So Porter, I mean, you're you're a 26 00:01:22,337 --> 00:01:25,577 Speaker 2: guy who has made incredible calls over your career in 27 00:01:25,617 --> 00:01:28,617 Speaker 2: the market and that's obviously what folks over at market 28 00:01:28,617 --> 00:01:30,857 Speaker 2: wise do. I wanted to dive in because you wrote 29 00:01:30,897 --> 00:01:33,817 Speaker 2: something this is in my inbox, uh from from you 30 00:01:34,137 --> 00:01:38,017 Speaker 2: about not only what's going on now with Boeing, one 31 00:01:38,017 --> 00:01:42,457 Speaker 2: of the most well known American probably best known American 32 00:01:42,497 --> 00:01:47,217 Speaker 2: engineering related company. Maybe gees up there, but you saw 33 00:01:47,257 --> 00:01:49,977 Speaker 2: this coming. Tell me what you saw a year ago, 34 00:01:50,057 --> 00:01:51,577 Speaker 2: and then we can get into what's happening now. 35 00:01:52,697 --> 00:01:58,017 Speaker 1: I think it's a fascinating situation because Boeing, among other 36 00:01:58,177 --> 00:02:02,257 Speaker 1: large American corporations, has been one of the folks who 37 00:02:02,297 --> 00:02:06,537 Speaker 1: has most fervently embraced the whole DEI mythology if you will, 38 00:02:07,137 --> 00:02:11,777 Speaker 1: the idea that that you can have a better corporation 39 00:02:11,897 --> 00:02:16,937 Speaker 1: of better business if you give opportunities that on a 40 00:02:17,137 --> 00:02:20,297 Speaker 1: pure metocracy would have belonged to someone else. You give 41 00:02:20,337 --> 00:02:23,657 Speaker 1: those opportunities to someone of color, or someone who's a woman, 42 00:02:24,337 --> 00:02:29,257 Speaker 1: or someone who has confused sexuality issues that somehow the 43 00:02:29,857 --> 00:02:32,817 Speaker 1: DEI theory is that that'll make your products better, that'll 44 00:02:32,857 --> 00:02:36,417 Speaker 1: make your customers happier, that'll make your profits bigger. But 45 00:02:36,497 --> 00:02:39,577 Speaker 1: what we see as investment analysts time and time again 46 00:02:39,737 --> 00:02:43,177 Speaker 1: that firms that embrace this kind of DEI I think, 47 00:02:43,257 --> 00:02:48,697 Speaker 1: or the general ESG. They call it mindset, actually perform 48 00:02:49,177 --> 00:02:52,497 Speaker 1: poor going forward, in part because their cultures get wrecked 49 00:02:52,737 --> 00:02:55,297 Speaker 1: and buck I'm sure you can understand this. If you're 50 00:02:55,337 --> 00:02:58,977 Speaker 1: working with a group of people and suddenly promotions and 51 00:02:59,057 --> 00:03:03,137 Speaker 1: raises and bonuses start getting doled out because of factors 52 00:03:03,217 --> 00:03:06,817 Speaker 1: other than performance, it has a really shockingly bad impact 53 00:03:06,897 --> 00:03:10,337 Speaker 1: on the culture. It leads to all kinds of bad 54 00:03:10,417 --> 00:03:13,057 Speaker 1: things happening. But the most notable thing is that the 55 00:03:13,097 --> 00:03:15,377 Speaker 1: truly talented people are going to leave and go work 56 00:03:15,417 --> 00:03:19,377 Speaker 1: for SpaceX, which is what they've done, and the people 57 00:03:19,457 --> 00:03:21,137 Speaker 1: you get left with are the people who are really 58 00:03:21,177 --> 00:03:25,017 Speaker 1: good at corporate infighting and corporate politics, but not necessarily 59 00:03:25,017 --> 00:03:28,537 Speaker 1: good at all at engineering. And as a as a 60 00:03:28,577 --> 00:03:30,497 Speaker 1: part of all that, I'd like to I'd like to 61 00:03:30,537 --> 00:03:35,817 Speaker 1: call your attention to the woman who is currently the 62 00:03:35,817 --> 00:03:42,777 Speaker 1: the chief operating officer at Boeing and UH. Her name 63 00:03:42,857 --> 00:03:46,617 Speaker 1: is Stephanie, and she has a thirty year career as 64 00:03:46,697 --> 00:03:50,897 Speaker 1: an accountant. So she was the you know, the top 65 00:03:50,937 --> 00:03:55,137 Speaker 1: accountant at Boeing Airplanes and and she has a degree 66 00:03:55,177 --> 00:04:01,377 Speaker 1: from Southwestern Missouri State and she has an NBA hold on. 67 00:04:01,417 --> 00:04:03,257 Speaker 1: I got to reference my notes for this because I'd 68 00:04:03,257 --> 00:04:07,697 Speaker 1: never heard of this school. Oh, this intellectual powerhouse, Lyndon 69 00:04:07,777 --> 00:04:11,577 Speaker 1: Wood University. So so what you've got here as a 70 00:04:11,737 --> 00:04:14,697 Speaker 1: as a as a female with no engineering background, And 71 00:04:14,737 --> 00:04:17,777 Speaker 1: I'll go public with this. I'll bet one thousand dollars 72 00:04:18,297 --> 00:04:22,257 Speaker 1: that Stephanie cannot change the oil in her car. But 73 