Kripto naglo raste nakon nižeg PPI, ali je vjerovatno recesija 2023

The U.S. Producer Price Index (PPI) rose 0.2% between Sep. and Oct. 2022, beating analysts’ expectations of 0.4%, according to a report released by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.

According to the report, the increase in PPI, excluding food, energy, and trade services, was driven by a 0.6% rise in price for final-demand goods.

The crypto industry has been under pressure since Bahamian exchange FTX faced a liquidity crunch on Sunday, Nov. 6, 2022, following a prokleti finansijski izveštaj about its sister company Alameda Research.

Bitcoin’s price briefly dipped below the $16,000 mark on Nov. 10, 2022, while on Nov. 14, 2022, the number of active ETH addresses had naglo opao, suggesting consumer pullback in the face of uncertainty. 

Peter Schiff: Ne tako brzo

A niži PPI iz mjeseca u mjesec reflects a decrease in what producers pay to manufacture their goods. If input costs decrease, the producer makes more money and can pass on some cost savings to the consumer through lower prices. So a lower PPI means more money in the consumer’s pocket.

Crypto and traditional investors hope that more money in the consumer’s pocket means that the Fed will slow down the size and speed of its aggressive interest rate hikes, intended to combat record inflation in the U.S.

But Bitcoin critic Peter Schiff warns that it is too early to hope for a respite from rate hikes. He argues that consumer and producer prices will soon go up because the U.S. dollar index has fallen 8% in the last eight weeks. These increases would negate the “perceived progress” that the Fed is making, prompting sustained tightening.

Jurrien Turner, Head of Global Macro at Fidelity Investments, issued a similar warning on Bloomberg TV after the PPI numbers were released.

“Kada se dionice oporave, a obveznice oporave, a dolar pada, finansijski uvjeti popuštaju, što je suprotno od onoga što Fed želi vidjeti tokom kampanje jer želi da se finansijski uslovi pooštre. [Postoji] rizik da će Fed početi bacati hladnu vodu na ovaj skup”, rekao je on, misleći na nedavne skupove cikličkih dionica kao što su Caterpillar i PPG Industries.

Negative yield spreads point to 2023 recession

Ranije ove godine, Federalne rezerve, centralna banka SAD-a, krenule su u pooštravanje u borbi protiv inflacije za koju su se mnogi bojali da bi američku ekonomiju odvela u recesiju. Centralna banka je uvela uzastopna povećanja kamatnih stopa od 0.25% u martu 2022. i 0.5% u maju 2022. godine, nakon čega su uslijedila četiri povećanja od 0.75% u junu, julu, septembru i novembru 2022. godine. 

In the most recent Federal Open Market Committee meeting, Fed chair Jerome H. Powell said that the window is narrowing for the economy to have a “soft landing,” a euphemism for avoiding a recession. 

In the long run, this is not good news for crypto investors since other previously reliable predictors indicate an impending recession in 2023.

There is a deepening gulf between the yields of the 10-year (10Y) and three-month (3M) U.S. government Treasury instruments. 

When it needs to borrow money, the U.S. government issues short and long-term Treasury instruments to its citizens. It pays them a return after a certain maturity period has passed.

Treasury notes have a maturity period of greater than one year but less than ten years, while Treasury bills mature within a year.

When the difference in yield between a longer-term instrument and a shorter-term instrument turns negative, e.g., the 10Y – 3M spread is less than zero, it is a sign that investors expect returns on longer-term instruments to grow increasingly lower. Investors looking for lower-risk investments drive down 10-year yields through demand.

At press time, the yield spread between 10Y and 3M treasuries was roughly -0.46%, while the spread between 10Y and 2Y yields was about -0.5%.

Unfortunately for crypto investors, history has shown that increasingly negative Treasury yield spreads have foreshadowed recessions. Threats of a recession could deepen the kripto zima.
