FANGs    were among the outperformers, while financials were red over this hour and half period.</p><p>   In the end, growth    outperformed value    on the day.</p><p>   Regarding the Fed, Frances Donald, Global Chief Economist at Manulife Investment Management said, \"The dot plot is now showing two rate hikes by 2023. That's enough of a hawkish surprise for the bond market and its getting all of the attention.\"</p><p>   Donald added, \"What's interesting here is that the Federal Reserve has increased its estimate of when the first rate hikes will come but not materially changed its 2022 and 2023 projections for growth and inflation. What that tells us is that while the outlook hasn't dramatically changed it seems that the Fed's confidence in returning to a normal environment has.\"</p><p>   Here is Wednesday's closing snapshot:</p><p>   (Terence Gabriel, Sinéad Carew)</p><p>   *****  </p><p>   S&amp;P 500 RED AFTER FED (1424 EDT/1824 GMT)</p><p>   The S&amp;P 500    initially dove with the release of the FOMC Meeting statement.</p><p>   This after The Federal Reserve brought forward its projections for the first post-pandemic interest rate hikes into 2023, citing an improved health situation and dropping a longstanding reference that the crisis was weighing on the economy.      </p><p>   The SPX has snapped back off its low some, but remains down for the day. </p><p>   Nearly all major S&amp;P 500 sectors are red on the day. Financials    are slightly positive, and are the only sector to rally since just prior to the 2 PM EDT release time. Tech    is the weakest group over this short period.</p><p>   With this, the dollar    has strengthened, while spot gold    has dipped. The U.S. 10-Year Treasury yield</p><p>  has popped up to around 1.54% from around 1.49%. </p><p>   Regarding the Fed Statement, Ryan Detrick, Senior Market Strategist at LPL Financial Research said, \"There was a big jump in (the Fed’s) inflation expectations, a point above March projections, and with the likelihood of first rate hike now in 2023, there was a knee jerk reaction and the market is trying to digest it.\"</p><p>   Detrick added that he thought the market was expecting this, and is having typical Fed day volatility.</p><p>   \"It’s like you get all worked up and excited when the Fed has an announcement and the market sleeps on it overnight and go the other way the very next day.\"</p><p>   \"There’s no sign of tapering, but we’ll see with the Q&amp;A.”</p><p>   (Terence Gabriel, Stephen Culp)</p><p>   *****</p><p>   COMPANIES DIVE BACK INTO THE BUYBACK POOL (1240 EDT/1640 GMT)</p><p>   Howard Silverblatt, Senior Index Analyst at S&amp;P Dow Jones Indices, is out this week with some commentary on buybacks.</p><p>   According to Silverblatt, after reining in buybacks in Q2 2020 ($88.7 billion; Q1 2020 was $198.7 billion), more companies ventured back into the buyback market as they sought shares to cover employee options being exercised and stem dilution.</p><p>   He believes this, combined with buying from strong cash-flow companies, drove a buyback rebound in the fourth quarter of 2020 ($130.5 billion; Q3 was $101.8 billion).</p><p>   Silverblatt adds that Q1 2021 accelerated the return ($178.1 billion), as more companies covered their options and did discretionary buying, thereby reducing their share count and aiding EPS.</p><p>   For the remainder of 2021, Silverblatt says strong cash-flow considerations are expected to continue to dominate buyback headlines, but the \"broader market and economic story may be the breadth, expenditures and willingness of the companies, which mostly shut down their programs over COVID uncertainties, to return to buybacks.\"</p><p>   (Terence Gabriel)</p><p>   *****</p><p>   FROM THE FED, WATCH THE DOTS AND THE FORECASTS (1215 EDT/1615 GMT)</p><p>   All eyes are on the U.S. Federal Reserve for signals on how the central bank could begin unwinding its massive bond-buying program.  </p><p>   However, Fed chairman Jerome Powell is unlikely to provide much beyond acknowledgement that policymakers are \"talking about talking about tapering,\" Michael Pearce, senior U.S. economist at Capital Economics told the Reuters Global Markets Forum. </p><p>   Pearce is eyeing the Fed's \"dot plot,\" an indication of when policymakers expect interest rate hikes. </p><p>   \"The first rate hike will probably be bumped forward to 2023 in the median projection, and some of the individual dots could be higher for 2022 and 2023,\" he said. </p><p>   Such revisions will not be a huge surprise, but Pearce says changes to the Fed's unemployment and inflation forecasts will be key. </p><p>   Given recent data, Pearce says inflation forecasts will \"definitely need to rise,\" but if policymakers stick to their belief that inflationary forces are transitory, they could lower core inflation forecasts for 2022. </p><p>   Pearce thinks inflation could be more persistent, noting supply shortages and the possible start to \"a larger upturn in the most cyclical components of (the) consumer price index.\"</p><p>   A bigger question for Pearce is the impact of rising prices on economic activity. He points to June's University of Michigan survey showing consumers are concerned about the prices of homes, vehicles, and durable goods.  </p><p>   If inflation clamps consumer spending, it would likely prompt revisions to otherwise strong forecasts for U.S. economic growth. Currently, Pearce expects gross domestic product for the second quarter at around 10% annualized. </p><p>   \"By the end of the year, I'd expect U.S. GDP to be pretty much back on its pre-Covid trend path, though I suspect the unemployment rate will still be slightly elevated,\" he said.</p><p>   As far as tapering goes, Pearce expects a clearer timeline around August, and a gradual rollback of purchases that takes most of 2022.   </p><p>   (GMF membership link): </p><p>   (Lisa Mattackal)</p><p>   ****</p><p>    CAUTIOUS EUROPEAN CLOSE (1150 EDT/1550 GMT)</p><p>   The banking sector being the top loser, with a 0.8% decline, probably tells you all you need to know about what change investors expect from the Fed and the ECB's policy stance.</p><p>   Yes, not much indeed and easing government bond yields tell us roughly the same story.</p><p>   Anyhow, aside from banking and auto stocks, this session was fairly positive for the pan-European STOXX 600 with a 0.2% gain. We even had an intra day high of 460.3, just a whisker below the 460.5 record set on Monday.</p><p>   One disappointing note perhaps was the IPO of Made.com</p><p>  which lost about 5% on its London debut, another company to fall on its first day of trading in a volatile year for stock market listings.</p><p>   That list comprises Deliveroo and Alphawave but also France's Believe. </p><p>   Overall the market price action was fairly limited, which is understandable before a Fed meeting. </p><p>   \"Markets have been in deep freeze the last few days waiting for tonight’s decision\", wrote Chris Beauchamp at IG. </p><p>   \"Those hoping for a mis-step from the chairman will probably be disappointed – he knows where the questions will focus and will be determined not to be caught on the hop\", he added.</p><p>   (Julien Ponthus) </p><p>   *****</p><p>   TEMPERING THE TASTE FOR TECH (1129 EDT/1529 GMT)</p><p>   LPL Financial Research is out with a note this week in which they say it's time to temper tech.</p><p>   “It’s tough not to like technology given the strong fundamentals and rapid pace of innovation from many tech companies,” explained LPL Equity Strategist Jeffrey Buchbinder. “But we expect cyclical value sectors like financials, industrials, and materials to fare better the rest of the year as the economy gets a reopening jolt.”</p><p>   Indeed, LPL downgraded technology to neutral primarily for the following reasons:</p><p>   First off, the reopening. LPL expects the market’s shift toward reopening beneficiaries vs work-from-home stocks to continue. </p><p>   Secondly, valuations. According to LPL, the P/E for the tech sector based on estimated earnings over the next 12 months, as well as its relative valuation vs the S&amp;P 500   , are both elevated. </p><p>   Additionally, comparing value to growth based on the Russell 1000 style indexes reveals an \"even bigger gap—the Growth Index is trading at a more than 60% premium to the Value Index, the most in 20 years.\" LPL adds that interest rates, which they expect to rise for the rest of 2021, might take a bite out of richly valued growth stocks.</p><p>   Finally, LPL says that although the sector is near its all-time high, its relative performance versus the S&amp;P 500 Index peaked last September and has been drifting sideways to lower since then, pointing them to a neutral sector view.</p><p>   LPL emphasizes that their downgrade doesn’t in any way mean they plan to abandon tech completely, saying that \"we believe the sector likely moves higher in the second half of the year, along with the broad market, but we just see better opportunities for outperformance in cyclical value stocks.\"</p><p>   (Terence Gabriel)</p><p>   *****</p><p>   COOKING WITH GAS: HOT INFLATION AFFECTS IMPORTS, HOUSING STARTS (1045 EDT/1445 GMT)</p><p>   Data released on Wednesday provided plenty of fodder for those who are fretting over rising prices and looking to the U.S. Federal Reserve, which concludes its two-day monetary policy meeting this afternoon, for any change in nuance regarding its assertion that the current wave is temporary.</p><p>   The cost of goods imported to the United States    increased by 1.1% in May according to the Labor Department, hotter than the 0.8% consensus and an acceleration from the previous month.  </p><p>   The increase was largely driven by gasoline and industrial supplies, further evidence that supply chain bottlenecks in the face of a demand boom are sending prices skyward.</p><p>   Year-over-year, import prices heated up to a scalding 11.3%, the highest in nearly a decade and soaring well beyond other major indicators, which are all running at or above the Fed's average annual 2% inflation target.</p><p>   But Mahir Rasheed, U.S. economist at Oxford Economics (OE), agrees with the Fed's assurances.</p><p>   \"As supply-side constraints gradually dissipate and the influence of base effects gradually fades in the coming months, we expect the pace of import price inflation to moderate in the second half of the year,\" Rasheed writes.</p><p>   Here's how those indicators stack up against the central bank's favorite inflation yardstick, core PCE:</p><p>   A report from the Commerce Department showed groundbreaking on new American homes    increased by 3.6% last month to 1.572 million units at a seasonally adjusted annualized rate (SAAR). This was cold comfort considering it, was a smaller-than-expected partial rebound from April's stark 12.1% plunge.  </p><p>   A suburban homebuying frenzy unleashed by social distancing restrictions has sent inventories to record lows, supporting the homebuilding sector. But that same supply crunch has touched building materials, launching lumber prices to the moon and hampering new construction.</p><p>   Building permits   , <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> of the more forward-looking housing indicators, dropped by 3% to 1.682 million units SAAR, steeper than expected and an acceleration from the 1.3% drop the month prior. </p><p>   It's worth pointing out, however, that building permits remain well above pre-COVID levels.</p><p>   \"We think construction has some way further to fall, though the shortage of inventory means that activity will remain higher than implied by the mortgage applications data for some time yet,\" says Ian Shepherdson, chief economist at Pantheon Macroeconomics.</p><p>   Speaking of which, dropping interest rates goosed demand for home loans by 4.2% last week, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA).</p><p>   A 4-basis-point drop in the average 30-year fixed contract rate    - to 3.11% from 3.15% - helped boost applications for refi    and purchase loans</p><p>  by 6% and 2%, respectively.</p><p>   The increase was also likely attributable, in part, to a rebound from the Memorial Day holiday effect.</p><p>   \"Strong demand and the recent decline in mortgage rates, which are down more than 25 basis points since early April, should support some homebuying activity,\" says Nancy Vanden Houten, lead economist at Oxford Economics. \"But limited supply and sharply higher home prices still present considerable headwinds.\"</p><p>   U.S. stock indexes are mixed ahead of the FOMC statement expected at 2pm EDT at the conclusion of its two-day monetary policy meeting.</p><p>   (Stephen Culp)</p><p>   *****</p><p>   MEME STOCKS LOSING STEAM, QUAD WITCHING COULD MAKE IT WORSE (0930 EDT/1330 GMT)</p><p>   A basket tracking some of the most popular meme stocks is down by 17% over the past week, analysts at Vanda Research said.</p><p>   Indeed, such stocks as AMC Entertainment Holdings Inc</p><p> , GameStop Corp   , Clover Health Investments Corp</p><p>  and Workhorse Group    are all under pressure in the early throes of Wednesday's regular session after a wild ride over the past few weeks.  </p><p>   The current meme stock bubble has been running for three weeks now, just about the same time as the last bubble in January. With retail flows surpassing the peak of Q1 and given the amount of risk embedded in these investments, retail investors will rush to the exit unless there's an immediate rally, Vanda Researchers said.</p><p>   This week's quadruple witching event could make things even more complicated for meme stocks. In the last couple of days open interest on call options on meme stocks has been declining as traders take profits before the expiry. In response, market makers are unwinding their long-stock hedges, creating a negative feedback loop, analysts added.</p><p>   Quadruple witching refers to the simultaneous expiration of single-stock options, index options, single-stock futures and index futures, which happens on the third Friday in March, June, September and December.</p><p>   \"All manias run out of energy at some point and this is no different,\" said Art Hogan, chief market strategist at National Securities in New York.</p><p>   \"It hasn't completely disappeared but overall volumes are starting to peter out and that's just the natural course of events.\"  </p><p>    (Medha Singh)</p><p>   *****</p><p>   NASDAQ VS COMMODITIES: TIME FOR TECH TO STEP UP? (0900 EDT/1300 GMT)</p><p>   The tech-laden Nasdaq Composite    relative to the Refinitiv/CoreCommodity CRB index    appears to once again be at an important juncture on the charts.  </p><p>   The Nasdaq/CRB ratio, on a weekly basis, hit a record high of 80.54 in early November of last year. Since then, however, the Nasdaq has underperformed \"stuff.\" In fact, the ratio hit a 14-month low in early June:</p><p>   Now nearly 67, the ratio is flirting with what appears to be significant support in the form of a log-scale trend line from its 2011 trough, now around 65.65, as well as the 100-week moving average <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/WMA.AU\">$(WMA.AU)$</a>, now around 64.40.</p><p>   The ratio did suffer a <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a>-week closing violation of the support line in late 2018. However, with the market's December bottom that year, it quickly reversed to the upside without breaking the 100-WMA. The trendline then contained weakness in  2019, and early 2020.</p><p>   Of note, the ratio has been on a record run vs its 100-WMA. In fact, it is on pace for its 499th straight weekly close above this long-term moving average.

He points to June's University of Michigan survey showing consumers are concerned about the prices of homes, vehicles, and durable goods.  </p><p>   If inflation clamps consumer spending, it would likely prompt revisions to otherwise strong forecasts for U.S. economic growth. Currently, Pearce expects gross domestic product for the second quarter at around 10% annualized. </p><p>   \"By the end of the year, I'd expect U.S. GDP to be pretty much back on its pre-Covid trend path, though I suspect the unemployment rate will still be slightly elevated,\" he said.</p><p>   As far as tapering goes, Pearce expects a clearer timeline around August, and a gradual rollback of purchases that takes most of 2022.   </p><p>   (GMF membership link): </p><p>   (Lisa Mattackal)</p><p>   ****</p><p>    CAUTIOUS EUROPEAN CLOSE (1150 EDT/1550 GMT)</p><p>   The banking sector being the top loser, with a 0.8% decline, probably tells you all you need to know about what change investors expect from the Fed and the ECB's policy stance.</p><p>   Yes, not much indeed and easing government bond yields tell us roughly the same story.</p><p>   Anyhow, aside from banking and auto stocks, this session was fairly positive for the pan-European STOXX 600 with a 0.2% gain.

