Fundamental Report: There is no denying that the global markets have entered an exciting new phase in monetary policy as central bankers across the world ramped up their fight against rapidly surging inflation. After being criticized for being slow to recognize inflation, the Federal Reserve and its central-banking peers have embarked on their most aggressive series of rate hikes since the 1980s. As a result, there’s really nothing historical you can point to for what’s going on in markets today – we are seeing multiple standard deviation moves across every asset class – presenting savvy traders with back to back money-making opportunities, almost on a daily basis. Aggressive moves specifically from the Fed in recent months have dramatically strengthened the dollar – raising concerns among leading Wall Street economists that the dollar will be the next asset bubble to burst. According to Morgan Stanley – “such U.S dollar strength has historically always ended in some kind of financial or economic crisis” and that’s the exact direction we are heading in again. In fact, it was against that strong dollar backdrop that the Bank of England was forced to revert back to unprecedented “Quantitative Easing” measures, to avert a full-blown global financial meltdown. With the Fed and ECB hiking aggressively into a weakening economy – the big question is who will be next to switch on their money printing machines and revert back to quantitative easing again? The one thing we do know is that extraordinary times create extraordinary opportunities and right now, this market is a traders’ paradise.
