“Recovery on track” 2021 Outlook April 19, 2021 PRESENTED BY Alex Oxenham, CFA Co-Chief Investment Officer C O N TA C T U S 1010 Franklin Avenue, Suite 300A Garden City, NY 11530 (516) 693-5380 info@hiltoncm.com
HILTON CAPITAL: 2021 OUTLOOK Here is our Economic Outlook as of April 19, 2021. It has been 101 days since our last update. Over the past 101 days US & Global economic data has surged into overdrive especially in the United States. The recovery has been broad-based as the service side of the economy begins to catch up with the goods side as the vaccine begins to allow for improved mobility. The economy of the United States has been the primary beneficiary carried by an effective and highly organized vaccination campaign. As movement restrictions are being lifted consumers are eager to catch-up on lost time. Google search trends for vacations are slowly beginning to displace searches for unemployment. Globally, vaccination campaigns have been mixed and thus the recovery is slower outside of the United States. The global recovery should be strong but it will lag the recovery we are seeing in our domestic economy. Another large stimulus package is adding further fuel to the recovery at the same time the economy is beginning to achieve normalization. The Labor market healing process is picking up steam which is great news for 8.2 million workers still displaced from the Covid recession. We are optimistic they will be employed within the next 10 months as we expect continued accelerated employment gains in the months ahead. Over the next two months the economic data is likely to further accelerate to what will quite likely end up being the “peak” for this economic cycle. Importantly this acceleration will be compared to April and May of 2020 which were effectively disasters thus it will mark some of the best data we have even seen in our careers. Beyond June the comparisons will get much tougher as we begin to anniversary the start of the initial stimulus plan and the gradually reopening opening that occurred last summer. We would expect economic data to remain robust later this summer but we are aware that it is likely to rollover a bit as comparing to one of the sharpest economic recoveries of all time is not a normal occurrence. Over the past three months we have made only small changes within our portfolio because we’ve fortunately already been constructed very optimistically. Our allocation to equities continues to remain near maximum levels. We also continue to favor somewhat more cyclical names over traditional income oriented names. As reopening continues to occur we expect to methodically begin to reposition the portfolio toward our more traditional state with a focus on less cyclicality and more quality. We continue to believe interest rates are biased higher and while we have a heightened state of awareness regarding inflation we are not concerned about significant above trend inflation. With elevated levels of money supply in the financial system coupled with global interest rates essentially cut to zero and expected to remain low for the foreseeable future the environment remains very constructive for risk taking in the near term. Newer observations/comments are highlighted in red. 2 Slides Removed / 1 Slide Updated Page 3- The central tendency midpoint was increased in the March 2021 meeting. Long run GDP projection was increased to 1.90% from 1.85%. Not really a big deal. Page 4- ISM Services and Manufacturing indices; are absolutely soaring as a very strong recovery is occurring in the United States. We expect the data to remain strong and possibly strengthen further into June of 2021. Thereafter we are likely to retrace some of these gains as the economy normalizes. The market reaction to a slowdown (rate of change) will be interesting. 1010 Franklin Avenue, Suite 300A Garden City, NY 11530 (516) 693-5380 info@hiltoncm.com
HILTON CAPITAL: 2021 OUTLOOK Page 5 – ISM manufacturing: Global Manufacturing PMIs - A much stronger rebound in US manufacturing data vs. global data. The US is seeing better growth than the international segment most likely associated with more fiscal and monetary support from authorities in addition to an effective and highly organized vaccination campaign taking place. Page 6- Atlanta FED Q12021 GDP forecast is +8.3%. Q22021 will be even better. Page 7- GDP estimates from a variety of sources. GDP for 2021 probably comes in around +6.0% to +8.0%. The economy probably full healed itself GDP wise from the Covid recession at the end of Q12021. Now we need to catch-up for lost time. Page 8 – Conference Board US leading Indicators immediately contracted signaling a recession. It took than 1 month. This is a very unusual situation as it usually contracts for an average of 15 months before the onset of a recession. Very quick recovery suggesting the recession is likely already over. Page 9 - Inflation has bottomed. Inflation should increase significantly in the short term as commodity prices increase and we compare versus the 2020 inflation lows. It’s tough for us to suggest inflation is going to surge over the long-run but within the next six months it will look elevated. We will remain vigilant in regards to needing to protect against higher levels of sticky long-term inflation. Page 10- Oil Prices drive inflation expectations. Here you can compare the price of WTI (West Texas