This piece originally appeared on August 10, 2023. There’s been a lot of hope and enthusiasm in the press and the stock market for a “soft-landing”. The idea is that the Federal Reserve may be able to start to bring down interest rates at just the right time and avoid a recession. Supporting that point of view would be an incredibly strong employment market, positive 2Q GDP growth, and continued massive consumer spending. Those are all valid points of view and if we do get the soft-landing scenario, those would be the reasons. On yesterday’s subscribers’ webinar, economist and DKI Board member, Mish Shedlock, said he thought the US was already in recession. That video will be made public next week, but in the meantime, let’s take a look at the evidence supporting his position: GDP vs GDI Mish points out that most economists and market participants focus on Gross Domestic Product (GDP) instead of Gross Domestic Income (GDI). The latter is the sum total of income for the country and over time, the two measures of economic production have to equal each other. However, there has a been a divergence lately, and GDI is negative. It’s possible that GDI is understated right now, but if GDP is overstated instead, then it’s probably already turned negative. Graph from MishTalk.com The Bank Narrative Has Shifted Earlier this year, when several large banks failed, there were widespread reports that they were tightening lending standards. The feeling at the time was that reducing access to credit would slow the economy. As we’ve gotten to August, the narrative has changed. Now, banks are reporting reduced customer demand for credit. Almost 60% of banks say they have falling demand for loans. The small businesses that wanted financing ...Full story available on Benzinga.com

The Sovereign Debt Explosion Issue This was the most fascinating week I’ve seen in the sovereign debt market in decades. Sovereign debt is just a fancy name for government bonds. Are we looking at the beginning of a multi-country sovereign debt disaster? Plus, the Saudis extend an oil production cut, a government bailout still leads to bankruptcy, and an update on employment that Jerome Powell is watching. In this week’s 5 Things: US Treasuries downgraded for only the second time. Top rating gone. Bank of Japan capitulates again. Japanese government bonds plummeting. S&P 500 earnings beats are manufactured lies. Saudi message to the White House, “drop dead”. Yellow – A massive corporate bankruptcy. Is the media blaming the wrong people? Despite widespread economic issues, the employment situation remains strong. DKI premium subscribers receive the full 5 Things on Monday morning and have already seen our analysis on both big sovereign debt problems. If you want to understand these market moving events better and stay updated on how to protect your portfolio from them, we welcome you to subscribe. Astute readers will notice this week’s version of the “5 Things” goes to 6. Either we’re delivering 20% more value, or we can’t count. You decide. Very astute readers will notice we used the same line last week to which we respond, “thanks for reading every week”. Fitch Downgrades US Debt: Fitch took down its rating on US debt from AAA to AA+. The last downgrade of US debt took place more than a decade ago. Fitch made some comments about the recent debt ceiling drama, but the real issue can be seen in the chart below: Once higher rates work through the system, interest expense will be > $1T/year. DKI Takeaway: Several government officials squawked in protest, but here are the facts: Debt will expand from $31T to $35T in under two years. Off-balance sheet liabilities are over $200T. Total liabilities are almost a quarter of a quadrillion dollars which is unpayable and a coming disaster. The government now has to print dollars to pay interest on the extra debt which is the definition of a Ponzi scheme. There will be a stealth default where the US will pay what’s owed in debased dollars which will have little value. Of course Fitch downgraded!

Japan Is In Trouble DKI has been following Japan because with massive debt, low growth, and too-low interest rates for too long, they are the model the US has been following. This week, the Bank of Japan capitulated and decided to allow the 10-year bond to trade above 50bp. Japan desperately needs higher bond yields to strengthen the yen which has fallen from 115 to the dollar last year ...Full story available on Benzinga.com