00:04:22,377 --> 00:04:27,377 Speaker 1: she is the director of operations for Boeing, which is 74 00:04:27,697 --> 00:04:30,857 Speaker 1: the most important engineering firm in the United States by 75 00:04:30,897 --> 00:04:33,657 Speaker 1: a mile, and one of the most important companies in 76 00:04:33,697 --> 00:04:38,537 Speaker 1: the world. The whole global transportation infrastructure requires Boeing aircraft 77 00:04:39,217 --> 00:04:40,937 Speaker 1: and they need to be well made and safe. 78 00:04:41,617 --> 00:04:43,857 Speaker 2: Well, this is this is in the headlines obviously porter 79 00:04:43,937 --> 00:04:46,337 Speaker 2: because a piece of register bring everyone up to speed 80 00:04:46,337 --> 00:04:49,177 Speaker 2: for this week, A piece of a Boeing seven thirty 81 00:04:49,217 --> 00:04:53,617 Speaker 2: seven to nine Max fuselage tore off and people can 82 00:04:53,617 --> 00:04:55,617 Speaker 2: see it. I mean, there's video of this from the 83 00:04:55,617 --> 00:04:58,577 Speaker 2: plane from the inside tore off mid flight during an 84 00:04:58,617 --> 00:05:00,577 Speaker 2: Alaska Airlines flight and. 85 00:05:00,977 --> 00:05:03,177 Speaker 1: This is this is this is not this actually is 86 00:05:03,217 --> 00:05:06,297 Speaker 1: not new. They've had They've had consistent problems with their 87 00:05:06,337 --> 00:05:10,617 Speaker 1: aircraft for at least the last six years, including too 88 00:05:10,737 --> 00:05:14,137 Speaker 1: fatal crashes, and they've had an engineering culture that was 89 00:05:14,137 --> 00:05:18,177 Speaker 1: gutted after the merger with McDonald Douglas in ninety seven. 90 00:05:18,537 --> 00:05:20,737 Speaker 1: But Buck, I want to get to a really important 91 00:05:20,737 --> 00:05:23,937 Speaker 1: point about this, would why on earth would you have 92 00:05:24,057 --> 00:05:28,817 Speaker 1: someone with no engineering background whatsoever with degrees from Southwest 93 00:05:28,817 --> 00:05:34,337 Speaker 1: Missouri State and Lindenberg sorry Lyndon Wood University. I don't 94 00:05:34,337 --> 00:05:38,257 Speaker 1: think that is the sharpest engineer or tool and drawer. 95 00:05:38,537 --> 00:05:40,897 Speaker 1: So why would Stephanie get one of the most important 96 00:05:40,977 --> 00:05:44,617 Speaker 1: jobs in engineering. Well maybe because she is the executive 97 00:05:44,697 --> 00:05:51,377 Speaker 1: sponsor of Boeing's Women Inspiring Leadership. What's that, Buck, It's 98 00:05:51,417 --> 00:05:56,937 Speaker 1: a group that's dedicated to increasing gender diversity awareness and that, 99 00:05:57,097 --> 00:05:59,937 Speaker 1: by the way, is right off of Boeing's website. So 100 00:06:00,297 --> 00:06:02,537 Speaker 1: what is going on at Boeing is you have a 101 00:06:02,537 --> 00:06:05,297 Speaker 1: whole bunch of people who are being promoted and getting 102 00:06:05,297 --> 00:06:08,897 Speaker 1: opportunities because of their political orientation or because of the 103 00:06:08,897 --> 00:06:11,657 Speaker 1: buy in that they have made into ESG and DEI. 104 00:06:12,017 --> 00:06:14,417 Speaker 1: But that is not the way to make safe airplanes. 105 00:06:14,737 --> 00:06:17,137 Speaker 1: We've already seen this happen. There is an Atlas Air 106 00:06:17,217 --> 00:06:20,577 Speaker 1: flight in twenty nineteen that crashed near Houston, where both 107 00:06:20,657 --> 00:06:25,417 Speaker 1: pilots were, in my opinion, most likely there because of 108 00:06:25,457 --> 00:06:28,777 Speaker 1: the role they played in meeting diversity targets, not because 109 00:06:28,817 --> 00:06:31,457 Speaker 1: of their flight awareness or their success in training. And 110 00:06:31,457 --> 00:06:34,377 Speaker 1: both have failed out of training. So this is a 111 00:06:34,537 --> 00:06:37,497 Speaker 1: real issue. And it's not just for companies like Disney, 112 00:06:37,497 --> 00:06:39,977 Speaker 1: which you're performing miserably. I mean, at least a theme 113 00:06:40,017 --> 00:06:42,497 Speaker 1: part can't fall out of the sky. But I'm not 114 00:06:42,497 --> 00:06:44,417 Speaker 1: so sure you'd want to go ride those roller coasters 115 00:06:44,497 --> 00:06:46,297 Speaker 1: right now, because you're going to have a whole bunch 116 00:06:46,297 --> 00:06:48,497 Speaker 1: of people who are not qualified in jobs that are 117 00:06:48,577 --> 00:06:51,137 Speaker 1: very demanding and very technical. And this is not just 118 00:06:51,177 --> 00:06:53,577 Speaker 1: going to impact Boeing, It's going to impact our whole country. 