As has come back became a reality what 7 00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:20,959 Speaker 1: assets money may flow to next? 8 00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:23,840 Speaker 2: So you know, if we have an equity market that 9 00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:30,040 Speaker 2: could rise by twenty percent within the year, that's pretty significant. 10 00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:32,280 Speaker 1: What do you think, Greg, the lesson should be for 11 00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:38,640 Speaker 1: investors on the prediction market versus the polls? Is the 12 00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:40,840 Speaker 1: lesson always follow the money? Oh? 13 00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:42,120 Speaker 2: It seems to be, doesn't it. 14 00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:54,320 Speaker 1: Major US stock markets, the S and P five hundred 15 00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:58,400 Speaker 1: and Nasdaq have hit new records, marking the best post 16 00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:01,600 Speaker 1: election day in their history. That's on top of the 17 00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:04,440 Speaker 1: lead up to the US election, where the same markets 18 00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:08,440 Speaker 1: had their best pre election performance since nineteen thirty six. 19 00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:12,920 Speaker 1: According to investor Pedia, investors were favoring bank stocks as 20 00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:16,199 Speaker 1: well as the US dollar and gold. As the result 21 00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:19,560 Speaker 1: rolled in, Bitcoin had its biggest moment here we Go, 22 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:23,319 Speaker 1: having an all time hive seventy five thousand US dollars 23 00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:30,280 Speaker 1: on America's election night, so she couldn't have written a 24 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:30,880 Speaker 1: better script. 25 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:32,680 Speaker 3: Having it hit a new all time high on the 26 00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:33,440 Speaker 3: night of the election. 27 00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:35,480 Speaker 1: I think one of the most important things is we 28 00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:36,800 Speaker 1: have the first bitcoin president. 29 00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:42,080 Speaker 2: Hello, bitcoiners, thank you very much. Hello, it's good to 30 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 2: be with you. 31 00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:47,040 Speaker 1: The frenzy flowed into Black Rocks Bitcoin exchange traded fund, 32 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:50,680 Speaker 1: taking in one billion US dollars of inflows in the 33 00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:54,280 Speaker 1: first twenty minutes of the market opening post election result. 34 00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:58,080 Speaker 1: On the night, the prediction markets bet the polls with 35 00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:01,240 Speaker 1: billions of dollars in punts price singing a Trump victory 36 00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 1: before it was actually officially announced. Traders executed that accordingly. 37 00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:09,399 Speaker 1: On the bond market, This is how the short term 38 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 1: two year and long term ten year bond yields responded 39 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:17,200 Speaker 1: on election night, going vertical, according to JB. Drax on Or. 40 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 1: That was on top of increases in the weeks leading 41 00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 1: up as trade is priced in risks to inflation from 42 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 1: Trump's proposed plan, including higher tariffs on imports. Analysis of 43 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:34,040 Speaker 1: candidate campaign promises suggested Trump would trigger a deepening in 44 00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:37,880 Speaker 1: the US fiscal deficit of around seven point seven trillion 45 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 1: US dollars. 46 00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:43,960 Speaker 3: Just because the promises has given of significant tax cuts 47 00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:47,200 Speaker 3: are generally estimated to be far larger than the ones 48 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:49,680 Speaker 3: that Democrats have, and I think we would end up 49 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:50,840 Speaker 3: in a deficit situation. 50 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:54,440 Speaker 1: Whether that occurs or is allowed by Congress is yet 51 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:58,320 Speaker 1: to be seen, but US based economists have their concerns. 52 00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:01,400 Speaker 3: The United States all deficits a little bit like those 53 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:04,160 Speaker 3: fancy credit cards that'll tell you what the credit limit is. 54 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 3: There is a credit limit, but the only way to 55 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:08,799 Speaker 3: find out is a by hitting it, and I think 56 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:11,359 Speaker 3: that's what has economists concerned. 57 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 1: Tiger Brokers Chief strategy Officer Greg Bolland has been watching 58 00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 1: all as it's closely before, during, and after the US election. 