Danny Dayan argues the Fed is passively easing, fueling a risk-asset melt-up and inflation reacceleration. He recommends buying risk assets, hedging with oil and bond shorts, and favoring supply-constrained commodities like copper and agriculture while avoiding gold and silver.
- Danny says the Fed's passive easing and loose financial conditions are driving a parabolic melt-up in risk assets.
- He advises buying every dip in risk assets until the Fed gets serious or oil/bond markets break.
- He favors copper and agriculture commodities due to supply chain disruptions and data center demand.
- He recommends hedging with oil upside and bond shorts, and betting on higher volatility via VIX.
- He expects gold and silver to underperform in this cycle.
- He critiques the Fed for misjudging neutral rates and demographics, leaving them behind the curve.
- He compares the current environment to the 2000 dot-com melt-up, warning of a violent policy response later.
- The dollar's short-term outlook is uncertain with potential for strengthening as US rates rise.
Идеи
Long copper for supply chain shortages.
Supply chain disruptions and demand for data centers make copper a critical commodity in short supply. It is likely to outperform as a real asset play.
Avoid gold and silver.
Gold and silver have had a great run as dollar replacements, but the current supply-chain-driven inflation cycle does not favor them. They are unlikely to participate much further.
Long agriculture commodities like sugar and wheat.
Agriculture commodities such as sugar and wheat are in short supply due to supply chain issues and are needed in the economy. They offer a long opportunity.
Hedge with oil upside.
Oil is a critical supply shock that could lead to much higher prices if the disruption persists. He recommends hedging portfolios with oil upside exposure to protect against the inflationary and growth impacts.
Bet on higher volatility, long VIX.
With the VIX low and markets moving 1–1.5% daily, betting on higher volatility is a sensible hedge. The VIX can't go much lower and the melt-up environment increases tail risks.
