And what's 15 00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:03,600 Speaker 1: cool here is someone like maddest folks now over it 16 00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:07,080 Speaker 1: meant life. It's like it's like it's like one soda. 17 00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:09,280 Speaker 1: He went from the Padres to the Yankees. 18 00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:10,920 Speaker 2: Over with the New York Yankees. 19 00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:14,759 Speaker 1: Drew Madis gives me a research report from eight years ago. 20 00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:17,759 Speaker 1: Drew Madis, why are you pulling out a UBS report 21 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:21,839 Speaker 1: from eight years ago my three favorite canaries tweet for us. 22 00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:26,039 Speaker 3: Well, it's there's still some of the best things to 23 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:28,640 Speaker 3: look at in terms of whether the economy is improving 24 00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:32,720 Speaker 3: or getting worse. And unfortunately, what we're seeing in those 25 00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:38,040 Speaker 3: in those indicators, which are claims, the ism reports, and 26 00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:41,520 Speaker 3: core bank loans are all signs that the economy is 27 00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:44,400 Speaker 3: beginning to weaken, which I think has become more evident 28 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 3: in things. But you know, with the idea of kind 29 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 3: of the soft landing having taken hold or the no 30 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 3: landing having taken hold, this is just something that I 31 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 3: think points in the opposite direction and maybe suggests that, 32 00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:58,240 Speaker 3: you know, weakness is going to be forthcoming. 33 00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:00,960 Speaker 1: Well, we finally see it in the job report coming 34 00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 1: up here early June. 35 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:07,080 Speaker 3: I think we're going to see some weekend the jobs report. 36 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:10,760 Speaker 3: Our expectation is you're going to see the unemployment rate 37 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 3: move higher over time. And you know, once again, you know, 38 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:17,120 Speaker 3: we do expect the FED to cut interest rates, but 39 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:19,200 Speaker 3: we expect the FED to cut interest rates because we 40 00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:21,800 Speaker 3: expect the economy is going to be weakening. They're going 41 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:23,760 Speaker 3: to be cutting with inflation above their target. 42 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:28,399 Speaker 1: June seven, Elate Jobs report Paul Sweeney Change in non 43 00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 1: firm payables now one hundred and eighty thousand. 44 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:33,760 Speaker 4: Okay, survey. So, Drew, do you think the FED here? 45 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:36,440 Speaker 4: Do you think the Fed's kind of behind the curve 46 00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 4: a little bit here in terms of cutting interest rates? 47 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:40,800 Speaker 4: Or you know a lot of folks will come in 48 00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 4: here and talk to Tom and I and say, hey, 49 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:45,079 Speaker 4: they should just wait here. How do you think about it? 50 00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:48,840 Speaker 3: I mean, I think there's an argument for waiting. But 51 00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:51,000 Speaker 3: at the same point, you know, the Fen's pretty much 52 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:55,080 Speaker 3: always behind the curve. I mean, you know, there's no 53 00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:59,239 Speaker 3: point in putting, you know, a doghound, you know, against 54 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 3: the greyhound and backing the outcome to be any different, right, 55 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:03,639 Speaker 3: you know that the FED is the animal that they are, 56 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:06,800 Speaker 3: and they're going to be behind the curve. And the 57 00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 3: question is, you know, how, you know, how aggressive can 58 00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:11,919 Speaker 3: they be when they don't know where things are going? 59 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:14,800 Speaker 3: And I think the answer is that they need to 60 00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:17,320 Speaker 3: have a little bit more humility, which you know, I 61 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 3: think if they had had that in the first place, 62 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 3: we probably wouldn't have had the inflation rates that we've had. 63 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:26,800 Speaker 4: All right, So given that backdrop here again, rates likely 64 00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:30,079 Speaker 4: coming down at some point earning seem to be pretty 65 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:34,119 Speaker 4: solid here. That seems to be pretty constructive background for equities. 66 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 4: How do you guys think about that? 67 00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:40,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know the problem is kind of you know, 68 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:42,400 Speaker 3: how much risk do you want to take when it 69 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 3: seems like we're on the verge of a turn, and 70 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 3: where will that turn show up? And will we be 71 00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 3: will it be as obvious to everyone when it happens. 72 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 3: So you know, we've been in kind of a risk 73 00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:57,400 Speaker 3: off mode for a while now, and I think that 74 00:03:57,520 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 3: that's that surved us well. And I think you know 75 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,839 Speaker 3: probably where I would still be, although I will say, 76 00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:06,640 Speaker 3: you know, when you're when you're trying to figure out 77 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 3: at the turn where you're going to be, you know 78 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 3: there are there are places you can be where you 79 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 3: actually as soon as the turn happens, you want to 80 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 3: be looking at those places. And so you know, we're 81 00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:21,240 Speaker 3: trying to be or thinking about things in a more 82 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 3: nimble way and see, you know where the greatest missed 83 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:27,200 Speaker 3: pricings are in the economy. 