Up \u2013 The FOMC is No Longer in Neutral"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For those who have been blissfully out of contact for a while, we are bracing for another FOMC announcement and Chair Powell press conference this afternoon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The last conference proved to be the trigger for a rally.&nbsp; In response to a question, Mr. Powell stated that he thought that the now-current 2.25%-2.50% Fed Funds target was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.federalreserve.gov\/mediacenter\/files\/FOMCpresconf20220727.pdf\">in the range of neutral<\/a>.&nbsp; Traders eager for good news seized upon that comment, ignoring the rest of the answer to that question, when he said that rates would be <a href=\"\/campus\/traders-insight\/securities\/stocks\/history-doesnt-repeat-but-it-often-rhymes\/\">heading into restrictive territory<\/a>.&nbsp; Since then, the Chairman has made it <a href=\"\/campus\/traders-insight\/securities\/macro\/goldilocks-stop-doubting-my-resolve-to-cool-the-porridge\/\">crystal clear<\/a> that the Fed is determined to fight inflation even if further restrictive policies are detrimental to economic growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Heading into today\u2019s 2PM EDT announcement, expectations are firmly for a 75-basis point hike.&nbsp; While Fed Funds futures are still showing a 19% chance of a full 1% hike, it means the market anticipates a far greater likelihood for a 75bp move.&nbsp; I stand by <a href=\"\/campus\/traders-insight\/securities\/macro\/is-100-the-new-50\/\">my previously stated opinion<\/a> that while the Fed is committed to showing monetary resolve, they don\u2019t want to spook the markets with an even larger hike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We head into the meeting with 2-Year yields flirting with 4%.&nbsp; That is nearly a full percentage point higher than the period around the last meeting.&nbsp; After a downward move of such magnitude, I will be looking to the bond market for post-meeting clues.&nbsp; There is certainly room for an oversold bounce in fixed income.&nbsp; That said, the bond market sent messages after the last meeting that were being widely ignored just a week later, <a href=\"\/campus\/traders-insight\/securities\/macro\/the-bond-market-is-sending-a-message-that-stocks-ignore\/\">as we noted at the time<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ahead of prior meetings, we noted the changing pattern of market responses to FOMC meetings.&nbsp; We tended to focus on the three-day period encompassing the meeting and the subsequent two days.&nbsp; That is usually Wednesday \u2013 Friday and can include quarterly expirations.&nbsp; It is my belief that that the initial move is dominated by traders, but investors need a day or two to fully discount the messages.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That said, I\u2019m a trader by nature, so it seemed silly to ignore the meeting day itself.&nbsp; A post-FOMC mantra that my colleagues tired of was \u201cthe first move is often the wrong move.\u201d&nbsp; That can be particularly true right around the release of the FOMC statement; liquidity is thin and small orders can cause a disproportionate move.&nbsp; But the same can be true for the first day move versus the subsequent two days.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Note that the S&amp;P 500 Index (SPX) rose on 5 of the past 6 FOMC days, and the 5<sup>th<\/sup> was a very modest decline.&nbsp; Yet that initial move was reversed in the ensuing two day in 4 of those 6 periods as shown in the table below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"686\" height=\"596\" data-src=\"\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/09\/Picture1-9.png\"

\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Source: Interactive Brokers<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My interpretation is this: markets tend to buy the rumor of the FOMC meeting and sell the news \u2013 and vice versa.&nbsp; When the Fed was busily adding liquidity into the markets during the post-Covid bull market, stocks tended to sell off.&nbsp; Investors were over-enthused about what the Fed might do.&nbsp; Since the Fed changed its rhetoric in late 2021, investors were appreciative that the Fed was not as restrictive as feared.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The path of least resistance for today is a knee-jerk rally in stocks and bonds.&nbsp; If nothing else, markets should appreciate if worries about a 1% hike are taken off the table.&nbsp; After the initial move, we will need to see which version of Chairman Powell shows up to the press conference, <a
