1 00:00:02,400 --> 00:00:03,000 Speaker 1: Good morning. 2 00:00:03,120 --> 00:00:05,880 Speaker 2: I'm Brian Curtiz and I'm Doug Krisner. Here are the 3 00:00:05,920 --> 00:00:07,320 Speaker 2: stories we're following today. 4 00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:13,160 Speaker 1: Higher bond yields affecting markets generally right around the globe. 5 00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:16,640 Speaker 1: We had also the US government reporting producer prices rising 6 00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:19,799 Speaker 1: more than expected in July. Service costs were up the 7 00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:22,880 Speaker 1: most in nearly a year. The benchmark tenure yield, the 8 00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:26,000 Speaker 1: baseline for the broader financial system, has been pushing back 9 00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:29,080 Speaker 1: toward last year's highs of about four and a quarter percent. 10 00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:32,040 Speaker 1: As mentioned, we're at four point fifteen as we get 11 00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:35,440 Speaker 1: started this week. The former bond king Bill Gross says, 12 00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:37,400 Speaker 1: the yield on the tenure is headed higher. 13 00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:39,600 Speaker 3: You know, if you had one hundred and thirty five 14 00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:42,360 Speaker 3: basis points to two and a half or even three 15 00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:44,720 Speaker 3: percent on FED fund check, you get to a point 16 00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:47,720 Speaker 3: where we are now. And that suggests that all of 17 00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:51,520 Speaker 3: the bulls on treasuries, on the tenure and maybe even 18 00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:54,880 Speaker 3: on the long run, I think their arguments are a 19 00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:55,800 Speaker 3: little misplaced. 20 00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:59,080 Speaker 1: In the coming week, markets who will be analyzing minutes 21 00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:02,120 Speaker 1: from the Fed's July I'm meeting for clues on where 22 00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:05,120 Speaker 1: rates might be headed. In the following week, the focus 23 00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:07,639 Speaker 1: will shift to the fed's annual gathering of global Central 24 00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:09,600 Speaker 1: bankers in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. 25 00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:12,280 Speaker 2: Well, some of the biggest US retailers are about to 26 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:14,679 Speaker 2: grab the earning spotlight in the week ahead. We'll hear 27 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:17,680 Speaker 2: from Walmart, along with Home Depot and Target. They are 28 00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:22,399 Speaker 2: all scheduled to report quartal results. One question is on 29 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:27,280 Speaker 2: how middle income American consumers will have responded to higher prices. 30 00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:30,800 Speaker 2: Here's Joe Feldman, senior analyst at Telsey Advisory. 31 00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:33,680 Speaker 4: Middle is kind of squeezed right now, and that's where 32 00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:36,880 Speaker 4: we're seeing that middle has been trading down, That aspirational 33 00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:39,720 Speaker 4: customer has traded down a little, and middle has traded down. 34 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:43,199 Speaker 4: So I think that still positions Target and Walmart pretty well. 35 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 2: That is Joe Feldman speaking on the Bloomberg Surveillance podcast. 36 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:50,160 Speaker 2: By the way, last quarters, some retailers like Target and 37 00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:55,480 Speaker 2: Macy's were very cautious, but now with recession calls fading. 38 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:59,120 Speaker 2: Here's one analyst, Andrea and Yee over at Barclay. She 39 00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:03,680 Speaker 2: is forecasting the US retail shares will outperform next year. 40 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 2: Ran well. 41 00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:09,600 Speaker 1: US Steel is exploring multiple offers now as it rejects 42 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:12,960 Speaker 1: a buyout offer from its rival Cleveland Cliffs. Let's get 43 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 1: the story from Bloomberg's Denise Pellegreeni. 44 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:19,079 Speaker 5: Manufacturer Cleveland Cliffs offering to buy the iconic Pittsburgh based 45 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:21,919 Speaker 5: steelmaker and a cash and stock deal as it looks 46 00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 5: to create one of the world's largest steel makers. Cleveland 47 00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:27,800 Speaker 5: Cliffs offering to pay seventeen dollars fifty cents a share 48 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:30,200 Speaker 5: in cash and one point two to three of its 49 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 5: own shares for each US steal stock, and says that 50 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:35,800 Speaker 5: applies a value of thirty two bucks fifty three cents 51 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:37,919 Speaker 5: per share as of Friday's clothes, and that would be 52 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:41,920 Speaker 5: a forty three percent premium to US Steel's last closing 53 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:44,960 Speaker 5: price of twenty two seventy two. But US Steel calls 54 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:48,840 Speaker 5: Cleveland Cliffs offer unreasonable. Earlier in the day, US Steel 55 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,520 Speaker 5: senator received multiple offers for all are part of the 56 00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:55,800 Speaker 5: company and was initiating a strategic review. Denise Pellegreni Bloomberg 57 00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 5: Day Break Asia. 58 00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:00,680 Speaker 1: And again, as Denise mentioned there, Cleveland Lifts was flat 59 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:03,280 Speaker 1: of the session on Friday, but we did have a 60 00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:06,080 Speaker 1: very modest gaining US deal, as she mentioned, up about 61 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:08,120 Speaker 1: one percent to twenty two seventy two. 62 00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:11,280 Speaker 2: We go to China next, where the government is issuing 63 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:14,560 Speaker 2: a plan to attract more foreign investment. The story from 64 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 2: Bloomberg's Juan Wong in Hong Kong. 65 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:19,960 Speaker 6: China State Council is encouraging foreign companies to set up 66 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 6: research and development centers here. The plan will help accelerate 67 00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:26,800 Speaker 6: work on foreign projects in the biofarm and telecom sectors. 