The day has come that you’ve been waiting all week, even longer.
The day of the Republican National Convention?
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no In fact, in the last two weeks, I’ve spent 0 minutes and 0 seconds in total, whether it’s in Democratic or Republican conventions. Just not my cup of tea. These are mood reunions. Even when done virtually. They don’t convince in the other aspect of anything and in fact they don’t affect, at least on the fast front, my ability to make money. If I watch TV for fun, they are lectures through history teachers about C-Span3 or live baseball.
If economic markets are going to be an indication, we can be expecting a lot from Fed President Jay Powell on Thursday morning, just after nine a.m. ET, when he presents his face, also near the annual Kansas City Fed economic symposium. . held in Jackson Hole. Almost all Fed observers expect the presidency to face labor markets and for inflation to be expected in the medium and long term. Powell is also more than likely to talk about the long-awaited revision of the central bank’s economic policy. This route will be academic, searching labor markets from the attitude of an economy much closer to full employment than we are now, and how to deal with the unrest that arose under the Fed’s previous leadership when those situations did not produce the promised results. . in textbooks across the Phillips curve.
Of course, there will have to be a date between employment and inflation at the point of consumption, but at that time points were misinterpreted that would offset inflation expectations as an acceleration of technological progress, such as the negative aspect of globalization. A total elegance of employment opportunities had been relocated, thus hollowing out the interior average elegance, restricting domestic production and weakening production. Unfortunately, this evacuation of opportunities for medium elegance has left the country mired in a state of income inequality greater than in previous years.
How does the Fed do it? Can or even the Fed deal with this? This is far from enforcing stability and the maximum number of sustainable jobs.
My view is that this Fed has done a great job in reaction to the closure of the economy due to the pandemic. Yes, the balance is out of control. This condition will inevitably accumulate further. Fiscal policy has been competitive so far. The central bank had to finance this at minimal cost to the government. While both sides agree, more will be needed. The Fed will fund that, too.
The Fed also had to grease pipelines across the economy and keep pipes blank in the medium term. This helps keep spot markets operational overnight. This allows states, municipalities and businesses to remain liquid, when they may not otherwise be liquid.
Does that distort the risk belief? Distorting what happens in 2020 as a noteworthy discovery? Does this create the possibility of bubbles that look wonderful for those in the right position at the right time? Yes, all of the above, but what would you like to do with the central bank? Sit in the stands and watch the economy get into total depression, or just let cash speed not only slow down, but also stop? No. The Fed has positioned itself in the unenviable position of keeping interest rates where they are, reacting to near-banked labor markets, adjusting to domestic production or economic growth.
The Fed will have to sign a tolerance for emerging inflation without reacting accordingly to what could have been adequate action on short-term interest rates. Dangerous? Yes. For you and me.
However, it is almost universally accepted that Powell, beyond the educational details required through explanation, will point to a higher tolerance for higher levels of inflation. He has heard about the average target, which only means that the central bank will remain inactive in terms of rates while inbound inflation rises above 2% in an attempt to offset a long era of exceeding that target. Playing with fire? Depends on who you are.
Are you the federal government, a regional or local government, a heavily indebted company? So maybe that’s exactly what the doctor prescribed. Are you a very indebted home? Everything will go well, as long as I can earn more. Can you earn more? Probably not with 28 million more people on the sidelines. The time to ask for a construction is not now. Do you live on a steady income? Or have you spent your life looking to save some money every year? Yes, for youArray … it’s probably bad news. In fact, he doesn’t want inflation, at least not before growth.
— Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley (KISS), 1975
We had a guy on Wall Street in the 1980s, let’s call him “Chuckie Nightlife.” Chuckie passed out every night and was shown for paintings the next day, in play position, injured or not.
You may not forget or possibly don’t forget that the 1980s were a little crazy. A decade of excess, especially on Wall Street. I made a call for myself on the street because I wasn’t one of the boys. In fact, I made a lot of money covering the bills of guys who were too ill of health to answer their own phone in the morning. Oh, the guy on the other side of the phone was doing the same thing as me. Because the two primaries probably had been combined the day before. Safeguards helped us whenever we were reliable. Chuckie, however, never needed help. Chuckie rolled around and rolled all night and worked hard every day. I don’t know what happened to this guy, but I’ll never know how it went.
At least in terms of stock, stocks were probably going up on Wednesday. Internet shares skyrocketed, led by Facebook (FB) and Netflix (NFLX). Software stocks have taken over. Salesforce (CRM) illuminated the road, and the path was followed very closely through Workday (WDAY), coupa (COUP), and Adobe (ADBE). For the check-in, Workday reports tonight.
Oh, do you kids see Sarge Zuora’s (ZUO) favorite on Wednesday? Take undeniable moving averages of more than 50 days and two hundred days in a single move. Nice work, Tien. Yes, the Nasdaq Composite and the S-P 500 set a new all-time record. The technology-focused Nasdaq 100 outperformed any of them.
So it’s all on all fronts? Not exactly.
Small and medium-sized businesses carried him on his chin. More or less shipments changed from one aspect to another at a lower price, under the pressure of airlines. The losers beat the winners on the New York Stock Exchange and the Nasdaq market site. Higher trading volumes on this negative scale on the NYSE. This can be just a flashing yellow light.
The volume of trades on Nasdaq makes interpretation more complex. While the losers beat the winners between four and three, the volume increase decisively outweighs the declining volume. What this tells you is that trading is what’s trendy. What’s not fashionable is not trade. Lately it is a speed-based and algorithm-based market. It’s not hard to cook with a cigarette off, while searching your screens to make a big decision. He retired 20 years ago.
Oh, did I tell you the VIX went up 6% on Wednesday, ahead of the Fed? I think you might have missed that one.
The World Economic Forum in Davos will be delayed by 2021 until next summer. Well, lah-dee-dah. What about that? Why not… hit, boy. You’re not that vital and you’ve never been. We have genuine disorders now, so up close… go your way and don’t bother us.
Tesla (TSLA) rose another 6.4% on Wednesday. Before the stock department five to 1 this weekend. That’s $129 more for other chart watchers. I don’t meet the goal, but I have a two- and five-year-old son. He works hard for both one and two days. Nothing financial. He works with his hands. The child has only one action: Tesla. I have no idea how much percentage this kid is earning me this year, but he’s not around. I’m sure. It helps me stay wondering what he deserves to do with him now. I’m telling him he’d taken away my winnings a long time ago, to accept it as true with each other. They were different. It’s Harmon Killebrew. I’m Rod Carew. That’s his argument.
Among a plethora of higher value targets are rumors of a technological breakthrough announced through the company on September 22, Battery Day. Have you heard the term “million-mile battery”? What does that do with affordability or margin? Could you improve Tesla’s finances from a basic point of view while increasing customer appeal? One thing I know, never bet against this guy (Musk) in size. For casual business and for pleasures only. This guy’s the Mark Messier from the fundraiser.
I don’t think anyone lost the way he reacted to Tesla’s inventory last week when Wedbush analyst Dan Ives set a $1,900 value target on inventory with a bullish case of $2,500 and then raised the bullish case to $3,500 consistent with the pair. days later. Well, on Thursday, Ives there again. This time, the Apple Beneficiary (AAPL).
Ives has moved its value target for AAPL from $515 to $600. He moved his bull case up to $700 from $600. Ives, which my son is following now, sees a “once a decade” opportunity for the company to make about 350 million updates over a year and a portion as 5G-capable iPhones begin to deploy. Tim Cook. There’s a guy not to bet on.
