I’m slightly uncomfortable tweeting this but I will anyway 🤯 IF July 2022 CPI should use 1980-based CPI calculation… “July real-CPI = 18% 1980 real-CPI = 15% 1) July 2022 real-CPI is higher than 1980 CPI if using the same formula 2) July real-CPI is highest since 1950”

Bulls believe this rally is driven by fundamentals. Enter: Matt King of Citibank 🫰 $1 trillion in liquidity has entered over the last 3 months & is worth directly ~10% in global equities and ~50bps off investment grade credit spreads.⏳ Not a coincidence. Not fundamentals.

BTFP borrowing hits $100bil. About 50% of my bank clients won't use it because they fear possible "stigma" issues. That said, my guess as this number increases, some of them will use because most are heavily borrowed at the FHLB at much less favorable terms.
