Kevin O'Leary "We're Going Into A CAPITULATION..." How To Prepare - YouTube

Channel: Corns Investing

[125]
What鈥檚 up everyone, we are proceeding聽 into the second half of 2022 with caution,聽聽
[130]
as that鈥檚 after the worst first聽 six months to a year in decades.聽聽
[135]
So if that鈥檚 not bad enough and the capitulation聽 hasn鈥檛 come yet then we can expect some tough聽聽
[141]
times ahead in the second half of 2022. So in聽 this video I share with you a macro perspective of聽聽
[145]
what鈥檚 going on and what you should be considering聽 in your portfolio right now, before that聽聽
[150]
capitulation hits us. You need to be ready people,聽 so please stick around so you don鈥檛 miss that.
[159]
A lot of risky sentiments were seen in most areas聽 of the market, driven by soaring inflation and the聽聽
[165]
Fed's aggressive monetary policy towards fears聽 of slowing growth and increased borrowing costs.聽聽
[172]
This suggested that a new regime of monetary聽 policy could make a soft landing. But at the聽聽
[178]
recent European Central Bank Forum in June, the聽 much hoped-for "soft landing" hit some turbulence,聽聽
[184]
following remarks from the various bank聽 governors. And here鈥檚 what they had to say:
[190]
The Fed Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell聽 said: "We are raising interest rates,聽聽
[194]
and the aim of that is to slow growth down,聽 so that supply will have a chance to catch up.聽聽
[200]
We hope that growth could still remain positive.聽 But if you look at the strength of the economy,聽聽
[204]
households are in very strong financial shape,聽 they've still got a lot of excess savings,聽聽
[209]
from forced saving of not being able to travel and聽 things like that, and fiscal transfers. The same聽聽
[215]
thing is true with business, with very low rates聽 of default and lots of cash on the balance sheet.聽聽
[221]
The labor market is also tremendously strong,聽 still averaging very high job growth per month.聽聽
[226]
Overall, the U.S. economy is in the position to聽 withstand tighter monetary policy, we think."聽聽
[232]
Which is interesting and聽 may imply plenty of buffer聽聽
[235]
to be able to shock the impact of聽 increased interest rates and inflation.
[240]
The ECB President Christine Lagarde added that:聽 "I don't think we are going to go back to that聽聽
[244]
environment of low inflation. There are forces聽 that have been unleashed... that we're facing now聽聽
[249]
that are going to change the picture and the聽 landscape within which we operate. Certainly聽聽
[253]
in this part of the world, the energy shock that聽 we have suffered, are suffering, and will continue聽聽
[258]
to suffer has had a major impact. I think this is聽 not specific to Europe, but there is certainly a聽聽
[264]
dependency of European countries and the euro area聽 to external supply from foes. That is certainly聽聽
[269]
a strong driving force of inflation on the price聽 of energy and food... as well as supply shocks."
[276]
And the Bank of England Governor Andrew Bailey:聽聽
[279]
"I think the U.K. economy is probably weakening聽 rather earlier and somewhat more than others.聽聽
[284]
Unfortunately, there is going to be a further聽 step-up in U.K. inflation later this year聽聽
[289]
because that's a product of the way the energy聽 price cap interacts with the energy prices we have聽聽
[294]
observed over the last few months. I would imagine聽 that will put a bit more persistence [on the U.K.聽聽
[299]
inflation rate] and we will have to explain聽 that." So some interesting perspectives there聽聽
[305]
on how the current inflation in impacting聽 the various regions and what could happen.
[310]
But taking it back to the markets, we have seen聽 The S&P 500 (SP500) plunge 21% since January,聽聽
[316]
losing more than $9T in market capitalization,聽 and suffering its worst first half of a year since聽聽
[322]
1970, while the Nasdaq Composite (COMP.IND) and聽 Dow Jones (DJI) fell 16% and 30%, respectively.聽聽
[329]
The 10-year Treasury yield climbed from 1.5% to聽 around 3.00%, and Bitcoin has tumbled nearly 56%聽聽
[337]
YTD to under $20,000. But one of the only聽 pockets of the market that gained in the聽聽
[343]
first-half was commodities, with crude聽 oil going from $75 to well over $100聽聽
[348]
a barrel and U.S. gas prices nearly tripling聽 before falling back in recent weeks.
