The FED *just* Revealed their 2022 Market Crash Scenario.
FULL TRANSCRIPT
hey everyone kevin here you wanna know
what the federal reserve's doomsday
scenario
is for the market specifically the stock
and housing market over the next
potentially few months to couple of
years well
they basically handed it to us on a
silver platter now you may not have
heard about the doomsday scenario
because the doomsday scenario was buried
in
the dodd-frank stress tests
of banks and financial institutions and
if you just
saw headlines of the stress test you
probably would have only heard something
like this
the tests show that large firms have
sufficient capital levels to absorb
losses
during stressful conditions this is due
in part due to substantial capital
buildup
since the last financial crisis and the
results suggest that all firms
would experience substantial losses
but would remain well above their
minimum risk-based requirements
and could continue lending or if not all
then at least
23 of the firms that participated
but this isn't about saying yay okay the
bank stress test went okay all right
what else
this is about looking and understanding
what the adverse scenario entails
how much did the stock market drop in
their scenario
how much did the housing market drop in
their scenario when
did these drops occur now what's kind of
interesting but also a little weird to
think about for this scenario
is this scenario was conducted in
february so we're really only now
getting the results of this
so some of this feels a little weird
since technically we're already
in the second quarter in fact the second
quarter of 2021 is
almost over it comes to an end in five
days just like my course coupon code
linked down below
for all of my programs on building your
wealth including stocks and psychology
of money in which 40
off coupon code ends in five days all
right but more importantly we must talk
about the severely adverse scenario
this is the hardest scenario under which
the banks were tested under
this means the fed thought hey
what is like the worst we could throw at
these banks
to see if they can withstand it and
let's see some of the variables they
changed
to indicate this crash actually coming
some of them
surprised me and i have a feeling
they'll surprise you as well
all right and if any of the stresses you
know remember go to medkevin.com
life for life insurance you can get in
as little as five minutes or
medkevin.com
lemonade to price shop kevin.com life
or slash lemonade or both all right here
we go the severely adverse scenario is
characterized by a severe global
recession
accompanied by a period of heightened
stress in commercial real estate
and corporate debt markets hmm sounds a
little familiar to 2008
but okay the u.s unemployment rate
climbs to a peak of
10.75 in the third quarter
of 2022. hmm why would they pick that
you know i personally like reading these
because like wait a minute
what is it about 2022 that you don't
like
anyway unemployment rate rises to 10.75
in the third quarter of 2022 a four
percentage point
increase relative to its fourth quarter
2020 level
real gdp falls four percent from the end
of the fourth quarter of 2020
through the third quarter of 2022 what
is it with the third and fourth quarter
of 2022
is this like is this a suggestion that
there's gonna be some stress at the end
of 2022 maybe
i don't know it's just there it's just
their scenario right
that the cohort sold excited the decline
in activity
is accompanied by lower headline
consumer price
index inflation which quickly falls to
an annual rate of about one percent
in the second quarter of 2021. now this
is
this is we know this is wrong because
right now we're
not seeing that however what's really
freaky and so we can this is why i kind
of preface that you kind of want to
avoid
considering their second quarter of 2021
talk because well this test was done in
february
and this is not true like inflation
right now is higher way higher
than an annual rate of one percent we're
at an annual rate of over four percent
okay
so consider that for a moment it's kind
of weird what they're talking about in
their scenario even though this timing
is
not possible anymore the second quarter
of 2021 is over
what they're talking about in their
scenario which they're worried could
potentially
or or is their test scenario i'll say
i'm not saying that they think this is
what's gonna happen
it's just their test scenario right so
q3
to q4 2020 they think the
characteristics that could lead to a
crash like this would be
high unemployment of 10.75
inflation actually going down to an
annualized rate of one percent and then
gdp falling
at a total rate of four percent this is
really interesting to me
because 2022 is going to be marked by
a very fascinating set of inflation data
in fact we've talked about this on the
channel before but consider this
if prices for certain widgets goes up
let's say 10 percent in 2021
because in 2020 it was let's say a
hundred dollars
and now all of a sudden it's a hundred
ten dollars that's a ten percent
increase
but if the price because supply chain
shortages fixes you know gets cleared up
or whatever
and goes down then what do we end up
having
we have a deflation rate of five percent
for that particular product well if this
happens and this cleans up or the supply
chain
crisis sees clean themselves up and we
get this happening in
multiple different segments of the
markets yeah
it's actually possible that headline
inflation could fall
to one percent kind of creepy to think
