量化紧缩

基本信息

QT,央行通过缩减资产负债表(停止再投资到期国债与 MBS)回收市场流动性。Druckenmiller 把它视为 2018-2019 年理解金融资产价格的最关键变量——比通胀、盈利、估值都更重要。

德鲁肯米勒的核心观点

”全球流动性的购买流速从 +1 万亿/年滑向 0——再到负”

2018 年 9 月:他给出了一个量化模板。“年初央行还在每年净买 1 万亿。我知道年底要归零——美联储要从 QE 切换到每月 500 亿缩表,欧央行从每月 300 亿停下来。如果你从 1 万亿/年缩到 0/年,发生在 12 个月里——这怎么会不重要?"

"联储说 QE 没用——但 8 中 8 都验证 QE 推涨股市”

2019 年 6 月:他对 John Williams 等人”QE/QT 对市场无影响”的说法直接驳斥。“我跟踪了 8 年——每次央行买债,债跌股涨;停了,反过来。8 中 8。可能就是运气。“

QT 的实际开始日是 2018 年 10 月 1 日

2019 年 6 月:他点名”全球净 QT 起算日是 2018 年 10 月 1 日”,那是标普见顶的时刻。“等 ECB 停止 + 美联储缩表 500 亿/月——这就是为什么我 7 月做空。我早了 3 个月,亏了一仗。但心态还在那儿。"

"缩表不只是不再投资——是真的在抽水”

2018 年 12 月:反驳”它只是不再投资”的辩解:“如果你有预算赤字、需要每月发新债,那每个月就有政府债的卖压、有流动性的紧缩。M2 同比从 7.5% 滑到 4%。流动性正在快速收紧。"

"崩盘从最弱的地方开始”

2018 年 9 月:每次央行紧缩,第一波崩盘出现在新兴市场。“它们曾是免费货币最大的受益方——既有 vanilla 资金涌入,也有市场约束消失(阿根廷怎么可能 7% 发 100 年期?)。” 等到发达市场出现裂缝,才会真正反映在股市上。

连接到 QE:2010 年起的所有”恐慌-停-再 QE”循环

“我们从 QT 切回 QE,债涨了?没有——债又跌了,股票又涨了。” 他把这条经验作为”流动性是金融资产的真正驱动”的累积证据。

政策含义:联储一旦真的紧缩,会触发自己被迫停止

2018 年 12 月:“如果你在标普已经跌 13%、所有周期股跌 25-40% 时还加息+每月缩 500 亿——那不叫’在条件好的时候塞一次进去’。” 他提醒联储:QT 自己会带来下一轮被迫极端宽松。

“I came into the year with a very challenging puzzle: rates are too low worldwide, you have negative real rates, and yet you have balance sheets being expanded by central banks at the rate of a trillion dollars a year — which I knew by the end of this year was going to go to zero. … if you go from a trillion in central bank buying per year to zero, and you get that rate of change happening within a 12-month period — does that not matter?”

“I went short the market in July because I saw QT coming, and I lost my shirt in July and August because I was three months early. … QT, I think, is still set to accelerate the minute the ECB stops. I’m talking global QT, which we pointed out in the article peaked October first.”

“Some will say, ‘Well, it’s just rolling off, they’re not selling.’ That’s not correct. If you have a budget deficit and you need to raise money every month, that creates government bond selling every month and a tightness in liquidity. … M2 growth has gone from about 7.5% to 4% over the last couple of years.”

“About a year ago, I started worrying that QT was going to hit financial assets. And it did hit. … the actual global date was October 1st.”

“Whenever they did QE1 … my theory was, QE, the buying of bonds by the government would cause risk to go up and therefore decrease the demand for bonds from other entities. … it was 7 for 7. When the government buys bonds, bonds go down and stocks go up. And vice versa.”

“Despite the fact that at least the seven or eight previous times we had done QE, bonds had gone down and stocks had gone up — John Williams and some others said that QE and QT had no impact on markets. And frankly, we switched from QT to QE, and what happened? Bonds are going down in price and equities are going up. But, you know, it was just luck — eight out of eight.”

“实际上,TGA将走向另一个方向;她已经声明她想把它重建到正常水平。所以从现在到年底,你可能会看到大约8000亿美元的国债发行。美联储将继续进行量化紧缩(QT)。还有学生贷款的事情,我认为它支撑了消费;这一切在9月份都将改变。”

“10万亿美元——5万亿货币政策,5万亿财政政策——在新冠期间被投放……这创造了巨大的、庞大的流动性存量。我想杰米·戴蒙几年前说过,有2.5万亿美元的过剩活期存款。我们一直在缓慢地消化这些流动性。”
