Mark Dittli, editor-in-chief of “The Market NZZ” sheds light on the events for the “Neue Z\u00fcricher Zeitung” – and is pessimistic. It is quite possible that the S&P 500 will come close to its all-time high of 4800 points, which it reached on 4 January. But the situation is deceptive, this is only a bear market rally. In our picture the SPX in the daily chart with the 200-day line.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Dittli has two explanations for the upward movement that has been going on since 8 March. On the one hand, a lot of money has flowed from American government bonds into the stock market. In fact, the bond market has really crashed. Since the beginning of March, the yield on ten-year Treasury notes has risen by 76 basis points to 2.49 per cent. The yield on two-year Treasuries shot up by almost 100 basis points to 2.3 per cent. All in all, this is the third worst loss for US bonds in the past hundred years. On the other hand, cover buying had boosted equities. By the way, Goldman Sachs has also just stated a big bear market squeeze and predicted sales on Wall Street because of the upcoming tax deadline in mid-April.<\/p>\n
Supply shock like in the Yom Kippur War<\/strong><\/p>\nThis brings us to a look at the history books. Just as in the 1973 Yom Kippur War, the Ukraine war is triggering a supply shock on the energy markets, writes the NZZ. The oil shock at that time also hit the US economy at a time when it was already struggling with rising inflationary pressure and the Federal Reserve had begun to tighten monetary policy. Dittli says: “The effects of the Arab oil embargo drove the US inflation rate to 12% by the end of 1974 and the fed funds rate to almost 13%. As early as December 1973, the US economy fell into a recession that would last until March 1975.” All this sent the S&P 500 down 44 per cent in one year. Remarkable in this context, he said, was a recent study by the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas comparing today’s energy price shock with the 1970s.<\/p>\n
Too much too late<\/strong><\/p>\nThe Fed has just started the cycle of interest rate hikes – but Fed Chairman Jerome Powell has hesitated far too long and now has to turn the monetary policy wheel hard and fight inflation. The financial markets are facing a liquidity withdrawal in the coming months the likes of which they have not seen in decades. A successful soft landing is unlikely. In the almost sixty years since 1965, the Fed has carried out eleven interest rate hike cycles. Eight of these have led to a recession. Only three times – in 1965, 1983 and 1994 – had a “soft landing” been achieved.
\nDittli repeated his recommendation to use recovery rallies on the stock markets for sales and to build up the cash position in the portfolio. As always, we advise to keep dissenting voices in mind and to follow the real-time news closely. Bernstein Bank keeps an eye on the situation for you!<\/p>\n
