1 00:00:01,680 --> 00:00:07,160 Speaker 1: This is breaking new loose from Bloomberg. Last month was 2 00:00:07,160 --> 00:00:10,760 Speaker 1: one hundred and fourteen thousand. It is revised under one 3 00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:16,680 Speaker 1: hundred thousand, eighty nine thousand positive eighty nine thousand, So 4 00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:18,960 Speaker 1: I've got one hundred and forty two thousand is the 5 00:00:19,079 --> 00:00:22,880 Speaker 1: jobs report and the two month revision is eighty six. 6 00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:25,520 Speaker 1: So Paul, do the math with me. Six takeaway one 7 00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:29,360 Speaker 1: who is thirteen eight is fifty one thousand, yep, I 8 00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:33,680 Speaker 1: think fifty six thousand, excuse me, fifty six thousand positive 9 00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:38,280 Speaker 1: is the summation with the revision. We job on along here, folks, 10 00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:41,760 Speaker 1: to give Neil Dutta time to look at these statistics. 11 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:44,720 Speaker 2: Neil, what does this signal for Chairman Powell? 12 00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:50,000 Speaker 3: Get going? That's what it says, go fifty with a 13 00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:53,720 Speaker 3: promise to do as much as necessary to stabilize labor 14 00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:54,880 Speaker 3: market conditions. 15 00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:58,520 Speaker 4: So again, Neil, I mean, and you think about these 16 00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:01,520 Speaker 4: numbers and the revisions as to almost just summarizing here 17 00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:05,959 Speaker 4: the labor market, I guess it kind of falls into 18 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:08,280 Speaker 4: what we were just saying many minutes ago, not nearly 19 00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:09,480 Speaker 4: as strong as people think it is. 20 00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:12,240 Speaker 5: No, I mean, the. 21 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:15,959 Speaker 3: Three month trend on non farm private pails is running 22 00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:19,279 Speaker 3: below one hundred thousand. I mean, that's not a good number. 23 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:24,680 Speaker 3: You know, that's barely break even, and I think it's 24 00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:28,120 Speaker 3: arguably actually worse than that because one of the reasons 25 00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:29,959 Speaker 3: why the number even looked as good as it did 26 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:32,880 Speaker 3: is because we saw an uptake in construction employment among 27 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:39,319 Speaker 3: I think civil engineer contractors. And so that's not going 28 00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:42,240 Speaker 3: to last because everything we know about construction right now 29 00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:45,800 Speaker 3: is that units under construction are under constructure collapsing. So 30 00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 3: why are we hiring all these people to build one 31 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:52,760 Speaker 3: exactly that That implies a margin squeeze for builders, which 32 00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 3: I don't think they can tolerate right now. So I 33 00:01:56,440 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 3: think it's the goods producing side. I mean Tom mentioned benfacturing. 34 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:03,400 Speaker 3: I think that's notable because a lot of people were 35 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 3: thinking maybe you'd see some uptaking manufacturing because of the 36 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 3: unwind of the retooling. 37 00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 2: It just didn't happen. 38 00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:12,160 Speaker 3: Right on the good side of the economy's week, cyclically 39 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:16,839 Speaker 3: sensitive industries are sluggish, and you know, this is all 40 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:19,760 Speaker 3: about the FED trying to create a handoff from income 41 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 3: lead growth to credit led growth. That's what this is about. 42 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:25,880 Speaker 3: So they need to keep cutting until the credits active 43 00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 3: area of the economy turn. 44 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:28,200 Speaker 2: Joining us worldwide. 45 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:31,120 Speaker 1: Neil dotta, we are commercial free to the nine o'clock hour. 46 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:34,440 Speaker 1: Claudia sam Mark Zandi will join in a moment. Ben 47 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,920 Speaker 1: Ladler will join us on the equity market reaction in 48 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:41,840 Speaker 1: the view forward here Later in these twenty minutes, futures 49 00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 1: at negative seventeen, the vixers A twenty two level comes 50 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:50,320 Speaker 1: in nicely twenty point seven six. Major bond market adjustments 51 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:53,440 Speaker 1: make it eight basis points. Two year yield three point 52 00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:56,800 Speaker 1: sixty six thirty year bond well under four percent, three 53 00:02:56,840 --> 00:03:00,360 Speaker 1: point nine eight percent, ten year yield three points sixty 54 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:04,240 Speaker 1: seven percent. Neil, I want you to frame out for 55 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:10,720 Speaker 1: us what inflation will do given a depressed GDP in 56 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,959 Speaker 1: the job market, moving the second derivative here is moving 57 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 1: to a worser space. What does inflation then do further disinflation. 