传奇投资人再吹哨:美国楼市要崩,经济将受严峻挑战

WILL DANIEL 2022-05-13
格雷厄姆认为,我们目前正处于现代经济的第五次大泡沫中。

从去年开始,华尔街巨头杰里米•格雷厄姆(Jeremy Grantham)就预警称,美股市场已经酝酿起了一个“超级泡沫”,随着投资者极其冒险的投资行为逐渐降温,标普500指数或将面临腰斩的风险。

格雷厄姆是波士顿资产管理公司GMO的联合创始人、首席投资战略官。他警告道,随着抵押贷款利率飙升,美国有可能会陷入房地产危机,这对经济的影响可能是毁灭性的。

目前看来,他对股市的看法是有先见性的,因为标普500指数今年已经跌了15%。今年以来,为了抵抗几十年一遇的高通胀水平,美联储选择了持续加息,这也给股市特别是一度火热的科技股造成了沉重打击。

格雷厄姆认为,美国经济是能够经受住股市的大幅下跌的,互联网泡沫时期美国经济只是轻微衰退就是证据,但是房地产危机却不可能让美国经济毫发无损地过关。

格雷厄姆在接受彭博社采访时表示:“2000年的互联网泡沫表明,股市震荡并不会对经济造成严重影响,但日本和美国2008年的历史经验表明,房地产危机是不可能让你轻易过关的。”

格雷厄姆认为,我们目前正处于现代经济的第五次大泡沫中。前四次分别是1929年的华尔街崩盘、1989年的日本资产泡沫、2000年的互联网泡沫和2008年的全球金融危机。

他认为,由于投资者的投机行为,以及美联储采取的不可持续的宽松货币政策,美国的股市和楼市都已升至不可持续的水平。

格雷厄姆曾因准确预测了上一轮楼市泡沫和2008年的大崩盘而名声大噪。他在去年年底就曾警告道,美国房地产市场的“清算日”就要来了。

目前,美国的30年期固定抵押贷款利率本周已升至5.27%,达到了2009年以来的最高水平。因此格雷厄姆认为,美国楼市再次崩盘的时间点已经越来越近了。

根据今年四月份的标普全美房价指数,美国房价今年1月同比上涨

19.2%,2月同比上涨19.8%。

房价的飞速上涨,使得一些市场专家也开始认同格雷厄姆的观点,即美国房市已进入泡沫阶段,包括达拉斯联邦储备银行也持同样的看法。该行在3月末发表了一篇文章,标题为《实时市场监测表明美国房地产有泡沫化迹象》。文章指出,美国房价已经“日益脱离基本面”。

当然,也不是每个人都认为美国房地产市场一定会崩盘。

比如穆迪分析的首席经济学家马克·赞迪表示,尽管他也认为美国房地产市场将在年底前出现降温,但全美房价不太可能出现大幅调整。

赞迪本周一对《财富》表示:“我认为房价增速会趋缓,有些地区的房价可能会回踩5%到10%左右。”(财富中文网)

Wall Street titan Jeremy Grantham has been warning of a “superbubble” in the U.S. since last year, arguing the S&P 500 is set to be cut in half as an era marked by exceedingly risky investor behavior begins to fade.

Now, the cofounder and chief investment strategist of the Boston-based asset management firm Grantham, Mayo, and van Otterloo (GMO) is warning the U.S. may be headed toward a housing crisis as mortgage rates soar, and the effects on the economy could be devastating.

So far, his prediction about the S&P 500 has proved to be prescient, if a little dramatic, as the index is now down roughly 15% year to date. Stocks, particularly in the once high-flying tech sector, have been hammered as the Federal Reserve continues to raise interest rates in hopes of combating levels of inflation not seen in four decades.

Grantham argues the U.S. economy can weather dramatic drops in the stock market, as evidenced by the merely mild recession that surrounded tech stocks’ blowup during the dotcom bubble. But when it comes to a housing crisis, he says, the economy is unlikely to come through unscathed.

The dotcom bubble of “2000 showed you can just about skate through a stock market event, but Japan and 2008 showed you can’t skate through a housing crisis,” Grantham told Bloomberg in an interview published on Friday.

Grantham is convinced that we’re in the midst of a fifth great bubble of the modern era, following the Wall Street crash of 1929, the Japanese asset bubble of 1989, the dotcom blowup in 2000, and the Global Financial Crisis of 2008.

He argues that both stocks and the housing market have been lifted to unsustainable levels owing to speculation from investors and unsustainably loose monetary policies from the Federal Reserve.

Grantham—who is well known for accurately predicting the housing bubble and subsequent crash of 2008—warned late last year that a “day of reckoning” for the housing market would come.

Now, with interest rates for a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage rising to 5.27% this week, their highest levels since 2009, he sees that point coming ever closer.

Home prices surged 19.8% year over year in February, only adding to the 19.2% annual gains seen in January, according to S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller U.S. National Home Price Index data released in April.

The rapid increase in the cost of housing has led some market experts to back up Grantham’s view that the red-hot market is now in bubble territory, including the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas. In a paper published in late March titled “Real-time market monitoring finds signs of brewing U.S. housing bubble,” Fed researchers said home prices “appear increasingly out of step with fundamentals.”

Of course, not everyone is convinced that the housing market is set for a dramatic drop.

Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody’s Analytics, said that while he sees the U.S. housing market cooling through the end of the year, a substantial national home price correction is unlikely.

“In terms of house prices, I expect [growth] to go flat,” Zandi told Fortune on Monday. “There will be markets where we will see a price decline of around 5% to 10%.”
