Payrolls, Another 10-year Yield High, Bait & Switch Shot
 PREVIEW
by davefairtex

While concerns mounts about increasing workforce disability and vaccine hesitancy ,the Nobel Prize’s role in combatting skepticism is questioned. Fed will now have to keep rates higher for longer and the 10-year yield at 16-year highs predicts that eventually a whole bunch of heavily-indebted companies are going to die – some of which will be hoovered up on the cheap by the Oligarchy.

Banking trouble is dead ahead. Also, how much of the “recession-resistant” spending we are seeing actually came from “early payouts” for the various life insurance policies for our vaxxed-and-disabled/deceased workforce?

As the “markets guy”, my job is to ask: “So what’s the trade?” Consider banks.  Given how shaky the banks are right now given the 500 bp move in yields that has caused all those “unrealized losses,” then add to that these banks most likely force-vaxxed their employees.  How do we think that might play out? But this won’t just hit the banks.   It will hit a wide range of corporates and ultimately confidence in government.

Oil busts a big move, but so do the narrative police. Their Mafia Tactics are seen everywhere, but the game only works because the Mafia pretends to be a democracy.  Once revealed, just about everyone will reject it, because most people aren’t sociopaths.  That is when it all falls apart.  That’s the Framing of the Week.

CPI inflation is on the way back, with oil apparently heading up towards triple-digits once again.  US field production is almost back to pre-pandemic levels, but commercial oil stocks have been dropping hard for the past month or so, and not by a little bit either.  Something is going on, I’m not sure what it is. There are also hints of another government shutdown.

There was a book I read, long ago, entitled “A Distant Mirror, The Calamitous 14th Century” (wiki:archive) by Barbara Tuchman. As I think back to this book and the vibe it gave me, this feels (emotionally) exactly like the period we are living through today – most especially the part about the stupidity of the ruling class.

There were just two reports this week among those I track, in addition to the banking stats: Durable Goods (DGORDER): -15B (-5.15% m/m); decline after a new all-time high. Median New Home Sale Price (MSPNHSUS): 437k +20k (+4.58% m/m); rebound after 12-month $80k decline. Bank Credit (TOTBKCR): +7B (+0.04% w/w); flat, deflationary. Fed Balance Sheet…

Advice: watch and wait.  Watch MSM (try to measure the shriek volume), and measure the Big Money moves too.  Big Money always moves in advance of events.  They always know.  They are probably the most reliable indicator – but the Biden-Handlers will probably be floating trial balloons along the way too.  Assuming this is the plan.

There are 8 billion monkeys, and the bosses are desperate to keep the monkeys dancing.  So they feel they have to keep killing more chickens to keep the monkeys in line.  The parable works with 1 boss and 1 monkey, but that’s not reality.  As this continues, the monkeys are slowly starting to figure out the game.  At some point, the monkeys will look around and realize just how many monkeys and just how few bosses there actually are.

 Prep Now for the Coming Winter Challenges
I’ve been doing a lot of thinking about the needs and sustainability of our family. We have six young children, our oldest just turned 12 and our youngest just turned 3 months old. I love the considerations that the article had above and thought I would add a few things that I have considered for our situation. My...