According to Silverblatt, after reining in buybacks in Q2 2020 ($88.7 billion; Q1 2020 was $198.7 billion), more companies ventured back into the buyback market as they sought shares to cover employee options being exercised and stem dilution.   He believes this, combined with buying from strong cash-flow companies, drove a buyback rebound in the fourth quarter of 2020 ($130.5 billion; Q3 was $101.8 billion).   Silverblatt adds that Q1 2021 accelerated the return ($178.1 billion), as more companies covered their options and did discretionary buying, thereby reducing their share count and aiding EPS.   For the remainder of 2021, Silverblatt says strong cash-flow considerations are expected to continue to dominate buyback headlines, but the \"broader market and economic story may be the breadth, expenditures and willingness of the companies, which mostly shut down their programs over COVID uncertainties, to return to buybacks.\"   (Terence Gabriel)   *****   FROM THE FED, WATCH THE DOTS AND THE FORECASTS (1215 EDT/1615 GMT)   All eyes are on the U.S. Federal Reserve for signals on how the central bank could begin unwinding its massive bond-buying program.     However, Fed chairman Jerome Powell is unlikely to provide much beyond acknowledgement that policymakers are \"talking about talking about tapering,\" Michael Pearce, senior U.S. economist at Capital Economics told the Reuters Global Markets Forum.    Pearce is eyeing the Fed's \"dot plot,\" an indication of when policymakers expect interest rate hikes.    \"The first rate hike will probably be bumped forward to 2023 in the median projection, and some of the individual dots could be higher for 2022 and 2023,\" he said.    Such revisions will not be a huge surprise, but Pearce says changes to the Fed's unemployment and inflation forecasts will be key.    Given recent data, Pearce says inflation forecasts will \"definitely need to rise,\" but if policymakers stick to their belief that inflationary forces are transitory, they could lower core inflation forecasts for 2022.    Pearce thinks inflation could be more persistent, noting supply shortages and the possible start to \"a larger upturn in the most cyclical components of (the) consumer price index.\"   A bigger question for Pearce is the impact of rising prices on economic activity. He points to June's University of Michigan survey showing consumers are concerned about the prices of homes, vehicles, and durable goods.     If inflation clamps consumer spending, it would likely prompt revisions to otherwise strong forecasts for U.S. economic growth. Currently, Pearce expects gross domestic product for the second quarter at around 10% annualized.    \"By the end of the year, I'd expect U.S. GDP to be pretty much back on its pre-Covid trend path, though I suspect the unemployment rate will still be slightly elevated,\" he said.   As far as tapering goes, Pearce expects a clearer timeline around August, and a gradual rollback of purchases that takes most of 2022.      (GMF membership link):    (Lisa Mattackal)   ****    CAUTIOUS EUROPEAN CLOSE (1150 EDT/1550 GMT)   The banking sector being the top loser, with a 0.8% decline, probably tells you all you need to know about what change investors expect from the Fed and the ECB's policy stance.   Yes, not much indeed and easing government bond yields tell us roughly the same story.   Anyhow, aside from banking and auto stocks, this session was fairly positive for the pan-European STOXX 600 with a 0.2% gain. We even had an intra day high of 460.3, just a whisker below the 460.5 record set on Monday.   One disappointing note perhaps was the IPO of Made.com  which lost about 5% on its London debut, another company to fall on its first day of trading in a volatile year for stock market listings.   That list comprises Deliveroo and Alphawave but also France's Believe.    Overall the market price action was fairly limited, which is understandable before a Fed meeting.    \"Markets have been in deep freeze the last few days waiting for tonight’s decision\", wrote Chris Beauchamp at IG.    \"Those hoping for a mis-step from the chairman will probably be disappointed – he knows where the questions will focus and will be determined not to be caught on the hop\", he added.   (Julien Ponthus)    *****   TEMPERING THE TASTE FOR TECH (1129 EDT/1529 GMT)   LPL Financial Research is out with a note this week in which they say it's time to temper tech.   “It’s tough not to like technology given the strong fundamentals and rapid pace of innovation from many tech companies,” explained LPL Equity Strategist Jeffrey Buchbinder. “But we expect cyclical value sectors like financials, industrials, and materials to fare better the rest of the year as the economy gets a reopening jolt.”   Indeed, LPL downgraded technology to neutral primarily for the following reasons:   First off, the reopening. LPL expects the market’s shift toward reopening beneficiaries vs work-from-home stocks to continue.    Secondly, valuations. According to LPL, the P/E for the tech sector based on estimated earnings over the next 12 months, as well as its relative valuation vs the S&P 500   , are both elevated.    Additionally, comparing value to growth based on the Russell 1000 style indexes reveals an \"even bigger gap—the Growth Index is trading at a more than 60% premium to the Value Index, the most in 20 years.\" LPL adds that interest rates, which they expect to rise for the rest of 2021, might take a bite out of richly valued growth stocks.   Finally, LPL says that although the sector is near its all-time high, its relative performance versus the S&P 500 Index peaked last September and has been drifting sideways to lower since then, pointing them to a neutral sector view.   LPL emphasizes that their downgrade doesn’t in any way mean they plan to abandon tech completely, saying that \"we believe the sector likely moves higher in the second half of the year, along with the broad market, but we just see better opportunities for outperformance in cyclical value stocks.\"   (Terence Gabriel)   *****   COOKING WITH GAS: HOT INFLATION AFFECTS IMPORTS, HOUSING STARTS (1045 EDT/1445 GMT)   Data released on Wednesday provided plenty of fodder for those who are fretting over rising prices and looking to the U.S. Federal Reserve, which concludes its two-day monetary policy meeting this afternoon, for any change in nuance regarding its assertion that the current wave is temporary.   The cost of goods imported to the United States    increased by 1.1% in May according to the Labor Department, hotter than the 0.8% consensus and an acceleration from the previous month.     The increase was largely driven by gasoline and industrial supplies, further evidence that supply chain bottlenecks in the face of a demand boom are sending prices skyward.   Year-over-year, import prices heated up to a scalding 11.3%, the highest in nearly a decade and soaring well beyond other major indicators, which are all running at or above the Fed's average annual 2% inflation target.   But Mahir Rasheed, U.S. economist at Oxford Economics (OE), agrees with the Fed's assurances.   \"As supply-side constraints gradually dissipate and the influence of base effects gradually fades in the coming months, we expect the pace of import price inflation to moderate in the second half of the year,\" Rasheed writes.   Here's how those indicators stack up against the central bank's favorite inflation yardstick, core PCE:   A report from the Commerce Department showed groundbreaking on new American homes    increased by 3.6% last month to 1.572 million units at a seasonally adjusted annualized rate (SAAR). This was cold comfort considering it, was a smaller-than-expected partial rebound from April's stark 12.1% plunge.     A suburban homebuying frenzy unleashed by social distancing restrictions has sent inventories to record lows, supporting the homebuilding sector. But that same supply crunch has touched building materials, launching lumber prices to the moon and hampering new construction.   Building permits   , one of the more forward-looking housing indicators, dropped by 3% to 1.682 million units SAAR, steeper than expected and an acceleration from the 1.3% drop the month prior.    It's worth pointing out, however, that building permits remain well above pre-COVID levels.   \"We think construction has some way further to fall, though the shortage of inventory means that activity will remain higher than implied by the mortgage applications data for some time yet,\" says Ian Shepherdson, chief economist at Pantheon Macroeconomics.   Speaking of which, dropping interest rates goosed demand for home loans by 4.2% last week, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA).   A 4-basis-point drop in the average 30-year fixed contract rate    - to 3.11% from 3.15% - helped boost applications for refi    and purchase loans  by 6% and 2%, respectively.   The increase was also likely attributable, in part, to a rebound from the Memorial Day holiday effect.   \"Strong demand and the recent decline in mortgage rates, which are down more than 25 basis points since early April, should support some homebuying activity,\" says Nancy Vanden Houten, lead economist at Oxford Economics. \"But limited supply and sharply higher home prices still present considerable headwinds.\"   U.S. stock indexes are mixed ahead of the FOMC statement expected at 2pm EDT at the conclusion of its two-day monetary policy meeting.   (Stephen Culp)   *****   MEME STOCKS LOSING STEAM, QUAD WITCHING COULD MAKE IT WORSE (0930 EDT/1330 GMT)   A basket tracking some of the most popular meme stocks is down by 17% over the past week, analysts at Vanda Research said.   Indeed, such stocks as AMC Entertainment Holdings Inc , GameStop Corp   , Clover Health Investments Corp  and Workhorse Group    are all under pressure in the early throes of Wednesday's regular session after a wild ride over the past few weeks.     The current meme stock bubble has been running for three weeks now, just about the same time as the last bubble in January. With retail flows surpassing the peak of Q1 and given the amount of risk embedded in these investments, retail investors will rush to the exit unless there's an immediate rally, Vanda Researchers said.   This week's quadruple witching event could make things even more complicated for meme stocks. In the last couple of days open interest on call options on meme stocks has been declining as traders take profits before the expiry. In response, market makers are unwinding their long-stock hedges, creating a negative feedback loop, analysts added.   Quadruple witching refers to the simultaneous expiration of single-stock options, index options, single-stock futures and index futures, which happens on the third Friday in March, June, September and December.   \"All manias run out of energy at some point and this is no different,\" said Art Hogan, chief market strategist at National Securities in New York.   \"It hasn't completely disappeared but overall volumes are starting to peter out and that's just the natural course of events.\"      (Medha Singh)   *****   NASDAQ VS COMMODITIES: TIME FOR TECH TO STEP UP? (0900 EDT/1300 GMT)   The tech-laden Nasdaq Composite    relative to the Refinitiv/CoreCommodity CRB index    appears to once again be at an important juncture on the charts.     The Nasdaq/CRB ratio, on a weekly basis, hit a record high of 80.54 in early November of last year. Since then, however, the Nasdaq has underperformed \"stuff.\" In fact, the ratio hit a 14-month low in early June:   Now nearly 67, the ratio is flirting with what appears to be significant support in the form of a log-scale trend line from its 2011 trough, now around 65.65, as well as the 100-week moving average $(WMA.AU)$, now around 64.40.   The ratio did suffer a one-week closing violation of the support line in late 2018. However, with the market's December bottom that year, it quickly reversed to the upside without breaking the 100-WMA. The trendline then contained weakness in  2019, and early 2020.   Of note, the ratio has been on a record run vs its 100-WMA. In fact, it is on pace for its 499th straight weekly close above this long-term moving average. This current run above the 100-WMA dwarfs the ratio's 155-week streak that lasted into the Y2K tech bubble top.   Thus, in the face of this week's event risks in the form of today's FOMC results  , and Friday's quadruple witching  , it may now be time for tech to once again step up, in order to underpin a renewed Nasdaq advance relative to commodities.      A ratio weekly close below support can add credence to the view that a sea change in trend is underway. A deeper decline to threaten the March 2000 high, at 28.9, could see the ratio lose more than half its value from current levels.

Intel also recently announced plans to become a “foundry,” or a company that manufactures microchips for other companies.\nGelsinger said Intel planned to announce an additional “mega fab” in the U.S. or Europe before the end of the year.\nGelsinger was appearing at a CNBC panel alongside Qualcomm CEO Cristiano Amon. Both started leading their companies earlier this year.\nWhile the companies are rivals, the CEOs downplayed the competition, and suggested the two chipmakers could end up partnering in areas where they don’t overlap. Qualcomm makes (among other things) chips that connect to 5G networks, while Intel mainly builds central processing units (CPUs) that provide base computing power.\n“You know, we are the unquestioned compute leader, and Qualcomm’s the unquestioned comms leader. Compute meets comms. Right, a lot of new use cases,” Gelsinger said.\nAmon said that he believed that Intel’s foundry plan could be an advantage for Qualcomm, which uses outside foundries to make its chips.\n“There’s a lot of opportunities for the companies to cooperate. Look, we look at Intel and Qualcomm at true technology companies in the United States, we do a lot of advanced and fundamental research to push the industry forward,” Amon said.\nThe two companies do share some strategic concerns. They are both likely to be boosted by a package included in a technology bill currently in the U.S. House of Representatives that would provide $52 billion to fund semiconductor research, design and manufacturing.\n“We’re also very happy about building a much more resilient supply chain, with the on-shoring of semiconductor manufacturing, I think that’s also very important,” Amon said. “You need investment at this order of magnitude for that to happen.”\nBoth companies are also closely watching rival Nvidia’s purchase of Arm from SoftBank for $40 billion. Arm technology is especially important for Qualcomm, because it is essential for designing the kind of low-power microprocessors smartphones use.\nThe deal is also making chip companies nervous that they would need to license essential intellectual property from a competitor, and is facing regulatory challenges in Europe. Currently, Arm doesn’t make any full chips — it just designs underlying technology. On Monday, an Arm spokesperson told CNBC that the company is “extremely confident” that the deal will be approved.\nOver the weekend,Amon told a U.K. newspaper that if the transaction was blocked or Arm otherwise stayed independent, Qualcomm would be interested in investing in Arm.\nWhen asked about Amon’s comment, Gelsinger said: “We are on record saying we’re concerned about the Nvidia-Arm acquisition. And if there were other approaches possible, we’d definitely be interested in understanding them.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":414,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":161975110,"gmtCreate":1623903138930,"gmtModify":1703823104112,"author":{"id":"3574875111869274","authorId":"3574875111869274","name":"HengHeng70","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dcfaef6a1ec90952d9ee5964e8b97937","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574875111869274","authorIdStr":"3574875111869274"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Cool!","listText":"Cool!","text":"Cool!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/161975110","repostId":"2143179480","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2143179480","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1623850654,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2143179480?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-16 21:37","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 historic precedents show tech stocks will go higher","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2143179480","media":"Yahoo Finance","summary":"After a strong year in technology (Nasdaq Composite up +43.6% in 2020), it is perfectly normal to se","content":"<p>After a strong year in technology (Nasdaq Composite up +43.6% in 2020), it is perfectly normal to see the market consolidate and correct those large gains.

That year, the Nasdaq Composite was up +40% and the rally continued into May 1996.

Last year’s gain carried into this year before peaking in February. Since then, the index has corrected for approximately four months, and is now looking to make another move higher. We still have to get through a few events in June such as the Fed meeting this week, the annual Russell 2000 rebalancing on June 25, and normal end of the quarter portfolio adjustments. There could be some volatility around these events, but eventually, it looks like technology is ready for the next leg higher.

Fed Chair Powell has made it perfectly clear that he will take his time with this process, and I don’t see anything being done until early 2022.

