Pro Macro: Private Equity & Inventory Cycle

Published on: July 28th, 2022

Last week, two important new pieces of data pointed to a rapid deterioration in the growth outlook. First on Thursday we got the Philadelphia Fed Business Outlook which fell to -12.3 from a sell side survey expectation of about flat. Worse, the S&P Global US Composite Provisional PMI for July fell below the 50 line. At 47.5 vs the expected 52.4, it was a big miss.

    Hi Julian, you seem to suggest that S&P 500 can reach 31% off ATH because you predict JOLT openings to reach 8500 level. Why do you forecast JOLT openings reaching this low macroeconomically speaking?

      JB has proprietary models which point in that direction for JOLTs. But I think the S&P500 call is not really driven by the JOLTs model. Its more driven by technical analysis and where one might normally expect retracement moves to peter out. Fibonacci lines are a pretty standard technical approach for guessing where that retracement might cap out.
