WEBVTT - Single Best Idea with Tom Keene: Jamie Dimon & Constance Hunter

0:00:02.400 --> 0:00:15.200
<v Speaker 1>Bloomberg Audio Studios, podcasts, radio news, single best idea. It

0:00:15.240 --> 0:00:17.279
<v Speaker 1>seems like we've been you know, it's like we're ending

0:00:17.320 --> 0:00:19.560
<v Speaker 1>the year. I mean it May has been exhausting so

0:00:19.680 --> 0:00:22.599
<v Speaker 1>far in a good way. I just can't say enough

0:00:22.640 --> 0:00:26.200
<v Speaker 1>about the conversation day today. There's a lot of somebody

0:00:26.239 --> 0:00:27.880
<v Speaker 1>stopped me on the street the other day they said,

0:00:27.880 --> 0:00:29.640
<v Speaker 1>how do you do this? Like are you booking people?

0:00:29.680 --> 0:00:32.920
<v Speaker 1>And you know all that? And I can't say enough

0:00:33.479 --> 0:00:35.839
<v Speaker 1>how I learned years ago doing this when I invented

0:00:35.840 --> 0:00:40.760
<v Speaker 1>this with Emily. The basic idea here is massive delegation

0:00:40.840 --> 0:00:44.760
<v Speaker 1>of authority and I have no idea. It's six point

0:00:44.760 --> 0:00:48.560
<v Speaker 1>fifty nine who's on the show. That's when I learn

0:00:48.800 --> 0:00:50.360
<v Speaker 1>and that's why I want it. And you know, every

0:00:50.360 --> 0:00:52.040
<v Speaker 1>once in a while there's somebody who are like, why

0:00:52.080 --> 0:00:54.800
<v Speaker 1>are we doing this? But what you end up with

0:00:55.000 --> 0:00:59.760
<v Speaker 1>is this thickness of conversation bouncing around. And it's just

0:00:59.760 --> 0:01:02.040
<v Speaker 1>been so rich in May. It's just been you know,

0:01:02.120 --> 0:01:04.919
<v Speaker 1>the site selling May and go away mentally, go away

0:01:05.400 --> 0:01:07.960
<v Speaker 1>with an economics financial investment. I just don't get it

0:01:08.040 --> 0:01:10.760
<v Speaker 1>right now. Sweeney looks like a genius. Maybe we get

0:01:10.800 --> 0:01:13.000
<v Speaker 1>a forty thousand printed day on the doubt. We did

0:01:13.040 --> 0:01:14.800
<v Speaker 1>in the futures, but that doesn't count. We've got to

0:01:14.840 --> 0:01:18.520
<v Speaker 1>get it in a daily close. To be honest, there's

0:01:18.560 --> 0:01:21.800
<v Speaker 1>two technical ways you look at a close. There's the

0:01:21.959 --> 0:01:25.640
<v Speaker 1>daily close, which is gospel if you will. In a

0:01:25.680 --> 0:01:29.560
<v Speaker 1>lot of pros will take a longer time zone and

0:01:29.640 --> 0:01:34.840
<v Speaker 1>they look at a weekly close to Friday. This is ancient,

0:01:34.920 --> 0:01:38.160
<v Speaker 1>goes back before computers, frankly, so you look at a

0:01:38.160 --> 0:01:42.000
<v Speaker 1>weekly close. Can the Dow close at forty thousand on

0:01:42.080 --> 0:01:45.080
<v Speaker 1>a Friday? And that's a big deal as well. The

0:01:45.080 --> 0:01:49.280
<v Speaker 1>Bloomberg has a function called a roll roll where I

0:01:49.320 --> 0:01:53.480
<v Speaker 1>can pick a weekly close on a Tuesday or a

0:01:53.560 --> 0:01:56.440
<v Speaker 1>weekly close on a Thursday. I do that all the time,

0:01:57.040 --> 0:01:59.720
<v Speaker 1>sort of a blend of the two strategies. But can

0:01:59.760 --> 0:02:02.520
<v Speaker 1>we get the doubt forty thousand or SPX fifty three

0:02:02.600 --> 0:02:05.440
<v Speaker 1>hundred on a weekly close or a daily clothes We

0:02:05.520 --> 0:02:08.440
<v Speaker 1>did that with a record high in the SPX yesterday. Enough.

