Art Cashin: “I’ve Never Seen Anything Like Today’s Market Before”

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Market veteran Art Cashin, the head of NYSE floor operations for UBS, made an interesting observation earlier today just minutes before the close, as US stocks headed for another record finish after shrugging off the worst mass shooting in US history.

Asked by CNBC’s Kelly Evans to explain how US stocks have continued to outperform while the 10-year Treasury yield has remained anchored below 2.5%, Cashin acknowledged that, during a career that’s spanned more than six decades, he’s never seen anything like today’s market.

“I’ve been doing this for over 50 years and I’ve never seen anything like it so it is rather odd.”

And given global stocks’ strong performance this year, with markets weathering a series of political crises, natural disasters, terror attacks and other nominally destabilizing events (with a little help from central banks, of course) – Cashin says the outlook isn’t as dire as some would believe.

“Right now, Europe’s doing all right emerging markets are okay, and maybe they’re not going to take away the punchbowl that quickly – so we’ll see,” Cashin said.

In September, the Fed suggested that while it would likely raise interest rates more quickly than previously believed during the coming quarters, median forecasts for the Fed funds rate in 2019, as well as the longer-run median target, declined compared with a set of forecasts released in July.

Art Cashin breaks down Q4 outlook from CNBC.

Looking ahead to the fourth quarter, the most pressing questions that investors should be asking themselves is ‘is this the quarter where tapering – or the expectation of further tapering – finally triggers a market correction.

“What’s really going to be interesting to watch in this final quarter, is will there be an impact of quantitative tightening. As Peter Boockvar points out…it’s only going to be a token amount. But when we had the taper tantrum they hadn’t even done anything yet they’d just threatened to taper.”

When asked what it would take to spark a meaningful correction in stocks, Cashin said he expects investors will take notice once the 10-year yield climbs above 3%.

“I think we’ve got to get a bit higher. Probably up around 3% you start to get everybody’s attention and you’ll start to hear that in the conversation more and more.”

However, with GDP growth accelerating 3.1% in the second quarter, Cashin says he’s surprised yields haven’t already reached that level.

“If anything, it should be much higher given the GDP number,” Cashin said.

Of course, with the Fed set to start allowing some of its $4.5 trillion balance sheet to roll off beginning in October, the invisible ceiling over yields might disappear sooner than some complacent traders realize.

      It is called the plunge protection team, you will never have seen something like this before since for 20 years there has been increasing background intervention by several Federal Reserve backed banks which without their involvement would have long gone under which is what has happened to the majority of small investors and pension funds as the manipulated markets under day trading have an inner circle involving those banks who are effectively being paid to crash the markets and paid again not to. (Using gilts as backing for loans to hedge funds, best mates rates to associates and loans to prop up the books )
