It seems ā€œobviousā€ that the market is going to crash, right? Yet, look around, everyone has jobs and 2-3 percent mortgages. For the short term (through April), Iā€™d be bullish. Historically in May you go away, so you can consider a different strategy at that point; however, pulling out entirely will be a mistake. There will be money to be made in certain sectors. We havenā€™t fully felt the effects of interest rate hikes yet, so plan on those fun times in Q3 and Q4 of this year. Again though, be in the right sectors for when/if something like that happened. If you are long, who cares? Just roll. Keep buying and buying and buying.

Crash is always six months away. But everyone has a job. Those at the bottom of the income ladder have gained the most, and they just pump money into the system. Spring break travel is higher than last year. This is the first year without a variant or some other covid issue, so still pent up demand, going back to the office, etc. Interest rates haven't changed debt service for fixed rate mortgage holders. But would I want to own empty office buildings? Hold floating rate debt? Buy my wife's boyfriend a house? Not in 6 months, no.

One thing I've noticed is that the internet, especially Reddit and tiktok, have become hostile to any young person not toeing the party line that they're suffering. Part of it was a collective effort to make the case for student loan forgiveness, but it seems like it's gone further than that now.

I'm not saying that nobody is suffering, just that anecdotes are especially unreliable if there's a game element to it.

Interesting to see someone bring this up, but yeah it's fuckin gross. Everyone in my generation is a whiny antiwork bitch crying for institutions to save them and living off their OnlyFans and I'm just over here making money pressing buttons in my basement a couple times a day.

Some people even have 3! We have so much employment companies are posting positions that only Bigfoot riding on the back of a unicorn smoking Dracula's pubes can fill.

I agree, this feels very similar to March '08 but with $1.5Q in global all sector debt derivatives, $400T of which have been created in the last 4 years. There's going to be bank to made when the government turns the printing press on for reals this time, not like that piddling 2020 shit.

Intellect_Invest t1_jdju4x0 wrote

Iā€™ve learned through the years that trading against sentiment can be pretty profitable. When EVERYONE is super bearish, sometimes market makers are forced to purchase the underlying as a form of risk management against a large influx of puts being purchased, which can drive up prices. And then anyone thatā€™s short get squeezed and is forced to buy back the underlying, further driving up prices. Additionally, most of the time all things considered are already priced in. Markets are a forward looking machine, generally looking 6-9 months into the future. GLHF

VisualMod t1_jdjq6g6 wrote

>There are a few key variables that you're missing in your analysis. First, the Federal Reserve is not trying to fix the banking system with interest rate hikes ā€“ they are trying to slow down inflationary pressures by raising rates. Second, while banks may be seeing unrealized losses on their portfolios, this does not necessarily mean that they are insolvent or unable to support withdrawals. And finally, while markets may be "primed for a bull run," it's important to remember that past performance is no guarantee of future results. So there's no guarantee that just because markets have been doing well recently, they will continue to do so in the future.

teuphilde t1_jdk5o71 wrote

You might be absolutly right but what do you do with the money. Its value decreases at 10% so actually having a slice of a company makes total sense cause even if it cannot forward 100% it might be able to rise prices by 8% for instance so beeing better of in the future. Furthermore money needs to go somewhere. Its raising interest rates and printing money at the same time that holds the markets stable.

And furthermore beeing so dump like SVB, yeah there will be a few other banks but normally banks buy swaps to protect against changes in rates and banks get money from the FED for their deposits for which they do not pay high interest rates in most cases.

Negative value of bonds and so forth is just transitory so they will get paid back. FED just needs to give money until that is overcome than everything will be fine. (And find a way to take back the money when banks have survived)

Lifes good have a great Friday evening.

As long as rates keep increasing we will see the market drop. I dont think we can expect much more of a drop in earnings with another .25 raise and ive heard that might be all we need, so this could be near the bottom. Id imagine that for some companies it is the bottom, companies making money in this time is already outpacing the market even if the their price isnt reflective of that. Just buy good companies.

Entire business models run on the fact that weā€™ve had low interest rates for over a decade. We are only seeing the tip of the iceberg on how this new environment will affect the economy. I think the rest of the year and the next will be full of ping-ponging between hope and fear. The market will chop around

TraderBoy t1_jdk6d87 wrote

the market expects rate cuts of .5% by eoy fyi. simply said they donā€™t believe the fed and think the fed does a lot of tough talking to anchor low inflation expectation. inflation will drop to 3% by July. that is already pretty certain. it could possibly underperform even more.

JammyTodgers t1_jdk6r4e wrote

ill take a stab

  1. qt has been reversed
  2. despite crazy amounts of QE inflation adjusted the S&P 500 is not that much higher than pre covid levels
  3. there is no hard and fast reason why the fed will not implicitly accept a higher base line inflation rate if it is strategically expedient
  4. whilst its impossible to say whats on banks' balance sheets, the lack of global fallout from the CS shitshow is telling, large US banks still think their deposits are sticky
  5. ever since 2008, 2008 v 2 has been around the corner, ironically, 2008 v 2 is unlikely to happen until people forget about 2008

fundamentally if the USD moves towards a higher inflation tolerance regime we might see a systemic change in valuation considerations.

I saw some guy in another thread explain the phantom bullishness that seems to pervade the market even during shit like this. The gist of it was that the market is not a measure of the economy, but of institutional degeneracy and greed (or something like that but said much more intelligently). We'll keep going up because everyone wants to and market makers love making money. It makes a lot of sense when you think of it that way and I'm even going back on being a šŸŒˆšŸ» a little. Just until I close this put...
