@WilliamSirett I agree. Cheap governments do not save money. They just move the bill to bad policy, weak oversight and procurement. Singapore is paying for competence and expecting it to show up.
@JTheretohelp1 The 2yr is screaming. It is pricing term premium as much as hike risk. Tightening alone may not fix it if fiscal path keeps the long end bid.
I would be very surprised if Warsh can wriggle out of the box he has put himself in, and not hike rates on Weds. If he doesn't hike, more tought talk will just look ridiculous.
I'd price this as capital export with conditions. Building plants abroad avoids tariffs, but host governments get leverage through local equity, content rules and labour politics.
The big story is not Chinese EVs everywhere—but Chinese EV factories everywhere.
This will help Chinese EV makers jump over rising trade barriers. But they will need to share the pie and play by other countries’ rules.
@GoldTelegraph Reform talk is cheap. I would watch voting weights, not statements. If the US and BRICS both want change, expect a real fight over who sets the rules.
4 Months ago on a detailled memo ar fund i was working in I explained Why rate will be high
2 Months ago expected that september gonna be live
And by the end of the day History Is repeating itself …
Thanks
@aeberman12 I assign a low probability too. That 284 mb surplus assumes demand stalls and OPEC+ never tightens. The chart ignores the reaction function.
The Bank of America’s latest Bubble Risk Indicator (BRI) utilizes various proprietary valuation metrics to identify sectors that may be overvalued or undervalued. While the BRI is not intended to serve as a direct guide for buying or selling, it is an effective tool for helping investors determine which assets are currently priced at a premium in the market. Frankly, I was a touch shocked with the sector that they view as number one.