58 00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:23,519 Speaker 3: I mean absolently, I think so. I mean if you 59 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 3: look at core goods, not housing services, and housing rents, 60 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 3: I mean those are those are the three ways to 61 00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 3: slice the inflation data. The entire shortfall relative to the 62 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 3: FEDS target is in housing rents, which we know will 63 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:40,720 Speaker 3: continue to normalize given the lagged You know sort of 64 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:44,360 Speaker 3: nature of that indicator relative to market based rents. Everything 65 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 3: else is basically normalized. So you know again, I mean, 66 00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 3: what's the upside risk for inflation if growth is running 67 00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 3: below potential and the momentum under the unemployment rate is higher. 68 00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 3: I mean that's kind of it's kind of I mean, 69 00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:02,440 Speaker 3: unit labor costs are running basically flat for the last year, 70 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 3: so there's no more of an inflationary impulse coming out 71 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 3: of the job market. That story is completely over, and 72 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 3: the FED continues to run a very very restricted policy stance. 73 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:15,560 Speaker 4: Well, Paul, get one more in here, and Neil, and 74 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:17,479 Speaker 4: you know, the unemployment rate, just for those that are 75 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:20,159 Speaker 4: gonna be watching the headlines, stay steady at four point 76 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:22,920 Speaker 4: two percent here, right in line with expectations. What does 77 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:25,159 Speaker 4: the FED think about an unemployment rate of four point 78 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 4: two percent? Do you think? 79 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 3: I don't think they should think about an unemployment rate 80 00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:32,040 Speaker 3: of four point two percent. I think they should think 81 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:34,320 Speaker 3: about what's gone on over the last six months. 82 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 2: Here you going, what's gone out? 83 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,240 Speaker 1: That's absolutely Neildudda, I know you got a publish, will 84 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:40,359 Speaker 1: feature that out on Twitter. 85 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 2: Neil Dudda with Ron Mack will publish. 86 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 1: We thank him for careful market economic analysis. So now 87 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:50,120 Speaker 1: bring you Claudia S'm chief economists New Century Advisors, and 88 00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:53,600 Speaker 1: doctor Mark Zandi, chief economists at Moody's. We had them 89 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:56,640 Speaker 1: on here, oh thirty or sixty days ago, can't remember. 90 00:04:56,720 --> 00:05:00,080 Speaker 1: It was just lights out, great, great analysis, Claudia. I 91 00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:02,560 Speaker 1: want to get this out of the way so we 92 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:05,120 Speaker 1: can move on to the real Claudia, Sam, I'm sick 93 00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 1: of the palm recession. Pinata, Can you just give us 94 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:14,080 Speaker 1: an update without tire and feathering your reputation? Are we 95 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:16,600 Speaker 1: close to a recession? Doctor somem? 96 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:20,880 Speaker 5: So they increase the unemployment rate is in a range 97 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:24,120 Speaker 5: where we have historically been in recessions, right, But that's 98 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:25,239 Speaker 5: a history, that's a past. 99 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:27,160 Speaker 6: We're not in a recession right now. 100 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,320 Speaker 5: But we do have a weakening labor market, right, So 101 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:31,640 Speaker 5: that's the important takeaway. 102 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 6: But like, not a recession right now, but a risk 103 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:34,520 Speaker 6: as risk. 104 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:36,560 Speaker 2: And what I remember from two thousand and eight is 105 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:37,359 Speaker 2: a Zandy rule. 106 00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 1: There's a Psam rule, but there's also the Zandy rule, 107 00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:44,280 Speaker 1: which is to be optimistic about America, Mark Zandy, if 108 00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:46,760 Speaker 1: we get the deck of cards, I hear from Neil 109 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 1: and others in you frankly at Moodies as well. Can 110 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:56,240 Speaker 1: corporations adjust and sustain off of a lower nominal GDP 111 00:05:57,080 --> 00:06:00,599 Speaker 1: decent revenue and decent earnings or do you just suggest 112 00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:01,720 Speaker 1: everything goes. 113 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 7: Down, Tom, I think they're doing just fine. I mean, 114 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 7: looking at corporate earnings, they feel pretty good. I mean, 115 00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 7: through Q two of twenty twenty four, double digit ear 116 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:16,039 Speaker 7: or ear growth, and you know, expectations of analysts always 117 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:18,440 Speaker 7: are on the high side, but they're still pretty good 118 00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:21,840 Speaker 7: as well. So I think the economy is doing fine 119 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:27,360 Speaker 7: and producing enough enough revenue growth to keep profitability going strong. 