119 00:06:53,937 --> 00:06:55,857 Speaker 2: I want to ask you about how the shareholders you 120 00:06:55,897 --> 00:06:58,697 Speaker 2: think of some of the companies out there have every 121 00:06:58,777 --> 00:07:01,177 Speaker 2: at you know, whether we're talking about Budweiser or Disney 122 00:07:01,257 --> 00:07:02,937 Speaker 2: or you know what's going on with Boeing. We'll get 123 00:07:02,977 --> 00:07:05,857 Speaker 2: to this though in one second. You know, is there 124 00:07:05,857 --> 00:07:08,497 Speaker 2: a change coming to the US dollar this year? Well, 125 00:07:08,537 --> 00:07:12,297 Speaker 2: According to former Walls insider Tikachuwari, he very much thinks 126 00:07:12,337 --> 00:07:15,377 Speaker 2: it could happen as soon as this year. He thinks 127 00:07:15,417 --> 00:07:17,377 Speaker 2: the biggest risk to Americans is not the war in 128 00:07:17,457 --> 00:07:20,617 Speaker 2: Ukraine spreading even further out of control, or some kind 129 00:07:20,617 --> 00:07:23,777 Speaker 2: of a conflagration in the Middle East, but the security 130 00:07:23,817 --> 00:07:26,537 Speaker 2: instability of the US dollar. And he's so adamant on 131 00:07:26,577 --> 00:07:29,177 Speaker 2: this point that he's published a video with all the details, 132 00:07:29,217 --> 00:07:31,737 Speaker 2: including how you might prepare go to move your cash 133 00:07:31,777 --> 00:07:34,137 Speaker 2: now dot com to learn the three steps you need 134 00:07:34,177 --> 00:07:36,537 Speaker 2: to partake to protect and grow your wealth in the 135 00:07:36,537 --> 00:07:39,057 Speaker 2: coming months. In a year that's moved your cash now 136 00:07:39,097 --> 00:07:41,017 Speaker 2: dot com, or you could end up holding a bunch 137 00:07:41,017 --> 00:07:42,657 Speaker 2: of dollars that are worth a lot less than they 138 00:07:42,657 --> 00:07:46,217 Speaker 2: are now paid for by Palm Beach Research Group. All right, Porter, 139 00:07:46,697 --> 00:07:48,897 Speaker 2: the it feels like in the last year or so, 140 00:07:48,937 --> 00:07:50,657 Speaker 2: I mean you wrote this piece. I saw the piece, 141 00:07:50,697 --> 00:07:52,977 Speaker 2: and you know we revisited it today. I mean I 142 00:07:53,017 --> 00:07:54,937 Speaker 2: saw you saw it when it came out. You visited 143 00:07:54,977 --> 00:07:57,777 Speaker 2: today about Boeing and what's going on there as a 144 00:07:58,057 --> 00:08:01,097 Speaker 2: corporate culture. But we've had a number of very high 145 00:08:01,177 --> 00:08:05,897 Speaker 2: profile instances, whether it's the backlash at Budweiser a lot 146 00:08:05,937 --> 00:08:09,497 Speaker 2: of pressure on Disney. When does corporate America you think, 147 00:08:09,577 --> 00:08:12,537 Speaker 2: start to listen to the voices out there that are 148 00:08:12,577 --> 00:08:16,097 Speaker 2: shouting stop doing things that aren't about good business but 149 00:08:16,217 --> 00:08:20,617 Speaker 2: you think are about good social justice. 150 00:08:21,417 --> 00:08:24,617 Speaker 1: Well, I think that there's a lot of reasons for 151 00:08:24,697 --> 00:08:27,457 Speaker 1: investors to have made that decision already, and I think 152 00:08:27,537 --> 00:08:30,537 Speaker 1: that's happening. But I think you're going to see something further, 153 00:08:31,017 --> 00:08:34,737 Speaker 1: which is when planes start crashing, When when Disney theme 154 00:08:34,777 --> 00:08:37,497 Speaker 1: starts fall apart. You know, there's there's worse things that 155 00:08:37,497 --> 00:08:40,177 Speaker 1: can happen than a failed movie. There's worse things that 156 00:08:40,217 --> 00:08:43,937 Speaker 1: can happen. Then, you know, changing the the snow White 157 00:08:44,297 --> 00:08:46,857 Speaker 1: film to become a you know, a play on diversity, 158 00:08:47,337 --> 00:08:50,697 Speaker 1: and those things are going to impact our entire economy. 159 00:08:52,297 --> 00:08:55,297 Speaker 1: It's it's it's I think when when this stuff, when 160 00:08:55,297 --> 00:08:58,617 Speaker 1: this rot gets into health and safety, that's when you're 161 00:08:58,657 --> 00:09:01,417 Speaker 1: going to see a really big political shift. And the 162 00:09:01,497 --> 00:09:04,137 Speaker 1: chieft is already underway when it comes to Boeing, though 163 00:09:04,257 --> 00:09:07,377 Speaker 1: buck let me tell you how I found the problem, 164 00:09:07,897 --> 00:09:09,817 Speaker 1: because you might you might not remember, but I first 165 00:09:09,817 --> 00:09:13,217 Speaker 1: started writing about this a year ago in January of 166 00:09:13,257 --> 00:09:17,057 Speaker 1: twenty twenty three. And what I said back then was 167 00:09:17,057 --> 00:09:21,137 Speaker 1: that Boeing stock was going to collapse. And I said 168 00:09:21,177 --> 00:09:24,857 Speaker 1: that not because I suspected that the planes to start 169 00:09:24,897 --> 00:09:27,897 Speaker 1: falling out of the sky necessarily, but that I saw 170 00:09:27,937 --> 00:09:31,177 Speaker 1: that the entire engineering culture had been gutted and it 171 00:09:31,257 --> 00:09:34,377 Speaker 1: had been replaced, first of all, with accountants from GE. 172 00:09:34,977 --> 00:09:37,417 Speaker 1: And what they know how to do is wreck corporate 173 00:09:37,457 --> 00:09:39,217 Speaker 1: balance sheets. That's what they did to GE and that's 174 00:09:39,217 --> 00:09:41,417 Speaker 1: why I recommended shorting the stock for so many years. 