It is clear that, in the current climate, predicting what will happen in the second half of the year is risky, to say the least. But despite this, it remains our duty as wealth advisers – and, ultimately, as a family office. Reading or listening to the macroeconomic views of people such as John Mauldin o Ray Dalio, undoubtedly shed light on this sea of financial darkness. His experience and the fact that he has already fought in almost every bullring also lend weight to his interpretation of the past, present and future of the world of finance and investment. (more…)
«Why have issues such as the Hellenic Republic’s €150,000,000 Floating Rate Notes due 2012 performed so well recently, whilst the rest of the debt has been plummeting?»This is the striking and apt question that opens the excellent article published in the Blog: Right to the Bottom by Juan Ramón Caridad and Jacobo Zarco in FundsPeople. And the authors’ immediate response is the difference between local regulations and English regulations. (more…)

When, at one of our conferences, we mention that in this new financial world (The New Normal) in which we find ourselves, the concept of risk and capital preservation has changed radically; some of those present look at us sceptically. But when we tell them that risk is taking over traditional fixed-income asset allocation and that, in this ‘new normal’, wealth preservation must be achieved – now more than ever – by buying good, undervalued companies on the stock market, their scepticism turns to widespread disbelief. And their question—or rather, exclamation—is as follows: How can there possibly be greater risk in a bank deposit, a guaranteed product, subordinated debt or public and private bonds than there is on the stock market?
Expansión reported in this article recently, that Spanish banks had set about buying debt issued by the Kingdom of Spain to «offset the decline in banking business». In other words, lending the money that the ECB is supplying in abundance and at ridiculously low rates to the Spanish government is a piece of cake – a bargain that generates «easy and safe» money.

Here we have the second part of the brilliant rapper's video of the dialectical and conceptual battle between two radically different ways of interpreting the solutions to the current global crisis. Keynesian theories or Hayek's austerity. Here you have the second round as a continuation of the first video which we published a little over a year ago. This time it is so hot that I have not yet been able to find a Spanish subtitled version as in the first video:

Portugal vota NO a la cuarta versión del plan de ajuste presupuestario y austeridad. El primer ministro, José Sócrates que gobernaba en minoría, dimite y deja las riendas de un país a la deriva financiera en un océano llamado Mercado, plagado de tiburones hambrientos.
Los portugueses se han lanzado a manos de mama UE para que les rescate. Los griegos habían manipulado y falseado sus cifras, algo gravísimo sin duda, pero su actitud aparente fue la de unos políticos cabizbajos y concientes de la transcendencia del problema. Sin embargo la aparente actitud de los políticos portugueses es la de abandonar los mandos de la nave ante su incapacidad para dominarla, con la confianza de que vendrá el Big Brother a sacarles las castañas del fuego.

Lo que me resulta más surrealista es que una economía como la alemana esté dispuesta a rescatar a un país cuyos políticos, con toda su jeta, acaban de votar NO a unos elementales ajustes económicos ante su situación financiera. O ninguno de los PIGS somos conscientes de la situación en la que estamos, o le estamos echando mucho, pero que mucho morro.
Parece que algunos digan: «Que Alemania nos coja confesados… o sin confesar, pero que nos coja». Aunque tampoco debemos olvidar que el mundo no se acaba con la Eurozona y ahí afuera también hay vida. Lo que está claro es que sin rescates, dentro no la hay por mucho más tiempo.
