FULL TRANSCRIPT

0:01

hey everyone me Kevin here coming to you

0:02

from the Port of Long Beach boy oh boy

0:04

we have a crisis the NASDAQ is down

0:06

almost a four percent both the s p and

0:08

down down nearly a three percent what is

0:10

going on with our economy because it

0:12

feels like it's collapsing it feels like

0:14

the Federal Reserve has absolutely zero

0:16

control or even zero clue as to what the

0:19

hell they're doing well we've got a lot

0:21

to talk about in this video not only are

0:22

we going to start by talking about the

0:24

fed and rates but we're going to talk

0:25

about why they've lost control and we're

0:27

also going to talk about what just

0:29

happened with the consumer credit

0:30

explosion and maybe we'll even touch

0:32

about what happened with AMD yesterday

0:34

because that was another crisis all

0:37

these crises compounding especially

0:38

since when you look at the disasters and

0:40

the escalation that we're seeing in

0:42

Ukraine uh Russia now pushing forward

0:44

again more strongly towards the South uh

0:47

and in addition to that the Chinese

0:48

economy looking even gloomier and

0:50

gloomier by the day some folks calling

0:52

for a bottom and then it just gets worse

0:54

folks I don't even know where to begin I

0:57

will say though I am wearing a prayer

0:58

potion so maybe it makes it a little bit

0:59

better okay let's start with this first

1:01

there are now some folks on Wall Street

1:03

and this is scary they are now some

1:05

folks on Wall Street saying hey um you

1:07

know how the feds said that at the end

1:09

of 2022 interest rates would lift off

1:13

from zero percent and they'd end up at

1:15

0.9 that's what they told us a year ago

1:18

oh we'll be at 0.9 we'll barely have to

1:20

raise rates to constrain inflation

1:21

because it's transitory it'll go away

1:23

you know and to some extent we still

1:25

believe that some of the inflation

1:26

caused by the covet pandemic is

1:28

transitory some of the issues caused by

1:30

China and Ukraine and Russia might not

1:32

be so transitory those were as Jerome

1:34

Powell told us in February a quote game

1:37

changer

1:38

well some folks on Wall Street are

1:39

saying hey remember how the FED said 0.9

1:41

yeah they were wrong then

1:44

they're gonna be wrong again

1:46

and so then the FED said hey rates at

1:49

the end of 2022 probably get slightly

1:51

above neutral and we think neutral is

1:53

like two and a half percent you know

1:55

maybe we'll have to go restrictive just

1:56

a little bit for some time we'll go to

1:58

like

1:59

2.75 and and then we'll be able to pause

2:02

and sort of assess and wait for the data

2:04

to come in

2:05

well then just last month they told us

2:07

nah you know what we're actually gonna

2:09

go to 4.6 percent

2:12

and we're probably not going to pause

2:14

we're we're just going to go to 4.6 uh

2:18

and then uh you know we might have to go

2:20

above that we might not pause so don't

2:22

plan on a pause but eventually we'll

2:24

pause and when we do we're not going to

2:26

U-turn and drop rates anytime soon we'll

2:28

stay there for a while okay that's

2:30

that's the latest that they told us so

2:32

in other words every single estimate

2:33

they've given us so far has been wrong

2:35

it's coming a lot hotter and stronger

2:37

and this is now leading some folks on

2:38

Wall Street to say

2:39

we are not seeing inflation improve

2:42

we're not seeing jobs inflation improve

2:46

we're probably going to need the FED to

2:48

be wrong two or three more times and

2:51

that potentially means Rising rates

2:53

raising rates all the way to a Fed funds

2:55

rate of maybe close to six to seven

2:57

percent

2:58

most say that high inflation is never

3:01

broken unless the FED funds rate is

3:03

actually higher than the nominal rate of

3:05

inflation the nominal rate of inflation

3:07

right now is 8.1 percent if the Federal

3:09

Reserve raised rates to 8.1 percent we

3:11

would be in a depression inflation will

3:13

go away but we will be in a depression

3:15

it will be a complete disaster and it's

3:17

already turning into a disaster and

3:18

consumers are doing the absolute worst

3:20

thing that they could potentially be

3:21

doing right now

3:22

that is spending more money specifically

3:25

on travel consumers are spending more

3:27