about but like that path is there
okay so let's go back to the scenario
here so and then stays at the level for
another quarter
before here we go gradually
rising to two and a quarter percent by
the end of the scenario period
so also weird they're kind of suggesting
this temporary fall in inflationary
readings
which we have here and then an increase
again
in inflationary readings here let's use
the red there we go so really you get
this big spike in inflation
followed by a decline in inflation
readings and then an increase again
this this is chartable like this could
make sense that could be what happens
just kind of interesting in line with
the sharp decline in real activity the
three-month treasury remains near zero
and the 10-year yield falls to 0.25
percent
folks 0.25 right now we're at
1.5 percent so a little different here
right so again ignore this talk about
quarters of 2021
because this is just their scenario here
uh after which gradually rising to one
and a half percent by the end of the
scenario period so this is interesting
because this is where we stand
now so this is a little counter to
these scenarios that we have over here
but we'll write it down
so we'll put 10 year 1.5 percent
towards the end of the scenario period
which is basically during crash time
all right let's now move forward oh
worth also taking a peek at some of
these charts and then we'll get the
numbers on equities falling
and housing prices falling so look at
this gdp growth in their adverse
scenario
look at this here's that v-shaped crash
down
then you get this explosion up which
we're seeing now
but look at this this is something else
the projection and again this is not a
projection of what
is going to happen this is just a
projection of if this happened
how would banks be able to hold up right
so you have to keep that in mind but
that this is their
these are the scenarios they're talking
about of potentially having this
over correction to the downside and then
rotating back up
it's kind of like you you've got this
insane velocity to the downside but then
this insane velocity of the upside
and then when you go back down to
stabilize you actually crack down a
little bit before stabilizing
kind of weird and interesting because
could happen here's what they see for
house prices
they see that in their scenario about
midway through their scenario
quarter 3 2021 i drew this little red
line for quarter three just so you would
see
they see housing prices potentially
falling and then coming back up
and this is a substantial fall i'll tell
you how much in just a moment because
they write that down
and then this is what they see for the
dow jones this incredible
skyrocketing that we're seeing now and
then this u-shaped kind of fall
and recovery again corporate yields in
the inverse here
okay now you ready for declines you
ready for this
okay here we go so conditions in
corporate and real estate lending
markets
deteriorate markedly the spread between
yields blah blah most of us don't care
so much about spreading yields if you do
pause in the reading here we go
asset prices drop sharply in this
scenario
equity prices fall 55
through the third quarter of 2021 now we
have to again revise this because we're
literally going to be in the third
quarter of 2021 in a few weeks
but the point is if there if there is
going to be a crash ever
like this this is how much they think
stocks could fall
55 accompanied by a rise in the
volatility index
and house prices and commercial real
estate prices experience
overall declines with house prices
falling
23.5 percent through the end of 2022
and commercial real estate prices
falling 40
through the first quarter of 2023 then
this would cause severe recessions in
the euro area the united kingdom
japan and a significant deceleration of
activity
this also assumes the largest
counterparty
collapse at banks which ends up leading
to a flight to safety
which could prop up the us dollar
despite seeing these declines
but this counterparty collapse could
lead
to the greatest losses in derivatives
and lending derivatives folks
in case in case you don't remember
derivatives
what do you think options are are
options
valued based on their own performance or
are they derived from the value of
something else yeah folks options are
derivatives
so this scenario really kind of scary
something to pay attention to uh you
know it's
it's just the scenario uh it's a
scenario that was created in february
2021
i just find it very very interesting
that
this the suggestions of what could cause
or
be a result of this recession it's not
very clear if we're talking cause or
effect of some of these things
some of these things could be effects
gdp falling four percent
inflation down to one percent
unemployment 10.75
real estate prices then falling 55 sorry
stock prices falling 55
real estate prices falling 23 to 55
but i have to say it's a little weird to
also consider that
well we could see inflation inflect
downward before
going back up it's also a little weird
to think that yeah
we are having this crazy recovery to the
upside
what if we do overshoot to the down
before we stabilize again
it's a crazy scenario it's certainly a
scenario that again
sort of reiterates to me personally like
kevin
you probably want to reduce some of your
risk exposure
to options this is something i've been
talking about doing
for months reducing exposure to margin
reducing exposure to options very
important
consider it keep it in mind okay folks
i hope you enjoyed the breakdown of this
