1
00:00:11,080 --> 00:00:13,880
Speaker 1: This is America's Trucking Network with Kevin Gordon.

2
00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:16,520
Speaker 2: Welcome more.

3
00:00:16,880 --> 00:00:20,200
Speaker 3: Thanks for tuning in on this Tuesday morning. Well, we

4
00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:24,040
Speaker 3: got the initial jobless claims last week. Now the Bureau

5
00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:26,480
Speaker 3: of Labor Statistics has been shut down due to the

6
00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:31,240
Speaker 3: government's shutdown, the Schumer shutdown, and yet Goldman Sachs and

7
00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:35,279
Speaker 3: JP Morgan were able to extract the same information that

8
00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:38,800
Speaker 3: the Bureau of Labor Statistics looks at because this is

9
00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:41,800
Speaker 3: all posted on the website, and they were able to

10
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:45,559
Speaker 3: extract this information, which then leads me, as I've been

11
00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:49,200
Speaker 3: mentioning over the last couple of weeks, is why are

12
00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:53,040
Speaker 3: we dependent on these government agencies to do that and

13
00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:57,160
Speaker 3: put these numbers together when it's readily available and the

14
00:00:57,320 --> 00:01:01,920
Speaker 3: people that use that information wait on the Bureau of

15
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:05,880
Speaker 3: Labor Statistics or a government agency to collect that data

16
00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:09,800
Speaker 3: for them, when if they're in that business, they're probably

17
00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:14,479
Speaker 3: collecting that information anyway as a heads up to their clients.

18
00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:18,720
Speaker 3: So isn't this a bit of a redundancy And wouldn't

19
00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:22,240
Speaker 3: it be more wouldn't it be more? It would be

20
00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:26,360
Speaker 3: more independent if you've got two different competing firms that

21
00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:30,760
Speaker 3: are out there getting that statistics and then presenting it.

22
00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:33,720
Speaker 3: One wouldn't be able to favor it in one direction

23
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:36,640
Speaker 3: or another, or fudge the numbers in order to boost

24
00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:42,480
Speaker 3: their sales or encourage more clients to invest in stocks,

25
00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:44,560
Speaker 3: because that would come back and bite them in the

26
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:47,800
Speaker 3: butt later on. Anyway, But think of the amount of people,

27
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 3: the number of people involved Bureau of Labor Statistics, that

28
00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:54,680
Speaker 3: are doing what the private sector can do. Going back

29
00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:59,280
Speaker 3: to Abraham Lincoln, he talked about that we hire the

30
00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 3: government to do for us collectively what we can't do individually.

31
00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:07,960
Speaker 3: In other words, I can't afford to have a security

32
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:11,560
Speaker 3: officer outside of my house every day. Our neighborhood can't

33
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:15,639
Speaker 3: afford that. So what we do, as far as taxpayers

34
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:19,440
Speaker 3: are concerned our city, we hire police department. I can't

35
00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:24,079
Speaker 3: hire firemen to stand out there also, so we hire

36
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 3: fire departments, we hire road departments, all these things that

37
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:33,040
Speaker 3: we individually can't do. And so when the government, like

38
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:35,639
Speaker 3: the Bureau of Labor Statistics and some of these reporting

39
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:38,840
Speaker 3: agencies go into something that can be done in the

40
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:42,400
Speaker 3: private sector, why are we letting that happen and why

41
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:48,040
Speaker 3: are we building breau this bureaucratic nightmare in terms of

42
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:51,320
Speaker 3: all these individuals. So again that's just my two cents

43
00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:54,079
Speaker 3: worth that maybe that's one of the areas that can

44
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:57,600
Speaker 3: be cut if this information is available. And what it

45
00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:00,560
Speaker 3: is is that it talks about in here. Now, now

46
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:04,639
Speaker 3: let's we get into it. But basically, the states report

47
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:08,160
Speaker 3: their numbers to the federal government on a weekly basis,

48
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 3: and sometimes that information is delayed, and that's why you

49
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:16,359
Speaker 3: have seasonally adjusted or adjusted later on. Number of Americans

50
00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:20,160
Speaker 3: filing for applications for jobless benefits fell last week, economists

51
00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 3: at JP Morgan and Goldman Sachs estimated on Thursday, but

52
00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 3: lackluster hiring has left many on unemployment roles. Initial claims

53
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 3: for state unemployment benefits dropped dropped to a seasonally adjusted

54
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 3: two hundred and seventeen thousand for the week ending October

55
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:43,720
Speaker 3: eleventh from two hundred and thirty five thousand the previous week. Now,

56
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:47,000
Speaker 3: sky was following a couple of weeks ago with the

57
00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:51,000
Speaker 3: jobless claims approaching two hundred and fifty thousand. We found

58
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:56,000
Speaker 3: out that that was somewhat not somewhat, but inflated by

59
00:03:56,040 --> 00:04:00,760
Speaker 3: about thirteen thousand thereabouts because of some fraudulent claims that

60
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 3: were made in Texas, and this was a group of

61
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:08,640
Speaker 3: people or a group an organization trying to do fraudulent claims. Now,

62
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:11,760
Speaker 3: the stories you heard that here on America's struck A network,

63
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:14,360
Speaker 3: but you didn't hear that in the Spoon feder regurgitators

64
00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 3: in the mainstream media. They just said, oh, it was

65
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:20,200
Speaker 3: adjusted from the prior week. But again, we correct the

66
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:23,920
Speaker 3: information here and give you the straight information without all

67
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:26,680
Speaker 3: the fluff, without all the because again, if it bleeds,

68
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 3: it leads as far as the Spoon federalgurgitators in the

69
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:32,600
Speaker 3: mainstream media. But that information is out there and that's

70
00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:35,120
Speaker 3: in people's mind, and what I want to do is

71
00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:38,280
Speaker 3: correct that if it's wrong. So again, when we look

72
00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:41,560
Speaker 3: at these numbers, down down to two hundred and seventeen

73
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:44,800
Speaker 3: thousand from two hundred and thirty five thousand the prior week,

74
00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:47,880
Speaker 3: US government shutdown now in its third week, due to

75
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:54,080
Speaker 3: political standoff between Republicans and Democrats, basically by Democrats. Now,

76
00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 3: let's let me throw this out there. There was a

77
00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:04,040
Speaker 3: continuing resolution, a clean continuing resolution, no additions from the Democrats,

78
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:06,840
Speaker 3: no additions from the Republicans.

79
00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 4: It was okay, what we're going to do is vote.

