This Week inwards Barrons: 3-10-2019:
Thoughts on MMT:
One of the themes inwards this coming election wheel volition hold upward a force for credence of Modern Monetary Theory (MMT). This is non a novel concept, just i that's beingness given a lot of air fourth dimension due to the advancement of socialism. The basic premise of MMT is that if you lot are a nation using a fiat currency – you lot tin never run out of that money because you lot tin ever impress to a greater extent than of it. Therefore, nosotros inwards the U.S. should only impress all the money nosotros demand to supply all of the services nosotros require such as: costless medical care, costless education, together with costless homes to the homeless. What nearly the debts? MMT theorists debate that our debts don't affair because nosotros only owe the money to ourselves. When the bills come upward due – only impress to a greater extent than money to pay them.
Now, before you lot ringlet your eyes – this isn't some ‘johnny-come-lately’ concept. Japan has been engaged inwards a cast of MMT for over 20 years. And before it becomes the nub of 2020 election speak, nosotros should select a infinitesimal to sympathize why some of the presidential candidates volition hold upward proposing the change. To bag an excerpt from the movie Vice: “Modern Monetary Theory is a schoolhouse of economic science that says our panic over gov’t budget deficits is delusional together with misguided. Under a fiat currency system, a gov’t tin impress equally much money equally it needs – equally long equally it tin mobilize the necessary labor, machinery, together with raw materials to supply the appropriate world services. Money is null to a greater extent than than what you lot give the overnice lady before she hands you lot the H2O ice cream cone. The U.S. dollar is non a lump of gold, but rather an IOU from the U.S. Gov’t. It agency that the federal regime can't run out of cash. It tin run out of things money tin purchase – which volition drive upward prices together with exertion inflation – but it can't run out of money. Exactly similar Macy’s can’t run out of Macy's gift cards."
This is the platform that AOC, Bernie Sanders together with many others are running on. So, is it hogwash or the Holy Grail? Unfortunately, the thought of a nation printing all the money it needs to pay its debts together with create economical activity is equally one-time equally fourth dimension – but the call is new. For years, some of the brightest people remove hold said that when a nation’s debt to gross domestic product ratio approaches 100% - it’s pretty much going to implode. Currently, Nippon is running at a 235% debt to gross domestic product ratio – together with they are really much alive. What happened?
As I've mentioned many times, debts that cannot hold upward paid – won’t hold upward paid. But if you lot command your Central Bank, hence you lot tin only impress all the money you lot demand to encompass your debts together with move on similar null is wrong. So, where's the flaw? Well, the MMT crowd volition tell you lot that whatsoever unemployment or depression lineament of living is non a final result of also much debt, but rather a final result of non plenty buyers for the right products. We don’t remove hold plenty of the right people having adequate funds to purchase the right goods together with services. So inwards a perfect world, we’d give everyone inwards that grouping plenty cash to move out together with purchase those specific items together with our gross domestic product would rising accordingly.
The job alongside the inwards a higher identify scenario is that it causes hyper-inflation. If the FED (right now) gave everyone $25,000 they would run out together with pass it similar madmen. Certain items would ‘sell out’ together with their replacements would come upward at higher prices. People who were working on those elements would demand higher wages, together with those increases would also ripple into the price. Without fifty-fifty considering international merchandise and currency effects, every nation that has ever attempted this – ended upward attaining third-world condition because they could never just target the individualized gifts. From the Weimar Republic inwards Germany, to Zimbabwe, Argentina, together with Venezuela – giving governments the powerfulness to impress freely has ever guaranteed hyperinflation. Economist Paul Krugman writes: “When people human face inflation, they move reluctant to remove hold cash, which drives prices upward together with causes the gov’t to impress fifty-fifty to a greater extent than money to extract the same amount of existent resources – which agency fifty-fifty higher inflation."
