I'm Stephen Carroll and I'm Caroline Hick. 18 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,400 Speaker 1: Here all the stories that we're following today. The FAD 19 00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:16,800 Speaker 1: needs to continue raising rates if it wants to get 20 00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:19,880 Speaker 1: inflation onto a sustainable path. That's the view of two 21 00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:22,320 Speaker 1: of the bank's top decision makers, who say price rise 22 00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:25,759 Speaker 1: data is still coming in too hot. Federal Reserve Vice 23 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:29,800 Speaker 1: Chair Laole Brainard says more work is needed as we 24 00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:32,360 Speaker 1: move the policy rate closer to what we call a 25 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:36,880 Speaker 1: sufficiently restrictive level, taking into account the risks around both 26 00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:40,400 Speaker 1: our employment and inflation balls in parallel the balanty of 27 00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:43,480 Speaker 1: continuing to run off. That said, inflation remains by and 28 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:47,080 Speaker 1: policy is going to need to remain sufficiently restrictive for 29 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:49,600 Speaker 1: some times and make sure it gets down to superson 30 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:52,920 Speaker 1: on a sustained basis. He little. Bernard's view was supported 31 00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:55,040 Speaker 1: by the New York Fed President John Williams, who said 32 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:59,120 Speaker 1: officials have yet to complete their aggressive tightening campaign. While 33 00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 1: both policymakers notably chose not to take a view on 34 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:04,560 Speaker 1: where rates will peak, bond traders are increasingly betting the 35 00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:09,400 Speaker 1: Fed will stop short of five Inflation in Japan has 36 00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:12,519 Speaker 1: hit the highest level in more than four decades, adding 37 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,520 Speaker 1: to the pressure on the Bank of Japan. Consumer prices 38 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:18,760 Speaker 1: excluding fresh food rose four percent in December year on 39 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:23,360 Speaker 1: year as energy costs rose sharply. The data was in 40 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 1: line with expectations and comes just days after the boj 41 00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:30,120 Speaker 1: said that it would keep its yield curve control in place. 42 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 1: The central Bank now owns over half of all Japanese 43 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:36,680 Speaker 1: government bombs. On the final day of the World Economic 44 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:39,600 Speaker 1: Forum DAVAS, attendees say they are hopeful of a mild 45 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 1: recession this year. The positive tone reflects the surprising strength 46 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 1: of bank earnings and consumer resilience. Morgan Stanley CEO James 47 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:52,280 Speaker 1: Gorman summed up the optimism. There's clear evidence inflation has 48 00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:56,079 Speaker 1: in fact Peekedner is coming down. Right How quickly when 49 00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 1: the Fed will get us to two percent and win 50 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 1: remains the debate, but it's clear the slope of the 51 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:04,520 Speaker 1: line as positive is to everybody's favorite. And the second 52 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:08,640 Speaker 1: is not just the opening up of China, but China 53 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 1: has embraced the rest of the world more aggressively in 54 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:15,680 Speaker 1: the last few weeks, witnessed by the Vice Premier meeting 55 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:19,959 Speaker 1: with Treasure Secretary yelling but economists and we're damn beast 56 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,520 Speaker 1: than finance executives like Gorman. The i m F managing 57 00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 1: director Chrystlina Georgieva warned Davos elites are sleepwalking into crisis 58 00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:30,640 Speaker 1: as the Fund prepares to revise its global growth forecast 59 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:33,400 Speaker 1: and will have more from javas from Bloomberg's Francy Laquais 60 00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 1: in just a moment here In the UK, employers have 61 00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:39,120 Speaker 1: gone on a hiring spree. According to the Recruitment and 62 00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:43,800 Speaker 1: Employment Confederation, one hundred and eighty thousand new job vacancies 63 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 1: were added just in early twenty three. The data comes 64 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,560 Speaker 1: as the Business Secretary, Grant Shaps, visited Davos to make 65 00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 1: the case for UK investment. Here's what he told Bloomberg's 66 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 1: editor at large, Fancy Laquax. In the UK, we have 67 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 1: four of the ten best universities in the world, so 68 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 1: we have a lot of the science and technology in 69 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 1: glat Green Tech. We are open for business and we 70 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,480 Speaker 1: want to scale up Britain. The Business Secretary may be 71 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 1: optimistic about the outlook for the UK, but