The inflation number has not gotten out of range, despite the breathtaking increase in the monetary base. The mainstream includes all causes of rising prices in their definition of inflation. We differentiate nonmonetary forces pushing up prices from the monetary forces pushing them d...
We lay out three reasons why we see a strong economic restart, rather than a normal recovery, and believe markets still underappreciate its size and speed. U.S. Treasury yields hit 13-month highs. We see the recent rise in real yields as justified given the growth outlook and remain t...
Doctor Doom, Henry Kaufman, former chief economist at Salomon Brothers, is back and "... sees danger in the markets and economy." The secular bear market that took hold of the index in 1966 bottomed in the fall of 1974, breaking below 600 on the industrials for a brief period. That be...
While a steepening yield curve sows the seeds of its own destruction via an ever more attractive roll and carry, especially with forward guidance on the front end, there is always a risk that markets end up questing the commitment to low policy rates. When Mr. Powell says that the Fed...

Today the Fed released its estimates of household net worth as of the end of December 2020. Net worth has reached a new record high in nominal, real, and per capita terms. The private sector of the US economy currently has a net worth (total assets minus liabilities) of more than $130...
The stakes are high as we head to 31st March. By then, the positive leeway the Fed gave to US banks on how to treat Treasuries and reserves comes to an end, unless the Fed decides to extend it. We think they will, but not with conviction. If they don't, there are $600 billion of T...
