Notes for Tuesday:


0.“If cash flows and expected growth have not changed over the month, the price of equity risk has jumped from 5.38% at the start of the month to the 5.89% on October 26, putting it at the high end of equity risk premiums in the last decade.
Damodaran 

1.From Bloomberg:
Angela Merkel’s announcement yesterday marks the last chapter of her long domination of German politics. She is stepping down as the head of Germany’s Christian Democratic Union and says she won’t run for re-election. What’s less certain is whether she will see out her full term as chancellor, which might run until 2021, and whether the country’s political center can survive without her.

Nothing new here Schroeder left the party in 2004 and stayed as chancellor.

2. The polls are showing that the Republicans will lose the House. That definitely has capital scared. The Democrats are just hostile right now and it does not matter if something is good or bad - they are simply out for revenge. That is what has capital really upset.

3.From Clifwater Weekly

  (Brazilian Macro Manager #1) Long, then Short BRL: Far-right populist Jair Bolsonaro is widely expected to defeat his left-wing opponent Fernando Haddad in the nation’s final presidential vote on Sunday.  Bolsonaro’s win will lead to a nice bounce, and which will be nice entry point to short BRL.  Bolsonaro’s honeymoon period won’t last long – he’s political unsavvy, congress remains very fragmented, and Brazil faces considerable fiscal headwinds.  This will ultimately lead to downward pressure on the BRL and Brazilian equities


4.Price of Power in Europe

My country Portugal despite being one of the poorest have one of the highest prices of Power in Europe, 0,22 per kwh above the European average 0,2!
