YIKES Fed! *This Time is NOT Different* & Trump SHOCKER! | Bottom Line Report [E.12]
FULL TRANSCRIPT
oh smokes is it possible the Bond
vigilantes are back and what could that
mean for the real estate and stock
market this is a big deal we got to talk
about it in this video but also how much
was Donald Trump potentially going to
get paid not to run for president by Sam
bankman freed as some like to call him
Sam bankman fraudster well in this video
we're going to talk about exactly that
and more let's get into it first
yesterday we speculated that there was
wild and rampant Short Selling going on
in the treasury market and this has
happened historically as well and what
happens when you short the treasury
market is you drive yields up all you
have to know is when I say short
treasuries you think yields up we don't
have to get into the mechanics of that
but what does it mean when yields go up
it means interest rates for houses go up
and a lot of other things go up and
start to see some pain in the real
estate market and it's only been recent
I'll tell you some of the areas that
were hot in July are not now and some of
the areas that were Mega multiple offer
hot in August are less multiple offer
hot you're going from like 10 offers to
all of a sudden two we're seeing a
massive shift in the real estate market
and things are really finally reacting
to either a interest rates being higher
B the fact that the people who were
willing to buy with high interest rates
have potentially gone away and maybe
seasonality the fact that we're post uh
school starting all of those three
factors together mean that despite low
inventory you're starting to see some
pain in fact I don't know that in my
career I've been able to go to a home
seller and say hey we've been on the
market for 10 days and your $590,000
listing which should be worth based on
the comparable sales $590 to $600,000
that's what it should be worth and it's
listed at $590 and after 10 days it's
not selling I just saw a real estate
agent drop the price of this property by
$4,000 now who knows maybe they're
trying to go for multiples before winter
starts but this particular house is in
an area where you're expecting like a
big snowstorm to roll in or something
but it's a sign that people are a little
worried about what's to come this winter
and that's why we got to talk about
these Bond vigilantes now personally I
think that's an opportunity I think
eventually interest rates will go down
but but we'll have to look at this chart
to see is that definitely going to be
true we'll see what history says and is
that an opportunity maybe for my real
estate startup house hack maybe go learn
more about what I call the Vanguard of
real estate over at house hack.com and
read the offering circular for our
fundraise but look at this chart right
here this is mindblowing and then I got
to tell you about this Donald Trump
thing as well as some other things but
holy
smokes usually when the Federal Reserve
aggressively raises interest rates
that's the blue line right here right
the people with the money printer
usually when the FED aggressively raises
rates the Federal Reserve rate goes up
above the 10-year yield and then it
pushes inflation down or at least that's
the goal that was tried in the early
'70s it was tried in the mid '70s it was
tried in the early 80s but take a look
what happened after at the red lines
this is really interesting the B Bond
vigilantes came out at the Red Arrows I
apologize the Bond vigilantes came out
and you actually had spikes of the
10-year treasury well above the Federal
Reserve fed funds rate that happened
both in 84 and 94 and even though we did
slowly keep this trend of staying above
what the Fed rate is over here as you
can see the red lines just slowly been
kind of trending down and there are
other times it's been high as well like
over here it's worth noting these Spikes
have been associated with Bond
vigilantism bond vigilantism is when you
have investors institutions hedge fund
managers big dollar investors you know
the real Wall Street suits who got all
the dollar hollers say you know what we
are tired of a few things one Reckless
government spending number two the
potential for more inflation look at oil
prices I don't particular you think more
inflation is coming but this is just
some of the arguments that they're
making uh and quantitative tightening
which is basically the Federal Reserve
dumping treasuries on the market so if
they're dumping treasuries that lowers
the price why would you invest in bonds
and high alternative investment yields
like money market funds which yield a
lot of money so so why invest in
treasuries it doesn't make sense so then
you get what's called a bond vigilante
movement which is where institutions
come out and say you know what we're
going to short and dump all of our
treasuries maybe go short on them and
that ends up driving yields higher okay
why is that bad well it hurts everything
for longer it gives you potentially a
weaker economy going forward but wait or
does it while right now we have not
experienced that Bond vigilante ISM yet
on this chart the 10-year treasury is
still meaningfully below the FED funds
rate the FED funds rate is5 and a half%
10year treasuries are sitting at about
4.69% as of this morning clearly there's
still a gap here and maybe that Gap will
remain actually the 10-year treasury is
now at 4.71% it just keeps Rising every
time I refresh the page it just keeps
going up what's potentially happening is
a return to bond vigilantism again take
a shot every time I say this you'll
probably end up in the hospital so don't
end up doing that I'm going to stop
saying it now but anyway look at when
these instances occurred and there's
talk now that we could be back to seeing
this now why is it useful to identify
where it occurred and most importantly
where it didn't occur ready for this
look at where it didn't occur look at
the
2006 2007 recession era notice how we
did not have Bond well I'm not going to
say it again that activity right here