68 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 6: Will also increase fiscal and tax support for foreign businesses. 69 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 6: The goal is to improve the business environment as China 70 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,680 Speaker 6: seeks to bolster ris economy. So far, the economy has 71 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:39,280 Speaker 6: shown few signs of a rebound. New stress and the 72 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 6: property market and deflation are threatening the growth outlook in 73 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 6: Hong Kong. Join Wong Bloomberg Day, Brick Asia and with 74 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 6: more on properties. 75 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 1: Chinese developer Country Garden says it will suspend trading in 76 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 1: nearly a dozen onshore bonds. Six yuan denominated corporate bonds 77 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 1: issued in twenty twenty one and twenty two will be 78 00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,400 Speaker 1: suspended from trading today. That's according to five links to 79 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 1: the Shenjen Stock Exchange. Three additional bonds will be subject 80 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:07,400 Speaker 1: to suspension on the Shanghai Exchange. It comes after Country 81 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 1: Gardens said he would report a multi billion dollar loss 82 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 1: for the first half of the year. The developer apologized 83 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 1: and said that his planning to hold meetings soon with 84 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 1: bondholders on various repayment options. The company's shares fell another 85 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 1: six percent in Hong Kong on Friday, closing below one 86 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:28,880 Speaker 1: Hong Kong dollar for the first time ever. DOUG The 87 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:32,799 Speaker 1: China loan data that came out late Friday was shockingly low, 88 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 1: around just one eighth of the previous month and less 89 00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:40,480 Speaker 1: than half of the Bloomberg survey estimate. So it seems 90 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 1: that both both businesses and households are de leveraging there. 91 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 1: We'll keep a close eye on trust funds today and 92 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:50,039 Speaker 1: trust products. A lot of rumors circulating on Friday. I 93 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:52,839 Speaker 1: mentioned that stocks were slammed. The CSI three hundred traded 94 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:56,039 Speaker 1: down two point three percent. That's spread as well to 95 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 1: Hong Kong and also through the Shanghai market, so today 96 00:04:58,800 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 1: could be quite fascinating. 97 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:03,040 Speaker 2: It's interesting with the weakness that we're seeing in China's economy. 98 00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 2: Even so, Bloomberg Economics is expecting the PBOC to hold 99 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 2: its one year medium term lending facility rate steady this week. 100 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:15,039 Speaker 2: That's a two sixty five This would mark the second 101 00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 2: month of what Bloomberg Economics is essentially calling a tactical pause. 102 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 2: We did have that ten basis point rate cut back 103 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:25,359 Speaker 2: in June, and I think Bloomberg Economics would agree with 104 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:28,800 Speaker 2: what you're saying, Brian, that the economy clearly needs a 105 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:30,760 Speaker 2: lot more in the way of support and it will 106 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 2: be delivered. B E sees that happening in the third 107 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:35,279 Speaker 2: quarter of the year. 108 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:40,360 Speaker 1: It's such a cautious, piecemeal approach. It's just really surprising. 109 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:44,479 Speaker 1: People are looking for something dramatic, something that's in the 110 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:46,520 Speaker 1: shock and aw category, but we're not getting it. 111 00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:46,840 Speaker 6: Yeah. 112 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 1: I wanted to mention Neil Ferguson as well. I don't 113 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:51,400 Speaker 1: know if you saw his pride, but he's not a 114 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,120 Speaker 1: kid anymore, doesn't believe in Santa Claus, the tooth Fairy 115 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:57,360 Speaker 1: and soft landings. I thought it was great. He said 116 00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 1: if pilots had the same success rate as the Fed, 117 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 1: none of us would fly. And he gets Humpty Dumpty 118 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:07,160 Speaker 1: and Goldilocks and Ulysses in there as well. I guess 119 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 1: you know, he's maybe not so far away from what 120 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 1: Bill Gross is saying, and that he sees too hot 121 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:15,159 Speaker 1: becoming too cold and rates. He thinks rates are going 122 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 1: to head. 123 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:16,400 Speaker 5: Up from here. 124 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:18,760 Speaker 2: On the other side, I want to point out what 125 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 2: the economist over at Goldman Sachs are saying. They are 126 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:24,520 Speaker 2: expecting the Fed to begin lowering interest rates by the 127 00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:27,039 Speaker 2: end of next June, you know. 128 00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:30,920 Speaker 1: And there was an interesting piece that Neil put in there. 