[354]
So as we head into H2, many are worried that聽 central bank actions could push the global聽聽
[358]
economy into a downward spiral. The latest聽 reading from the Atlanta Fed's GDPNow tracker聽聽
[365]
is now in negative territory, predicting聽 Q2 real GDP growth of -1.0% as of June 30,聽聽
[372]
down from +0.3% on June 27. If that print comes聽 to fruition, it would mark two straight quarters聽聽
[379]
of negative real GDP growth (-1.6% in Q1)聽 making it a technical recession for Atlanta.聽聽
[384]
It's possible that "we see two negative聽 qtrs in a row," as "there are signs that,聽聽
[388]
the foundation of the [job creation] expansion is聽 cracking," as small businesses, which make up a聽聽
[393]
large chunk of GDP, are getting hit the hardest by聽 margin squeezes amid persistently high inflation.
[400]
A good checkpoint on this would be Earnings聽 season, which kicks off later this month,聽聽
[404]
as this could present the next trading聽 risk, though you never know when buy-the-dip聽聽
[409]
institutional managers and retail investors聽 will step in and gain control of the markets.聽聽
[415]
"If we have any words of comfort, it聽 is that, universal losses at this pace聽聽
[419]
rarely take place in successive quarters,聽 but this is not the same as saying that,聽聽
[423]
further losses should not be anticipated. "This聽 still very much looks to be the middle of the聽聽
[428]
story, , as we are yet to see any signs that聽 the weather is about to turn for the better."
[433]
During bear markets, stocks have聽 declined as little as 20% and as much as聽聽
[438]
57% during the financial crisis of 2008-2009.聽聽
[442]
Likewise, the peak to trough period has been as聽 short as slightly over one month (at the beginning聽聽
[446]
of the COVID-19 crisis) and as long as 30.5 months聽 in the wake of the dot com bubble crash of 2000.聽聽
[453]
Each one is unique and runs its course聽 differently from all the others.
[457]
How do we keep calm and, in the midst聽 of all this?? "buy when there's blood in聽聽
[463]
the streets" as it is commonly said? One聽 consideration is by investing with the mindset of聽聽
[466]
a landlord rather than a short-term trader. This聽 is because, bear markets are a fabulous time to聽聽
[473]
accumulate real estate investment trusts ("REITs")聽 into a diversified stock portfolio. This may go聽聽
[478]
against some commonly held misbeliefs about real聽 estate during periods of rising interest rates聽聽
[483]
and economic weakness. But here are three reasons聽 why we believe now is a great time to buy REITs:
[489]
First, REITs historically outperform during聽 periods of high inflation as real estate values聽聽
[495]
and rent rates rise along with general prices. Secondly, REITs historically outperform in the 3,聽聽
[502]
6, and 12 months after increases聽 in the Federal Funds rate;聽聽
[506]
as rent growth during these periods more than聽 offsets any headwind of rising borrowing costs.聽
[512]
Third and finally, REITs historically聽 outperform during late cycle periods聽聽
[517]
and recessions as most tenants do not want聽 to give up their real estate locations聽聽
[522]
by defaulting on their lease聽 unless they absolutely have to.
[527]
REITs' rental revenue tends to be more stable聽 during recessions than the average non-real聽聽
[532]
estate company. Moreover, during periods of聽 elevated inflation, businesses agree to pay聽聽
[539]
higher rent rates so as to continue the use聽 of their valued real estate infrastructure.
[544]
So some interesting considerations there for聽 you but the most important thing to do in a bear聽聽
[549]
market is to prevent yourself from panicking聽 and making rash decisions with your money.聽聽
[555]
Do not feel that you need to lock in unrealized聽 losses in order to prevent further losses.聽聽
[561]
Instead, take on the mindset of a landlord. Ignore聽 the digital red ink and focus on the operations of聽聽
[568]
the businesses and real estate that you own.聽 Only consider selling if you are sure that聽聽
[573]
the business model is permanently impaired聽 and likely to go to zero. So there you go.