Coming out of these corrections, it is common to see another leg higher in the market, and there are three historical precedents that demonstrate that.\nYou might be thinking “What correction? The S&P 500 closed at an all-time high last week.” Please keep in mind I’m referring to growth stocks, which have clearly been in a correction since early February of this year.\nThe first example is 1995. That year, the Nasdaq Composite was up +40% and the rally continued into May 1996. After correcting close to 20%, the next move higher began in September 1996, and ultimately accelerated into the great bull market of the late 1990s.\nChart is provided by MarketSmith\nIn 2003, the Nasdaq Composite gained +50% and eventually peaked in January 2004. After consolidating for seven months, the next leg up began in September 2004. According toMike Cintolo, Chief Analyst at Cabot Growth Investor, “The upmove after that didn’t get far into new high ground, but it was an excellent stretch. That’s when Apple (AAPL) and Google (GOOG,GOOGL) really began their mega-runs.”\nChart is provided by MarketSmith\nFinally, in 2009, the Nasdaq Composite rose +44% and continued into April 2010. After a four-month correction, the index resumed its advance in September 2010, and then gained over +30% into early 2011. More importantly, for growth stock traders, many stocks such as Lululemon (LULU) and Chipotle Mexican Grill (CMG) saw triple-digit gains during that run.\nChart is provided by MarketSmith\nThese three historical precedents provide a decent blueprint for today’s Nasdaq Composite. Last year’s gain carried into this year before peaking in February. Since then, the index has corrected for approximately four months, and is now looking to make another move higher. We still have to get through a few events in June such as the Fed meeting this week, the annual Russell 2000 rebalancing on June 25, and normal end of the quarter portfolio adjustments. There could be some volatility around these events, but eventually, it looks like technology is ready for the next leg higher. It could begin in early July as the market starts to anticipate the next round of earnings reports.\nRegarding the upcoming Fed meeting, it seems like market participants have had the same fears before every recent meeting. They are worried the Fed will hint at “tapering” or slowing down their monthly bond purchases, and eventually map out a course for raising interest rates. Fed Chair Powell has made it perfectly clear that he will take his time with this process, and I don’t see anything being done until early 2022. Many people might disagree with the Fed’s actions because several economic measures are back to pre-pandemic levels; however, the Fed would rather be late in normalizing rates than early. Don’t argue with it — take advantage of this equity friendly environment.\nIf there’s an unforeseen event that causes the market to stall over the next few months, it’s possible the next leg higher could be delayed until the fourth quarter.

Copper price has fallen more than 10% from its record high, dipping into correction territory on Tuesday.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":218,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":169688510,"gmtCreate":1623832888630,"gmtModify":1703820819780,"author":{"id":"3574875111869274","authorId":"3574875111869274","name":"HengHeng70","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dcfaef6a1ec90952d9ee5964e8b97937","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574875111869274","authorIdStr":"3574875111869274"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Oh no.","listText":"Oh no.","text":"Oh no.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/169688510","repostId":"1138070155","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1138070155","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1623826083,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1138070155?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-16 14:48","market":"us","language":"en","title":"U.K. Inflation Surges to 2.1% Unexpectedly Passing BOE Goal","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1138070155","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"U.K. inflation surged unexpectedly past the Bank of England’s target for the first time in almost tw","content":"<p>U.K. inflation surged unexpectedly past the Bank of England’s target for the first time in almost two years, an increase that will add to speculation about when monetary policy could be tightened.Consumer prices rose 2.1% from a year earlier, the highest since July 2019, the Office for National Statistics said Wednesday.

So I don’t think we will be able to see open and free travel in the region, in particular, any time soon,” said the minister who also co-chairs Singapore’s coronavirus task force.\nSingapore is a Southeast Asian city-state with no domestic air travel market. International travel came to a sudden halt in the past year due to the pandemic, and that’s hurt Singapore’s aviation and tourism sectors — two major contributors to economic growth.\nWong said the Singapore government continues to talk with its counterparts in the region about setting up “safe travel lanes.” He didn’t name the places Singapore is in talks.\n“Perhaps amongst the countries with low and stable infections, we may have some travel arrangements. Perhaps for vaccinated travelers, there may be some benefits in terms of shorter quarantine times,” said the minister.\n“But for the most part ... all of that is not going to add up to what we used to have pre-Covid. So air travel, I’m afraid, will take some time to recover,” Wong added.\n\nSingapore has an air travel bubble agreement with Hong Kong that will allowtravelers to skip quarantine. But the launch of the scheme has been postponed twice — first from November and then again in May — due to renewed Covid outbreaks in either cities.\nLast week, the prime ministers of Singapore and Australia said they will work toward an air travel bubble arrangement between the two countries.\nSingapore’s Covid situation\nAsia, where the coronavirus was first detected, saw a spike in infections in recent months. Places ranging from developing nations to more developed economies including Japan and Taiwan had a resurgence in cases.\nSingapore also experienced a renewed rise in cases last month after previous successes in containing the outbreak — which led the government to tighten social-distancing measures.\nWong said those measures have been working and that allows the country to gradually ease restrictions again. But he warned that the situation could be unpredictable.\n“You know, with this virus, you can never tell what happens in the next few days, because … there will always be surprises. It’s a very tricky virus. Each time you think you have it under control, it pops up in a new direction,” said Wong.\nThe minister reiterated the government’s goal of having at least 50% of the population fully vaccinated by August.\nSingapore appears on track to meet that goal. Around 2.7 million people — or 47% of the country’s population — have received at least the first dose of Covid vaccine as of Monday, according to the latest health ministry data.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":459,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":169616784,"gmtCreate":1623832486548,"gmtModify":1703820806956,"author":{"id":"3574875111869274","authorId":"3574875111869274","name":"HengHeng70","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dcfaef6a1ec90952d9ee5964e8b97937","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574875111869274","authorIdStr":"3574875111869274"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"The risk is low.&nbsp;","listText":"The risk is low.&nbsp;","text":"The risk is low.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/169616784","repostId":"2143530687","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2143530687","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1623829500,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2143530687?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-16 15:45","market":"us","language":"en","title":"How Worrisome Are Heart Issues Reported With Pfizer's and Moderna's COVID Vaccines?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2143530687","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"It's way too early to worry.","content":"<p>Nearly 170 million Americans have received the COVID-19 vaccine developed by <b>Pfizer</b> (NYSE:PFE) and <b>BioNTech</b> (NASDAQ:BNTX).

Most adverse events reported in VAERS aren't serious.</p> \n<p>However, the CDC noticed that higher numbers of myocarditis (inflammation of the middle layer of the heart wall) and pericarditis (inflammation of the pericardium tissue that surrounds the heart) were being reported for young men than would be expected based on the number of vaccines administered. These issues were especially notable after the second dose of the mRNA vaccines.</p> \n<p>As of May 31, 372 cases of myocarditis or pericarditis had been reported in VAERS after the second dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine. Another 201 cases of heart inflammation issues had been reported after the second dose of Moderna's vaccine. Nearly 80% of these reported cases occurred in men, with a median age of 24.</p> \n<p>The potential issues aren't limited to the United States. Earlier this month, Israel's Health Ministry announced that there was a \"probable link\" between heart inflammation issues observed primarily in young men and receiving the second dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine.</p> \n<h2>Reason to worry?</h2> \n<p>The CDC hasn't established any causal link between either of the mRNA vaccines and heart inflammation issues occurring in young men at this point. Moderna issued a public statement last week that confirmed it hasn't found any causal association between its vaccine and heart inflammation \"after carefully reviewing the safety data to date.\"</p> \n<p>The number of heart inflammation issues reported thus far, while higher than expected, is still really low overall. The CDC specifically stated that \"these reports are rare, given the number of vaccine doses administered.\"</p> \n<p>It's also important to note that most individuals affected by heart inflammation issues were treated successfully. Indeed, the CDC said, \"Most patients who received care responded well to medicine and rest and quickly felt better.\"</p> \n<p>Based on what is known now, there's no reason for individuals receiving the Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna COVID-19 vaccines to worry. Finding rare side effects with a vaccine or a drug is launched occurs frequently. Usually, the actions taken include revising guidelines for evaluating the benefit-risk balance for affected groups and the follow-up monitoring for these groups.</p> \n<p>That could be what the CDC advisory panel that's scheduled to meet later this week will do after examining the available data. It's also possible that the panel will need more data before it makes any recommendations.</p> \n<h2>Minimal movement</h2> \n<p>Should investors worry about what all of this might mean for Pfizer, BioNTech, and/or Moderna? No. Most investors haven't been worried, as evidenced by the minimal movement of the drug stocks after the initial CDC advisory committee meeting last week where the heart inflammation issues were discussed.</p> \n<p>Granted, it's possible that a clear link between the mRNA vaccines and heart inflammation issues in young men could be established. Even if that happens, though, the issues are rare enough that the number of doses administered of these vaccines probably wouldn't be impacted very much.</p> \n<p>The emergence of new coronavirus strains makes it far more likely that more mRNA vaccine doses will be needed in the future. In the big scheme of things, Pfizer's and Moderna's COVID-19 vaccines are providing a lot more reasons for celebration than for concern.</p>","source":"fool_stock","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>How Worrisome Are Heart Issues Reported With Pfizer's and Moderna's COVID Vaccines?</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\">\nHow Worrisome Are Heart Issues Reported With Pfizer's and Moderna's COVID Vaccines?\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-16 15:45 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/06/15/how-worrisome-are-heart-issues-reported-with-pfize/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Nearly 170 million Americans have received the COVID-19 vaccine developed by Pfizer (NYSE:PFE) and BioNTech (NASDAQ:BNTX).

Kyriakides will urge ministers to take the threat of more contagious variants seriously, according to an official familiar with the matter.\nStill, the number of infections and hospitalizations in the EU keeps falling over the past nine weeks, and with the vaccine rollout accelerating, the EU’s tourism-dependent economies are eager to restore travel and normalcy, ahead of this summer’s season.\nEU leaders will discuss the epidemiological situation when they meet in Brussels next week, pledging a “full return to free movement as soon as the public health situation allows,” according to a draft of their joint statement seen by Bloomberg.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":115,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":160489920,"gmtCreate":1623804287560,"gmtModify":1703819844592,"author":{"id":"3574875111869274","authorId":"3574875111869274","name":"HengHeng70","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dcfaef6a1ec90952d9ee5964e8b97937","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574875111869274","authorIdStr":"3574875111869274"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/160489920","repostId":"2143750470","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2143750470","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1623777902,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2143750470?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-16 01:25","market":"us","language":"en","title":"LIVE MARKETS-EVs and SPACs","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2143750470","media":"Reuters","summary":"* Major U.S. stock indexes decline, though Transports green   * Real estate weakest major S&P sector","content":"<html><body><p>* Major U.S. stock indexes decline, though Transports green</p><p>   * Real estate weakest major S&amp;P sector; energy leads gainers</p><p>   * Dollar ~flat; gold off, crude up; bitcoin down slightly</p><p>   * U.S. 10-Year Treasury yield ~1.50%</p><p>    June 15 - Welcome to the home for real-time coverage of markets brought to you by Reuters reporters.

line. </p><p>   Industrial output    unexpectedly gained steam in May according to the Federal Reserve, rising 0.8% versus the 0.6% consensus, although April's gain was sharply reduced to a paltry 0.1%.  </p><p>   The growth was largely attributable to a bounce-back in automobile production, which nonetheless remains hobbled by a global microchip drought.</p><p>   \"Looking ahead, hearty goods demand, rising business investment, and revitalizing external activity will keep industrial production on a solid expansionary path,\" writes Oren Klachkin, lead U.S. economist at Oxford Economics. \"Roadblocks to stronger production from supply chain and hiring challenges will start to be removed in the latter half of 2021, supporting strong activity.\"</p><p>   Capacity utilization   , a barometer of economic slack, showed better-than-expected improvement, gaining 60 basis points to 75.2%, closing in on the pre-pandemic 76.3%.</p><p>   A report from the Commerce Department showed goods held in the store rooms of U.S. businesses    shrank by 0.2% in April, more than analysts anticipated.  </p><p>   It was the first monthly decline since last July.</p><p>   But retail inventories, excluding motor vehicles, rose by 0.6%, an acceleration from March's 0.5% increase, yet another indication that car manufacturers remain constrained by the afore-mentioned chip

months suggests that drag could carry on through the current quarter.</p><p>   \"Labor constraints, shipping delays, and high input costs will limit inventory gains,\" Klachkin adds. \"But we look for those challenges to ease as better health conditions and reopenings bring the supply side of the economy back online.\"</p><p>   And finally our data deluge concludes with news from the erstwhile star of the economic recovery: the housing market.</p><p>   The COVID crisis caused a demand stampede, as homebuyers painted \"suburbs or bust\" on their SUVs and fled the cities in search of elbow room and home office space. </p><p>   That rush drove inventories to record lows, which in turn gave robust support to the homebuilding sector.</p><p>   But heightened demand has also collided with stricken supply chains and a dearth of building materials, launching home prices into orbit and dampening the homebuilding party.</p><p>   The National Association of Homebuilders' (NAHB) Housing Market index   , also known as homebuilder sentiment, has shed 2 points this month to a still-sunny reading of 81.</p><p>   It was the index's lowest level since August of last year.</p><p>   \"Higher costs and declining availability for softwood lumber and other building materials pushed down builder sentiment in June,\" said NAHB chairman Chuck Fowke. \"These higher costs have moved some new