129 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:32,599 Speaker 1: I didn't see this in the Wall Street Journal, but 130 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 1: I know you really read the newspaper, so you might 131 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,719 Speaker 1: have seen this from James Macintosh that if the US 132 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:41,280 Speaker 1: measured inflation the way Europe does, then inflation and core 133 00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:44,239 Speaker 1: inflation would already be down to two point three percent. 134 00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:48,280 Speaker 1: Apparently Europe doesn't use owner's equivalent rent. Yeah, so that's 135 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:48,839 Speaker 1: quite interesting. 136 00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:49,480 Speaker 2: It's a good point. 137 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 1: Right now, it's time for Global news. The Maui wildfire 138 00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 1: is now the deadliest in the US in one hundred 139 00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:01,160 Speaker 1: five years. At Baxter as Global News from the nine 140 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:03,440 Speaker 1: sixty newsroom in San Francisco. 141 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:05,479 Speaker 7: D Yeah, that's right, Brian. The death troll now stands 142 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 7: at ninety three for the fires. But my police chief, 143 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:11,520 Speaker 7: John Pelletier says the search and recovery efforts are at 144 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 7: a very early stage. 145 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:15,960 Speaker 8: We're going as fast as we can, but just so 146 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:18,760 Speaker 8: you know. Three percent, that's what's been searched with the dogs. 147 00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 8: Three percent. We got twelve more dogs on the way today. 148 00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:23,880 Speaker 8: We just made that. I made that request, FEMA made 149 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:26,600 Speaker 8: that happen. They're on their way. But think about how 150 00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:28,360 Speaker 8: hot and how humid it is, and we can only 151 00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 8: go as fast as that animal can go. 152 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 7: But tongress Jill Takuda on CBS has heard here on Bloomberg, 153 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 7: so she understands people want to get back into the 154 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 7: area to see if there's anything left or to recover, 155 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 7: but that it's too dangerous and that the sanctity of 156 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:44,960 Speaker 7: the people who didn't make it out must be observed. 157 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:47,640 Speaker 7: She did, though, visit Lihinatown herself, to. 158 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:51,679 Speaker 9: Still see fires smoldering in the distance, to see cars 159 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:55,160 Speaker 9: literally melted into the puddles that have hardened over on 160 00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:58,640 Speaker 9: the road, x's on buildings and cars, to say that 161 00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:03,360 Speaker 9: it has been searched, signs of casualties or even life. 162 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:07,240 Speaker 7: Meanwhile, Governor Josh Green says the state will investigate why 163 00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:11,440 Speaker 7: the emergency siren systems were not activated and whether life 164 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 7: and property could have been protected. 165 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,640 Speaker 10: We have doubts that much could have been done with 166 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:19,200 Speaker 10: a fiery, fast moving fire like. 167 00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 7: That, but he says that it's caused by climate change 168 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 7: and hurricane passing through producing winds now. One thing he 169 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 7: does say interesting, he knows for sure Maui needs to 170 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:32,319 Speaker 7: protect itself from outside interest moving in and buying up 171 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:34,079 Speaker 7: any land that could be abandoned. 172 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:37,200 Speaker 10: We will, through whatever emergency powers we have to use, 173 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 10: prevent this land from going outside of state ownership. 174 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:44,200 Speaker 7: Now four days on, still remains unclear the cause, although 175 00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:46,559 Speaker 7: Hawaiian law firm says it is going to look into 176 00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:50,040 Speaker 7: the possibility that down power lines could have triggered at 177 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:54,640 Speaker 7: least one of them. China's Foreign ministries criticized Taiwan's Vice 178 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 7: Premier Lai Chang tay stopover in the US. Official statement says, 179 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 7: seriously violate. It's the one China principle. Orange barricades have 180 00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:06,120 Speaker 7: been set up around the Fulton County Courthouse in Atlanta, 181 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:09,520 Speaker 7: where Donald Trump may face his fourth criminal indictment this week, 182 00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:13,280 Speaker 7: oh at the Georgia Secretary of State's Office. Gabriel Sterling 183 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:16,880 Speaker 7: today on ABC Has Heard on Bloomberg said that Trump 184 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:19,400 Speaker 7: knew he had lost the election but continued to push 185 00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 7: for the votes. 