Rent Increases Up Sharply Year-over-year, Pace is slowing
Welcome to the June 2022 Apartment List National Rent Report. Rent growth accelerated slightly again this month, with our national index up by 1.2 percent over the course of May. So far this year, rents are growing more slowly than they did in 2021, but faster than the growth we observed in the years immediately preceding the pandemic. Over the first five months of 2022, rents have increased by a total of 3.9 percent, compared to an increase of 6.1 percent over the same months of 2021. Year-over-year rent growth currently stands at a staggering 15.3 percent, but is down slightly from a peak of 17.8 percent at the start of the year. On the supply side, our national vacancy index ticked up slightly again this month, continuing a streak of gradual easing dating back to last fall. Our vacancy index now stands at 5 percent, up from a low of 4.1 percent, but remains well below the pre-pandemic norm. Rents increased this month in 96 of the nation’s 100 largest cities, though 70 of these cities have seen slower rent growth in 2022 so far than they did last year, and some of the hottest Sun Belt markets are finally showing signs of plateauing growth-ya think? kek!
Rents are still increasing sharply, but not as rapidly as a year ago. CoreLogic … today released its latest Single-Family Rent Index (SFRI), which analyzes single-family rent price changes nationally and across major metropolitan areas.
U.S. single-family rent price growth continued at a record pace in March, up 13.6% from one year earlier. Slim inventory continues to squeeze renters, as do robust home price gains – both familiar culprits in declining affordability. As in months past, warmer areas of the country continued to experience the highest rental cost growth, with prices in two large Florida metro areas accelerating at about two-to-three times the national rate. The 13.6% YoY increase in March was up from 13.1% YoY in February I’m going to update some of the data on rents. Here is a graph of several measures of rent since 2000: OER, rent of shelter, rent of primary residence, Zillow Observed Rent Index (ZORI), and ApartmentList.com. (All set to 100 in January 2017)
Note: For a discussion on how OER, and Rent of primary residence are measured, see from the BLS: How the CPI measures price change of Owners’ equivalent rent of primary residence (OER) and rent of primary residence (Rent)

Demand For American Gold Eagles Explodes
Demand for American Gold Eagles exploded in May according to the latest data from the US Mint. The mint sold 147,000 ounces of American Gold Eagles in varying denominations totaling 200,500 coins. That was a 67% increase from March.
So far this year, the US Mint has sold 661,500 ounces of American Eagles. For the year, gold bullion demand is up a staggering 617%. When you factor out COVID-19-related sales disruptions, bullion sales are up 400% over the 5-year average between 2015 and 2019.
A market strategist told Kitco News that the surge in demand for physical metal reflects growing investor anxiety bubbling under the surface. Bullion sales better reflect the anxiety investors are feeling right now. When you hear economists talk about a recession, it starts to make sense why bullion sales are so strong. Gold will always be a long-term store of value.” The mainstream doesn’t seem to have picked up on this yes, but the demand for physical gold may indicate at least some people are beginning to worry.
Institutional investors focus more on the futures market. As Peter noted in a recent video on gold’s recent performance, the mainstream still thinks the Fed is going to successfully fight inflation by raising interest rates and believes the central bank has the tools to get inflation back to 2%. Rather than fearing inflation, they’re fearing the fight against inflation.” Schiff said. “Because how is the Fed going to fight inflation? It’s going to jack up interest rates. It’s going to have a tight monetary policy. In fact, it’s even going to start shrinking the balance sheet. It’s going to start taking money out of circulation — quantitative tightening. It’s going to reverse all of that inflation. It’s going to suck up that liquidity. And that is what is scaring investors out of buying gold and silver. They still have confidence in the Federal Reserve.”
Peter said faith in the Fed is misplaced, and he emphasized that the Fed is only pretending it’s going to fight inflation. Because it’s also pretending the economy is strong enough to withstand the fight. It’s not. Even though the fight is inadequate to solve the inflation problem, it’s going to cause a big problem for the economy that is so levered up on debt.” A senior commodities broker with RJO Futures told Kitco News that he doesn’t think interest rates can go too much higher because of the government’s massive twin deficits – budget and trade. Gold futures are capped by rising interest rates, but people have been going out to buy the physical metal to have some ‘real money’ stashed away.”

