The Kobeissi Letter (@KobeissiLetter) posted at 11:59 PM on Sun, Sep 15, 2024:

The difference between the 2-year Treasury yield and the Fed interest rates dropped to -1.69%, the most in at least 35 years.

This gap is now even larger than in 2008 and in 1989, a few months before the recession began.

The 2-year Treasury yield is considered a leading indicator for the next Feds interest rate moves.

In other words, the bond market expects that the Fed will be cutting rates at a rapid pace in the coming months.

This has been driven by increasing evidence of the deteriorating labor market and many indicators suggesting this trend will continue.

Is the Fed behind the curve?

This is absolutely incredible:

The S&P 500 has seen FOUR market cap swings of $2 trillion or more since August 1st.

In fact, since August 1st, these 4 swings have moved a total of $12.7 TRILLION in market cap.

Last week, the index added $1.8 trillion, more than the total https://t.co/n4DIUfLkVl

SPX Top

By the 1st rate cut in 2001, S&P 500 already topped. $SPX got a bounce w/ the 1st cut for 19 days. Then selling resumed. In 2007, $SPY topped 17 days after the cut (link). In both cases, the #FOMC cut only produced a bounce followed by a CRASH