84 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 1: Drew back to Colby College economics of a few years ago. 85 00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:34,320 Speaker 1: In your sterling career. There's a whole idea of aggregating 86 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 1: all the data together versus two, three, or even four Americas. 87 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 1: Are you disaggregating now? Are you looking at an America 88 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,120 Speaker 1: of haves and have nots? 89 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:48,600 Speaker 3: You know, I've always been a fan of keeping the aggregate, 90 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:52,680 Speaker 3: and the reason being is because you know, if you 91 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:55,200 Speaker 3: if you disaggregate in that way, you're basically saying that 92 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 3: one group of people can't do a job another group 93 00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 3: of people can do. And I think increasingly, uh, you know, 94 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:04,719 Speaker 3: we're seeing actually that you know, with new technologies, you know, 95 00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:07,120 Speaker 3: people can do things that you know, maybe they weren't 96 00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:12,760 Speaker 3: weren't possible before. The only reason to disaggregate now is 97 00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:15,640 Speaker 3: is because it seems like, you know, the savings rate 98 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 3: among one group of the higher end cohort income cohort 99 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 3: is really strong. Uh and and there's some excess money there. 100 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:28,159 Speaker 3: Uh And so we need to be if we're going 101 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:30,560 Speaker 3: to see weakness, it's going to be there first. Right. 102 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:34,160 Speaker 3: We already know there's weakness in certain other areas. But 103 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:36,560 Speaker 3: the people who drive the economy or the people who 104 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:40,080 Speaker 3: can change their savings rate. So you know, if if 105 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:43,360 Speaker 3: people are going in and they're getting either government support 106 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:45,360 Speaker 3: or they're spending one hundred percent of what they make, 107 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:48,320 Speaker 3: you know, those people don't have the ability to adjust 108 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 3: their their spending. They just adjust what they're spending on. 109 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:56,720 Speaker 3: The higher income cohorts have the ability to actually, you know, 110 00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 3: increase savings, decrease savings, which then boost the economy or 111 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:04,240 Speaker 3: reduces the economy. The good news for the FED, quite 112 00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 3: frankly is tenure yields are basically at the optimal point 113 00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:08,719 Speaker 3: to maximize spending. 114 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:12,479 Speaker 1: Interesting, where are they going to be in twelve months? 115 00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:14,279 Speaker 1: I mean, I mean that's the ultimate calling. 116 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 3: So we actually, like ski relatively stable around here. But 117 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:21,559 Speaker 3: you know, once again, though, if they go higher, people 118 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:24,640 Speaker 3: begin to save because they feel the need to. If 119 00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 3: they go lower, they actually need to save more because 120 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:30,800 Speaker 3: people think about retirement and they think about the yield 121 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 3: they are going to get in retirement, and so they 122 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:36,039 Speaker 3: adjust to try to basically get to an income stream 123 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,920 Speaker 3: and retirement. And that's the failure of the zero rate 124 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:41,479 Speaker 3: policy is that if you push rates too low, train 125 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 3: inhibit spending. 126 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:44,599 Speaker 2: Doramatis, thank you so much. 127 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:58,920 Speaker 1: With MetLife, Greg Daco joins right now, e y parthenon. 128 00:06:59,680 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 4: Greg. 129 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 1: It's a you know, quiescent maybe doesn't capture it. It's 130 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:07,920 Speaker 1: sort of an on plan report, but one point three 131 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 1: percent real GDP is that on the edge of stagflation. 132 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:16,080 Speaker 5: Now, I don't think it's on the edge of stagflation 133 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:18,840 Speaker 5: because of the composition of this GDP print. 134 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:20,040 Speaker 2: What we saw was. 135 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:23,880 Speaker 5: Again a very large trade drag, a drag from higher 136 00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:27,240 Speaker 5: net imports. That is not necessarily a bad thing. It 137 00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 5: indicates that there was still demand from a consumption perspective, 138 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:33,440 Speaker 5: from a business investment perspective, So I think I would 139 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 5: fade the headline GDP print, which is soft at one 140 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:40,320 Speaker 5: point three percent, and focus on final demand from private 141 00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 5: purchasers that is still trending around three percent. It's still 142 00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:46,880 Speaker 5: a robust economy, but we're seeing a little bit more 143 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:49,720 Speaker 5: scrutiny on the part of consumers in this high cost environment. 