The US Dollar Is Becoming Cheaper In Gold Terms
After the release of the “In Gold we Trust” report, Incrementum Liechtenstein surpises gold bulls with a compendium of some of the most compelling charts in the form of a Chartbook.
Some of the key takeaways of the Chartbook:
- The FED is NOT out of bullets, it is just very reluctant to use them before we are at least close to a full fledged crisis; currency swaps, QE and negative interest rates are all on the table.
- We therefore expect increasing market turmoil before the FED reverses course!
- Traditional protection for equities (puts) by now are somewhat expensive, especially in comparison to some short term interest rates (eurodollar). In our opinion it is quite a safe assumption, that the FED would reverse course if US equities sold off further 10-15%.
- Shorting equities is a tricky business in an increasing volatility environment but could prove to be an interesting macro play until the FED gives in.
- A major deflationary event and (potentially internationally coordinated) reaction of central banks could finally be the trigger for the transition from deflation to stagflation!