80
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:15,000
Speaker 3: To keep the government open at the same rate, at

81
00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:19,480
Speaker 3: the same budget, at the same everything as before. None

82
00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:22,839
Speaker 3: of our stuff that we won as Republicans or Conservatives

83
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:26,320
Speaker 3: are added on this or tacked onto this. Nothing from

84
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:30,479
Speaker 3: the Democrats. It's just a what they call a clean bill,

85
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:35,840
Speaker 3: clean resolution. And yet the Democrats have voted against that

86
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:39,440
Speaker 3: what eleven times now and refuse to open the government

87
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:44,839
Speaker 3: because they want to add a one point five trillion

88
00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:51,240
Speaker 3: dollars in subsidies and government assistance to illegal aliens.

89
00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:53,400
Speaker 4: That's the bottom line there.

90
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:58,159
Speaker 3: So a clean continuing resolution has been voted down eleven

91
00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:02,239
Speaker 3: times by the Democrats. So because they're not getting their way,

92
00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:06,880
Speaker 3: because they're not getting the additions that they want, they're

93
00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:09,159
Speaker 3: going to shut the government down as opposed to just

94
00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:12,120
Speaker 3: leaving things as they are to continue on and on.

95
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:16,479
Speaker 3: Now again, go back and listen to what they said

96
00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:19,520
Speaker 3: a couple of years ago, or even six months ago.

97
00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:22,120
Speaker 3: I think it was in March that they said, to

98
00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:27,320
Speaker 3: shut the government down is ridiculous. So each side needs

99
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:30,080
Speaker 3: to pull out all the freebies that are holding this up.

100
00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 3: And we just have this clean bill, and everybody was

101
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:35,080
Speaker 3: on board with that, and all the Democrats or the

102
00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:38,119
Speaker 3: Democrats voted for now all of a sudden six months

103
00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:40,239
Speaker 3: later when Donald Trump's in the White House.

104
00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:42,600
Speaker 4: Hm, we don't get that interesting.

105
00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:47,839
Speaker 3: States, however, continue to collect the claims data and submit

106
00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:52,360
Speaker 3: it to the Labor Department's database, which remains accessible, so

107
00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:56,040
Speaker 3: that information is added in there. Economists have been using

108
00:06:56,080 --> 00:07:00,680
Speaker 3: the unadjusted claims data to make estimates using season adjustment

109
00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:04,760
Speaker 3: factors that the government published earlier this year. Claims data

110
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:10,920
Speaker 3: was unavailable for Arizona, Massachusetts, Nevada, and Tennessee. Now question here,

111
00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:14,880
Speaker 3: if this information is so relevant and so important to

112
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:18,000
Speaker 3: the decision making as far as the federal reserve on

113
00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:22,000
Speaker 3: interest rates, as far as how the job market is doing,

114
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:26,080
Speaker 3: if businesses are relying on this information as to what

115
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:28,640
Speaker 3: the unemployment rate is and just a gauge of how

116
00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:31,240
Speaker 3: well the economy is doing. Because if they're out there

117
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:35,560
Speaker 3: selling stuff and there's large unemployment, then they can expect

118
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:37,640
Speaker 3: that their business is going to take a downturn because

119
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:39,280
Speaker 3: people are out of work they don't have money to

120
00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:42,600
Speaker 3: pay for it. So with that in mind, why are

121
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 3: these states late Arizona, Massachusetts, Nevada, and Tennessee. According to this,

122
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:51,760
Speaker 3: our estimates assumed the initial claims for Tennessee, Massachusetts, and Arizona, Nevada,

123
00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:56,080
Speaker 3: which didn't appear in today's DOL data. We're in line

124
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 3: with the latest published numbers, according to Goldman. Sachs said

125
00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:02,160
Speaker 3: in a note, the range between two hundred and eleven

126
00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:04,680
Speaker 3: thousand and two hundred and twenty five thousand, using the

127
00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:07,520
Speaker 3: lowest and highest levels for claims in these states during

128
00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:11,720
Speaker 3: the year. Now, again, if this is important, why aren't

129
00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:16,000
Speaker 3: the states getting this in on time and timely information

130
00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:19,320
Speaker 3: to get this to the necessary people so that they

131
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 3: can make intelligent decisions. Again, this is one of those

132
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:25,600
Speaker 3: things that I talk about that if there's no if

133
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:28,920
Speaker 3: there's no time frame on this, if there's no penalty

134
00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:31,480
Speaker 3: for not doing this, and you know, hey, you know

135
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:34,080
Speaker 3: I don't get to it today. You know, Hey, I

136
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:36,720
Speaker 3: get off work at four o'clock and it's you know,

137
00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:37,560
Speaker 3: it's two o'clock.

138
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:39,559
Speaker 4: Now, I really don't want to start.

139
00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:41,800
Speaker 3: Anything new because you know, then I'll have to maybe

140
00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:44,200
Speaker 3: I'll have to work five minutes over time, and you

141
00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:46,439
Speaker 3: know I can't do that as a state.

142
00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:48,439
Speaker 4: Office worker or whatever. It's nuts.

143
00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:52,560
Speaker 3: Abbiel Reinhardt and economists at JP Morgan. The latest job

144
00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:56,960
Speaker 3: was claims look quite decent and suggests layoffs remin low.

145
00:08:57,679 --> 00:09:00,880
Speaker 4: With movement in the and with no movement in the

146
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:01,880
Speaker 4: unemployment rate.

147
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:06,240
Speaker 3: Claims data have become key for Federal Reserve officials trying

148
00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:09,440
Speaker 3: to assess the health of the labor market ahead of

149
00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:14,000
Speaker 3: the October twenty eighth twenty ninth policy meeting. Now they

150
00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:17,200
Speaker 3: get in here into some of the government or some

151
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:20,000
Speaker 3: hiring and how some of these numbers are kind of

152
00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:22,360
Speaker 3: turned around or analyzed and so on.

153
00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:23,679
Speaker 4: We'll pick this up coming up.

154
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:28,640
Speaker 3: I'm Kevin Gordon, America's Trucking Network, seven hundred WLW.

155
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:30,559
Speaker 4: I need this is.

156
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:35,040
Speaker 1: The breathing reward on America's Druging Network on seven hundred WLW.

157
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:39,080

Speaker 4: I'm Kevin Gordon.

