📈What Happened In Stocks in 20 Charts
This week was filled with several unexpected surprises that shook the market. The FOMC minutes released on Wednesday showed that the Fed is still worried about inflation. They remain committed to more interest rate hikes and are concerned about commercial real estate (CRE) loans outstanding. While it is clear that the Fed should be concerned about CRE and the impact on banks, there was a line in the minutes that raised eyebrows. In regard to CRE, "Several participants noted the susceptibility of some nonbank financial institutions, such as money market funds or digital asset entities, to runs or instability." The fact that they are concerned about runs on money market funds is not a normal statement, and this caused a rise in concerns. One day later, Evergrande, the second largest real estate developer in China, filed for bankruptcy. Evergrande has over 1,900 projects in 280 cities around the globe. Over 30% of China's GDP is real estate. Let's get to the charts!