144 00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:51,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, but this is religion to me, folks. 145 00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:54,400 Speaker 1: We're talking domestic final sales as a general statement. It's 146 00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:57,240 Speaker 1: something you flunk any kind one oh one, Greg doctor 147 00:07:57,280 --> 00:07:59,840 Speaker 1: didn't flunk it. But the answer is you peel out 148 00:07:59,880 --> 00:08:02,880 Speaker 1: a sports you peel out the noise, maybe appeel out 149 00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 1: the silliness of inventory dynamics, and you got a run 150 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 1: rate in America that Paul Sweeney sees every weekend of 151 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,680 Speaker 1: like a three percent GDP, right, Greg. 152 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:15,040 Speaker 5: Yeah, you've got about three percent GDP growth when you 153 00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:17,960 Speaker 5: peel out to all those factors. I would also note 154 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 5: that today we got the GDI report that gross domestic 155 00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:24,400 Speaker 5: income number which rows one point five percent. So even 156 00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:27,920 Speaker 5: though you have to nuance some of the underlying factors 157 00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:30,920 Speaker 5: in terms of the headline GDP print, gross domestic income 158 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 5: continues to point towards that softening momentum in terms of 159 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 5: the economy. 160 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:36,719 Speaker 4: If you look at consumer. 161 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:40,760 Speaker 6: Spending data, also showing consumers exorciving more scrutiny, being more 162 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:43,360 Speaker 6: careful as to what they spend on, and you're seeing 163 00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:47,880 Speaker 6: the lower income consumers, younger generations, consumers that are more 164 00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:51,080 Speaker 6: indebted that are feeling the pressure at high interest rates 165 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:54,720 Speaker 6: and high prices and curbing their outlays in this environment. 166 00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:57,040 Speaker 5: So that's what I would expect to see as we 167 00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:58,200 Speaker 5: navigate into the second parl. 168 00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 1: As we do on surveillance, we go to the younger generation. 169 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:03,400 Speaker 1: Lisa Matteo, are you curbing your consumption? 170 00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:08,319 Speaker 7: I'm trying my very best. 171 00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 2: Going down in flames out. Thank you. That's the last 172 00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:12,240 Speaker 2: time we'll speak to the generation today. 173 00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:14,800 Speaker 4: Paul, Hey, Greg talk to us about kind of your 174 00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:16,640 Speaker 4: view of the consumer here. I'm just looking at some 175 00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 4: Cohal's numbers that came in weaker than expected. Target was 176 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:22,400 Speaker 4: also a little bit weak, but Walmart was okay. So 177 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:25,640 Speaker 4: I mean, how are you guys viewing the consumer out there? 178 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:28,679 Speaker 5: I think we have to depart a little bit from 179 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:30,959 Speaker 5: this view of the consumer. I think there are multiple 180 00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:34,360 Speaker 5: types of consumers, and we're increasingly seeing a bifurcation in 181 00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 5: the economy. We're seeing individuals at the lower end of 182 00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:40,160 Speaker 5: the income spectrum, those as I just mentioned, that have 183 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:43,719 Speaker 5: higher debt burdens, that are perhaps maxing out on their 184 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:47,760 Speaker 5: credit lines, that have larger debt amounts and perhaps less 185 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:50,760 Speaker 5: savings to buffer any type of slowdown in the labor market. 186 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:54,480 Speaker 5: Those are the ones that are a little bit more careful, 187 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:58,280 Speaker 5: more prudent with how they spend, that is gradually moving 188 00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:01,560 Speaker 5: up into the income labd And if we do see 189 00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:04,120 Speaker 5: and I'm not saying this will materialize, but if we 190 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:07,880 Speaker 5: do see more pronounced slow down in the labor market, 191 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:11,480 Speaker 5: that could pretend to slower income momentum and in turn 192 00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:15,840 Speaker 5: force even a more pronounced slowdown in consumer spending activity, 193 00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:18,960 Speaker 5: which by itself would actually be a good thing. On 194 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:22,000 Speaker 5: the inflation front, because it would promote those dift inflationary 195 00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:23,080 Speaker 5: burnts that we've been seeing. 196 00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:25,559 Speaker 4: All Right, Greg, given that that backdrop, do you think 197 00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:29,440 Speaker 4: the SPED should be cutting rates now or like a 198 00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:31,559 Speaker 4: lot of folks say, they should just be sitting on 199 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 4: the sidelines and wait, what do you think? 200 00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:36,319 Speaker 5: I think a lot of attention, perhaps too much attention, 201 00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:39,120 Speaker 5: has been given to this first rate cut. Nothing says 202 00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:41,240 Speaker 5: that once the FED starts to cut, or the ECB 203 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 5: or the Bank of England or the Bank of Canada, 204 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 5: they have to cut at every meeting or every other meeting. 