175 00:09:42,017 --> 00:09:44,097 Speaker 1: They did exactly the same thing. The two people who 176 00:09:44,097 --> 00:09:46,657 Speaker 1: are running Boeing now, both the CEO and the CFO, 177 00:09:46,777 --> 00:09:50,297 Speaker 1: are veterans of G's finance group, and they do the 178 00:09:50,337 --> 00:09:54,377 Speaker 1: exact same playbook. What did they do. They took Boeing 179 00:09:54,417 --> 00:09:56,977 Speaker 1: from a company that had net cash on its balance 180 00:09:57,017 --> 00:10:00,137 Speaker 1: sheet to a company that now has fifty two billion 181 00:10:00,257 --> 00:10:03,217 Speaker 1: dollars in debt, and that's including net debt of over 182 00:10:03,297 --> 00:10:07,457 Speaker 1: forty billion dollars. They've got to refinance about twenty five 183 00:10:07,617 --> 00:10:10,737 Speaker 1: billion of that in the next two years. And because 184 00:10:10,777 --> 00:10:14,137 Speaker 1: of the safety issues of their planes, they're also facing 185 00:10:14,177 --> 00:10:18,777 Speaker 1: the potential downgrade into junct bond status if that happens, 186 00:10:18,777 --> 00:10:21,017 Speaker 1: their interest expenses are going to soar, and there's a 187 00:10:21,097 --> 00:10:24,897 Speaker 1: real risk that the company could go bankrupt. Nobody sees that, 188 00:10:25,377 --> 00:10:27,617 Speaker 1: but that's what we were talking about a year ago, 189 00:10:27,897 --> 00:10:31,097 Speaker 1: and we updated that short call in December on the 190 00:10:31,097 --> 00:10:34,737 Speaker 1: twenty second, about three weeks ago. So I just want 191 00:10:34,777 --> 00:10:37,017 Speaker 1: you to realize that my work on Boeing is not 192 00:10:37,097 --> 00:10:40,137 Speaker 1: about this latest news thing. It's about the fact that 193 00:10:40,217 --> 00:10:42,417 Speaker 1: for the last five or six years they've been building 194 00:10:42,457 --> 00:10:45,537 Speaker 1: shoddy aircraft and their balance sheet has been destroyed by 195 00:10:45,537 --> 00:10:48,537 Speaker 1: their leadership. And that's why I started focusing on it, 196 00:10:48,577 --> 00:10:51,257 Speaker 1: because the bad choices I could see looking at the 197 00:10:51,297 --> 00:10:54,097 Speaker 1: finances of the company have also flowed through now to 198 00:10:54,137 --> 00:10:56,697 Speaker 1: the engineering of the company. It's a very serious matter, 199 00:10:56,857 --> 00:10:59,577 Speaker 1: not just for Boeing shareholders, but also for the bond 200 00:10:59,657 --> 00:11:02,257 Speaker 1: markets and for our country's transportation networks. 201 00:11:03,257 --> 00:11:06,297 Speaker 2: What do you think the future then holds for not 202 00:11:06,377 --> 00:11:09,577 Speaker 2: just Boeing, but the US aerospace industry in general if 203 00:11:09,577 --> 00:11:12,017 Speaker 2: this has happened. I mean, I know, for example, you're 204 00:11:12,057 --> 00:11:14,497 Speaker 2: talking about the people that make the planes. Well, I 205 00:11:14,577 --> 00:11:17,657 Speaker 2: know a bit about people who go into the planes. 206 00:11:18,097 --> 00:11:20,537 Speaker 2: I have friends and colleagues who you know, got a 207 00:11:20,537 --> 00:11:23,057 Speaker 2: lot of people former military. They become the airline pilots 208 00:11:23,097 --> 00:11:25,137 Speaker 2: are the ones flying these things, and they say the 209 00:11:25,177 --> 00:11:29,017 Speaker 2: DEI wokeness problem. I mean, look, United is bragging about 210 00:11:29,017 --> 00:11:32,617 Speaker 2: how they have changed, you know, the incoming class of 211 00:11:32,617 --> 00:11:35,377 Speaker 2: pilots to be more diverse. But I also know that 212 00:11:35,417 --> 00:11:37,777 Speaker 2: the training programs that pilots are going through so they 213 00:11:37,777 --> 00:11:41,057 Speaker 2: can meet the standards necessary for training are being lowered. 