WOW! What the Fed JUST Said.
FULL TRANSCRIPT
well there we have it the Federal
Reserve catalyst is out of the way and I
have to say some things went as expected
some things did not go as expected here
first of all we know we are coming off
of good earnings for AMD and Microsoft
fantastic earnings here and Nvidia is
benefiting way more than AMD or
Microsoft are benefiting but what did
the Federal Reserve just say well the
FED told us the time has come now that's
the time for rate Cuts now this this is
mindblowing to me that they actually
teed this up they totally teed up the
September rate cut I was not expecting
that I was expecting a neutral to
positive or neutral to doish Fed we got
dovish and positive and teed up rate cut
baby now let's explain how they teed
this up is it was pretty remarkable
first they started with the statement
the statement started off pretty obvious
that we were about to have a fed because
they were completely removed the idea
that they were going to be highly
attentive to inflation risks and we were
really surprised when we saw this
instead they moved to this sort of 5050
aspect where they're attentive to both
sides of the Dual mandate which
basically implies they're equally
balanced between yeah uh we're bullish
uh on jobs and bullish on inflation
they've equally balanced this now now of
course they're not going to declare
Victory but wow what did they tell us in
the meeting they told us that uh
inflation here we go uh inflation has
eased substantially we're attentive to
both sides we've got good growth
2.6% investment in equipment has picked
back up inflation has eased notably and
we've made considerable progress on
inflation this was mentioned maybe three
or four times so really trying to show
that they wanted to bring this idea that
they're so heavily focused on inflation
down into balance and later the meeting
he even said we're pretty much balanced
now between the two uh we're moving
closer to where it will be appropriate
to reduce policy rates he went to even
more detail later rates rate Cuts could
be on the table as soon as the next
meeting and we are getting closer to the
point of where we can reduce rates he
says if we get a disappointing reading
obviously that could weigh against a
September meeting cut we want more good
data we've seen progress what I'm
basically Gathering From This is as long
as you have an acceptable jobs report
and an acceptable CPI report they will
clearly signal by Jackson Hole the third
week of October that yes the rate cut
for September is in the bag the progress
is equal now keep in mind when I get
through this summary I'm also going to
go through my thoughts on the market and
trades and things like that so we'll
cover that just want to get through some
of what jpow just said uh and then of
course remember today is coupon
expiration day questions email staff at
me kevin.com otherwise get in before the
price goes up you lifetime access so
even if I'm right yesterday and wrong
today today or whatever it is you get me
for life in the course member live
stream and you get my ideas uh and you
get my perspectives so cons if you like
my perspectives consider checking that
out at meetkevin.com or if you want
something more detailed go to The
meetkevin.com Mastermind the next group
is almost full for October all right uh
we last raised rates a year ago in the
July meeting today we're in a completely
different economy he says we've made a
lot of progress we've made progress on
all three forms of inflation all three
core forms of inflation uh Goods
non-housing services and Housing
Services we can afford to begin
adjusting rates the upside risk to
inflation has decreased the time is
coming at which it is beginning to
become appropriate to cut back those
restrictions uh headline number uh on on
jobs have come down and the majority
supported not moving today now this is
really interesting because it somewhat
implies that some were for actually
cutting today or maybe hiking but I I
out hiking it was probably someone was
like oh why don't we cut today and
every's like h no let's consensus cut in
September he says we're starting to see
the lags start showing up the lagging
effects of higher rates on the economy
start showing up he says that uh the
labor market has seen a normalization
was asked about the PM rule we actually
specifically thought that he would get
asked about it we wrote this on our fed
Bingo someone asked about the S rule
trigger literally got asked about it but
I'll tell you look at how I lost Bingo
here I had two chances at bingo I had a
shot at bingo across the board right
here on the second row this was a shot
at Bingo and this was a shot at Bingo
but I literally lost bingo in two ways
because Nick T did not sit next to the
New York Times Blondie I'm like what the
hell like seriously he always sits next
to jennif from The New York Times this
is the first time in years Nick T had a
different woman between him and her what
is this this is crazy anyway so that was
a little bit of a disappointment because
I would have had double Bingo but anyway
drum pal suggests this situation is
unique no decision made yet on whether
we'll do a 25 BP cut or 50 that we are
consens consensus driven as soon as the
next meeting uh oh uh he was
asked uh would you consider cutting as
soon as the next meeting uh is there a
growing consensus and he said yes there
is a growing consensus the time is
rapidly approaching to cut as long as
the data doesn't show a sharp weakening
so uh in my opinion now here's how
trades get played and this is tough okay
this is this is tough to play so I want
to make this crystal
clear so we're going to set this up on
screen here this is my take for the
trades okay so last week we said uh
whatever earnings are they drive the
market this week fed will introduce uh V
but that's it maybe short-term trade but
earnings will prevail so what do we
seeing well we saw markets rally after
uh AMD and Microsoft yesterday uh what
do we expect
today uh markets right now are trading
down going into the close why my my
opinion markets are waiting for qcom
meta and arm and then tomorrow we get
apple and Amazon tomorrow so in other
words true
bullishness may not fully unlock until
we clear all of these earnings so a lot
of people are saying Kevin in your
opinion not Financial advice when is it
time to buy the dip when dip buy I think
there's an argument to say you dip by
potentially each of the good earnings
right maybe each good earnings set so a
little today uh based on AMD msft a
little Tomorrow based on arm qcom meta
today if the earnings are good and then
a little Thursday uh SL Friday based on
Apple Amazon if the earnings are good
right now we remember what I've said
last since last week I said uh if
earnings bad recession if earnings good
uh flip bullish right and then I also
said fed will just add fuel to the fire
uh of whatever earnings are I maintain
this belief now so far we are trending
in the bullish Direction so I think the
markets as long as we continue to get
good earnings will TR bullish in through
the week everything iwm the q's chips
interest rate sensitives I don't really
care what it is I think it all goes up
into Friday as long as arm cuom meta
Amazon and apple don't get reamed if
they get reamed you got big problems so
that's my take so uh that's why I think
if you're looking for sort of longer
term dip buys maybe every time you get
good earnings you dip Buy
another option uh is uh you know other
option wait until earnings are done uh
and then another thing you could do if
you want less volatility so for Less uh
less V in a trading portfolio I'd
probably go go at least next Friday
unless you have Diamond uh balls or you
know uh some some like uh uh you know
death wish or whatever uh not saying I
don't I do crazy things sometimes but
anyway uh
probably a good idea because there will
be volatility and really that volatility
is going to be based off of earnings now
uh markets were really tenuous going
into the FED meeting today uh I think
that's because markets are like are you
know what if we get rugged what if we
get rugged didn't expect a rug didn't
get rugged but I also didn't expect them
to tee up the September rate cut the way
they did and frankly they fully gave us
a Fed they fully gave us a an all clear
for a Fed rate cut uh in um uh in
September so now I'm going to take a
brief look just to see at where yields
sit right now and the odds of a
September rate cut September yeah
September rate cut odds just jumped
we're now at
1.16 after the F or at the beginning of
JAL talking we were only at about 1.04
rate Cuts uh that's now jumped to
1.16 we're now at uh almost price pring
in two full rate cuts by uh November and
almost pricing in three full by uh
December and then 3 and a half for
January so we'll see where markets go
but uh I think there's going to be a lot
of tenuousness on these earnings if we
could get these earnings out of the
way finally finally we could have the
all clear and we could get rid of all
Hedges it's my take uh still got some
Hedges and uh as we continue continue to
get good earnings I'm going to roll off
those Hedges so let's see what happens
anyway if you want to know exactly what
I'm doing make sure you're part of this
