We had already prepared ourselves for a hawkish Fed through the end of 2023, with the Fed&#39;s revised median terminal rate of 5.1% slightly ahead of the economists&#39; consensus.</p><p>Hence, the critical question is whether the Fed is committed to maintaining its inflation target of 2%, even as Fed Chair Jerome Powell brushed off any suggestion of a change.</p><p>Some commentators suggested that the Fed&#39;s credibility could be tested, as they view the target as &#34;no longer credible.&#34; For example, Pershing Square Capital Management founder Bill Ackman articulated that the Fed should adjust its target, seeing 3% as a viable target, as &#34;businesses need price stability, but can thrive in a world with 3% stable inflation.&#34;</p><p>Notwithstanding, former Treasury Secretary Lawrence Summers applauded the Fed&#39;s decision to keep to its 2% inflation target. Summers articulated that &#34;[he&#39;s] gratified to see the ways in which the Fed has caught up.&#34;</p><p>The Fed&#39;s revised summary of economic projections (SEP) suggests its PCE inflation forecasts have been raised to 2.1% by 2025 from its previous 2% projections in September. However, market forecasters are debating whether the Fed has incorporated the latest CPI report into its SEP, given the short notice from November&#39;s CPI release (December 13) to Powell&#39;s presser (December 14).</p><p>UBS Securities economist Alan Detmeister articulated that the Fed&#39;s SEP indicates that &#34;[it has] extremely strong December numbers for inflation written in.&#34; However, the timing of November&#39;s CPI print might not have been reflected accordingly, even though Powell maintained in the pressor that such data points had been considered. Detmeister highlighted:</p><blockquote>Very few of them would have probably gone ahead and updated their submissions and really worked out what it would&#39;ve taken in December to hit that target. - <i>Bloomberg</i></blockquote><h2>Is The Fed Willing To Drive A Deep Recession?</h2><p>Hence, investors looking through the recent media releases and commentary from economists and market strategists are likely more confused as they parse whether the Fed could be &#34;bluffing.&#34;</p><p>RBC chief US economist Tom Porcelli even argued: &#34;This aggressive hiking cycle is going to cause some damage. The Fed will cut rates twice in 2023.&#34;</p><p>Sure, bulls think that the Fed could be forced to cut rates, as even its revised SEP suggests a recession is looking increasingly likely. However, Powell declined to predict whether one could occur, emphasizing he doesn&#39;t have a crystal ball. Still, BofA strategists stressed that they see the potential for a &#34;Fed policy mistake driving hard landing.&#34;</p><p>However, Edward Yardeni maintained his call in his December 15 briefing that the Fed&#39;s &#34;soft-landing forecast makes sense to us.&#34;</p><p>Therefore, we believe investors have likely gleaned a series of confusing commentary rather than clarity as strategists and economists assess whether the Fed could force a recession to keep its commitment to pressing down inflation.</p><p>Furthermore, S&amp;P Global highlighted in a recent commentary that it sees inflationary pressures abating across the US economy, including services. It articulated:</p><blockquote>We got the steepest downturn we&#39;ve seen since the global financial crisis, if the initial lockdown period is excluded. The good news is that this downturn in the economy is alleviating inflationary pressures. - <i>WSJ</i></blockquote><p>Hence, could the Fed&#39;s head be turned, even as it expects to continue hiking rates through the end of 2023? Would the Fed be responsive enough to a potential policy error that could drive the economy to a deeper downturn than the FOMC had planned for?</p><p>Even Summers has not ruled out that the labor market could be hit with a &#34;particularly sharp weakening,&#34; helping to alleviate one of the most consistent drivers of inflation markedly.</p><h2>The Market Was Already Primed For A Pullback, Regardless</h2><p>However, despite the sharp recovery in October and the positive CPI print on Wednesday, we believe that market operators were never in doubt. The market was well-primed for a pullback. We also articulated in a recent commentary after the release of November&#39;s CPI metrics to our members:</p><blockquote><i>The market is still primed for a pullback.</i> I [have already] revised the <i>short-term market bias on November 22 to Bearish.</i> We got the [initial] pullback, but it wasn&#39;t enough on the medium-term chart. So, [on December 12], I revised [the short-term bias] to Neutral to reflect the recent pullback [as] short-term indicators [are] no longer overbought. But, with yesterday&#39;s [December 13, post-CPI release] possible bull trap price action, I&#39;ve revised it down one notch to Bearish-Neutral for our short-term bias. I will discuss this in more detail after we get more clarity on today&#39;s FOMC presser. - <i>Ultimate Growth Investing December 14 - Pre-market briefing</i></blockquote><p>That&#39;s right. The market has drawn in investors astutely into FOMO mode as they feared they missed its October lows. We highlighted to our members on October 21 that &#34;we have the bullish reversal condition that we need. So, we are good to go.&#34; During those days, we vividly recall that the media and strategists were highly pessimistic.</p><p>We even highlighted in October to members that &#34;money managers are sitting on the highest levels of dry powder waiting to be deployed in twenty years.&#34; Therefore, we aren&#39;t surprised that Bloomberg reported:</p><blockquote>After a month of drawing down positions, investors poured $25 billion in stocks in the week through Wednesday only to see the S&amp;P 500 plummet as the Federal Reserve and other central banks stuck with hawkish stances that threaten to spur a recession. - Bloomberg</blockquote><h2>Takeaway</h2><p>Recall we mentioned that we revised our short-term market bias to Bearish on November 22, nearly four weeks ago. The market had prepared for this moment for a while, drawing in unsuspecting retail/institutional investors into FOMO, anticipating the Santa Claus rally to unfold.</p><p>Our suggestion is this: Be wary. The pullback is likely far from over, and where it takes us next could portend whether October lows could be sustained. And don&#39;t FOMO again.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha_fund","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>The Fed Crushed Investors' Hopes Of A Santa Claus Rally</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nThe Fed Crushed Investors' Hopes Of A Santa Claus Rally\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-12-19 23:30 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4565109-fed-crushed-investors-hopes-santa-claus-rally><strong>Seeking Alpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryBloomberg reported investors poured nearly $25B into equities over the past week, as retail/institutional investors likely went into FOMO mode after the market bottomed in October.So the ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4565109-fed-crushed-investors-hopes-santa-claus-rally\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"BK4211":"区域性银行",".IXIC":"NASDAQ Composite",".DJI":"道琼斯",".SPX":"S&P 500 Index"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4565109-fed-crushed-investors-hopes-santa-claus-rally","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"2292886262","content_text":"SummaryBloomberg reported investors poured nearly $25B into equities over the past week, as retail/institutional investors likely went into FOMO mode after the market bottomed in October.So the hammering last week could have stunned these investors?
