11/09/2020 - Alejandro Tagliavini – Esperando a Biden, Argentina sentada y el Bitcoin intratable

“El dólar blue “se agachó” y anotó su novena baja consecutiva hasta quedar en $157. Leves subas en Wall Street ante primeras señales del presidente electo. Las acciones de mega capitalización parecen haberse convertido en un refugio.”

11/03/2020 - Alejandro Tagliavini – Argentina y Wall Street esperando los resultados de las elecciones en Estados Unidos

“La economía de EE.UU. creció 7,4 % (33,1% anualizado, récord) en el tercer trimestre, superando las expectativas. Pero el PBI todavía está 3,5% debajo del pico anterior a las cuarentenas. Si este martes gana Trump, Wall Street podría ponerse eufórica. Todas las encuestas dan por triunfador a Biden, pero algunos tienen dudas.”

10/27/2020 - Alejandro Tagliavini – Ni el gol del 10 podría evitar la disparada del oro y el bitcoin

“Argentina no tiene solución al menos en el corto y mediano plazo. Tenemos que ver adónde irnos. Europa sigue deprimida, y Wall Street registró una caída del Dow Jones del -0,95%. Pero los datos del PBI en Estados Unidos registrarán un fuerte repunte en el tercer trimestre del año. En este escenario, el oro y el bitcoin son la mejor opción.”

10/21/2020 - Alejandro Tagliavini – Apostando entre la soja y el (ciber) oro

“El potencial alcista del oro a largo plazo es grande y resulta una protección cuando el gobierno se vuelve muy “agresivo” en el sentido presupuestario. Pero en forma física es complicado adquirirlo y no vale la pena, entre otras cosas, por el costo de almacenamiento. ¿Cuáles son las alternativas?”

10/20/2020 - Daniel Lacalle: Central Bank Digital Currency, A Growth Or Financial Repression Tool?

“The reason why citizens demanded cryptocurrencies is precisely because they were not controlled by central banks that constantly aim to increase the money supply and generate depreciation of money, inflation ..

Central banks should defend the purchasing power of savings and salaries, not aim to erode them. If they decide to use new tools to dilute wealth, confidence in the domestic currency will evaporate. The fact that it has not happened yet does not mean that it is not going to occur sooner rather than later. When central banks finally realize that they have gone too far with their policy it will be too late.”

10/18/2020 - Dr. Albert Friedberg – Long-Term Risk is Stagflation

“The mystery and risks surrounding the early days of the pandemic, the fear of the “Unknown” and the fear of a depression, are now a thing of the past. Super- Third Quarter Report 2020 • Friedberg Mercantile Group | 3 easy money and a series of large fiscal injections, with the promise of more to come, have persuaded even the milquetoasts that risks have disappeared. As we see it, it’s not unreasonable to believe that those precise risks have been set aside for now. But, in our opinion, we seem to have exchanged the immediate risks of generalized defaults and depression for a longer and more insidious risk: stagflation.”

10/16/2020 - Alejandro Tagliavini – Llegó la hora de comprar “valor” (y oro)

“Durante el coloquio de IDEA casi el 70% de los empresarios argentinos afirmó que el próximo semestre será peor que el anterior. Mientras el dólar blue y el CCL no encuentran techo y la inflación es récord mundial (descartando Venezuela que no es un país, sino un territorio secuestrado por una banda).”

10/05/2020 - Alejandro Tagliavini – Seguimos con el oro y, por qué no, el “ciber oro”

“Hay un principio físico básico que el gobierno no entiende (mejor dicho, no quiere entender porque no le conviene, como que el presidente del BCRA ahorra en dólares, desde que sabe que esa es la verdadera moneda, y lo quiere tener controlado). Este principio es el de acción y reacción: toda fuerza física produce una reacción contraria de la misma proporción. O sea, cada piña que pega le viene de vuelta.”

10/02/2020 - Yra Harris: Narcissism Has Consequences

“The massive DOLLAR debt overhang needs a weaker U.S. currency to provide relief for sovereign or corporate borrowers that need of money to meet debt payments. The FED will not speak about the DOLLAR but a weaker dollar would be a needed tool to assist its drive for ever higher inflation. The flip side is that those warning about a TOO STRONG EURO miss an importance NUANCE. A stronger EURO reflects the idea that Europe and President Lagarde may be embarking on the correct policies.

Currencies are not always about ATTAINING A TRADE ADVANTAGE. At times the financing implications for the role of the RESERVE CURRENCY outweigh any lagging effects of trade. Do your technical work to see where the battle of DOLLAR BULLS AND BEARS is going to be fought.

The continued rally in the precious metals points to the FED‘s need for a weaker currency. If the DOLLAR were to rally I believe the central bank would move to enact YIELD CURVE CONTROL (YCC), something Chairman Jerome Powell seems reluctant to even mention since his Jackson Hole speech in August.”

“Wall Street parece inestable, al fin en fase de corrección del movimiento alcista que se inició en los mínimos de marzo. La volatilidad que mide el índice VIX de la Bolsa de Chicago, ligado al S&P 500, en la semana sube un 2,7%. ”
