Help Making Money

One of the biggest reasons we enjoy the weekend is more time with family and friends. We can make our weekends (and weeks) even better by spending more time being social:

This paper exploits the richness and large sample size of the Gallup/Healthways US daily poll to illustrate significant differences in the dynamics of two key measures of subjective well-being: emotions and life evaluations. We find that there is no day-of-week effect for life evaluations, represented here by the Cantril Ladder, but significantly more happiness, enjoyment, and laughter, and significantly less worry, sadness, and anger on weekends (including public holidays) than on weekdays. We then find strong evidence of the importance of the social context, both at work and at home, in explaining the size and likely determinants of the weekend effects for emotions. Weekend effects are twice as large for full-time paid workers as for the rest of the population, and are much smaller for those whose work supervisor is considered a partner rather than a boss and who report trustable and open work environments. A large portion of the weekend effects is explained by differences in the amount of time spent with friends or family between weekends and weekdays (7.1 vs. 5.4 hours). The extra daily social time of 1.7 hours in weekends raises average happiness by about 2%.

In one scene of the movie, Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps, big time capitalists, Bretton James and Louis Zabel, are negotiating a stock bailout for Zabel’s firm, Keller Zabel Investments. In doing so, they reveal two powerful negotiating techniques that can help you secure the best deal.

James offers Zabel a measly $2 per share. “Under these conditions”, starts off James, “… [James and co] are prepared to risk $2 a share”.

“2 bucks?”, questions Zabel, breaking out in a nervous laughter shocked by the ridiculously low offer. “You're out of your mind. The stock was trading at 79 a month ago. Our building alone is worth more than 2 bucks a share. My board will never accept this. There is no way I'm going to sell for 2 bucks a share.”

The government representative steps in to back up James, telling Zabel that the government could never justify a high price for his firm and that he has no other option. If he doesn’t sell then he faces bankruptcy.

But Zabel remains unmoved. “I'll take my chances in bankruptcy court before I sell to that barracuda” angrily responds Zabel.

A blanket of silence falls over the room. It looks like the deal is off. Neither party is willing to pay the price the other is wanting.

The Defining Moment

Realising that the negotiation has reached stalemate, James decides to do something completely unexpected. While he really wants to buy Zabel’s firm and knows he is getting a great deal, he decides to walk away.

“Then we have nothing more to talk about” says James as he gets up out of his chair and turns to walk away.

But just as James reaches the door, Zabel calls out "6". It’s a counter offer.

“3 and that's it” responds James.

“5”

“3”

“Alright, we'll call it an even 4. So we don't look so god damn pathetic.”

James pauses for a moment, looks at his colleague for confirmation, who nods back at him in agreement, before taking a step forward. “3, and not a dime more,” says James and locks in the deal.

There are two key negotiation techniques used in the scene above.

Negotiation Technique 1: Use Anchoring and Adjustment

James started at $2 and Zabel started at $6. In what is called Anchoring and Adjustment (see Those Clever People at Wikipedia and a little phenomenon called anchoring) initial values, regardless of how extreme, have a strong affect on final values. In this case, James used a $2 anchor, not because he thought he would get it for such a low price but because he knew it would get Zabel to start thinking low values. To counter that effect, Zabel used a $6 counter anchor to get James to start thinking higher values.

If you are selling, start by asking a high price. If you are buying, start with a low price. The technique will subtly but strongly influence the figure the other party has in their mind, therefore allowing you to get the best price.

Despite the effectiveness of the technique, however, many people will not feel comfortable asking for an excessively high or low figure because they don't want to appear unreasonable. That is, they don’t want to risk the Zabellian response, ‘are you out of your mind?’

For those people, negotiation technique two provides for a more comfortable approach.

Negotiation Technique 2: Walk Away

Who wins in a negotiation? The one who is willing to walk away.

Guess what? Be willing to walk away. Even if you are willing to pay the asking price, pretend like you can walk away. This technique is especially useful for people who don’t see themselves as hard line negotiators.

Why? Because you do not have to haggle, you do not have to offer unreasonable figures, and you do not have to have a big mouth to use this technique. All it requires is that you risk not making the purchase on that very day, which, for most purchases worth negotiating for, is worth risking for.

Here’s How You Do It:

Next time you are negotiating with a business supplier, nicely tell the person:

“Thanks for your help but the price you’re offering is beyond my budget” (or whatever reason you want to give).

“But I’ll tell you what I’ll do. I’ll leave you my name and number and if you can do me a better deal, then give me a call and we can take it from there."

