Reflation & recovery, tax & spend, fade the Fed reaction

CNBC Reflation & Recovery

Figure 2: The recovery of import prices began with détente in the Trump trade war and has continued through the pandemic. The easing of the demand for dollar denominated safe assets and associated dollar decline is a contributing factor, unlike the last cycle we do not expect imported deflation to resume as global supply chains are restructured to reduce risk.

Skew collapses as Nasdaq positions get rinsed, banks are flush & inflation awakens

Please listen to our podcast for a summary of the latest weekly note 2020 QE is Different this Time

Figure 2: Most investors think of skew (the premium for out-of-the-money options) in terms of downside put protection, however skew was rich all summer largely due to demand for upside calls on pandemic beneficiaries and the winner-take-most technology companies. Skew cheapened considerably during the 10% Nasdaq correction implying investor bullish bets have been reduced.

Micro to macro, high powered money, the tech wreck, Keynesian stimulus and herd immunity

Please listen to our podcast for a summary of the latest weekly note Rational Expectations

I will be appearing on CNBC’s The Exchange with Kelly Evans at 1pm EST Monday July 27

Figure 6: The election curve is steepening, this is part of the explanation for the still elevated measures of equity market risk. It is quite unusual to have a flat/upward sloping VIX futures term structure with the near month in the mid-20s. As one former colleague told us, short volatility strategies were eviscerated in March. Hedging election risk is expensive, we prefer holding cash and gold.

Supply side stimulus, economic momentum, earnings surprise and Fed strategy

Please listen to our podcast for a summary of the latest weekly note Ironsides Macroeconomics

Figure 6: The US economic surprise index is at an all-time high and has continued to increase relentlessly underscoring how misunderstood economic dynamism is in the US relative to the rest of the world. The greater role of technology is central to the dynamism.

US innovation, back to work, capex plans recover, wage rigidity and imported deflation

Please listen to our podcast for a summary of the latest weekly note from Ironsides Macroeconomics: https://ironsidesmacro.substack.com

Figure 2: The widening spread between the cumulative increase in initial claims and continuing claims is our proxy for back-to-work. The insured unemployment rate and continuing claims have stalled implying that the U3 unemployment rate has not changed much since the May employment report. However, our back-to-work proxy points to another gain in employment in June.