227
00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:15,400
Speaker 3: America struck a network seven hundred WLW. I'm talking about

228
00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:19,959
Speaker 3: US weekly Jobless Claims data, and it declined. It went

229
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:23,120
Speaker 3: from two hundred and thirty five thousand in the prior

230
00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:26,080
Speaker 3: week down to two hundred and seventeen thousand, So fewer

231
00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:28,520
Speaker 3: people are being laid off on a weekly basis, which

232
00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:31,079
Speaker 3: is in line now just since the beginning of the year,

233
00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:35,040
Speaker 3: over the last several about two three years now, the range,

234
00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:38,640
Speaker 3: and unemployment has gone from two hundred thousand to up

235
00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:41,240
Speaker 3: to two hundred and fifty thousand, So at two hundred

236
00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:43,600
Speaker 3: and seventeen thousand, we're at the lower end of that

237
00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:48,520
Speaker 3: particular spectrum, which is good. Now, one of the paragraphs

238
00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:52,440
Speaker 3: in here, both layoffs and hiring remained slow or remain

239
00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:55,600
Speaker 3: low rather, which is the same thing we've been hearing

240
00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:59,679
Speaker 3: now for several weeks and even months. FED Chairman Lion

241
00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:02,400
Speaker 3: Jerry Powell. That's not part of the article. That's my

242
00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:05,880
Speaker 3: little editorial there. But anyway, FED Chairman Lyon Jerry Powell

243
00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:09,600
Speaker 3: said this week, available evidence suggests that both layoffs and

244
00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:14,880
Speaker 3: hiring remain low, captain obvious, and that both households perceptions

245
00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:20,160
Speaker 3: of job availability and firms perceptions of hiring difficulty continue

246
00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:25,200
Speaker 3: their downward trajectories. Catch the keyword in their perceptions. That's

247
00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:29,880
Speaker 3: what people are assuming that the job market is slow. Now,

248
00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:34,800
Speaker 3: why is it slow? What could possibly handle? What could

249
00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:40,040
Speaker 3: possibly cause their perceptions? Could it be that down? Talking

250
00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:44,760
Speaker 3: of the economy since January? I mean, this is some

251
00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:46,840
Speaker 3: of the crap that we have heard from the spoon

252
00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:52,440
Speaker 3: fed regurgitators in the mainstream media over the last ten

253
00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:56,200
Speaker 3: and a half months, ten months thereabouts, well, actually yesterday

254
00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:59,720
Speaker 3: being the twentieth of October, and the inauguration in January

255
00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:03,720
Speaker 3: the tw so we're into the nine excuse me, the

256
00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:08,520
Speaker 3: ninth month of the second Trump term. So from day one,

257
00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:11,680
Speaker 3: there's been this negative talk as far as the economy

258
00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:16,840
Speaker 3: is concerned, and in my opinion, trying to manufacture a

259
00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:20,880
Speaker 3: recession because when the talk was about terrorists.

260
00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:22,680
Speaker 4: Remember you may remember at the beginning of the year when.

261
00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:25,080
Speaker 3: They were talking about tariffs, that oh, this is this

262
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:27,800
Speaker 3: is going to spiral out of control. We're going to

263
00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:31,560
Speaker 3: go into a recession, we are going to have rampant

264
00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:35,400
Speaker 3: out of control inflation, and on and on and on,

265
00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:39,160
Speaker 3: none of which has happened, and everybody is admitting that

266
00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:42,600
Speaker 3: it hasn't happened, and we're seeing a little bit of

267
00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:45,680
Speaker 3: trickle But when you get into the nuts and bolts

268
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:48,560
Speaker 3: of what's causing some of the inflation, it has to

269
00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:52,480
Speaker 3: do with salary and wage increases from union contracts and

270
00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:56,400
Speaker 3: other contracts that have been established over the last well

271
00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:59,680
Speaker 3: two and a half years, and yet nobody digs into

272
00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:02,360
Speaker 3: that information and talks about it other than here on

273
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:05,760
Speaker 3: America's struck a network. So when you start seeing this

274
00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:09,920
Speaker 3: inflation going in, where is the inflation coming from.

275
00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:10,960
Speaker 4: A couple of weeks.

276
00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:14,560
Speaker 3: Ago, Lion Jerry Powell talked about the service sector. Well,

277
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:18,880
Speaker 3: the service sector isn't vulnerable to tariffs. The service sector

278
00:16:18,920 --> 00:16:22,640
Speaker 3: is vulnerable to wages. It is why it's called the

279
00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:27,080
Speaker 3: service sector. And so if the wages go up in

280
00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:31,120
Speaker 3: the service sector, then that's going that's going to cause

281
00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:35,480
Speaker 3: the inflation in that sector. And digging into those numbers,

282
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:39,760
Speaker 3: what we saw was that the number the numbers were

283
00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:46,080
Speaker 3: high as far as the fees charged by stockbrokers because

284
00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:49,640
Speaker 3: more people are going into the market because the market

285
00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:53,640
Speaker 3: is not just the highest for the week, the highest

286
00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:56,640
Speaker 3: for the month, the highest for the year, it is

287
00:16:56,720 --> 00:17:03,800
Speaker 3: the highest of all time historically. So people are jumping in,

288
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:07,080
Speaker 3: more people are jumping in. The fees aren't going up,

289
00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:10,600
Speaker 3: it's the volume of people in there that are going up,

290
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:13,439
Speaker 3: and therefore those prices are going up. And when you

291
00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:18,119
Speaker 3: look at the number of management fees this year versus

292
00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:22,080
Speaker 3: last year, they are up exponentially. But the reason for

293
00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:27,000
Speaker 3: that is because of the good economy, the stock market

294
00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:30,800
Speaker 3: going to record highs and people jumping in and saying Hey,

295
00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:34,040
Speaker 3: I want to get on this bandwagon. So lion Jerry

296
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:38,600
Speaker 3: powisit here talking about the perceptions of households. Well, you're

297
00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:42,840
Speaker 3: the Fed. You can analyze the information you got twenty

298
00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:47,880
Speaker 3: three thousand employees. I'm sure there's some economists, accountants, and

299
00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:50,480
Speaker 3: some people in there that can read a balance sheet.

300
00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:53,119
Speaker 3: Maybe they can explain some of this stuff to you.

301
00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:57,960
Speaker 3: Unemployment claims have remained within the pre government shutdown range.

302
00:17:58,040 --> 00:18:00,960
Speaker 3: They have not shown large spikes to bite the shutdown

303
00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:05,000
Speaker 3: pushing thousands of federal contractors out of work. The reason

304
00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:09,120
Speaker 3: for that which they just throw that in there. Federal workers,

305
00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:12,199
Speaker 3: hundreds of thousands of whom have been furloughed, file for

306
00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:15,000
Speaker 3: claims under a separate program.

307
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:18,160
Speaker 4: So federal workers have a separate.