205 00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:48,600 Speaker 5: Nothing is predetermined in this environment. But I do think 206 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:50,400 Speaker 5: that if you look at the broader picture and have 207 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:54,080 Speaker 5: more of a forward looking perspective, with this view of 208 00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:58,720 Speaker 5: the economy gradually slowing disinflationary pressures fill in the works, 209 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:02,040 Speaker 5: the FED could very well start easing monetary policy. 210 00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 4: Now. 211 00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:06,040 Speaker 5: Takes some time to evaluate how the economy is evolving. 212 00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:07,320 Speaker 6: But be on the right step. 213 00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:10,520 Speaker 5: In the case the economy slows faster than what has 214 00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:13,560 Speaker 5: been expected. We've been riding this good wave of robust 215 00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:16,960 Speaker 5: economic data, painless disinflation. I think we have to be 216 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:19,720 Speaker 5: very careful to assume that this will continue forever. We 217 00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:23,520 Speaker 5: are seeing signs of cost fatigue, high interest rates, more 218 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:27,120 Speaker 5: cautious business investment starting to weigh in the economy, and 219 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:28,000 Speaker 5: we have to be prepared. 220 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:32,920 Speaker 1: And now, folks home economics with Gregory doco, Ey, greg 221 00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:35,320 Speaker 1: this isn't the zeitgeist right now, and some of us 222 00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:35,880 Speaker 1: are living it. 223 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:37,640 Speaker 2: I'm going to be an amateur here. 224 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:44,120 Speaker 1: Renter's insurance is in CPI, but homeowner's insurance sort of 225 00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:48,800 Speaker 1: kind of like is not calculated in CPI. And I 226 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:51,880 Speaker 1: go to CPS reporting four or five, six months ago. 227 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:55,240 Speaker 1: The basic idea that ninety percent of the homes in 228 00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:58,800 Speaker 1: New Jersey's Ocean County and nearly sixty percent of the 229 00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:02,839 Speaker 1: homes in Monmouth County all right risk of higher insurance premiums. 230 00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 1: We go to our New Jersey premium expert, Paul Sweeney. 231 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:11,240 Speaker 1: What premium is homeowners premium right now in the premium 232 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 1: state of New Jersey. 233 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:15,839 Speaker 4: And I'm a solid five blocks from the beach, so 234 00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:19,520 Speaker 4: I'm paying my fair share. My former home in California toime, 235 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:23,360 Speaker 4: it was in a fire area, so I was covered 236 00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:25,760 Speaker 4: with regular insurance until about three or four years ago, 237 00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:28,720 Speaker 4: and they said nope, you're now in the fire area. 238 00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:30,880 Speaker 4: So I had to go to Lloyd's of London to 239 00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:32,599 Speaker 4: get insurance, did you yeah? I mean those are the 240 00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:36,000 Speaker 4: people that ensure ships that go like in the Red Sea. 241 00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:38,800 Speaker 1: Did you stop by Gregs and Heaven and the Chase? 242 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:42,800 Speaker 1: Craig Doco, this is ridiculous homeowner's insurance. A guy like 243 00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:45,400 Speaker 1: Michael Barr has been play crushed. 244 00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:48,559 Speaker 2: Was six deer in the backyard from a homeowner's insurance? 245 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:49,160 Speaker 2: Greig Doco? 246 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:52,200 Speaker 1: How do we put homeowners insurance that we're all getting 247 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:54,119 Speaker 1: killed on into CPI? 248 00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:57,360 Speaker 5: I think we have to be very careful with insurance 249 00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:02,400 Speaker 5: in general, both homeowner insurance and car insurance. And wonder 250 00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:05,080 Speaker 5: whether these are the types of pressures that the FED 251 00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:08,320 Speaker 5: should be fighting. Should the FED be focused on these 252 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:13,120 Speaker 5: components of CPI, inflation of inflation in general as to 253 00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:16,600 Speaker 5: essentially try to curb inflation and bring inflation back towards 254 00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:19,880 Speaker 5: that two percent target. There are open questions as to 255 00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:23,480 Speaker 5: whether the FED wants to squeeze other components to offset 256 00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:25,160 Speaker 5: the fact that they can't control that. 257 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:29,880 Speaker 1: There's no textbook you or I studied that says the 258 00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:34,480 Speaker 1: FED can surgically control selected inflation items. 259 00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:38,439 Speaker 5: Exactly, and you've probably given the blunt tools and the 260 00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:41,319 Speaker 5: uncertain lags in terms of monetary policy. That's why I'm 261 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:44,440 Speaker 5: not necessarily sure that you want to have monetary palsy 262 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:47,600 Speaker 5: remain higher for longer, tighter for longer. In this type 263 00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:50,679 Speaker 5: of environment where a lot a large part of what's 264 00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:54,800 Speaker 5: driving inflation today is structural by nature. Homeowner insurance prices 265 00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:58,880 Speaker 5: are not rising because of inflationary dynamics, rather because you 266 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:02,320 Speaker 5: have climate change, you have conditions that are shifting. Same 267 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:05,320 Speaker 5: on the automotive front, not necessarily sure that the fact 268 00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 5: can do much about these types of inflation dynamics. 