Video: Discussing US economy, Debt Ceiling, Europe and Banks

In this video, we discuss a few issues, including:

  • ECB is caught between a rock and a hard place with the Euro.
  • Strong Euro could derail the European Stock Market recovery. Bad for banks and inflation linked assets.
  • Reflation Trade is over. Inflation expectations falling in US and Europe
  • Market was too worried about the debt ceiling.
  • Expect less rate hikes from the Fed. Financial conditions easing. Buy US stocks
  • Oil below $50 in the middle of North Korea tensions and Hurricane Season means it will drift lower when things normalise
  • Tensions with North Korea will likely hurt global trade

Video: How Jackson Hole Rocked Consensus

Yellen and Draghi seemed to say very little at Jackson Hole, but the market made a lot of assumptions.

In this video we explain how post-Jackson Hole, consensus is shifting towards believing in perpetuated loose policies, and the warning signs in oil prices falling in tandem with the US dollar as well as Gold.

Enjoy!