Now if that is the best price the salesperson can do then you probably will not get a phone call, in which case you can just go back the next day or so and buy the product. But if they can do you a better deal then they will call you. After all, you have already proved to them that you are not willing to pay their asking price.

What is more, 9 times out of 10 you will not even have to come back. If the salesperson is able to do a better deal, they will usually offer it to you on the spot. It will probably be along the lines of, “alright let me try asking my manager again and see if we can do you a better deal”.

Having been on both sides of the negotiation table (as a salesperson and as a buyer), I have seen this technique work over and over for all deals great and small. It is not only one of the most powerful negotiation techniques, but also one of the easiest and comfortable to use, which makes it all the more useful in securing yourself the best deal.

Making Money System

From Peter Tchir of TF Market Advisors

The Countdown to Sovereign Debt Write-offs Has Started

Don’t be fooled by the IMF’s announcement that Greece will get a new round of money. This bailout is merely to give a couple of months for the parties to seriously negotiate what haircuts and debt extensions investors need to take in Greece, and Ireland and Portugal. Virtually all the comments made by the parties involved fit in with the view that we are now in a phase where people are negotiating how much they will write off and what else they will do. Almost none of the comments indicate that anyone is really trying to put together a plan that is going kick the can down the road for a long time. I am fading this rally as only the most optimistic investor can believe that this problem doesn’t lead to real default/restructuring with haircuts in the next couple of months.

Why do banks waive covenants?

It looks like Greece has failed to meet the criteria the IMF had set out to provide more money, yet the IMF seems intent on releasing the next tranche. Banks typically waive covenants and release more money only when they truly believe the borrower will turn around, or when they extract enough value from the borrower that they feel safe making the new loan, or when they aren’t prepared to deal forcing the borrower into default.

Does anyone really believe that Greece is going to get turned around? I don’t. In fact I am highly confident that Greece will still not meet the criteria the IMF has set out when it is time for the next tranche. That will be the deadline for the default/restructuring. The IMF can waive the covenants this time because shortly they get to review the progress again and can fail them at that time.

The IMF, which allegedly has some collateral for the loans it is making, be receiving even more collateral on this latest tranche? Could they have perfected their security interests making their own loans extremely safe? That is a real possibility. If this next tranche only includes IMF money, or lending that is collateralized very specifically it would be another clear sign that the game has changed and the lenders are protecting their new loans at expense of existing bondholders.

Are the IMF, or the EU, or the ECB, or the banks prepared to deal with a default or real restructuring right now? The answer clearly seems to be no, but it is also clear that over the past month, the EU in particular has realized restructuring, possibly with losses needs to occur. Talk about the ‘Vienna accord’ and ‘voluntary private restructuring’ has become louder. That will take time. How do you easily pressure a bank into taking a loss, particularly while were still hopeful for a painless solution just a few weeks ago. These ‘voluntary’ decisions won’t be so voluntary, but it will take time for the governments to convince their banks en masse to reach an agreement.

Waiving the covenants and providing the next tranche of IMF money, particularly if fully secured, is completely consistent with the idea that we have entered a relatively short period of negotiations leading to real restructuring.

Germany is laying the groundwork for real write-offs.

Germany was the first EU member to suggest private sector haircuts. It has seemed more open to private sector losses than any other
government. Not only has the German Finance Minister been outspoken on his desire to include the private sector in any package, but the Bundesbank issued a statement that it is confident that the Euro can withstand Greek default. That was the first time in this crisis that a statement has come out trying to prepare the markets for a potential default. As statement start to come out stating that the banking system is strong enough to withstand a default, you know someone is seriously considering a default. I believe that this statement, which has been largely ignored, is a tell. It is the first step in the process of trying to soften the market.

Against this, the ECB continues to lash out that restructuring/default is not an option. At least that is how it seems on the surface. A little below the surface and it seems like they are starting to take some steps to soften their stance. First, and most importantly, Draghi seems to be the main spokesman. Trichet seems to be quiet on the subject now. Many people (at least me) blame Trichet for making the situation worse through the ECB’s wanton purchase of Greek (and Irish and Portuguese) bonds in the open market. By bringing Draghi to the front line are they starting to distance themselves from ECB policy under Trichet? Are they setting him up as a scapegoat? It is plausible to me. Then even looking more closely at what Draghi says also indicates a potential softening. He says “The cost of a real default…” What does he mean by real? Is that to make it easier to wiggle out down the road and say whatever happens wasn’t a “real” default?

Germany seems to be moving further into private losses and preparing the markets for how contained those losses will be and the ECB is softening a bit and making it easier to blame its original stance on Trichet if they change their mind.