269 00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:09,800 Speaker 1: On the anniversary of the release of Just What I 270 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:14,480 Speaker 1: Needed by the Cars from Boston University and Ey Craig Daco, 271 00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:17,439 Speaker 1: thank you so much, just absolutely brilliant different. 272 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:23,080 Speaker 2: This timely interview coming. 273 00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 1: Up, we are going to consider the legal issues of 274 00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:30,200 Speaker 1: Lower Manhattan. David Gerr there, I think June Grosso's is 275 00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:31,840 Speaker 1: June's scheduled to be with us as well. 276 00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:32,960 Speaker 2: Did we talk to her people? 277 00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:36,280 Speaker 4: I think do you think she does the afternoon shift? 278 00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:36,760 Speaker 2: I don't know. 279 00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:39,400 Speaker 4: Studio here right now. 280 00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:43,320 Speaker 1: Ethan Devit joins Chief Global Strategist Manetta Group, with a 281 00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:47,880 Speaker 1: really really solid understanding of the turn of markets out 282 00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:51,440 Speaker 1: of the United Kingdom. Thank you so much for joining 283 00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:55,920 Speaker 1: right now. Can we sustain global nominal GDP? Can we 284 00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 1: keep this good feeling going? 285 00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:01,160 Speaker 8: It's going to be difficult to sustain that. I mean, 286 00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:04,960 Speaker 8: we clearly have exceeded expectations in terms of where GDP 287 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:07,880 Speaker 8: has been, coming down to one point three percent. I'd 288 00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:09,840 Speaker 8: say that's in the category of nothing to write home 289 00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:13,280 Speaker 8: about right now. So it's definitely is more muted and 290 00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:16,200 Speaker 8: perhaps more in line with how the economy should feel 291 00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:19,520 Speaker 8: after it's just experienced a soft landing. We know that 292 00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:22,560 Speaker 8: it's quite mixed. That number as a top line number 293 00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:26,640 Speaker 8: will perhaps distort quite a bit of variability behind the 294 00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:30,200 Speaker 8: scenes among different sectors. So no, I'd say we're pretty 295 00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:32,720 Speaker 8: much holding on by the skin of our teeth to 296 00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:34,040 Speaker 8: a positive number right now. 297 00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:37,760 Speaker 1: How do you define stagflation? Do we know how Jamie 298 00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:38,760 Speaker 1: Diamond defines it? 299 00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:39,440 Speaker 2: Paul, I don't think. 300 00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:39,840 Speaker 4: I don't. 301 00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 1: People throw this thing around, and I mean we're talking 302 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:48,240 Speaker 1: here with somebody with some qualifications including Trinity College, Dublin, 303 00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:51,680 Speaker 1: a school called Oxford. You know, it's just done pretty 304 00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:57,160 Speaker 1: pretty insient in France. I mean, how do you define stagflation? 305 00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:00,240 Speaker 8: Well, at So's I would like to say, I was 306 00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:03,960 Speaker 8: born in the era when it was last popular. It's 307 00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:07,560 Speaker 8: stagnation plus inflation. That's my understanding. It's been forecast for 308 00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:10,640 Speaker 8: most of my life, but it hasn't actually transpired. And 309 00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:14,520 Speaker 8: I'd say now we're hardly on either side of it. 310 00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:19,000 Speaker 8: We're seeing neither stagnation nor are we seeing persistent inflation 311 00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:22,360 Speaker 8: any longer. So I'd say that term has perhaps lost 312 00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:25,680 Speaker 8: its purpose just at the moment. We have other problems 313 00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:28,320 Speaker 8: certainly ahead of us, and that is is how we 314 00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:31,880 Speaker 8: deal with perhaps not having had this fallout, not having 315 00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:35,160 Speaker 8: had this recession. You know, how real essentially is this 316 00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:38,960 Speaker 8: growth you mean, and how sustainable is that? But I'd 317 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:41,560 Speaker 8: say inflation for now somewhat in the rear view mirror. 318 00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:45,480 Speaker 4: All right, If that's in the rearview mirror. Even as 319 00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:49,520 Speaker 4: a chief global market strategist, where do you see opportunities 320 00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:51,080 Speaker 4: on a global scale. 321 00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:52,880 Speaker 9: Well, it's interesting. 