59 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:22,519 Speaker 1: Look at Tesla, I mean that was not as high 60 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:24,480 Speaker 1: as fifteen percent on stage this morning. 61 00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:25,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, well so it's nearly there again. 62 00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 1: So never met against Elona. 63 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:29,920 Speaker 2: Now, I've never been against Elon is obviously back the 64 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:31,320 Speaker 2: winning horse here Peces. 65 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 1: If it's anything like the last Trump presidency, stocks will 66 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:38,040 Speaker 1: be in for a boost. Great, good to see you, 67 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 1: Thank you so much for doing this big week. 68 00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 2: Yes, thank you, medicine.

So last week we had two hundred and 71 00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 2: fifty six of the S and P five hundred stocks report, 72 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:51,200 Speaker 2: and then this week obviously we've got the election and 73 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 2: tomorrow morning news on in time the Federal Reserve, it 74 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:58,200 Speaker 2: probably will well ninety chance of also reducing rates by 75 00:03:58,240 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 2: another twenty five basis points. 76 00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:01,920 Speaker 1: Great, mostly between us until the weekend. Then that's when 77 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 1: we can restore it. 78 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:06,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, and around them. Walk on to Halp Medison last Saturday, 79 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 2: just to keep myself in tune. 80 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 1: Oh that's great. Like, I want to ask you about 81 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 1: your Trump trades, if you don't mind sharing, how were 82 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:15,720 Speaker 1: you prepositioned going into this and if you don't mind 83 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 1: telling us, how have they played out for you? 84 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 2: My own personal trades mostly been selling puts against stocks 85 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:27,200 Speaker 2: that I think are going to rise. So with stocks 86 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:31,799 Speaker 2: like quoll Con they're reporting is tomorrow, the stock prices 87 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 2: around one sixty yesterday, it's around one seventy today, and 88 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 2: so I'm happy to buy it at one fifty. So 89 00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:40,080 Speaker 2: if I sell a put, I make some money out 90 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 2: of that put premium that someone's prepared to pay me. 91 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 2: That's how I've done it, just by selling productions on 92 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 2: markets that on stocks that I think are going. 93 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:51,360 Speaker 1: To go higher. You're always the derivatives guy, I love it. 94 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 1: Let's talk about all those broad Trump trades that we're 95 00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 1: seeing across markets right now. Equities are certainly up in 96 00:04:57,160 --> 00:05:00,919 Speaker 1: the US across the board significantly, big tech, real winner, banks, 97 00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 1: a big winner Bitcoin, USD. I mean, give me the 98 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:05,640 Speaker 1: color on how this has played out and how strong 99 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:05,919 Speaker 1: it is. 100 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:09,360 Speaker 2: Okay, So the main thing is what the markets want 101 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 2: is certainty, and this has been a very decisive win 102 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 2: for Trump and also the Republicans in terms of the 103 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:18,600 Speaker 2: Senate and also Congress. So it is definitely a move 104 00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:22,800 Speaker 2: in their case the red or to the right towards 105 00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:26,880 Speaker 2: it Republican government. In terms of the Trump trades, as 106 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:30,279 Speaker 2: you said, there's certain stocks that are done particularly well. 107 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:33,839 Speaker 2: And if we look at at the markets today, the 108 00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:37,839 Speaker 2: Trump related stocks themselves, like Trump Media, is actually more 109 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 2: or less flat, although yesterday it was up around fifty 110 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:43,799 Speaker 2: or sixty percent in the after ours market last night. Today, 111 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:47,719 Speaker 2: the financials have been the big winner and definitely the 112 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:50,599 Speaker 2: top two out of the stocks that have gone higher 113 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:55,560 Speaker 2: is Goldman Sachs and JP Morgan both up. JP Morgan 114 00:05:55,640 --> 00:06:01,719 Speaker 2: up ten and a half percent, and Godman stacks up 115 00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:04,359 Speaker 2: about up a little bit more than that, but also 116 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:08,520 Speaker 2: the likes of Morgan, Stanley and City and Wells Fargo 117 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:10,040 Speaker 2: all up between sort of eight and a half and 118 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 2: twelve and a half percent, so they'll been the biggest 119 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:14,720 Speaker 2: winner in terms of stocks. And if you look at 120 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 2: the S and P five hundred out of the top 121 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:20,599 Speaker 2: twenty gainers, eleven are financials. 