@RealJessica @WallStreetMav People shouldn’t be able to get in this much debt
English

“We are $1 million in debt.”
This woman and her husband have a total of just under $1,000,000 in debt, here’s the breakdown.
- Mortgage $210,000
- Student Loans $335,000
- Credit Cards $136,000
- Personal Loans $44,000
- Car Loans $35,000
She is only 29 years old, and her husband is 32 years old.
They both have “advanced degrees”. One in MBA and the other in policy. They both work in the government.
Their household income is $230,000.
I wouldn’t be able to breathe if I had $136K in credit card debt. This is insane. 😭
I really will never understand how people get themselves in these situations.

@JoshYoung @AlaliQasem What about the math of damaged infrastructure and shut-ins?

Even if Hormuz opens TOMORROW — here’s the math nobody is doing:
🚢 Tankers travel back to Middle East: 25-30 days
⛽ New tankers load and return: 25-30 days
Total: 50-60 days before flows normalize
And that’s the BEST case scenario.
Remember COVID?
OPEC+ cut 10M b/d in early April 2020.
Cuts didn’t start until May.
Oil crashed to NEGATIVE $37 two weeks later.
The supply response came too late.
History is rhyming. 🛢️💥
This is why we are headed for the breaking point.
Manage your expectations accordingly. ⏳

Ils tuent le cyclisme, Pogacar, Gianetti, UAE et les instances qui les couvrent, alors qu'il faudrait tuer le dopage. En guise de course de légende entre cinq pseudos fantastiques, on a encore assisté à un contre la montre de mutants, de proxénètes lors une fête foraine. #RVV

@DowdEdward If their money and investments will be affected, then they will backstop it
English

The question is will they backstop Private Credit?
They backstopped banks in 2023 that had paper losses on held to maturity bonds that had gone down in a rising interest rate environment.
Private credit funds are not banks and would they backstop bad credit with questionable collateral?
The political stink on that with stocks still near all time highs would be untenable.
My guess is no for now.

That is an ugly weekly chart. If you look back at the beginning of 2022 and compare it to this chart then this down move is only just beginning. It's all up to the Fed now, and at this point I am leaning toward them addressing private credit issues with come kind of backstop. Powell has been very quick to backstop banking issues since 2020. That could give us a few weeks of stopping the bleeding, but not necessarily the ingredients to resume making new all time highs. This cake might be baked folks, it's a question of how fast we fall now.