308
00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:22,760
Speaker 3: Program, just like our legislators have a separate program for

309
00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:26,800
Speaker 3: their healthcare. They're not part of Obamacare. They have their

310
00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:31,800
Speaker 3: own hybrid and a very nice, comfortable health care plan.

311
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:35,720
Speaker 3: So if Obamacare was so great, why aren't they on?

312
00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:40,240
Speaker 4: That makes you wonder huh oh? And by the way, all.

313
00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:42,879
Speaker 3: Some of these freebies and stuff that go on the

314
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:47,040
Speaker 3: rules and things that apply to us don't apply to them.

315
00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:48,400
Speaker 4: Isn't that amazing.

316
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:52,720
Speaker 3: Oh, by the way, they are considered essential employees even

317
00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:55,920
Speaker 3: though they're not there, and I would question as to

318
00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:59,080
Speaker 3: whether or not they're considered an essential employee. They're still

319
00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:04,000
Speaker 3: getting a paycheck, So they're getting a paycheck, and they

320
00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:07,159
Speaker 3: voted them. They voted that the government shut down, so

321
00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:10,840
Speaker 3: why are they getting paid. See that's some of these

322
00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:14,199
Speaker 3: things that just really honked me off. Federal workers hunters,

323
00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:17,520
Speaker 3: of which they are under a separate program, The labor

324
00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:20,960
Speaker 3: market remains stuck in a no hire, no fire estate,

325
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:24,719
Speaker 3: economists say. According to Central Banks Beige Book now that

326
00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:27,480
Speaker 3: came out last week. May recall we've talked about the

327
00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:31,640
Speaker 3: Beige Book. This is a periodic snapshot, if you will,

328
00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:35,400
Speaker 3: of the economy that is published about eight times about

329
00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:37,840
Speaker 3: every what do they say everything they say in here

330
00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:41,639
Speaker 3: somewhere that it's published. Well, we'll get to it. But

331
00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:45,400
Speaker 3: it's published about eight times a year, and that's right

332
00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:48,080
Speaker 3: before one of the Federal Reserve meetings. We've got a

333
00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:50,199
Speaker 3: meeting coming up the end of this month of the

334
00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:52,800
Speaker 3: twenty eighth through the twenty ninth, I believe. And so

335
00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:55,959
Speaker 3: this Beige Book, which is an economic snapshot of all

336
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:58,840
Speaker 3: the different twelve districts talks about, well, this is what's

337
00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:01,560
Speaker 3: going on in our neck of the woods, here's what's

338
00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:03,919
Speaker 3: going on in this district, here's what's going on as

339
00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:07,520
Speaker 3: far as manufacturing, retail and all this, which, again, the

340
00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:11,119
Speaker 3: Federal Reserve collects this data and they've got this information

341
00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:14,880
Speaker 3: available for them to make their policy decisions during their

342
00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:18,720
Speaker 3: monthly their meetings when they meet to determine interest rate.

343
00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:23,719
Speaker 3: So if they are capable of accumulating this information and

344
00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:27,480
Speaker 3: putting it out there and assessing the economy, why is

345
00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:30,760
Speaker 3: the Bureau of Labor, Statistics, Commerce Department all this sort

346
00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:34,600
Speaker 3: of stuff doing this redundancy as well? Again, shouldn't this

347
00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:38,639
Speaker 3: be formed out And oh, if the Federal Reserve is

348
00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:43,080
Speaker 3: supposed to be this independent organization, well then wouldn't you

349
00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:46,040
Speaker 3: think that information coming out of them would be unbiased.

350
00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:50,080
Speaker 3: Apparently somebody doesn't think so, because these other government agencies

351
00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:52,919
Speaker 3: are still accumulating that data. Maybe it's a checks in

352
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:56,240
Speaker 3: balance type of situation, making sure that one agency is

353
00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:58,040
Speaker 3: a watchdog in the other.

354
00:20:58,119 --> 00:20:58,639
Speaker 4: I don't know.

355
00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:02,280
Speaker 3: Bank of Americans survey on Thursday found signs of a

356
00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:06,000
Speaker 3: slow down in the small business labor market. Its alternative

357
00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:09,680
Speaker 3: hiring indicator based on Bank of America's small business payment

358
00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:14,119
Speaker 3: data decrease in September. It also noted business applications with

359
00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:18,720
Speaker 3: planned wages, viewed as a signal of job creation, have

360
00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:23,919
Speaker 3: dropped below pre pandemic norms, now pre pandemic norms. If

361
00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:26,720
Speaker 3: you go back to the beginning, right before the pandemic,

362
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:30,200
Speaker 3: the economy was on a roll. We were chugging out

363
00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:35,360
Speaker 3: four point one four point five percent GDP.

364
00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:38,880
Speaker 4: The lower the.

365
00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:42,720
Speaker 3: Unemployment rate was low round four point one four percent thereabouts,

366
00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:49,880
Speaker 3: lowest unemployment rate or low lowest unemployment rate among Blacks, Hispanics, teenagers.

367
00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:54,000
Speaker 3: Everything across the board was humming along at historic highs.

368
00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:58,960
Speaker 3: So if this is below pre pandemic levels, well, pre

369
00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:02,159
Speaker 3: pandemic levels pretty darn high. The number of people receiving

370
00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:06,119
Speaker 3: unemployment benefits after the initial week aid proxy for hiring

371
00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:10,560
Speaker 3: was unchanged. He seasonally adjusted one million to a nine

372
00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:14,840
Speaker 3: hundred and twenty seven thousand, So again low hiring, low firing,

373
00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:19,359
Speaker 3: and the job market is steady and firm at not

374
00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:24,240
Speaker 3: major layoffs, not major increases, so all in all, not

375
00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:28,160
Speaker 3: too bad. Coming up, We've got some information on some

376
00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:33,160

440
00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:27,000
Speaker 16: when because of the injury, I couldn't keep up with

441

00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:33,040
Speaker 3: FMCSA revoked devices list due to the company's failure to

488
00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:37,720

Speaker 4: The latest models. The removals.

494
00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:55,560

Speaker 3: E l D and their uh the their name. The

508
00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:45,200

Speaker 3: l D one.

512
00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:56,880
Speaker 4: Now, major carriers have.