322 00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:55,040 Speaker 8: We've always been global investors, and that has been a 323 00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:57,920 Speaker 8: very difficult position to maintain because we have had high 324 00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:00,880 Speaker 8: conviction outside the US, even at a time when the 325 00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:03,520 Speaker 8: dollar was strong and there was persistent under performance. So 326 00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:05,560 Speaker 8: what we are cheered to see is that there has 327 00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:08,160 Speaker 8: been this broadening of the market strength, and we still 328 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:10,199 Speaker 8: see that even though that there is there's been a 329 00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:12,880 Speaker 8: come back in the last few days. We can see 330 00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:15,440 Speaker 8: that there has been a broadening beyond tech, a broadening 331 00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:18,399 Speaker 8: beyond large cap only into mid cap and small cap, 332 00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:21,880 Speaker 8: and certainly beyond the US. We've seen some decent performance 333 00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:24,400 Speaker 8: out of Europe, decent performance out of the UK finally 334 00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:27,560 Speaker 8: after lagging for about fourteen months there, and then of 335 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:32,040 Speaker 8: course stellar performance from Japan, and a resurrection of hope 336 00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:35,440 Speaker 8: and expectation around China post COVID and post some of 337 00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:38,280 Speaker 8: that overhang. So I'd say we're seeing this kind of 338 00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:42,800 Speaker 8: commonality now of themes on a global basis. Where do 339 00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 8: we see opportunity. We see it in the divergence in 340 00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:48,160 Speaker 8: the fact that the dollar cannot stay long forever. We've 341 00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:51,160 Speaker 8: seen some weakening there. We start to see divergence among 342 00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:54,080 Speaker 8: central banks and how they're likely to perform. Who's going 343 00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:55,840 Speaker 8: to go quickly on as a perform I mean, what 344 00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:57,840 Speaker 8: they're likely to do in terms of the interest rates. 345 00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:01,520 Speaker 8: ECB likely to go before either Bank of England or 346 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:04,800 Speaker 8: the fed that's leading to some divergence which will manifest 347 00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:07,280 Speaker 8: in the currencies. So that's where we're seeing it. And 348 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:09,840 Speaker 8: then of course you have single stock areas like say 349 00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:13,080 Speaker 8: the Novo Nordisks of this world that clearly are stellar 350 00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:16,320 Speaker 8: success stories. And if you do not have global exposure, 351 00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:19,359 Speaker 8: you do not have the optionality that exposure to that 352 00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:19,919 Speaker 8: would give you. 353 00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:22,640 Speaker 4: But I think if if I were a portfolio manager, 354 00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:25,159 Speaker 4: even I think I'd be very lazy. I think what 355 00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:27,720 Speaker 4: I would do is just go by big tech and 356 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:29,240 Speaker 4: then stick my head in the send and hope for 357 00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:31,879 Speaker 4: the best. I mean, and that's kind of worked for me. 358 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:35,399 Speaker 8: I guess we should never underestimate what's sitting in a 359 00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:37,239 Speaker 8: room and doing nothing, I think, which is always been 360 00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:40,119 Speaker 8: perhaps the good response in riding out some of this volatility. 361 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:42,920 Speaker 8: The problem with that is this is a momentum trait, 362 00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:46,480 Speaker 8: and chasing momentum has often ended in tears for investors. 363 00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:49,159 Speaker 8: So we have not been too tactical, try to be 364 00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:52,399 Speaker 8: too clever around this momentum. We're even seeing signs of 365 00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:55,520 Speaker 8: that spending is highly selective right now that if we 366 00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:59,719 Speaker 8: look at CAPEX beyond spending say on cybersecurity and on 367 00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:03,360 Speaker 8: tech or on AI investments. Ppex is actually coming down 368 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:06,120 Speaker 8: in other areas. So that's the story for corporates, that's 369 00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:09,240 Speaker 8: the story for consumers. We see that in the salesforce numbers, 370 00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:12,320 Speaker 8: in the American airlines numbers, and we're going we're interesting 371 00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:14,240 Speaker 8: to see what Costco comes out with today. But I 372 00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 8: suspect on the food side people are still spending well, 373 00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:19,600 Speaker 8: but selective spending is the order of the day, So 374 00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:21,600 Speaker 8: there will be some cracks in the AI. 375 00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:23,399 Speaker 9: Theisis because quite frankly. 376 00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:25,560 Speaker 8: No one really knows where we're going with this in 377 00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:28,320 Speaker 8: terms of its impact. There's a lot of hype and momentum, 378 00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:32,280 Speaker 8: so all in there would be a precarious position across. 379 00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:35,600 Speaker 1: A kitchen table and Ethan, I mean in the United Kingdom, 380 00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:37,920 Speaker 1: you've brought in some Gregs, the cheese. 381 00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:41,080 Speaker 2: And the onion roll, and you're there with tea not coffee. 382 00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:42,879 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, brown stuff. 383 00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:46,359 Speaker 1: But if you're there across a kitchen table right now 384 00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:50,800 Speaker 1: and you've missed this equity surge, how do you get 385 00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:54,000 Speaker 1: into the market into the summer of twenty twenty four? 386 00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 8: Great question, Well, first question, you get in how you 387 00:19:57,320 --> 00:20:00,359 Speaker 8: always get in, which is gradually and staggering, and I 388 00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:02,679 Speaker 8: don't mean staggering as if you consume too much of 389 00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:05,600 Speaker 8: that ale, but you know staggering and the way we 390 00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:07,399 Speaker 8: all at all a cost averaging, and that that is 391 00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:10,919 Speaker 8: of course how you do it. You definitely want to 392 00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:14,520 Speaker 8: have that spread out around the time of a geopolitical event. 