The Beginning of the END | The Great Reset.
FULL TRANSCRIPT
folks is this the beginning of the end
or is it Moon time that's what we're
going to talk about in this video we've
got quite a few charts and we've got an
interviewer from Credit Suisse an
interview with Bloomberg we're going to
do some reacting to because it's
actually quite optimistic but the
question is am I getting optimistic
about this is this or is this the moment
that we're supposed to get really
excited or is this more cause for
concern let's go ahead and get started
with exactly that thesis right here
folks and yes the price goes up tonight
we did extend the coupon code until
Thursday at 8pm California time so
you've got until tonight and then the
price is going up for the programs on
building your wealth again lifetime
access and course member live streams
with me every day the Market's open here
we go give me your year-round forecast I
know it's constructive and walk me
through why you think it's achievable
given all the risks on the table right
now
yeah I mean let's I I think that we're
going to have a double-digit
um return between now and and the end of
the year and I'll tell you what what I
think drives it and if you look at the B
if what we've seen so far this year
profits are up seven and a half percent
year-to-date and they'll probably be up
another five to six percent between now
and the end of the year so we don't have
a profit problem as much as people say
what we have is the value hold on a sec
before we get to what we have let's
think about this for a moment let's
analyze this with with a few charts and
updated pieces of info that we've got so
really what he's saying here is that hey
look we've had such a painful beginning
of the half but that doesn't correspond
to the fact that we actually had
earnings increase in the first half and
we're still expecting earnings to
increase in the second half so I did a
little bit of digging and I found this
which was interesting the s p lost 21 in
the first half of 1970. during a period
of high inflation now I I think this is
a very important and understated element
right here because we keep hearing talk
about this soft Landing right Jerome
Powell says well we've been able to
achieve a soft Landing three times
before sure but look at well not this
chart look at this chart right here
these right here are the prior periods
in which we had a soft Landing the Blue
Line represents inflation minus the
target which is two percent so basically
inflation at the time was actually two
percent higher but they're just trying
to show on the chart how far away we are
from the target so that way when you're
right here you're about five percent
away from the target where we are right
now is also about five to five and a
half percent away from the Target right
well the problem with this idea of oh
we're gonna have this soft Landing is
that wait a minute the soft Landings
dronepal talks about here here and here
all occurred during times where
inflation was at or below Target
now the Federal Reserve didn't actually
start creating a precedent of bailing
out the market until right here so sure
we've had one post-fed bail everything
out print money to save the day a kind
of bailout we've only had one situation
where we've had a soft Landing after
that
now when we look back to 1970 though
again a period of high inflation which I
think it's so important to compare to
take a look at this
first half of the year what happened S P
500 loses 21 in the first half of just
that one year the next six months the s
p literally Roars
27 which is obviously similar to what we
had in 2020 where we dropped four
percent in the first half and went up 21
in the second half well not similar in
the second half not similar in the first
but then again 2020 was the total
federal reserve bailout 1970 is a little
different because we've got massive
inflation we leave the gold standard
we've got the failure of price curbs
which the interesting thing is the
failure of price curbs and the lifting
of price caps going into the early 70s
and the late 60s actually led to more
earnings and more revenues at companies
because they were finally able to raise
prices appropriately so that way prices
would be at a level where prices would
end up matching demand but when Supply
would then supply and demand would light
up right we'd have an equilibrium of
course this ended up leading to insane
runaway inflation and insane
expectations of inflation continuing
Forever by the end of the 1970s which
led to us getting Paul volckert in the
1980s which is not what we want to see
happen right now but it's really
interesting to think that okay so here
we go we've got an individual from
Credit Suisse saying hey well earnings
are still doing great here we could have
a boomer of a rally and and potentially
rally as much as 26 by the end of the
year okay that's interesting let's see
what else he has to say let's pop back
on over here and uh and eventually I
will fix the HDMI so don't mind the
flicker anyways is a PE multiple is down
over 30 percent I think 31 on the market
and that's an enormous adjustment which
makes stocks much much cheaper okay some
on the Fly fact checking as we go along
he's not wrong here multiples measured
by the red little mountains here my son
jack calls them the red mountains okay
multiples have gone down substantially
they've collapsed we haven't actually
really seen red the news collapse yet or
therefore earnings per share
expectations really collapse yet
although earnings per share expectations
have started to inflect down after well
what happened Target and Walmart
reported see the white line represents
the Blended forward 12 month EPS
estimates but the average annulus
analyst price target has actually
started getting moved down so we still
see high EPS targets but on the right
side here this blue line we see yeah
analysts are starting to lower their
price targets now the weird thing though
about analysts and I'll tell you I hate
this is analysts just seem to move their
prices based on what the stock market is
doing so if a stock soars oh wow we're
increasing our price Target if a price