notice how you actually saw the 10year
never suddenly Peak substantially and
well above the federal funds rate and
then we slid into a dark and dirty
recession the Great Recession notice
what didn't happen after the last two
times we've seen this Spike
84 and 94 well it should be obvious
remember the gray bars symbolize a
recession what did did we not get during
those periods well we didn't get a
recession something else that's worth
looking at is that real GDP which is GDP
minus inflation that's the number you
should be looking at didn't meaningfully
shift during the time of BV or this sort
of bond market movement instead you had
relatively stable GDP here in 94 for
what you could say is stable you did
come off of some higher GDP in 83 but in
84 you really just went to this
normalization of GDP because you were
coming out of a hole from 82's recession
now look we haven't gone to massively
positive 10-year yields yet but my point
of this is arguing that it's possible
that higher for longer could also mean
the Federal Reserve might reduce their
federal funds rate from 5'5 to say 4.5 5
and the 10e could then be positive at
4.7 5% 5 and a qu% whatever and you go
back to that sort of vigilante ISM oh I
said it again but what happens you
actually are just like in 84 94 part of
a soft Landing recovery Market oh I said
it I said it see people always like
Kevin the most dangerous words in
investing or this time is different okay
but maybe this time actually isn't
different it's literally just like 84
and 94 which both of those years were
guess what coming out of recessions
coming out of the 82 inflation fight
coming out of the 91 crash both of them
were coming out of recessions how
interesting just like Donald Trump
potentially being offered billions of
dollars is interesting look at this oh
and then I got to tell you something
about Tesla boy I pissed some people off
with Tesla yesterday you know what hold
on a second let's wait on the uh Sam
bankman fraud and uh Donald T thing here
we got to look at Tesla for a moment
some people got massively pissed off at
me they're like Kevin how could you say
that Tesla stock has been flat for
basically 3
years okay first of all we're talking
about the stock market
nobody's here to tell you that the stock
is literally just doing this for 3 years
okay what I was at roughly 3 years ago
33 months ago to be precise which is
December to January 2020 to 2021 Tesla
was trading for about the same valuation
that it is now now notice I said
valuation that's because there are a lot
of people like but cabin there the worst
stock splits it's like okay sometimes I
really like people like Kevin you sell
courses on building your wealth how do
you know you're going to actually be
able to help people and I say just read
the
comments just read the comments people
need help okay the chart's inflation or
the chart is already split adjusted it's
not that hard it's already split
adjusted if we're trading for $250 now
and we move the mouse over to December
and January over here of 2020 and 2021
you're basically at the same level where
you are now go out to the day basis and
maybe it makes it a little bit more
clear again yes has there been
volatility in Tesla stock of course
nobody's saying there hasn't been but
look at this hump over here inflation or
split adjusted we're at
$300 in January January 6th 2021 j6
folks Tesla closes for
253 that's 33 months ago okay it's not
great and obviously the Cyber truck
still hasn't gotten delivered we've been
waiting for that supposed to happen in
Q3 nope not yet but hey you know what at
least we can read about s bankman freed
apparently wanted to pay Donald Trump $5
billion according to his biographer $5
billion
to get Donald Trump not to run s bank
mfried obviously a massive fraudster of
FTX apparently donated up to $40 million
to Democrats and says he secretly
donated to Republicans because the best
way to get advertising was donating
publicly to Democrats and privately to
Republicans now we got to talk about the
Federal Reserve lag but before we do

meetkevin.com Milton Friedman made the
term long invariable lags famous
everyone involved in the economy has
been struggling with the question of
what is the lag of Federal Reserve
policy and conventional wisdom says it's
3 to 6 months but what we have here is a
piece that talks about why is it taking
so long for the pain of high interest
rates from the FED to kick in and here's
what we've got the smartness of smart
money is actually potentially increasing
the lag time for monetary policy now why
is that well that's potentially because
corporate borrowers as we've talked
about previously are able to milk a ton
of money off of higher money market
rates compared to actually being
squeezed by higher interest rates
because they have so much cash but not
only do they have so much cash because
they financed a lot of debt at very low
interest rates the current average
coupon yield on bonds it's just
basically a way of saying how much are
these companies paying for Bond debt is
2.9% it's barely creeping up over 3%
this is while the FED is sitting at 5
and a/4 to 5 1/2% almost 60% of the time
before July 2020 so right after Co
almost 60% of the time before that the
the average rate that companies had paid
was above 4% that's the historical level
being above 4% and the reality is it's
not just corporations but it's also
homeowners locking in with 30-year fixed
rate mortgages those incredibly
inexpensive mortgage rate on top of that
when yields were low institutional
borrowers actually extended their terms
which meant not only did they lock in
lower rates but they did so for for even
longer therefore this author argues that
the Federal Reserve should be very
cautious about raising rates even
further because the impact has only
begun to be felt and I think that's
where we're starting to see some of the
break and pain in real estate that could
end up leading to a worse winter this
cycle than we had last winter we'll see
but we're lining up for patient and
great opportunities at my real estate