393 00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:17,240 Speaker 8: We have elections in the UK on Independence Day on 394 00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:19,640 Speaker 8: the fourth of July, There'll be elections here in early 395 00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:22,119 Speaker 8: November in the US and early November, so clearly we 396 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:25,119 Speaker 8: need to be mindful that those events are likely to 397 00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:27,719 Speaker 8: cause some volatility in markets, and we're already seeing that 398 00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:31,560 Speaker 8: in the volatility and fixed income that will manifest inequity markets. 399 00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:34,520 Speaker 8: So you stagger entry. You then make sure that it 400 00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:37,280 Speaker 8: is broad based across sectors. You don't try to be 401 00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:40,600 Speaker 8: too tactical, because ultimately we can't predict where different sectors 402 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:42,960 Speaker 8: are going to be, but we do know that certainly 403 00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 8: by the way Passive is performing, that is certainly a 404 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:48,800 Speaker 8: broad based exposure is the way to be even devid. 405 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:51,480 Speaker 2: Thank you so much. Chief Global Strategus Minetta Group. Just 406 00:20:51,560 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 2: love to have her on this morning. You tell you 407 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:07,399 Speaker 2: look at the front pages. She's never been in a 408 00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:09,280 Speaker 2: golden Goose. But boy does she have some. 409 00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 7: Newspaper stories to that will everywhere those given word. 410 00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:15,600 Speaker 9: Yeah, all right, We're gonna start with this story. 411 00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:18,200 Speaker 7: It came out yesterday the New York Times, CNBC reporting 412 00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:22,760 Speaker 7: Nelson Peltz no longer an investor in Disney. You remember 413 00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:25,040 Speaker 7: the battle to get on Disney's board, right, He controlled 414 00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:28,240 Speaker 7: three and a half billion dollars in Disney snock, So 415 00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:30,320 Speaker 7: this is kind of taking that pressure off Disney. So 416 00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:33,120 Speaker 7: a big part of his chunk was owned by Ike 417 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:35,679 Speaker 7: Pearl Mutter. He's a former chairman of Marvel Entertainment. So 418 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:38,439 Speaker 7: Sorcerers saying that Pelts has now sold off his. 419 00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:41,160 Speaker 9: Portion of those shares. But here's the thing. 420 00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:43,720 Speaker 7: I mean, he's not going away empty handed because Disney 421 00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:47,440 Speaker 7: stocks risn't about fifteen percent in the past year. SORCER's 422 00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:49,440 Speaker 7: saying he sold his Disney snock at one hundred and 423 00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:50,680 Speaker 7: twenty dollars a ship. 424 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:52,000 Speaker 2: I'll jump in here. 425 00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:57,320 Speaker 1: Ten year return on Disney is three point seventy five 426 00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:01,280 Speaker 1: percent per year yep, for the last ten years. What 427 00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:03,640 Speaker 1: Pelts got out of this with a profit, right he did? 428 00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:04,200 Speaker 4: It was amazing. 429 00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:06,200 Speaker 2: Did Eiger get out of this with a proct. 430 00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:09,320 Speaker 4: Well still to be seen at you know, Al from Jersey. 431 00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:11,280 Speaker 4: I'm not sure if he came out with a profit either. 432 00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 4: But again, this is just a real challenging issue for 433 00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:17,560 Speaker 4: Disney and for the meat industry in general. Tom. They're 434 00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:19,800 Speaker 4: trying to figure out how do they make a business 435 00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:20,119 Speaker 4: out of this. 436 00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 1: Stream I've always said this someday when Lisa helped me here. 437 00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:24,920 Speaker 1: They all came out with the streaming and I'm about 438 00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:27,240 Speaker 1: ready to cancel two or three of them, and I'm 439 00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 1: going mental this weekend. 440 00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:30,560 Speaker 2: But the bottom line is Disney. 441 00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:34,240 Speaker 1: I look at is okay, Star Wars and lots of 442 00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:36,080 Speaker 1: Cinderella and all the rest for kids. 443 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:38,639 Speaker 2: What does the new Disney look like? 444 00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:41,600 Speaker 4: I think the new Disney looks like a theme park 445 00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:43,760 Speaker 4: company with some media assets. No, but I mean the 446 00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:45,199 Speaker 4: streaming service streaming services. 447 00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:47,000 Speaker 2: Look at the chick lits on your TV. 448 00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:50,439 Speaker 4: Well, yeah, I know Hulu, I know, I know Netflix. 449 00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:51,760 Speaker 2: What's Disney? 