美国经济将同时面临衰退与通胀,投资者要当心

TRISTAN BOVE 2022-06-09
专家认为,美国经济将经历冰火交织的动荡时期。

摩根士丹利(Morgan Stanley)联席总裁表示,美国经济在对通胀的恐慌和对经济萎缩的恐慌之间摇摆,短期内可能陷入动荡。

继杰米·戴蒙、卡尔·伊坎等银行家和投资者之后,上周,投资银行摩根士丹利机构证券业务负责人泰德·皮克也警告称,经济衰退的可能性不断升高,美国经济将经历冰火交织的动荡时期。

他表示:“所谓的火是指通货膨胀,而冰则是指经济衰退、硬着陆或软着陆。我们可能在有些时期感觉经济火热,有时感觉冰冷,客户需要绕过这些时期。”

皮克表示,美国依旧有相当大的概率陷入经济衰退,但到明年秋天之前都无法确定。

他预测如果到明年秋天“通货膨胀和通胀预期得到巩固”,将会发生经济衰退和银行业务增长放缓,因为这将迫使美联储收紧货币政策,并进一步加息。

但即使发生经济衰退,也不会引起与2008年一样的经济崩溃。皮克表示,美国正处在一个完全不同的商业周期的边缘,即将放弃过去15年执行的货币宽松政策。

范式转换

皮克认为,经历过以长期低借款利率为标志的创纪录的牛市之后,一场巨大的经济动荡可能无法避免。

2020年,新冠疫情短期中断了这个进程,但美国经济去年快速反弹,三大股指均大幅度上涨,企业并购规模创下历史记录。

但皮克认为,受到俄乌冲突、高通胀和高利率的影响,新的经济常态正在形成。

他表示:“这是一个非同寻常的时期。它预示着范式发生转变:长达15年的金融抑制结束,下一个时代来临。”

新经济时代可能是一个全新的商业周期。皮克认为这个新周期的特征是借款利率将高于消费者在过去十五年所熟悉的水平。

皮克多次提到了金融抑制。所谓金融抑制是指引导私营行业的公司利润用于偿还政府债务的货币策略。皮克认为,这种策略通常会导致长期低利率,减少私营行业的储蓄,而且美国在高公共负债时期曾多次采用这项政策。

他说道,从“金融抑制”时期的转变不会在一夜之间发生。

皮克表示:“我们将在未来12个月、18个月或者24个月持续开展这类对话。”但他保证变化一定会来临,在旧商业周期结束之后,有不同规则的新商业周期必定会出现。

“在某个时间点发生的范式转变将开启一个新商业周期。我们已经很久没有考虑过,体现真实利率与真实资本成本的世界是什么样子。真实利率和真实资本成本能够区分公司的优劣和股票的优劣。”(财富中文网)

The economy is likely to blow hot and cold for the immediate future, Morgan Stanley’s copresident says, as the economy swings between fears of inflation and fears of contraction.

Last week, Ted Pick, head of institutional securities at investment bank Morgan Stanley, joined bankers and investors from Jamie Dimon to Carl Icahn in warning that chances of a recession are steadily rising, marked by periods of a hot and cold economy.

“There is a fire narrative, and that fire narrative is inflation. And then there is a bit of an ice narrative, that recession talk, hard landing or soft landing,” he said. “We'll have these periods where it feels awfully fiery, and other periods where it feels icy, and clients need to navigate around that.”

There is still a decent chance the U.S. will enter a recession, but we likely will not know for sure until next fall, Pick said.

He forecasts an economic downturn and slowdown in banking business if “inflation and inflationary expectations are cementing” by next fall, as this would force the Fed to tighten monetary policy and raise interest rates even higher.

But even if a recession does hit, it will not necessarily entail an economic collapse akin to what happened in 2008. And Pick says that the U.S. is on the precipice of an entirely different business cycle which will be a departure from the loose monetary policy of the last 15 years.

Paradigm shift

A momentous upheaval to the economy may have been inevitable after a record bull market run marked by a prolonged period of low borrowing rates, according to Pick.

The pandemic briefly interrupted this run in 2020, but the economy bounced back quickly last year, with massive rebounds from all three major stock indices and a record volume of mergers and acquisitions.

But after a new war in Ukraine, high inflation, and higher interest rates, a new economic norm is emerging, according to Pick.

“It’s an extraordinary moment,” he said. “It signals a paradigm shift: the end of 15 years of financial repression and the next era to come.”

This new economic era could be an entirely new business cycle, one Pick says might be defined by higher borrowing rates than consumers have grown accustomed to over the past decade and a half.

Financial repression—which Pick spoke of several times during his speech—refers to a monetary strategy of redirecting company profits from the private sector to pay off government debts. According to Pick, it often leads to lower interest rates for a prolonged period of time and reduced savings in the private sector, and the policy has been employed by the U.S. several times in moments of high public debt.

The shift away from an age of “financial repression” won’t happen overnight, he says.

“We’ll be having this conversation for the next 12, 18, 24 months,” Pick said, but assured that a change is coming, and a new business cycle with different rules is set to emerge in the old one’s wake.

“This paradigm shift at some point will bring in a new cycle. It’s been so long since we’ve had to consider what a world is like with real interest rates and real cost of capital that will distinguish winning companies from losing companies, winning stocks from losing stocks.”
