“QUOTE” OF THE DAY: …we are in a precarious position in the U.S. with so many of our institutions going down. Many of those pushing against the system have no idea how precarious it is or what they will be destroying….. …Those defending it don’t know how precarious its position is or even what they’re defending, or why. But people lose respect for a reason. Peggy Noonan - WSJ

FED TALK? MEMBER DISTRICT TOPIC LINK Harker Philadelphia These {inflation} considerations make me a bit more conservative in my approach to policy, at least in the very near term. Although I cannot give you a definitive path for how policy will evolve, it might prove prudent to wait until the inflation data are stronger before we undertake a second rate hike. https://www.philadelphiafed.org/publications/speeches/harker/2016/02-16-16-an-economic-outlook Dudley New York Two main dangers to expansions: Inflation, adverse impacts Fed can’t control. Inflation risk low so current focus on adverse shocks. Assets/Liabilities of households crucial to economy absorbing shocks Household debt situation much better than previous years https://www.newyorkfed.org/newsevents/speeches/2016/dud160212 Rosengren Boston "In my own view, if inflation is slower to return to target, monetary policy normalization should be unhurried. A more gradual approach is an appropriate response to headwinds from abroad that slow exports, and financial volatility that raises the cost of funds to many firms." http://www.bostonfed.org/news/speeches/rosengren/2016/021616/index.htm FOMC Minutes - Jan - See Slide http://www.federalreserve.gov/newsevents/press/monetary/20160217a.htm Bullard St Louis Federal Open Market Committee’s (FOMC) case for monetary policy normalization in 2015 rested on several key assumptions and that two of these assumptions have now been called into question in 2016 https://www.stlouisfed.org/news-releases/2016/02/17/st-louis-feds-bullard-discusses-changing-imperatives-for-us-monetary-policy-normalization Williams San Francisco Later Today Mester Cleveland Friday Kaplan

MORE TALK MEMBER DISTRICT TOPIC LINK Kashkari Minneapolis Large banks must similarly be able to make mistakes—even very big mistakes—without requiring taxpayer bailouts and without triggering widespread economic damage.

PRETTY STRONG STUFF Source:

Language of dissent (Bullard) WHAT THE FED SAID Language of dissent (Bullard) “The Committee would be concerned if inflation were running persistently above or below this objective.” Real PCE decreasing – held down by costs of non-energy imports Housing – continued gradual recovery Manufacturing output declined CAPEX slower/Inventory investment decreased Energy pulling down inflation globally Financial markets hampered by oil and concerns about global growth Assessment of financial vulnerabilities as moderate on balance Estimate that negative effects of lower equity prices and FX would be offset by low oil prices and better fiscal results Expect real GDP to expand somewhat faster moving forward Forecast for inflation revised down slightly but would increase gradually through 2018 Premature to change outlook over the medium-term Assessed inconsistencies with consumer spending against strong gains in household income Extended discussion about China’s economy/financial imbalances and impact on EMEs Tighter financial conditions evident – stock market & credit markets Many see increasing downside risks economy Source: Federal Reserve

Oil deal is not a deal – expect lower prices A level of “stress” prevails in credit markets and will cause short-term problems. The Fed should change their “tune.” Thinking they will Bond market volatility will continue until they do No recession at this point Markets trading in a “news range”: Oil – Dollar – Fed – Interest Rates Markets need 2Q to reassess – no relief for now Politics will be a bigger market driver after super Tuesday.
