maybe it stems from a recent kayak trip through part of Chesapeake Bay.\u00a0\u00a0 We\u2019ve recently discussed <a href=\"\/campus\/traders-insight\/securities\/macro\/beware-of-cross-currents-and-rip-tides\/\">cross currents<\/a>, rip currents and rip tides.\u00a0 During a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/video\/2021\/09\/30\/markets-take-another-spill-into-septembers-close.html?&amp;qsearchterm=sosnick\">TV appearance yesterday<\/a>, I invoked <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/amp\/s\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/petertchir\/2020\/05\/04\/what-if-buffett-is-the-one-swimming-naked\/amp\/\">Warren Buffett\u2019s<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.brainyquote.com\/quotes\/warren_buffett_383933\"> idea<\/a> that you don\u2019t know who\u2019s swimming naked until the tide goes out.\u00a0 Maybe it\u2019s a lack of imagination, but I can\u2019t think of a better way to visualize the changing trends in monetary policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Water flows, and so does money \u2013 liquidity is a term that can be applied to both.&nbsp; Analogizing them seems straightforward.&nbsp; The enormous liquidity unleashed by the Federal Reserve through its zero interest rate policy (ZIRP) and quantitative easing (QE) indeed felt like a giant wave of money.&nbsp; The periodic deposits of stimulus money into the bank accounts of millions of citizens were like swells amidst the already rising tide.&nbsp; We can debate whether these moves were designed to lift asset prices, but that tide lifted stocks both large and small \u2013 like battleships and canoes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After nearly 18 months of relentless monetary stimulus, the meteorologists at the Fed are now telling us to expect the tide to peak in the coming weeks.\u00a0 We\u2019re talking metaphorically of course, but the most recent statement from the Fed\u2019s Open Market Committee (FOMC) told us that \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.federalreserve.gov\/newsevents\/pressreleases\/monetary20210922a.htm\">a moderation in the pace of asset purchases may soon be warranted<\/a>.\u201d\u00a0 Various Fed-watchers have asserted that \u201csoon\u201d is likely to mean \u201cnext meeting\u201d in Fed-speak.\u00a0 Markets seemed encouraged by that concept initially.\u00a0 We noted yesterday that the third quarter\u2019s low yield in 30-year bonds was on September 22<sup>nd<\/sup>.\u00a0 It is little coincidence that was the date of the FOMC announcement.\u00a0 With the imminent departure of an institution reliably buying $120 billion of bonds per month \u2013 a price insensitive buyer, at that \u2013 is it any wonder that 30-year yields have risen about 20 basis points in the weeks since?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One could argue that the Fed could have begun tapering even sooner.&nbsp; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkfed.org\/markets\/desk-operations\/reverse-repo\">Daily reverse repo activity<\/a> at the New York Federal Reserve has been setting new records for months.&nbsp; It reached a new peak of over $1.6 <em>trillion <\/em>yesterday.&nbsp; While it is not unusual to see repo and\/or reverse repo activity peak at the end of a quarter as banks manage their books for reporting purposes, the quarterly reverse repo peaks have typically been less than 1\/3 of yesterday\u2019s figure.&nbsp; Reverse repos are designed to \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkfed.org\/markets\/domestic-market-operations\/monetary-policy-implementation\/repo-reverse-repo-agreements\">temporarily reduce the supply of reserve balances in the banking system<\/a>.\u201d&nbsp; Yet one should question whether that measure is truly temporary if it persists and grows at a daily basis for months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Fed pays 5 basis points on its reverse repos.&nbsp; Yesterday\u2019s activity told us that banks and other financial institutions had over $1.6 trillion in cash that they otherwise could not invest for more than 5 basis points.&nbsp; Remember that the pace of QE is $120 billion per month.&nbsp; That means that over a year\u2019s worth of QE showed up at the New York Fed\u2019s window looking for a measly overnight return.&nbsp; This is the monetary equivalent of filling a pool with a hose at one end and pumping it out at the other.&nbsp; That seems like a pointless activity, doesn\u2019t it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yet it does not appear that investors are racing to buy flood insurance.&nbsp; Despite the recent declines in major indices like the S&amp;P 500 (SPX), futures on the CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) are elevated but not inverted, as shown by the chart below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-vix-futures-curves-today-green-1-week-ago-orange-1-month-ago-white\"><strong>VIX Futures Curves, Today (green), 1 Week Ago (orange), 1 Month Ago (white)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1065\" height=\"805\" data-src=\"\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/VIX-curves.png\" alt=\"VIX Futures Curves, Today (green), 1 Week Ago (orange), 1 Month Ago (white)\" class=\"wp-image-105340 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/VIX-curves.png 1065w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/VIX-curves-700x529.png 700w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/VIX-curves-300x227.png 300w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/VIX-curves-768x581.png 768w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1065px) 100vw, 1065px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1065px;

Yet the curve remains upward sloping (\u201cin contango\u201d).&nbsp; When futures are in contango, it usually indicates a normal supply\/demand balance.&nbsp; Panicky markets are usually accompanied by an inverted VIX futures curve (\u201cbackwardation\u201d).&nbsp; That would indicate a shortage, in this case a shortage of available volatility protection.&nbsp; We simply don\u2019t see that sort of panic at the moment, despite some sharp dips in major indices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Flood insurance can be expensive and difficult to purchase.&nbsp; As of now, insurance against the changing tide of liquidity is pricier than it was recently, but not particularly difficult to obtain.&nbsp; Those investors who are living in the market\u2019s tidal zone might consider whether to insure the properties they have built.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Water flows, and so does money \u2013 liquidity is a term that can be applied to both.