It doesn't surprise me that politicians would similar to run on: costless healthcare, costless education, together with costless housing. History shows that hyperinflation is the cost of printing to a greater extent than money to pay for these novel debts. But I am NOT naïve plenty to think that our politicians won't try. They must attempt something, because our normal economical policies are stretched to the limit. Our debts are unpayable, together with either must hold upward discharged via a global reset, or washed away yesteryear adopting some cast of MMT. Japan has managed to remain afloat yesteryear using negative involvement rates – which has kept involvement payments on their debt burden manageable. Japanese concern taxes are also really high along alongside their import duties. Currently, fifty-fifty the most liberal of economists believe that yesteryear 2040 – Nippon volition default on virtually everything.
Over the adjacent eighteen months, MMT volition move a mainstream talking point. Our options surrounding managing our debt are slim indeed: (a) a global reset, or (b) some cast of MMT leading to hyperinflation. As the proponents claim MMT to hold upward our debt savior, just maintain call for yourself: “If it didn’t move inwards Rome, Germany, Zimbabwe, Argentina, together with Venezuela – why would it move hither together with now?” The response is: it won’t, but it volition hold upward an interesting political process.
Our Manipulated Market:
The S&P 500′s price-earnings ratio is suggesting that the marketplace is ignoring all economical reality. At 2,743, the S&P 500 is trading over sixteen times its 2019 earnings estimate. On a valuation basis, the marketplace has risen to reverberate a mainstreet environs that is to a greater extent than positive than the i nosotros currently remove hold – together with that makes me nervous. The S&P’s monster rally has notched the best two-month start to a twelvemonth since 1991, but seems to hold upward ignoring the economical realities associated alongside slowing global growth, downward earnings revisions, recession fears, together with our ain FED’s tightening possibilities. According to Tom Essaye of Stevens Report Research: “Stock valuations are also high – fifty-fifty assuming that the risks would hold upward resolved inwards a positive fashion.” Our start quarter earnings growth forecasts remove hold turned negative, together with consensus gross domestic product growth has also been slashed to below 2%. Some think that the marketplace is running on hopium - regarding a Red People's Republic of China bargain together with our FED beingness patient. I’m to a greater extent than pragmatic together with human face toward corporate buybacks together with the Plunge Patrol Team equally our marketplace drivers. Torsten Slok, Deutsche Bank’s Chief International Economist, believes that our markets volition decline an additional 10% to come upward inwards draw alongside a fifteen times S&P multiplier.
On a unlike note, concluding calendar week Facebook’s CEO Mark Zuckerberg had a condition update for the world. It seems that due to privacy issues, Facebook, Instagram together with WhatsApp all had a terrible 2018. Cambridge Analytica used FB to access tens of millions of users' information without their knowledge. FB was the ‘go-to’ site for Russian together with Iranian trolls. #DeleteFacebook was trending. There was another data hack, a bug, some telephone monitoring, some opposition enquiry drama, and calls for Zuckerberg to prove abroad. This yesteryear calendar week ‘the Zuck’ told us that he knows things went off the rails, together with his novel programme is to revamp the company's products alongside his customer’s privacy inwards mind. FB volition displace away from its public 'sharing is caring'vibe to focus to a greater extent than on private, grouping chats. He talked nearly private, secure, deletable, together with rubber messaging. He used the word 'encryption'a lot. This is a large shift yesteryear a huge company. Mark said that it volition select a few years to achieve this feat. Critics are naturally skeptical that the platform that has move synonymous alongside privacy problems tin somehow remake itself equally privacy's best friend. To quote ‘For The People’: “We smash pictures online of people we’ve never met. We destroy existent people’s reputations alongside uncomplicated keystrokes. We atomic number 82 lives that are (in i way or another) detached, artificial, together with simulated – yesteryear using faux money, faux violence, faux love, together with faux friends. Sometime nosotros demand to select responsibleness for how disconnected together with disassociated we’ve become.” 2.7B people work Facebook together with its services to communicate. So changes inwards its platform roughly comport on 1/3 of the world’s communicating population. So Zuck, nosotros truly demand you lot to seat ‘right’ before ‘profitability’ on this one, together with I (for one) am non for certain that’s fifty-fifty a dream allow lonely a possibility inwards your world.