122 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 1: While financial is up so strongly, I'm assuming that that's 123 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:28,159 Speaker 1: because investors are now taking out the risk of extra regulation, right. 124 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:35,600 Speaker 2: Yes, extra regulation, tax perhaps and benefiting smaller companies. Companies grow, 125 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:39,640 Speaker 2: they need to then list or or get more capital, 126 00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:41,799 Speaker 2: so they go to the big banks for that capital. 127 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:46,280 Speaker 2: And also more certainty abound interest rate it's going forward 128 00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 2: and inflation coming down definitely. The job numbers last week 129 00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:53,600 Speaker 2: were pretty weak. The ICN numbers this week were reasonable, 130 00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:57,520 Speaker 2: So the chances of probability of a rate cut on 131 00:06:57,560 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 2: Friday is very high. 132 00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:02,760 Speaker 1: Where do you think equities could go from here? If 133 00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:06,400 Speaker 1: you look at history, how have US equity markets performed 134 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:09,680 Speaker 1: when there has been such a decisive like this election 135 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 1: result and also a Republican result. 136 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:14,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, so in terms of in terms of the 137 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:17,320 Speaker 2: results so we can we can look at charts in 138 00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:20,680 Speaker 2: terms of returns the day after, the week after, the 139 00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 2: months after, and the year after, if you like. And 140 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:26,720 Speaker 2: if you look at the last two elections, so that 141 00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 2: Biden election, the day of the election was certain that 142 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,440 Speaker 2: he was the president, the market went up two point 143 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:36,240 Speaker 2: two percent, and the SMP five hundred wreas previously and 144 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:39,040 Speaker 2: under trumpet went up one point one percent. And the 145 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:42,640 Speaker 2: average between nineteen eighty four and now is actually a 146 00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:45,880 Speaker 2: decrease of about zero point five of a percent. So 147 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:49,240 Speaker 2: the SMP rallying today around two point six percent is 148 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:55,000 Speaker 2: higher than it's ever done in the last period from nineteen. 149 00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 1: Eighty well, so this is actually rare, and that's considering 150 00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:01,560 Speaker 1: that it was already the best pre election performance since 151 00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 1: like nineteen thirty six heading into this. So this all 152 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:07,960 Speaker 1: net is pretty incredible for equity. 153 00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:10,680 Speaker 2: Market three and the equity markets will continue to go 154 00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:14,000 Speaker 2: higher in my opinion. And if you look at the 155 00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 2: returns on the SMP five hundred in the year after 156 00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 2: an election, it's around sixteen and a half percent. Under Biden, 157 00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:25,040 Speaker 2: it was around twenty four percent. Trump around twenty four 158 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:30,120 Speaker 2: percent also, and also Obaman his last term it was 159 00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:33,080 Speaker 2: up around twenty six percent. So you know, if we 160 00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:36,439 Speaker 2: have an equity market that could rise by twenty to 161 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 2: twenty five percent within the year, that's pretty significant for 162 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 2: people who wish to invest inequities and significant for New 163 00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:47,520 Speaker 2: Zealanders who have qvserver funds, and a lot of these 164 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 2: server funds invest in these top tier companies in the US. 165 00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:54,320 Speaker 1: No such thing as an absolute short thing, though, Greg No, 166 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 1: if we consider the risks. It is proposed that Trump 167 00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:01,400 Speaker 1: would be more inflationary to the US economy through things 168 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 1: like direct tariffs on imported goods into the US. How 169 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 1: could slightly higher inflation if that occurs, if we get 170 00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:11,640 Speaker 1: more borrowing and a larger fiscal deficit in the US, 171 00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 1: how could that impact US company earnings? 