money on travel they're spending more

3:28

money internationally on luxury clothing

3:31

they're spending more money on apparel

3:33

they're spending more money on cruises

3:34

and and going out and just blowing their

3:37

money

3:37

entertainment spending's going up and so

3:40

what happens when you look at people's

3:41

credit card bills well you look at

3:43

people's credit card and last month what

3:45

did we get well we thought people's

3:46

credit card bills and their outstanding

3:48

debt would go up by 25 billion

3:50

economists were wrong once again

3:52

debt actually went up 32.2 billion

3:55

dollars and if you go look up my last

3:59

tweet or one of my last tweets at

4:00

realmeet Kevin on Twitter you'll

4:02

actually see the chart of the growth of

4:04

consumer credit every single month going

4:06

all the way back to 1980. and what

4:09

you'll notice is the chart has never

4:12

been higher than where it is now we're

4:15

at insane peaks of consumer credit

4:17

growth right now at a time where rates

4:19

are skyrocketing and now are estimated

4:22

well the market isn't anticipating this

4:24

Market is anticipating terminal rates

4:25

will be like 4.7 percent but there are

4:27

some Wall Street analysts who are saying

4:28

hey this is a Fed funds rate is going to

4:30

go like eight percent

4:31

that's insane fed funds rate goes to you

4:34

know six percent even uh I mean eight

4:35

percent would just be absolutely

4:37

devastating but even six percent which

4:38

is where you have a lot more of the the

4:40

bearish folks uh estimating right now

4:42

six percent that off four and a half's

4:43

not gonna cut it we're gonna cross five

4:45

and maybe we'll get to six but then

4:47

we'll peek out around there that's just

4:48

what some of the more hawkish people are

4:49

saying nobody's really saying eight with

4:51

the exception of the people are like

4:52

well historically we gotta get the rate

4:54

above what inflation is but then again

4:55

maybe inflation will be like 5.9 knock

4:57

on wood uh and then we get to six

4:59

percent right something like that could

5:00

happen but anyway

5:02

that's scary and the last thing people

5:04

should be doing is getting into debt

5:07

more this is absolutely insane like this

5:08

is the worst time to be getting into

5:09

debt or borrowing for a new car or

5:12

buying a home buying a home is like the

5:14

worst thing you could do right now be so

5:15

stupid Oh that's a nice one uh but

5:17

anyway oh it's a little expression

5:19

espresso but anyway uh this is so

5:21

annoying now they got this giant

5:22

announcement going on over here but

5:23

anyway hopefully you can't hear it so

5:25

what's crazy

5:27

is that you are clearly going to be

5:30

going into an earnings recession and if

5:31

you're holding stocks you need to buckle

5:33

up because I'm not encouraging anybody

5:35

to sell and I'm not selling I'm buying

5:38

but it's painful and as I said in

5:40

January this is gonna be a long process

5:42

and unfortunately I've been wrong about

5:44

the timing right I thought this process

5:46

would have ended by now that we would

5:48

have seen inflation and inflationary

5:50

figures from jobs start rotating down it

5:52

might take two or three times as long as

5:54

we originally thought we thought okay

5:55

this is going to be you know a 9 to 12

5:57

month hiking process and then we'll peek

5:59

out uh and then inflation will finally

6:02

come down and the FED can relax it's

6:04

just not looking that way so while it

6:06

could still happen you know maybe

6:07

inflation will still peek out at the end

6:09

of this year and and maybe the bottom of

6:11

the market will come which the bottom of

6:12

the market usually comes six months

6:14

before uh the bottom of earnings that's

6:17

really important to keep in mind six

6:18

months before the bottom of earnings per

6:20

Goldman Sachs is usually when you see

6:21

the market actually bottom but anyway is

6:24

it like

6:25

we got to be a lot more patient than we

6:27

anticipated I think calling for and it

6:30

could still happen but I think calling

6:32

for oh we're definitely going to see an

6:33

end of the year rally oh we're

6:34

definitely going to see a Tesla rally

6:36

q3q4 I think those are mistakes and you

6:38

know those are things that I've said uh

6:40

you know obviously without guarantees