  NEW YORK APARTMENT RENTS POP AS BANKS DIS REMOTE WORK (1045 EDT/1445 GMT</p><p>   Perhaps bankers in the Big Apple didn't get the memo on remote work, or are hearing a different tune than big tech on the West Coast.</p><p>   While all gateway markets are showing signs of recovery in apartment rentals, some are recovering faster than others, with a notable difference between New York and Seattle and San Francisco, according to Yardi Matrix.</p><p>   Apartment rents increased 3.4% on a month-over-month basis in New York in May, well above the other top 30 U.S. metro areas that Yardi tracks in its National Multifamily Report.</p><p>   Seattle and San Francisco rebounded, but only at 0.2% and 0.3% growth month over month, respectively, said Yardi, which researches U.S. commercial real estate.</p><p>   The difference could be due to the type of industries in the three cities and their return-to-work plans, Yardi said.</p><p>   New York banks are requiring employees to return to the office this summer, while tech workers in Seattle and San Francisco are more likely to be able to work on a hybrid or fully remote schedule, Yardi said.</p><p>   James Gorman, chief executive at <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSTLW\">Morgan Stanley</a>   , said Monday that if most employees are not back at the bank's <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MHC.AU\">Manhattan</a> headquarters in September, he will be \"very disappointed.\"  </p><p>   <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">Facebook</a> Inc    said last week it was opening up remote work as an option to all levels of employees across the company, starting on Tuesday, and expects to reopen all its U.S. offices by October.  </p><p>   Alphabet Inc's Google    and Microsoft Corp   , have given employees options to choose their work location and remote work preferences. </p><p>   Multifamily rents rose 2.5% year-over-year in May to almost exactly where rent growth was in March 2020 when the coronavirus pandemic hit, Yardi said.</p><p>   Rents grew $12 in May to $1,428, the largest <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a>-month increase in Yardi's data set history, it said.</p><p>    (Herbert Lash)    </p><p>   *****</p><p>   DATA ROUND ONE: RETAIL SALES, PPI, EMPIRE STATE (1000 EDT/1400 GMT)</p><p>   An onslaught of reports unleashed on Tuesday suggests an economy entering a new phase of recovery from the pandemic recession, with freshly-jabbed consumers leaving their houses to find inflation running hotter than the weather.     </p><p>   Sales at U.S. retailers    fell 1.3% last month according to the Commerce Department, steeper than the anticipated 0.8% drop, reversing April's upwardly-revised 0.9% gain.  </p><p>   In part, the decline reflects consumer demand pivoting back from goods to customer-facing services as more Americans are inoculated and taking advantage of lifting social distancing restrictions. </p><p>   Receipts at bars/restaurants and department stores, for example, jumped by 1.8% and 1.6%, respectively, and gasoline sales rose by 0.7%.</p><p>   On the other hand, sales of home improvement goods plunged by 5.9% and home electronics slid 3.4%.</p><p>   The overall pullback suggests a \"satiated demand for goods\" as \"higher prices weighed on consumers’ buying attitudes,\" writes Gregory Daco, chief U.S. economist at Oxford Economics.  </p><p>   \"While some will interpret this as a sign of wary households,\" Daco adds, the report signals \"ongoing demand rotation as vaccinated consumers splurge on services.</p><p>   Core retail sales, which excludes autos, gasoline, building materials and food services - and corresponds closely with the personal consumption component of GDP - dropped by 0.7%.</p><p>   A report from the Labor Department showed the producer price index (PPI)    - or the prices U.S. goods makers get for their wares at the factory loading dock - rose at a faster pace in May than analysts expected.</p><p>   Monthly headline PPI rose by 0.8%, running hotter than the 0.6% growth projected by economists.</p><p>   On an annual basis, core PPI - which strips out food, energy and trade services - accelerated to 5.3% from April's 4.6% pace.</p><p>   \"Headline, core and core ex-trade services prices are well above the 2% target,\" notes Rubeela Farooqi, chief U.S. economist at High Frequency Economics. \"However, the Fed is expected to continue to view building pressures as transient.\"</p><p>   The graphic below shows how year-over-year core PPI stacks up among other major indicators relative to the Fed's average annual 2% target:</p><p>   The demand U-turn away from goods back to services appears to be showing itself in data from the New York Fed, which showed manufacturing activity in New York State stepped on the brakes in May.</p><p>   The New York Federal Reserve's Empire State index</p><p>  plunged nearly seven points to a reading of 17.4, well below the 23 consensus.</p><p>   An Empire State number above zero signifies increased activity over the previous month.</p><p>   \"Manufacturing is doing well, but activity is no longer accelerating,\" says Ian Shepherdson, chief economist at Pantheon Macroeconomics. </p><p>   But Shepherdson outpoints unfilled orders and prices paid components \"suggests a marginal easing of supply constraints,\" a welcome development amid the ongoing demand/supply imbalance.</p><p>   But Tuesday isn't done with us. Industrial production, inventories and homebuilder sentiment remain on tap. </p><p>   Investors were taking a breather out of the starting gate, with the S&amp;P 500 and the Nasdaq slipping back from Monday's record closing highs.    </p><p>   (Stephen Culp)</p><p>   *****</p><p>   S&amp;P 500: SLEEPWALKING (0900 EDT/1300 GMT)</p><p>   The S&amp;P 500    posted another record close on Monday. While only about halfway into June, that marked its 29th record-high finish so far this year vs 33 for all of 2020.</p><p>   Despite the levitation, SPX action in many ways has grown zombie-like. Monday's range as a percentage of the prior session's close was just 0.51%. With this, nearly half of the 18 smallest daily ranges so far this year, have occurred in the past 13 trading days. For the week, the SPX is on track for its tightest range since September 22, 2017.</p><p>   Meanwhile, volatility close-to-close, on a weekly basis, has contracted to its lowest level since mid-January 2020, or roughly one month ahead of the February 2020 market top:</p><p>   Implied volatility has also recently collapsed. The CBOE Volatility Index    ended last Friday at its lowest level since February 20, 2020, or one day after the SPX's February 19, 2020 peak.</p><p>   Thus, with significant event risks this week in the form of the FOMC Meeting results on Wednesday  , and a quadruple-witching Friday  , the benchmark index appears especially ripe for much more spirited action.</p><p>   It now remains to be seen whether the SPX will soon begin a well-rested sprint, or if it will be shaken from its slumber by something that goes bump in the night.</p><p>   (Terence Gabriel)</p><p>   ***** </p><p>   FOR TUESDAY'S LIVE MARKETS' POSTS PRIOR TO 0900 EDT/1300 GMT - CLICK HERE:  </p><p>    &lt;^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ SPX06152021     Retail sales     Inflation     Empire State     Industrial production     Business inventories     NAHB    </p><p>   ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^&gt;</p><p>(Terence Gabriel is a Reuters market analyst.

You can share your thoughts with us at markets.research@thomsonreuters.com   EVs and SPACs (1320 EDT/1720 GMT)   There were always going to be bumps in the road to mass adoption of electric vehicles. However, after Lordstown Motors Corp    hit a giant pothole in recent days, investors in the next generation of U.S. auto manufacturers are seeking the exit ramp.   The electric truck maker slumped 19% on Monday after disclosing both founder and Chief Executive Steve Burns and Chief Financial Officer Julio Rodriguez were resigning. The news came days after the company warned there was \"substantial doubt\" about its ability to continue as a going concern in the next year due to problems in funding production.     Shares are stabilizing on Tuesday, trading marginally higher at $9.30, but the company's stock is still down nearly 70% since Feb. 11.    Some investors may be more concerned by the fact Lordstown is now below the $10 price which special purpose acquisition companies (SPACs) sell their stock to the public. Lordstown went public last October through a merger with blank-check firm DiamondPeak Holdings Corp.   SPACs have sped into the electric vehicle $(EV)$ market, hoping to hitch their wagon to the next Tesla Inc   . Since the start of 2021, there have been a number of announced mergers: one such deal, for Proterra, just completed and the bus maker started trading on the Nasdaq on Tuesday.   So far, it's not been the debut Proterra and its SPAC backers, ArcLight Clean Transition Corp, would have hoped for. Shares are now down around 4%.     Other SPACs due to merge with EV manufacturers have also been run over by the Lordstown developments. Churchill Capital Corp IV    is down another 5% on Tuesday, taking its losses since Wednesday's close to around 13.5%. Decarbonization Plus Acquisition Corp    is off 1.8% on Tuesday.   Lordstown isn't the first SPAC-backed EV manufacturer to get a puncture either. Nikola Corporation    was initially turbo-charged, trading intraday at nearly $94 within a week of its listing, but then questions were raised about its technology, regulatory investigations began and the founder resigned.   Nikola is down 9.8% on Tuesday at $15.50.   EV aren't likely to be a road to nowhere: a June 3 report from Pew Research Center said 39% of Americans would consider going electric the next time they shop for a car. Meanwhile, companies including Amazon.com Inc    and Fedex Corp  are making huge commitments to electrify their fleets.   Like buying the real thing, investors need to be doing their research on EV manufacturers, so they aren't stuck with a lemon.   (David French)   *****   U.S. DOLLAR OUTLOOK DEPENDS ON FED'S INFLATION VIEW -BOFA (1240 EDT/1640 GMT)   BoFA Securities said in its latest research note on Tuesday that the fate of the U.S. dollar rests on the Federal Reserve, which releases its statement on monetary policy on Wednesday after its two-day meeting.   It noted that the combination of a dovish Fed and higher inflation is negative for the dollar because of negative real rates and the risks to the Fed's inflation credibility.   But \"if the Fed reacts to higher inflation by tightening its policies, the correlation flips and the U.S. dollar will appreciate, at least in the short term,\" BofA said.   Once the dust settles though from the current base effects, the economy runs the risk of inflation ending well above the Fed's flexible average inflation targeting (FAIT), BofA says. That should push the Fed to normalize monetary policy, which should be a positive for the dollar.   \"Inflation expectations remain anchored for now, but this is because the market is already pricing some policy normalization in the next two years; they will not remain anchored if the Fed does not respond to higher inflation,\" the U.S. bank said.   The U.S. dollar index is currently little changed at 90.532 . Over the last two months, the dollar has been down nearly 1%.

Investors are warily watching the Federal Reserve’s policy meeting this week and bracing for another painful “taper tantrum” in emerging markets that led to painful losses . But it may not be as bad this time.</p>\n<p>Fund managers cited a taper tantrum as the second-biggest risk after inflation in a recent survey by Bank of America. Emerging markets felt the brunt of the last taper tantrum, with the MSCI Emerging Markets index falling roughly 10% in four months as investors yanked money out as higher yields in the U.S. offered them alternatives in 2013. That added pressure to emerging market countries, exacerbating precarious fiscal positions in countries reliant on foreign funding.</p>\n<p>Many emerging market countries have better fiscal positions and stronger reserves to deal this time to deal with the fallout from another Fed taper. Increased demand for commodities should also help insulate non-Asian markets from disruptive outflows, giving policy makers more room to maneuver, according to Gavkeal Research analysts Udith Sikand and Vincent Tsui.</p>\n<p>The duo expects a less extreme reaction in emerging markets, writing in a note this month that the Fed may also be more attuned to the fragility of the global backdrop and careful to avoid sparking a panic.</p>\n<p>Plus, U.S. real yields are already inching up, which could mean any further rise in yields on the back of a Fed tapering could be smaller. As a result, the analysts think several emerging markets could be less vulnerable this time around and even outperform.</p>\n<p>Of course, if a Fed taper triggers the type of outflows seen last time from emerging markets—roughly $30 billion—there will be few places to hide. The growth outlook for emerging markets, especially outside of India and China, is also less exciting and many countries will likely be grappling with higher levels of debt post-Covid.

Investors are warily watching the Federal Reserve’s policy meeting this week and bracing for another painful “taper tantrum” in emerging markets that led to painful losses . But it may not be as bad this time.\nFund managers cited a taper tantrum as the second-biggest risk after inflation in a recent survey by Bank of America. Emerging markets felt the brunt of the last taper tantrum, with the MSCI Emerging Markets index falling roughly 10% in four months as investors yanked money out as higher yields in the U.S. offered them alternatives in 2013. That added pressure to emerging market countries, exacerbating precarious fiscal positions in countries reliant on foreign funding.\nMany emerging market countries have better fiscal positions and stronger reserves to deal this time to deal with the fallout from another Fed taper. Increased demand for commodities should also help insulate non-Asian markets from disruptive outflows, giving policy makers more room to maneuver, according to Gavkeal Research analysts Udith Sikand and Vincent Tsui.\nThe duo expects a less extreme reaction in emerging markets, writing in a note this month that the Fed may also be more attuned to the fragility of the global backdrop and careful to avoid sparking a panic.\nPlus, U.S. real yields are already inching up, which could mean any further rise in yields on the back of a Fed tapering could be smaller. As a result, the analysts think several emerging markets could be less vulnerable this time around and even outperform.\nOf course, if a Fed taper triggers the type of outflows seen last time from emerging markets—roughly $30 billion—there will be few places to hide. The growth outlook for emerging markets, especially outside of India and China, is also less exciting and many countries will likely be grappling with higher levels of debt post-Covid. And the most fiscally fragile could still be vulnerable (think Turkey and South Africa).\nBut some money managers see pockets of opportunity in emerging markets. While 2013 is still fresh in the minds of emerging market investors, not all instances of Fed tightening have created such painful periods. Between 2004 to 2006, the MSCI Emerging Markets index returned more than 80% as the Federal Reserve raised the fed-funds rate by 4.25 percentage points, analysts at RockCreek wrote in a note to clients this week. A strong economic recovery led to the tightening in 2004—a period where emerging markets also saw the benefits of a strong commodities market. The RockCreek team highlighted similarities to that period: Commodities are booming again and the U.S. is in the throes of an economic recovery.\nPicking the right spots in emerging markets will be important, as some countries are better-positioned for stronger commodity demand and to withstand volatility from a Fed taper. Others, like China are still grappling with country-specific issues,like antimonopoly measures that loom over not just the e-commerce and internet sectors but also education.\nOxford Economics strategists favor commodity-oriented beneficiaries in emerging markets in Brazil, for example, where valuations are less stretched than in “new-economy” areas of the market like Chinese technology stocks.\nSome emerging markets managers are also looking to banks in countries like Brazil as a way to benefit from the commodities boom and broader recovery. Gavekal also recommends overweight emerging-market stocks with a preference for non-Asian commodity exporters, as well as countries with weaker currencies like Brazil and Mexico.\nThe iShares MSCI Brazilexchange-traded fund (EWZ) is up 26% over the last three months; the iShares MSCI Mexico ETF (EWW) is up nearly 13% while the China-heavy iShares MSCI Emerging Markets index (EEM) is up just 4% over that period.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":158,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":160431266,"gmtCreate":1623803924055,"gmtModify":1703819821290,"author":{"id":"3574875111869274","authorId":"3574875111869274","name":"HengHeng70","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dcfaef6a1ec90952d9ee5964e8b97937","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574875111869274","authorIdStr":"3574875111869274"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"No worries...

The fever to join in turning a quick mark infected nearly all classes..Everyone from the elevator operator up was playing the market.\"\n\"The volumes of turnover in securities on the Berlin Bourse became so high that the financial industry could not keep up with the paperwork...and the Bourse was obliged to close several days a week to work off the backlog\" #robinhooddown\n\"all the marks that existed in the world in the summer of 1922 were not worth enough, by November of 1923, to buy a single  newspaper or a tram ticket. That was the spectacular part of the collapse, but most of the real loss in money wealth had been suffered much earlier.\"\n\"Throughout these years the structure was quietly building itself up for the blow.Germany's #inflationcycle ran not for a year but for nine years, representing eight years of gestation and only one year of #collapse.\"\nHis punchline: the above was \"written in 1974 re: 1914-1923\" and then makes the ominous extrapolation that \"2010-2021: Gestation\" adding that \"when dollars might as well be falling from the sky...management teams get creative and ultimately take more risk.. paying out debt-financed dividends to investors or investing in risky growth opportunities has beaten a frugal mentality hands down.\"\nAnd, as if reading from the same playbook,Paul Tudor Jones warned yesterday that things are \"bat shit crazy\"and if Jay Powell\n\n“The idea that inflation is transitory, to me ... that one just doesn’t work the way I see the world.\"\n\nAll of which led to Burry's latest tweet warning this morning...\n\n\"People always ask me what is going on in the markets. It is simple. Greatest Speculative Bubble of All Time in All Things. By two orders of magnitude.#FlyingPigs360\"\n\nIn other words:\"Brace!\"\nSo what are you going to do about it?\nTudor Jones had some simple advice: \"buy commodities, buy crypto, buy gold.\"","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":203,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":160875458,"gmtCreate":1623788779374,"gmtModify":1703819375317,"author":{"id":"3574875111869274","authorId":"3574875111869274","name":"HengHeng70","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dcfaef6a1ec90952d9ee5964e8b97937","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574875111869274","authorIdStr":"3574875111869274"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Agree.

