- Friday, March 1, 10:42 AM "(There's) a storm coming," says Stan Druckenmiller, "maybe bigger than the storm we had in 2008." ZIRP is distorting not just stocks, but gold, real estate, everything - "they're all subsidized." He's quick to point out this isn't a forecast as "subsidization" could go on for a long time. Investors will "rue the day" they listened to the idea they need to plow money into risk because interest rates are so low. 3 Comments
- Friday, February 15, 11:18 AM Equity flows into domestic stock funds trickled to near-zero last week, far from the $3B-$8B range seen during January. World equity funds, however, continued to see large flows, $5.1B last week. BlackRock nixes the "great rotation" idea, noting large stock fund inflows are coming out of cash balances, not bond funds. 6 Comments
- Tuesday, February 12, 11:52 AM "You want to be borrowing cash and hold almost anything against it," says Bridgewater co-CIO Bob Prince on a client conference call. While not Tepper's "balls to the wall" line, it's a pretty loud statement from a master asset-allocator shop like Bridgewater. Previously Ray Dalio called this year a "game-changer" in which money would reallocated to risk assets. 2 Comments
- Thursday, February 7, 8:13 AM More from Grantham: Courtesy of the donkey-beatings, all global assets are once again becoming overpriced, but not uniformly so. Pockets of value can be found in emerging markets (EEM) and Japan (DXJ), and the great global franchise companies. Much of everything else is "brutally overpriced," with U.S. stocks selling at an implied negative 7-year imputed return ... As for fixed income - fugetaboutit!." 5 Comments [Global & FX, U.S. Economy]
- Tuesday, February 5, 9:58 PM All Markel (MKL) CIO Tom Gayner ever seems to do is handily beat both equity and fixed-income benchmarks over time. 2012 was no exception, and his theme for 2013 (CC transcript) is the avoidance of credit and rate risk. He's taken the duration of Markel's bond portfolio down to a record-low 3 years and invested in only the highest-rated credits. "Taking credit risk for small amounts of basis points - it doesn't seem like that good an idea to me." 3 Comments [Financials]
- Saturday, February 2, 9:00 AM "We told you so." Seriously? Barron's thumps its chest in the sort of self-congratulatory, bullish article that could give a fan of stocks pause. "If there's a great rotation going on from bonds to stocks, we may be only in the top of the first inning," says Jason Trennert. The 60/40 stocks/bonds mix is out of favor with many institutional investors, notably big college endowments, which now have 27% of assets in stocks vs. 45% a decade ago. 156 Comments
- Friday, February 1, 10:52 AM If the NAAIM Survey of Manager Sentiment was "off the charts" bullish in the high 80s, what is it now? The index rises to the unheard of level of 104.25, meaning the average respondent is now leveraged long. The most bearish manager is 60% net long - the most bullish position for the most bearish respondent ever. 97 Comments
- Saturday, January 19, 12:30 PM "High-yield bond yields are lower than the S&P's earning yield for the first time ever," says a very bullish Oscar Schafer at the Barron's Roundtable (earlier). He says no one is talking about stocks at cocktail parties, but he does hear conversation about fixed income (that's some party). Pension funds hiding in bonds for "riskless returns" are in for a surprise. 7 Comments [Quick Ideas]
- Friday, January 18, 8:26 AM The "Great Rotation" is getting legs as $11.3B has gone into global stock mutual funds in the last 2 weeks - the largest 2-week inflow since April 2000 (how'd that one work out?). The theory - open for discussion - is mutual fund flows reflect "Mom and Pop" activity, while ETF flows - money left in the last week - are more dominated by the institutional and trading set. 6 Comments
- Tuesday, January 15, 4:36 PM Professional bear Albert Edwards generates headlines calling European stocks "unambiguously cheap." His more subtle message is the idea pension funds and such have swung the needle too far in favor of bonds over stocks, a move not yet fully played out, but that will leave equity fans with an incredible opportunity. 1 Comment [Global & FX]
- Wednesday, January 2, 9:31 AM U.S. pension funds have just 38% exposure to equities vs. 60% only 7 years ago, notes former Templeton chief Mark Holowesko. Fixed income exposure is 41% vs. 28% 7 years ago. The S&P 500 risk premium (earnings yield less 10-year Treasury yield), he says, is at an extreme level of favoring stocks over bonds. More (I, II, III) on the rush into fixed income with yields at historical lows. 6 Comments
- Monday, December 10, 2012, 8:22 AM "Death of Equities?" Assets in fixed income hedge funds are set to overtake those in equity strategies for the first time in the history of the industry, according to HFR. The move jibes with other stories from 2012 about the abandoning of stocks for the "safety" of fixed income. 9 Comments
- Monday, November 26, 2012, 3:18 PM GMO has "given up" on the bond market, says Ben Inker, co-head of asset allocation at the $104B money manager. Other than Japan (and barely there), he's not a fan of equities either, and 40% of his funds are currently "dry powder." That stocks look cheap is predicated on today's profit margins being sustainable, and "we don't think they're sustainable anywhere." The last time he held more cash was late 2007. 3 Comments [U.S. Economy, Global & FX]
- Tuesday, November 20, 2012, 5:11 PM What is the risky asset, asks Jim Grant, scratching his head over the worldwide move into fixed-income paper "certified" as safe (I, II, III), even as the actions of central banks make them "certifiably unsafe." Calling the fiscal cliff the Y2K of 2012, Grant says time is better spent searching for cheap assets (MetLife previously). "Stocks bought well are going to do well. Bonds yielding nothing are not." 1 Comment [Quick Ideas]
- Tuesday, November 20, 2012, 9:03 AM Another story to sock away and revisit if bond yields ever race higher, U.K. pension funds have more assets allocated to fixed-income than stocks for the first time in 50 years (U.S. plans made the crossover a few months back). It's easy to place to blame on crowd-following fund managers, but perverse regulations also force money into "safe" assets like government debt. (a kind word for the rush to safety) Comment! [Global & FX]
- Wednesday, November 14, 2012, 8:42 AM "Interest income is in a full-fledged bear market and dividend income is in a massive bull market," says David Rosenberg, turning bullish on stocks at the expense of Treasurys for the first time in forever. The S&P yield hasn't had this great of a spread over the 5-year Treasury since the late 1950s. 4 Comments