214 00:11:41,057 --> 00:11:44,537 Speaker 2: That is happening. So the people that are moving the plane, 215 00:11:44,577 --> 00:11:47,377 Speaker 2: you're telling me that the people making the planes are 216 00:11:47,417 --> 00:11:51,537 Speaker 2: losing a step or ten. And the people piloting the 217 00:11:51,577 --> 00:11:54,737 Speaker 2: planes right now are also not the same caliber than 218 00:11:54,777 --> 00:11:56,577 Speaker 2: what people have been used to for a long time. 219 00:11:58,137 --> 00:12:01,137 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a very serious matter. And again, if you 220 00:12:01,217 --> 00:12:04,297 Speaker 1: look at the kind of people that United has been 221 00:12:04,417 --> 00:12:07,737 Speaker 1: using to fill their new pilot academy, right they have 222 00:12:07,857 --> 00:12:12,257 Speaker 1: intentionally partnered with some of the lowest performing schools in 223 00:12:12,257 --> 00:12:15,697 Speaker 1: the country in terms of SAT scores and academic achievement 224 00:12:16,017 --> 00:12:21,617 Speaker 1: because they're the right color. That's just racism. And you 225 00:12:21,657 --> 00:12:24,937 Speaker 1: know when you combine racism and Marxism, you're not going 226 00:12:24,977 --> 00:12:27,697 Speaker 1: to improve the Marxist track record. 227 00:12:28,137 --> 00:12:30,217 Speaker 2: Well, also, you know, we can, finally, I think, have 228 00:12:30,857 --> 00:12:34,777 Speaker 2: a discussion about merit and standards and hiring in a 229 00:12:34,777 --> 00:12:37,217 Speaker 2: more direct way than in a long time porter because 230 00:12:37,257 --> 00:12:40,137 Speaker 2: the Supreme Court came out and said, Okay, you guys 231 00:12:40,137 --> 00:12:43,057 Speaker 2: at Harvard, which is a whole other conversation, what's going 232 00:12:43,097 --> 00:12:44,977 Speaker 2: on there, But you guys at Harvard have been just 233 00:12:45,017 --> 00:12:47,897 Speaker 2: straight up discriminating against Asian kids. That was what got 234 00:12:47,897 --> 00:12:52,017 Speaker 2: this whole thing started. That's unconstitutional, that's illegal. You can't 235 00:12:52,057 --> 00:12:55,177 Speaker 2: actually do that, and you can't continue this system of 236 00:12:55,217 --> 00:12:57,697 Speaker 2: pretending you're not discriminating by race when you are. Well, 237 00:12:57,697 --> 00:13:00,417 Speaker 2: that's in college admissions. But it's starting now to filter 238 00:13:00,497 --> 00:13:06,337 Speaker 2: I think through the broader American political and an economic landscape, 239 00:13:06,657 --> 00:13:08,497 Speaker 2: which is a good thing. But I think we're just 240 00:13:08,497 --> 00:13:10,257 Speaker 2: in the early early stages this. 241 00:13:11,417 --> 00:13:13,497 Speaker 1: Sorry I didn't mean interrupt, but I just want you to say, 242 00:13:13,737 --> 00:13:15,897 Speaker 1: hasn't this been the kind of thing that for many 243 00:13:16,017 --> 00:13:19,737 Speaker 1: years people smiled in grandad and said, yes, you know, yes, yes, 244 00:13:19,817 --> 00:13:22,737 Speaker 1: we're all in favor of equal opportunity, and we are right. 245 00:13:22,777 --> 00:13:24,777 Speaker 1: But no one took it. No one took the idea 246 00:13:24,857 --> 00:13:27,937 Speaker 1: seriously that you would get a guy who couldn't even 247 00:13:29,257 --> 00:13:34,817 Speaker 1: legitimately gain admission to a competitive university and tell him 248 00:13:35,137 --> 00:13:38,257 Speaker 1: with a couple of months of pilot training. He's now 249 00:13:38,337 --> 00:13:42,337 Speaker 1: going to be captive captaining you know, a United aircraft 250 00:13:42,377 --> 00:13:46,177 Speaker 1: with two hundred people on board like that. There is 251 00:13:46,217 --> 00:13:49,097 Speaker 1: there is such an absolute, utter lack of judgment. There 252 00:13:49,137 --> 00:13:53,097 Speaker 1: is such a disparity between the theory of DEI or 253 00:13:53,457 --> 00:13:56,857 Speaker 1: ESG and the reality of engineering and flight, and those 254 00:13:56,897 --> 00:13:59,217 Speaker 1: two things are on a conclusion conclusion course. But let 255 00:13:59,217 --> 00:14:00,777 Speaker 1: me just give you a couple of data points to 256 00:14:00,817 --> 00:14:03,777 Speaker 1: make this a little bit more objective. If you were 257 00:14:03,897 --> 00:14:06,937 Speaker 1: in charge of Boeing and you knew that your your 258 00:14:06,977 --> 00:14:10,777 Speaker 1: cumulative net income over the past three years is minus 259 00:14:10,897 --> 00:14:15,617 Speaker 1: twenty billion dollars, and that your twelve month interest expense 260 00:14:15,697 --> 00:14:18,017 Speaker 1: currently is two and a half billion dollars a year, 261 00:14:18,657 --> 00:14:22,697 Speaker 1: and you knew that your credit rating was one notch 262 00:14:22,857 --> 00:14:28,617 Speaker 1: above junk status at Fitch and SMP is, the last 263 00:14:28,617 --> 00:14:31,577 Speaker 1: thing that you would do is to let a door 264 00:14:31,617 --> 00:14:34,777 Speaker 1: fly off of your plane in mid flight. My point 265 00:14:34,777 --> 00:14:37,857 Speaker 1: about all this is the people running the company have 266 00:14:38,017 --> 00:14:40,817 Speaker 1: such poor judgment they can't even run the company. And 267 00:14:40,857 --> 00:14:44,337 Speaker 1: by the way, Bones one of only two major aircraft 268 00:14:44,417 --> 00:14:48,697 Speaker 1: manufacturers in the world, and it is a dominant defense contractor. 