0:02:08.480 --> 0:02:11.760
<v Speaker 1>Sometimes there's just moments where you have to stop, what

0:02:11.880 --> 0:02:14.519
<v Speaker 1>a good time we've been having with David Solomon of

0:02:14.560 --> 0:02:17.440
<v Speaker 1>Golden Sex, Brian moynihan, Bank of American France, and Lacua

0:02:17.960 --> 0:02:23.079
<v Speaker 1>in Paris sort of a capitalism French Mclaus Sairey before

0:02:23.120 --> 0:02:27.239
<v Speaker 1>the Olympics in you know, Francy's talking to James Diamond

0:02:27.280 --> 0:02:30.160
<v Speaker 1>of JP Morgan and Jamie Diamond's going on, and she

0:02:30.320 --> 0:02:33.240
<v Speaker 1>drops the brick in the middle of the interview and says,

0:02:33.520 --> 0:02:38.440
<v Speaker 1>how about those lazy French people, Diamond finessing it like

0:02:38.520 --> 0:02:40.600
<v Speaker 1>only Jamie Diamond can do. Let's listen.

0:02:40.800 --> 0:02:43.080
<v Speaker 2>I hate total blank of Thames like that. I know

0:02:43.080 --> 0:02:45.760
<v Speaker 2>a lot of Europeans who work hard, but I think

0:02:45.960 --> 0:02:47.720
<v Speaker 2>when you see the thing about work hours, I think

0:02:47.760 --> 0:02:52.640
<v Speaker 2>it is somewhat true. Americans are hard working. Anywhere you

0:02:52.680 --> 0:02:54.880
<v Speaker 2>go around Americas is hard working. But I see that

0:02:54.960 --> 0:02:58.080
<v Speaker 2>here too, I don't think. And the innovation people you

0:02:58.080 --> 0:03:00.360
<v Speaker 2>meet through WILGHI just are of the innovation people in

0:03:00.400 --> 0:03:01.200
<v Speaker 2>the United States.

0:03:01.480 --> 0:03:04.040
<v Speaker 1>I heard one of his PR people offside mun Dieu

0:03:04.160 --> 0:03:08.079
<v Speaker 1>when Francine asks that here's the math on this, folks,

0:03:08.080 --> 0:03:10.000
<v Speaker 1>they actually looked it up once. And this goes back

0:03:10.040 --> 0:03:13.960
<v Speaker 1>to well Christine Legard as trade minister. I believe it

0:03:14.000 --> 0:03:17.080
<v Speaker 1>was for Sarcozzi or Terry Barton out of Orange and

0:03:17.120 --> 0:03:20.760
<v Speaker 1>Telecom was the I think the French finance minister goes

0:03:20.760 --> 0:03:25.200
<v Speaker 1>way back where I would reach researches. This is delicate topic. Obviously,

0:03:26.120 --> 0:03:31.040
<v Speaker 1>it's shocking how culturally they work less than we do,

0:03:32.360 --> 0:03:37.960
<v Speaker 1>but they get just as much done. Their productivity is

0:03:38.160 --> 0:03:42.680
<v Speaker 1>pretty much equal to what we do. And they're not

0:03:42.840 --> 0:03:46.360
<v Speaker 1>working like idiots like me, I mean Frankly and Francine

0:03:46.360 --> 0:03:49.040
<v Speaker 1>knows this. I mean Francine and I bust their chops

0:03:49.040 --> 0:03:51.120
<v Speaker 1>on this for years. But that was a great question.

0:03:51.200 --> 0:03:54.360
<v Speaker 1>It was great to hear Jamie Diamond finesse that answers.

0:03:54.360 --> 0:03:59.200
<v Speaker 1>He builds out a thousand employees in Paris, in France

0:03:59.320 --> 0:04:03.400
<v Speaker 1>as well. Huge conversation today. Of course, excuse me, all

0:04:03.400 --> 0:04:06.600
<v Speaker 1>of the markets off the FED. And I thought Constance

0:04:06.680 --> 0:04:11.040
<v Speaker 1>Hunter was particularly good at macro policy perspectives, working with

0:04:11.120 --> 0:04:14.400
<v Speaker 1>Juliet Cornado, and they're just looking at the back and

0:04:14.480 --> 0:04:17.120
<v Speaker 1>the fourth of the FED parlor game. We're gonna hear

0:04:17.200 --> 0:04:20.080
<v Speaker 1>a lot more of this to June twelfth, the next

0:04:20.080 --> 0:04:22.400
<v Speaker 1>FED meeting. Let's listen to Constance Hunter.