What about contagion risk?

There is real risk of contagion. That is another reason that the EU/IMF/ECB need to buy a few more months because not only do they have to restructure Ireland and Portugal. When the next plan is announced it will be comprehensive and Greece, Ireland, and Portugal will be included. I had been surprised how quiet Ireland has been. Other than being mentioned in general terms as part of a contagion argument, relatively few new specifics were being talked about. Suddenly this week, here they are. Allied Irish sub debt had a credit Event. Noonan is speaking about haircuts for senior Allied Irish bondholders. He is commenting on Greece. It is not a coincidence in my mind that suddenly he is speaking out, as he is likely involved in this next phase of negotiations. In fact, it seems that the number of finance ministers and ECB officials who are hitting the airwaves is expanding. I assume if that many people feel the need to comment, something serious is going on behind the scenes.

Contagion risk is there, but it is being addressed so Greece, Ireland and Portugal can be sorted out at once, and the banks that would be in biggest trouble can get help if they need it.

The Government Changes in Greece Point to Default

You could argue that the changes to the Greek parliament are an attempt to get approval to jam another round of austerity on its people. That could be, but I think it is more likely that Prime Minister Papandreou does not want to be labeled as the man who put Greece in default or who crushed the Euro, so he is trying to escape that role, or drag others into a group to share the blame. He is clearly politically savvy, he was an MD at Goldman, and prime minister. If I was him I would be trying to do things so that my name doesn’t go down in history as the person who broke the Euro.

Banks Can’t Handle the Defaults

I really think most banks can handle the defaults. The most likely outcome, in my opinion, is there is some amount of permanent debt reduction and any remaining debt has its maturity extended for a long time. The banks that aren’t mark to market would have to take a loss on any permanent reduction in principal but there is no reason they have to take a loss on any debt that they extend the maturity. So if a bank took 100 million of 2 year bonds, and exchanged them for 80 million of 10 year bonds, they would take a write off of 20 million. That seems manageable for most banks (and the governments can directly support any bank that can’t handle it). From a stock price perspective, no one is buying the stocks of banks with big exposure to Greece, Ireland, and Portugal, on the basis that they don’t have impairments in the portfolio. Given where debt is currently trading, and how much of the write off is permanent, and the trading price of new bonds, bank stocks may rally. I occasionally read articles about banks trading below book value as being cheap. I usually stop there because I believe smart investors try to figure out the value of the banks holdings are not easily fooled by non mark to market accounting. If I am correct, the banks will have some big losses, their share prices may not react much, and the various EU countries can bailout their own banks directly if they choose to.

CDS?

A subject that will get its own write-up, but from the data available from the DTCC, concerns about CDS on sovereigns seems overblown, even if there is a Credit Event. Of all the subjects written about, the only that seems to get the least accurate treatment is the potential impact of CDS on the outcome. The problem is a debt problem. The bulk of all losses will result from poor lending and bond buying decisions. CDS will spread some gains and losses around, but will not in itself have a meaningful impact on the market. Trying to compare AIG is wrong as AIG had almost nothing to do with single name CDS and had ridiculously loose collateral terms even by the 2007 standards, let alone today. Lehman, with massive amounts of debt saw its CDS settle with little confusion, and the market dealt pretty well with the loss of Lehman as counterparty on so many CDS trades. There were more surprising losses from things as simple as repo agreements than from its role as CDS market maker.

The rich are getting richer during this economic crisis and in the UK, they've already made it much easier for the rich-but-dumb crowd to buy their way into universities. Now, the Tories have made money an even stronger component in the decision making process. Besides being more easy money for the bankers, anyone with a loan for university also gets easy access. (Unlike the US, university in the UK used to be reasonably priced and easy to afford without a bank loan. The Tory austerity plan blew up that old pricing model.)

So come to England where if you had wads of cash or if you want to help your local banker, you too can get ahead. Oh what a fair system brought to you by the blue bloods. How can anyone argue that this is not more class warfare from the haves?

Universities UK, which represents universities, has been consulted. Its president, Sir Steve Smith, who is vice-chancellor of Exeter University, said the proposal to allow banks to exploit the student market carried huge risks and could create a two-tier education system.

He said the Department for Business Innovation and Skills had proposed that students taking private loans would be counted outside the allotment of places each university is given by the government, making them attractive to colleges aiming to increase their cash flow.

Smith said the consequent risk of a two-tier higher education system had "nasty" implications. "They [the government] have talked to us about that, but the trouble is that it has the obvious objection that it looks awfully like those people buying their way in."
