Matt Lloyd is focusing on shorter time frames in this “sanguine” market. He looks at emerging markets, bonds, and U.S. indices. He likes financials, consumer staples, and industrials, along with commodities. He thinks the idea that the $7 trillion in money market fund assets will flow into equities is wrong, so the potential gigantic liquidity the market is anticipating isn't coming.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-...Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-...Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/19192...Watch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplu...Watch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-net...Follow us on X – / schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – / schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-networkAbout Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

It does make sense that when you look at the total world of investing, a high amount held in money market funds might subtract from total assets invested in stocks, and stock valuations might shrink as a result. But clearly that equitation has not been working lately. Confluence Advisory Director of Market Strategy Bill O'Grady joins Phil Adler to discuss what this might portend for the stock market.

More jobs data points to a healthy economy The Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey (JOLTs) showed a surprise increase in the month of August. Openings totaled 8.04 million, which topped the estimate of 7.64 million and July's reading of 7.71 million. While this is still well off the highs from just a couple of years ago, there are still 1.1 available jobs for every person looking for one. On the inflation front, I believe it was positive to see the quits rate decline to 1.9%, its lowest level since June 2020. This indicates that the labor market has softened as employees are seeing less opportunity to quit their job in favor of another one. This should help put less pressure on wage inflation. The Fed will have to continue to walk the fine line of keeping the economy moving in a positive direction without stoking a rise in inflation. It's a tough task, but the labor market has continued to hold up much stronger than many believed was possible. Employment report surprises to the upside I was surprised to see the continued strength in the labor market as the growth of headline nonfarm payrolls of 254k in the month of September easily topped the estimate of 150k. Strength came from leisure and hospitality, which saw payrolls grow 78k thanks to a nice spike of 69k jobs from food services and drinking places. Other positive sectors included health care and social assistance (+71.7k), government (+31k), and construction (+25k). Only two sectors saw declines in the month with manufacturing losing 7k jobs and transportation and warehousing down 8.6k jobs. Both July and August saw upward revisions to their reports for a combined total increase of 72k. Wage inflation was also stronger in the month as average hourly earnings grew 4% compared to last year. This is up from last month's reading of 3.8%, but still remains substantially below last year's high of 5.92%. Precovid, wage growth was in the low to mid 3% range. Overall, this report didn't have many problems. The only concern is, did the Fed move to soon and could inflation still be the larger concern rather than a weakening labor market? This report did increase expectations for a November rate cut to be 0.25% rather than 0.5%. I would have been shocked if the Fed would have opted for another 0.5% cut even if the jobs report wasn't this strong. ILA Dockworkers strike Good news for those that were concerned about the International Longshoremen's Association's (ILA) strike as the union and the United States Maritime Alliance reached a tentative agreement on wages and agreed to extend the Master Contract until January 15th, 2025. Wages will increase 61.5% over six years under the tentative deal, but the major point of conflict that still needs to be negotiated is port automation. With the increase in wages, it will be interesting to see how much the Maritime Alliance is willing to budge on automation as they will likely need to look for ways to improve efficiency to offset the higher wages. Efficiency is already a concern for US ports as a study from just a couple of years ago ranked the LA and Long Beach ports as the least efficient trade hubs for handling containers in the world. Other US ports including Savannah, Georgia, New York, and New Jersey also ranked in the bottom half of the list. Of the 370-member Container Port Performance Index, we did not have a single port in the top 10. While this resolution is positive, the problems could be delayed until early next year if the two sides still cannot come to an agreement. During my research on this strike, I learned some surprising things about the union leader, Harold Daggett. You may be shocked to learn that his combined income as president of two unions is around $900,000 per year with $728,000 coming from the ILA. He currently drives a Bentley, which is a high-end luxury vehicle with a price of $210,000 for a new one. He also recently sold his 76-foot yacht and based on the US boat group market index, the average price of a yacht in that range is $1.5 million and costs around 10 to 15% of the value to operate yearly. I was also surprised to see this is a “family business” as his son is employed by the same two unions as his dad and was paid a total of more than $700,000 last year. As for the workers, on the East Coast the union workers have an average pay around $81,000 per year. However, the waterfront commission of New York estimates 1/3 of the longshoreman made $200,000 or more last year with overtime. Investors are still adding money to money market funds Even with the recent rate cut by the Federal Reserve, investors still put nearly $130 billion into money market funds. This brought total assets in money markets to $6.8 trillion. I don't believe this money will stay there very long as probably within 3 to 6 months investors will start seeing the interest rates decline and once, they fall below 4%, we could see a large drop in the assets held in money market funds. The big question for investors is where to go. If you need liquidity, you're probably best off staying in the money market funds, but if you won't need the money for the next 3 to 5 years, you should be looking at building a strong investment portfolio using patience and a lot of research to make sure you have the right investments. A Lesser-Known Spousal Social Security Strategy After 2015 many of the spousal strategies such as the file and suspend or restricted application options are no longer possible. This is because a “deemed filing” rule applies which means when someone files for Social Security benefits, they are deemed to be filing for all benefits they are eligible for such as spousal and their own benefits. When they apply, they will receive whichever benefit is larger, but not both. However, there is still a way to switch between benefits. In order to receive a spousal benefit, the spouse you are collecting from must also be collecting. If they are not, you would only be eligible for your own benefit until they begin collecting. Consider a wife who is no longer working and whose full retirement age 67 amount is $1,000 and who has a working husband with a full retirement age amount of $3,500. Because of the husband's larger benefit, the wife is also eligible for a spousal benefit of half that amount, $1,750, if she collects it at her full retirement age. In this situation the wife may collect from her own record as early as age 62. Since she would be collecting 5 years early, her own benefit would be reduced from $1,000 to $700. Later on though, when her husband retires and starts his own social security, she could begin her spousal benefit at age 67 and boost her benefit by $750 up from $700 to $1,450. This $750 boost is because her spousal benefit of $1,750 is $750 larger than her own full retirement age amount of $1,000, even though she began collecting at 62. If she had waited to apply for anything until age 67, she would receive the full spousal benefit of $1,750, but she would have waited 5 years of collecting nothing just for an extra $300. From a Net Present Value perspective, it is better for the wife to collect her own benefit at 62 and later receive the spousal boost rather than wait completely until 67. Also, there are many spouses who collect early without knowing they are also eligible for a larger spousal benefit when their spouse retires. If they do not alert the Social Security Administration, they may not ever receive their increased benefit. Companies Discussed: Costco Wholesale Corporation (COST), Humana Inc.