consumers are 72 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:16,760 Speaker 1: less so. Research firm JFK said that it's measure of 73 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:21,039 Speaker 1: consumer sentiment fell three points to minus forty five this month, 74 00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:25,279 Speaker 1: the first decline in four months. Incorporate News, Netflix CEO 75 00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:28,279 Speaker 1: read Hastings is stepping aside after two decades at the 76 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:31,040 Speaker 1: top of the firm he founded. Hastings is handing the 77 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 1: reins to deputies Ted Surrounders and Greg Peter's, but will 78 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:38,480 Speaker 1: remain as executive chairman, TV Executive and Hang CEO. John 79 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:42,240 Speaker 1: Klein says the road ahead looks bumpy. It's very, very 80 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 1: difficult for established incumbents to change a culture. But it 81 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 1: can be done, but it's a big mission. It's a 82 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:52,240 Speaker 1: little harder to do with three people at the top, 83 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:56,279 Speaker 1: which is what Netflix now has. John Klein was speaking 84 00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:59,359 Speaker 1: to Bloomberg after the streaming giant reported almost seven point 85 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:02,160 Speaker 1: seven milli and the subscribers in its latest quarter, well 86 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 1: ahead of analyst expectations. Netflix says the decision to offer 87 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:09,600 Speaker 1: a cheaper AD supported package has helped to boost growth, 88 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 1: and JP Morgan's Jamie Diamond says that working from home 89 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:17,479 Speaker 1: is no good for younger staff or bosses. More on 90 00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:20,719 Speaker 1: that story now from Bloomberg's Charlie Pellet. It is the 91 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:24,840 Speaker 1: Wall Street Titans latest salvo against remote work. In an 92 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:28,360 Speaker 1: interview from the World Economic Forum in Dubos on CNBC, 93 00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:32,279 Speaker 1: the JP Morgan CEO said, quote it doesn't work for 94 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:36,760 Speaker 1: young kids, or spontaneity or management. His comments come amid 95 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:40,880 Speaker 1: an industry wide slowdown in finance and increasing signs of 96 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 1: a recession, which has pushed big banks to slash bonuses, 97 00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:48,760 Speaker 1: cut jobs, and pause hiring in New York. Charlie Pellet 98 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 1: Bloomberg Daybreak Europe. So those are top stories this morning. 99 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:55,920 Speaker 1: I can't help but think if Jamie Diamond is talking 100 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:58,279 Speaker 1: about people not working from home, what he'd make of 101 00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 1: the latest days that we've had from Bear Room they're 102 00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 1: renting website, website in London, saying that more people are 103 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:05,840 Speaker 1: actually trying to rent out their spare rooms to try 104 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 1: and make ends meet, which might mean an end to 105 00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 1: their home offer space as well. If they're trying to 106 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:12,240 Speaker 1: kind of look at their soaring bills in January and 107 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:14,160 Speaker 1: trying to see how they can make and look at it. 108 00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:16,480 Speaker 1: It's a really it's a real issue. You know, I 109 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:18,800 Speaker 1: kind of been the only person on Zoom watching people, 110 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 1: you know, having to work from very very tight accommodation, 111 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 1: and yet do you have to balance with whether you 112 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 1: can easily get to work. Interesting the r m T 113 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:31,080 Speaker 1: when it comes to all the strike action on trains, 114 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:36,680 Speaker 1: they have now seen a best and final offer apparently, 115 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:39,719 Speaker 1: so for train drivers is going to be five percent 116 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:43,360 Speaker 1: backdated pay rise for two and then another four percent 117 00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 1: this year. The r m T Union says that they're 118 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:48,920 Speaker 1: going to have a think about it. Okay, well, well 119 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:52,239 Speaker 1: they're thinking about that coming up next. Don't expect tax cuts, 120 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:55,159 Speaker 1: the super rich fallout of love with Britain and labor 121 00:06:55,360 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 1: Labor is Davos charm offensive. Now for review on Blue 122 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:04,080 Speaker 1: Birthday Break Europe. The news you need to know from 123 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:07,520 Speaker 1: today's papers. So joining us this morning, Bluem Beggs and 124 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 1: Anne Garran's. Let's begin with the Financial Times. It has 125 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 1: the headline Jeremy Hunt wants not to expect tax cuts 126 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:18,480 Speaker 1: in the March