The Fed Really Doesn’t Know What It’s Doing

(11/3/22) After an initial surge following Wednesday's Fed Meeting, markets took a dive with Fed Chairman Powell's hawkish remarks that inflation has not yet abated, and more rate hikes are to come. The result was The Most Volatile 90-Minutes in Market History; there was nothing good in Powell's comments, and with lots of cash held by managers that needs to be put to work before year's end, tumultuous times are to come. Twitter is set to fire half of its employees on Friday, a consequence of going private and needing to become profitable quickly. Mattress Mack places another bet ($10-million) on the Houston Astros winning the World Series. Jerome Powell holds the line until something breaks, and then he'll "fix" it with the same tools as last time. Looking for new Godzilla movie; Rents is a driver of inflation; Powell has gotten it wrong every time, with CPI and PCE favored metrics; Powell is missing the turn in the data. Remember, the Fed doesn't know what it's doing. Markets are re-calibrating post-rate hike; where are Dollar, VIX, and Bonds going? Numbers to watch: Jobless Claims: How accurate will they be?