0:04:22.640 --> 0:04:24.479
<v Speaker 3>You would be surprised how many people thought that the

0:04:24.520 --> 0:04:26.839
<v Speaker 3>FED doesn't need to cut, that the economy is strong,

0:04:27.240 --> 0:04:30.360
<v Speaker 3>and it is this K shaped economy again, which makes

0:04:30.400 --> 0:04:32.680
<v Speaker 3>it very hard to interpret Right, If you're in the

0:04:32.680 --> 0:04:34.800
<v Speaker 3>top part of the K, you think, Wow, everything's great

0:04:34.839 --> 0:04:37.279
<v Speaker 3>that my stocks are up, I'm getting interest on my

0:04:37.320 --> 0:04:41.000
<v Speaker 3>savings in my with no risk, the economy is doing

0:04:41.040 --> 0:04:42.839
<v Speaker 3>really well, my house prices up. But if you're in

0:04:42.880 --> 0:04:45.760
<v Speaker 3>that bottom part of the K, you're like, Wow, my insurance,

0:04:45.760 --> 0:04:47.719
<v Speaker 3>my car insurance just went up, and I still need

0:04:47.760 --> 0:04:49.400
<v Speaker 3>my car to drive to work, and I don't have

0:04:49.440 --> 0:04:51.240
<v Speaker 3>the bandwidth to figure out how to push back on

0:04:51.279 --> 0:04:54.039
<v Speaker 3>this or shop for a different insurance carrier that's going

0:04:54.120 --> 0:04:55.880
<v Speaker 3>to give me the same coverage at a better rate. Right,

0:04:56.120 --> 0:04:58.159
<v Speaker 3>you're really under pressure if you're the bottom half of

0:04:58.160 --> 0:04:58.400
<v Speaker 3>that K.

0:04:58.960 --> 0:05:03.240
<v Speaker 1>That is the most accessible conversation of the week. You

0:05:03.279 --> 0:05:06.360
<v Speaker 1>know where I am on this, folks. I just I'm

0:05:06.480 --> 0:05:10.599
<v Speaker 1>sorry the lady Alan Meltzer. I can't aggregate in this

0:05:10.760 --> 0:05:14.440
<v Speaker 1>polarity of America. There was V shape blah blah blah,

0:05:14.480 --> 0:05:17.320
<v Speaker 1>and all the other jargon over the years. K shape

0:05:17.320 --> 0:05:20.120
<v Speaker 1>caps is that you go up the K to the halves.

0:05:20.360 --> 0:05:24.240
<v Speaker 1>The asset holders all doing well. They were all Walmart.

0:05:24.240 --> 0:05:26.800
<v Speaker 1>I guess it was. Well. Today there's a whole group

0:05:26.839 --> 0:05:30.640
<v Speaker 1>of people shopping at Walmart trying to figure out how

0:05:30.680 --> 0:05:33.920
<v Speaker 1>to stretch one hundred dollars. I mean, it's the polarity

0:05:33.920 --> 0:05:36.640
<v Speaker 1>in America to the election is extraordinary. I thought Constance

0:05:36.680 --> 0:05:39.680
<v Speaker 1>Hunter did a great job of explaining that we're on

0:05:39.760 --> 0:05:43.360
<v Speaker 1>Apple car Play on Android. We're building that out. Thank

0:05:43.400 --> 0:05:46.640
<v Speaker 1>you so much worldwide for choosing Apple car Play. It's

0:05:46.680 --> 0:05:49.040
<v Speaker 1>safer and better according to Apple. I guess it is.

0:05:49.440 --> 0:05:52.800
<v Speaker 1>I don't have it the Nash Rambler, just the voltage

0:05:52.880 --> 0:05:55.400
<v Speaker 1>or something off the battery and the what's the thing

0:05:55.440 --> 0:05:58.640
<v Speaker 1>called eric, the thing next to the battery, it's off

0:05:58.680 --> 0:06:02.080
<v Speaker 1>the engine. It's a cylinder shape. I can't remember what

0:06:02.120 --> 0:06:04.400
<v Speaker 1>it's called. Anyways, they told me I can't do here

0:06:04.560 --> 0:06:07.760
<v Speaker 1>Apple car playoff the mash, but you can and a

0:06:07.800 --> 0:06:09.719
<v Speaker 1>lot of new cars, and we say thank you for that.
