rate) OR does the Fed declare victory at 3ish% inflation? I think it\u2019s more likely that the Fed lives with higher inflation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-232686 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/aptuscapitaladvisors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Restrictive-zone_ST-louis-fed_11.18.22.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"899\" height=\"517\" \/><i><\/i><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Source: St. Louis Fed.

The level of inversion has actually surpassed the levels seen going into the 2001 and 2008 recessions. The driver remains that expected Fed policy rates will remain elevated, or have even arguably moved higher since September.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While curve inversions have historically been a telltale sign of an impending recession, we could argue that it could also be the recipe for a \u201csoft landing\u201d. Slowing inflation mixed with resilent economic data is just what the Fed is looking for and over the past couple months, they\u2019ve seen a glimpse of it unfolding. Ultimately, both the recession crowd as well as the soft-landing crowd, agree that the yield curve is signaling that the Fed will cut interest rates in the future. The disagreement is about <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">why<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and that is what gives us a market!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">10s\/2s Inversion @ 73bps&#8230; Deepest Inversion since 1982.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-232687 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/aptuscapitaladvisors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Rates-and-curve_Bianco-11.22.22.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1032\" height=\"774\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aptuscapitaladvisors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Rates-and-curve_Bianco-11.22.22.png 1032w, https:\/\/aptuscapitaladvisors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Rates-and-curve_Bianco-11.22.22-980x735.png 980w, https:\/\/aptuscapitaladvisors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Rates-and-curve_Bianco-11.22.22-480x360.png 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1032px, 100vw\" \/><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Source: Bianco.

Even with all that hiking, the 10-year less 3-month yield curve (the Fed\u2019s preferred curve) is only now on the cusp of flashing yellow. While this indicator has successfully called recessions, historically it likely suggests we must still wait several months for a slowdown and subsequent pivot to materialize. In other words, given the inflation backdrop, this signal does not mean the Fed is about to change course.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">10Y\/3M @ -47bps.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-232688 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/aptuscapitaladvisors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Yield-curve-inversion_Bianco-11.21.22.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1019\" height=\"764\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aptuscapitaladvisors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Yield-curve-inversion_Bianco-11.21.22.png 1019w, https:\/\/aptuscapitaladvisors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Yield-curve-inversion_Bianco-11.21.22-980x735.png 980w, https:\/\/aptuscapitaladvisors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Yield-curve-inversion_Bianco-11.21.22-480x360.png 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1019px, 100vw\" \/><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Source: Bianco.

The terminal rate is still several months away, so the very short end of the curve will keep increasing (remember, we expect 2s &gt; Terminal Rate). The two-year rate should keep increasing as well when the market comes to the realization that rate cuts won\u2019t take place any time soon. The long end is much less dependent on nearer-term expectations for Fed policy and should remain rangebound. Our expectation? The recent inversion trend should continue until the spring, when there will be more visibility of how high the terminal rate needs to go.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h5><b>Disclosures<\/b><\/h5>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><i>Past performance is not indicative of future results.