450 00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:54,320 Speaker 7: Well, the Mandalorian is their big push too, I mean yeah, 451 00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:55,040 Speaker 7: Star Wars. 452 00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:58,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's all the franchisees, Like, yeah, they're gonna try 453 00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:00,520 Speaker 4: to milk their franchises as they should because they have 454 00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:04,880 Speaker 4: their best franchises in Hollywood. But even that they've seen 455 00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:07,000 Speaker 4: some pushback on some of their franchises that maybe they've 456 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:09,760 Speaker 4: overdone it, oversaturated it, so they pushed some of those 457 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 4: movie releases back. But Nelson Peltz, he made a couple 458 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:14,000 Speaker 4: shekels on that investment. 459 00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:19,320 Speaker 7: Yeah for next Okay, you know that big ginormous residential 460 00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:21,120 Speaker 7: tower four thirty two Park. 461 00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:22,720 Speaker 9: Okay, it's tall, it's thin. 462 00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:26,960 Speaker 4: Central Park, if you're lying in Central Park, shortly. 463 00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:29,760 Speaker 7: The tallest residential building in the Western Hemisphere. 464 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:33,720 Speaker 9: Okay, it had that. It had people like Jennifer Lopez 465 00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:37,280 Speaker 9: lived there. Okay, so it had his big reputation. But 466 00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:39,520 Speaker 9: now apparently it's going through some problems. 467 00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:43,119 Speaker 7: It had a twenty twenty one lawsuit that Condominimum Board 468 00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:46,879 Speaker 7: that says there were noise issues, leaks, malfunctioning elevators. So 469 00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:48,800 Speaker 7: the problem is that a lot of the people who 470 00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:51,359 Speaker 7: owned are now trying to get out of it, and 471 00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:54,320 Speaker 7: they're lowering their prices. So since the lawsuit, there's been 472 00:23:54,359 --> 00:23:57,240 Speaker 7: a number of units for sale, homeowners unloading properties for 473 00:23:57,280 --> 00:23:59,800 Speaker 7: a loss, even would be sellers cutting prices. 474 00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:02,159 Speaker 4: I'm looking for a unit there for Tom Keane. The 475 00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:06,119 Speaker 4: Building's pen House. Building's Penhouse was recently a discount to 476 00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:08,480 Speaker 4: one hundred and five million, down from the original asker 477 00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:10,320 Speaker 4: price one hundred and sixty nine million. So I think 478 00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:12,920 Speaker 4: we're getting down into the TK level here to get 479 00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:15,439 Speaker 4: the Penhouse, which does have phenomenal use. 480 00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:17,960 Speaker 1: That's great about it is if you're there and I 481 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:20,479 Speaker 1: can take the Aston Martin across the street to the 482 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:21,680 Speaker 1: Eston Martin dealer show. 483 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:23,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, there you go. Convenience. 484 00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:25,920 Speaker 1: But this building for those of you across the nation, 485 00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:29,560 Speaker 1: this building is on Fancy Park Avenue, right down the 486 00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:34,040 Speaker 1: street from James Diamond's new tower, farther up from Griffin's 487 00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:36,359 Speaker 1: Tower to be built over the next six years. The 488 00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:39,480 Speaker 1: other towers Paul are sort of in the middle of nowhere. 489 00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:41,600 Speaker 4: In fifty seven. Yeah, I don't get it. And again, 490 00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:45,159 Speaker 4: if you're sitting if you're literally lying down in the 491 00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:48,440 Speaker 4: in the in the park Central Park catching some rays 492 00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:52,200 Speaker 4: on a summer day, the sun will be blocked by 493 00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:54,280 Speaker 4: some of these buildings. It's just ridiculous. 494 00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:56,920 Speaker 9: I mean, it's just the whole landscape of the sky line. 495 00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:01,359 Speaker 2: Don't get me gone. Yeah, I'll get next. 496 00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:03,680 Speaker 4: Let's move on, all right. 497 00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:06,359 Speaker 7: So how about this apple looking to kind of set 498 00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:08,960 Speaker 7: aside its rivalry with Android because they want to put 499 00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:13,040 Speaker 7: Apple TV Plus possibly onto androids. 500 00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:15,040 Speaker 9: So this is a big thing. Bloomberg is saying. 501 00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:17,120 Speaker 7: There was a job posting that shows they were looking 502 00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:19,399 Speaker 7: for the senior engineer to help build a television and 503 00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:22,399 Speaker 7: sports app for Android, and the reason is because it 504 00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:24,680 Speaker 7: competes with the iOS platform. So this is a big 505 00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:25,760 Speaker 7: thing for Apple. 506 00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:29,440 Speaker 9: To go onto an Android. So that's what they're talking about. 507 00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:32,719 Speaker 7: But they never Apple tv plus never talks about how 508 00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:35,680 Speaker 7: many subscribers they have or how much revenue. But Android 509 00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:37,880 Speaker 7: could really give it that boost because Android actually has 510 00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:40,760 Speaker 7: more users globally Apple. 511 00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:43,880 Speaker 4: In the Sweeney household, we have one of our offspring 512 00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:46,320 Speaker 4: is Android and the rest of the staple. Yeah, just one. 513 00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:50,679 Speaker 4: And so he's shunned.

No, maybe two hours before bed 533 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:35,240 Speaker 7: to turn it off because it can.