Hungary Stalls EU Sanctions Package Over Measure Targeting Russian Church Leader
Hungary stalled the EU’s latest sanctions package against Russia over objection to the sanctioning of Patriarch Kirill, the leader of the Russian Orthodox Church.
Earlier this week, the EU agreed on principle on a new sanctions package that includes a Russian oil ban with exemptions for pipeline deliveries to Hungary and other land-locked nations. EU officials met Wednesday night to finalize the deal and turn it into law, but Hungary insisted that the sanctions against Patriarch Kirill must be dropped. "Agreement is held up because Hungary is objecting to sanctions on Patriarch Kirill," an EU diplomat said, according to Al Jazeera. More talks were expected to be held later on Wednesday night, but as of early Thursday morning in Brussels, there has been no word of the EU agreeing on the finalized version of the sanctions package.
According to Reuters, Prime Minister Viktor Orban has long made his stance on sanctioning the Russian church leader known: Hungary's opposition to potential EU sanctions against the head of the Russian Orthodox Church, Patriarch Kirill, "has been known for a long time," Prime Minister Viktor Orban's press chief told state news agency MTI on Thursday.
"We will not allow the inclusion of church leaders in the sanctions list," Orban reiterated this week in a radio interview, stressing that religious freedom must be protected as a "sacred issue."
The EU’s planned Russian oil ban will prohibit deliveries from Russian ships. While it has exemptions for pipeline deliveries, EU officials said the ban will cut around 90% of the EU’s oil imports from Russia. The sanctions are meant to hurt Russia, but as the EU has been preparing the ban, Moscow has been busy finding other markets and is now shipping more than twice the amount of oil it was before the invasion of Ukraine. More shipments have been going to China and India, and now Asia has surpassed Europe as the top buyer of Russian oil.

Canadian Bank Apologizes to Freedom Convoy Protest Participant For Freezing His Account
“Please accept our sincere apologies.”
A Canadian bank has apologized to a man who participated in the Freedom Convoy protest for freezing his account at the behest of Justin Trudeau’s government. Earlier this year, in order to stop what the Trudeau regime referred to as “illegal blockades,” the government froze bank accounts belonging to demonstrators and others who merely donated money to them.
The protests began as a defiant rebuke to the Trudeau regime’s attempts to impose vaccine mandates and ended with his government demonizing participants as violent extremists and using riot police to disperse crowds. At the height of the unrest, Canadian authorities even refused to rule out using the military against the protesters. Months later, “Scotiabank apologized to Benjamin Dichter for freezing his account because he was believed to be an organizer of the protests,” reports Reclaim the Net. The letter the bank sent to Dichter states, “Please accept our sincere apologies for the frustration and inconvenience this situation may have caused.” “We can confirm that financial institutions acted quickly to unfreeze accounts after the RCMP notified us that it believes that individuals and entities previously identified are no longer engaged in conduct or activities prohibited under the Emergency Measures Regulations.” Dichter said he didn’t believe banks went out of their way to target customers, but were under intense pressure from the government.
“I believe It came from somewhere else. They didn’t do it on their own accord,” he said.
“My interpretation of their response is, ‘we do not want to do this,’” he added. “As soon as they allowed us to give you access to your account, we did so immediately. It wasn’t our choice.”