Risk-averse investors have poured trillions into money-market funds since 2019. Our Chief Fixed Income Strategist explains why investors shouldn't expect this money to pivot to equities and other risk assets as rates fall. ----- Transcript -----Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I am Vishy Tirupattur, Morgan Stanley's Chief Fixed Income Strategist. Along with my colleagues bringing you a variety of perspectives, today I'll be talking about money market funds. It's Tuesday, August 6th at 3pm in New York. Well over $6.5 trillion sit in US money market funds. A popular view in the financial media is that the assets under management in money market funds represent money on sidelines, waiting to be allocated to risk assets, especially stocks. The underlying thesis is that the current level of interest rates and the consequent high money market yields have resulted in accumulation of assets in money market funds; and, when policy easing gets under way and money market yields decline, these funds will be allocated towards risk assets, especially stocks. To that I would say, curb your enthusiasm. Recent history provides helpful context. Since the end of 2019, money market funds have seen net inflows of about $2.6 trillion, occurring broadly in three phases. The first phase followed the outbreak of COVID, as the global economy suddenly faced a wide array of uncertainties. The second leg mainly comprised retail inflows, starting when the Fed began raising rates in 2022.The third stage came during the regional bank crisis in March-April 2023, with both retail and institutional flows fleeing regional bank deposits into money market funds. Where do we go from here? We think money market funds are unlikely to return to their pre-COVID levels of about $4 trillion, even if policy easing begins in September as our economists expect. They see three 25 basis point rate cuts in 2024 and four in 2025 as the economy achieves a soft landing; and they anticipate a shallow rate-cutting cycle, with the Fed stopping around 3.75 per cent. This means money market yields will likely stabilize around that level, albeit with a lag – but still be attractive versus cash alternatives. In a hard landing scenario, the Fed will likely deliver significantly more cuts over a shorter period of time, but we think investors would be more inclined to seek liquidity and safety, allocating more assets to money market funds than to alternative assets. Further, money market funds can delay the decline in their yields by simply extending the weighted average maturities of their portfolios and locking in current yields in the run-up to the cutting cycle. This makes money market funds more attractive than both short-term CDs and Treasury bills, whose yields reprice lower in sync with rate cuts. This relative appeal explains much of the lag between rate cuts and the peak in assets under management in money market funds. These have lagged historically, but average lag is around 12 months. Finally, it is important to distinguish between institutional and retail flows into and out of money market funds, as their motivations are likely to be very different. Institutional funds account for 61 per cent of money market funds, while funds from retail sources amount to about 37 per cent. When they reallocate from money market funds, we think institutional investors are more likely to allocate to high-quality, short-duration fixed income assets rather than riskier assets such as stocks, motivated by safety rather than level of yield. Retail investors, the smaller segment, may have greater inclination to reallocate towards risk assets such as stocks. The bottom line: While money market fund assets under management have grown meaningfully in the last few years, it is likely to stay high even as policy easing takes hold. Allocation toward risk assets looks to be both lagged and limited. Thus, this 'money on the sidelines' may not be as positive and as imminent a technical for risk assets as some people expect.