budget. Yes, indeed, Caroline, good morning to you. 127 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 1: So some Conservatives want to start reducing taxes right now, 128 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 1: but the chancellors told those MPs that it would actually 129 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 1: be irresponsible to do so in as March budget. And 130 00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 1: this is at a time when inflation is so high. 131 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:38,440 Speaker 1: The newspaper says. Jeremy Hunt hopes that by the next 132 00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:42,520 Speaker 1: year inflation will be coming under control, which will allow 133 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:49,080 Speaker 1: a pre election giveaway, which is actually expected in autumn However, 134 00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 1: Tory strategists have also told the newspaper that a path 135 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:57,320 Speaker 1: to victory in the next general election is steep and narrow. 136 00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:00,280 Speaker 1: Hang on a second, Bloomberg's Joe mays As report did 137 00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 1: that Richie soon I told people up in Morecombe that 138 00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:05,679 Speaker 1: he wants to cut their tax Yeah, that's absolutely true. 139 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:08,040 Speaker 1: So he was up in Walcomb yesterday and this was 140 00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:11,480 Speaker 1: for the leveling up agenda that the Prime Minister was 141 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 1: dashing out cash for and the ft also, says Tory 142 00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:18,600 Speaker 1: strategist say the party will aim to show voters the 143 00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 1: economy has turned a corner and that brighter times do 144 00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 1: lie ahead. And Richie soonac did make it clear he 145 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 1: wants to cut taxes, but just not right now, okay. 146 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:32,840 Speaker 1: The Times meanwhile says the super rich falling out of 147 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:35,319 Speaker 1: love with Britain. Oh this is sad, isn't it. This 148 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 1: is not what we like to hear. Yes, a little 149 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:40,560 Speaker 1: bit less people, you know, living here. But the latest 150 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:43,680 Speaker 1: exodus continues. And this is really a trend that did 151 00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 1: begin after the Brexit vote in twenty sixteen, when thousands 152 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:52,200 Speaker 1: of millionaires left to the UK. Dozens of really well 153 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:57,320 Speaker 1: paid bankers were forced by the employees to relocate around Europe. 154 00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:00,319 Speaker 1: And according to data from Henley in Part, there's a 155 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:04,880 Speaker 1: further one thousand, four hundred high net worth individuals defined 156 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:08,600 Speaker 1: as those with wealth in the excess of one million 157 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 1: dollars and left to Britain. But really the hangover from 158 00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 1: the Brexit vote, okay, and perhaps no surprise and the 159 00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 1: EBA data that we had out yesterday showed almost two 160 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:23,920 Speaker 1: thousand million euro bankers over in Europe just this year. 161 00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:26,199 Speaker 1: So yeah, it's close to two thousand of those super 162 00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:30,600 Speaker 1: well paid and now in Europe. But if these very 163 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:33,440 Speaker 1: wealthy individuals don't like Britain, where are they going? Well, 164 00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:37,200 Speaker 1: they're going to greener pastures maybe, And these globe trotting 165 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:41,080 Speaker 1: millionaires have been tempted to go to places like the 166 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 1: Middle Eastern Asia instead of coming back here to the UK. 167 00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:50,280 Speaker 1: Maybe sunnier climates. It's the weather, definitely, alrightly. And in 168 00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:52,800 Speaker 1: the Guardian the headline is Kiir Starma and Rachel Reeves 169 00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:56,360 Speaker 1: full of vacuum in Davos charm offensive, yes exactly. And 170 00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 1: Kia Starma and Rachel Reeves have taken advantage of the 171 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:03,840 Speaker 1: absence of a Rishi suonak in his Chancellor Jeremy Hand 172 00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:07,600 Speaker 1: at the World Economic Forum in Davos, and according to 173 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:10,320 Speaker 1: the newspaper, Labor's top team were there to show the 174 00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:13,840 Speaker 1: world the party is back to the political middle ground 175 00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:17,480 Speaker 1: and is a pro business party. The Prime Minister may 176 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:20,199 Speaker 1: have been missing, but Grant Chaps was there talking about 177 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:23,640 Speaker 1: his plans to scale up Britain over a lunch. You 178 00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:26,200 Speaker 1: know what. The lunch was very healthy, grilled vegetables and 179 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:32,000 Speaker 1: roast chicken breast chefs. So the UK government had growth strategy. 