1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,920 Speaker 1: Shane Soley Harbor Asset Managements with US Shane good evening. Okay, Ryan, 2 00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:07,360 Speaker 1: what is this this meeting between Trump and Zolenski and 3 00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:10,080 Speaker 1: the Pesky jd vance? Butting in what does it mean 4 00:00:10,119 --> 00:00:14,040 Speaker 1: for capital markets? How capital markets dealing with the bombs 5 00:00:14,040 --> 00:00:14,960 Speaker 1: and the surprises. 6 00:00:16,040 --> 00:00:18,639 Speaker 2: It was pretty fiery, wasn't it. Well, Look, actually markets 7 00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:22,000 Speaker 2: in the US were rattled initially. We saw the US 8 00:00:22,079 --> 00:00:24,680 Speaker 2: dollar actually go up. That's what happens when people get 9 00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:28,520 Speaker 2: worried about risks, they go into a rather protected place 10 00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:30,880 Speaker 2: to be. And the shoemaker actually initially went down, but 11 00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:32,760 Speaker 2: then it had a really good rally to the end 12 00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:35,120 Speaker 2: of the period. So actually it being of it all 13 00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:38,519 Speaker 2: US dollar up, US shares up, I guess that this 14 00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:40,960 Speaker 2: has become a little bit wary about White House announcements. 15 00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:43,360 Speaker 2: You know, we also had mister Trump talking about his 16 00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:46,400 Speaker 2: new cryptocurrency reserve that put a little bit of a 17 00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:49,400 Speaker 2: match under the bitcoin price, which has gone up eight 18 00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:52,280 Speaker 2: en percent. Sins you talked about that. So yeah, we're 19 00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:54,360 Speaker 2: nothing in this part of the world today. We haven't 20 00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:56,520 Speaker 2: really reacted to this part of the world. But people 21 00:00:56,560 --> 00:00:58,840 Speaker 2: are going to watch really closer this week about whether 22 00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:02,720 Speaker 2: there's more discussion about Canada Mexico tariffs where they're going 23 00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:06,400 Speaker 2: to be delayed until April, and whether the Chinese tariffs. 24 00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:10,119 Speaker 1: Go up yeah, or even the amount changed right because 25 00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:12,560 Speaker 1: he said twenty five percent, and then there was an 26 00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:14,840 Speaker 1: official from the White House coming out today saying, I 27 00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:18,840 Speaker 1: actually he may change that from twenty five A lot 28 00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:20,720 Speaker 1: to watch, A lot to watch. What was behind the 29 00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:23,400 Speaker 1: Warehouse Group their sheer price down seven percent today? What 30 00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:23,920 Speaker 1: was there? 31 00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:27,559 Speaker 2: We saw a pretty cautious update from the company. These 32 00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:29,800 Speaker 2: tough trading conditions they've continued, and a lot of it 33 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:33,199 Speaker 2: it's about promotional activity. So basically the company is having 34 00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:36,840 Speaker 2: to cut prices and really stimulate sales to try and 35 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:40,360 Speaker 2: get their numbers up. Unfortunately, it's not quite working their way. 36 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:43,760 Speaker 2: Group salers are down for this first half of twenty five, 37 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:47,440 Speaker 2: not as much as people have been expecting, and they're 38 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:49,560 Speaker 2: actually talking about sales on it. But it's all about Hey, 39 00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:52,560 Speaker 2: they've had to cut their prices. They're getting their margins 40 00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:57,080 Speaker 2: back to where they were perhaps pre COVID more normal levels. Unfortunately, 41 00:01:57,160 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 2: that means the next half is looking pretty soft for 42 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 2: the Warehouse. In fact, their numbers are going to look 43 00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:07,320 Speaker 2: quite a lot lower than whether the capital market expected. 44 00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:09,880 Speaker 2: As a result, we've seen this the chair price come 45 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:12,600 Speaker 2: off quite quite soundy today. 46 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:15,080 Speaker 1: In contrast to that we've had Pacific Edge. The price 47 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:17,640 Speaker 1: is a strong recovery over the last couple of days 48 00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:19,040 Speaker 1: on some positive news. 49 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:23,360 Speaker 2: Yeah. Look, the American Neurology Eurology Association actually amended their 50 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 2: guidelines to say that Pacific Edge is sex bladder triochy test. 51 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:31,360 Speaker 2: This is for discovering whether you unfortunately have bladder cancer 52 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:34,119 Speaker 2: or otherwise. They said, look, actually this is great. We're 53 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:37,400 Speaker 2: going to put it in our standard of care. And 54 00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:41,160 Speaker 2: as a result, this may see Pacific Edge go back 55 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:45,240 Speaker 2: to the US centers for Medicare Medicaid. It's the major 56 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:49,720 Speaker 2: insurance provider from the government. Recently they said, look, we're 57 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:51,920 Speaker 2: not going to provide insurance, We're not going to cover 58 00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 2: the costs of the test anymore, and so the Pacificage 59 00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:57,520 Speaker 2: share price fell. This actually puts them back in the 60 00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:00,200 Speaker 2: game in terms of potentially getting that funding back. So 61 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 2: the ship rice has gone up one hundred and thirty 62 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 2: percent in the last few days to fourteen dollars or sorry, 63 00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 2: fifteen cents I should say today. So yeah, big, big 64 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 2: pop there on that data very quickly. 65 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:14,240 Speaker 1: The New Zealand sheer market generally was down three percent 66 00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:17,480 Speaker 1: last month. Why. I mean, obviously Spark hasn't helped us 67 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 1: to the last really while. But what's behind that is 68 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 1: that just a general first half reporting season and being 69 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:23,640 Speaker 1: a bit gloomy. 70 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I think there's a combined thing as you right, Ryan, 71 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 2: there's a global work to any in this trader, and 72 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:31,639 Speaker 2: certainly we've just talked about disappointing earnings results that have 73 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 2: fed through the Ernie's downgrades for this current financial year. 74 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 2: And also we had quite a large capital raising both 75 00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:41,080 Speaker 2: Ryme and this billion dollar rays. We needed to sell 76 00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:44,000 Speaker 2: things to fund that. But it wasn't all gloomy. There 77 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 2: were green shoots coming through in a few results. Lower 78 00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 2: government bond you was helpful for evaluations, and we might 79 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,200 Speaker 2: look back and say some of these liquidity events around 80 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 2: Ryman and even the Misco Global Next changes for contact 81 00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 2: creating some great opportunities for long term investors. But yeah, 82 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 2: we've hopefully seen the base, Ryan. Is probably the best 83 00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:05,840 Speaker 2: thing we'd say is we've seen these green shoots more regularly. 84 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 1: Shane, Thanks for your time.
