So while anyone of us likely scratches their head regarding some of these classifications, it's quant driven - the approach has pros and cons. 285 views · 0 likes · 0 reposts · 0 replies Open on X →

FWIW, since several people are wondering why the dove/hawk classifications are as depicted, it's Bloomberg's analysis of speeches. It's purely quant driven. Here's their Fedspeak Index https://t.co/a0mJZ0Ajbm

And needless to say, if you asked any FOMC member whether they're a dove or a hawk, they'd probably scoff at the notion. The illustration somewhat makes their point: they're not necessarily perma-doves or perma-hawks. 418 views · 0 likes · 0 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

Did you know that both doves and hawks can fly? Today's dove/hawk scale is in the top panel; contrast it with the scale from before the Iran war, at the end of February. Categorization by Bloomberg's BQuant. https://t.co/wAQS0WyOKt

While "everyone" has been glued to whether the Fed hikes next week, the bigger story is the hikes priced over the next year. Sep ’27 rate repriced 50 bps higher this week, mostly on oil (WTI 80→100+). Only 11 bps came from Sep hike odds rising 36%→81%. src: BBG, Merk https://t.

In 1971, Nixon "temporarily" closed gold window. In 2008, central banks "temporarily" went into crisis mode. I'm temporarily skeptical it will all end well. 0 views · 546 likes · 81 reposts · 31 replies Open on X →