Last Week (we learned):
Over inwards Europe: the Manufacturing PMI slid downward to 49.3 (contracting), led yesteryear Federal Republic of Federal Republic of Germany together with Italy. Even the forward-looking indicators are tilted to the downside. Euro-area factories suffered their biggest drib inwards orders inwards almost 6 years inwards Feb amidst mounting concern over merchandise tariffs together with Brexit. Companies continued to study excess capacity together with inflation pressures non seen since 2016. “Euro-area manufacturing has been inwards its deepest downturn for almost half dozen years,”said Chris Williamson, Chief Business Economist at IHS Markit. “While factories move on to create novel jobs, they are probable to hold upward to a greater extent than cautious inwards hiring together with investment, together with instead focus on cost control.”
On Friday, the ECB said that it would hold upward keeping involvement rates depression through 2020 inwards gild to stimulate Europe's economy. The ECB also launched its tertiary iteration of a computer programme of inexpensive loans – known equally targeted long-term refinancing operations, or TLTROs – to eurozone banks. This comes after our FED pumped the brakes on raising our ain involvement rates, together with signals from countries around the reason move on to confirm a global economical slowdown. China's economic scheme looks a lot to a greater extent than wobbly equally of tardily alongside exports plunging 21% in February. That's the weakest performance inwards three years, together with it was a lot worse than economists had predicted. The International Monetary Fund is expecting global economical growth to decline, together with the ECB warned of a sizeable reduction inwards economical expansion.
Unfortunately, Mario Draghi’s accommodative monetary stance couldn’t stimulate whatsoever algo-buying concluding week. In months gone by, a monetary about-face similar Draghi did, would remove hold sent the DOW upward 300 points. Instead, nosotros went inwards the other administration on all the major indices – cutting through their respective 200-day moving averages. The plunge (once again) came on above-average volume.
Weed together with BioTech:
- Medicines (MDCO): Medicines is a $1.1B bio-pharmaceutical fellowship that provides medication to care for acuate together with intensive assist patients.

Next Week:
Make for certain you lot sympathize where I'm at. The marketplace does NOT belong at this grade because the fundamentals don't back upward it. The transports remove hold rolled over from their down-sloping tendency line. The Baltic Dry Index of shippers is moving lower along alongside global markets. Logic says nosotros should hold upward on an escalator down, but Central Bank money together with purchase backs (not logic) determine this market. So, piece nosotros should hold upward falling similar a rock, it tin alone remove identify if they allow it.
1. This calendar week the S&Ps were expected to displace $33 either higher or lower, together with inwards reality they moved $60 lower. For adjacent calendar week the expected displace has increased to $43 – landing the SPX anywhere betwixt 2,700 together with roughly 2,800.
2. The Yield Curve is Inverted!– which is an accurate predictor of a recession. The graph inwards a higher identify shows the 1 calendar month to 1-year charge per unit of measurement – exceeding the 5-year rate. Also:
a. German mill orders were expected to rising 5%, instead they roughshod -2.5%.
b. Chinese exports declined over 20%.
c. And a major Chinese brokerage draw of piece of work solid came out alongside a SELL on all Chinese stocks – which agency that they got approving to give that recommendation from the Chinese Government itself.
3. The ECB’s Mario Draghi turned the liquidity (capital injection) spigots dorsum on.
4. The Goldilocks Scenario is inwards play – pregnant the worse the economical information gets – the to a greater extent than global Central Banksters volition ‘juice’ their respective economies. Sooner or after the marketplace volition plough its dorsum on the Central Banks. This calendar week was i of those times when the U.S. showed incredibly bad information inwards virtually every property class. The FED stepped inwards alongside liquidity, but the financials (the principal recipient of the liquidity) were sold difficult together with fast – closing below 26.50 on the XLF.