120 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 7: So yeah, I'm not worried about that. And you know, 121 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:34,200 Speaker 7: just broadly, yeh, you know, I'm all on board with 122 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:37,359 Speaker 7: the view that the BET should be cutting rates and 123 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:41,599 Speaker 7: normalizing them very quickly. But today's report I thought pretty 124 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:43,880 Speaker 7: much down the strike zone. I mean, you know, the 125 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 7: kind of right underlying job growth is one hundred and 126 00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:48,359 Speaker 7: one hundred and fifty k that's kind of where you 127 00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:51,480 Speaker 7: want it. Four point two percent unemployment, that's kind of 128 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:53,800 Speaker 7: where you want it. You saw a tick up an 129 00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:56,599 Speaker 7: hour's work per week, that's, you know, feels pretty good. 130 00:06:56,680 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 7: Wage growth is almost exactly where you want it. I mean, yeah, 131 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:03,280 Speaker 7: you can just put hairs. Come on, what are we 132 00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 7: going to say this? This is a good report, this 133 00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:07,680 Speaker 7: was this felt like a really good report to me. 134 00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:10,560 Speaker 4: Is it to the point there marked where the FED 135 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 4: can stay at twenty five basis points or is this 136 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 4: something that some are suggesting may push them to a 137 00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:17,440 Speaker 4: fifty basis point cut in September. 138 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 7: Yeah, I think it's twenty five. I mean, I would 139 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:24,440 Speaker 7: expect the FED to cut fifty only in emergency if 140 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 7: you know, markets are really evaporating or there really was 141 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 7: some serious deterioration in the economy, job market. But I 142 00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 7: don't see any of that. So I think it's a 143 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:36,040 Speaker 7: core point, and there's you know, I think there's good 144 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 7: arguments to cut and cut in a consistent way, but 145 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:43,800 Speaker 7: I don't think we need to dramatically cut all at once, 146 00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:47,840 Speaker 7: because there's a lot of uncertainty as to reasonable uncertainty 147 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 7: as to you know, where the FED should be going here. 148 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 7: What is the so called equilibrium federal funds rate? What's 149 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:56,280 Speaker 7: the rate where policies either supporting or restraining growth? That 150 00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 7: is very uncertain, And I think given that, I go 151 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:03,080 Speaker 7: obiously unless push to do otherwise, And in this report. 152 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:06,960 Speaker 7: I don't see any reason to feel like they have 153 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 7: to move very quickly. 154 00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:09,080 Speaker 6: Here, Claudia. 155 00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 4: Over the weekend, you'll be at some fancy cocktail party 156 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:13,760 Speaker 4: and somebody's can come up to you and say, hey, Claudia, 157 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:16,400 Speaker 4: how's the US labor market. What's your response? 158 00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 6: It's not headed in the right direction. This is the 159 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 6: thing I am most concerned about. Again. 160 00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:28,480 Speaker 5: Just you know the numbers, like the numbers themselves. Okay, fine, 161 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 5: It's just things have been slowing and we can and 162 00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:34,920 Speaker 5: not because I am you know, hair on fire, that 163 00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:38,360 Speaker 5: are recessions around the corner. I'm really concerned that we're 164 00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:40,920 Speaker 5: losing a slipping away of a. 165 00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 6: Really good labor market. 166 00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 5: And we need this as good as it gets and 167 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:47,880 Speaker 5: there should be nothing weaker than what it takes the 168 00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:50,520 Speaker 5: get inflation down. And we are like the train is 169 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:52,840 Speaker 5: still moving and is not in the right direction. 170 00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:55,199 Speaker 1: I mean to both of you, and then, folks, we've 171 00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:57,599 Speaker 1: got huge academic caliber here. Mark, I'm going to go 172 00:08:57,640 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 1: to you first, and then Claudia. Is the same question 173 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:03,520 Speaker 1: the ECB is trying to teach us about being non measured. 174 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:07,559 Speaker 1: Are we slaves? Mark Sandy to a green spanny and 175 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:12,640 Speaker 1: measured approach, careful, careful, careful. Why can't we go X 176 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:17,079 Speaker 1: beeps or why beeps or Z beeps and see what happens? 