Can The Fed Stop The Bear? | Larry Williams | Real Trading (03.30.20)

[@kojosephine6255]

It's a genuine advice to look into FED's data. Truly appreciate Larry will point it out.

[@martinrimes8650]

One of the best in analysis and certainly trading. Thank you for this webinar Stock Charts and Larry.

You've got to love Larry's charts....Always original and always a leading indicator.

Always like listening to Larry.

Fantastic video with intelligent, thoughtful, original analysis. I have viewed this 3 times and I am going to watch it again!

Larry you are fantastic. Thank you for sharing your wisdom.

[@michaelwhitehead1373]

Excellent and sound presentation. Great correlation of PE ratios and the current valuation of stocks! Gives confidence to buy the dips and possibly build a position over the next few weeks.

[@humanflytube]

Larry - Thanks for your analysis and insight. I understood that, total amount of money USA has is ~3- 4T , rest are credits ( ~15- 20T). So, the FED just pumped in total about 4.3T. Is that 4.3T is credits ? are those come with strings attached ?

One more question..with the rally off the bottom, don’t you think it will retrace?

Hello, I was wondering if you know where this moon paper is by the fed. i could not find it. I was curious.

[@jasonriehl637]

So, the monetization of debt is good? The PE looks low at the moment but a continued slow down will make the current PEs look high. Fed was created in 1913.

[@JackRainfield]

Interesting presentation. My pet peeve is any chart that doesn't label the x and y axis. Virtually every chart shown in this video has no labels. I took a statistics course in college about lying with statistics. It focused on truthfulness in statistical analysis and how that concept is violated every day. Although I think I can trust your words I have to tell you that your video would have probably made it into my professor's classroom. LOL

With the covid 19 and whole world shutting down, how can we increase the productivity?

[@swgetf]

Work at home.

[@makedollarsandsense7194]

Productivity will certainly take a hit no matter what we do at the government level. Not everyone can work from home.

[@KerouacsAccomplice]

Hedge your bets, get rich, out your feet up.

[@chadwiekierak9046]

Probably just talking to myself here, but... A lot of talk about the price in the P/E ratio, but not about the earnings. Yes, stock prices have fallen but the world shutting down will bring earnings down with it resulting in valuations that aren't as low as one would think. Also, you make it sound like the FED has the magic formula. Is it really as easy as keeping rates down and flooding the world with dollars? No consequences to these actions? I'm not convinced.

[@春天的花冬天的雪]

It looks like the end of May is a buying opportunity due to pull back?

[@mmabagain]

Did you take into account the enormous losses so many companies are having due to being forced to close temporarily? Won't these losses show up in future stock prices?

[@davidscher1620]

When an index gets and stays back above it's recent all time highs we will know for sure... That being said, let's not hold our breathe.

[@ianburget4074]

They don’t show recession on charts til several quarters after the fact. This is unprecedented event.

[@Jimo225]

we may avoid a recession by definition because the stop happened so fast. R is defined as 2 quarters of negative growth. how can we slow down any more next quarter than we already did. therefore no recession.

[@garyf4517]

Larry isn’t it different now? The fed is putting more money into the system but I don’t see productivity increase with ppl not working...if productivity does not increase ...what then?

[@patrickmcrae4403]

Inflation goes up and asset value beats cash

[@ianburget4074]

The injections of cash by the Fed is deflationary b/c the cash does not go to the people like they say. The inflation is in the asset prices .

[@williamhutcheson8361]

What you failed to say is that the level of the stock market is totally disconnected from the real economy. The increase in debt by $2T will place our country firmly in the club of countries that have a debt to GDP ratio above 100%.

[@KerouacsAccomplice]

William Hutcheson by the end of this you’ll be lucky if your country isn’t included in that category.

A word of caution for everyone,. the economy was already weakening....low PMI, inverted yield curve, huge debt, ,.,, and then the coronavirus hit...... many companies and small businesses are now paralyzed, millions of people are out of work, virus testing is backlogged, no cure as yet, and the new normal will not be the same as it was....... sorry this is not going to be a quick bounce back to normalcy.... I don't want to scare anyone, we will get through this eventually, but buying stocks now is a horrible idea. . Joel

@@blazetrader Larry , great presentation, really, thanks for putting this out! We really differ on where it goes from here... the reason for the 50% is because of the Fed, no doubt, which created a safety net/floor for the market... but as we creep up more, every investor will start asking is this Justified?.....And the answer is clearly no. This virus and it's affect on business is not going away anytime soon.... the economic rebound is going to be anemic at best over the next few months, possibly to a year or more, .........and, by the way, have I introduced you to my little friend, the sma 200 line, who is just around the corner and often doesn't like prices to just pass through.... .

