Peter Schiff: This Is Going To Be Stagflation Via SchiffGold.com, Peter Schiff was a guest on the Wharton Business Daily podcast produced by the Wharton School of Business at the University of Pennsylvania. Peter talked about inflation and how it will impact the US economy moving forward. He said ultimately, we’re heading toward stagflation. Peter said inflation has been a problem for a long time. A lot of people just weren’t cognizant of it. A lot of the inflation was in financial assets, so, stock prices were going up because of inflation, bond prices, real estate prices. That didn’t bother people because they thought inflation was making them rich .” Nevertheless, consumer prices were also going up. But the government was able to keep that hidden with a rigged CPI formula that understates inflation. But in 2021, the price increases got so large, the CPI couldn’t hide them. Based on CPI, prices were up about 7% last year . But if we still measured prices using the same type of CPI that we had in the 1970s or 1980s, prices rose closer to 15%.

Wednesdays Federal Reserve meeting may offer more carrots than sticks for debt investors. While central banks are moving to exit quantitative easing as they look past the pandemic into a world of faster inflation, its worth remembering that Fed Chair Jerome Powell said this month that it would be a long road to normal from where we are now. This characterization jars with rates markets pricing in four hikes this year and yield curves that are threatening to flatten too far and too quickly. Keep in mind that the Feds plan to rapidly shrink its balance sheet should help deliver a steeper yield curve, in contrast to the flattening implied by commentators including JPMorgan Chase & Co.s Jamie Dimon, who see the risk of more than four rate hikes this year. Dimon has been wrong-footed on rates before -- including a 2018 warning that 10-year Treasury yields would hit 5% -- yet traders are falling over each other to catch the bandwagon.

Stellar 20Y Auction Stops Through, Sees 2nd Highest Foreign Bid On Record After a furious rout in bonds, rates traders were carefully looking at today''s 20Y auction to see if the recent blowout in yields meant less demand for US paper at auction, or inversely, if the drop in prices had sparked a hunt for bargains. And if the 20 year reopening auction which just closed with the sale of $20BN in 19-year 10-month cusip TC2 is any indication, the answer is resoundingly the latter.