513
00:30:56,960 --> 00:31:01,320
Speaker 3: Up to sixty days to replace the revoked ELD with

514
00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:08,000
Speaker 3: compliance with a complaint one which I'm sorry, let me

515
00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:11,640
Speaker 3: back up here. Motor carriers have up to sixty days

516
00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:18,520
Speaker 3: to replace the revoked ELD with a compliant one looks

517
00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:22,320
Speaker 3: like a complaint the way they rote it here. FMCSA

518
00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:25,880
Speaker 3: will send an industry wide email to inform motor carriers

519
00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:29,480
Speaker 3: now they listen here what you need to do. You

520
00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:33,040
Speaker 3: need to discontinue using the revoked ELD and then revert

521
00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:37,320
Speaker 3: to paper logs or logging software to record required hours

522
00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:42,640
Speaker 3: of service data. Replace the ELD within the complementing the

523
00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:49,360
Speaker 3: complement got compliant ELD with a registered device now prior

524
00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:53,720
Speaker 3: to December sixteenth. The deadline for this is December sixteenth.

525
00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:58,320
Speaker 3: Prior to December sixteenth, safety officials are encouraged by FMCSA

526
00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:02,360
Speaker 3: not to site drive is using the revoked DLD no

527
00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:06,120
Speaker 3: record of duty status which is another violation, or a

528
00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:10,600
Speaker 3: failure to use a registered ELD. Instead, safety officials should

529
00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:15,040
Speaker 3: request the driver's paper logs, logging software or use the

530
00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:20,400
Speaker 3: ld ELD display on a backup method. Then, beginning on

531
00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:23,640
Speaker 3: December the sixteenth, any motor carriers using that they will

532
00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:27,520
Speaker 3: be fined and placed out considered.

533
00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:27,880
Speaker 4: Out of service.

534
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:33,480
Speaker 3: The LD ELD provider corrects all the identified deficiencies for

535
00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:38,040
Speaker 3: this device, FMCSA will revisit this and then make these

536
00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:43,280
Speaker 3: devices currently compliant. But if they don't, then you can't

537
00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:45,800
Speaker 3: use them anymore. So again, this will be on my

538
00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:49,960
Speaker 3: Facebook page and you can review it there it's you know,

539
00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:52,760
Speaker 3: there's all kinds of details in here, but you get

540
00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:55,000
Speaker 3: the gist of what's going on. And I'm sure you've

541
00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:58,280
Speaker 3: seen well they've gone through this before. There's been several

542
00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:00,560
Speaker 3: times and several devices over the lad last couple of

543
00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:05,240
Speaker 3: years that have been determined non compliant. So anyway, this

544
00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:08,760
Speaker 3: will be on my Facebook page again, Kevin Gordon Facebook page.

545
00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:15,640
Speaker 3: I mentioned earlier in the report on the initial jobless

546
00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:19,600
Speaker 3: claims that there were comments by the Federal Reserve in

547
00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:23,000
Speaker 3: their Beige Book. Now last week this Beige book was

548
00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:26,960
Speaker 3: published and it talked about the economy. Now, what is

549
00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:30,920
Speaker 3: interesting is that you have the data from the Beige

550
00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:34,440
Speaker 3: Book and then you have these comments that are made

551
00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:38,040
Speaker 3: by others in terms of how they see the economy

552
00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:42,680
Speaker 3: and where they are coming from. With Lion Jerry Powell

553
00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:46,560
Speaker 3: saying that he's still concerned about certain things and there's

554
00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:51,400
Speaker 3: certain signs as far as tariff increases, inflation and so on.

555
00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:57,080
Speaker 3: Unfortunately that's not backed up by his own department of

556
00:33:57,120 --> 00:34:00,840
Speaker 3: the Federal Reserve. The different twelve districts put together this

557
00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:04,320
Speaker 3: Beige book that come up with the economic the economic

558
00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:07,720
Speaker 3: status of the of the different districts in the United

559
00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:12,319
Speaker 3: States in one concise book. Now, again getting back to

560
00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:14,400
Speaker 3: the Beige Book. Back in the day, when it was paper,

561
00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:18,280
Speaker 3: uh uh, paper, devinent, when you had paper, they would

562
00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:20,640
Speaker 3: put this in a book a binder and they would

563
00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:24,400
Speaker 3: read from that in terms of the different districts around

564
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:27,600
Speaker 3: the country, and the cover of the book or the

565
00:34:27,600 --> 00:34:30,480
Speaker 3: binder was beige. So they refer to referred to it

566
00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:33,879
Speaker 3: as the Beige Book. But it's interesting that even though

567
00:34:33,920 --> 00:34:37,240
Speaker 3: this data is out there, that some of the stuff

568
00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:42,640
Speaker 3: coming from the Federal Reserve is not not in compliance

569
00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:47,080
Speaker 3: or in coordination with what their departments are reporting.

570
00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:51,280
Speaker 4: It's kind of weird. Uh, President. Let me see. Here's

571
00:34:51,640 --> 00:34:52,240
Speaker 4: the headline.

572
00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:55,799
Speaker 3: Tariffs are pushing prices higher and consumers are feeling the hit,

573
00:34:56,120 --> 00:34:58,839
Speaker 3: according to the Fed's Beige Book. Now, this is one

574
00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:02,480
Speaker 3: of those situations of where you see the headline and

575
00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:04,759
Speaker 3: then you read the story and you scratch your head

576
00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:07,800
Speaker 3: and say, where'd they come up with that headline? President

577
00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:12,399
Speaker 3: Donald Trump's and tariffs are pushing inflation generally higher as

578
00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:16,399
Speaker 3: companies are caught between absorbing the costs or passing them

579
00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:19,880
Speaker 3: on to customers. According to a Federal Reserve report on Wednesday,

580
00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:25,120
Speaker 3: Central banks periodic Beaige book reports, published eight times a year,

581
00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:29,959
Speaker 3: generally at about six week intervals, categorized overall economic growth

582
00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:35,640
Speaker 3: as having changed little since the last report on September third.

583
00:35:36,239 --> 00:35:42,400
Speaker 3: Labor markets were largely stable as demand was muted.

584
00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:44,719
Speaker 4: For most of the Fed's twelve districts.

585
00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:49,320
Speaker 3: So that would seem to me that everything, well, nothing

586
00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:52,520
Speaker 3: has changed in the last month. Everything is pretty much

587
00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:55,360
Speaker 3: on an even keel. If nobody was hitting the panic

588
00:35:55,400 --> 00:35:58,400
Speaker 3: button a month ago, why are they kind of trying

589
00:35:58,400 --> 00:36:02,560
Speaker 3: to assert maybe a little bit of a wave or

590
00:36:03,280 --> 00:36:08,439
Speaker 3: something going on now as opposed to again, are these

591
00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:11,680
Speaker 3: spoon fed regurgitators? Are some of these people in the

592
00:36:11,719 --> 00:36:15,520
Speaker 3: FED trying to manufacture a recession?

