Arthur Hayes: Rate Hikes or Increased Money Supply, Financial Assets Will Continue to Rise

Odaily reports: Arthur Hayes posted on the X platform that raising interest rates when government debt levels are high has a stimulative effect: bank reserve earnings increase, and the returns for holders of short-term Treasury bonds also increase, which overall will drive more consumption, especially consumption of financial assets.He stated that although the Federal Reserve stopped RMP purchases in mid-August, when accounting for bank balance sheet expansion, the combined assets of the Federal Reserve and banks are still growing and creating money. As the quantity of money increases, even if its price rises, financial assets will continue to appreciate.
