CRITICAL Investor Video | Watch BEFORE Wednesday
FULL TRANSCRIPT
oh hey everyone meet kevin here today
we've got to talk about the federal
reserve and well projections for what
the hell is about to happen on wednesday
and folks preview i don't think it's
going to be good that's because the
federal reserve has a few big problems
to solve and i'm not just talking about
inflation i'm talking about the
differences in what's known as the
summary of economic projections this
federal reserve meeting is going to be
different in that we actually get a
summary of economic projections which we
don't get in every single federal
reserve meeting the last time we had one
was in march and before that we had one
in december which means we missed
january and may for these these
particular meetings are especially
important because what they are is a
projection of the board members opinions
on where the unemployment rate will be
where the recession potentials will be
where inflation will be and a lot of
these things have changed since march so
let's talk about these things first
from march or in the uh the march
release the one that came out on march
16th the federal reserve uh blew us away
with their gdp projection the market was
expecting a three and a half percent gdp
read they actually came in with 2.8
percent that was a shock and we saw a
little bit of pain at the moment when
that scp report came out uh and so
what's fascinating here is
i don't think anybody thinks gdp is
going to be between 2.8 percent for 2022
and 2 and 2.2 percent for 2023
the reason is
we're thinking there might be a
recession
recession would mean the sap gdp should
show some form of gdp closer to zero and
if we go negative then we see a
recession now the cool thing about the
scp is we actually get a range of what
all the different folks on the federal
open market committee think for the
recession potential
last time the gdp range for 2022 was
anywhere between 2.1 to an optimistic
3.3
if now imagine this flips and the ranges
of gdp projection are like
2022 anywhere between 0.5 to 1.5 percent
huge revision down and then 2023
potentially the ranges are negative 0.4
to 1
the market's going to freak about that
gdp change in direction really big
problem now there's a second problem
here though and we got to get to talking
about inflation and unemployment and the
fed funds terminal rate but here's the
thing that you really got to think about
okay
and folks it has to do with the fed's
credibility this is so freaking critical
because back in the 70s and this is what
was different in the 70s was that
inflation was high for six to 10 years
it was over five percent for six to ten
years and the fed's like don't worry we
may have left the gold standard but
don't worry uh the inflation's
transitory don't worry we'll get it down
with just nominally higher federal funds
rates well what ended up having to
happen we ended up having to get paul
volkered that's because the fed lost so
much credibility nobody actually thought
inflation was going to go down when
people don't believe that inflation is
going to go down they demand more pay
and they buy more stuff now which
actually self-fulfills more inflation
that's bad the fed has to have
credibility which they do to some degree
today but they're losing it you compare
the fed to the rest of the world the
united states dollar is the strongest
it's rising substantially over the past
few weeks especially if you compare it
against like the japanese yen failed
monetary policy experience what happens
the dollar gets stronger which is
actually bad for earnings at u.s
companies that are trying to sell to
companies or people abroad because it's
more expensive for them to buy products
you know somewhere around
52 percent of buyers of tesla's are
foreign that makes teslas more expensive
right which potentially reduces demand
but anyway point is when we talk about
the fed they have to maintain
credibility and unfortunately because of
their spat with transitory inflation
they don't appear to have very much
credibility left right now and so that's
why my opinion this next scp report is
really really really really really
critical see if we end up having the
federal reserve give us an sep report
that's sort of like oh hey guys all
right um yeah uh we think gdp is going
to go down from 2.8 percent of the end
of the year we actually project now that
it's going to be like 2.4 percent well
everybody's just going to roll their
eyes at the fed and then we'll have even
less faith in the fed and i think the
fed realizes that i think the fed's
going to realize that okay what we have
to do this time is we actually have to
make sure that we give a summary of
economic projections that's reasonable
if we have an inverted yield curve which
is just inverted again today the 10-2
treasury yield curve then we probably
actually need to be honest with people
for once and project a proper gdp
forecast because otherwise we won't have
any freaking credibility left at the
same time they're obviously going to
warm us up to the idea of what the
