0:00

stimulus checks are back this is not

0:02

something I thought I would be covering

0:04

for China yes stimulus checks have just

0:08

been announced for quote the poor before

0:11

their National Day ministries of finance

0:14

and civil Affairs are apparently going

0:17

to offer living subsidies to dis

0:20

disadvantaged groups including very poor

0:23

people and orphans local authorities are

0:26

trying to get this money out before

0:27

October 1st this is very very rare you

0:29

usually you only see stimulus from the

0:31

top down in China and this sort of

0:33

exacerbates the deflationary Spiral that

0:36

you've been facing in China we'll get

0:38

into some more details on these checks

0:39

in just a moment but consider this for a

0:41

moment what's really important right now

0:43

in China are the expectations of further

0:45

policy support uh analysts and experts

0:48

on China say that right now this sort of

0:50

stimulus bazooka we got over the last 24

0:53

hours from The People's Bank of China is

0:55

not enough to change market dynamics

0:58

just yet in fact if you just take a look

1:01

at the hangsang index this is sort of

1:04

your uh yeah I think it's a 52 or 58 uh

1:07

constituents uh that make up somewhere

1:09

around 80% of the Chinese market cap any

1:11

if you take a look at them yesterday

1:14

morning well I mean their version of

1:16

today when their Market opened they were

1:18

going to be up somewhere around 4% but

1:20

take a look at this the market already

1:22

sold that 4% off down to just 68 basis

1:26

points of gains which don't get me wrong

1:28

it's still positive but you could see

1:29

you went straight down Futures were the

1:31

rest of the difference here but anyway

1:33

look at the niay over here the Nay also

1:36

ran initially fell ran into lunch fell

1:40

ran fell just couldn't keep it up uh you

1:44

did have the docks over in Germany start

1:47

rotating at least towards the positive

1:49

direction it did rotate up yesterday on

1:52

the news of this Chinese stimulus their

1:54

Market's obviously still open at this uh

1:56

point in time but uh only uh uh well

2:00

sitting at 32 basis points so you're not

2:01

even up you had oil rally yesterday uh

2:05

oil rallied a about 2% now it's down

2:08

almost 2% again oil and the

2:10

international blend Brent right here so

2:12

it's almost like markets are really

2:14

skeptical of this Chinese stimulus that

2:17

is this actually going to be enough uh

2:19

to keep the Chinese economy out of a

2:22

recession if you look at gold the answer

2:24

is probably no I mean you just hit

2:26

another record high look at this

2:28

2682 right now we're almost at $2,700 an

2:31

ounce for gold it's been an incredible

2:34

mover now some other facts to look at

2:37

and uh and details to understand

2:38

regarding the stimulus is that deflation

2:41

is is just unfortunately for China very

2:43

structural now I see in the comments a

2:45

lot of people are hoping that we'll have

2:47

deflation in the United States but

2:49

deflation is self-perpetuating

2:51

self-fulfilling and it's usually

2:53

associated with a recession it's usually

2:55

associated with you losing your job so

2:58

you know we look at this as like oh but

3:00

prices will be lower great but you won't

3:02

be able to afford anything because you

3:03

won't have work this deceleration is is

3:06

very bad that you're seeing in China and

3:09

frankly it's Gathering momentum it's not

3:11

slowing down it's basically getting

3:13

worse faster so yes hopefully this

3:16

latest stimulus bazooka that we've seen

3:19

can help China get ahead uh but so far

3:23

the more China stimulates to build out

3:25

capex the more you create a deflationary

3:27

spiral of more Manufacturing more

3:30

potential manufacturing jobs and more

3:32

deflation as you now have created more

3:33

competition even though the Market's not

3:35

asking for that that's why now you're

3:37

getting a fiscal policy response of okay

3:40

well let's give poor people checks

3:42

that's great and could be a good chunk

3:45

of money for some I don't think it'll be

3:47

this High I think they'll really broaden

3:48

out how many people receive these but

3:51

there are currently

3:53

4.74 million uh extremely poor uh in

3:59

China and uh they're allocating right

4:01

now about four uh oops let's see it here

4:05

there we go a little oopsy doopy 22

4:07

billion so if we take $22 billion and we

4:11

divide it by

4:13

4.74 one two 3 million people that could

4:16

be as much as about $4,600 per each of

4:19

those people now given that China has a

4:21

population of over about 1.5 billion

4:24

people I would suspect that more than

4:26

just 4.7 million are going to be

4:28

eligible for these checks and so

4:30

therefore the checks will probably be

4:31

closer to something we saw during covid

4:33

which in China was closer to about

4:35

$500 uh in the United States we had

4:38

stimulus of somewhere around $6,000 per

4:41

person on average uh anyway national day

4:44

is a major holiday it's usually a

4:46

holiday that sees a lot of travel and

4:47

consumption so they're hoping that'll

4:49

sort of offset the property slump and

4:50

sort of the pretty gloomy stock market

4:53

you've had out there you do you are

4:55

starting to see Central Bankers are

4:57

actually sort of appreciating this idea

4:58

of like okay cool yeah maybe if we could

5:00

just pump the stock market to alltime

5:02

