Every Fed meeting promises to be consequential, but today\u2019s comes amid one of the most turbulent times in recent memory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sure, the emergency meeting in early March 2020 and the regularly scheduled meeting two weeks later came amidst the worst of the Covid crisis.&nbsp; But what needed to be done was clear.&nbsp; The economy was seizing up as the pandemic raged, so it was evident that they needed to add liquidity.&nbsp; The question was how much, and even then it took them two tries to stabilize reeling markets.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even though the current situation is not quite as dire today, it is far more challenging.&nbsp; The Fed will be almost assuredly be raising its target rate in the midst of a bear market in stocks.&nbsp; It\u2019s not clear what the definition of a bond bear market is, but I would venture to say that a 75 basis point rise in 2-year Treasury note yields in a little over a week certainly would count as quite bearish.&nbsp; This is the type of environment that normally leads to accommodative, not restrictive, policies from central banks.&nbsp; But then again, little is normal about the current economic environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Fed was trying desperately to be cautious and measured in their efforts to remove their post-Covid accommodation from a potentially over-stimulated economy.&nbsp; Previous attempts to tighten policy were accompanied by financial stresses, so it is understandable why they wanted to be particularly careful; telegraphing rate hikes and balance sheet reduction well in advance, and moving slowly once those policies were implemented.&nbsp; (Bear in mind that today is the first maturing bond on the Fed\u2019s balance sheet whose proceeds are not being reinvested \u2013 in other words QT only started today.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then they were overtaken by events.&nbsp; Inflationary pressures were building even before the world received an exogenous economic shock from Russia\u2019s invasion of Ukraine.&nbsp; They initially tried to slough off rising prices as being \u201ctransitory.\u201d&nbsp; That cost them time to deal with rising prices when they were evident but not acute.&nbsp; Instead, inflation is now running at 40 year highs, making it a primary concern for citizens around the world.&nbsp; Inflation at its core is too much money chasing too few goods.&nbsp; Even though much of the price pressure comes from supply shocks that central banks are not well-positioned to address, it is hard to dispute the role that fiscal and monetary stimuli played in pushing prices higher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Federal Reserve\u2019s dual mandate is for stable prices and full employment.&nbsp; It was frustrating to see the Fed offering little besides rhetoric and guidance as prices were rising at the same time we seemed to be meeting the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bls.gov\/opub\/mlr\/2017\/article\/full-employment-an-assumption-within-bls-projections.htm#:~:text=BLS%20defines%20full%20employment%20as%20an%20economy%20in,full%20capacity%20and%20utilizing%20all%20of%20its%20resources.\">Bureau of Labor Statistics\u2019 definition<\/a> of full employment.&nbsp; Now they find themselves with solid employment, though cracks may be showing, prices spiraling higher, and only now beginning to implement more stringent measures.&nbsp; A good portion of the recent declines in asset prices can be attributed to Fed inaction and their delay in addressing crises that were evident to investors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here is another wrinkle \u2013 it is possible that hindsight will show that the Fed raised rates during a recession.&nbsp; The definition of a recession is two consecutive quarters of negative GDP growth.&nbsp; <a href=\"Chttps:\/\/www.bea.gov\/news\/2022\/gross-domestic-product-second-estimate-and-corporate-profits-preliminary-first-quarter\">GDP fell 1.5% in the first quarter of this year<\/a>, and the most recent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.atlantafed.org\/cqer\/research\/gdpnow\">Atlanta Fed\u2019s GDPNow forecast<\/a> shows a mere 0.9% rise for the coming quarter.&nbsp; That statistic was last updated on June 8<sup>th<\/sup> \u2013 prior to the 40-year high CPI and record low University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment reports that were <a href=\"\/campus\/traders-insight\/securities\/macro\/consumers-are-miserable\/\">released on Friday the 10<sup>th<\/sup><\/a>.&nbsp;&nbsp; It is entirely possible that if consumers slam their wallets tight enough that they could tip that estimate into negative territory (the next release is scheduled for later today).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I have frequently referred to Chairman Powell as \u201cGolidlocks in a Suit\u201d for his remarkable ability to offer opinions that are \u201cjust right\u201d for those trying to interpret post-FOMC press conferences.&nbsp; Sure, <a href=\"\/campus\/traders-insight\/securities\/macro\/goldilocks-or-kobe-bryant\/\">I called him \u201cKobe Bryant\u201d<\/a> after the last meeting when stocks zoomed 3% during and after the press conference only to give those gains back in the next two sessions.&nbsp; Now we come in with heavily oversold markets that are desperate for good news, but with an unusual amount of uncertainty about the level of rate hikes and other measures.&nbsp; We know that the Fed is in a very difficult situation, one that will require particular aplomb to wriggle out from.&nbsp; We will see today if Mr. Powell can use his Goldilocks skill to pull a Houdini-like escape.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Markets are nervously awaiting the results of the latest FOMC meeting at 2PM Eastern Time today and the subsequent press conference with Chairman Powell.