177 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:18,439 Speaker 1: Why can't we do that? 178 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:21,920 Speaker 7: Mark Sandy, Well, I don't know Tom that you need to. 179 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:25,439 Speaker 7: I mean, if the you know, the labor market was 180 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:28,600 Speaker 7: falling apart, yeah, absolutely, If you know financial system was 181 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 7: in turmoil, yeah, i'd move quit more quickly. But you know, 182 00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 7: the economies, it's throttling back. But that's exactly what you'd 183 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,520 Speaker 7: want to see, to throttle back it, for it to 184 00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:44,600 Speaker 7: throttle back here it's been growing too strongly and it's 185 00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:47,960 Speaker 7: kind of coming right into where you want it, and 186 00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:52,559 Speaker 7: no reason to to move quickly otherwise. And again I 187 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 7: keep going back to I don't think anyone knows reasonably 188 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 7: so where we're headed here. You know, it feels like 189 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:02,400 Speaker 7: I feel like the equilibrium rate is higher than it 190 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 7: has been typically. Uh, and it's moving, so you know, 191 00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:09,240 Speaker 7: why not go cautiously and you know, if things start 192 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:12,640 Speaker 7: to really deteriorate, if you know, we do start to 193 00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:16,720 Speaker 7: see really significant job loss or or even very weak 194 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:19,760 Speaker 7: job growth. Hey, one other quick point I wanted to make, please, 195 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:24,360 Speaker 7: you know the August data is always weak. You know, 196 00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:27,360 Speaker 7: we get very low response rates, initial response rates in 197 00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:29,600 Speaker 7: the month of August, I think for obvious reasons, people 198 00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:32,760 Speaker 7: are on vacation, and we always get an initial print 199 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:36,600 Speaker 7: that's on the sauce side. And almost invariably, if you 200 00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 7: cast me back a year from now, we're going to 201 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:42,000 Speaker 7: be talking about upward efficients to the data. So you know, 202 00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:44,079 Speaker 7: you just have to take that into consideration. 203 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,840 Speaker 1: Claudia, I got a scree month moving average of one 204 00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:50,760 Speaker 1: hundred and sixteen thousand, three hundred and thirty three one 205 00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:54,679 Speaker 1: one six three three three. I'm sorry, but that's way 206 00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:57,520 Speaker 1: below anything I've seen as a normal rate of unemployment 207 00:10:57,720 --> 00:10:59,960 Speaker 1: if you take the screen month moving average Jason Firm 208 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 1: and I'll help out on this at Harvard. I'm sorry, Claudia, 209 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:06,640 Speaker 1: is measured in place or is this a fed that's 210 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:08,440 Speaker 1: got to go and hoc forward? 211 00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:12,440 Speaker 5: Well, I think again, it's like looking at how the 212 00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:15,439 Speaker 5: variables are changing. The unemployment rate has been rising. Yes, 213 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 5: it is still relatively low historically. 214 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 6: We also have an older workforce. 215 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:22,120 Speaker 5: Four point three percent is not that far from and 216 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:26,640 Speaker 5: experienced and esteemed right, and so there's no magic number 217 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 5: with the unemployment rate. It's watching the dynamics. It's watching 218 00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:34,520 Speaker 5: the change and knowing that once that changes in place. 219 00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:38,720 Speaker 5: The FED has been trying for two years to cool 220 00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 5: off the labor market. That's why the funds rate is 221 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:44,360 Speaker 5: at five percent and other types of demand. Right, so, yes, 222 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:47,000 Speaker 5: things are cooling off, and now it's like, okay, now 223 00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:48,079 Speaker 5: we need to slow. 224 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:51,560 Speaker 6: We need to turn that around. We don't need that slowing. 225 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:53,760 Speaker 6: So I think that changes everything. 226 00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:56,320 Speaker 2: Wonderful, Zamon Sandy with us right now. They move the 227 00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:56,959 Speaker 2: market higher. 228 00:11:57,000 --> 00:12:00,800 Speaker 1: Futures negative thirty now negative twelve, deterior in the Sweeney 229 00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:04,480 Speaker 1: yield two year yield from negative seven basis points down 230 00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 1: to negative nine. Those levels three sixty five, two year, 231 00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 1: three sixty eight, ten year, thirty. 232 00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:12,040 Speaker 2: Year bond hut or four percent. Paul you home shopping 233 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 2: this weekend. 234 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:16,839 Speaker 4: I might be absolutely red headline crossing the Bloomberg terminal. 