593
00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:18,760
Speaker 4: Do they have a political objective? Again?

594
00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:22,719
Speaker 3: They talk about how Donald Trump is appointing people to

595
00:36:22,760 --> 00:36:26,839
Speaker 3: the Federal Reserve once General Lion Jerry Powell out of there,

596
00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:29,719
Speaker 3: and everybody's saying, well, you know, if he can do that,

597
00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:33,560
Speaker 3: and if he's replacing this person, then the independence of

598
00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:36,040
Speaker 3: the Federal Reserve will be called into question.

599
00:36:36,600 --> 00:36:39,080
Speaker 4: I want to remind you that all.

600
00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:42,000
Speaker 3: The stuff that the Federal Reserve was talking about all

601
00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:47,239
Speaker 3: last year in terms of high inflation rate unemployment, being

602
00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:52,200
Speaker 3: concerned about that inflation was still up. But in September

603
00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:56,240
Speaker 3: of twenty twenty four, a month and a half before

604
00:36:56,400 --> 00:37:01,480
Speaker 3: the general election, they lowered interest rates by a full

605
00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:05,720
Speaker 3: half percentage point, citing they were concerned about the labor market.

606
00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:09,360
Speaker 3: After talking about inflation for the entire year, all of

607
00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:12,279
Speaker 3: a sudden, jobs became the issue. You don't tell me

608
00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:15,600
Speaker 3: that that wasn't political to try to get Kamala Harris elected.

609
00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:18,400
Speaker 3: And when you listen to some of these people that

610
00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:21,280
Speaker 3: have been appointed to the FED, the Federal Reserve Governor,

611
00:37:21,320 --> 00:37:23,600
Speaker 3: the people who are appointed to the FED are appointed

612
00:37:23,640 --> 00:37:27,680
Speaker 3: by the president. So if Joe Biden had appointed some

613
00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:30,040
Speaker 3: of these people on there, you don't think that these

614
00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:32,719
Speaker 3: people are in compliance or have a little bit of

615
00:37:32,719 --> 00:37:36,200
Speaker 3: allegiance to his way of thinking. And so all of

616
00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:40,000
Speaker 3: a sudden they were independent. If a Democrat appoints these people,

617
00:37:40,239 --> 00:37:42,560
Speaker 3: but all of a sudden, if a Republican appoints him,

618
00:37:42,719 --> 00:37:45,919
Speaker 3: all of a sudden, there's political bias in there. Give

619
00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:48,319
Speaker 3: me a break, we'll pick this up coming up. I'm

Speaker 2: Feeling Good eats, Skyline Time. Now Here's Dan.

624
00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:06,000
Speaker 4: And d Lap.

625
00:38:06,080 --> 00:38:09,719
Speaker 7: You not only played all five offensive line positions during

626
00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:13,240
Speaker 7: your career, you did it in the same game twice.

627
00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:17,640
Speaker 4: That's mind boggling to me. How did you know every assignment?

628
00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:21,279
Speaker 19: Yeah, it was interesting. I prided myself on, even in

629
00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:24,760
Speaker 19: high school and college, kind of understanding exactly what everybody

630
00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:27,320
Speaker 19: was doing on the field instead of just tunnel vision

631
00:38:27,360 --> 00:38:31,200
Speaker 19: on my particular play. So knowing what's going on around you,

632
00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:34,640
Speaker 19: knowing what from an environmental standpoint, you know what is

633
00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:37,120
Speaker 19: happening around you, and not having that tunnel vision like

634
00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:40,640
Speaker 19: I just spoke of, and understanding what all of your

635
00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:42,600
Speaker 19: teammates are doing and why they're doing it and how

636
00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:43,719
Speaker 19: they're doing it, and that.

637
00:38:43,719 --> 00:38:45,560
Speaker 4: Allowed me to play any place.

638
00:38:45,760 --> 00:38:48,200

Speaker 3: Progressive Coobstruction Network seven hundred WLW talk about this Bayes

662
00:40:01,280 --> 00:40:04,399
Speaker 3: book report. Tariffs are pushing prices higher and consumers are

663
00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:05,239
Speaker 3: feeling the hit.

664
00:40:05,719 --> 00:40:07,560
Speaker 4: Fed's Beige Book.

665
00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:12,120
Speaker 3: Shows talking about the labor markets largely stable overall economic

666
00:40:12,160 --> 00:40:16,640
Speaker 3: growth having changed little, prices rose further during the reporting period.

667
00:40:16,680 --> 00:40:18,840
Speaker 4: The report stated, tariff.

668
00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:23,319
Speaker 3: Induced input cost increases were reported across many districts, but

669
00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:26,960
Speaker 3: the extent of those higher costs passing through to final

670
00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:33,240
Speaker 3: prices varied. So again going through the process in terms

671
00:40:33,280 --> 00:40:36,440
Speaker 3: of if a tariff is levied, a tariff can be

672
00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:41,600
Speaker 3: absorbed by the company manufacturing that in the foreign country,

673
00:40:42,160 --> 00:40:46,160
Speaker 3: they can lower their prices, giving that or sending that

674
00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:50,400
Speaker 3: to the importer or the exporter. The exporter can absorb

675
00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:54,600
Speaker 3: some of that tariff before they send it overseas. The

676
00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:58,720
Speaker 3: importer on this end could absorb some of that tariff.

677
00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:04,560
Speaker 3: The wholesaleler that receives that from the importer can absorb

678
00:41:04,640 --> 00:41:07,560
Speaker 3: some of that. Then when it gets to the retail outlet,

679
00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:12,440
Speaker 3: the retail outlet can absorb some of that before it

680
00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:16,120
Speaker 3: even gets to the consumer. So all those steps along

681
00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:19,480
Speaker 3: the way this can be looked at. Now, if you've

682
00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:25,080
Speaker 3: got low wages, subsidized wages, subsidized commodities in foreign countries,

683
00:41:25,360 --> 00:41:27,800
Speaker 3: then they are going to be at an advantage in

684
00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:32,120
Speaker 3: terms of having a significant price ting. Again, we did

685
00:41:32,160 --> 00:41:35,839
Speaker 3: the example a month or so ago, talking about that.

686
00:41:36,040 --> 00:41:37,000
Speaker 4: You look at.

687
00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:41,840
Speaker 3: These Nike Jordans, the cost to make those is something

688
00:41:41,880 --> 00:41:44,680
Speaker 3: in the neighborhood of I think twenty five to thirty bucks,

689
00:41:45,520 --> 00:41:47,520
Speaker 3: and you see on the retail end one hundred and

690
00:41:47,560 --> 00:41:50,680
Speaker 3: seventy five plus. That's a hell of a markup, my friends.