180 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:36,839 Speaker 1: I think that almost meets your standards for foods. Yes, 181 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:38,960 Speaker 1: he'll just take out the chicken. But there we are. 182 00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:42,360 Speaker 1: Apparently he had a lunch, very healthy lunch. But listen, 183 00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:45,880 Speaker 1: this is really red versus blue, and it seems like 184 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 1: the charm offensive for Keir Starman Rachel Reeves went the 185 00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:51,319 Speaker 1: way they wanted it to. Okay, really good, Thank you 186 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:53,199 Speaker 1: so much, Leon, Go and there for our review of 187 00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:55,440 Speaker 1: the newspaper as well. Of course, speaking of Davos, where 188 00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:59,240 Speaker 1: else should we go But to Bloomberg's anchor and editor 189 00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:02,400 Speaker 1: at large, Francie Lackwad, the world's elite have flocked back 190 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:05,400 Speaker 1: to Davils this week. This is the final day there'll 191 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:08,920 Speaker 1: be a panel with the RMF Managing director Chrislina Georgiava, 192 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:12,360 Speaker 1: the ECB President Christine Lagarde, and the French Finance Minister 193 00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:17,000 Speaker 1: Bruno Lamaire. But there has been some grumbling about who 194 00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:21,480 Speaker 1: did not attend the World Economic Forum. So Francine Lackwise 195 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:23,680 Speaker 1: joins us. Now, really good to have you on the 196 00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 1: show this morning. Fran We knew, good morning. We knew 197 00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:30,599 Speaker 1: there weren't going to be any Russian or Chinese billionaires, 198 00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 1: but the surprise perhaps was the absent Americans. In fact, 199 00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:41,280 Speaker 1: if you look at the chief seven leaders in general, Caroline, 200 00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:43,959 Speaker 1: there was less room for a feel good public appearances 201 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 1: and so there was only one seven leader and that 202 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:48,840 Speaker 1: was all of shots. I think the reason you come 203 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:51,959 Speaker 1: from Davos or two Davas a big speech. Either you're 204 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 1: optimistic about the world or you have a very strong message, 205 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:57,120 Speaker 1: and we're kind of in this limbo. So if you 206 00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:59,360 Speaker 1: look at who we've had in the past, we had 207 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:02,360 Speaker 1: that huge, huge speech from the President she of China 208 00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:04,440 Speaker 1: about five years ago saying that they wanted to open 209 00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:06,720 Speaker 1: up in the world. We didn't have, of course, Donald 210 00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:10,360 Speaker 1: Trump in many years asking for business. Um for you 211 00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:13,320 Speaker 1: know to come to the US. This time, we didn't 212 00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:17,080 Speaker 1: really have anyone huge from the U. S elegation, So 213 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:19,319 Speaker 1: we didn't have the President Joe Biden, we didn't have 214 00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:21,760 Speaker 1: the Vice president, who didn't even have the Secretary of 215 00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:23,920 Speaker 1: State Anthony Blinkett. And what was it a little bit 216 00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:27,720 Speaker 1: strange is actually there was Janet Yellett, but she was 217 00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:30,400 Speaker 1: in Switzerland to meet with the Vice Premier of China, 218 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:33,439 Speaker 1: not in Davos. And then but they decided to meet 219 00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:35,560 Speaker 1: in euro so the vice president of China was here 220 00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:38,120 Speaker 1: and then he drove two hours to Urik to meet 221 00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:41,400 Speaker 1: away to charge herself before she flew to Africa. So 222 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:43,280 Speaker 1: it's a little bit of a strange Devils. I think 223 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:44,960 Speaker 1: a lot of people are back that wanted to deal, 224 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 1: but you were missing the kind of headline. You know, 225 00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 1: the Prime minister that you try and usually doorstep for 226 00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:53,040 Speaker 1: the president that you want to try and speak to him. 227 00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:57,079 Speaker 1: I remember again chasing the Iranian president years ago. They 228 00:12:57,120 --> 00:12:59,880 Speaker 1: haven't come for a long time, So maybe devils just 229 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:02,720 Speaker 1: changing a little bit. Front sine. Now we know that 230 00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 1: anyone who's anyone a Davos speaks to you. So among 231 00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:07,960 Speaker 1: the interviews you've had this week, Who's who has done 232 00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 1: out for you? So we've spoken, Um, it's even two 233 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 1: three soevern wealth funds. I think the total they have 234 00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:18,320 Speaker 1: like two trillion assets under management. It was interesting to 235 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:22,480 Speaker 1: hear them talk about optimated, which I think it's probably true. 236 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:26,360 Speaker 1: Rife and Davos. Everyone is talking about the procession possibly 237 00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:31,000 Speaker 1: being avoided reaching peak inflation because of China reopening, but 238 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 1: also because markets have been up in the last two weeks. 