Intel also recently announced plans to become a “foundry,” or a company that manufactures microchips for other companies.\nGelsinger said Intel planned to announce an additional “mega fab” in the U.S. or Europe before the end of the year.\nGelsinger was appearing at a CNBC panel alongside Qualcomm CEO Cristiano Amon. Both started leading their companies earlier this year.\nWhile the companies are rivals, the CEOs downplayed the competition, and suggested the two chipmakers could end up partnering in areas where they don’t overlap. Qualcomm makes (among other things) chips that connect to 5G networks, while Intel mainly builds central processing units (CPUs) that provide base computing power.\n“You know, we are the unquestioned compute leader, and Qualcomm’s the unquestioned comms leader. Compute meets comms. Right, a lot of new use cases,” Gelsinger said.\nAmon said that he believed that Intel’s foundry plan could be an advantage for Qualcomm, which uses outside foundries to make its chips.\n“There’s a lot of opportunities for the companies to cooperate. Look, we look at Intel and Qualcomm at true technology companies in the United States, we do a lot of advanced and fundamental research to push the industry forward,” Amon said.\nThe two companies do share some strategic concerns. They are both likely to be boosted by a package included in a technology bill currently in the U.S. House of Representatives that would provide $52 billion to fund semiconductor research, design and manufacturing.\n“We’re also very happy about building a much more resilient supply chain, with the on-shoring of semiconductor manufacturing, I think that’s also very important,” Amon said. “You need investment at this order of magnitude for that to happen.”\nBoth companies are also closely watching rival Nvidia’s purchase of Arm from SoftBank for $40 billion. Arm technology is especially important for Qualcomm, because it is essential for designing the kind of low-power microprocessors smartphones use.\nThe deal is also making chip companies nervous that they would need to license essential intellectual property from a competitor, and is facing regulatory challenges in Europe. Currently, Arm doesn’t make any full chips — it just designs underlying technology. On Monday, an Arm spokesperson told CNBC that the company is “extremely confident” that the deal will be approved.\nOver the weekend,Amon told a U.K. newspaper that if the transaction was blocked or Arm otherwise stayed independent, Qualcomm would be interested in investing in Arm.\nWhen asked about Amon’s comment, Gelsinger said: “We are on record saying we’re concerned about the Nvidia-Arm acquisition. And if there were other approaches possible, we’d definitely be interested in understanding them.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":414,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":160874579,"gmtCreate":1623789247491,"gmtModify":1703819377106,"author":{"id":"3574875111869274","authorId":"3574875111869274","name":"HengHeng70","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dcfaef6a1ec90952d9ee5964e8b97937","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574875111869274","authorIdStr":"3574875111869274"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"History will repeat....

Powell’s Q&A session with reporters is scheduled to follow. Powell’s comments are beinghighly anticipated across Wall Street, as traders and investors look for fresh insights into how the Fed will respond to aseries of recent data pointsshowing inflation across the U.S. economy.\nOn“Squawk Box,”Cramer said he expects Powell to face “endless heckling” from journalists about whether the central bank’s highly accommodative monetary policy remains appropriate at this stage of the economy’s recovery from the Covid pandemic.\nPowell “has been saying, ‘I’m going to stay the course, stay the course.’ But there’s just this tortuous Q&A thing that he does, where it’s just a nightmare,” the“Mad Money”host said.\n“There are going to be people who just ask about the [producer price index] eight straight times, and they’re going to try and wear him down and maybe at one point he’s just worn down and he goes, ‘Yeah I know we’re buying too many mortgages’ ... or he slips up,” Cramer suggested.\nThe Labor Department on Tuesday said the PPI in Mayrose a hot 6.6% year over year, the largest 12-month increase on record. That comes after last week’sbig spike in consumer prices.\n“I mean, Jay is really practiced, but on the eighth question or the ninth question, I think he’s going to say, ‘Listen, I’m going to look at this,’ and that’s going to freak people out,” Cramer continued.\nAsked by CNBC’sAndrew Ross Sorkinabout how, exactly, stocks might react in that hypothetical scenario, Cramer responded: “Market goes down big, and we go down for about four, five days.”\nCramer also reiterated that he shares Powell’s inflation outlook, believing the rise in prices is likely to be temporary during the Covid recovery, justifying the Fed’s near-zero interest rates and asset purchase program.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":187,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":187446445,"gmtCreate":1623763268887,"gmtModify":1703818539838,"author":{"id":"3574875111869274","authorId":"3574875111869274","name":"HengHeng70","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dcfaef6a1ec90952d9ee5964e8b97937","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574875111869274","authorIdStr":"3574875111869274"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Where is all the monies?","listText":"Where is all the monies?","text":"Where is all the monies?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/187446445","repostId":"1175229651","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1175229651","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1623761854,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1175229651?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-15 20:57","market":"us","language":"en","title":"'Gonna Need More Stimmies' - US Retail Sales Plunged In May","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1175229651","media":"zerohedge","summary":"With a lack of stimmies to keep the spending dream alive, analysts expected a 0.8% MoM plunge in ret","content":"<p>With a lack of stimmies to keep the spending dream alive, analysts expected a 0.8% MoM plunge in retail sales (<i>confirming BofA's recent perfect streak of predictions</i>), but the data was even worse, tumbling 1.3% MoM...</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/45b8615441c602f54053c2e255ce180a\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"274\"><i>Source: Bloomberg</i></p>\n<p>Given the expected impact of autos from the chip shortage,<b>a \"cleaner\" number of the Ex-Autos print which was also a disaster,</b>tumbling 0.7% MoM (much worse than the 0.4% improvement expected)</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/29613437d5cc305349ea8b7f9b50ab0f\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"272\"><i>Source: Bloomberg</i></p>\n<p>BofA's forecasts nailed it again:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>BofA said retail headline -1.4%, came in at -1.4%</li>\n <li>BofA said retail ex auto -0.6%, came in at -0.7%</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Building Materials saw the biggest drop, along with Motor Vehicles (as noted above).

So I don’t think we will be able to see open and free travel in the region, in particular, any time soon,” said the minister who also co-chairs Singapore’s coronavirus task force.\nSingapore is a Southeast Asian city-state with no domestic air travel market. International travel came to a sudden halt in the past year due to the pandemic, and that’s hurt Singapore’s aviation and tourism sectors — two major contributors to economic growth.\nWong said the Singapore government continues to talk with its counterparts in the region about setting up “safe travel lanes.” He didn’t name the places Singapore is in talks.\n“Perhaps amongst the countries with low and stable infections, we may have some travel arrangements. Perhaps for vaccinated travelers, there may be some benefits in terms of shorter quarantine times,” said the minister.\n“But for the most part ... all of that is not going to add up to what we used to have pre-Covid. So air travel, I’m afraid, will take some time to recover,” Wong added.\n\nSingapore has an air travel bubble agreement with Hong Kong that will allowtravelers to skip quarantine. But the launch of the scheme has been postponed twice — first from November and then again in May — due to renewed Covid outbreaks in either cities.\nLast week, the prime ministers of Singapore and Australia said they will work toward an air travel bubble arrangement between the two countries.\nSingapore’s Covid situation\nAsia, where the coronavirus was first detected, saw a spike in infections in recent months. Places ranging from developing nations to more developed economies including Japan and Taiwan had a resurgence in cases.\nSingapore also experienced a renewed rise in cases last month after previous successes in containing the outbreak — which led the government to tighten social-distancing measures.\nWong said those measures have been working and that allows the country to gradually ease restrictions again. But he warned that the situation could be unpredictable.\n“You know, with this virus, you can never tell what happens in the next few days, because … there will always be surprises. It’s a very tricky virus. Each time you think you have it under control, it pops up in a new direction,” said Wong.\nThe minister reiterated the government’s goal of having at least 50% of the population fully vaccinated by August.\nSingapore appears on track to meet that goal. Around 2.7 million people — or 47% of the country’s population — have received at least the first dose of Covid vaccine as of Monday, according to the latest health ministry data.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":459,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":169616784,"gmtCreate":1623832486548,"gmtModify":1703820806956,"author":{"id":"3574875111869274","authorId":"3574875111869274","name":"HengHeng70","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dcfaef6a1ec90952d9ee5964e8b97937","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574875111869274","authorIdStr":"3574875111869274"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"The risk is low.&nbsp;","listText":"The risk is low.&nbsp;","text":"The risk is low.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/169616784","repostId":"2143530687","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2143530687","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1623829500,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2143530687?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-16 15:45","market":"us","language":"en","title":"How Worrisome Are Heart Issues Reported With Pfizer's and Moderna's COVID Vaccines?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2143530687","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"It's way too early to worry.","content":"<p>Nearly 170 million Americans have received the COVID-19 vaccine developed by <b>Pfizer</b> (NYSE:PFE) and <b>BioNTech</b> (NASDAQ:BNTX).

Some market participants believe it’s still too soon for the central bank to signal such a tapering action, while others think the Fed will be able to find a happy medium that won’t upset the markets.\nEach scenario has different investing implications as they are expected to make big moves across asset classes.\nHere’s a playbook for traders on every scenario from the central bank’s key meeting.\nIf the Fed signals it’s staying with easy policies\nThe Fed could reiterate its transitory stance on inflation, ignoring the pick-up in price pressures reflected in recent economic data. If the central bank says its not time to remove accommodative policies and it’s not concerned about inflation, investors should stick with hedges against rising prices like commodities and stocks with high pricing power, investment banks found.\nBank of America screened S&P 500 companies that its analysts believe have the most pricing power and ability to expand margins at times of rising prices. The stocks include a few chipmakers —Nvidia,Texas InstrumentsandBroadcom— as well as consumer plays likeHome Depot,NikeandPepsiCo.Energy dividend payerExxon Mobilis also on the list.\nUBS also developed a framework for scoring corporate pricing agility, which considers pricing power, margin momentum and input cost exposure. For pricing power, UBS quantified the extent to which a company can raise prices over and above costs. For margin momentum, UBS tracked corporate pricing trends using its proprietary pricing mapping.\nFor input cost exposure, UBS searched for companies with negative sentiment around commodity and transport costs on earnings calls.\n\nBillionaire hedge fund manager Paul Tudor Jones said earlier this week that investors should “go all in on the inflation trades” if the Fed keeps ignoring higher prices.\n“If they treat these numbers — which were material events, they were very material —if they treat them with nonchalance, I think it’s just a green light to bet heavily on every inflation trade,” Tudor Jones said on “Squawk Box”on Monday.\n“If they say, ‘We’re on path, things are good,’ then I would just go all in on the inflation trades. I’d probably buy commodities, buy crypto, buy gold,” added Tudor Jones, who called the stock market crash in 1987.\nThe legendary investor believe cryptocurrencies and other commodities are favorable inflation hedges. Other than buying the commodities outright, investors could also bet on related exchange-traded funds, like gold miner ETFs.\nThe VanEck Vectors Gold Miners ETF (GDX),the biggest gold miner ETF with more than $14 billion in assets under management, has outperformed the populargold ETF GLDso far this year.\nIf the Fed signals it’s time to start removing easy policies\nAnother widely speculated scenario is for the Fed to signal that it’s nearing the time to dial back easy policy saying it will start tapering soon and move up its forecast for a rate increase. Under such a case where the central bank isn’t sufficiently dovish, many expect bond yields to shoot higher.\n“It could easily move longer yields higher,” said Kristina Hooper, Invesco’s chief global market strategist. “A revised dot plot could be one way to do that if it shows the anticipation of earlier or more aggressive rate hikes. And Fed Chair Jay Powell could easily push rates up if he shares that the Fed has started discussing tapering or suggests tapering could start in the next several months.”\nTudor Jones warned that this scenario could lead to another taper tantrum that could cause a correction in stocks.\n“If they course correct, if they say, ‘We’ve got incoming data, we’ve accomplished our mission or we’re on the way very rapidly to accomplishing our mission on employment,’ then you’re going to get a taper tantrum,”Tudor Jones said on Monday. “You’re going to get a sell-off in fixed income. You’re going to get a correction in stocks.”\nCNBC Pro combed through the returns of all S&P 500 stocks during the last five significant spikes in the 10-year Treasury yield. These five periods of a sharp move in rates occurred between 2003 and 2006, 2008 and 2009, 2012 and 2013, 2016 and 2018, and 2020 through now.\nAfter we found the stocks that beat the market every time, we looked for the names that are well-loved by analysts on Wall Street today. The stocks’ average gains during those rising interest rate periods are listed below, along with the percentage of analysts with buy ratings right now.\n\nBank of America’s head of U.S. equity and quantitative strategy Savita Subramanian is advising clients to buy high-quality stocks when tapering nears. High-quality stocks have a “B+” or better S&P quality rating.\nSubramanian said during the 2013 taper tantrum, high-quality names outperformed their low-quality counterparts by 1.3 percentage points from peak to trough in May and June.\nA hint at removing stimulus could also hurt stocks that are most sensitive to the economic recovery, including cyclicals like financials, energy and materials.\n“More hawkish = lower growth. Cyclicals should underperform,” Dennis DeBusschere, macro research analyst at Evercore ISI, said in a note. “The fact that hawkish concerns are being brought up at the same time people believe the reflation trade is in trouble and you have a poor Cyclical backdrop.”\nSo far in 2021, the energy sector has been the biggest winner among the 11 S&P 500 groupings, up 46%. Financials and real estate both gained more than 20% this year.\nIf the Fed makes both camps happy\nA third scenario could occur in which the Fed signals that it is concerned about inflation, but the central bank is not yet ready to taper.\nIf Fed chair Jerome Powell admits the discussion of tapering but nothing has been decided, then the market will likely see a modest rally, led by tech stocks, according to Tom Essaye, founder of the Sevens Report.\n“This is essentially the outcome that Powell and the Fed have been telegraphing for the past several weeks,” Essaye said. “This would be a continuation of the past two weeks’ Goldilocks market outlook. This outcome would help the S&P 500 extend last week’s breakout.”\nInvestors have been rotating back to tech as of late with bond yields coming down. The tech-heavyNasdaq Compositehas rallied about 2.5% this month, hitting a record close on Monday, its first all-time high since April 26. In comparison, the S&P 500 has risen just under 1% in June.\n“This is what the Fed has been doing for the last several months — warning that an inflation surge was coming but that it is transitory so no need to taper,” Jim Paulsen, chief investment strategist at the Leuthold Group, told CNBC. “Moreover, this is probably the most expected outcome from the Fed meeting.”\n“Yes, there may be comments by members that the time to start talking about tapering is here, but I think Powell will continue to suggest that inflation is up as expected but is not yet acting any differently than anticipated,” added Paulsen.\nThis year’s pullback in tech stocks has opened some opportunities in high-quality names that are now trading at a discount, according to top-rated technology analyst Toni Sacconaghi of Bernstein.\nThe Wall Street firm found several technology stocks that have inexpensive valuations and are high in quality. Bernstein screened for the cheapest tech names based on their forward price-to-earnings ratio. The firm also assigned each stock with a quality score.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":187,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":160877269,"gmtCreate":1623789531851,"gmtModify":1703819378080,"author":{"id":"3574875111869274","authorId":"3574875111869274","name":"HengHeng70","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dcfaef6a1ec90952d9ee5964e8b97937","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574875111869274","authorIdStr":"3574875111869274"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Huge bet!

