Respondents were asked 'Which asset class remains most vulnerable to quantitative tightening? Pick one of the following'</span></p><p>Recent gyrations in stocks, bonds and other markets have done little to deter the US central bank from its hawkish posture, with policy makers widely expected to raise rates by another half point on June 15. The Fed began shrinking its balance sheet this month by allowing assets to mature without reinvestment at a monthly pace of $47.5 billion, increasing to as much as $95 billion per month in September.</p><p>“It’s where that quantity of capital and quantity of liquidity has been most beneficial that its withdrawal is going to continue to be felt -- and that is in the most speculative parts of the market,” Lisa Shalett, chief investment officer at Morgan Stanley Wealth Management, said on Bloomberg Television.</p><p>The MLIV survey of most-at-risk assets in the QT era canvassed a group ranging from retail investors to market strategists. Just 7% picked mortgage-backed bonds -- securities that were at the heart of the 2008-09 meltdown -- with almost half citing tech and crypto.</p><p>Draining money from the system tends to tighten financial conditions, all else equal, which acts as a brake on economic growth. That can reduce valuations for tech stocks given their reliance on optimism about future profits.</p><p>The end of Fed bond-buying also forces the Treasury to sell more debt in the open market, potentially putting upward pressure on bond yields, which play a big role in how Wall Street values listed companies -- a headwind for so-called growth stocks in particular.</p><p>Fueled by pandemic-era policy easing, the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 Index climbed more than 130% from its March 2020 low before plunging this year.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f7ffd1126ebffbf89f6dc39209992745\" tg-width=\"930\" tg-height=\"523\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Meanwhile, cryptocurrencies have increasingly been driven by fluctuations in tech stocks. Since March 2020, there has been a strong positive correlation between Bitcoin and the Nasdaq 100, with the relationship intensifying in this year’s selloff.</p><p>The thinking goes that when money is cheap, traders can speculate about future digital trends en masse. But when the liquidity party fades, those bets become more costly.</p><p>“I don’t think people fully realize how much QE caused investors to add a lot of leverage to their positions,” said Matt Maley, chief market strategist for Miller Tabak + Co. “Now that we’re going through QT, that leverage has to be unwound.”</p><p>Respondents who were active in the market during the financial crisis more than a decade ago are particularly concerned that the Fed’s balance-sheet shrinkage will hurt junk bonds. Newer entrants are more inclined to worry about its impact on crypto and tech shares.</p><h3><b>Which Asset Class is Most Vulnerable to QT?</b></h3><p>Old hands are more worried about junk bonds, while newbies fret more about tech and crypto</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d465c6ad17f3f4d3cd3b861c4dade6c5\" tg-width=\"956\" tg-height=\"245\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Source: MLIV Pulse survey running May 31 to June 3, Respondents were asked 'Which asset class remains most vulnerable to quantitative tightening?

Nearly 53% said they’re concerned markets are underestimating the liquidity importance of central banks outside the US.</p><p>Only 8% described QT in general as overhyped. Yet the principal concern of MLIV readers remains how far the US central bank will lift benchmark borrowing costs in this cycle. Some 61% said the level at which the terminal fed funds rate peaks is more important than the amount by which the balance sheet shrinks.</p><p>As for QT’s end game, around two thirds say the primary catalyst is more likely to emerge from negative developments than victory on the inflation front. Some 38% said economic pain would prompt an end to the balance-sheet rundown, while 20% pointed to market turmoil.</p><p>Just 10% voted for problems related to bank reserves and short-term funding markets. That’s an implicit vote of confidence in the measures the Fed has taken to avert logjams in the financial plumbing that caused it to intervene in 2019 during its previous tightening program.</p><h3><b>Generational Split</b></h3><p>Overwhelming majority of respondents active in the market during the global financial crisis say the 40-year bond bull run is over</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d1fe67903ba7337640e981bb6453bd0\" tg-width=\"941\" tg-height=\"231\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>For many, the era of ultra-low rates and big central bank balance sheets is all they’ve known professionally. Some 46% of MLIV respondentsweren’t active in marketsbefore the widespread global adoption of quantitative easing in the aftermath of 2008.</p><p>Fewer still rode the early long-dated Treasury bull market in the decades past. A strong majority of readers -- 64% -- say the four-decade bullish stretch has finally ended, with experienced market players notably more hawkish than younger counterparts.</p><p>“Whenever you’re seeing major shifts in liquidity, there’s potential you could see some disruption in the market and that could trigger some violent trading behavior,” said Ed Moya, senior market analyst at Oanda.</p><ul><li>For more markets analysis, see the MLIV blog.