235 00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 4: Traders pricing fifty percent chance of half point FED cut 236 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:24,240 Speaker 4: this month, crossing the Bloomberg terminal, Mark Sandy. Given the 237 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 4: labor outlook here in some of the data we got today, 238 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:30,719 Speaker 4: as it relates to total payrolls and wages, what's your 239 00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:34,040 Speaker 4: view of the US consumer here? How healthy or how 240 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:37,120 Speaker 4: at risk is the US consumer, I. 241 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 7: Think and aggregate, you know, looking across all Americans, they're 242 00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:43,280 Speaker 7: continue to do their part. They're hanging tough. I mean, 243 00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:45,280 Speaker 7: the train is being driven by folks in the top 244 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:47,640 Speaker 7: part of the income distribution. And you know, I don't know, 245 00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:50,080 Speaker 7: I don't think it's hyperperctly, but their financial situation is 246 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:52,680 Speaker 7: probably as good as it's ever been. You know, got 247 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:56,720 Speaker 7: a job, strong, real wage gains, They own stocks, stocks 248 00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:59,160 Speaker 7: or near record high zone home home vows or near 249 00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:01,520 Speaker 7: record highs. If they've got any debt at all, it's 250 00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:04,040 Speaker 7: a thirty or fifteen year or fixed rate mortgage locked 251 00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:06,360 Speaker 7: in And seems like everyone I talked to us mortgage 252 00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:08,839 Speaker 7: is at two and a half or three percent kind 253 00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:11,719 Speaker 7: of locked in. So I again, and in my by 254 00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:14,839 Speaker 7: my calculation, they still have some excess cash that they 255 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:17,440 Speaker 7: build up during the pandemic when they couldn't spend that 256 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:21,480 Speaker 7: they're spending down now. So I think they're fine. I 257 00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:24,920 Speaker 7: do think the soft spot obviously is lower income households. 258 00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:28,400 Speaker 7: They clearly are struggling. You know, they got nailed by 259 00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:30,400 Speaker 7: the high inflation. They took on a lot of debt 260 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,960 Speaker 7: to supplement their income, to maintain their purchasing power. And 261 00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 7: it's one thing when rates are low, but when rates 262 00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:38,680 Speaker 7: are really high. They mean, the credit card rate is 263 00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 7: twenty two percent, a record high. That's very painful. They 264 00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 7: don't own stocks, they don't own a home. They rent, so, 265 00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:47,240 Speaker 7: you know, very different kind of perspectives. But you know, 266 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:48,959 Speaker 7: at the end of the day, it's the folks in 267 00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:51,240 Speaker 7: the top middle parts of the distribution that here we 268 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:52,280 Speaker 7: are critical here. 269 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:53,920 Speaker 2: I mean, I mean, I can't keep up. 270 00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:57,199 Speaker 1: I tried to get John Williams on the show, Claudius, 271 00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:58,560 Speaker 1: Mark Sandy, John. 272 00:13:58,320 --> 00:13:59,960 Speaker 2: Williams, that would have been good. 273 00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:04,200 Speaker 1: New York Fed President John Williams says, now appropriate to 274 00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:07,560 Speaker 1: lower FED funds rate, Claudia, when you were studying this 275 00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:13,120 Speaker 1: in Michigan, this this this ex post lag Is this 276 00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:16,079 Speaker 1: unusual the way our FED is acting. 277 00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:22,760 Speaker 5: Yes, particularly in the way monetary policy is quote unquote 278 00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 5: supposed to be done like in the theories, right, but 279 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:29,160 Speaker 5: that's a very clean, not realistic state. I understand why 280 00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:33,040 Speaker 5: the FED when tools start breaking down and data don't 281 00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:36,000 Speaker 5: make as much sense, then you kind of you, you know, 282 00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:38,920 Speaker 5: crawl your way along and you want evidence. I think 283 00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:41,800 Speaker 5: this FED did lean into a very FED like tendency 284 00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:44,680 Speaker 5: of being super super cautious, and they have been kind 285 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:47,040 Speaker 5: of greedy in terms of how much data they wanted 286 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:50,200 Speaker 5: on inflation. And if I had to hear so many times. 287 00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:52,440 Speaker 5: We have the luxury of time because the labor market 288 00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:54,640 Speaker 5: is so strong, it's like, well, well guess what it 289 00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:57,560 Speaker 5: actually wasn't as strong, and so there's a cost. Like 290 00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:02,240 Speaker 5: they took time to get comfortable with inflation, but that 291 00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:05,480 Speaker 5: probably means they do not have time to get right. 292 00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:07,440 Speaker 6: Is the lever market really weakening? 