highs we can kind of like keep the

5:04

economy out of recession and frankly so

5:07

far it's working I mean look at the

5:08

United States for example uh Atlanta fed

5:11

now real GDP data uh showing us at a

5:15

2.99% estimate for Q3 GDP we do get uh a

5:19

GDP report tomorrow so pay attention to

5:22

that and wow we're pricing in 59% chance

5:25

right now of getting a 50 basis point

5:27

cut in November already that's pretty

5:29

remarkable but uh tomorrow September

5:31

26th at 5:30 in the morning we'll be

5:33

getting a GDP annualized quarter over

5:35

quarter now keep in mind that's just the

5:38

third read for Q2 so it's kind of old

5:41

data it's not really going to help us a

5:43

lot same thing for the GDP price data

5:45

for Q2 I think what's going to be a

5:46

little bit more useful and probably more

5:49

likely to move the market is at that

5:51

same time we're going to get

5:52

unemployment claims and continuing

5:54

claims which we're expecting to be

5:56

224,000 1.82

5:59

6 million so we'll see we will get

6:02

durable orders and cap Goods but I don't

6:03

think those are going to be as uh

6:05

pressing as those unemployment claim

6:07

numbers this all comes at the same time

6:09

as now China has apparently launched the

6:11

first ICBM into International Water

6:14

since like the 80s which is kind of

6:17

crazy to see uh it's also a little bit

6:19

scary because it's kind of like wait a

6:20

minute why are you doing this China it's

6:23

like they're trying to show us uh that

6:25

they too can be a

6:27

boss uh not great great uh but then

6:30

you've also got uh some more

6:32

expectations obviously that this is just

6:34

the beginning of more easing for example

6:36

they cut their um medium loan facility

6:39

rates down to 2% from 2.3 it's a 30 Bas

6:42

basis point cut that might not mean a

6:43

lot to you so I'm just going to put it

6:45

this way it's the largest cut since 2016

6:47

uh then uh you know the yuan is

6:50

obviously strengthening on this because

6:51

the United States is is you know cutting

6:54

rates and their concerns potentially

6:55

over recession or not uh where you know

6:58

they are stimulating now actively on

7:00

both actually now a fiscal and uh

7:02

economic side uh and uh there's some

7:06

talk that they might end up moving to uh

7:09

ending like reducing rates that people

7:12

get on their deposits uh and not just

7:15

people but also corporations they

7:16

haven't done that yet but there's some

7:18

talk that they might end up doing that

7:20

uh and if they do that you could then

7:21

really see uh maybe some inflows into

7:24

spending is a theory or it'll just

7:27

people make people even more nervous

7:28

because that's what happens during

7:29

deflationary times people get even more

7:31

nervous and they purposefully stop

7:33

spending so we'll see but anyway some

7:35

more info there uh markets continue to

7:37

look for any kind of signs that they can

7:39

regarding recession in unemployment

7:41

claimed numbers I personally have said

7:43

it before I'll say it again I think it's

7:45

kind of nonsensical to look at

7:46

unemployment claim numbers mostly

7:48

because you generally don't see a large

7:50

wave of unemployment until you're

7:53

already in a recession you don't see

7:55

those unemployment claims until it's

7:57

already too late uh so we'll see

8:00

but what would be good is seeing the

8:02

opposite right let's see those 27 weeks

8:05

unemployed and longer start declining

8:07

again let's start seeing these

8:08

unemployment claim numbers come in even

8:10

lower those are all things that could

8:12

potentially reiterate that hey you know

8:15

maybe things are getting better not

8:18

worse right now if we look at the 27

8:20

weeks unemployed we can see you know

8:23

pretty solid uptake over here on the

8:24

right and if you zoom out you always get

8:27

an uptake like that in recession you

8:30

generally don't see the uptakes absent

8:33

recession so again I mean you had a

8:35

little uptick over here in like 63 but

8:38

uh it looks like our magnitude is a

8:39

little larger over here but we'll see

8:42

the where the trajectory of these

8:43

numbers goes now will determine how much

8:46

markets try to price in recession do

8:48

keep in mind that very few people

8:50

actually think we're with certainty

8:53

going to have a recession here which is

8:56

actually exactly what I would expect

8:59

going into into a recession is most

9:01

people aren't going to think we're in a

9:04

recession yet uh let's go find out it

9:06

was the conference board that did a

9:08

reading on this uh take a look at this

9:12

uh okay expectations index based on

9:15

consumer short-term Outlook declined to

9:18

81.7 but remains above 80 a reading

9:21

below 80 is usually the threshold of a

9:24

recession ahead okay perfect the

9:26

proportion of consumers anticipating a

9:28

recession over the next 12 months

9:30

remained low so not quite in recession

9:33

category yet at least regarding the

9:35

sentiment data but certainly going to be

9:38

data that we're going to watch and this

9:39

is exactly what they're trying to U-turn

9:41

in China where they're trying to get

9:43

ahead of this miserable sentiment let's

9:46

see what happens as time goes on why not

9:48

advertise these things that you told us

9:49

here I feel like nobody else knows about

9:51

this we'll we'll try a little

9:52

advertising in see go congratulations