market's already starting to price in
which is a higher terminal fed funds
rate and they need to do this again to
maintain credibility if they come up and
they're like oh we're just going to go
for 250s and then we're going to go for
25s again nobody's going to think
they're credible so they have to give us
bad news in order to maintain their own
freaking credibility they have to tell
us we're going to go for what the
market's saying potentially 175 bp hike
whether that's in june or it's in july
followed by 50s 25s are gone 50 is the
new 25 and 75s are the new 50s because
we're not seeing that inflection down in
inflation they can't even pull the
narrative that they were polling in
march
or in may which is like oh there's some
measures that inflation has peaked and
it's trending down not after this last
report it's a complete freaking disaster
so
two big problems here okay and then we
gotta talk about these these uh other
things regarding uh inflation and
unemployment of that i'm gonna summarize
these two big problems right after i
just mentioned that this video is
brought to you by public if you want to

the link down below my kevin.com
okay
so the two big problems
again number one they have to give us
bad news on the scp otherwise they lose
credibility and they have to give us bad
news on the raid forecast because
inflation just isn't transitory that
means all of a sudden this whole idea
again oh
yeah don't worry guys everything's
smooth sailing out dude don't mind a
hurricane out there don't mind you need
that all of that is just bull crap the
fed's got to give it to us straight for
once to maintain their credibility
because only if they are credible well
inflation expectations come down and see
this is a concern the last inflation
expectations that came out friday
came out in such a way that uh well i
should say they came out right before
the consumer sentiment survey came out
which was a complete disaster and
consumers inflation expectations
actually rose more substantially than
expected that's bad but wait a minute if
consumers expectations for inflation
shot up before inflation actually shot
up in this last terrible report that
means the next
outpouring or the next uh report on
consumer inflation expectations could be
even worse
unless the fed has substantial
credibility and again they can't be
credible if they keep telling us that oh
everything's fine they have to make us
feel like paul volcker's coming and
maybe he won't but this whole softest
landing thing they should kill that stop
saying we're going in for a soft landing
i wish joe biden would do this too they
need to wake up and go listen folks it's
not all good it's bad we have a problem
you need to start saving money and get
out of debt and you're going to have a
crap time if you're invested in real
estate or stocks and they got to be real
with us because if they would just be
freaking real with us then people would
actually trust them again that's why
this scp is going to be so important no
more softish landing because you know
what the softest landing is all
right now we said that we're good okay
we gotta now talk about the other
problems in the report because the other
problems in the report are also a big
problem
the unemployment report is going to be
bad in this projection i'm going to
explain that so here's what i mean with
the unemployment report being bad so
when we potentially flirt with a
recession you see companies go bankrupt
like revlon went bankrupt that was
terrible and when companies go bankrupt
people lose their jobs so we expect the
unemployment rate to go up but the fed
has only projected that the unemployment
rate would tick up by 2024. this is more
freaking fed and i'm tired
oh gosh
there's no ladder
not like a beached whale over
here okay look
oh this is the best plug for life
insurance right here make sure you get
yourself life insurance in as little as
five minutes link down below go to
kevin.com slash live
i'm gonna not be pacing on the deck
anyway uh so where were we oh the
unemployment so here's the thing in the
last scp
they bullshitted us again okay
they told us
they told us that
the unemployment rate would take up in
2024 first this is they're full
of crap
they've told us many times that they
need to in order to get inflation down
lower
lower inflation by raising rates and
that is going to lead to a tick up in
unemployment
especially if you have a recession or
depression right
they need to be real with that in the
next scp report the problem is if
they're real with us in that next scp
report people are going to freak out
again so you've got a lot of potential
freak out coming you've got the change
in real gdp that forecast is going to be
a disaster i think it's going to the
range is going to flirt with
recessionary numbers and
either look they're either real with us
and it flirts with recessionary numbers
and everybody freaks out or they lie to
us and everybody freaks out because
they're not credible and that's even
worse we need them to have credibility
which means we need to stop the
and wake up
the fed funds rate okay the terminal fed
