Pries Capital Macroeconomic Framework where we believe the two most critical variables in any economy are “Growth” and “Inflation.” The level of growth or inflation is not as important as the direction because the economy and asset markets are relative, not static. When we look to forecast the expected future direction of these two variables: “Growth” and “Inflation.” Is the rate of economic growth going to rise or fall? Of the two factors, the direction of real economic growth is more important for asset price performance.
Points of discussion:
• The economy has long-term (secular) trends and shorter-term (cyclical) trends.
• Secular trends are slow-moving and are impacted most closely by demographics and debt.
• Cyclical trends are 6 to 18-month fluctuations in growth and inflation, which occur on top of secular trends that are 3 to 5-years in nature.
• Asset prices respond very closely to the cyclical trends in economic growth and inflation.
• Pries Capital’s Macroeconomic Framework monitors both critical trends and details the probable path forward for asset prices.