falls out we're lowering our price
Target so I pay a little bit more
attention to that white line that EPS
line we haven't really seen a
compression there yet on EPS which
actually reiterates what he says about
hey if earnings hold up
we might have a rally towards the end of
the year now I want to tell you what I'm
doing in reaction to this and there are
a few more charts that we can look at
that are extremely important but first
we got to get in a message from our

m-e-e-t fabric.com slash Kevin come back
here we go to the part two I think that
the earnings continue to move forward
and we think that you get a bounce in
valuation probably a couple of multiple
points between now and the end of the
year stocks will still end the year
cheaper than they started and they'll be
up double digits between now and
December so I can ask you this do you
think the FED will be happy I just want
to clarify that he said hey up double
digits by the end of the year still
negative but double digits by the end of
the year that's pretty bullish
see that
yeah I don't I really and I and I I talk
to people at the FED I don't think that
they are focused on what the stock
market is doing they what do they care
about they care about inflation and jobs
I I think you know if I yeah so I really
think that they're focused on the
mission and I think Powell may be behind
the curve but he's doing a pretty good
job of being clear what his his focus is
right now inflation is too high they
have to address that and that's where
they're going to spend time
let's just quickly reflect on that do we
actually think the FED doesn't care
about the stock market no of course the
FED does care about the stock market we
know that here's a chart of U.S CEO
confidence we're at some of the lowest
levels that we've seen since uh not only
the uh the pandemic but obviously going
back to the Great Recession so you know
this is a problem a recession obviously
right here the Great Recession uh and
we're trending towards low levels right
so when you get this CEO confidence
decline at the same time as you're
getting expectations for Price targets
going down and we're seeing credit cards
spend decline does make you wonder maybe
the FED does actually care about the
stock market because all of this has
aligned with the stock market going down
creating a wealth effect when people
feel like they have less money what
happens they spend less now I read this
crazy report the other day about how
Bitcoin yeah folks Bitcoin
disproportionately affects younger men
younger men who are disproportionately
likely to spend money on stuff whether
that's for their friends their family
their girlfriends watches cars boats you
name it they're more likely to take the
money and spend it and so if you crush
crypto
you crush the wealth effect amongst a
cohort that's very likely to spend it
maybe crypto could be the reason we
actually start seeing disinflation
because valuations have come down so
much an interesting little mind trip
there but we've also and this is an
important one to break down right here
when we look at this particular chart
right here what do we get we get
spending growth of consumers in both the
high and low end products according to
Barclays drifting lower right we see
these charts going down both the higher
end and the lower end but something
that's really important about this chart
and this is where it's kind of like ah
we get kind of data on both sides but do
we I don't know
this says growth in spent right it
doesn't say spending it says growth in
spending and as long as we remain above
this line right here the green bottom
line we're actually growing so even over
here we are still growing spending by 10
to 15 percent per year and so that's
actually very interesting
if this can lead EPS to hold up and you
pick companies that are going to grow
earnings per share this year
you could if this person's Right End the
year in pretty solid position now I
still think we've got headwinds coming
for semiconductors I'm very excited to
go deep on semiconductors and get a lot
more exposure to the semis but we are
seeing chip prices Trend down especially
if you track eBay chip prices uh and you
track supplies for chips supplies for
chips right now are blowing up in fact
right here our inventories total Tech
inventories up eight days on the usual
five year median Upstream Downstream
inventory this has to do with
subsidiaries this is all up memory
storage semiconductor inventory OEM
inventory uh everything with the
exception of distribution inventory
every kind of chip in the semiconductor
sector is up in terms of how much
inventory we have so we're thinking that
maybe in Q3 we're still going to have
like a semiconductor potential bottoming
out but maybe if we get a bottoming out
now between now and Q3 which Q three
folks starts tomorrow we start new
prices on the courses on building your
wealth as well tomorrow but Q3 starts
tomorrow so we could see a potential
bottoming here which is hopeful but then
again I don't really like to play hopium
I like to play reality and I like to
make the dalahalas okay all right let's
now hop back on over
um you know index for bankruptcies is at
record lows that's not what happens when
you're going into recession that's not
what happens when the economy is melting
down the fewer and fewer people are
going bankrupt you would need to see
that Spike if you're going into
recession if you look at people who are
defaulting or businesses defaulting on
loans or not making loan payments we're
not seeing that at all you know
um Anastasia was talking about a soft
Landing but in many ways this
environment just it there's this if you
look at the stock market you feel like
it's a recession and then you look at
these metrics on the health of of you
know the the credit market and it just
doesn't feel stationary so
um yeah I don't I don't think the FED
has been obsessed on the stock market
and blink on that they will blink if the
consumer falls apart that's a whole
different issue they care about the
consumer they care about jobs they care
about spend okay first of all I'm sorry
I gotta buy a new HDMI cable I don't