It brings Cruise's war chest to more than $10 billion, according to Cruise CEO Dan Ammann.\n″$10 billion. It’s a big number. However, when you think about what we’re building - safer, cleaner, and more accessible transportation for the world - you quickly realize it’s also a necessary number,” Ammann said in a blog post. “This is an incredibly exciting time for Cruise.”\nUltimately, GM Finance is providing Cruise credit instead of the company attempting to raise outside capital, which it has done in the past. GM acquired Cruise in 2016. Since then, it has brought on investors such as Honda Motor, SoftBank Vision Fund and, more recently, Walmart and Microsoft.\nThis past month, Cruise said GM began assembly of 100 pre-production Cruise Origin vehicles that will be built this summer for validation testing.\nThe Origin, which wasunveiled in January 2020, is the company’s first vehicle specifically designed to operate without a driver on board. It does not have manual controls such as pedals or a steering wheel.\nThe new credit line and pre-production model announcements follow Cruise earlier this month becoming the first autonomous vehicle developer to obtain a permit from the California Public Utilities Commission to givepassengers rides in prototype robotaxis.\nCommercializing autonomous vehicles has been far more challenging than many predicted even a few years ago. The challenges have led to a consolidation in the autonomous vehicle sector after years of enthusiasm touting the technology as the next multitrillion-dollar market for transportation companies.\nCruise was expected to launch a ride-hailing service for the public in San Francisco in 2019. The company delayed those plans that year to conduct further testing. It has been operating an employee ride-hailing service with a current fleet of autonomous vehicles in San Francisco for several years.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":92,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":160875458,"gmtCreate":1623788779374,"gmtModify":1703819375317,"author":{"id":"3574875111869274","authorId":"3574875111869274","name":"HengHeng70","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dcfaef6a1ec90952d9ee5964e8b97937","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574875111869274","authorIdStr":"3574875111869274"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Agree.

As it turns out, we were correct.</p>\n<p>Because on Monday, Mathew McDermott, head of digital assets at Goldman, told Bloomberg News that the bank is planning to sell options and futures for ether and bitcoinvia its newly restarted crypto trading desk.</p>\n<p>Even JP Morgan, whose CEO once famously bashed bitcoin,is expanding its own crypto business,claiming its clients demand it. The global banking regulators at the Basel Committee also gave a begrudging green light for international banks to deal in cryptocurrencies (though they need to hold plenty of capital in reserve for any crypto on their balance sheet).</p>\n<p>According to McDermott, even after the drop in crypto prices, hedge funds are still eager to trade crypto. And Goldman is looking to invest in more crypto-focused companies.</p>\n<blockquote>\n \"We’ve actually seen a lot of interest from clients who are eager to trade as they find these levels as a slightly more palatable entry point,” McDermott said in a phone interview on Thursday. “We see it as a cleansing exercise to reduce some of the leverage and the excess in the system, especially from a retail perspective.” Goldman tapped McDermott, 47, to head its digital currency efforts last year. Under his watch, the business has grown to 17 people from four. The bank has also invested in crypto start-ups. It put $5 million into a fundraising round by Blockdaemon, a firm that creates and hosts the computer nodes that make up blockchain networks. In May, Goldman led the $15 million investment into Coin Metrics, a cryptocurrency and blockchain data provider to institutional clients, and McDermott joined the company’s board. “We are looking at a number of different companies that fit into our strategic direction,” he said. Other banks have also expanded their crypto operations. Cowen Inc. plans to offer “institutional-grade” custody services for cryptocurrencies. Standard Chartered Plc is setting up a joint venture to buy and sell virtual currencies, though HSBC Holdings Plc is avoiding Bitcoin for now.\n</blockquote>\n<p>Circling back to the report we mentioned above, Goldman and its team of analysts have clearly explored the pros and cons before deciding to expand its business.</p>\n<p>The term “cryptocurrencies”—which most people take to mean that crypto assets act as a digital medium of exchange, like fiat currency—is fundamentally misleading when it comes to assessing the value of these assets. Indeed,<b>the blockchain that underlies bitcoin was not designed to replace a fiat currency—it is a trusted peer-to-peer payments network.</b>As a cryptographic algorithm generates the proof that the payment was correctly executed, no third party is needed to verify the transaction.<b>The blockchain and its native coin were therefore designed to replace the banking system and others like insurance that require a trusted intermediary today, not the Dollar.</b>In that sense, the blockchain is differentiated from other “digital” transactional mechanisms such as PayPal, which is dependent upon the banking system to prevent fraud like double-spending.</p>\n<p>In order to be trustworthy, the system needed to create an asset that had no liabilities or contingent claims, which can only be a real asset just like a commodity. And to achieve that, blockchain technologies used scarcity in natural resources—oil, gas, coal, uranium and hydro—through ever-increasing computational-power consumption to “mine” a bit version of a natural resource.</p>\n<p>From this perspective, the intrinsic value of the network is the trustworthy information that the blockchain produces through its mining process, and the coins native to the network are required to unlock this trusted information, and make it tradeable and fungible. It’s therefore impossible to say that the network has value and a role in society without saying that the coin does too. And the value of the coin is dependent upon the value and growth of the network.</p>\n<p>That said, because the network is decentralized and anonymous,<b>legal challenges facing future growth for crypto assets loom large.</b>Coins trying to displace the Dollar run headlong into anti-money laundering laws (AML), as exemplified by the recent ransoms demanded in bitcoin from the Colonial Pipeline operator and the Irish Health service. Regulators can impede the use of crypto assets as a substitute for the Dollar or other currencies simply by making them non-convertible. An asset only has value if it can either be used or sold. And Chinese and Indian authorities have already challenged crypto uses in payments.</p>\n<p>As a result,<b>the market share of coins used for other purposes beyond currencies like “smart contracts” and “information tokens” will likely continue to rise.</b>However, even these non-currency uses will need to be recognized by courts of law to be accepted in commercial transactions—a question we leave to the lawyers.</p>\n<p><b>The network creates the value, unlike other commodities</b></p>\n<p>Unlike other commodities, coins derive their entire value from the network. A bitcoin has no value outside of its network as it is native to the Bitcoin blockchain. The value of oil is also largely derived from the transportation network that it fuels, but at least oil can be burned to create heat outside of this network.<b>At the other extreme, gold doesn’t require a network at all.</b></p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/aba6f2b8dd670875cb7a0942c5fd95f0\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"399\">Derived demand leaves the holder of the commodity exposed to the risk of the network becoming obsolete—a lesson that holders of oil reserves are now learning with decarbonization accelerating the decline of the transportation network, and, in turn damaging oil demand. Likewise,<b>bitcoin owners face accelerated network decay risk from a competing network, backed by a new cryptocurrency.</b></p>\n<p>As the demand for gold is not dependent on a network,<b>it will ultimately outlive oil and bitcoin—gold entropy lies at the unit, not the network, level.</b>Indeed, most stores of value that are used as defensive assets—like gold, diamonds and collectibles—don’t have derived demand and therefore only face unit-level entropy risk. This is what makes them defensive. The world can fall apart around them and they preserve their value. And while they don’t have derived demand, they do have other uses that establish their value, i.e. gold is used for jewelry and as a store of value.</p>\n<p><b>Transactions drive value, creating a risk-on asset</b></p>\n<p>Crypto doesn’t trade like gold and nor should it. Using any standard valuation method, transactions or expected transactions on the network are the key determinant of network value. The more transactions the blockchain can verify, the greater the network value. Transaction volumes and the demand for commodified information are roughly correlated with the business cycle; thus,<b>crypto assets should trade as pro-cyclical risk-on assets as they have for the past decade. Gold and bitcoin are therefore not competing assets as is commonly misunderstood, and can instead co-exist.</b>Because the value of the network and hence the coin is derived from the volume of transactions, hoarding coins as stores of value reduces the coins available for transactions, which reduces the value of the network.<b>Because gold doesn’t have this property, it is the only commodity that institutional investors hold in physical inventory.</b>Nearly all other commodities are held in paper inventory in the form of futures to avoid disrupting the network.<b>This suggests that, like oil, crypto investments will need to be held in the form of futures contracts, not physically, if they are to serve as stores of value.</b></p>\n<p>Crypto assets aren’t digital oil, either, as they are not non-durable consumables and can therefore be used again. This durability makes them a store of value, provided this demand doesn’t disrupt network flows. The crypto assets that have the greatest utility are also likely to be the dominant stores of value—the high utility reduces the carry costs.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e2873efa55fd8073c76445c1cdc110f9\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"390\"></p>\n<p><b>So what is crypto? A powerful networking effect</b></p>\n<p>The network provides crypto an extremely powerful networking externality that no other commodity possesses. The operators—miners, exchanges and developers—are all paid in the native coin, making them fully vested in its success. Similarly, users—merchants, investors and speculators—are also fully vested. This gives bitcoin holders an incentive to accommodate purchases of their own products in bitcoin, which in turn, creates more demand for the coins they already own. Similarly, ether holders have an incentive to build apps and other products on the Ethereum network to increase the value of their coins.</p>\n<p><b>Because the coin holders have a stake in the network, speculation spurs adoption; even during bust periods, coin holders are motivated to work to create the next new boom.</b>After the dot-com bust, the shareholders had no commodity to promote. In crypto assets, even when prices collapse, the coin holders have a commodity to promote. They will always live for another boom, like an oil wildcatter.</p>\n<p><b>It’s all about information</b></p>\n<p>As the value of the coin is dependent on the value of the trustworthy information, blockchain technology has gravitated toward those industries where trust is most essential—finance, law and medicine. For the Bitcoin blockchain, this information is the record of every balance sheet in the network, and the transactions between them—originally the role of banks. In the case of a smart contract—a piece of code that executes according to a pre-set rule—on Ethereum, both the terms of that contract (the code) and the state of the contract (executed or not) are the information validated on the Ethereum blockchain. As a result, the counterparty in the contract cannot claim a transfer of funds without the network forming a consensus that the contract was indeed executed.<u><b>In our view the most valuable crypto assets will be those that help verify the most critical information in the economy.</b></u></p>\n<p>Over time, the decentralized nature of the network will diminish concerns about storing personal data on the blockchain. One’s digital profile could contain personal data including asset ownership, medical history and even IP rights. Since this information is immutable—it cannot be changed without consensus—the trusted information can then be tokenized and traded.<b><u>A blockchain platform like Ethereum could potentially become a large market for vendors of trusted information, like Amazon is for consumer goods today</u></b><b>.</b></p>\n<p><b>Crypto beyond this boom and bust cycle</b></p>\n<p>By many measures—Metcalfe’s Lawor Network Value to Transactions (NVT) ratio —crypto assets are in bubble territory. But does the demand for “commodified information” create enough economic value at a low enough cost to be scaled up in the long run? If the legal system accommodates these assets, we believe so.<b>While many overvalued networks exist, a few will likely emerge as long-term winners in the next stage of the digital economy, just as the tech titans of today emerged from the dot-com boom and bust.</b>This transformation is happening now—there are already an estimated 21.2 million owners of cryptocurrencies in the US alone. However, technological, environmental and legal challenges still loom large.</p>\n<p>Ethereum 2.0is expected to ramp upcapacity to 3,000 transactions per second (tps), while sharding—<b>which will scale Ethereum 2.0’s Proof of Stake (PoS) system through parallel verification of transactions—has the potential to raise capacity to as much as 100,000 tps.</b>For context, Visa has the capacity to process up to 65,000 tps but typically executes around 2,000 tps.<b>PoS intends to have validators stake the now scarce and valuable coins to incentivize good behavior instead of having miners expend energy to mine new blocks into existence, as under Proof of Work, making crypto assets more ESG friendly.</b>PoS also can significantly boost computational time in terms of transactions per second, which will further incentivize technological adoption. Ironically,<b>this is likely where the value of and demand for bitcoin will come from—being used as the scarce resource to make the PoS system work instead of natural resources.</b></p>\n<p>While overcoming the economic challenges will likely be manageable, the legal challenges are the largest for many crypto assets. And this past week was challenging for crypto assets with confirmation that the 75 bitcoin ransom over the Colonial Pipeline was actually paid.

