We should keep emotions out of financial decisions ...we all are market literate enough to understand that economy has to be in recession and labour market in doldrums before the big rate cuts can happen ...Conditions are getting there...Markets will keep rejoicing in 2024 in anticipation of lower rates thus higher multiples and better eps leading to higher valuations ...both multiples will expand and eps growth will happen ahead
FPH showed the way ...so will MFT and IFT and SUM etc ....Its aways past history of rate cycle repeating itself ...nothing different this time ....think 2010 onwards after GFC ....
I dont know why u still thinking bearish ? Maybe not yet. done your shopping !! U r savvy enough to know whats happening in market will be the trend ahead ....two up days one down day type ...
PS : Grab some KFL and sleep peacefully for next 5-7 years ...still giving u NZX blue chips at almost 10% discount...lol
There’s a lot of chatter that one of most consequential shifts in global markets over the next decade would be a re-pricing of neutral rate expectations.
For ages it has been sround 2.0%-2.5%, but there’s increasing evidence that in future it may be higher, even 4-5%.
This chatter equates to similar ideas not. so long ago suggesting neutral rates moving notch down from LT averages ...
Inflation control ...main purpose of rates ...so if one. study Inflation expectations ...its reasons etc. then one can drive future LT rates expectations
Recent Inflation flare up was caused by mainly supply side issues / sudden spurt in demand after pandemic shift in human behaviour and excess supply of money to keep masses in good mood while locked or in mental distress caused by pandemic conditions etc ...all these are one off not regular features to be included in LT analysis ...
But on the other hand AI has the. potential to BOOST tremendously human productivity thus causing supply side GLUT leading to very benign rates outlook
I am in the latter AI driven productivity boost supply glut camp thus in benign rates outlook ...LT rates can only come down not move up ...if Inflation control is their only objective ...not politics etc