186 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 11: We've been saying this over and over again. We counted 187 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:25,360 Speaker 11: the ballots three times. He lost this state, and he 188 00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 11: continued to say he didn't lose it. And it's just 189 00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:32,320 Speaker 11: creating a lot of tension and a lot of chaos. 190 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:33,600 Speaker 7: Which Sterling says could lead to violence. 191 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:35,439 Speaker 11: Somebody will be motivated by some of this kind of 192 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:38,240 Speaker 11: language at some point and do something stupid. It's not 193 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:40,040 Speaker 11: me an organized thing. It's not going to be a 194 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 11: bunch of conspirators together. It's mean one probably mentally unstable 195 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 11: individual who's going to be radicalized to this process. 196 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:49,120 Speaker 7: And the Grand Jury is due to meet on Tuesday, 197 00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:53,439 Speaker 7: and oh no, no, it looks as if the Musksuck 198 00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 7: cage fight is not going to happen. Mark Zuckerberg says 199 00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:00,080 Speaker 7: it's time to move on from the speculation. He says, quote, 200 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:03,000 Speaker 7: if Elon ever gets serious about a real date and 201 00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:06,240 Speaker 7: official event, he knows how to reach me. Otherwise, time 202 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:08,680 Speaker 7: to move on. I'm going to focus on competing with 203 00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:13,120 Speaker 7: people who take the sports seriously well. Global news power 204 00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:15,640 Speaker 7: by more than twenty seven hundred journalists and analysts in 205 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:18,760 Speaker 7: over one hundred twenty countries. In San Francisco, I'm at 206 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:20,480 Speaker 7: Baxter and this is Bloomberg. 207 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:23,840 Speaker 1: This is Bloomberg Daybreak Asia. I'm Brian Curtis along with 208 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 1: Vonnie Quinn in New York, and a guest is Walter Todd, 209 00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:32,600 Speaker 1: President and Chief investment Officer and managing director at Greenwood Capital. Walter, 210 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 1: So we can talk about higher yields, and we can 211 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 1: talk about possible soft landings and such. I wanted to 212 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:42,720 Speaker 1: point out that we've now seen Nvidia, Broadcom, Microsoft and 213 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:47,280 Speaker 1: Apple all selling down now about ten to thirteen percent. 214 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:50,959 Speaker 1: I'm curious from your point of view whether that's reality 215 00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 1: setting in or if it's Algos and their mean reversion 216 00:10:55,760 --> 00:11:00,640 Speaker 1: strategies or programs or just sort of sensible rotating and balancing. 217 00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:05,839 Speaker 12: Yeah, well get evening from the US. Yeah. I think 218 00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:08,040 Speaker 12: it's probably a little bit of each of those things. 219 00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 12: Quite honestly. I mean, I think when you look at 220 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:13,640 Speaker 12: the reactions that stock so far I've gotten from earnings, 221 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 12: it's they've been pretty quote unquote violent, but in both directions. 222 00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:21,960 Speaker 12: And I think the super micro computer SMCI last week 223 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:26,440 Speaker 12: could be a potential playbook for Nvidia. You really good earnings, 224 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 12: but yet the stock was down twenty five percent. Not 225 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 12: that Nvidia is going to drop twenty five percent, But 226 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,520 Speaker 12: you get my point. So I think there is some 227 00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:37,240 Speaker 12: kind of rationalization going on and people looking for more 228 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:40,200 Speaker 12: undervalued parts of the market. You've seen that with energy, 229 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 12: You've seen it a little bit in healthcare, although not 230 00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:45,280 Speaker 12: to a great degree, And I think you could see 231 00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:48,600 Speaker 12: some more of that as we work through the fall, Walter. 232 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:51,160 Speaker 11: We have been seeing breath improved just a little bit 233 00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:52,360 Speaker 11: in the S and B five hundred. 234 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:54,680 Speaker 6: Does that give you any hope that maybe we are 235 00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:55,680 Speaker 6: not in for a correction? 