Michael Tyler“The Fed being a super hawk, that is not likely to end well for Tesla, just like the broader markets here.”
Thesis at the time
BearishThe host argues that a newly hawkish Fed, evidenced by the September dot plot and Kevin Warsh's comments, sets up a bad backdrop for risk assets including Tesla. He expects Tesla could fall further as the Fed continues hiking and eventually 'breaks something' in the economy or AI trade.
Key arguments
- The Fed just hiked rates and raised its dot plot/terminal rate projections, signaling more hikes ahead.
- The Fed appears to be deliberately targeting the AI trade to cool inflation, which could hurt AI-linked stocks like Tesla.
- Historically the Fed only stops hiking when something breaks, implying a correction or crash is likely.
Counter-arguments acknowledged
- Bond yields could fall short-term if Kevin Warsh's hawkish rhetoric successfully cools inflation expectations.
- There's a chance the war with Iran ends, which the host calls the most bullish off-ramp for the hiking cycle.
