Bond vigilantes are "saddling up" again as federal deficits balloon, said market veteran Ed Yardeni. And I think the bond vigilantes are quite concerned about that." Now there are signs they are stirring again as bond yields continue to climb despite signs of cooling inflation. And I think the bond vigilantes are quite concerned about that," he said. In a now-legendary commentary from 1983 titled "Bond Investors Are the Economy's Bond Vigilantes," Yardeni warned, "So if the fiscal and monetary authorities won't regulate the economy, the bond investors will.

"It's been almost two years since China Evergrande Group, once China's largest real estate developer, shocked the financial markets by defaulting on $340 billion in debt. Since then, the Chinese real estate market has been in a serious slump," wrote Ed Yardeni of Yardeni Research. Investment in real estate fell 8.5% y/y during the first seven months of this year."

☆ Premarket stocks: Does it matter whether the Federal Reserve hikes or pauses rates in September?

New York CNN —After the Federal Reserve raised interest rates in July to the highest level in 22 years, Wall Street’s focus is on whether September will bring another rate hike. But does it really matter whether the Fed raises or pauses rates next month? Before the Bell: Does it matter whether the Fed raises rates in September by another quarter point or holds steady instead? And, that earnings can grow even in an environment where interest rates are back to levels that they have been in for the past couple of decades. Year-over-year comparisons should improve, but I think investors want to see that.

☆ The Fed can take the rest of the year off as inflation is crumbling and there's no recession in sight, market vet Ed Yardeni says
▼ + stars: | 2023-08-11 | by ( Jennifer Sor | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +3 min

The Fed can take the rest of 2023 off, according to market veteran Ed Yardeni. The US may be able to avoid a recession after all as the economy enters a "rolling recovery," he added. Inflation is dropping, and there's no sign that the economy will tip into the recession investors have fretted about, according to Ed Yardeni. But if shelter prices were excluded from the July CPI, inflation has already back down to 2%, Yardeni said. And shelter inflation has shown signs of falling in recent months, which will eventually reflect in the official inflation statistics, Yardeni said.

☆ These 5 bearish arguments have yet to derail the stock market rally

There are five major bearish arguments for an imminent recession and a falling stock market. Here's why each of the bearish arguments have yet to put a dent in the stock market rally. According to Wednesday note from market veteran Ed Yardeni, all of the bearish arguments supporting a stock market sell-off and eventual recession have fallen flat, and that means there could be more gains ahead. These are the five bearish arguments for the stock market, and why they haven't yet derailed the current rally, according to Yardeni. "This conclusion is confirmed by Fed data on the ownership of deposits plus money market funds by generation cohorts."

☆ Looming inflation report could hold an unpleasant surprise for markets

The central bank district's Inflation Nowcast model points to a 0.4% rise that would equate to a 3.4% annual rate. "Rent could be an important source of a positive (moderating) surprise in July's CPI," Yardeni wrote. 'Sticky' inflation persists But inflation has proven more persistent than most policymakers, particularly those at the Fed, would have thought. In fact, the Atlanta Fed's sticky CPI is still at 5.8% on a 12-month basis — though 2.9% at an annualized pace — after peaking at 6.7% earlier this year. Moreover, Thursday's core CPI reading is expected to show core inflation running at a 4.7% annual level, just a tad below the June reading.

☆ Stock-market investors rarely see a recession coming despite warning signals. As all the classic alarm bells ring again, this time is no different, experts say — setting investors up to get crushed.

The S&P 500 has rallied 17% year-to-date, but the Treasury yield curve and LEI point to a downturn. For Rosenberg, the difference is that we currently have an inverted yield curve, a recession signal that has preceded every downturn since the 1960s. An inverted yield curve means that rates on short-duration Treasurys rise higher than rates on long-duration Treasurys. The yield curve inverts often during Fed hiking cycles because short-term Treasury rates track closely along with the fed funds rate. The below chart shows the share of consecutive trading days where the yield curve has been inverted.

One of the most accurate recession predictors is only half right, market veteran Ed Yardeni told Insider. The yield curve has been inverted for more than a year, but it doesn't mean a recession is ahead. For years, he has been saying the inverted yield curve is an indicator for a process, not a recession. In 2019, he coauthored a paper titled "The Yield Curve: What Is It Really Predicting?" What does the inverted yield curve say?

Corporate profits are on pace to fall 9% through roughly a fifth of the Q2 earnings season, which is about 6 percentage points better than anticipated, according to Morgan Stanley. Morgan StanleyIn fact, the firm found that earnings revisions decelerated in two thirds of industries in the weeks since early July. That's cause for concern as a seasonally challenging time for revisions nears — earnings revisions breadth traditionally trends downwards in the months of July through November. Morgan Stanley expects nominal earnings and sales growth to suffer as price growth slows faster than expected, even if long-awaited interest rate cuts come.

☆ Traders are wondering if now is the time for a summer market correction

After a string of up days, the old market leadership of technology and consumer discretionary is looking tired, and that is probably a good thing. Since 1950, August is the third-worst month for the S & P 500, while September is the worst month. That is "historically extreme," Todd Sohn from Strategas told me, though it is consistent with coming off major market lows. A torrid two-month rally has lifted the S & P Technology Sector (XLK) by 16%, but tech has mostly been for sale in the last few days. Still, for investors in the S & P 500, McClellan says no one should be surprised to see a summer correction in the next month or so.

☆ Investors will be disappointed by Bernstein’s estimated stock market returns for the next decade
▼ + stars: | 2023-07-19 | by ( Jeff Cox | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +3 min

Elevated stock market valuations suggest that returns for investors over the next decade could be meager, according to a Bernstein analysis. The Shiller PE or CAPE — that is, cyclically adjusted price to earnings ratio — sets the market multiple based on average inflation-adjusted earnings over the course of a decade. "The Shiller PE has historically been a good predictor of very long-run 10-year forward equity returns," the Bernstein analysts wrote. However, the firm notes that investors shouldn't forego stock market exposure even if returns are likely to be lower. Ed Yardeni of Yardeni Research said market valuations could be resetting as Big Tech companies powered by artificial intelligence dominate the market.

The market is fully expecting another interest rate hike from the Fed in July, after it skipped a rate hike in June. For the Fed, ideal inflation is in the target range of 2%. But he is more encouraged about the economy avoiding recession, which recent economic history said would not be possible. San Francisco Fed President Mary Daly expressed her commitment to lowering inflation even further on "Squawk on the Street" last week. "It's really too early to say that we can declare victory on inflation.

Goldman Sachs is bullish about stocks in the second half of 2023. Here are 17 stocks with dramatically higher 2024 earnings estimates from Goldman than the consensus. Instead of simply watching to see whether corporate profits continue to decline this quarter, Goldman Sachs is already keeping a pulse on next year's earnings growth. Unlike most of its peers, Goldman Sachs expects the S&P 500 to build on its gain, though its year-end price target of 4,500 suggests near-term upside will be hard to come by. David Kostin, the chief US equity strategist at Goldman Sachs, wrote in a note that just 33% of large-cap mutual fund managers beat their benchmark in the first half.