239 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:36,720 Speaker 1: And if you look at it from a legal perspective, 240 00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:39,160 Speaker 1: these were the same people that were really read down 241 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 1: beat about three you know, if it was three four 242 00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:44,600 Speaker 1: weeks ago. Even so, there has been a turning points 243 00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 1: at the start of the year, and I was really 244 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:48,520 Speaker 1: interested speaking to the Southern wealth funds. They had a 245 00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:50,280 Speaker 1: bit more of a those reality because they have to 246 00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:53,960 Speaker 1: allocate capitals. So I really really enjoyed a lot of 247 00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:56,000 Speaker 1: her interviews with that. We spoke to the Norwegians over 248 00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:58,240 Speaker 1: wealth fund we spoke to the q I A and 249 00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:01,240 Speaker 1: then look, a lot of the focus were was Wall Street. 250 00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:03,440 Speaker 1: We had all of the Titans dropped by the studio 251 00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:06,240 Speaker 1: and we spoke to them about bonuses and compensation, and 252 00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:08,880 Speaker 1: then of course let's not forget Ukraine. We had the 253 00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:12,360 Speaker 1: Polish prime minister, we had the Ukraine and Cortany minister. 254 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:15,040 Speaker 1: And it always stops in your track. I know we 255 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:18,240 Speaker 1: cover it day out, but when you have someone physically 256 00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:20,160 Speaker 1: pregnant with you talking about some of the hearts up 257 00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 1: on the ground, it's um. You know, it's not something 258 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:26,640 Speaker 1: that that you forget very easy. Now. Absolutely it does 259 00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:29,400 Speaker 1: around that point home that there is a war on 260 00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:34,240 Speaker 1: the European continent ongoing. Um. Look, just briefly, you mentioned 261 00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:37,360 Speaker 1: the Guitar Investment Authority. You spoke to the CEO. I mean, 262 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:40,120 Speaker 1: is there much has been made of the pivot to 263 00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:45,920 Speaker 1: the Middle East, emerging markets, a booming region, a booming region, 264 00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:49,640 Speaker 1: and the ready to deals. So we had tried to, 265 00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:52,880 Speaker 1: you know, speak to the q i AM almost all 266 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:55,680 Speaker 1: year and they really do only like speaking that partly 267 00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:58,920 Speaker 1: because maybe he's morel arxed. It's on a world stage 268 00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:02,160 Speaker 1: and he wants to also speak to the companies that failed, 269 00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:03,840 Speaker 1: and I have to say a lot of the company's 270 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:06,840 Speaker 1: owned by the q I A show up also meet 271 00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:09,800 Speaker 1: with him here and Davos. The other story that really 272 00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:13,120 Speaker 1: surpresates football. You know, let's Let's remember there was all this, 273 00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:15,840 Speaker 1: there's like the shop parade and I have a couple 274 00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:18,040 Speaker 1: of people from the news room. Let's say, oh, can 275 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:20,080 Speaker 1: you get me a T shirt of Monte Trash for 276 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:22,240 Speaker 1: this was Mancester United. But it's not that kind of shop. 277 00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:25,440 Speaker 1: You don't go in as by merchandise. This is the shop. 278 00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:28,200 Speaker 1: But basically they're speaking to investors and this is a 279 00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:31,160 Speaker 1: week where not only the you know, were the rumors 280 00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:33,520 Speaker 1: that they would you know, that they could sell at stake, 281 00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:35,520 Speaker 1: but also that it was the first bit of the 282 00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:37,840 Speaker 1: jim wrap. But that came on. So I asked QUI, 283 00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:42,160 Speaker 1: do you want to buy football? And he lost nervously 284 00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:45,040 Speaker 1: and he said, of what, we're first looking at everything, 285 00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:48,080 Speaker 1: but you know, the Premier League, there's nothing really quite 286 00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:49,600 Speaker 1: like it. We also spoke to the track to the 287 00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:51,720 Speaker 1: business secture of being a k and I said, look, 288 00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:54,560 Speaker 1: is the Primari League really all for sale?