know what the heck is wrong with that
one but clearly it's got a problem okay
but folks let's talk about the consumer
then what happened this morning folks we
got the personal consumption
expenditures ratio which showed us our
first decline in real spending since
folks December so people are spending
less the consumer is spending less again
we saw that in the credit card data it's
not just Barclays who's seeing that in
their credit card data but JP Morgan is
reporting that they too are starting to
see declines and this is why they're
actually writing down a substantial
amount of of equity valuations in fact
and I'm still working through the report
but JPMorgan did this substantial Deep
dive uh into downgrades uh downgrades
for a lot of their companies uh I'm on
the Trivago section let me jump to the
front here look at this
uh here you can see the overall macro
environment has deteriorated since q1
earnings with inflation reaching a
40-year high in May fuel costs up 45
since February and Chase credit card
data indicating slowing consumer
spending and lower consumer confidence
they project a 66 chance of recession in
the next two years and an 83 chance of
recession over the next three years they
believe that the internet sector
continues to be more mature and
therefore has less ability to offset
broader market trends now that's
actually a lesson right there if a
company is less mature
you can kind of really still blow up
your growth even in a recessionary time
because there's so much demand
potentially for your product what does
that make us think of Tesla it's still
not a mature automaker it's still young
right but once you become mature
well then you are subject to the whims
of the macroeconomic cycle this is why
when we were looking at the earnings
call for not just the earnings call but
the actual earnings report for Nike
which every day in our course member
live streams we go through fundamental
analysis whether it's earnings calls
press releases uh 10ks 10qs whatever
what do we see we see a five percent
decline in net income year over year at
Nike and not only do we see a decline of
net income but we also see a decline of
revenues of one percent year over year
you know this is this is a company
that's subject to the whims of the macro
cycle because it's more mature and so I
think this becomes very important when
you're picking investments in this kind
of Market sure could we have uh you know
a great Q3 in Q4 as maybe finally we see
inflation P look I want to be the
cheerleader for that idea absolutely and
I'm going to tell you a little bit about
what I'm doing right after I say where
is our inflation chart uh we got to get
inflation ah yes here I wanted to show
these right after we start actually
seeing inflation go down right which
here's a chart on the average price of
gasoline 16 days of drops in a row this
is good we've seen oil move down there's
still people shouting that oil is going
to go to 150. I don't know if it's just
fear-mongering we've seen the a 10-year
treasury yield plummet the 10-year
treasury yield is right here look at
that plummet that we got on the 10-year
treasury yield it's under three percent
right now people are uh you know picking
up bonds again they might drink the
bottoms in for the bond market why
because maybe the bottoms or the top is
in for inflation because look at the
break-even expectations for inflation
this is the five year and the ten year
the white line is the five-year and look
at it the expectations are plummeting
here I'll remove myself for a second
there we go
look at this this is like straight down
folks if I draw a line from the bottom
we are now at least on the white line
which is the five year Break Even we're
at the lowest point in inflation
expectations for the market that we've
been in since October of a 2021 which is
incredible and the uh and the lowest
level since January of 2022 for the
10-year curve this is very interesting
the market seems optimistic at least
about this idea that yeah inflation
might be peaking here and uh we are
starting to see Commodities rotate down
whether it's gas or oil or or other
Commodities that have peaked such as a
big one obviously in the past here has
been a nickel or copper right and we've
seen some peaks in some of these
commodity prices and so this is again
leading to at least some hopium that hey
maybe just maybe
we could be starting to see a peak of
inflation now what do I personally think
I don't actually think we're going to
see a real peak on inflation until
probably somewhere around uh July to
early September and so that's I should
clarify that I don't think we're going
to see a peak of inflation until either
the July or August CPI report which
we'll we'll get those between August and
September right because they come out
the month later uh it but from there I
do think the way Commodities are looking
now the way Fuel and energy costs are
looking and the year-over-year comps
that we start having to lap when we get
to the Delta variant level of inflation
which really started picking up in
September we should start seeing drops
when we get our CPI reads for September
October November I'm hopeful but hopium
doesn't work so well right opium isn't
an investment strategy so what is my
strategy right now well my personal
strategy is no debt take whatever real
estate I can buy the dip on painful red
days in the stock market keep some cash
on the sidelines whether that's 10 20
something like that but otherwise I'm in
I'm buying this stuff I'm not going to
pass up on in my opinion the opportunity
of a lifetime to build quantity of
shares and if that means Tesla goes to
400 or goes to 900 doesn't matter just
give me give me the quantity for example
on Tesla if that means Nvidia goes to a
hundred bucks I'm buying you know trade
desk back under 35 please give me some
more and phase 130 I'm ready to go so
I'll use that cash for some other
opportunities but otherwise I'm it and
I'm excited if you want to see every
move I make remember stocks and
psychology money folks you get lifetime
access thank you so much for watching
the video and we'll see in the next one
thanks good luck
