Good jobs number but still from same sectors/Inflation stats, savings rate/Rate hike odds (opens the original)
Read excerpt
ADP said 90k net new private sector jobs were hired, 15k above the estimate and after a 36k print in August. Positively, companies of all sizes added workers.The service sector contributed 59k jobs, again led by education/health services where payrolls rose by 55k. This was followed by leisure/hospitality with 22k. Information job growth rose by 3k. It was more mixed otherwise with job losses of 16k in financial services and by 11k in professional/business services. In the trade/transportation/u
John Williams calms move in short end/Housing & autos/Cruising/Overseas data (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I think the John Williams comments, the president of the NY Fed, yesterday really matters and assuming no data surprises from now until the October 28th meeting, I don’t think they raise rates again at that gathering, especially right before the midterm elections. If they do hike again by year end, it would be more likely December. The 2 yr yield is down 6 bps since he spoke, and this is what it responded to from him, “With the policy action we took at our September meeting, there is no need for

Read excerpt
Oura’s IPO is a casualty of the segment of the market that trades terribly (responding to higher interest rates and energy prices), saying “it is postponing its previously announced initial public offering on Nasdaq, despite strong demand, due to uncertainty in the IPO market.”Now saying they have ‘strong demand’ but there is ‘uncertainty in the IPO market’ sounds like a Yogi Berra quote, ‘the restaurant is so crowded that no one goes there anymore.’ It seems to be mostly a price issue and that
A few important things of note (opens the original)
Read excerpt
To those who keep telling me that interest rates are just back to the long term normal, I agree but as it comes after 15 years of abnormal, therein lies the problem for those whose debt is coming due this year and next that was priced prior to 2022. The refi options are where the rate shock is. Just imagine the real estate operator who priced a 3% loan five years ago and is repricing at 8% this year, an ongoing adjustment seen over the past few years for those whose debt came due.
