We turned bullish on interest rates in September 2020.
It took the Fed 18 months to catch up.
After over a decade of neglect from the “cash is trash” mindset, Treasury bills are back. Today, you can earn 5% a year in a virtually riskless T-bill.
How did we get here? After all, the Fed chairman said it wouldn’t happen.
Fed chairmen have no idea what the future will bring. In 2007, Ben Bernanke opined that all was well, even though the 2008 financial crisis and Great Recession lay dead ahead. When Fed chairmen express an opinion, it’s always a consensus opinion. Consensus is always wrong at the turns.
We do not listen to economists. We have our own forecasting methods. Here’s an example.
What we told subscribers on September 23, 2020:
Based on the long-term pattern in the U.S. 10-Year Notes, we said this:
On September 16, Fed Chairman Powell…told reporters that he expected short term interest rates to stay near zero…through “the end of 2023.”
…there is not a chance in the world of that scenario playing out. [T]he probability is high that interest rates have begun a process of rising….
And here’s why we said it:
You know what happened next: Long term interest rates started rising across the board. T-bill rates stayed at zero through 2021 and then soared past 5% in just 18 months.
Imagine if you had read our advance warning of a once-in-a-generation opportunity to refinance your mortgage, get a long term business loan, or pay off a credit card.
Foresights like these are why our subscribers have relied on Elliott Wave International’s unique approach for over 40 years.
How can we stand so apart? The answer is: Our forecasts are based on historical analysis and the Elliott wave model, which are utterly ignored among mainstream economists, institutional analysts and money managers. On Wall Street, independence is as rare as it is valuable.
We may not be right every time, but we always have something to show you that you won’t find elsewhere. Join other smart people. Add us to your investment arsenal.
