The Next Financial Crisis Is Unfolding And The Fed Can't Stop It (Feb. 4, 2024)

The Maverick of Wall Street...

Summary

 

The potential unfolding financial crisis is being driven by a combination of factors including commercial real estate, inflation, massive debt accumulation, and overvaluation of the stock market, leading to concerns about a major economic downturn.

 

Economic indicators of the unfolding financial crisis

 
  • The main culprit of the unfolding financial crisis appears to be commercial real estate, causing banks to take a nose dive.
  • The cutting of dividends by banks due to loan loss provisions indicates a potential unfolding financial crisis.
  • The potential of massive inflation due to Middle East conflicts could be a result of lowering interest rates.
  • Trillions of dollars of debt accumulated under quantitative easing and zero interest rates now has to be refinanced at a higher rate, adding pressure on the economy.
  • The Federal Reserve’s decision to lower interest rates and resume quantitative easing could drive inflation higher for longer, potentially leading to another shocking episode.
  • Banks continuing to borrow from the Fed’s facility raises the question of whether the Fed can cancel this facility and what happens to the obligations of these banks.
  • The crisis in regional banks and commercial real estate could lead to a major economic downturn if interest rate cuts don’t happen.
  • The lack of foreign buyers for US debt and the potential dumping of treasuries could lead to higher rates and cause major problems in the economy.
  • The US Treasury has issued a record $2 trillion in new debt this year, while foreign demand for US debt has not increased, leading to major supply and demand changes in the Treasury market.
     

Market bubble and potential stock market crash

 
  • The stock market is reliving the Dotcom Tech bubble as The Magnificent 7 account for 45% of the S&P 500 gains to start the year with the market cap of 12.5 trillion.
  • The current stock market valuations are even higher now than they were at the tech bubble peak of 2000, indicating a potential similar decline in the coming recession.
  • The over concentration of the market is way bigger than the Dotcom bubble, with 10 stocks forming over 30% of the value of the S&P 500.
  • The bearish view that the recession is the inevitable outcome of this cycle right here and the bubble will only add to the magnitude of the stock market crash.
