S&P 500: missed an all-time high at the close by about one point.
Ten-year treasury: creeps / crept higher; a bit over 1.6%.
Asia, post-Covid: opening up. Apparently all of Asia is starting to open up; Malaysia is completely open.
$5 trillion in government spending bills in the last year or so still working its way through the economy; the most recent $1.5 trillion infrastructure bill was just signed by the president this week.
The Fed, easy money for as long as the eye(s) can see:
- even with tapering, they continue to buy assets: that buying won't be completed until next year, at the earliest, March, 2022, but then, the increased in the Fed rate will proceed very, very slowly; it will still be "easy money" as far as the eye can see
- the Fed needs to raise rates for a number of reasons: the most important? a high enough rate to allow a cut if temporary easing is needed (and it will be); in other words, putting that arrow back in the quiver;
- the Fed can't raise rates more than one percent for one simple reason: the US government won't have the cash to pay the interest .... without raising the debt ceiling
- some of that is finally starting to sink into the collective psyche of traders and investors
Semiconductors: on fire today; Morgan Stanley says the semiconductor shortage has been resolved.
Surge in oil prices: some say the "worst" is over. Flat for awhile, and then gradually come down next year.
Final trades on Fast Money: Apple, Merck, Ford, and Target.