As it turns out, we were correct.\nBecause on Monday, Mathew McDermott, head of digital assets at Goldman, told Bloomberg News that the bank is planning to sell options and futures for ether and bitcoinvia its newly restarted crypto trading desk.\nEven JP Morgan, whose CEO once famously bashed bitcoin,is expanding its own crypto business,claiming its clients demand it. The global banking regulators at the Basel Committee also gave a begrudging green light for international banks to deal in cryptocurrencies (though they need to hold plenty of capital in reserve for any crypto on their balance sheet).\nAccording to McDermott, even after the drop in crypto prices, hedge funds are still eager to trade crypto. And Goldman is looking to invest in more crypto-focused companies.\n\n \"We’ve actually seen a lot of interest from clients who are eager to trade as they find these levels as a slightly more palatable entry point,” McDermott said in a phone interview on Thursday. “We see it as a cleansing exercise to reduce some of the leverage and the excess in the system, especially from a retail perspective.” Goldman tapped McDermott, 47, to head its digital currency efforts last year. Under his watch, the business has grown to 17 people from four. The bank has also invested in crypto start-ups. It put $5 million into a fundraising round by Blockdaemon, a firm that creates and hosts the computer nodes that make up blockchain networks. In May, Goldman led the $15 million investment into Coin Metrics, a cryptocurrency and blockchain data provider to institutional clients, and McDermott joined the company’s board. “We are looking at a number of different companies that fit into our strategic direction,” he said. Other banks have also expanded their crypto operations. Cowen Inc. plans to offer “institutional-grade” custody services for cryptocurrencies. Standard Chartered Plc is setting up a joint venture to buy and sell virtual currencies, though HSBC Holdings Plc is avoiding Bitcoin for now.\n\nCircling back to the report we mentioned above, Goldman and its team of analysts have clearly explored the pros and cons before deciding to expand its business.\nThe term “cryptocurrencies”—which most people take to mean that crypto assets act as a digital medium of exchange, like fiat currency—is fundamentally misleading when it comes to assessing the value of these assets. Indeed,the blockchain that underlies bitcoin was not designed to replace a fiat currency—it is a trusted peer-to-peer payments network.As a cryptographic algorithm generates the proof that the payment was correctly executed, no third party is needed to verify the transaction.The blockchain and its native coin were therefore designed to replace the banking system and others like insurance that require a trusted intermediary today, not the Dollar.In that sense, the blockchain is differentiated from other “digital” transactional mechanisms such as PayPal, which is dependent upon the banking system to prevent fraud like double-spending.\nIn order to be trustworthy, the system needed to create an asset that had no liabilities or contingent claims, which can only be a real asset just like a commodity. And to achieve that, blockchain technologies used scarcity in natural resources—oil, gas, coal, uranium and hydro—through ever-increasing computational-power consumption to “mine” a bit version of a natural resource.\nFrom this perspective, the intrinsic value of the network is the trustworthy information that the blockchain produces through its mining process, and the coins native to the network are required to unlock this trusted information, and make it tradeable and fungible. It’s therefore impossible to say that the network has value and a role in society without saying that the coin does too. And the value of the coin is dependent upon the value and growth of the network.\nThat said, because the network is decentralized and anonymous,legal challenges facing future growth for crypto assets loom large.Coins trying to displace the Dollar run headlong into anti-money laundering laws (AML), as exemplified by the recent ransoms demanded in bitcoin from the Colonial Pipeline operator and the Irish Health service. Regulators can impede the use of crypto assets as a substitute for the Dollar or other currencies simply by making them non-convertible. An asset only has value if it can either be used or sold. And Chinese and Indian authorities have already challenged crypto uses in payments.\nAs a result,the market share of coins used for other purposes beyond currencies like “smart contracts” and “information tokens” will likely continue to rise.However, even these non-currency uses will need to be recognized by courts of law to be accepted in commercial transactions—a question we leave to the lawyers.\nThe network creates the value, unlike other commodities\nUnlike other commodities, coins derive their entire value from the network. A bitcoin has no value outside of its network as it is native to the Bitcoin blockchain. The value of oil is also largely derived from the transportation network that it fuels, but at least oil can be burned to create heat outside of this network.At the other extreme, gold doesn’t require a network at all.\nDerived demand leaves the holder of the commodity exposed to the risk of the network becoming obsolete—a lesson that holders of oil reserves are now learning with decarbonization accelerating the decline of the transportation network, and, in turn damaging oil demand. Likewise,bitcoin owners face accelerated network decay risk from a competing network, backed by a new cryptocurrency.\nAs the demand for gold is not dependent on a network,it will ultimately outlive oil and bitcoin—gold entropy lies at the unit, not the network, level.Indeed, most stores of value that are used as defensive assets—like gold, diamonds and collectibles—don’t have derived demand and therefore only face unit-level entropy risk. This is what makes them defensive. The world can fall apart around them and they preserve their value. And while they don’t have derived demand, they do have other uses that establish their value, i.e. gold is used for jewelry and as a store of value.\nTransactions drive value, creating a risk-on asset\nCrypto doesn’t trade like gold and nor should it. Using any standard valuation method, transactions or expected transactions on the network are the key determinant of network value. The more transactions the blockchain can verify, the greater the network value. Transaction volumes and the demand for commodified information are roughly correlated with the business cycle; thus,crypto assets should trade as pro-cyclical risk-on assets as they have for the past decade. Gold and bitcoin are therefore not competing assets as is commonly misunderstood, and can instead co-exist.Because the value of the network and hence the coin is derived from the volume of transactions, hoarding coins as stores of value reduces the coins available for transactions, which reduces the value of the network.Because gold doesn’t have this property, it is the only commodity that institutional investors hold in physical inventory.Nearly all other commodities are held in paper inventory in the form of futures to avoid disrupting the network.This suggests that, like oil, crypto investments will need to be held in the form of futures contracts, not physically, if they are to serve as stores of value.\nCrypto assets aren’t digital oil, either, as they are not non-durable consumables and can therefore be used again. This durability makes them a store of value, provided this demand doesn’t disrupt network flows. The crypto assets that have the greatest utility are also likely to be the dominant stores of value—the high utility reduces the carry costs.\n\nSo what is crypto? A powerful networking effect\nThe network provides crypto an extremely powerful networking externality that no other commodity possesses. The operators—miners, exchanges and developers—are all paid in the native coin, making them fully vested in its success. Similarly, users—merchants, investors and speculators—are also fully vested. This gives bitcoin holders an incentive to accommodate purchases of their own products in bitcoin, which in turn, creates more demand for the coins they already own. Similarly, ether holders have an incentive to build apps and other products on the Ethereum network to increase the value of their coins.\nBecause the coin holders have a stake in the network, speculation spurs adoption; even during bust periods, coin holders are motivated to work to create the next new boom.After the dot-com bust, the shareholders had no commodity to promote. In crypto assets, even when prices collapse, the coin holders have a commodity to promote. They will always live for another boom, like an oil wildcatter.\nIt’s all about information\nAs the value of the coin is dependent on the value of the trustworthy information, blockchain technology has gravitated toward those industries where trust is most essential—finance, law and medicine. For the Bitcoin blockchain, this information is the record of every balance sheet in the network, and the transactions between them—originally the role of banks. In the case of a smart contract—a piece of code that executes according to a pre-set rule—on Ethereum, both the terms of that contract (the code) and the state of the contract (executed or not) are the information validated on the Ethereum blockchain. As a result, the counterparty in the contract cannot claim a transfer of funds without the network forming a consensus that the contract was indeed executed.In our view the most valuable crypto assets will be those that help verify the most critical information in the economy.\nOver time, the decentralized nature of the network will diminish concerns about storing personal data on the blockchain. One’s digital profile could contain personal data including asset ownership, medical history and even IP rights. Since this information is immutable—it cannot be changed without consensus—the trusted information can then be tokenized and traded.A blockchain platform like Ethereum could potentially become a large market for vendors of trusted information, like Amazon is for consumer goods today.\nCrypto beyond this boom and bust cycle\nBy many measures—Metcalfe’s Lawor Network Value to Transactions (NVT) ratio —crypto assets are in bubble territory. But does the demand for “commodified information” create enough economic value at a low enough cost to be scaled up in the long run? If the legal system accommodates these assets, we believe so.While many overvalued networks exist, a few will likely emerge as long-term winners in the next stage of the digital economy, just as the tech titans of today emerged from the dot-com boom and bust.This transformation is happening now—there are already an estimated 21.2 million owners of cryptocurrencies in the US alone. However, technological, environmental and legal challenges still loom large.\nEthereum 2.0is expected to ramp upcapacity to 3,000 transactions per second (tps), while sharding—which will scale Ethereum 2.0’s Proof of Stake (PoS) system through parallel verification of transactions—has the potential to raise capacity to as much as 100,000 tps.For context, Visa has the capacity to process up to 65,000 tps but typically executes around 2,000 tps.PoS intends to have validators stake the now scarce and valuable coins to incentivize good behavior instead of having miners expend energy to mine new blocks into existence, as under Proof of Work, making crypto assets more ESG friendly.PoS also can significantly boost computational time in terms of transactions per second, which will further incentivize technological adoption. Ironically,this is likely where the value of and demand for bitcoin will come from—being used as the scarce resource to make the PoS system work instead of natural resources.\nWhile overcoming the economic challenges will likely be manageable, the legal challenges are the largest for many crypto assets. And this past week was challenging for crypto assets with confirmation that the 75 bitcoin ransom over the Colonial Pipeline was actually paid. This is a reminder that cryptocurrencies still facilitate criminal activities that have large social costs.\nFor Ethereum, new companies which aim to disrupt finance, law or medicine by integrating information stored on the platform into their algorithms are likely to run into problems with being legally recognized.If crypto assets are to survive and grow to their fullest potential, they need to define some concept of “sufficiently decentralized” that will satisfy regulators; otherwise, the technologies will soon run out of uses.\nIn summary: the talk in the crypto community lately has focused on whether ether is finally supplanting bitcoin since the former has more utility, and therefore a greater potential for a network effect.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":41,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":187582864,"gmtCreate":1623759113458,"gmtModify":1703818342216,"author":{"id":"3574875111869274","authorId":"3574875111869274","name":"HengHeng70","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dcfaef6a1ec90952d9ee5964e8b97937","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574875111869274","authorIdStr":"3574875111869274"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Lower cost of funding.Great!","listText":"Lower cost of funding.Great!","text":"Lower cost of funding.Great!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/187582864","repostId":"1129954811","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1129954811","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1623757841,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1129954811?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-15 19:50","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Royal Caribbean is issuing $650 million of five-year junk bonds","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1129954811","media":"MarketWatch","summary":"Royal Caribbean Group RCL, -2.38% said Tuesday it has commenced a private offering of $650 million o","content":"<p>Royal Caribbean Group RCL, -2.38% said Tuesday it has commenced a private offering of $650 million of five-year, high-yield bonds. </p>\n<p>Proceeds of the deal will be used to fund the redemption of about $619.8 million of 7.25% notes that mature in 2025 that were issued by Silversea Cruise Finance Ltd., the cruise operator said in a statement.

He points to June's University of Michigan survey showing consumers are concerned about the prices of homes, vehicles, and durable goods.  </p><p>   If inflation clamps consumer spending, it would likely prompt revisions to otherwise strong forecasts for U.S. economic growth. Currently, Pearce expects gross domestic product for the second quarter at around 10% annualized. </p><p>   \"By the end of the year, I'd expect U.S. GDP to be pretty much back on its pre-Covid trend path, though I suspect the unemployment rate will still be slightly elevated,\" he said.</p><p>   As far as tapering goes, Pearce expects a clearer timeline around August, and a gradual rollback of purchases that takes most of 2022.   </p><p>   (GMF membership link): </p><p>   (Lisa Mattackal)</p><p>   ****</p><p>    CAUTIOUS EUROPEAN CLOSE (1150 EDT/1550 GMT)</p><p>   The banking sector being the top loser, with a 0.8% decline, probably tells you all you need to know about what change investors expect from the Fed and the ECB's policy stance.</p><p>   Yes, not much indeed and easing government bond yields tell us roughly the same story.</p><p>   Anyhow, aside from banking and auto stocks, this session was fairly positive for the pan-European STOXX 600 with a 0.2% gain. We even had an intra day high of 460.3, just a whisker below the 460.5 record set on Monday.</p><p>   One disappointing note perhaps was the IPO of Made.com</p><p>  which lost about 5% on its London debut, another company to fall on its first day of trading in a volatile year for stock market listings.</p><p>   That list comprises Deliveroo and Alphawave but also France's Believe. </p><p>   Overall the market price action was fairly limited, which is understandable before a Fed meeting. </p><p>   \"Markets have been in deep freeze the last few days waiting for tonight’s decision\", wrote Chris Beauchamp at IG. </p><p>   \"Those hoping for a mis-step from the chairman will probably be disappointed – he knows where the questions will focus and will be determined not to be caught on the hop\", he added.</p><p>   (Julien Ponthus) </p><p>   *****</p><p>   TEMPERING THE TASTE FOR TECH (1129 EDT/1529 GMT)</p><p>   LPL Financial Research is out with a note this week in which they say it's time to temper tech.</p><p>   “It’s tough not to like technology given the strong fundamentals and rapid pace of innovation from many tech companies,” explained LPL Equity Strategist Jeffrey Buchbinder. “But we expect cyclical value sectors like financials, industrials, and materials to fare better the rest of the year as the economy gets a reopening jolt.”</p><p>   Indeed, LPL downgraded technology to neutral primarily for the following reasons:</p><p>   First off, the reopening. LPL expects the market’s shift toward reopening beneficiaries vs work-from-home stocks to continue. </p><p>   Secondly, valuations. According to LPL, the P/E for the tech sector based on estimated earnings over the next 12 months, as well as its relative valuation vs the S&amp;P 500   , are both elevated. </p><p>   Additionally, comparing value to growth based on the Russell 1000 style indexes reveals an \"even bigger gap—the Growth Index is trading at a more than 60% premium to the Value Index, the most in 20 years.\" LPL adds that interest rates, which they expect to rise for the rest of 2021, might take a bite out of richly valued growth stocks.</p><p>   Finally, LPL says that although the sector is near its all-time high, its relative performance versus the S&amp;P 500 Index peaked last September and has been drifting sideways to lower since then, pointing them to a neutral sector view.</p><p>   LPL emphasizes that their downgrade doesn’t in any way mean they plan to abandon tech completely, saying that \"we believe the sector likely moves higher in the second half of the year, along with the broad market, but we just see better opportunities for outperformance in cyclical value stocks.\"</p><p>   (Terence Gabriel)</p><p>   *****</p><p>   COOKING WITH GAS: HOT INFLATION AFFECTS IMPORTS, HOUSING STARTS (1045 EDT/1445 GMT)</p><p>   Data released on Wednesday provided plenty of fodder for those who are fretting over rising prices and looking to the U.S. Federal Reserve, which concludes its two-day monetary policy meeting this afternoon, for any change in nuance regarding its assertion that the current wave is temporary.</p><p>   The cost of goods imported to the United States    increased by 1.1% in May according to the Labor Department, hotter than the 0.8% consensus and an acceleration from the previous month.  </p><p>   The increase was largely driven by gasoline and industrial supplies, further evidence that supply chain bottlenecks in the face of a demand boom are sending prices skyward.</p><p>   Year-over-year, import prices heated up to a scalding 11.3%, the highest in nearly a decade and soaring well beyond other major indicators, which are all running at or above the Fed's average annual 2% inflation target.</p><p>   But Mahir Rasheed, U.S. economist at Oxford Economics (OE), agrees with the Fed's assurances.</p><p>   \"As supply-side constraints gradually dissipate and the influence of base effects gradually fades in the coming months, we expect the pace of import price inflation to moderate in the second half of the year,\" Rasheed writes.</p><p>   Here's how those indicators stack up against the central bank's favorite inflation yardstick, core PCE:</p><p>   A report from the Commerce Department showed groundbreaking on new American homes    increased by 3.6% last month to 1.572 million units at a seasonally adjusted annualized rate (SAAR). This was cold comfort considering it, was a smaller-than-expected partial rebound from April's stark 12.1% plunge.  </p><p>   A suburban homebuying frenzy unleashed by social distancing restrictions has sent inventories to record lows, supporting the homebuilding sector. But that same supply crunch has touched building materials, launching lumber prices to the moon and hampering new construction.</p><p>   Building permits   , <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> of the more forward-looking housing indicators, dropped by 3% to 1.682 million units SAAR, steeper than expected and an acceleration from the 1.3% drop the month prior. </p><p>   It's worth pointing out, however, that building permits remain well above pre-COVID levels.</p><p>   \"We think construction has some way further to fall, though the shortage of inventory means that activity will remain higher than implied by the mortgage applications data for some time yet,\" says Ian Shepherdson, chief economist at Pantheon Macroeconomics.</p><p>   Speaking of which, dropping interest rates goosed demand for home loans by 4.2% last week, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA).</p><p>   A 4-basis-point drop in the average 30-year fixed contract rate    - to 3.11% from 3.15% - helped boost applications for refi    and purchase loans</p><p>  by 6% and 2%, respectively.</p><p>   The increase was also likely attributable, in part, to a rebound from the Memorial Day holiday effect.</p><p>   \"Strong demand and the recent decline in mortgage rates, which are down more than 25 basis points since early April, should support some homebuying activity,\" says Nancy Vanden Houten, lead economist at Oxford Economics. \"But limited supply and sharply higher home prices still present considerable headwinds.\"</p><p>   U.S. stock indexes are mixed ahead of the FOMC statement expected at 2pm EDT at the conclusion of its two-day monetary policy meeting.</p><p>   (Stephen Culp)</p><p>   *****</p><p>   MEME STOCKS LOSING STEAM, QUAD WITCHING COULD MAKE IT WORSE (0930 EDT/1330 GMT)</p><p>   A basket tracking some of the most popular meme stocks is down by 17% over the past week, analysts at Vanda Research said.</p><p>   Indeed, such stocks as AMC Entertainment Holdings Inc</p><p> , GameStop Corp   , Clover Health Investments Corp</p><p>  and Workhorse Group    are all under pressure in the early throes of Wednesday's regular session after a wild ride over the past few weeks.  </p><p>   The current meme stock bubble has been running for three weeks now, just about the same time as the last bubble in January. With retail flows surpassing the peak of Q1 and given the amount of risk embedded in these investments, retail investors will rush to the exit unless there's an immediate rally, Vanda Researchers said.</p><p>   This week's quadruple witching event could make things even more complicated for meme stocks. In the last couple of days open interest on call options on meme stocks has been declining as traders take profits before the expiry. In response, market makers are unwinding their long-stock hedges, creating a negative feedback loop, analysts added.</p><p>   Quadruple witching refers to the simultaneous expiration of single-stock options, index options, single-stock futures and index futures, which happens on the third Friday in March, June, September and December.</p><p>   \"All manias run out of energy at some point and this is no different,\" said Art Hogan, chief market strategist at National Securities in New York.</p><p>   \"It hasn't completely disappeared but overall volumes are starting to peter out and that's just the natural course of events.\"  </p><p>    (Medha Singh)</p><p>   *****</p><p>   NASDAQ VS COMMODITIES: TIME FOR TECH TO STEP UP? (0900 EDT/1300 GMT)</p><p>   The tech-laden Nasdaq Composite    relative to the Refinitiv/CoreCommodity CRB index    appears to once again be at an important juncture on the charts.  </p><p>   The Nasdaq/CRB ratio, on a weekly basis, hit a record high of 80.54 in early November of last year. Since then, however, the Nasdaq has underperformed \"stuff.\" In fact, the ratio hit a 14-month low in early June:</p><p>   Now nearly 67, the ratio is flirting with what appears to be significant support in the form of a log-scale trend line from its 2011 trough, now around 65.65, as well as the 100-week moving average <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/WMA.AU\">$(WMA.AU)$</a>, now around 64.40.</p><p>   The ratio did suffer a <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a>-week closing violation of the support line in late 2018. However, with the market's December bottom that year, it quickly reversed to the upside without breaking the 100-WMA. The trendline then contained weakness in  2019, and early 2020.</p><p>   Of note, the ratio has been on a record run vs its 100-WMA. In fact, it is on pace for its 499th straight weekly close above this long-term moving average. This current run above the 100-WMA dwarfs the ratio's 155-week streak that lasted into the Y2K tech bubble top.</p><p>   Thus, in the face of this week's event risks in the form of today's FOMC results  , and Friday's quadruple witching  , it may now be time for tech to once again step up, in order to underpin a renewed Nasdaq advance relative to commodities.   </p><p>   A ratio weekly close below support can add credence to the view that a sea change in trend is underway. A deeper decline to threaten the March 2000 high, at 28.9, could see the ratio lose more than half its value from current levels.</p><p>   (Terence Gabriel)</p><p>   *****</p><p>   FOR WEDNESDAY'S LIVE MARKETS' POSTS PRIOR TO 0900 EDT/1300 GMT - CLICK HERE:  </p><p>    &lt;^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ IXICTRCCRB06162021     Inflation     Housing starts and building permits     MBA     closer06162021    </p><p>   ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^&gt;</p><p>(Terence Gabriel is a Reuters market analyst.