Crude) with 10 year Inflation. The correlation between oil and inflation expectations is strong at times. If oil prices remain firm, as a result of global supply cuts, we may have seen the worst of the deflationary shock associated with the pandemic. So far it looks like we were correct. From here, oil prices look like they will continue to increase into the middle of 2021. Inflation break evens are back to 2013 levels. Page 11- Initial Claims & JOLTS Layoffs and Discharges: Unemployment according to initial jobless claims has been an outlier of negative data since the pandemic first took place. In the current state the signal it’s giving is dubious at best. State unemployment claims systems were overloaded with filings on top of obsolete technology systems. They were not designed for a pandemic. Additionally there is massive fraud taking place with bogus unemployment claims. Case in point, today I received notice that someone filed an unemployment claim on me 5 months ago. Looking at the newly added data set, JOLTs layoffs and Discharges, there is a much cleaner signal. Employment layoffs have already normalized to 2019 levels and we are very likely to see very strong employment results through the remainder of the year. Page 12-US Continuing Jobless Claims- This chart looks at the people who continue to receive unemployment benefits. This chart compares the job market losses with those during the global financial crisis. With vaccine deployment we should see improvement in this data series in the months ahead. Improvement has been significant but more work is needed to get back to a more satisfactory level. While still elevated we are making solid progress toward normalization and the labor market is much stronger this time around versus what we were dealing with after the global financial crisis. 1010 Franklin Avenue, Suite 300A Garden City, NY 11530 (516) 693-5380 info@hiltoncm.com
HILTON CAPITAL: 2021 OUTLOOK Page 13- US Unemployment Permanent Job Losers: This chart looks at the people who have transitioned to permanent joblessness from temporary unemployment. More permanent job losses will have second order effects of reducing future GDP growth in the years ahead as labor market skills atrophy for those experiencing extended unemployment. The labor market has exceeded our expectations. Permanent claims are declining and only ended up being half as bad as during the global financial crisis. Page 14- Comparing “Job openings” in blue versus actual “Hires” in black. The level of job openings improving will be an early indicator of the labor market healing. This data series is much more optimistic than the “official” labor market data. After the global financial crisis it took over 7 years for job openings to reach prior levels. This time around it took 14 months. The labor market looks ready to soar! Page 15- Labor Participation Rates by Gender: The nature of the pandemic has had a more negative effect on women workforce participation rates. We suspect fully remote and hybrid schooling is forcing more women than men to leave the workforce. Notice the data series between men and women begins to widen in August as the school year begins. The damage to female participation is healing fast. This is a great sign. Page 16- U.S. Small Business Optimism Index. Small Businesses data has improved from the initial dip and is above pre-covid levels. Recent weakness is centered on labor shortages and government regulation in additional to lingering concerns about Covid. Page 17- US Average Hourly Earnings of production and non-supervisory employees versus the Year over Year growth rate in non-farm payrolls. Notice that prior to each of the last six recessions Average hourly earnings (AHE) tend to peak before rolling over. Peak AHE is a late cycle phenomenon. The last 3 years of declining payroll growth was probably the best indicator of a pending recession. AHE has been boosted by fiscal support while the growth rate in jobs is still very much depressed. We expect the AHE figured to decline as lower wage workers, who were primarily hurt during covid, get back into the workforce. It’s more a function of math at this point versus being a negative data point. Page 18- New single family homes sold in the United States. In the past thirty years a rollover in the number of new homes sold from the “then cycle high” has preceded every recession by around 1-2 years. Lower interest rates have had significant positive impacts on the number of new single family homes. The housing market is probably one of the most resilient major segments of the US Economy at the moment. Lower rates, demographics and de-urbanization should continue to support housing in the coming years. New home construction remains incredibly strong. Strong demand and low inventory are very positive attributes. Page 19- Alternative Data- Business Foot Traffic: SafeGraph data provides unique and valuable insights particularly with foot-traffic to businesses and consumer points-of-interest. Here we show data from recent months on commercial activity (foot traffic trends) compared to the same time period from previous years to share insights into how the ongoing pandemic is impacting the US economy and disrupting daily life. Massive surge in business foot traffic associated with vaccination coupled with “stimmy” checks. Page 20- Alternative Data- Google Trends: Frequency of Google search terms give us an idea of the prevailing conditions in the US Labor Market. Here we can see that recent searches for vacation are overtaking searches for unemployment. A welcome development. 1010 Franklin Avenue, Suite 300A Garden City, NY 11530 (516) 693-5380 info@hiltoncm.com