236 00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:00,880 Speaker 12: Yeah, it is, you know, encouraging to see more than 237 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:04,120 Speaker 12: more than seven days participating, for sure, But you're still 238 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:06,559 Speaker 12: you still see a pretty you know, dramatic spread between 239 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 12: the SMP and the equal weight SMP almost a little 240 00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:11,719 Speaker 12: over nine hundred basis points there on a year to 241 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:15,080 Speaker 12: date basis, So it's still pretty narrow from from that perspective, 242 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:18,280 Speaker 12: I think, you know, if you look at the past year, 243 00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:20,720 Speaker 12: we've had two kind of eight to nine percent corrections, 244 00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:24,200 Speaker 12: one in December of twenty two, one in February March 245 00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 12: around the bank failures. So I think it would be 246 00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:31,400 Speaker 12: natural and probably healthy ultimately, if not too much fun 247 00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:34,679 Speaker 12: necessarily to have a eight to nine percent. We're down 248 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:37,240 Speaker 12: about three percent right now. You know, down eight to 249 00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:39,079 Speaker 12: nine would take you to around forty two hundred on 250 00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:39,559 Speaker 12: the SMP. 251 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:43,680 Speaker 1: So we have still a lot of bears around, although 252 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:46,720 Speaker 1: many have capitulated. But in the bear camp you have 253 00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:49,040 Speaker 1: some that think that inflation will rear its ugly head 254 00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:52,160 Speaker 1: again and the FED has to just get on steroids 255 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:55,040 Speaker 1: once again. And then you have others that say, no, 256 00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 1: they've already done too much, and you know you've got 257 00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:00,240 Speaker 1: recession coming and there's really no way to avoid it. 258 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:03,040 Speaker 1: How do you actually see the full picture at the moment. 259 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:08,200 Speaker 12: Yeah, it's very complicated, honestly. Right now, I keep going 260 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:10,280 Speaker 12: back to this Mark Twain quote, is it ain't what 261 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:12,040 Speaker 12: you don't know that gets you into trouble. It's what 262 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 12: you know for sure that just ain't so. And that 263 00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:17,840 Speaker 12: feels like that captures the moment right now. So I 264 00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:19,640 Speaker 12: do think it's going to be tough to get inflation 265 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:22,520 Speaker 12: down from three percent to two. So if the FED 266 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:25,480 Speaker 12: is truly intent on getting there in a hurry, then 267 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:27,240 Speaker 12: I think they're going to continue to raise race and 268 00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:29,920 Speaker 12: I do think that would be a mistake. Right now, I. 269 00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:32,240 Speaker 1: Got a question. I hate to cut you off, and 270 00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 1: I got a question and we got a sneak itting, 271 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:37,760 Speaker 1: which is, I'm a little bit confused because we hear 272 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,320 Speaker 1: a lot that recessions are usually caused not by what 273 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:42,640 Speaker 1: you know, and you just mentioned that by some sort 274 00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:47,280 Speaker 1: of exogenous occurrence. And yet many people really believe in 275 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:50,360 Speaker 1: the in the inversion of the yield curve as a 276 00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:53,280 Speaker 1: signal that you have to have recession. I mean, they 277 00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:54,360 Speaker 1: can't both be right. 278 00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:57,600 Speaker 12: No, I agree, that's what makes it so complicated. I mean, 279 00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:00,800 Speaker 12: that's what everyone knows for sure. I mean myself in 280 00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:03,080 Speaker 12: the same camp. I mean, I'll look at the history 281 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:05,440 Speaker 12: and what these signals are. You know, I've told you 282 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:08,000 Speaker 12: in the past, and they're not working at this point. 283 00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:09,160 Speaker 12: I think a lot of that has to do with 284 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:11,960 Speaker 12: the distortion coming out of COVID and some of the 285 00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:14,640 Speaker 12: dynamics there with the labor market and all the excess 286 00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:18,160 Speaker 12: capital floating around in the financial system right now. I 287 00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:20,880 Speaker 12: think it's just making a very confusing picture right now. 288 00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:27,000 Speaker 1: This is Bloomberg Daybreak Asia, your morning brief on this 289 00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:30,720 Speaker 1: story's making news from Hong Kong to Singapore and Wall Street. 290 00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 2: Look for us on your podcast feed every day on Apple, Spotify, 291 00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:37,000 Speaker 2: and anywhere else you get your podcasts. 292 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:39,560 Speaker 1: You can also listen live each day on Bloomberg eleven 293 00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:42,000 Speaker 1: three to zero in New York, Bloomberg ninety nine to 294 00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:45,240 Speaker 1: one in Washington, Bloomberg one oh six y one in Boston, 295 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:47,960 Speaker 1: and Bloomberg nine sixty in San Francisco. 296 00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:50,920 Speaker 2: Our flagship New York station is also available on your 297 00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:56,040 Speaker 2: Amazon Alexa devices.