6:42

but but like everything's just taking a

6:44

lot longer to get where we want it uh

6:46

and and uh the the pain is lasting a lot

6:49

longer as well so we have to be more

6:50

patient and willing to survive the pain

6:52

uh for a lot longer so what does that

6:55

mean it means staying away from margin

6:56

let's look at amds or or really debt

6:59

that could take us out like you got to

7:00

be a survivor in these times let's look

7:02

at what AMD just announced AMD and we

7:04

talked about this this morning in our

7:05

course member live stream which remember

7:06

to join use that coupon code down below

7:08

uh if you look at my Twitter story

7:10

you'll see my Shopify complaints it's

7:12

like absolutely ridiculous how long it's

7:13

taking to get this this one product that

7:15

we're trying to launch up on Shopify

7:17

it's just totally ridiculous customer

7:19

service sucks to Shopify I think they're

7:20

cutting because they're so bloated you

7:22

know after I started using Shopify I I

7:24

got actually initially excited because

7:25

of all the bells and whistles they say

7:27

they have I got initially excited about

7:29

the Shopify earnings and I look and I go

7:31

oh my gosh this is a terribly bloated

7:33

company barely growing revenues for the

7:35

valuation where it is and they need to

7:38

lay off staff and I think that's what

7:39

they're doing the customer service

7:40

department is a complete disaster but

7:42

anyway AMD which we analyzed this

7:43

morning in the course member live stream

7:44

also a complete disaster we looked at

7:46

their preliminary numbers and oh my gosh

7:48

they're they're PC division is

7:50

plummeting that's their processor

7:52

division so people are buying less PCS

7:54

we're starting to see cracks in servers

7:57

data centers and servers and integrated

7:59

chips and while they're still growing

8:00

some the growth is slowing starting to

8:02

see cracks there and the PC division is

8:04

not crypto crypto is the gaming division

8:07

that was actually flat quarter over

8:08

quarter uh but quarter over quarter and

8:10

year over year you had a complete

8:12

collapse of pro the processing division

8:14

terrible and part of that is because a

8:17

people are buying less but the other

8:19

part is because we're still having

8:20

supply chain crises and this is what

8:22

brings up how the Federal Reserve is

8:24

failing so the Federal Reserve cannot do

8:27

anything about nightmares here they

8:31

can't do anything about that all they

8:33

can do is raise rates that's their blunt

8:35

policy instrument to basically create

8:37

more pain reduce our wealth and ruin our

8:39

time okay and every time I go on a

8:42

vacation a freaking stock market crashes

8:43

is terrible but anyway this behind me

8:45

right here this is a logistical

8:47

nightmare when there are fewer people

8:49

available to drive those trucks or

8:51

they're demanding more wages well fine

8:52

let them have more wages I mean I

8:54

encourage people get paid more money for

8:56

for hard work

8:57

and that is hard work out there but boy

8:59

oh boy even with wages going up there

9:01

still aren't enough people it's insane

9:03

and so you have massive supply chain

9:05

snarls that are just worsened by the

9:06

fact that China is trying to be

9:07

protectionist at the same time as their

9:09

economies crashing by more than a third

9:11

they're they're without doubting a

9:13

recession although their statistical

9:14

numbers or they're still positive GDP

9:16

two and a half percent it's just slower

9:17

growth it's

9:19

but anyway the FED can't do anything

9:20

about the supply chain damage so even

9:22

AMD even Tesla right complaining about

9:24

logistical nightmares and supply chain

9:26

nightmares they're still going on we

9:28

still like we have an oversupply of like

9:31

crypto chips that nobody wants and an

9:34

under supply of chips that we need for

9:36

things like cars which is crazy so we

9:39

still have a massive supply chain

9:40

mismatch and the FED Mary Daley Marie

9:43

Daly whatever told us uh just two days

9:46

ago in an interview with Bloomberg she

9:48

said hey you know look we think we

9:50

control the demand side of the

9:51

occupation and we think demand is

9:53

responsible for 50 of the inflation

9:54

we're seeing okay fine that means every

9:57

