  • Fed Thoughts: an Apt Place and an Awkward Time
    September 2019 Fed Thoughts: An Apt Place and an Awkward Time Vincent Reinhart | Chief Economist & Macro Strategist The story holds that the Economic Symposium at Jackson Hole run by the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City (FRBKC) achieved its iconic status for a simple reason: former Federal Reserve (Fed) Chair Paul Volcker loved fly fishing. When the FRBKC chose the venue by happenstance, Volcker signed up immediately. But once he was on the agenda, other Fed governors and Reserve Bank presidents elbowed in. So many policymakers in one place attracted media, and the private sector viewed it as a hot and increasingly hard-to-get ticket. The rest followed. To be fair, FRBKC guidance on content helped but happenstance as history is always a winning narrative. Whatever the reason, central bankers should retreat to mountains once a year, as four lessons from backpacking apply to their jobs. First, a path through the mountains looks much clearer from a distance than up close on the ground. That is, viewed from the lobby of the Jackson Lake Lodge, most routes look obvious. In 2018, the Fed had a straightforward map to raise rates that turned out to be increasingly harder to follow as the year advanced. The reason, the second point, is that local conditions matter, including changeable weather and the volume of other foot traffic on the trail. The Fed’s turn-of-the-year redirection of policy owed to officials discovering that they were pushing against an opposing flow of investors. Third, gravity matters, which is why the way up the mountain is a slow slog compared to the way down.

  • Election Matters
    September 2020 Election Matters Vincent Reinhart | Chief Economist & Macro Strategist Elections matter. Every fall in the United States during a year divisible by four, everyone frets over the national election and prognosticates about its consequences. The two political parties position themselves to make the outcome close, a possibility made more likely in the presidential contest by the peculiar arithmetic of the Electoral College. Because the primary process typically drives candidates to the wings of their parties, prospective policies offer dramatically distinct choices. And power in Washington depends on control over both the White House and Capitol Hill, making multiple down-ticket races important. The combination of small differences in odds, big differences in professed programs, and potential amplification effects from Congressional races complicates framing an economic outlook and investment strategy. This note lays out a framework for understanding the policy consequences of election results, stressing both yawning differences and surprising similarities across the potential outcomes. The framework helps to understand why the decibel volume is, for now, much louder on the political than the business news channels. As of this writing, President Trump trails badly in the polls, with an aggregator placing his expected share of the vote at 43 percent. Similarly, an electronic market puts heavy weight on a “Blue Wave” in which the Democrats retain the House and take back the Senate. However, bettors appear to have improved their opinion that Trump wins the election to almost even money. Another obvious caution is that four years ago candidate Trump was faring even more poorly in the polls, and there was widespread talk of an ascendant Democratic majority.

  • Lehman Brothers
    Lehman Brothers Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. (Pink Sheets: LEHMQ, former NYSE ticker symbol LEH) (pronounced / ˈliːm ə n/ ) was a global financial services firm which, until declaring bankruptcy in 2008, participated in business in investment banking, equity and fixed-income sales, research and trading, investment management, private equity, and private banking. It was a primary dealer in the U.S. Treasury securities market. Its primary subsidiaries included Lehman Brothers Inc., Neuberger Berman Inc., Aurora Loan Services, Inc., SIB Mortgage Corporation, Lehman Brothers Bank, FSB, Eagle Energy Partners, and the Crossroads Group. The firm's worldwide headquarters were in New York City, with regional headquarters in London and Tokyo, as well as offices located throughout the world. On September 15, 2008, the firm filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection following the massive exodus of most of its clients, drastic losses in its stock, and devaluation of its assets by credit rating agencies. The filing marked the largest bankruptcy in U.S. history.[2] The following day, the British bank Barclays announced its agreement to purchase, subject to regulatory approval, Lehman's North American investment-banking and trading divisions along with its New York headquarters building.[3][4] On September 20, 2008, a revised version of that agreement was approved by U.S. Bankruptcy Judge James M. Peck.[5] During the week of September 22, 2008, Nomura Holdings announced that it would acquire Lehman Brothers' franchise in the Asia Pacific region, including Japan, Hong Kong and Australia.[6] as well as, Lehman Brothers' investment banking and equities businesses in Europe and the Middle East.

    Issue 93-171 September 3, 1993 .:::>:'-:" .... :<::-.'.'.,:,:-:.-".,:- ADHINISTRATIVB·PROCEEDINGS NASD DISCIPLINARY ACTION AGAINST FIRST INDEPENDENCE GROUP, INC., FRANK PAUL GIRALDI, AND MARK STEVEN MILANA SUSTAINED The Commission has sustained disciplinary action against First Independe4ce Group, Inc. (FIG) of Garden City, New York, Frank Paul Giraldi, its president, and Mark Steven Milana, a registered representative. The NASD censured the firm and imposed a fine of $308,677.40, fined Giraldi and Milana $62,000 and $40,000 respectively, and censured and barred them from acting in a supervisory or principal capacity with any NASD member. The Commission found, as had the NASD, that between July 1989 and June 1990 FIG sold 12 over-the-counter securities to retail customers on a riskless principal basis at prices that included markups ranging from 11.11% to 188.46% above FIG's contemporaneous costs. The Commission rejected FIG's argument that, although it was not a market maker in any of the securities, it could price securities based on the lowest quoted ask. The Commission further found, as had the NASD, that Giraldi was responsible for FIG's failures to disclose these markups on the customer confirmations, to implement written procedures to detect and prevent excessive markups and to report price and volume information for certain activity in a pink sheet security. In affirming, the Commission noted that, since lower fines were imposed on Giraldi and Milana and they were not barred in all capacities, the sanctions were "commensurate with their participation in the violations, yet also reflect that they had no prior disciplinary history."
