1 00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:04,040 Speaker 1: Bryan Bridge nine, after four news talks, he'd be so investors, 2 00:00:04,080 --> 00:00:07,240 Speaker 1: you'd be forgiven for complaining about whiplash. After this morning's 3 00:00:07,360 --> 00:00:10,039 Speaker 1: huge U tune from Donald Trump, markets around the world 4 00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:13,760 Speaker 1: made huge jumps this after Trump announced a ninety day 5 00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:17,440 Speaker 1: freeze for all announced tariffs except for China. 6 00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:21,040 Speaker 2: Well, I thought that people were jumping a little bit 7 00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:22,119 Speaker 2: out of line. 8 00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:24,840 Speaker 1: They were getting yippie, you know, they were getting a 9 00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:29,000 Speaker 1: little bit yippy, a little bit afraid. Scott Shelley is 10 00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:30,680 Speaker 1: a US market analyst with me now. 11 00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:34,360 Speaker 2: Hi, Scott, thanks for having me on. 12 00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:38,480 Speaker 3: Looking forward to it. As you can imagine, pretty busy 13 00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:39,280 Speaker 3: day today. 14 00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:42,160 Speaker 2: Tell me what you think forced Trump's hand. 15 00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:49,479 Speaker 3: Well, I think I think the Treasury Secretary is kind 16 00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:52,159 Speaker 3: of taken the lead role on this. Scott Paston. I 17 00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:54,320 Speaker 3: don't know if you know Scott Paston, but he used 18 00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:56,480 Speaker 3: to work with George Soross and Stanley Drugon Miller with 19 00:00:56,520 --> 00:01:00,480 Speaker 3: the Quantum fun guys. He's very, very smart. He's a 20 00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:03,880 Speaker 3: fantastic markets guy. And when he saw that tenyor yields 21 00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:06,120 Speaker 3: fike this morning, like a lot of us, you know, 22 00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:07,600 Speaker 3: it was only a couple three days ago that that 23 00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:10,680 Speaker 3: tenyor yield here was around three eighty five and then 24 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:12,840 Speaker 3: spiked close to well. I think the HIE today was 25 00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:16,840 Speaker 3: four fifty one. And when he saw that, I think 26 00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:19,440 Speaker 3: then when he'd have yields spiking at the same time 27 00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:22,000 Speaker 3: a lot of volatility and equities, and a lot of 28 00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:24,959 Speaker 3: folatility to the downside of equities, he run the risk 29 00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:26,400 Speaker 3: of breaking something. So I think that there was a 30 00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:29,000 Speaker 3: little bit of pressure there. A couple of days ago, 31 00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:31,160 Speaker 3: Best in scott Best and our tergery. Second, they flew 32 00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 3: down to mar Lago from Washington and rode back in 33 00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:37,679 Speaker 3: Air Force one with Trump. I think he had his 34 00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:42,120 Speaker 3: ear for that one, and so I think there were 35 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 3: some there were some genuine moves on Trump's behalf that 36 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:47,880 Speaker 3: I think we're planned. I think it's fair to say 37 00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:50,040 Speaker 3: that when he put the ten percent to a Ofstan, 38 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,440 Speaker 3: but he had much higher rates on some other countries, 39 00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:56,200 Speaker 3: to have them stand in line to try to do 40 00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:58,280 Speaker 3: a deal with them while he was still tariffing them 41 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:01,920 Speaker 3: is not fair. So I think that that ninety day 42 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:05,400 Speaker 3: pauses because of the amount of deals that he's going 43 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:08,000 Speaker 3: to have to be cutting in the next ninety days 44 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:12,240 Speaker 3: from you know, the reports are seventy five countries want 45 00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 3: to want to cut a deal with them in some way, 46 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:17,240 Speaker 3: so it's going to be hard to get to all 47 00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:19,760 Speaker 3: those people in a short period of time, so they 48 00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:23,040 Speaker 3: wouldn't be hurt with tariff. So I think the ninety 49 00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:25,399 Speaker 3: day pauses so that he can get through the backlog 50 00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 3: of countries at least they say that they want to 51 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:32,240 Speaker 3: do a deal. And I also think that he was 52 00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:36,639 Speaker 3: pretty masterful and putting China in a corner, So all 53 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:38,720 Speaker 3: those things kind of played into it. You don't see 54 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:41,079 Speaker 3: a lot of Peter and Navarro, you don't see a 55 00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:44,799 Speaker 3: lot of Howard lutt next in the Commerce secretary. It's 56 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:46,680 Speaker 3: all Scott sat And I think he's doing a pretty 57 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 3: good job with the president. And over the last forty 58 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:52,480 Speaker 3: eight hours his stock is fined for sure. 59 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 1: Obviously the yields go up when the price goes down. 60 00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,640 Speaker 1: Normally when there's chaos in the markets, people flood to 61 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:01,160 Speaker 1: the treasuries, right. 62 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:02,920 Speaker 2: To the bonds. 