Volatility is becoming "normal" again

October 2, 2009

After the storm – A “new normal” for the world economy | www.economist.com

1 - This opinion-leader concentrates on needed changes in public policy, which are unlikely to happen. What will happen to the markets during this period of waffle?2 - Currency management will matter, as another way governments cheat, but the very shift from emergency priming to actual use of funds will shake up the capital markets.3 - Beware the consequences of shifting consumption patterns. You may get what you wish for!

The new sub-prime market - another slow-motion disaster

October 1, 2009

Asian freight lines face threat of seizure | www.ft.com

1. Ship financing has usually been risky business, but during the 2003-07 go-go years that corresponded with the debt bubble it all seemed free and easy.2.Like US commercial property, ship construction got a lot of non-bank money, so now some funds will suffer - but so will the CDOs the bankers stuffed with ship credits.3. As the Baltic Dry Index plot suggests, a "death spiral" has begun in this asset class and a lot of balance sheets will suffer horribly.

Global capacity adjustment - not just a China PR stunt

September 30, 2009

China moves to curb industrial capacity | www.ft.com

1. Overcapacity is a recurring Chinese problem, in the name of employment management and overall growth. 2. High export dependency (42% in 4Q08) exposed the economy to infrastructure bottlenecks, trade friction and increased risk of oversteering. 3. The need to adjust is real, but the bigger risks are social fragmentation, a global loss of confidence in the China growth story and severely reduced manoeuvering room in the international area.

JPMorgan, the man who encouraged lending

September 26, 2009

How to Stop a Credit Card Payment Increase | www.mainstreet.com

During the last major financial meltdown or depression, JPMorgan, the man who encouraged lending by laying down the gauntlet to his peers, single handedly stimulated the economy. He knew that the severe times dictated new and severe lending techniques. I believe there is going to be an even LARGER backlash to Chase and American Express and other credit card lending institutions, that continue in the business of credit card lending, and continue alienating the high FICO borrowers.

Thanks, but no thanks

September 17, 2009

Lending in Europe continues to shrink | www.ft.com

Banks across Europe have insisted in recent months any decline in lending is due to a falloff in demand, not supply. Supply is not useful if the line or rate does not make any sense.

Near-term short on Daiwa is in order

September 14, 2009

Daiwa to buy out SMFG from venture for $2.2 billion | uk.reuters.com

1. A large, research-driven brokerage that has never fully adjusted to the realities of the post-90s Japan needed the deal-making and distribution muscle of SMFG.2. Its tightening of the relationship over a year ago was based on recognizing that weakness.3. The buy-out reflects a refusal of Daiwa leadership to try merging its culture with that of Nikko Cordial and the aggressive Sumitomo. A go-it alone strategy will be difficult - and lead to a new partner next year.