172 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:17,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, certainly so in terms of in terms of the 173 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:22,200 Speaker 2: tariffs and the like. It's definitely something that the market 174 00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:25,760 Speaker 2: may may increase in. Moody's put out a report saying 175 00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 2: that under a Trump government, inflation could go from the 176 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:30,120 Speaker 2: two and a half percent to three and a half 177 00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:33,680 Speaker 2: percent by the end of twenty twenty five. Under House 178 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 2: would have maybe stayed the same or even belower. So 179 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:40,520 Speaker 2: it definitely is cause for worry in terms of inflation, 180 00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:44,600 Speaker 2: prices may go up, but one percent is not too 181 00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:47,679 Speaker 2: high in terms of you know, under the Biden administration, 182 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:51,080 Speaker 2: it was the third worst term in terms of inflation 183 00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:54,839 Speaker 2: and an average inflation rate for that whole term. It 184 00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:57,679 Speaker 2: was a third worst since the nineteen eighties and. 185 00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:00,839 Speaker 1: The third largest fiscal deficit on record, referred only to 186 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 1: twenty Queen twenty one, which recovered years, so absolutely excepit. 187 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:05,600 Speaker 2: What grees are the things that you mentioned in terms 188 00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:10,000 Speaker 2: of physical deficit, there's definitely cause for concern. If Trump 189 00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:15,080 Speaker 2: does doesn't increase or that reduces tax rates or keeps 190 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:18,160 Speaker 2: tax rates the same, then the income earned for the 191 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 2: from the federal government is less. So you know that 192 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:27,560 Speaker 2: both both parties are fiscally irresponsible. There's no doubt about that. 193 00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:33,000 Speaker 1: More inflation could actually be good for a higher fiscal deficit, 194 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:35,360 Speaker 1: because the US government could just inflate more of that 195 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:36,959 Speaker 1: dead away, couldn't they correct. 196 00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:41,960 Speaker 2: But also the biggest problem under the Biden administration, the 197 00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:45,840 Speaker 2: differential between inflation and wages and wage growth and inflation 198 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 2: growth or price growth if you like, was prices were 199 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:53,480 Speaker 2: three or four times higher than wage growth, and at 200 00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:56,560 Speaker 2: the end, wages were slightly ahead in terms of growth. 201 00:10:56,600 --> 00:11:01,160 Speaker 2: And so if under a Trump administration more jobs are created, 202 00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:06,400 Speaker 2: particularly in smaller companies because of tariffs and protectionism, then 203 00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:09,360 Speaker 2: you know, wage growth should be hopefully above the three 204 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:12,960 Speaker 2: and a half percent that that inflation is. So you know, 205 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:17,439 Speaker 2: the whole premise of the Trump trade and the Trump 206 00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:20,640 Speaker 2: election has really been the effect on the economy or 207 00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:25,360 Speaker 2: the Biden administration. And you know, after after COVID, most 208 00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:28,640 Speaker 2: most governments have been elected out, so you know, he 209 00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:36,280 Speaker 2: was there with fiscal easing or least physical policy to 210 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 2: to help create more jobs and keep the economy going. 211 00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:41,400 Speaker 2: And the same happened in New Zealand, and you know 212 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:45,280 Speaker 2: we're paying the cost now, but that also caused high inflation. 