269 00:14:48,897 --> 00:14:50,777 Speaker 1: There's plenty of margin to be made in all those 270 00:14:50,777 --> 00:14:54,537 Speaker 1: defense contracts. So how do these guys lose twenty billion 271 00:14:54,577 --> 00:14:57,257 Speaker 1: dollars in the last three years alone, and how did 272 00:14:57,297 --> 00:14:59,697 Speaker 1: they run their balance sheet just in the last five 273 00:14:59,777 --> 00:15:05,417 Speaker 1: years from net cash positive to forty two billion roughly 274 00:15:05,537 --> 00:15:10,297 Speaker 1: and net debt. This is I mean, it's almost is 275 00:15:10,337 --> 00:15:14,177 Speaker 1: if somebody was deliberately trying to destroy this company, because 276 00:15:14,217 --> 00:15:17,817 Speaker 1: you can't make decisions this bad if you weren't trying. 277 00:15:17,537 --> 00:15:21,137 Speaker 2: To port I want to ask you about a different 278 00:15:21,177 --> 00:15:24,057 Speaker 2: kind of landing, the overall landing that people are saying 279 00:15:24,217 --> 00:15:26,297 Speaker 2: might be soft or not for the economy in twenty 280 00:15:26,297 --> 00:15:28,217 Speaker 2: twenty four, which is going to affect the political landscape. 281 00:15:28,217 --> 00:15:30,257 Speaker 2: I just wanted to get your broad thoughts on that 282 00:15:30,577 --> 00:15:32,417 Speaker 2: in a moment. But first up, you know, a lot 283 00:15:32,417 --> 00:15:34,097 Speaker 2: of us are trying to get our finances in order, 284 00:15:34,137 --> 00:15:36,377 Speaker 2: and there's some great news for homeowners.

So if you've been buried 287 00:15:40,697 --> 00:15:42,617 Speaker 2: in high interest credit card debt, now is the time 288 00:15:42,657 --> 00:15:45,497 Speaker 2: to break free.

Here, what are you 306 00:16:30,097 --> 00:16:32,817 Speaker 2: seeing for next year? Because it feels like the Fed's 307 00:16:32,897 --> 00:16:38,777 Speaker 2: telling us here, Jerome Pal everybody, we win, rates coming down, inflation, 308 00:16:38,977 --> 00:16:42,537 Speaker 2: beaten markets, fine, nothing to see here, no problem? 309 00:16:42,577 --> 00:16:46,137 Speaker 1: What are you seeing? I think that inflation is going 310 00:16:46,177 --> 00:16:49,977 Speaker 1: to be intractable and very difficult to beat because of 311 00:16:50,017 --> 00:16:52,897 Speaker 1: the size of the fiscal deficits the United States. If 312 00:16:52,937 --> 00:16:55,217 Speaker 1: the federal government was able to snap its fingers and 313 00:16:55,417 --> 00:16:59,217 Speaker 1: double double the amount of income tax it collects, it'd 314 00:16:59,217 --> 00:17:04,297 Speaker 1: still be running a deficit. And you've got deficits at 315 00:17:04,297 --> 00:17:08,217 Speaker 1: that size. I just don't believe they can be financed 316 00:17:08,257 --> 00:17:11,497 Speaker 1: through to legitimate means, which means you're gonna have eventually 317 00:17:11,937 --> 00:17:16,057 Speaker 1: more interest rate manipulation, more bond market manipulation, and more 318 00:17:16,057 --> 00:17:18,577 Speaker 1: money printing. It's just a matter of time. And all 319 00:17:18,577 --> 00:17:20,777 Speaker 1: they've done so far really is just change the name 320 00:17:20,857 --> 00:17:22,937 Speaker 1: of what they're calling the MOUNTI printing. You know, they 321 00:17:23,017 --> 00:17:29,737 Speaker 1: used to call it. What do they call it? Easing? Yes, easying? Yeah, sorry, 322 00:17:30,417 --> 00:17:32,897 Speaker 1: there's so much jargon now I can't keep up with 323 00:17:32,937 --> 00:17:35,937 Speaker 1: it all. But the new way that they're doing it 324 00:17:35,977 --> 00:17:38,657 Speaker 1: is they've just been printing money and handing to banks 325 00:17:39,177 --> 00:17:42,737 Speaker 1: that have underwater bond portfolios. So there's something right now 326 00:17:42,777 --> 00:17:47,017 Speaker 1: in the order of seven hundred billion dollars plus worth 327 00:17:47,057 --> 00:17:50,497 Speaker 1: of losses and the banks on their bond portfolios, and 328 00:17:50,617 --> 00:17:52,897 Speaker 1: rather than accept any of those losses and