[@spencerwinston4334]

Larry, thank you for your full spectrum presentation. Perhaps, though you left out the bankrupt moral and philosophical example set forth by the Fed with this huge expansion in govt. liabilities. Trust and solid ethics that are the hallmark of Adam Smith and the Austrian School economists have been sliced by the Fed's Keynesian seat of their pants, panic experiments. By creating the illusion of free money and a genie that appears in downturns, the Fed undermines ultimate trust in the system as liabilities grow exponetially. At the heart of this facade, Larry, to any outside observer, is an obvious, confidence carnival game.The Fed thinks the public are rubes and marks in this confidence game, and in the process have exposed this intent to anyone with a modicum of street smarts. John Law tried this confidence game hundreds of years ago in France, and he ended up on the run from pitchforks. Larry, for the sake of the next generation, it's time to restore integrity and a rules based monetary policy. Why do we need Leninists disguised as Keynesians to set the rate of money when the market knows more than Marxists pretending to be erudite with their Windsor knots and bow ties. Larry we are using up the seed corn of the next generation to keep this over levered casino afloat. You always stress money management, so by your standards the Fed has broken all the prudent money management rules to save face and keep this confidence game going. Anyways, Larry thank you for all your guiding light education through the years and helping traders across the world understand the "free markets."

[@spencerwinston4334]

@@blazetrader Thank you Larry for your response, and for enlightening so many traders across the world with your leading edge trading techniques. Just as an aside, I believe hedge fund manager extraordinaire Bruce Koevner once implied in an interview, the "law of least effort" from physics is seemingly quite pervasive in life from politics, business, and even Fed policy. Take the "easy" step now and not plan for the after effects on the next generation. Mr. Koevner's observations ring true now after trying to contemplate how these decisions are arrived by the Fed in the boardroom in view of the compelling Austrian School research of past monetary policy "mistakes" of central bankers. You are right though how the big picture philosophy does not help us in the short term trading game, and to stay focused on trading principles you have taught. Will miss your must see program Larry TV now with your "retirement," but know you still have lots of aces up your sleeve as you continue the never ending quest for market truth. As Ralph Waldo Emerson noted and your trading service highlights, "...deep simplicity is the supreme elegance." Sail on, sail on sailor. Look forward to your next trading breakthrough even in your "retirement." All the best Larry from a long time subscriber.

[@phillychee440]

good info and not to disrespect.. buti think in this video Larry is clinging on too much to history and not enough to different potential scenarios that could play out. also, the real inflation has been in real estate and that's eating a big chuck away from your purchasing power and jacking up your cost of living. does it matter if your bread stays the same price but your rent shot up for the avg joe? yes!! at the end of the day the cash out of his/her pocket increased. decades ago avg people used to be able to buy a house with a year or two worth of salary.

I don't believe you believe what you're saying. What are your positions presently?

[@claesisacsson]

oh, you're chart don't show the percentile for (almost) recession due to date and you're way above 1M job claims. Wonder what happens with thoose next time measured. and when crisis is over and all thoose who though they had jobs to go back to can't. Small buisnesses in bankruptcy and soforth. Don't get me wrong I do belive FED will solve this one too, but at a cost. There has to be a whole lotta buying to make up for that. The two charts one gold goes in summer and the one that we're in the top of a cycle, I really appreciated and can get behind. All in all good job.

[@zinc1024]

Larry casually overlook in his unemployment vs. Fed injection timing vs. stock price graph that in both the 2000-2002 and 2007-2009 cases, stock prices FIRST did another SUBSTANTIALLY deeper low within about a year or so to complete those bear markets. He points to the FOLLOWING bull market, an ignores that fact. Of course there's going to be a bull market in stocks coming... AFTER this bear finishes, and per the charts Larry has shown and the timing, that's going to still take awhile (about a year?), and will come with substantially lower prices in equities first. I'm just pointing out here what the data he shows actually indicates.

[@zinc1024]

On additional point: the PE ratio charts are based on OLD EARNINGS, not what we expect to see here in the Q2, much less Q3 earnings announcements, which will be HORRIBLE. And thus vastly change these graphs. So it may be that stocks are NOT "cheap" right now at all. Of course it all beg the question of what about earnings in Q4 and '21Q1? Vast unknown, but right now that looks grim.
