Stephen Miller’s Post

Here is my latest article in the Financial Review. The essential theme is that bond yields may be “sticky” even if the Fed (cautiously) eases monetary policy. That circumstance is down to a gargantuan US budget deficit at a time when the US economy is not far off full capacity. That neither of the US Presidential candidates has a coherent plan to address the deficit indicates “a bad moon on the rise”. Investors should “get their things together” and consciously diversify their portfolios through seeking exposures uncorrelated with bond and equity beta. #GSFM #USBudgetDeficit #PresidentialElection

Hi Steve What happens to the USD under your senarios. Surely the USD should fall along with gold and all commodities denominated in USDs. A lower USD would make treasuries more attractive to offshore investors where I presume a large amount of treasuries are held. Your right that the US has a free kick when it comes to financial markets and trade. The US is becoming less relevant as a global power as will the USD in time. Trump will make things much worst. Stagflation here we come.