213 00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 1: We aren't quite seeing the inflation potential expectations on the 214 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 1: equities market, but it is playing out quite strongly on 215 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:54,160 Speaker 1: the bond market. Fine yields had been surging, they were 216 00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:58,600 Speaker 1: pretty much vertical on that immediate election result. That means, 217 00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:01,600 Speaker 1: with the inverse relationship, the bond prices are falling. What 218 00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:04,040 Speaker 1: does that mean for fixed income investors that are in 219 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:06,760 Speaker 1: bonds and US treasuries at the moment and could it 220 00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:11,280 Speaker 1: longer term signal actual better returns in US treasuries certainly. 221 00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:16,520 Speaker 2: So in terms of the ten year tenure end of 222 00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:19,720 Speaker 2: the curve is definitely a lot higher, but interest rates 223 00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:22,520 Speaker 2: coming down at the short end, particularly for drop again 224 00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:25,439 Speaker 2: by another twenty five basis points for the cash rate 225 00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:29,280 Speaker 2: this Friday. There's definitely a steepening of the curve between 226 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:33,400 Speaker 2: the short term rates and long term rates, and so 227 00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:37,080 Speaker 2: people will either move into shorter term products like the 228 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:39,679 Speaker 2: treasuries and the like, where the yields may go up 229 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:42,199 Speaker 2: because they're going to be borrowing more so therefore they 230 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:46,040 Speaker 2: have to offer more interest and more risk obviously, but 231 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:49,440 Speaker 2: also you know, people will move out of treasuries, long 232 00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:53,240 Speaker 2: longer term treasure bonds, in long term corporate bonds into 233 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:57,000 Speaker 2: equities because equity markets are likely to rally from here. 234 00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 1: But coin bitcoin, where does that go from here? All 235 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:02,960 Speaker 1: time high on election night. 236 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:08,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right, So I shares black rocks. It has 237 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:11,160 Speaker 2: the predominant ETF which started at the beginning of the year. 238 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:14,719 Speaker 2: That was up eight point eight percent overnight. And then 239 00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:17,680 Speaker 2: if you look at the individual Trump trade stocks that 240 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:21,080 Speaker 2: could benefit from from bitcoin changes, coin Base was up 241 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:25,600 Speaker 2: thirty two percent this morning and Marason Digital what nineteen percent? 242 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:30,320 Speaker 2: So significant increases in the in the prices of those 243 00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 2: related to bitcoin and cryptocurrency. 244 00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:35,520 Speaker 1: How do you see a Trump presidency actually changing the 245 00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:39,120 Speaker 1: game for bitcoin investors? Material? Is it? 246 00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:44,640 Speaker 2: Hopefully over time there'll be more regulation of bitcoin. That's 247 00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:48,840 Speaker 2: probably against Trump's thing in terms of regulation, But you know, 248 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:51,680 Speaker 2: people are investing in these sorts of products need certainty, 249 00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:55,400 Speaker 2: and the likes of an ETF on bitcoin like the 250 00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:59,320 Speaker 2: ib which is offered by Ice Shares and Black Crock 251 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:03,840 Speaker 2: provides a way or mechanism of investing in these markets 252 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:06,880 Speaker 2: without having to store the bitcoin or worry about your 253 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:10,040 Speaker 2: passwords and all that sort of thing. So move movement 254 00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:16,200 Speaker 2: towards some more certainty around the process of clearing and 255 00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 2: settlement and trading and security of the bitcoin will help. 256 00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:23,680 Speaker 2: And and you know, definitely the likes of the ETFs 257 00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:27,200 Speaker 2: helped with that, and that will that may long continue. 258 00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:29,080 Speaker 1: And now under this leadership it will be more help 259 00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 1: than hinder you think. 260 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 2: Create in district correct, Yes, and definitely he has been 261 00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:36,400 Speaker 2: a big proponent of bitcoin. 262 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 1: What do you think, greg, the lesson should be for 263 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:45,560 Speaker 1: investors on the prediction market versus the polls is the 264 00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:47,200 Speaker 1: lesson always follow the money. 265 00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:49,600 Speaker 2: Well it seems to be, doesn't it.
