February 2022 Market Insights
By: Tony Minopoli, President & CIO of Knights of Columbus Asset Advisors
January was a pretty difficult month to be sure. Inflation concerns and Federal Reserve (“Fed”) reactions to inflation were the dominant themes throughout the month. Many, including myself, are calling for the Fed to increase the Federal Funds Rate1 four times this year to try and stave off inflation. Many on Wall Street are calling for more and I saw one analyst call for seven increases. Regardless, the concern is that the Fed needs to react to inflation. Doug Riley, one of our equity portfolio managers, and I have a bet on the number of rate hikes. Doug staked out less than four rate hikes and I took four or higher. I have a spot all picked out to pin the $1 bill I will collect from Mr. Riley!
Regular readers know that Knights of Columbus Asset Advisors LLC (“KoCAA”) has never been in the “transitory inflation” camp. Our belief is that inflation is more systemic and is driven by high energy prices, increasing wages and continuing snags in the global supply chain. Each of these items is complicated and the synergistic effect of all three items is what, I believe, has led us to the belief that inflation will take a little longer to be brought under control. That said, we do believe that inflation will be a 2022 issue and likely be brought to some level of control by the first quarter of 2023. We are not in the camp that we are ushering in a secular period of high inflation.
With the inflation concern towering over the financial markets, we saw the S&P 500 decrease by 5.26%2 during January, inclusive of the strong rebound of 4.32% during the last two trading days of the month. Nasdaq fared even worse with a return of -8.98% for the month, despite a solid jump of 6.54% on the last two trading days of the month. The 10-year Treasury started this year at a yield of 1.51% and ended the month at 1.78%.
The last release of Consumer Price Inflation (CPI) was 7.0% annual inflation and 5.5% annual inflation, factoring out food and energy increases3. The Fed’s preferred inflation gauge, Core U.S. Personal Consumption Index (Core PCE) was growing by 4.9% on an annual basis, as of December 31, 2021. No matter how you slice it, inflation is with us, and the Federal Reserve has taken on a more hawkish stance to protect the U.S. economy from an elongated bout with inflation. The Fed dropped the view of transitory inflation and is much more focused on the base effects that are driving inflation.
As we continue to look at the capital markets, we have been looking at a rotation from growth to value as energy, financials and consumer staples have taken the lead. Companies that are sporting very high price/earnings4 multiples saw significant pressure in January as concerns over inflation drove stock prices lower. We still believe that stocks prices in 2022 will follow earnings growth and, we believe, earnings will grow in the high single digits.
No market prognostication is ever complete without at least one caveat. Here is mine. Geopolitical tensions are as high now as at any time in recent memory. I certainly do not mean to minimize the horrific situations in Syria or Afghanistan from earlier in this century, but the world is waiting to see what happens with Russia and Ukraine and China and Taiwan. Personally, I do not believe that Putin will take any action with an incursion into Ukraine until after the closing ceremony of Winter Olympics on February 20, 2022. It is not that I believe that Vladimir Putin is an avid enthusiast of winter sports. Rather, there is a certain level of being an ally with China and China wants to sparkle on the world stage by showcasing the Olympics. It is the same reason that I do not believe that China will consider an incursion into Taiwan until the end of the Olympics. I do remain hopeful that diplomacy will work, and military action does not occur. Putin appears to miss the “glory days” of the Soviet Union and seems to view the former Russian satellite countries as “his”. Taiwan has never been recognized by China as a separate country and Xi Jing Ping seems ready to end what he views as Taiwan’s folly of being an independent state.
Many U.S. citizens are tired of foreign wars, but, in my opinion, the U.S. can ill afford the loss of global prestige if we stand by and watch Ukraine fall under President Biden as we watched former President Obama stand by while soldiers annexed Crimea. I do find it increasingly ironic how adamant we are about the sovereign border of Ukraine while our southern border is less sound than a leaky sieve, but that’s a story for another day. I believe that NATO and all of the allies within its alliance need to stand ready to defend Ukraine or what’s Putin’s next stop?
A final thought as we come to the end of January. As I was penning this essay a client called to discuss our meeting next week. We discussed the volatility in the market and the sharp rebound of the last two trading sessions. I reminded her that this market rebound is one of the reasons that we do not recommend market timing and are big adherents to strategic asset allocation. Always assess where you are on your financial journey, assess any changes that may have occurred and alter your plan in response to your changes. At Knights of Columbus Asset Advisors, we always ready to discuss asset allocation and your financial structure.
I am an avowed fan of winter sports having been both a skier and hockey player and I hope the diversion of the Winter Olympic Games from some of the current issues will be enjoyed by the world. I am even more hopeful, and prayerful, that God will lead those in power to make decisions based on building a lasting peace and safer world than decisions grounded in aggression in warfare. May God bless us all.
Until next month.
