Please click here for a chart of Nasdaq 100 ETF (QQQ).
Note the following:
- The Fed Chair Powell is clearly a very intelligent and accomplished person.
- Members of the FOMC are excellent economists.
- When the economy was locked down last year, the policies the Fed came up with were the right policies.
- Subsequent to the initiation of these policies, the following new developments occurred.
- Successful vaccines came along.
- The economy opened up.
- Millions of new jobs opened up.
- House prices shot up.
- The stock market moved into bubble territory.
- Trump was defeated and Democrats control all three branches of the government.
- On the fiscal side, the government is borrowing recklessly as if there is no tomorrow.
- A big conundrum has been that the Fed got stuck and maintained the original policies ignoring the new reality.
- Today for the first time, Powell showed a slight tilt towards sensibility.
- Powell acknowledged that inflation is running substantially higher than the Fed’s target.
- Powell acknowledged that the risk of inflation is to the upside.
- Powell acknowledged that inflation may turn out to be higher and more persistent than he expects.
- Powell acknowledged that progress has been made towards conditions to taper.
- The chart shows when the Fed statement was released.
- Typically momo buys after the Fed statement.
- The chart shows that buying after the Fed statement is muted.
- The VUD indicator is the most sensitive measure of net supply demand in real-time. The orange represents net supply and the green represents net demand.
- The chart shows that the VUD indicator is mixed after the Fed statement. Expectations were for the VUD indicator to be solid green.
- The explanation is that the momo feeds on excessive money printing and reckless borrowing. Here Powell is taking a slight tilt towards sensible policies – this is bad news for the momo crowd.
- It is said that in a bull market everybody is a genius. Going forward, investors will need to be more judicious and also work on their knowledge and skills to continue to succeed.