What the Fed’s ‘QT’ Means for That $2 Trillion Pile of Cash
In late May, investors flush with cash and left with nowhere else to put it parked a record of more than $2 trillion overnightFIFY $2t EVERY fuggen night for daysat the US Federal Reserve. Starting June 1, the Fed will begin draining that plus $3.3 trillion of bank reserves from its nearly $9 trillion balance sheet to put all of this money in motion -- a process it called quantitative tightening. While the central bank is leaning on facilities it created in recent years to contain ructions in US markets, there are still a number of ways this process could create turbulence.
-
Where did all this money come from?
Primarily from the unprecedented stimulus the Fed unleashed when the Covid-19 pandemic crashed the global economy in early 2020. Over the last two years, it bought roughly $4.6 trillion of Treasuries and mortgage-backed securities through quantitative easing to keep longer-term interest rates low and stimulate the economy. Yet the process, also known as QE, created a wall of money that needed to get deposited somewhere, leading to ballooning bank reserves. As the Fed embarks on policy tightening, the hope was that lenders pass that liquidity along as credit to companies and households, spurring growth. 2. What about the money held by short-term investors?
Of the $4.6 trillion of assets in the money-market industry, roughly $4 trillion is invested with funds that are allowed to invest only in high-quality, short-term assets like Treasury bills or repurchase agreements. Those balances grew during the pandemic as the result of stimulus from the Fed and US Treasury. QE has left banks holding more cash than they’d like, so they continue to nudge depositors to place cash with money-market funds instead.
-
Why is so much money getting parked with the Fed?
The growth in cash sloshing around has coincided with a shrinkage in the pool of assets in which money-market funds can invest. The Treasury has been slashing its supply of bills since the end of 2020. While the Fed’s QE continued to add cash to the financial system, Washington’s late 2021 debt-ceiling drama and now unexpectedly robust tax receipts has left market participants in fierce competition for assets. Enter the Fed’s facility for overnight reverse repurchase agreements, where money funds can park up to $160 billion apiece and earn 0.80% -- more than about 0.70% for a one-month Treasury bill.
-
Quantitative tightening is about to begin. How does it work?
QT will reduce the supply of reserves as the Fed plans to roll over some of the bonds on its balance sheet at maturity without replacing it with other assets. If the amount of coupon-bearing debt maturing is less than that, it can fill the gap by not replacing some of its bills too.
The government will then “pay” back the maturing bond by subtracting the sum from the cash balance Treasury keeps on deposit with the Fed -- effectively making the money disappear.
-
How will it affect bank reserves?
To meet its spending obligations, the Treasury needs to replenish its cash pile by selling new debt. Normally, banks reduce their own reserves when they buy those securities, thus draining money from the system and undoing the impact of QE. This time, it’s not exactly clear how the larger flood of liquidity that’s been built up since March 2020 will clear.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA
not exactly clear....HILARIOUS!!!!

Let me 'splain it for (You) stoopid 'journalist' from the WaPO
And there will be another one for over $2T or thereabouts today too-although they may back off since they put out this drivel trying to explain it to everyone.'
The system takes the 'cash' which is really what they say is coming ala Central Banks Digital Currency (0's and 1's)-they just do not have tokens yet but that is what they want and is coming...on a ledger and exchange them for US Treasury notes in the Reverse Repo Process. They "sell" Mortgage Backed Securities to the NYFRB for the same "cash" and in the Securities Lending Operation they just shuffle the fuggen deck chairs around on the ~~Titanic~~ Olympic and toss all sorts of shitty assets back and forth (these are also used for shorting as well-see DTCC and the lack of clearing they do) so that they all don't have to continue carrying declining or in some cases worthless assets on the books for months at a time. Why do they do this-the NYFRB buys all this shit "at Par" which means FULL VALUE.
They then take the Treasuries and leverage those into whatever they want and throw THAT at the Mkts, same with the "cash" they get from the MBS sales and the Securities Lending is even worse and they can do BOTH of those ops with that shit.
This is a stealth bail-out for the banking system because they know that the one in 2008 will never get through again (the public would pitch-fork and torch them-and rightly so)-that one the $750B was just the start and was used to re-capitalize the banking system because they blew themselves up then. They never fixed ANY of it which is why you have over $153T of OTC (and way moar off books) of derivatives that they use and create in massive quantities to cover up the mistakes they make.
Muh guess is if you actually totaled up ALL of it-and that is impossible from the outside looking in we are looking at $2-4 Quadrillion of 'assets" they have to do all this shit with.
AG contracts traded on the COMEX decreased yesterday from Tuesday-59,002 at 5k pe contract gives you 295,010,000/ozs with an input price of $21.83/oz (rough) and you have: $6.440B for the total yesterday