HILTON CAPITAL: 2021 OUTLOOK Page 21- Alternative Data- OpenTable US Seated Diners: The data looks at aspects of the economic recovery. It highlights the overall impact of Covid 19 on the restaurant industry by showing year-over-year seated diners at a sample of restaurants on the OpenTable network across all channels: online reservations, phone reservations, and walk-ins. Significant rebound in open table diners is occurring but we still have a long way to go. Page 22- Dallas Fed Mobility and Engagement Index: summarizes the information in seven different variables based on geolocation data collected from a large sample of mobile devices to gain insight into the economic impact of the pandemic. Significant rebound in mobility and engagement but we still have a long way to go. Page 24– Higher Crude Oil prices encouraged production and then the Pandemic destroyed global demand forcing prices to collapse. Now producers will cut back supply in a major way as many marginal production companies will go bankrupt. As production is cut we would expect the price of crude oil to find its bottom if it has not already. Crude Oil continued to rebound while production remains stagnant. Energy companies do not have the same strong access to capital as they used to enjoy. Page 25 –Commodity prices have surged as the US Dollar continues its downtrend. Page 26- Emerging Market Equities have rallied VERY strongly as the USD has significantly weakened. A stronger USD (recently) and surging Covid cases in EM have broken the uptrend. Page 27- S&P 500 versus the S&P 500 Equal Weighted Index: Leadership is still somewhat narrow in 2021 but the equal weighted index is keeping close to the influence of the tech giant’s impact on the S&P 500. Page 28- It’s an excellent visualization of exactly how much stronger US equities have been versus the rest of the developed world. The US markets are back to 5 year highs of relative outperformance. Interestingly, foreign equities outperformed the US during the selloff in March. With the help of a somewhat disorganized vaccination campaign in Europe international equities have been unable to keep pace with the recovery unfolding in the United States. Page 29- Junk Bonds were +4.96% in 2020. Up 1.36% YTD 2021: Junk bonds have become somewhat unattractive due to incredible levels of spread tightening. How much outperformance is left as the spread seems to have fully narrowed? Page 30- When High Yield spreads widen the S&P 500 normally experiences a significant drawdown. Due to the sudden nature of this crisis there was absolutely no warning from credit spreads prior to the recession. The speed of spread compression has been very remarkable. HY spreads have almost collapsed to cycle lows. Page 31- Credit spreads have narrowed considerably and are very near at pre Covid cycle lows. We think this will probably mark the cycle low in credit spreads. 1010 Franklin Avenue, Suite 300A Garden City, NY 11530 (516) 693-5380 info@hiltoncm.com
HILTON CAPITAL: 2021 OUTLOOK Page 32- US interest rates have meaningfully declined (collapsed) across all maturity ranges. The FED has shorter rates somewhat pinned due to their massive QE program. The 30 year rate is now a very good barometer of longer term inflation trends while other longer term rates are also being dragged higher. Inflation? Page 33- 10 to 2 yield spread- The inverted yield curve in the middle of 2019 was a correct harbinger once again. The curve is getting steeper which is normal in recessions. We would expect the yield curve to steepen further during a recovery. Page 34 – The S&P 500 is overvalued on basically every metric. Valuations are not attractive under almost all traditional scenarios. Corporate margins are likely to increase thus the market may not look as expensive as it does now later in 2021. EV/EBITDA is very elevated as most large companies feasted on debt during the crisis. The recent up move in the market has been offset by higher earnings. PE multiples have not really expanded lately. Page 35 – Size of the Federal Reserve’s Balance Sheet - The Fed’s balance sheet has grown by almost 3.6 Trillion dollars in the last twelve months. The size and scope of the Federal Reserve’s intervention in the markets is staggering but was needed. We would assume any further economic malaise will be met with aggressive Fed action. We added M2 money supply growth as a new chart on the bottom half of the page. M2 US money supply is up 27.1% YoY which is the highest level of money supply growth since the FED has kept records back to 1960! MMT is here although no one in the government would utter the phrase. M2 velocity was added, which collapsed by 18% in 2020 which does somewhat limit the impact of money supply increases on inflation. Opportunities to spend money during a pandemic are much harder to come by. Page 36 - Highlights the Duration and Magnitude of Historical Bull and Bear Markets. The average recession lasts around 15 months. Updated for 2020; which makes one of the most challenging markets barely noticeable. Page 37- Important Legal Notes and Disclosures. Thank you.