The Federal Reserve Met on 3/20/24 to discuss monetary policy and whether or not to raise or lower interest rates. They announced that they won't make any changes. Most experts believe that they'll lower interest rates in June. So should you start selling your money market funds and short-term bond funds? When should you do it? Should you move the money into something that could benefit from decreasing interest rates? In this episode, I'll discuss why we invest in money market funds, if you should move your money out, and where you should consider shifting it. You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in... [1:13] Sign up for the Retirement Readiness Review! [1:41] Why should you invest in money market funds? [4:33] Why move money out of your money market fund? [6:30] What might make money market rates fall? [8:42] What do you buy to replace money market funds? Why should you invest in money market funds? Money market funds should be considered part of your overall asset allocation. We look at money in terms of buckets. You need some money in risky buckets to grow your money to pace against inflation (stocks, commodities, real estate investment, high-yield corporate bonds, etc.). The other money is your “safe” money (cash, money market funds, government bonds, short-term corporate bonds, etc.). I've been recommending that you move money from your bank or other low-yielding accounts and move them into money market funds for the last year and a half. Why? Because you can now earn about 5% on your money market funds (depending on where you keep it). We typically use the Schwab Value Advantage Money Fund® (SWVXX). And as of 3/20/2024, its current yield is 5.18% with an annual expense ratio of 0.340%. Money market funds are relatively low-risk and liquid. They trade for a dollar value that rarely changes. What changes? The interest rate that the funds pay (which can reset as often as every seven days). Why move money out of your money market fund? You invest in a money market fund to help you earn more interest on your safe money. You want to choose what gives you the best rate possible. The rate you get is dependent on duration—the length of time that you're investing your money. Currently, looking at the treasury yield curve, you'll earn more interest by having your money in shorter-term treasuries than you would versus long-term treasuries. Eventually, the curve will reverse and long-term investments will yield more interest. That's when you'd consider reducing the amount of money out of money market funds. Until the Fed raised interest rates in 2022, money markets were paying almost nothing. As the Fed raised interest rates, the interest paid increased. What might make money market rates fall? The primary driver is inflation. The Fed monitors inflation so they can make decisions about what to do with interest rates. Inflation has been high. The Fed doesn't want to cut rates too quickly because it could trigger more inflation. What could you buy to replace money market funds? How do you reduce your exposure? Listen to hear some ideas!

Changing Fed policy in 2024 is likely to bring down yields from these increasingly popular funds. Here's what investors can consider instead.----- Transcript -----Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Andrew Sheets, Head of Corporate Credit Research at Morgan Stanley. Along with my colleagues bringing you a variety of perspectives, I'll be talking about trends across the investment landscape and how we put those ideas together. It's Friday, January 12th at 2 p.m. in London. One of the biggest stories in recent years has been the rise of the money market fund. Today, an investor in a US dollar money market fund earns a yield of about 5.3%, a full 1% higher than the yield on a 30 year US government bond and almost 4% higher than the yield on the S&P 500. All investment strategy at the moment, to some extent, flows from the starting point that holding cash pays pretty well. Unsurprisingly, those high yields in money market funds for little volatility have been popular. Per data from the Investment Company Institute, U.S. money market fund assets now stand at about $6 trillion, over $1 trillion higher than a year ago, which flows into these funds accelerating over the last few months. But we think this could change looking into 2024. The catalyst will be greater confidence that the Federal Reserve has not just stopped raising interest rates, but will start to cut them. If short term rates are set to fall, the outlook for holders of a money market fund changes. Suddenly they may want to lock in those high current yields. Morgan Stanley expects the declines and what these money market funds may earn to be significant. We see the Fed reducing rates by 100 basis points in 2024, and another 200 basis points in 2025, leaving short term rates to be a full 3% lower than current levels over the next two years. In Europe, rates on money market funds may fall 2% over the same period. While lower short term interest rates can make holding money market funds less attractive, they make holding bonds more attractive. Looking back over the last 40 years, the end of Federal Reserve rate increases, as well as the start of interest rate cuts has often driven higher returns for high quality bonds. But would a shift out of money market funds into bonds make sense for household allocations? We think so. Looking at data from the Federal Reserve back to the 1950s, we see that household allocation to bonds remain relatively low, while exposures to the stock market remain historically high. And this is the reason why we think any flows out of money market funds are more likely to go into bonds than stocks. Stock market exposure is already high, and stocks represent a much more volatile asset than bonds, relative to holding cash. While the US money market funds saw $1 trillion of inflows into 2024 flows to investment grade and high yield saw almost nothing. That is starting to change. With the Fed done raising rates, we expect higher flows into credit, especially in 1 to 5 year investment grade bonds, the part of the credit market that could be the easiest first step for investors coming out of cash and looking for something to move into.