Hedge fund giant Tiger Global has reportedly lost 52% this year as tech losses accelerated in May
The fund saw its losses accelerate last month as it fell 14.2%, significantly underperforming the broader stock market indices. In May, the S&P 500 was flat and the Nasdaq 100 fell just 2%. The latest decline also deepened year-to-date losses at the hedge fund, which was down 44% at the end of April.
The losses have wiped out more than $16 billion in assets under management for Tiger Global, erasing years of spectacular gains as founder Chase Coleman rose tech stocks all the way up — and now all the way down. The hedge fund also owns stakes in private tech companies, which have been marked down considerably amid the ongoing market decline.
"We take very seriously that our recent performance does not live up to the standards we have set for ourselves over the last 21 years and that you rightfully expect. Our team remains maximally motivated to earn back recent losses," the hedge fund wrote in an investor letter seen by Bloomberg. Tiger Global's commitment to make back the lost money for its investors is the exact opposite of what Gabe Plotkin's Melvin Capital did. After suffering severe losses of more than 50% after it was caught on the wrong side of the GameStop short-squeeze, Plotkin decided to shut down Melvin Capital.
Some of the top stocks that have been hammering Tiger Global lower include JD.com, Sea Limited, Snowflake, Shopify, and Block, among others. A look at its most recent 13F filing shows a portfolio riddled with high-flying tech stocks that have little to no profits and previously traded at elevated valuations. That hasn't been a winning strategy this year as the Fed embarks on its first interest rate hike cycle since 2018.
https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/funds/tiger-global-down-52-percent-tech-losses-accelerated-in-may-2022-6
this is what you saw starting a few weeks ago with those big down days-it was THIS getting liquidated, was also Softbank and partially Melvin Capital-which announced it was liquidating but they already do it when YOU hear about it- later but THIS is the one that started it off
They all do the same thing so the other circled one on cap#2 in Bill Hwang who 'ran' Archegos Capital and you all know how that went so look to this list for the next casualties because see cap #3 for the cross investments of all these douche-bags.
It's a lot like what they call "Quant" Investing-all the same people doing the SAME EXACT SHIT-just who used moar or less leverage and it looks like "Chase" used a little less than "Bill" but the next one on that list will probably be Lee Ainslie at Maverick Capital or Andreas Halvorsen at Viking Global-when you use that much leverage and in some cases it is well over 100:1 sideways or flat DOES NOT CUT IT...it MUST GO UP
Oil gets a boost: Biden celebrates as OPEC+ agrees to ramp up production
The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries cartel and its extended group of allied producers known as OPEC+ agreed Thursday to ramp up oil production this summer after months of resistance amid soaring global energy prices. The group, which includes Russia, said it would boost output by 648,000 per day in July and August, a higher-than-expected increase after previously sticking to a more gradual schedule of increased output agreed to last year following cuts made during the pandemic. The oil-producing nations have been pumping an additional 432,000 barrels of crude for months, up from 400,000.
Not gonna do shite as you an see the WTI price surely reflects the efficacy of that-wasn't enough-go back to what I said about the truth about Oil-namely that it is an anaerobic bacteria-and ask yourself why they are selling not only the Production side of Aramco but the trading side of it too >>136654, >>136665 pb
And they started talking about the next chunk of Aramaco's Production IPO back in Feb >>124682 Saudi Aramco Restarts Discussions on Fresh Share Sale That Could Top 2019 IPO-bnnB'Berg
The Biden administration celebrated the OPEC+ decision. The U.S. has been pushing for OPEC+ to make just such a move as Americans face record-high gasoline prices that are driving inflation. "The United States welcomes the important decision from OPEC+ today to increase supply by more than 200,000 barrels per day in July and August based on new market conditions," the White House said in a statement. The Biden administration has sought to ease rising gas prices by releasing a record 180 million barrels from the already-depleted Strategic Petroleum Reserve over six months starting in March, but costs at the pump continue to climb.

