Now that I am back in school, finding Bloomberg time is not as easy, in turn, my economic outlook has not been assisted by the mighty workbench. There is probably a negative psychological term for this sort of dependency, but I do not want my posts to limited to times when I have Bloomberg access. Thus, this post is chart lite. However, I still think there are a lot of interesting themes to discuss in macro as we head into the new year. While it could be as simple as taking GS' 2018 trade ideas and putting on the opposite positions, I think there are other interesting macro trades to be had over the next few months. I want to continue looking at short USDJPY from last post, the path of rate hikes for the FOMC over the next few months, why whites in short sterling rates look rich, the oil/copper ratio and the FX lags of a potential mean reversion. Despite the lack of charts, I hope you still enjoy and I look forward to the conversations to follow.