293 00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:10,320 Speaker 5: Like they may need to recalibrate some and get going 294 00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:12,080 Speaker 5: I think would be the appropriate But. 295 00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:14,680 Speaker 6: This, this is really outside of their playbook. So I 296 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:17,480 Speaker 6: understand why this is a hard case to make. 297 00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:20,680 Speaker 1: Doctor Xandy, your opiniata for the Gloom Crew, I mean 298 00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:23,840 Speaker 1: seven eight oh nine, you said, everybody shut up, We're 299 00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:27,560 Speaker 1: going to fix this Zandy pandemic. Everybody shut up, We're 300 00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:31,040 Speaker 1: going to fix this. Give us an optimistic touch here 301 00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:37,239 Speaker 1: on how America will clear these traumas post pandemic, Shinas 302 00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:42,080 Speaker 1: slowing down, Claudia Sam's cats are miserable. Mark Zandy, just 303 00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:44,520 Speaker 1: as directly as you can give us. 304 00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:45,080 Speaker 2: I need some. 305 00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:48,280 Speaker 1: Xandy optimism now, or I can't get through the weekend. 306 00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:51,880 Speaker 7: Really, I've got that reputation. I didn't know that I'm 307 00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:56,720 Speaker 7: that optimistic. Well look, uh just look at the numbers. 308 00:15:56,920 --> 00:16:00,080 Speaker 7: I mean, top four point two percent on employment. I mean, okay, 309 00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:03,080 Speaker 7: be nicer if it were four I'm I'm on board 310 00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:05,560 Speaker 7: with that. I mean, it's maybe on the soft side 311 00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:08,720 Speaker 7: of one point four point two percent unemployment. We're creating 312 00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:11,320 Speaker 7: a lot of jobs across lots of different industries and 313 00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:16,080 Speaker 7: have been for you know, quite some time. Inflation that's 314 00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:19,680 Speaker 7: back in the bottle almost no matter how you measure it. 315 00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:23,440 Speaker 7: So you know, we're growing at a potential. And by 316 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:26,240 Speaker 7: the way, here's the thing that's really you know, makes 317 00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:30,360 Speaker 7: me encouraged. The economy's potential is very strong. I mean, 318 00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:32,480 Speaker 7: we're seeing a lot of labor force growth. Well that's 319 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:34,760 Speaker 7: one of the that's the key reason why unemployment is 320 00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:38,040 Speaker 7: not tired here over the past year. That goes to immigration, 321 00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:39,600 Speaker 7: and you know there's a lot of costs there, but 322 00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:42,320 Speaker 7: the benefit obviously is the strong liver force growth. And 323 00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 7: look at those productivity growth numbers, and you know, I 324 00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:49,080 Speaker 7: mean it's hard to argue that whether it's sustainable or not, 325 00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:50,600 Speaker 7: but it feels like there's a lot of good things 326 00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:53,320 Speaker 7: happening underneath all the business formation we beginning since the 327 00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:56,040 Speaker 7: pandemic hit. It's probably reaping benefit. And this is all 328 00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:58,440 Speaker 7: before AI kind of kicks in. So you add of 329 00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:01,280 Speaker 7: all the productivity gains, yeah, in the labor force growth, 330 00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:05,040 Speaker 7: and that's a strong growing economy and the FED. The 331 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:07,240 Speaker 7: trick for the FED here is, you know, let the 332 00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:10,720 Speaker 7: take the foot off the brakes sufficiently to allow the 333 00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:13,480 Speaker 7: economy to grow at its higher potential. That's a very 334 00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:16,920 Speaker 7: different issue or problem. Demand we're evaporating. That's not what's 335 00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:20,320 Speaker 7: going on here. So you know, objectively, take a step 336 00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:23,440 Speaker 7: back and take a look around. This economy is good. 337 00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:26,359 Speaker 1: Paul, one quick question to Claudia sim because futures just 338 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:30,240 Speaker 1: went green, which is a signal. Go Ben Ladler, so 339 00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:32,600 Speaker 1: quickly here Paul, go to Claudia. And then we got 340 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:34,000 Speaker 1: to drag Ben Laidler in here. 341 00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:36,400 Speaker 4: Claudia, Sam, I mean again, how do you just when 342 00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:37,800 Speaker 4: you sit back, you've had a few minutes of the 343 00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:40,040 Speaker 4: digestis how's it fed? How do you think they're going 344 00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:41,280 Speaker 4: to digest these numbers today? 345 00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:46,119 Speaker 5: I think the payroll numbers are going to be the 346 00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:48,680 Speaker 5: concern and frankly, the piece of it that I found 347 00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:53,720 Speaker 5: most is concerning you are the July revision, the earlier revisions, right, 348 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:57,439 Speaker 5: that's the hiring rate has gotten too low of a place, 349 00:17:57,640 --> 00:17:59,640 Speaker 5: and we're seeing it in the job gains. 350 00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:00,240 Speaker 6: And then to it. 351 00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:04,120 Speaker 5: You know, July was actually even a little worse than 352 00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:08,639 Speaker 5: we thought on the jobs number, and so that I 353 00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:10,040 Speaker 5: think that takes some pause. 