691
00:41:51,120 --> 00:41:55,280
Speaker 3: So if that kind of cushion is there along the way,

692
00:41:55,600 --> 00:41:59,880
Speaker 3: either from the manufacture to the importer or the exporter

693
00:42:00,360 --> 00:42:04,319
Speaker 3: to the you know, the importer to the wholesaler to

694
00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:07,000
Speaker 3: the retail and so on, so that amount, if there's

695
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:09,839
Speaker 3: a ten percent increase in the tariff there, that can

696
00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:12,759
Speaker 3: be absorbed along the way because they're making so much

697
00:42:12,800 --> 00:42:16,240
Speaker 3: money to begin with. And again if they are concerned

698
00:42:16,280 --> 00:42:19,120
Speaker 3: about market share and whether or not consumers are going

699
00:42:19,160 --> 00:42:21,120
Speaker 3: to look at those prices and say, you know what,

700
00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:24,120
Speaker 3: I'm going to buy something else, which we are seeing.

701
00:42:24,280 --> 00:42:25,919
Speaker 4: We talk about that coming up.

702
00:42:26,040 --> 00:42:29,480
Speaker 3: But again, some of this is being absorbed before it

703
00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:33,520
Speaker 3: even gets to the consumer level. In some cases, firms

704
00:42:33,560 --> 00:42:38,000
Speaker 3: held prices unchanged to stay competitive, as I mentioned, and

705
00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:42,759
Speaker 3: to appease inflation sensitive clients. However, some businesses say they

706
00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:46,440
Speaker 3: we're fully passing higher import costs along to their customers.

707
00:42:46,719 --> 00:42:49,960
Speaker 3: Now where we have seen that is in the electronics area.

708
00:42:50,280 --> 00:42:52,680
Speaker 3: Some of those areas, some of those items have gone up,

709
00:42:52,960 --> 00:42:56,480
Speaker 3: and I think imported furniture that's another one. A few

710
00:42:56,520 --> 00:43:00,240
Speaker 3: districts reported to the slowing demand actually pushed prices down

711
00:43:00,320 --> 00:43:01,080
Speaker 3: for materials.

712
00:43:01,600 --> 00:43:03,240
Speaker 4: Trade war has escalated.

713
00:43:02,840 --> 00:43:06,560
Speaker 3: In recent days as China has ordered restrictions on coveted

714
00:43:06,680 --> 00:43:10,960
Speaker 3: rare earth minerals, while Trump has retaliated with a thread

715
00:43:10,960 --> 00:43:14,040
Speaker 3: of one hundred percent tariffs on Chinese imports. The release

716
00:43:14,120 --> 00:43:17,920
Speaker 3: comes amid a dearth of relevant economic data due to

717
00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:21,480
Speaker 3: the government shutdown entering the third week. He providers such

718
00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:24,560
Speaker 3: as the Labor and Commerce departments are largely closed due

719
00:43:24,600 --> 00:43:29,160
Speaker 3: to the impass. Again, that information is available through other sources,

720
00:43:29,360 --> 00:43:32,560
Speaker 3: and they've had that. However, Bureau of Labor Statistics workers

721
00:43:32,560 --> 00:43:36,120
Speaker 3: have been called back, so they've been unfurloughed, if you will,

722
00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:40,320
Speaker 3: back to release the pivotal consumer price Index report. Both

723
00:43:40,360 --> 00:43:45,240
Speaker 3: as the inflation gauged to index cost of living adjustments

724
00:43:45,280 --> 00:43:48,759
Speaker 3: for Social Security, so they want them back to come

725
00:43:48,840 --> 00:43:51,520
Speaker 3: up with the numbers for the consumer price index, so

726
00:43:51,560 --> 00:43:55,399
Speaker 3: that information is available to the Federal Reserve when they

727
00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:57,640
Speaker 3: meet on the twenty eighth and twenty ninth of this

728
00:43:57,719 --> 00:43:59,680
Speaker 3: month to determine what they're going to do as far

729
00:43:59,719 --> 00:44:03,880
Speaker 3: as interest rates, but also, as we talked about last week,

730
00:44:04,200 --> 00:44:07,399
Speaker 3: that the information that needs to be inputed as far

731
00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:11,960
Speaker 3: as Social Security, the cost of living allowance that is

732
00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:15,680
Speaker 3: added to those Social Security payments that are going out

733
00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:19,440
Speaker 3: starting in January. But again we're still talking about a

734
00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:23,680
Speaker 3: period of time from October. You know, usually that information,

735
00:44:23,800 --> 00:44:27,080
Speaker 3: as we talked about in that story, comes out. Well,

736
00:44:27,239 --> 00:44:30,040
Speaker 3: last year, it came out on October tenth, I believe

737
00:44:30,320 --> 00:44:32,319
Speaker 3: it was scheduled to come out on the fifteenth of

738
00:44:32,320 --> 00:44:34,520
Speaker 3: this month. So if it comes out next week, which

739
00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:37,120
Speaker 3: they're saying it's going to be out by the twenty fourth,

740
00:44:37,320 --> 00:44:39,200
Speaker 3: shouldn't be a problem and they should be able to

741
00:44:39,200 --> 00:44:42,680
Speaker 3: adjust that as far as the computers are concerned. But again,

742
00:44:42,760 --> 00:44:46,719
Speaker 3: the inflation rate is necessary or a part of the

743
00:44:46,920 --> 00:44:50,000
Speaker 3: numbers that the Federal Reserve look at will look at

744
00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:52,200
Speaker 3: when they meet on the twenty eighth and twenty ninth.

745
00:44:52,400 --> 00:44:56,560
Speaker 3: Basebook said consumer spending nudged lower in recent weeks, though

746
00:44:56,560 --> 00:45:00,479
Speaker 3: it noted strong spending on luxury items and traveled upper

747
00:45:00,520 --> 00:45:06,640
Speaker 3: income earners. Lower and medium earners meanwhile, pursued discounts and promotions,

748
00:45:06,840 --> 00:45:10,480
Speaker 3: which shocks me that people don't do that on a

749
00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:11,480
Speaker 3: normal basis.

750
00:45:11,560 --> 00:45:14,680
Speaker 4: Anyway, who in their right mind wants to.

