Fed officials are signalling rates will rise sooner and faster than previously expected.

That’s the main takeaway from the latest policy statement and updated summary of economy projections released by the Federal Reserve’s monetary policy arm, the Federal Open Market Committee, on Wednesday.
Seven officials now expect to lift interest rates next year, up from four officials in March. More important: All but five members think rates will need to increase in 2023. In March, only 7 thought so, with 11 members expecting to keep rates pinned at zero. Markets have been expecting no change in rates before 2024. And more important still is the fact that five officials now see rates at 1% or higher in 2023, suggesting rates won’t just rise sooner but faster.

Energy expert warns of 'oil crisis' in coming years

David Tawil, president of Maglan Capital, said he expects oil to rise 'consistently and considerably' through the end of 2021.

PRBSHARES: the broader market will tank if he hints at coming raises. I don't see the Fed raising today, though the commentary 30 minutes later is what will drive a market response (as usual). Financials a benefactor of higher rates. Though BARC today pricing in no "good" news.

PRB,

Stand corrected ;)

Returning to standard capital-setting and distributions processes through 2021

The PRA intends to transition back to its standard approach to capital-setting and shareholder distributions through 2021. Under this framework, bank boards are responsible for making distribution decisions subject only to the standard constraints of the regulatory framework, including the regular annual stress test.

Following the cancellation of the annual concurrent stress test in 2020 in order to help lenders focus on meeting the needs of households and businesses during the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic, the PRC and FPC intend to undertake a full system-wide stress test in mid-2021 and to publish bank-by-bank results at end-2021. Further details will be set out in due course. In the meantime, for 2021 dividends the PRA is content for appropriately prudent dividends to be accrued but not paid out and aims to provide a further update ahead of the 2021 half-year results of large UK banks.

jordaggy : I don't think there are restrictions placed on the banks by the PRA anymore ... happy to be corrected if wrong.

jordaggy : agreed but with the economy driving forward we should see strength returning to the share price If she can break through the 190p then imo this becomes quite exciting !🤞🤞

New sanctions aimed at China’s military and securities market

On 3 June 2021, President Biden signed an Executive Order (EO14032) overhauling the sanctions regime introduced by the Trump administration that targeted securities linked to so-called “Communist Chinese Military Companies” (CCMCs).

Upon the sanctions taking effect (see “When do the prohibitions come into effect?” below), U.S. persons are prohibited from engaging in the purchase or sale of any:

Ø publicly traded securities;

Ø publicly traded securities that are derivative of securities; or

Ø publicly traded securities that are designed to provide investment exposure to publicly traded securities

Manics : Barc has certainly taken its foot off the gas for now since the climb from 85p ... but that was always expected . I am waiting for some more positive news on the interim divi due in approx. 6 weeks .

Good old JPM upgrading Barclays from 210p to 230p .... I think a little patience and holding nerve and we could see another opportunity to make some more ££ from Barc.

It certainly seems that the banks have put away far more money then actually needed so lets see what happens ... gla




@ This has been hard work for a few months now. Very little compelling either side of a trade.

Somebody asked earlier about made.com....think it was valued around 775mln...stand to be corrected...no idea what it does...

[manics] 16/6/2021 10:37

AGFX moving. Probably good value there. My average would make your eyes water.

They service FX where the banks don't wanna.

Retest of 170 likely here

[forcemode] 16/6/2021 09:50

I'm certainly sitting on my hands at present......may consider a trade if we approach mid to low 170s