63 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:05,600 Speaker 1: There's there's talk that because China owns about a third 64 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 1: of US government bonds, that they weren't buying and that 65 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:11,720 Speaker 1: that might have had some effect in terms of forcing 66 00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:12,359 Speaker 1: Trump's hand. 67 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 2: Do you see that buy that. 68 00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:19,399 Speaker 3: There was a lot of rumors going around. I mean, 69 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:22,840 Speaker 3: you know, hedge fund caught the wrong way, unwinding of 70 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:26,919 Speaker 3: the carry trade, China trying to punish Trump, whether they're 71 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:30,239 Speaker 3: selling end or not buying it could have been a 72 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:32,239 Speaker 3: number of things. But I also think that the yield 73 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 3: came in so quickly because there were so many people 74 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:38,800 Speaker 3: rushing to save havens that that's how the yield got 75 00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 3: to three eighty five in the first place. So we 76 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 3: only kind of went back to where we were trading 77 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:45,280 Speaker 3: any between you say, four fifteen and four thirty five, 78 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 3: although the high obviously it was four fifty. But I 79 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 3: think that bomb market is bigger than the stock market. 80 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 3: It's it's so it's gonna be hard to manipulate it 81 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 3: at all. I mean maybe maybe maybe in the short 82 00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:00,040 Speaker 3: rum a little bit, but again, it's bigger than the 83 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:02,840 Speaker 3: stock market, So the bond market's gonna be the bond market, 84 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:07,680 Speaker 3: regardless of what people want to abscribe to it. I 85 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 3: just don't think that there was anything the farious going 86 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:12,400 Speaker 3: on there. I just think it was a culmination. 87 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,840 Speaker 1: Of things Trump posted on truth social This is a 88 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:19,159 Speaker 1: great time to buy. Is that borderline inside of trading? 89 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 3: You know what they've been saying that for days though. 90 00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:27,880 Speaker 3: That's all you know that taking a look at it 91 00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:33,080 Speaker 3: in the snapshot of time of today, you might be 92 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 3: able to come up with something like that. No, they've 93 00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 3: been saying that for days. I mean, there's a lot 94 00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 3: of folks that have been on the tape since last 95 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:44,480 Speaker 3: Thursday saying this is an amazing, once for a lifetime opportunity. 96 00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:47,719 Speaker 3: So you could you know, it just so happens that 97 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:49,599 Speaker 3: it was it was today that the market rally, and 98 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:51,680 Speaker 3: it looks like he might have known something. But again, 99 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 3: they've been saying that every day. 100 00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 2: What do you think happens from here? 101 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,360 Speaker 1: I mean, ninety days to cut deals with seventy five 102 00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:01,160 Speaker 1: countries sounds quite ambitious. So does he just keep extending 103 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 1: this stay? 104 00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:06,120 Speaker 3: I think it depends on how those deals go. But 105 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:08,360 Speaker 3: I think that, you know, as the news of these 106 00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 3: settlements come out, you'll get more and more comfortable with 107 00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 3: the market. I mean, we're not I don't think we're 108 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:15,480 Speaker 3: gonna have to go back to what we just went 109 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:17,760 Speaker 3: through in ninety days time. If that's where you're getting at. 110 00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:19,719 Speaker 3: And at the same time, it's going to be interesting 111 00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:22,880 Speaker 3: to see how China handles the position that they put 112 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:27,880 Speaker 3: themselves into, so you know, he's Trump generally has some 113 00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 3: decent support. I think there was a risk there it 114 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 3: went on. As long as people were worried it was 115 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 3: going to go on, he was going to start to 116 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 3: lose his own coalition, his own Republican support. That might 117 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:41,600 Speaker 3: have been happening. There was talks of some of some 118 00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:45,280 Speaker 3: cracks in that coalition over the last few days in 119 00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 3: the weekend, but I think I think the way things 120 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 3: sit today that you know, if it was all planned 121 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 3: and this is what he wanted, he did a pretty 122 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:56,560 Speaker 3: good job. And I think and I think that it's 123 00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:58,599 Speaker 3: also got to be given a little bit of credit 124 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 3: to Scott Best and are actually a lot of credit 125 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 3: to Scott Betland. I think he was also a big 126 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 3: part of this. And I think that tenure yield, combined 127 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 3: with the stock market, combined with the seventy five countries, 128 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:10,760 Speaker 3: combined with a lot of the other things that I've 129 00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 3: been playing into everything over the last four or five days, 130 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 3: this was a pretty good outcome. 131 00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:17,600 Speaker 1: All right, Scott will leave it there, Thanks very much 132 00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:21,360 Speaker 1: for that analysis.