354 00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:12,520 Speaker 2: She said, So I'm supposed to have dinner with Claudia 355 00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 2: and Jackson Hole. You know what they served. 356 00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:18,800 Speaker 1: Elk and the health's food was venison. I mean there's 357 00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:21,000 Speaker 1: no fish or nothing, Claudia, some we got to go. 358 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:24,280 Speaker 1: Thank you so much, Claudia, Sam just nailing these revisions. 359 00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:26,280 Speaker 1: I want to want to mention Anna Wong as well 360 00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:29,880 Speaker 1: at Bloomberg and Mark Zandy, thank you so much for 361 00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:33,280 Speaker 1: being where us really appreciate from Moody's his optimism on 362 00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:38,400 Speaker 1: the American economic experiment. He is the bull strategist who 363 00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:41,600 Speaker 1: has nailed the trip from twenty eighteen. 364 00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:44,880 Speaker 2: From Christmas Eve of twenty eighteen. 365 00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 1: Ben Laidler joins us. Right now in this market, Ben Ladler, 366 00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 1: are you going to cash? 367 00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:54,040 Speaker 2: No, I'm just busted. 368 00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:59,880 Speaker 8: My shops just killed my keyboard head. No, I think 369 00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:02,240 Speaker 8: this is a I think we're at the early innings 370 00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:04,720 Speaker 8: of the bull market. I think the FED cut, which 371 00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:07,080 Speaker 8: is just around the corner and which we're all sort 372 00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 8: of naval gazing over, I think is the trigger for 373 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:12,960 Speaker 8: this bull market to broaden, both by sector and by 374 00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:16,119 Speaker 8: and by geography. I think the data today probably a 375 00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:18,520 Speaker 8: little bit weaker than you know, bulls like I would 376 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:20,480 Speaker 8: have liked, and it's probably a recipe for a little 377 00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:23,560 Speaker 8: bit more uncertainty. But bottom line, I don't think it 378 00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:26,720 Speaker 8: really changes the trajectory. I mean, this is an economy 379 00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:29,840 Speaker 8: that is slowing. We want it to slow to pull 380 00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:32,160 Speaker 8: forward those rate cuts. FED has a lot of room 381 00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:35,400 Speaker 8: to uh to cut here. I think that will stabilize 382 00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:37,200 Speaker 8: the US economy, and I think that would be very, 383 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:38,640 Speaker 8: very bullish for the rest of the world. 384 00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:40,080 Speaker 2: He's from the United Kingdom. 385 00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:43,480 Speaker 1: We should properly introduce some Ben Ladler Bridesco PBI with 386 00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:45,520 Speaker 1: us right now, Paul Ben. 387 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:49,080 Speaker 4: So again, Yeah, the same the same question I asked 388 00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:51,679 Speaker 4: Claudia some Ben is, how do you think the Federal 389 00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:54,480 Speaker 4: Reserve will digest this labor data today? 390 00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:58,919 Speaker 8: Yeah, so it's probably a little bit weaker than you 391 00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:01,000 Speaker 8: know I would have liked probably that they would have 392 00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:02,720 Speaker 8: liked me. I guess we'd all be looking for that 393 00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:05,920 Speaker 8: sort of goldilocks number that last month was was an aberration. 394 00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:11,560 Speaker 8: Last month probably wasn't an aberration, even though you know, 395 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:13,920 Speaker 8: the numbers were revised down a little bit. Today, I 396 00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:16,640 Speaker 8: think they're probably leaning a little bit more towards fifty. 397 00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 8: But I think, bottom line, you know, they're going to 398 00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:23,360 Speaker 8: get started. Inflation break evens are at two percent. They've 399 00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:25,399 Speaker 8: a lot of room to cut here if they feel 400 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:28,200 Speaker 8: that they need. I would like to see them get started, 401 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:30,960 Speaker 8: and I think the chances a fifty basis point cut 402 00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:33,679 Speaker 8: probably increased a little bit. But you know, I'm not 403 00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:36,320 Speaker 8: sweating the pace I think too much. I think, you know, 404 00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:38,560 Speaker 8: there's a lot of moving parts here. I think overall, 405 00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:41,840 Speaker 8: this is an economy which is which is slowing. But 406 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:43,560 Speaker 8: you know, let's not lose some perspective here. I mean, 407 00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:45,120 Speaker 8: this is an economy that we just had a three 408 00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:49,080 Speaker 8: percent inflation GDP print last you know, last quarter, that's 409 00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:54,960 Speaker 8: nearly double potential GDP unemployment just over four percent. I mean, 410 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:58,120 Speaker 8: we're coming from the start point is a very good. 411 00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:00,879 Speaker 4: Place, given that backdrop, ben given effect that we've got 412 00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:03,880 Speaker 4: Rachs likely coming down, got through a pretty solid earnings 413 00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:06,560 Speaker 4: period in Q two. What are the sectors at screenwall 414 00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:07,119 Speaker 4: for you guys. 415 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:12,639 Speaker 8: I think the biggest call right now is not necessarily 416 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:15,080 Speaker 8: the direction of the market, which I think is pretty 417 00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:17,560 Speaker 8: well set and you know, up and to the right. 