have a 329 00:17:52,977 --> 00:17:55,417 Speaker 1: run on the banking system, the Federal Reserve is just 330 00:17:55,457 --> 00:17:58,297 Speaker 1: printing up money and then giving it to those banks 331 00:17:58,617 --> 00:18:01,537 Speaker 1: as collateral at par so that they don't have to 332 00:18:01,537 --> 00:18:03,177 Speaker 1: suffer the losses that they have. 333 00:18:03,257 --> 00:18:06,777 Speaker 2: Actually, so the banks are effectively hiding losses because they 334 00:18:06,777 --> 00:18:08,617 Speaker 2: got on the wrong side. So what we saw with 335 00:18:09,377 --> 00:18:12,137 Speaker 2: Silicon Valk, for example, people say, hold on a second, 336 00:18:12,177 --> 00:18:15,137 Speaker 2: is this a problem elsewhere? You're telling me you think 337 00:18:15,177 --> 00:18:16,897 Speaker 2: it absolutely is a problem elsewhere. 338 00:18:17,377 --> 00:18:20,057 Speaker 1: Yeah. Absolutely. I mean, if you look at Bank of America, 339 00:18:20,177 --> 00:18:22,857 Speaker 1: just as one example, Bank of America is the largest pository, 340 00:18:22,857 --> 00:18:26,937 Speaker 1: it's the United States. Its entire tangible equity capital be 341 00:18:26,937 --> 00:18:28,697 Speaker 1: wiped out if it had to, if it had to 342 00:18:28,777 --> 00:18:31,657 Speaker 1: write to market where its bond portfolio is. And the 343 00:18:31,697 --> 00:18:34,697 Speaker 1: reason why is because it made enormous investments in bonds 344 00:18:35,017 --> 00:18:37,777 Speaker 1: during the COVID bubble when interest rates are very, very low, 345 00:18:38,017 --> 00:18:40,057 Speaker 1: and then of course the FED had to raise rates 346 00:18:40,057 --> 00:18:42,457 Speaker 1: to stop the resulting inflation from all the money printing 347 00:18:42,497 --> 00:18:45,617 Speaker 1: that they did. So you know, the whole banking system 348 00:18:45,657 --> 00:18:49,257 Speaker 1: is just inside out and there is no way that 349 00:18:49,297 --> 00:18:52,777 Speaker 1: the FED is going to be able to By the way, 350 00:18:52,777 --> 00:18:55,817 Speaker 1: the FED doesn't even want to actually stop inflation. The 351 00:18:55,857 --> 00:18:58,537 Speaker 1: FED wants inflation to be three to four percent a 352 00:18:58,577 --> 00:19:01,017 Speaker 1: year so that they can print print their way out 353 00:19:01,017 --> 00:19:03,297 Speaker 1: of all these government obligations that they can't meet and 354 00:19:03,337 --> 00:19:06,057 Speaker 1: so that they can keep the banking system liquid. And 355 00:19:06,137 --> 00:19:08,937 Speaker 1: so I think that all the talk you're hearing about 356 00:19:10,177 --> 00:19:13,697 Speaker 1: the possibility of deflation or the possibility of a recession 357 00:19:13,697 --> 00:19:17,377 Speaker 1: in terms of nominal GDP as mallarchy, you're not going 358 00:19:17,417 --> 00:19:21,377 Speaker 1: to see any kind of actual recession because they're going 359 00:19:21,417 --> 00:19:23,217 Speaker 1: to print so much money and there is so much 360 00:19:23,257 --> 00:19:26,537 Speaker 1: deficit spending that in nominal terms, the GDP growth is 361 00:19:26,537 --> 00:19:29,097 Speaker 1: going to be probably between four and six percent over 362 00:19:29,137 --> 00:19:31,657 Speaker 1: the next three or four years at least. And how 363 00:19:31,657 --> 00:19:33,537 Speaker 1: will they do that, Well, they just deal with government 364 00:19:33,617 --> 00:19:35,857 Speaker 1: spending and they print the money to do it. So 365 00:19:35,897 --> 00:19:38,217 Speaker 1: that's going to have a really big impact on people's wages. 366 00:19:38,257 --> 00:19:41,577 Speaker 1: And you've already seen that happening, and that's a giant problem. 367 00:19:41,657 --> 00:19:43,417 Speaker 2: And what's your take, border, I mean, you've been watching 368 00:19:43,417 --> 00:19:46,137 Speaker 2: this stuff for a long time. So CPI they measure 369 00:19:46,137 --> 00:19:48,817 Speaker 2: inflation and they tell us that you know, it's not 370 00:19:48,937 --> 00:19:51,097 Speaker 2: bad if you take what food and energy out of it, 371 00:19:51,177 --> 00:19:53,777 Speaker 2: right like so if you need to eat or heat 372 00:19:53,817 --> 00:19:55,497 Speaker 2: your home or put gas in your car or whatever. 373 00:19:55,577 --> 00:19:56,497 Speaker 2: I mean, it's the middle of the winter in a 374 00:19:56,537 --> 00:19:59,537 Speaker 2: lot of places. Other than that, they say inflation is 375 00:19:59,577 --> 00:20:00,097 Speaker 2: not that bad. 376 00:20:01,377 --> 00:20:03,417 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, you know, I like to use real world 377 00:20:03,417 --> 00:20:07,377 Speaker 1: things for for pricing. And if you go and look, 378 00:20:07,417 --> 00:20:11,977 Speaker 1: for example, at how many how many minimum wage hours 379 00:20:12,017 --> 00:20:14,697 Speaker 1: you have to work to purchase a Ford F one fifty, 380 00:20:14,737 --> 00:20:17,897 Speaker 1: which is the most popular, you know, vehicle in the 381 00:20:17,977 --> 00:20:20,537 Speaker 1: United States and has been for most of my lifetime. 