>>137077, >>137080 * Hedge fund giant Tiger Global has reportedly lost 52% this year as tech losses accelerated in May
* let me clarify a remark in 080-they are liquidating those stocks and if you own any of them they are fuggen with you directly by the poor decisions THEY made to lever up in those and now get called out (margin) so they drop because of all that forced selling. Hopefully you are smart enough to not give them $ directly but many do.
The golden Boy at Tiger losing his ASS (and has been all year) and look for the next victims to come from that list. Melvin Capital already shut down so this is only a matter of time to see who is forced to liquidate as see title from today-it simply needs to go UP or they ded and get Mr Margin on line #1.

Treasury ComplexPretty much nuffin with this but 10 year hovering just below 3% as Kenny's chicken is back on at the FOMC and look a the Securities Ops on the 10 year-TOTALLY managing this and the 30 year. 2 year yield down a little-and this is the "gauge" on what the FOMC gonna do with prime '''2.638% -0.012% and was stuck at 2.666% >>136883 yesterday on the FED heads walking back the comments from Bostic last week. Summary: The long-end of the curve did underperform modestly today (2Y unch, 30Y +2bps) but on the week the long-end is notably outperforming the belly's weakness.
FOREX-US$, Ruble, Yen, Pound, EUROUS $ down almost 3/4 of a % at 101.760.73 -0.71% and a steady drip lower. Muh ¥ showed a tad bit of strength today 129.86-0.30 -0.23% but this is heading back over 130 unless teh NYFRB gets into gear with buying it as they have already 'tested' it on 0522 with a token amount of $51k-just to show everyone they are gonna do it later. Pound is up roughly equal to the US $ at 1.2578+0.0092 0.74%. The EURO up moar at 1.0747+0.0094 0.88% which naturally means the the Ruble is down at 0.0156860.000062 -0.39%-it is right at it's daily mid-range. The big 'loser' is the EURO because it makes everything the average person does moar expensive against the other FIAT pieces of shit-which hurts the people who live in that area-naturally the Gov't P's of shit in Brussels love it.
MetalsAg up today at it's 'print' time of 1:30pm est +0.41 +1.86% and Au is +21.90 +1.19% so this will slow down the Gold Silver ratio by $83.921-0.624 (-0.74%) but still a YUGE gift and the availability of the smaller pieces of silver has gotten slightly better but the 1oz rounds and bars and basically everything under 10/oz is hard to come by and still has those stoopid premiums. Those #'s will change from this report time cause they usually drift a bit higher but they will be close-see cap#5 for final. What this tells you is that this market has already BROKEN and they can't admit it. Your local may or may not tell you that but ask yourself why you can't get anything at a reasonable 2-3% over spot right?....some of them know but many do not. I've seen some pretty ridiculous take in prices BELOW spot (not at muh local) and then the rip you off turn around +10% or moar on that. But see they have HUGE demand at the US Mint but only want to tell you about the Gold side of it....not the other issues see here: >>137033 Demand For American Gold Eagles Explodes (but shhhhh....don't tell them they are not securing the Ag blanks like they are required to by Law) >>137061 AG contracts traded on the COMEX decreased yesterday from Tuesday-59,002

Oil/EnergyWTI is all about OPEC+ 'cartel' news see here >>137081, >>137086 with the SPR at record lows and the Saudis saying they are gonna "pump" moar you should really think about the truth about oil as I've already mentioned. They can literally "pump at will' so ask yourself why and how is that possible? Natty gas news sez that there is a storage problem (as in below 5 yr avg) as prices were up again and the storage issue is not going away anytime soon. We are sending about 12 billion to 13 billion cubic feet of LNG EVERY DAY so how long can we continue to do this right? They are going to need to settle the issues they have with this on there own but I'm sure Biden will make us all continue to pay for it all-been the case so far.

NYFRB Operations todaythe paper game vs 'cash'
The market shrugged off hawkish comments from Lael Brainard (Fed Vice Chair), who dismissed the 'September pause' idea and Loretta Mester (Cleveland Fed), who suggested rates should get above neutral and warned that recession risk had risen. She also noted that Fed officials "all aligned" on the fact that inflation is way too high and that it's the No. 1 problem in the economy.
