This month each of the advanced central banks in Japan, Europe and the US will all meet separately and determine their monetary policy moving forward. The market recognizes the Fed can not tighten as manufacturing and the US economy are slowing down. Though the Fed threatens a tightening, the US$ is weakening and US equity markets are firm as the expectation for a Fed tightening is low. Without a stable to firm US$, the exporting nations in Asia and Europe are under pressure. The question moving forward is, can the strength in the US equity market support Asia and Europe as the US$ weakens?

The Bank of Japan will continue to make capital available but as they realize negative interest rates are deflationary and unsustainable the BOJ is moving to the equity market to introduce additional capital. As negative interest rates move back to 0%, the central banks recognize the nonlinear effect of monetary policy and that it is parabolic at 0%. Consequently, we do not expect the European Central Bank tomorrow to push reserve requirement rates further negative as they too are beginning to realize negative interest rates are deflationary and unsustainable.

Our hope is the Fed begins to recognize that by paying interest on excess reserves is deflationary and unstable. Without their $4 trillion balance sheet to pay interest on the excess bank reserves the Fed could not sustain fed funds at 0.25% - 0.50%. Without Fed support fed funds would gravitate to equilibrium, currently at 0%, until excess bank reserves become scarce again. Therefore, we humbly suggest the Fed let fed funds trade at their equilibrium yield of 0% and begin to sell their balance sheet to to widen the yield curve to support the banking industry and to prepare their balance sheet for the next financial crisis. 'Our fear is there are no capital market traders on the FOMC and as such don’t fully realize how difficult it will be to sell a $4 trillion balance sheet when interest rates are rising.'

On Tuesday, September 6th on the close we covered our short in the German Dax at equivalent index price of 10,685. Wednesday, September 7th early morning we sold the Japanese Nikkei at equivalent index price of 16,960. Later that morning we sold the German 10yr bund at an equivalent yield of -0.125% - yields move in opposite direction of price. We are currently long $Yen, short the Japanese Nikkei, short the German bund and hedged in a synthetic option in the Euro$.