time you do a rate hike it's only 50 as

9:59

effective and every time you hike rates

10:00

one percent here you slow down

10:04

markets like Europe buy like 1.6 percent

10:06

there's like a a 60 greater effect on

10:10

other markets than our own Market from

10:12

rate hikes so in other words your hiking

10:14

rates to lower demand you have to lower

10:16

demand so much so to actually be able to

10:19

effect and try to get the supply chains

10:20

to repair themselves in doing so you are

10:23

crushing other markets this is why the

10:25

United Kingdom is experiencing uh you

10:28

know I mean they just had to rely on

10:30

their lending of Last Resort

10:31

capabilities because uh they almost

10:33

destroyed the market with with uh the

10:35

fall of the pound and the destruction in

10:36

the bond market Pension funds nearly

10:38

going bankrupt it's the kind of stuff

10:40

that could happen out here too it's

10:41

scary and so this is where

10:43

I want to be very clear about a few

10:45

things

10:46

first of all clear your calendar for the

10:48

first two weeks of December okay I want

10:50

to meet you in New York more details to

10:52

come I don't know what date yet

10:54

New York Stock Exchange first two weeks

10:56

of December be there be square

10:58

okay number two

11:00

you need to survive

11:02

I'm not paper handing

11:04

you know people label me as a paper hand

11:07

flip-flopper it's fine I think that's a

11:10

minority I think a lot of people come

11:11

here for intellectual

11:13

perspective

11:15

so I shouldn't even be addressing the

11:17

morons but anyway

11:19

I'm not selling

11:21

I am a fan of increasing my quantity in

11:25

these times and it's very hard it's very

11:27

hard I mean I'm looking at numbers red

11:29

that I haven't seen in my life okay like

11:32

it's so red it's terrible

11:36

but this is the time to build quantity

11:38

and that's exactly what I'm doing I'm

11:40

not going to let the emotions of what we

11:43

have known since January was going to be

11:45

a shitty 2022 affect what I believe the

11:49

trajectory for this rest the rest of

11:51

this decade is the rest of this decade

11:53

is an opportunity to build Welsh buying

11:55

at the bottom and writing stocks and

11:58

buying real estate substantially cheaper

12:00

than we'll ever be able to before

12:02

this is why we're hoarding cash with

12:03

househack we're not going to finance

12:05

real estate at these rates it's insane

12:07

everybody else is going to get screwed

12:08

in real estate we'll be the ones who

12:10

have cash we're gonna have massive

12:11

buying power

12:12

it's gonna be amazing if you're an

12:14

accredited investor you should join me

12:15

househack.com read the PPM that's your

12:18

solicitation this video is not a

12:19

solicitation

12:20

and if you're non-accredited don't worry

12:22

we're working on something to get

12:23

non-accredited investors in probably

12:25

also by January

12:26

but folks this is a time to be a

12:28

Survivor get out of debt increase your

12:31

income like you have to keep the grind

12:33

on right now now is literally the time

12:34

to get a second job I know that sounds

12:36

terrible it's like ah but things are so

12:38

shitty exactly exactly the time to be

12:41

euphoric and spendy is when when things

12:44

are a bull run like okay then go ride

12:46

your private jet now it's economy

12:49

save every freaking dime you can

12:51

stop spending money

12:53

I know that sounds crazy because that's

12:55

just gonna make the economy worse but

12:56

look come on in the finance Community

12:59

how many people am I really talking to

13:00

here okay relative to all consumers

13:02

across the United States are let alone

13:03

the world we're not worried about moving

13:06

the economy with my videos here I'm

13:08

worried about helping the people who do

13:10

watch realize

13:11

the pain could last longer

13:13

you know I'm not gonna come here and say

13:15

this is it this is the bottom tried that

13:17

didn't work I was wrong you know it it

13:21

was just wrong

13:23

13:25

in hindsight it's like damn best

13:27

performing asset was Cash

13:29

13:30

is kind of what I said in January I just

13:32

didn't fully listen to myself uh I only

13:34

13:36

uh but anyway be a Survivor don't get

13:40

margin called don't go bankrupt in this

13:43