5. Bonds remove hold reversed course of instruction together with are dorsum inwards rally way – alongside the 1, 3, together with 6 calendar month bond rates exceeding that of the 5-year.
6. The S&Ps were rejected (again) at the 2800 level, but in that location is no argue to ‘short it’ downward here. My proposition would hold upward to hold back for a rally prior to initiating whatsoever shorts.
7. Ideas going forward:
a. Utility ETF (XLU) – Money is flowing into this sector rapidly. When it pulls dorsum adjacent calendar week – bring together the party.
b. Boeing (BA) – in i lawsuit it rallies adjacent week, brusk it downward into the $300 level.
c. Financial ETF (XLF) – is a continued brusk below $26.50
i. Goldman Sachs (GS) – brusk it piece the XLF is below $26.50
ii. Wells Fargo (WFC) – brusk it piece the XLF is below $26.50
d. Home Builders ETF (XHB) – brusk it out into May, and
e. Consumer Discretionary ETF (XLY) – on a displace inwards a higher identify $110 – brusk it.
On Monday, if markets don't rescue the 2,750 level, the adjacent steps downward are inwards 50 indicate intervals. We should hold upward headed lower because the economical tidings has been horrid. Another 400 retail stores are closing, three to a greater extent than retailers declared bankruptcy, Friday’s Jobs Report was dismal – but fifty-fifty that was a fallacy. Inside of those 20,000 jobs created were 135,000 created via the Birth/Death model. So without those faux 135k jobs, our economic scheme truly LOST 117,000 jobs inwards February. Our markets should hold upward headed lower, but a sniff of a Red People's Republic of China bargain volition hold upward met alongside some buying. Words of QE from our FED volition exertion buying. Stock buybacks volition encourage to a greater extent than buying. So if they wish to create a rising marketplace – they can. But they'd likely hold upward okay alongside a managed fade. After all, inwards October, Nov together with December, nosotros saw a marketplace hitting 2,800 together with ringlet over. And after falling for a dyad weeks, it turned around together with challenged 2,800 again. The fact that Friday’s Jobs Report did non send us 500 points lower suggests that this marketplace is definitely beingness managed / manipulated. So, if nosotros rescue the 2,750 grade early on adjacent week, it is non out of the inquiry that nosotros revisit 2,800 before long – no affair how lousy the economical reports. The marketplace is weak, together with the economic scheme is weaker than we're beingness led to believe. But our politicians wish to brand things human face skillful is without equal. I’m non making whatsoever large bets either way right now.

Thoughts:
- Starbucks (SBUX): I tin say, alongside 100% certainty that SBUX’s new ‘Cloud Macchiato’will never cross my lips. That just agency in that location volition hold upward to a greater extent than for Ariana (Vente) Grande. With java futures on a losing streak, SBUX has been reaping the rewards of inexpensive raw materials. The final result is that SBUX is trading close an all-time-high. But, fifty-fifty I remove hold to inquire how much higher tin it go? Earnings are coming upward on Apr 25, together with its implied volatility rank is a mere 16% - debit spread territory. If you’re bearish on SBUX, the long seat vertical that’s brusk the $65 PUT together with long the $70 PUT inwards the Apr monthly expiration has a 62% probability of making 50% of its max turn a profit before expiration.
- Deutsche Bank (DB) : Ach du lieber! Deutsche Bank (DB) is cutting banker bonuses together with considering closing its equity concern after it lost $750m concluding year. Apparently, buying the dips inwards Dec didn’t move out hence well. But DB’s Equity Division has non been profitable for a few years – hence they seem to remove hold problem trading the rallies equally well. It’s fifty-fifty struggling to retain its talent – which may hold upward a skillful thing. We’ve seen this pic before – recall Lehman? DB is upward 12% this year, together with this could hold upward the stock’s concluding hurrah. If you lot think DB mightiness drib together with are bearish, the long seat vertical that’s brusk the $7 PUT together with long the $9 PUT inwards the Apr monthly expiration has a 62% probability of making 50% of its max turn a profit before expiration.
