WEBVTT - The Odd Lots Preview

0:00:04.400 --> 0:00:08.480
<v Speaker 1>Hello, and welcome to Odd Lots, a new podcast from Bloomberg.

0:00:08.520 --> 0:00:11.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm Joseph Wisenthal, co host of What You Missed on

0:00:11.039 --> 0:00:14.680
<v Speaker 1>Bloomberg TV and an editor at Bloomberg Markets. I'm here

0:00:14.720 --> 0:00:18.760
<v Speaker 1>with my colleague Tracy Alloway. Hi there, I'm executive editor

0:00:18.800 --> 0:00:22.079
<v Speaker 1>of Bloomberg Markets, and I'm really excited to be here

0:00:22.239 --> 0:00:24.759
<v Speaker 1>for our new podcast, odd Lots. For those of you

0:00:24.760 --> 0:00:27.400
<v Speaker 1>who don't know, an odd thoughts is a small bundle

0:00:27.480 --> 0:00:31.440
<v Speaker 1>of stocks or bonds. It's relatively unusual. People. You usually

0:00:31.480 --> 0:00:34.400
<v Speaker 1>pay a premium to trade it. This is free. You're

0:00:34.440 --> 0:00:36.640
<v Speaker 1>not paying a premium. But we're going to be discussing

0:00:36.720 --> 0:00:39.600
<v Speaker 1>some interesting ideas, and so they don't normally fit within

0:00:39.680 --> 0:00:41.640
<v Speaker 1>the normal trading patterns of the day. Is at the

0:00:41.680 --> 0:00:44.320
<v Speaker 1>idea exactly? We're doing something a little bit different here

0:00:44.800 --> 0:00:46.920
<v Speaker 1>and how does it fit with you? Know? We? You

0:00:47.000 --> 0:00:49.160
<v Speaker 1>and I. We do stuff on the web all day.

0:00:49.320 --> 0:00:53.159
<v Speaker 1>We blog and tweet and send out charts, and how

0:00:53.159 --> 0:00:55.600
<v Speaker 1>do you see what we're doing fitting with that? We

0:00:55.720 --> 0:00:58.160
<v Speaker 1>got a three hundred sixty degree view of markets. We

0:00:58.240 --> 0:01:02.040
<v Speaker 1>cover stocks, credit, bond, commodities, you name it, we're covering it.

0:01:02.160 --> 0:01:04.480
<v Speaker 1>This is our chance I think and you'll have to

0:01:04.520 --> 0:01:06.720
<v Speaker 1>tell me what you think about it to really get

0:01:06.760 --> 0:01:08.640
<v Speaker 1>into some of those themes that we're seeing and discuss

0:01:08.720 --> 0:01:10.760
<v Speaker 1>them in a bit more detail. Right, we're going to

0:01:10.800 --> 0:01:16.280
<v Speaker 1>be talking about finance, market economics, market structure, geo politics,

0:01:16.400 --> 0:01:19.280
<v Speaker 1>and everything that we kind of want to talk about.

0:01:19.400 --> 0:01:22.080
<v Speaker 1>We can think of odd lots as the overflow area

0:01:22.240 --> 0:01:25.360
<v Speaker 1>for all the interesting financial and market stuff that we see.

0:01:25.440 --> 0:01:28.360
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to have longer conversations with people. You always

0:01:28.400 --> 0:01:30.759
<v Speaker 1>want more time, and so for our first episode, we're

0:01:30.800 --> 0:01:34.280
<v Speaker 1>going to be talking with Tom Keene, the legendary host

0:01:34.319 --> 0:01:39.559
<v Speaker 1>here at Bloomberg of Bloomberg Surveillance on TV and radio. Hello, Tom,

0:01:40.080 --> 0:01:42.560
<v Speaker 1>good to be here. Why do you like podcasts? And

0:01:42.640 --> 0:01:44.600
<v Speaker 1>you you talk about why you like them and you

0:01:44.600 --> 0:01:46.920
<v Speaker 1>think it's a good format. What appeals to the Yeah,

0:01:46.920 --> 0:01:49.360
<v Speaker 1>it's really important. We learned a lot years ago with iTunes.

0:01:49.440 --> 0:01:53.360
<v Speaker 1>With doing podcasts. The number one thing we know is

0:01:53.360 --> 0:01:57.240
<v Speaker 1>what we don't know about video. There's a huge mystery

0:01:57.280 --> 0:02:00.320
<v Speaker 1>to video is going to be consumed. There's no story

0:02:00.400 --> 0:02:03.760
<v Speaker 1>about audio. Audio gets consumed. That's a number one thing

0:02:04.160 --> 0:02:07.360
<v Speaker 1>about podcasts. So people will listen. We we we know

0:02:07.640 --> 0:02:11.919
<v Speaker 1>from all sorts of research, audio wins over video every

0:02:11.960 --> 0:02:14.680
<v Speaker 1>day that may change. People have been predicting it would

0:02:14.720 --> 0:02:19.720
<v Speaker 1>change for years, but so far post for the first episode,

0:02:19.760 --> 0:02:22.320
<v Speaker 1>you'll be able to listen to us talk about Tom

0:02:22.400 --> 0:02:26.119
<v Speaker 1>Keane and his extraordinary and unusual background, as well as

0:02:26.639 --> 0:02:30.519
<v Speaker 1>the economy, the big issues, and particularly how mathematics and

0:02:30.680 --> 0:02:35.679
<v Speaker 1>music relate to the market. All right, well, I can't

0:02:35.720 --> 0:02:38.680
<v Speaker 1>wait to have this conversation and I hope everybody out

0:02:38.720 --> 0:02:41.200

0:02:41.240 --> 0:02:45.400