751
00:45:14,680 --> 00:45:20,239
Speaker 3: Pay something other if a discounted price is available, why

752
00:45:20,320 --> 00:45:23,200
Speaker 3: wouldn't you take advantage of that. I talked about this

753
00:45:23,239 --> 00:45:26,120
Speaker 3: a couple of weeks ago where they were interviewing somebody

754
00:45:26,200 --> 00:45:29,720
Speaker 3: having to do with price increases at Walmart or something,

755
00:45:30,440 --> 00:45:32,080
Speaker 3: and they were talking to somebody who said, well, you know,

756
00:45:32,760 --> 00:45:34,480
Speaker 3: I think I'm going to have to take some drastic

757
00:45:34,560 --> 00:45:39,560
Speaker 3: measures and maybe start using coupons. That's a drastic measure.

758
00:45:40,040 --> 00:45:43,799
Speaker 3: Another thing they talk about is people using you know,

759
00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:46,920
Speaker 3: dropping down a notch or maybe going with store brands.

760
00:45:47,040 --> 00:45:51,840
Speaker 3: Let me tell you something. You know, well, it winds

761
00:45:51,920 --> 00:45:54,719
Speaker 3: up being a plug for krog But that's where we

762
00:45:54,800 --> 00:45:58,279
Speaker 3: shop a lot. But years ago, just for the heck

763
00:45:58,360 --> 00:46:00,360
Speaker 3: of it, I think it was back in two thousand

764
00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:03,759
Speaker 3: and eight or whatever, during the great recession that they

765
00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:07,160
Speaker 3: call called it, I thought, well, you know, what the heck,

766
00:46:07,200 --> 00:46:11,160
Speaker 3: I'm going to try their brands, either for peanut butter

767
00:46:11,280 --> 00:46:16,480
Speaker 3: or cereal, the various Kroger brands. And what shot the

768
00:46:16,600 --> 00:46:20,120
Speaker 3: heck out of me is that I've found that some

769
00:46:20,200 --> 00:46:22,799
Speaker 3: of their items I'll mind you when you get to

770
00:46:22,920 --> 00:46:26,680
Speaker 3: Hines and Frenches mustard and stuff like that, No, it's

771
00:46:26,680 --> 00:46:29,560
Speaker 3: not the same. But as far as peanut butter is concerned,

772
00:46:29,840 --> 00:46:33,480
Speaker 3: I prefer to the national brands. And if you look

773
00:46:33,600 --> 00:46:37,560
Speaker 3: at the ingredients on the cereal and you look at

774
00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:41,080
Speaker 3: some of the ingredients, the artificial colors and stuff like that,

775
00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:43,959
Speaker 3: that's not in the Kroger brands, but it is in

776
00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:48,880
Speaker 3: the national brands. And it's My wife has been conscious

777
00:46:48,920 --> 00:46:52,440
Speaker 3: of this for hush over a decade now, maybe fifteen years,

778
00:46:53,040 --> 00:46:55,400
Speaker 3: and she'll go to you know, we'll be in this

779
00:46:55,520 --> 00:46:57,400
Speaker 3: store and she'll look at those things say well, this

780
00:46:57,440 --> 00:46:59,879
Speaker 3: has got this and this, this and this, and even

781
00:47:00,080 --> 00:47:03,919
Speaker 3: though in low levels it's not supposed to in low

782
00:47:04,040 --> 00:47:06,919
Speaker 3: levels it doesn't harm you. But the fact that it's

783
00:47:06,960 --> 00:47:10,240
Speaker 3: in almost everything you eat, then it's going to build

784
00:47:10,320 --> 00:47:12,279
Speaker 3: up in the system and cause problems.

785
00:47:12,719 --> 00:47:13,839
Speaker 4: This might be part of.

786
00:47:13,760 --> 00:47:18,440
Speaker 3: The maybe my wife should have been the Maha or

787
00:47:19,560 --> 00:47:22,840
Speaker 3: maybe she should have had Bobby Kennedy's job all these years,

788
00:47:23,080 --> 00:47:24,560
Speaker 3: but part of the Maha movement.

789
00:47:24,640 --> 00:47:27,120
Speaker 4: Basically she was Maha before Maha was MA.

790
00:47:27,920 --> 00:47:31,080
Speaker 3: But again, when you look at the individual ingredients, I

791
00:47:31,280 --> 00:47:34,320
Speaker 3: was shocked at you know, you go to the ingredients

792
00:47:34,360 --> 00:47:38,200
Speaker 3: and you know, they're like a three inches long. Some

793
00:47:38,239 --> 00:47:40,399
Speaker 3: of the stuff on the Kroger brands are like, you know,

794
00:47:40,560 --> 00:47:44,680
Speaker 3: a few ingredients and stuff. It is absolutely amazing, and

795
00:47:44,960 --> 00:47:48,960
Speaker 3: they're generally you know, priced differently or priced lower, and

796
00:47:49,080 --> 00:47:51,840
Speaker 3: so you know, that's a way of cutting your bills

797
00:47:51,920 --> 00:47:56,600
Speaker 3: and actually eating better. So again, discounting and going to

798
00:47:56,920 --> 00:48:00,879
Speaker 3: a lower priced item sometimes not all that bad. Sometimes

799
00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:03,000
Speaker 3: some of the things that you're I don't want to

800
00:48:03,040 --> 00:48:06,080
Speaker 3: say forced into, but some of the stuff you explore,

801
00:48:06,520 --> 00:48:09,960
Speaker 3: you wind up finding a better way of doing things.

802
00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:10,719
Speaker 4: And as I.

803
00:48:10,719 --> 00:48:14,360
Speaker 3: Mentioned before, takes about an hour a week out of

804
00:48:14,360 --> 00:48:18,000
Speaker 3: your time to kind of check where the low prices

805
00:48:18,040 --> 00:48:22,760
Speaker 3: are in the stores around you and maybe download digital

806
00:48:22,800 --> 00:48:26,880
Speaker 3: coupons to save some money. Where they talk about in

807
00:48:26,920 --> 00:48:29,920
Speaker 3: here that well, you know, cost conscious people are looking

808
00:48:29,960 --> 00:48:33,440
Speaker 3: for discounts and promotions. Why wouldn't you do that on

809
00:48:33,480 --> 00:48:36,360
Speaker 3: a regular basis? Folks were up against clock here. We

810
00:48:36,360 --> 00:48:38,240
Speaker 3: didn't have time to get some of these other stories,

811
00:48:38,239 --> 00:48:41,600

00:52:34,640 --> 00:52:38,360
Speaker 23: be able to earn compensation, not just be given compensation,

885
00:52:38,440 --> 00:52:40,799
Speaker 23: but to earn it based on the licensing of their name,

886

Speaker 23: image and likeness for social media influencing and other things.
