🇬🇧 UK May Inflation Soars
Headline (+8.7% YoY) and core (+7.1% YoY) beat consensus expectations by +0.3ppt.
As a result, the May MPR forecasts are looking very stale.

The +0.7% MoM core reading, while not so extreme as the Apr level, presented a continued strong beat of typical monthly values.
Since Feb, core inflation has shown only very small signs of returning towards the 2% target. The BoE will need to be done to counter it.
Since Feb, core inflation has shown only very small signs of returning towards the 2% target. The BoE will need to be done to counter it.
Inflation remained very broad: 10/12 sectors beat their typical monthly rate.
Big beats came in Clothing, Comms & Rec. The re-acceleration in restaurants is also a concern
If anything, this is more worrying to the BoE than the surprise jumps in Apr.

Thread on Japan
1/ Let me simplify the issues facing Japan #BOJ & why I believe people need to be paying attention: these are rough estimates:
*Japan's debt > $10 Trillion (in US terms) of which BOJ owns 40%+
*Japan Debt/GDP is >2.5x(largest of any developed nation)

As the #FED has increased the policy rate by 25 bp at the latest meeting, recent situation for #FederalFundsRate and #inflation are as below.
Following the #BOE, today the #ECB also has increased the policy rate by 50 bp. Recent situation for #PolicyRate and #inflation are as below.
UK #recession risk rises as flash #PMI falls deeper into contraction in January amid worsening service sector economy and ongoing manufacturing decline. More at bit.ly/3WzVTev
Survey highlights how headwinds are driving UK economic activity lower, though price pressures are thankfully cooling - albeit remaining elevated
Survey data also highlight how the #BoE policy tightening is having an impact. More rates hikes to come amid reduced government help to households and businesses will undoubtedly add to recession risks.
1/ A few market thoughts and updated thoughts on $TSLA from a behavioral finance POV; #BOE #BOJ interventions are proving to be short-lived as the British 10yr Gilt (yields higher) and the $JPY (weaker) have both breached levels where intervention was announced/executed
2/ faith in Global Central Banks continues to wane as investors begin to underwrite these Banks as credits rather than limitless piggy banks; this "looking under the hood" leads me to one of my favorite topics, $TSLA, which has really never traded on fundamentals..but first
3/ in 2000, I remember watching the stocks of the tech bubble's greatest hits ( $JDSU Lucent, Nortel etc) no longer reacting to the same type of news that kept driving these stocks higher: "contract wins" "new product launches" "accretive acquisitions" etc.; it was a sign that

1. After making reversal at H/S neckline in early Aug, US 10Y Yield #bond broke out from Feb'11 high 3.73% and have held up strongly for about a week. This month, yield has gone up +20%, bad for risk and long duration assets

A bit of myth busting... the #BoE hasn't spent £65 billion to prop up the economy / bail out pension funds / save #KwasiKwarteng (or any variation)...
Instead, it has said it will buy gilts in 13 daily auctions, with a limit of £5bn each day.
Today it did just £22 *million*...

Today it did just £22 *million*...
The aim of this policy is to cap gilt yields by signalling that the Bank will act as the buyer of last resort to prevent forced sales by pension funds from driving yields even higher.
If this signal is credible, the Bank will not actually have to buy anywhere near £65 billion.,,
If this signal is credible, the Bank will not actually have to buy anywhere near £65 billion.,,
The fact that it bought just £22 million today can also be seen as a sign that it is more comfortable with where yields are now. (Longer dated yields have fallen to around 4%.)
Note also that offers to sell today amounted to less than £2bn - a sign that the panic is easing.

as bearish & prepared as we were at FrontPoint in 2006 we were shocked at the depths/reach/contagion of the financial crisis; not nearly as shocked as the regulators/govt but shocked how little they understood about the leverage in the system and how caught off guard they were

the programs the #FED/Treasury threw at the crisis (TALF/TARP/PPIP/QE/short bans) stopped the bleeding but prevented assets from clearing at free market (natural) prices & created the moral hazard that has led us to this moment, with QE2 (2010)/QE3 (2012) adding more fuel

By "into pain", they are primarily referring to their dual mandate of price stability (#inflation) and maximum #Employment.
But there is not much pain showing up in the job market.
Last weekly jobless claims hit a 5-month low.

So to summarize, #TheFed has 2 jobs:
1. Reduce #inflation (not done)
2. Maximize #employment (done)
And they've been adamant about raising #rates until 1. is done, even at temporary setbacks to 2.
Unless they plan on pulling a #BoE, anything short of #75bps/#100bps is hopium.

Alkuun on hyvä ymmärtää, että inflaatio on ollut Englannissa monia muita alueita korkeampaa (vuodentakaisesta 9,9%). Energiakriisi on iskenyt kovaa saarivaltioon.
Hillitäkseen inflaatiota, keskuspankki (Bank of England, BoE) on nostanut korkoja muuta euroaluetta nopeammin.

Kun korkoja nostetaan keskuspankin toimesta, velkakirjojen hinta markkinalla laskee.
Ilmiö on sama kuin jos vakaata osinkoa maksavan yhtiön hinta laskee – sen osinkoprosentti (omistajan saama ”korko”) nousee.

Did the #BoE step in to prevent pension funds from going insolvent? A thread (1/8)
It is very rare that pension schemes themselves go bust. It could be that their deficit is so high that it bancrupts the sponsor, liabilities then would be transferred to the Pension Protection Fund. (2/8)
The irony, and perhaps a real risk is that the PPF has a very significant #LDI strategy, so they will be under a lot of stress too. (3/8)
Reflections on the morning after - and especially the markets… 🧵
It may well take some time for the dust to settle on #KwasiKwarteng’s first #Budget (yes, 'Budget’: if it looks like a duck, walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, then it’s fair to call it a duck)...

The initial reaction from most economic commentators and in the financial markets has been a loud boo! There are some things I would have done differently. But the overall strategy is sound, and sentiment should recover as the economic benefits become clearer...
There are two aspects I particularly liked. One is the emphasis on breaking the ‘doom loop’ of weak economic growth and rising taxes, both with tax cuts and – at least as importantly – structural reforms on the supply-side...
Expect lots of warnings today from #TeamRishi about the cost of higher interest rates as the Bank of England (#BoE) hikes.
Three counters...
1. The #tax cuts proposed by #LizTruss are unlikely to have any significant impact on #inflation (they could even help to reduce it)...

2. It's #TeamRishi that's playing at 'fairytale economics' if they think the current ultra-low level of interest rates is normal, healthy or sustainable (most economists agree that fiscal policy is too tight - largely due to #Rishi's tax hikes - and monetary policy is too loose)
3. It is at least right to worry that rising short-term interest rates will add to the cost of public debt. But this simply strengthens the case for the government to lengthen the maturity of borrowing to lock in low rates - as #LizTruss has proposed!

Three key points:
1. The Treasury would have had to order the #BoE to force commercial banks to swap reserves for gilts - not a good look...

2, The Treasury would have had to get the timing just right to save £11 billion, and done so while issuing huge amounts of new gilts without disrupting the market, or influencing interest rate expectations. Not realistic.

Looking further out, the average maturity of UK gov't debt is already relatively long - for which the DMO deserves more credit.
