1 The Big Picture Hasn t Changed: Don t Get Sucked Back Into the Stock Market July 22, 2016 by Justin Spittler of Casey Research Stocks are on a tear right now Today, the S&P 500 hit a new all-time high. It topped 2,130 for the first time since May The benchmark index is now up 6.9% over the past two weeks. All good, right? It might seem that way if we were only analyzing U.S. stocks. The thing is, in nearly every other market, stocks are still headed lower: The Japanese Nikkei 225 is down 15% this year. It's down 28% since last June. The STOXX Europe 600, which tracks 600 large European stocks, is down 9% this year. It's fallen 20% since April The FTSE 100, Great Britain s version of the S&P 500, is down 6% since last April. And that s not all. If you ve been reading the Dispatch, you know the global economy is not in good shape. Corporate earnings are falling.stocks are expensive. GDP growth is stalling. So why are U.S. stocks making new highs? Today, we take a look at the big picture to help you make sense of the market's mixed signals. As you'll see, right now is a dangerous time to get back into stocks First the good news The Labor Department released a strong jobs report on Friday. The U.S. economy created 287,000 jobs last month. That s the most in eight months. Page 1, 2018 Advisor Perspectives, Inc. All rights reserved.
2 Stocks rallied on the news. The S&P 500 jumped 1.5%. The Dow rose 1.4%. And the NASDAQ rose 1.64%. Many investors saw the strong jobs report as proof that the economy is doing OK. But the jobs report is a noisy indicator. It fluctuates a lot from one month to the next. This makes it unreliable. As you may remember, U.S. companies hired just 38,000 workers in May. That was the fewest workers added in one month since That s why you often need to take a step back to understand how an economy is really doing. Over the weekend, Barron s explained that U.S. companies are still hiring at one of the slowest rates in two years: With a small downward revision to April and May, employment gains in the April-June quarter averaged just 147,000. Except for the three months from March through May, when the gain ran 114,000, 147,000 is the slowest three-month increase since February But that s not the only reason to be skeptical of this rally The world is now racing toward a full-blown banking crisis If you ve been reading the Dispatch, you know the recent Brexit triggered a crash in European banks. Many of these banks are now down more than 50% over the past year. Swiss banking giant Credit Suisse (CS) has plunged 57% since last July. Deutsche Bank (DB), Germany s biggest lender, is down 54%. The Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS) is down 52%. But it s not just European banks that are struggling. Major banks across the world are now trading like a major crisis is on the way. Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, Inc. (MTU), Japan s biggest bank is down 38% over the past year. U.S. banking giant Citigroup is down 24%. The weak global economy is a major reason why banks are struggling to make money. It s hurt demand for loans, which is how many banks make most of their money. Low interest rates are also starving banks of income. Regular readers know low rates have taken over the world. According to MarketWatch, global interest rates are at the lowest level in 5,000 years. With rates near all-time lows, banks are making less money on every loan they make. Some investors see the recent selloff as an opportunity to buy the world s biggest banks That s because many of these stocks are trading at the lowest prices in years. Some have never been cheaper. But that doesn t mean they can t get even cheaper still. Page 2, 2018 Advisor Perspectives, Inc. All rights reserved.
3 According to The Wall Street Journal, the recent selloff could trigger another leg down in bank stocks: Sharp share-price falls will make it much more difficult, and expensive, for banks to raise capital if that is what is ultimately needed to shore up their balance sheets. Just as bad, a serious decline in market value can breed inaction among bank executives. Instead of selling equity when they can, executives may wait for share prices to recover, only to find themselves in a worse situation as stocks drop even further. We see an even bigger reason to avoid bank stocks. Italy s banking system looks like it s about to collapse Italian banks have more than 360 billion worth of "bad" loans (ones trading for less than their book value). That s equal to about one-fifth of the country s annual economic output. Italian banks are in worse shape than U.S. banks were before the 2008 financial crisis. The Wall Street Journal reported last week: In Italy, 17% of banks loans are sour. That is nearly 10 times the level in the U.S., where, even at the worst of the financial crisis, it was only 5%. Among publicly traded banks in the eurozone, Italian lenders account for nearly half of total bad loans. The situation at Banca Monte dei Paschi di Siena SpA, the country s third biggest bank, is so bad that the company assigned a team of 700 people to deal with its bad loans. Last Tuesday, Bloomberg Business warned that the company is at high risk of default. The cost of insuring Italy s biggest lenders soared and bonds fell. Credit-default swaps on subordinated bonds of Banca Monte dei Paschi di Siena SpA surged to a record and now signal a 63 percent probability of default within five years. Monte Paschi s stock has plunged 83% over the past year. Government officials are trying to shore up Italy s fragile banking system Last week, the government banned short-selling of Monte Paschi s stock. Regulators hope this ban will keep Monte Paschi s stock from crashing. The Italian government is also thinking about pumping 40 billion into its fragile banking system. Page 3, 2018 Advisor Perspectives, Inc. All rights reserved.
4 These emergency measures won't fix anything. At best, they ll buy Italy time. But years of weak economic growth and destructive government policies will eventually cause Italy s banking system to collapse. And because Italy is the fourth largest country by GDP in Europe, a banking crisis would almost certainly spread to the rest of Europe. According to George Soros, Europe s banking system never recovered from the last financial crisis Soros, who is one of history s greatest traders, warned that European banks would be severely tested going forward. Deutsche Bank s top economist also thinks Italy s crumbling banking system could create problems for the rest of Europe. Bloomberg Businessreported yesterday: "Europe is extremely sick and must start dealing with its problems extremely quickly, or else there may be an accident," Deutsche Bank s David Folkerts-Landau said, according to the newspaper. "I m no doomsday prophet, I am a realist." According to Bloomberg, Folkerts-Landau believes Europe urgently needs a 150 billion-euro ($166 billion) bailout fund to recapitalize its beleaguered banks. Again, pumping money into Europe s fragile banking system won t solve any problems. It would be like putting a Band-Aid on a gunshot wound. We encourage you to own physical gold As Dispatch readers know, gold is the ultimate safe haven. That s because it s real money. It s preserved wealth for thousands of years because it possesses a rare set of attributes: It s durable, easily divisible, and easy to transport. Its value doesn t depend on faith in a government or central bank. Of course, the threat of a global banking crisis isn t the only reason to own gold. As regular readers know, there s an even bigger threat to your wealth Chart of the Day The rest of the world is already in a bear market. Today s chart shows the performance of the MSCI World (ex USA) Index since the start of This index tracks the performance of stocks from around the world, excluding U.S. stocks. You can see the index peaked in July 2014 and has been falling ever since. It s now trading 21% below Page 4, 2018 Advisor Perspectives, Inc. All rights reserved.
5 its 2014 high. According to the popular definition, a bear market begins when an index falls 20% from its high. By that measure, the rest of the global stock market is officially in bear market. Casey Research Page 5, 2018 Advisor Perspectives, Inc. All rights reserved.
