Jubeln oder Yellen ? – Wall Street hör die Signale .. aus Jackson Hole
Veröffentlicht: 22. August 2014 Abgelegt unter: Federal Reserve Systems | Tags: Economic Policy Symposium, Jackson Hole, Mario Draghi, QE-Programm 3 KommentareEs ist mal wieder so weit, das jährliche Stelldichein der Zentralbankchefs im beschaulichen Jackson Hole im US-Bundessaat Wyoming, unweit des Grand Teton Nationalparks.
Organisiert wird das Economic Policy Symposium von der Kansas-Fed, die auch über Gästeliste und Konferenzthema entscheidet und gegenüber den Medien daraus gerne bis zuletzt ein großes Geheimnis macht.
Aus Insiderkreisen war bislang zu hören, dass die Chefvolkswirte von Goldman Sachs und Morgan Stanley dieses Mal nicht eingeladen wurden, ein Umstand der aus meiner Sicht zu begrüßen ist.
Im Wall Street Journal-Blog wurden die aus Sicht der Autoren fünf wichtigsten Fragen der Börsianer und Banken an die Teilnehmer formuliert, die sich an die Konferenz und vor allem an Janet Yellen richten, zu denen man sich möglichst klare Ansagen erhofft:
- Does the recent improvement in U.S. economic data warrant consideration from Fed officials about possibly raising interest rates sooner than the summer 2015 time frame market participants currently expect?
- How much unused capacity or “slack” remains in the U.S. job market? The answer to this question, hotly debated within the central bank, is pivotal to the decision about when to start raising short-term interest rates from near zero.
- Geopolitical risks seem to be rising quickly and euro-zone growth appears to have stalled. China is also struggling. How much risk do you see of a global economic slowdown hurting U.S. economic activity in the coming year?
- Has potential U.S. economic growth been permanently damaged by the Great Recession or are we likely to return to growth rates around 3% per year?
- What worries you more: The possibility the Fed will raise interest rates too early or wait too long?
Im Mittelpunkt steht natürlich die Frage, ob und wann Yellen das Knöpfchen mit der Aufschrift ‚Zinserhöhung‘ drückt, aus Sicht der Börsianer pures Gift für die Aktienkurse und so ganz nebenbei auch ein wichtiges Signal für die Zentralbanken in Asien und Europa.
.
Wer jenseits offizieller Berichte und Veröffentlichungen ansatzweise über Yellens Rede informiert sein möchte, sollte die aktuellen Kursentwicklungen der Wall Street aufmerksam verfolgen.
Sollte es keine konkrete Ansage hinsichtlich geplanter Zinserhöhungen geben, könnte sich der Aufwärtstrend von DOW, NASDAQ und S & P 500 weiter fortsetzen, Zinsankündigungen würden vermutlich das Gegenteil bewirken.

Draghi Says ECB Ready to Do More as Governments Urged to Help
Mario Draghi said the European Central Bank is ready to add more stimulus and called on governments to do more to help the euro-area economy.
“We stand ready to adjust our policy stance further,”
the ECB president said today in the text of a speech at the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City’s economics conference in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.
“It would be helpful for the overall stance of policy if fiscal policy could play a greater role alongside monetary policy, and I believe there is scope for this.”

Janet Yellen: „US labor market has not fully recovered“
Janet Yellen has said there is no “simple recipe” to devise the right monetary policy to tackle America’s labour market.
She also warned that the Fed faces difficult judgements when deciding when the US jobs market is strong enough to cope with an interest rate rise.
Highlights from her speech are fizzling over the newswires:
15:00 – FED’S YELLEN SAYS “NO SIMPLE RECIPE” FOR APPROPRIATE POLICY IN CURRENT U.S. LABOR MARKET CONTEXT
15:00 – YELLEN: STILL UNCLEAR DEGREE OF REMAINING LABOR SLACK, HOW QUICKLY IT WILL DISAPPEAR
15:00 – YELLEN: TIGHTENING POLICY TOO SOON AS INFLATION MOVES TOWARD 2 PERCENT MIGHT PREVENT LABOR MARKET FROM FULLY RECOVERING
15:00 – YELLEN SAYS FED EMPHASIS SHIFTING TO DETERMINING WHAT LABOR CONDITIONS WOULD BRING ABOUT LESS ACCOMMODATION
15:00 – YELLEN: FED NEEDS TO MAKE “DIFFICULT JUDGMENTS” ABOUT CYCLICAL, STRUCTURAL INFLUENCES ON LABOR MARKET
15:00 – YELLEN URGES CAUTION IN JUDGING THAT RECENT WAGE DATA POINTS TO WEAKER LABOR CONDITIONS THAN INDICATED BY UNEMPLOYMENT RATE
15:00 – YELLEN: COULD REASONABLY EXPECT FURTHER INCREASES IN LABOR DEMAND TO PULL SIZABLE SHARE OF DISCOURAGED WORKERS BACK INTO WORK FORCE

Zwischenbemerkung:
Das zur Stützung der US-Konjunktur aufgelegte QE-Programm, welches Ende Juli bereits auf mtl. $ 25 Mrd. reduziert wurde, soll im Oktober 2014 auslaufen, wie die Fed-Chefin erneut bestätigte.
Obgleich es keine konkrete Ansage zu einer möglichen Leitzinserhöhung gab, so könnte die Meinung vieler Experten, die frühestens 2015 diese Maßnahme erwarten, fraglich sein.
Wie aus der City of London zu hören ist, erwarten britische Analysten bereits gegen Jahresende den Hike seitens der BoE, dem sich in der Folge sowohl die Fed als auch die EZB nicht entziehen kann. Schon alleine aus diesem Grund ist Draghi’s Rede in Jackson Hole nicht weniger spannend.
Es dürfte klar sein, dass eine Zinsanhebung den Euro-Finanzministern hinsichtlich einer Ausweitung der Haushaltsdefizite große Sorgen bereiten wird.

Das Versprechen von Jackson Hole
Fed-Chefin Janet Yellen hat am Gipfeltreffen der Zentralbanker bekräftigt, dass sie der Erholung am Arbeitsmarkt Priorität gibt. Damit steigt auch das Risiko neuer Spekulationsblasen.

Janet Yellen tells Jackson Hole job numbers are harder to decipher
Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen said Friday that the Great Recession complicated the Fed’s ability to assess the U.S. job market and made it harder to determine when to adjust interest rates.
Yellen’s remarks to an annual Fed conference in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, offered no signal that she’s altered her view that the economy still needs Fed support from ultra-low interest rates. The timing of a Fed rate increase remains unclear.