418 00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:20,119 Speaker 8: I think it's more about the sectors you own and 419 00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:22,080 Speaker 8: which parts of the world you own. I think this 420 00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:25,080 Speaker 8: is a broadening ball market. I think Tech's being a 421 00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:27,879 Speaker 8: great place to be. It's nothing wrong with Tech, but 422 00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:30,040 Speaker 8: I think you know the bits of the world and 423 00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:34,000 Speaker 8: the sectors that are much more sensitive to these interest 424 00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 8: rate cuts which are coming. It's not the US and 425 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:38,919 Speaker 8: it's not Tech, it's basically everybody else. All there's are 426 00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 8: the bits of the market that we've forgotten about for 427 00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:43,240 Speaker 8: the last ten years. That's I think where you know 428 00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:44,840 Speaker 8: you should be kicking the ties on right now. 429 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:47,000 Speaker 1: Ben, I don't have Apple in front of me, but 430 00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:48,200 Speaker 1: you are way out front. 431 00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:50,760 Speaker 2: Twenty eighteen, twenty two, twenty three. 432 00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:52,880 Speaker 1: In all I'm here in Paul, you earn a lot 433 00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:56,719 Speaker 1: of death of big tech. I am Ben Ladler, the 434 00:21:56,760 --> 00:21:59,720 Speaker 1: Mag seven, the Mag eight, including Berkshire. 435 00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:03,040 Speaker 2: You still got to own them, right, Yeah. 436 00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:06,200 Speaker 8: I think so. You know, the earning numbers are decelerating, 437 00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:08,960 Speaker 8: but that's still you know, no one else comes even close. 438 00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:11,840 Speaker 8: You've got these fortress balance sheets, You've got these huge 439 00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:14,440 Speaker 8: profit margins. You know, with all that, I can more 440 00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:18,280 Speaker 8: than justify you know, the valuations. You know, but we 441 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:20,720 Speaker 8: all know that they're posting strong growth. You know, the 442 00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:24,199 Speaker 8: valuations are you know, already a premium numbers. That's not 443 00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:26,360 Speaker 8: I don't think where the surprise is going to come. 444 00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:28,840 Speaker 8: That's not where the sensitivity to low interest rates is 445 00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:32,840 Speaker 8: coming from. It's everybody else that has those shrivel profit 446 00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:36,960 Speaker 8: margins that has those you know, depressed earnings expectations, who've 447 00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:40,040 Speaker 8: just come out of an earnings recession where valuations are 448 00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:42,640 Speaker 8: forty to fifty percent lower. That's where I think you're 449 00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:44,600 Speaker 8: going to get the bank of your buck in this 450 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:48,480 Speaker 8: sort of broadening ball market and potential changing leadership. 451 00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:50,680 Speaker 1: To sort of visit, we got to get Ben Laylor 452 00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:53,919 Speaker 1: on again. Next time Tottenham wins will get Ben Leablor on. 453 00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:54,800 Speaker 1: Ben Laylor. 454 00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:58,640 Speaker 2: Thank you so much with Bradesco this morning. Paul. 455 00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:01,520 Speaker 4: Your observation here, Yeah, I think, as you know, Claudia, 456 00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:06,359 Speaker 4: Sam Mark Zandi kind of highlighted here. It's still a strong, 457 00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:10,359 Speaker 4: fairly strong labor market, but slowing. I think Neil Duddo 458 00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:14,320 Speaker 4: is more embarrassing. Hey, the underlying weakness, I think Claudia 459 00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:16,240 Speaker 4: Slam is there as well. The underlying weakness is probably 460 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:19,679 Speaker 4: the more pronounced aspect of the labor market that the 461 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:24,360 Speaker 4: recent trends have been weakening, and those recent trends argue 462 00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:26,919 Speaker 4: for the FED to step up here. And whether it's 463 00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:29,720 Speaker 4: twenty five or fifty basis points, the market right now, 464 00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:32,320 Speaker 4: as our Bloomberg News is reporting, is pricing in a 465 00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:33,680 Speaker 4: fifty basis point rate cut. 466 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:38,480 Speaker 1: In September, Paulo out on YouTube, we are listening to witty, 467 00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:40,959 Speaker 1: smart not young people. 468 00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:45,280 Speaker 2: Okay this morning.