funds rate
oh boy this one this one's a disaster
okay
so the last projection for the fed's fed
funds rate at the end of the year was
1.9
they told us the fed told us we need to
get above neutral neutral is when we're
not constrictive or accommodative we're
neither of those that's about expected
to be 2.5 though nobody actually knows
where the neutral rate is
fine
well in the last scp they told us they
would get to 1.9
now they're telling us oh well we think
we're going to go a little above neutral
which would imply a terminal rate of
somewhere between 2.75 to 3.25 percent
you don't even want to know what traders
are pricing in right now
i'm going to tell you right after i
mentioned that folks seriously build
your first million become a millionaire
in real estate it's much more stable
it's much more predictable you don't
have to try to time the market as
crazily although there are opportunities
in the macro real estate cycle to make a
lot of money the real estate cycle is
slow and it's very predictable and in my
opinion especially with mortgage rates
now touching six percent after the ten
years skyrocketed you're going to have
some really sick opportunities to make
money in income property investing in
real estate that doesn't mean that if
you're a homeowner you should freak out
and dump your home or whatever it's too
expensive to worry about that but you
should be lowering your debt and
preparing getting educated how am i
going to find wedge deals where am i
going to buy wedge deals how am i going
to get wedge multi-family deals what's
the difference between a wedge rent deal
a wedge condition deal a wedge oh deal
these are all very important things if
you don't know these things
seriously check out the programs linked
down below on building your wealth zero
to a million real estate investing i
guarantee you this is the most
comprehensive program that exists out
there on real estate nobody continues to
add to their courses except for me i add
to my programs especially when times
change and folks
a bunch of flipping courses out there
the last thing you want to do is
flipping
focus on a real product and that's what
the though what this is that's what i'm
so proud of always being able to sponsor
myself and my channel because
it's what i believe in the most is
myself and my ability to provide you
value so check that out link down below
there's some other real estate programs
as well if you're in sales or you want
to learn do it yourself property
management or my tricks for rental
renovations but folks the terminal rate
that traders are now pricing in for the
fed's fed funds rate is four percent
that means on this next scp if the fed
wants any freaking credibility we gotta
drive i forgot if the fed wants any
credibility anymore any credibility
anything oh let me get my glasses over
here if the fed wants any credibility
they're going to have to update
the scp terminal rate and that is also
going to freak out the market so
the terminal funds rate for a terminal
rate for the end of the year again was
expected to be one point
gosh 1.9
my expectation is in this next report
from the fed
we're honestly probably going to get
something like
2.8 to 3.2 by the end of the year that's
also going to freak the market out so
look you're going to have low buying
volumes between now and the fed meeting
because people don't like uncertainty
people freak out over uncertainty and i
would expect low buying volumes between
now and the fed meeting
but when we get the fed meeting i also
think we're going to experience a
disaster we're going to be in a
situation where when we look at that scp
we're going to go holy crap this is the
fed trying to regain the people's trust
trying to regain the credit credibility
and look i'll tell you
as much as you might hate the fed right
now at least we have
like
some regulation and a fed and
institutions that like try to solve
problems when they come up
which is what crypto unfortunately does
not have and that's why we started this
whole stable coin disaster which we've
been talking about potentially happening
since the end of 2020 on this channel
i've always said stable coins i don't
understand them i don't understand why i
mean i understand them but i don't
understand how they're not
multi-re-hypothecated with no regulation
and how that's okay and that
unfortunately is now affecting what's
actually a really good technology
blockchain technology i'm a big fan of
blockchain technology but i'm very
concerned
about the future for of an unregulated
environment uh you know and i don't want
to come across as like a fed shill i
think they effed up here i really think
they effed up
and that's why i think they're going to
have to regain credibility this is not
going to be like a paul volcker but it's
kind of like
this is like the pre-pulvering
anyway folks i wish you the best i
seriously do i'm always here for you and
uh
i'll keep you updated check out those
programs linked down below i'm gonna
head back and do a course member live
stream now and uh
look forward to talking to you all soon
thanks bye