382 00:20:21,217 --> 00:20:24,577 Speaker 1: You know, the hours worked has has doubled or tripled, 383 00:20:25,017 --> 00:20:27,177 Speaker 1: and the price of the S one fifty that you 384 00:20:27,217 --> 00:20:29,977 Speaker 1: can buy at the dealer, I would guess it's up 385 00:20:30,017 --> 00:20:32,857 Speaker 1: fifty percent in the last ten years at least. So, 386 00:20:33,577 --> 00:20:36,337 Speaker 1: you know, we can argue about CPI we want, but 387 00:20:36,657 --> 00:20:38,857 Speaker 1: it has nothing to do with the impact of these 388 00:20:38,857 --> 00:20:42,897 Speaker 1: policies on real people's wages and buck. The saddest part 389 00:20:42,977 --> 00:20:46,617 Speaker 1: for me is the people who are suffering the most 390 00:20:46,897 --> 00:20:50,017 Speaker 1: from these kinds of policies and from DEI and from 391 00:20:50,257 --> 00:20:52,697 Speaker 1: ESG and all this stuff to defund the police, all 392 00:20:52,737 --> 00:20:55,497 Speaker 1: this stuff. The people who suffer the most are the 393 00:20:55,537 --> 00:20:59,457 Speaker 1: people who keep voting for it. It's not hard for 394 00:20:59,457 --> 00:21:01,817 Speaker 1: people like me and you to protect ourselves from inflation. 395 00:21:01,897 --> 00:21:04,417 Speaker 1: We go buy a property, We go buy gold, which 396 00:21:04,417 --> 00:21:07,137 Speaker 1: you can now buy at Costco, which I think is great. 397 00:21:07,297 --> 00:21:10,257 Speaker 1: You know, we go buy bitcoin, we go invest in 398 00:21:10,337 --> 00:21:12,657 Speaker 1: high quality stocks, which we have the training to do, 399 00:21:13,257 --> 00:21:16,577 Speaker 1: and inflation just keeps us floating along. But for the 400 00:21:16,617 --> 00:21:19,337 Speaker 1: people that we employ to you know, to take care 401 00:21:19,377 --> 00:21:22,057 Speaker 1: of our houses and our kids, and to teach school 402 00:21:22,137 --> 00:21:24,497 Speaker 1: and to do the plumbing and the electrical work. All 403 00:21:24,537 --> 00:21:28,017 Speaker 1: the people who actually work in this economy, they're getting 404 00:21:28,097 --> 00:21:32,777 Speaker 1: destroyed there. They're real wages keep going down at three 405 00:21:32,817 --> 00:21:35,537 Speaker 1: to four percent a year, and that doesn't take long 406 00:21:35,617 --> 00:21:38,297 Speaker 1: before you can't afford any kind of standal living. And 407 00:21:38,377 --> 00:21:40,697 Speaker 1: so when societies do that, what happens. You see a 408 00:21:40,777 --> 00:21:44,337 Speaker 1: huge uptick in gambling. You see that in America, the 409 00:21:44,657 --> 00:21:47,457 Speaker 1: enormous rise of online gambling is startling. You see a 410 00:21:47,497 --> 00:21:50,657 Speaker 1: big increase in prostitution because people can't make a living 411 00:21:50,697 --> 00:21:53,297 Speaker 1: in a you know, in a reputable way, so they 412 00:21:53,337 --> 00:21:56,257 Speaker 1: go into that Look at the what's it called the 413 00:21:56,297 --> 00:21:58,937 Speaker 1: Only Fans site where you have every college girl America 414 00:21:59,017 --> 00:22:02,457 Speaker 1: taken off for clothes to make some bitcoin. And the 415 00:22:02,537 --> 00:22:04,577 Speaker 1: other things that you see, of course, are just a 416 00:22:04,617 --> 00:22:07,057 Speaker 1: general breakdown of law and order. You can't even go 417 00:22:07,097 --> 00:22:08,817 Speaker 1: in a drug store anymore and buy deodor, and it's 418 00:22:08,857 --> 00:22:13,497 Speaker 1: all locked up. When or if ever are Americans going 419 00:22:13,577 --> 00:22:15,897 Speaker 1: to say enough of this. We need to have sound 420 00:22:15,937 --> 00:22:19,657 Speaker 1: money and have a return to a real legitimate free 421 00:22:19,697 --> 00:22:22,137 Speaker 1: market system. You know, I don't know the answer to 422 00:22:22,217 --> 00:22:23,937 Speaker 1: that question, but it didn't get me any time soon. 423 00:22:23,937 --> 00:22:26,017 Speaker 1: Not nless people are willing to default on government debt. 424 00:22:26,217 --> 00:22:28,617 Speaker 2: Got to tell you it's classic because you're talking about 425 00:22:28,697 --> 00:22:31,177 Speaker 2: the cost of energy and people being able to forward 426 00:22:31,217 --> 00:22:34,017 Speaker 2: their bills.