The Nasdaq   , S&P 500    and Dow Industrials  finished off around 0.2%-0.8%.   Nearly all major S&P 500 sectors closed lower, with consumer discretionary    the only gainer.   Of note, after initial weakness in the wake of the FOMC statement at 2 PM EDT, and then a modest bounce, there was some additional strength that kicked in from around the time Fed Chair Powell began his 2:30 PM EDT press conference.   Although financials    were the only winner from statement release to press conference, from the presser on things changed, with discretionary, tech    and communication services    seeing the most strength then into the close. FANGs    were among the outperformers, while financials were red over this hour and half period.   In the end, growth    outperformed value    on the day.   Regarding the Fed, Frances Donald, Global Chief Economist at Manulife Investment Management said, \"The dot plot is now showing two rate hikes by 2023. That's enough of a hawkish surprise for the bond market and its getting all of the attention.\"   Donald added, \"What's interesting here is that the Federal Reserve has increased its estimate of when the first rate hikes will come but not materially changed its 2022 and 2023 projections for growth and inflation. What that tells us is that while the outlook hasn't dramatically changed it seems that the Fed's confidence in returning to a normal environment has.\"   Here is Wednesday's closing snapshot:   (Terence Gabriel, Sinéad Carew)   *****     S&P 500 RED AFTER FED (1424 EDT/1824 GMT)   The S&P 500    initially dove with the release of the FOMC Meeting statement.   This after The Federal Reserve brought forward its projections for the first post-pandemic interest rate hikes into 2023, citing an improved health situation and dropping a longstanding reference that the crisis was weighing on the economy.         The SPX has snapped back off its low some, but remains down for the day.    Nearly all major S&P 500 sectors are red on the day. Financials    are slightly positive, and are the only sector to rally since just prior to the 2 PM EDT release time. Tech    is the weakest group over this short period.   With this, the dollar    has strengthened, while spot gold    has dipped. The U.S. 10-Year Treasury yield  has popped up to around 1.54% from around 1.49%.

According to Silverblatt, after reining in buybacks in Q2 2020 ($88.7 billion; Q1 2020 was $198.7 billion), more companies ventured back into the buyback market as they sought shares to cover employee options being exercised and stem dilution.   He believes this, combined with buying from strong cash-flow companies, drove a buyback rebound in the fourth quarter of 2020 ($130.5 billion; Q3 was $101.8 billion).   Silverblatt adds that Q1 2021 accelerated the return ($178.1 billion), as more companies covered their options and did discretionary buying, thereby reducing their share count and aiding EPS.   For the remainder of 2021, Silverblatt says strong cash-flow considerations are expected to continue to dominate buyback headlines, but the \"broader market and economic story may be the breadth, expenditures and willingness of the companies, which mostly shut down their programs over COVID uncertainties, to return to buybacks.\"   (Terence Gabriel)   *****   FROM THE FED, WATCH THE DOTS AND THE FORECASTS (1215 EDT/1615 GMT)   All eyes are on the U.S. Federal Reserve for signals on how the central bank could begin unwinding its massive bond-buying program.     However, Fed chairman Jerome Powell is unlikely to provide much beyond acknowledgement that policymakers are \"talking about talking about tapering,\" Michael Pearce, senior U.S. economist at Capital Economics told the Reuters Global Markets Forum.    Pearce is eyeing the Fed's \"dot plot,\" an indication of when policymakers expect interest rate hikes.    \"The first rate hike will probably be bumped forward to 2023 in the median projection, and some of the individual dots could be higher for 2022 and 2023,\" he said.    Such revisions will not be a huge surprise, but Pearce says changes to the Fed's unemployment and inflation forecasts will be key.    Given recent data, Pearce says inflation forecasts will \"definitely need to rise,\" but if policymakers stick to their belief that inflationary forces are transitory, they could lower core inflation forecasts for 2022.    Pearce thinks inflation could be more persistent, noting supply shortages and the possible start to \"a larger upturn in the most cyclical components of (the) consumer price index.\"   A bigger question for Pearce is the impact of rising prices on economic activity. He points to June's University of Michigan survey showing consumers are concerned about the prices of homes, vehicles, and durable goods.     If inflation clamps consumer spending, it would likely prompt revisions to otherwise strong forecasts for U.S. economic growth. Currently, Pearce expects gross domestic product for the second quarter at around 10% annualized.    \"By the end of the year, I'd expect U.S. GDP to be pretty much back on its pre-Covid trend path, though I suspect the unemployment rate will still be slightly elevated,\" he said.   As far as tapering goes, Pearce expects a clearer timeline around August, and a gradual rollback of purchases that takes most of 2022.

Yes, not much indeed and easing government bond yields tell us roughly the same story.   Anyhow, aside from banking and auto stocks, this session was fairly positive for the pan-European STOXX 600 with a 0.2% gain.

That list comprises Deliveroo and Alphawave but also France's Believe.    Overall the market price action was fairly limited, which is understandable before a Fed meeting.    \"Markets have been in deep freeze the last few days waiting for tonight’s decision\", wrote Chris Beauchamp at IG.    \"Those hoping for a mis-step from the chairman will probably be disappointed – he knows where the questions will focus and will be determined not to be caught on the hop\", he added.   (Julien Ponthus)    *****   TEMPERING THE TASTE FOR TECH (1129 EDT/1529 GMT)   LPL Financial Research is out with a note this week in which they say it's time to temper tech.   “It’s tough not to like technology given the strong fundamentals and rapid pace of innovation from many tech companies,” explained LPL Equity Strategist Jeffrey Buchbinder. “But we expect cyclical value sectors like financials, industrials, and materials to fare better the rest of the year as the economy gets a reopening jolt.”   Indeed, LPL downgraded technology to neutral primarily for the following reasons:   First off, the reopening. LPL expects the market’s shift toward reopening beneficiaries vs work-from-home stocks to continue.    Secondly, valuations. According to LPL, the P/E for the tech sector based on estimated earnings over the next 12 months, as well as its relative valuation vs the S&P 500   , are both elevated.    Additionally, comparing value to growth based on the Russell 1000 style indexes reveals an \"even bigger gap—the Growth Index is trading at a more than 60% premium to the Value Index, the most in 20 years.\" LPL adds that interest rates, which they expect to rise for the rest of 2021, might take a bite out of richly valued growth stocks.   Finally, LPL says that although the sector is near its all-time high, its relative performance versus the S&P 500 Index peaked last September and has been drifting sideways to lower since then, pointing them to a neutral sector view.   LPL emphasizes that their downgrade doesn’t in any way mean they plan to abandon tech completely, saying that \"we believe the sector likely moves higher in the second half of the year, along with the broad market, but we just see better opportunities for outperformance in cyclical value stocks.\"   (Terence Gabriel)   *****   COOKING WITH GAS: HOT INFLATION AFFECTS IMPORTS, HOUSING STARTS (1045 EDT/1445 GMT)   Data released on Wednesday provided plenty of fodder for those who are fretting over rising prices and looking to the U.S. Federal Reserve, which concludes its two-day monetary policy meeting this afternoon, for any change in nuance regarding its assertion that the current wave is temporary.   The cost of goods imported to the United States    increased by 1.1% in May according to the Labor Department, hotter than the 0.8% consensus and an acceleration from the previous month.     The increase was largely driven by gasoline and industrial supplies, further evidence that supply chain bottlenecks in the face of a demand boom are sending prices skyward.   Year-over-year, import prices heated up to a scalding 11.3%, the highest in nearly a decade and soaring well beyond other major indicators, which are all running at or above the Fed's average annual 2% inflation target.   But Mahir Rasheed, U.S. economist at Oxford Economics (OE), agrees with the Fed's assurances.   \"As supply-side constraints gradually dissipate and the influence of base effects gradually fades in the coming months, we expect the pace of import price inflation to moderate in the second half of the year,\" Rasheed writes.   Here's how those indicators stack up against the central bank's favorite inflation yardstick, core PCE:   A report from the Commerce Department showed groundbreaking on new American homes    increased by 3.6% last month to 1.572 million units at a seasonally adjusted annualized rate (SAAR). This was cold comfort considering it, was a smaller-than-expected partial rebound from April's stark 12.1% plunge.     A suburban homebuying frenzy unleashed by social distancing restrictions has sent inventories to record lows, supporting the homebuilding sector. But that same supply crunch has touched building materials, launching lumber prices to the moon and hampering new construction.   Building permits   , one of the more forward-looking housing indicators, dropped by 3% to 1.682 million units SAAR, steeper than expected and an acceleration from the 1.3% drop the month prior.    It's worth pointing out, however, that building permits remain well above pre-COVID levels.   \"We think construction has some way further to fall, though the shortage of inventory means that activity will remain higher than implied by the mortgage applications data for some time yet,\" says Ian Shepherdson, chief economist at Pantheon Macroeconomics.   Speaking of which, dropping interest rates goosed demand for home loans by 4.2% last week, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA).   A 4-basis-point drop in the average 30-year fixed contract rate    - to 3.11% from 3.15% - helped boost applications for refi    and purchase loans  by 6% and 2%, respectively.   The increase was also likely attributable, in part, to a rebound from the Memorial Day holiday effect.   \"Strong demand and the recent decline in mortgage rates, which are down more than 25 basis points since early April, should support some homebuying activity,\" says Nancy Vanden Houten, lead economist at Oxford Economics. \"But limited supply and sharply higher home prices still present considerable headwinds.\"   U.S. stock indexes are mixed ahead of the FOMC statement expected at 2pm EDT at the conclusion of its two-day monetary policy meeting.

Indeed, such stocks as AMC Entertainment Holdings Inc , GameStop Corp   , Clover Health Investments Corp  and Workhorse Group    are all under pressure in the early throes of Wednesday's regular session after a wild ride over the past few weeks.

(0900 EDT/1300 GMT)   The tech-laden Nasdaq Composite    relative to the Refinitiv/CoreCommodity CRB index    appears to once again be at an important juncture on the charts.     The Nasdaq/CRB ratio, on a weekly basis, hit a record high of 80.54 in early November of last year. Since then, however, the Nasdaq has underperformed \"stuff.\" In fact, the ratio hit a 14-month low in early June:   Now nearly 67, the ratio is flirting with what appears to be significant support in the form of a log-scale trend line from its 2011 trough, now around 65.65, as well as the 100-week moving average $(WMA.AU)$, now around 64.40.   The ratio did suffer a one-week closing violation of the support line in late 2018. However, with the market's December bottom that year, it quickly reversed to the upside without breaking the 100-WMA. The trendline then contained weakness in  2019, and early 2020.   Of note, the ratio has been on a record run vs its 100-WMA. In fact, it is on pace for its 499th straight weekly close above this long-term moving average. This current run above the 100-WMA dwarfs the ratio's 155-week streak that lasted into the Y2K tech bubble top.   Thus, in the face of this week's event risks in the form of today's FOMC results  , and Friday's quadruple witching  , it may now be time for tech to once again step up, in order to underpin a renewed Nasdaq advance relative to commodities.      A ratio weekly close below support can add credence to the view that a sea change in trend is underway. A deeper decline to threaten the March 2000 high, at 28.9, could see the ratio lose more than half its value from current levels.
