I want to go back to 8 00:00:21,079 --> 00:00:23,360 Speaker 1: a statistic that really stood out to me, and it 9 00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:25,439 Speaker 1: was a little bit alarming, and it has gotten about 10 00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:29,080 Speaker 1: a bunch of pushback given the lack of testing. Andrew Cuomo, 11 00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:31,960 Speaker 1: governor of New York State, saying the hospitalization rate for 12 00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:35,800 Speaker 1: the coronavirus in New York State is fifteen to nineteen percent. 13 00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:40,479 Speaker 1: He was arguing for more capacity for hospital beds for ventilators, 14 00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:43,199 Speaker 1: and he was talking about the incredible strain it's going 15 00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:45,200 Speaker 1: to put on the healthcare ses. To me, the United 16 00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:49,400 Speaker 1: States joining US now is Andy Slavitt, former Acting Administrator 17 00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:51,760 Speaker 1: for Medicare and Medicaid Services. No one better to have 18 00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:56,320 Speaker 1: a frontline view on exactly how strained this could potentially be. Andy, 19 00:00:56,440 --> 00:00:58,840 Speaker 1: I want to first get your idea, get your thoughts 20 00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:02,960 Speaker 1: on that fifteen hospitalization rate. People are pushing back and 21 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:06,039 Speaker 1: saying that's sensational considering the fact that so many people 22 00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:08,440 Speaker 1: haven't been tested. Do you think that it is an 23 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:12,959 Speaker 1: accurate reflection of just how dire this virus is when 24 00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:17,520 Speaker 1: it does affect people and they do develop symptoms. So 25 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:19,960 Speaker 1: everybody is going to be hearing all sorts of data, 26 00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:23,720 Speaker 1: and we should all appreciate the fact that this is 27 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:27,039 Speaker 1: a novel virus. It hasn't been with us for that long, 28 00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:29,280 Speaker 1: and every data is a piece of dated only a 29 00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:32,920 Speaker 1: data point, and so over time will have I think 30 00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 1: reliable forms of data. But if you listen to this data, 31 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:41,880 Speaker 1: I think we should be closer to UM. I wouldn't 32 00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:44,120 Speaker 1: say anybody should panic, but we should be closer to 33 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:47,560 Speaker 1: panic than we should be to calm. On the scale 34 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:50,760 Speaker 1: of one to ten, Uh, we should be at an eight. 35 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:53,680 Speaker 1: We shouldn't be. So I tend to say every piece 36 00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:57,800 Speaker 1: of data that I see, UM, I want to understand 37 00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:02,320 Speaker 1: it and assume the channel until proven otherwise. Because in 38 00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:06,360 Speaker 1: this environment where you're where we have no immune system 39 00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:09,440 Speaker 1: for this virus, where a number of people have underlying 40 00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 1: medical conditions, where we have a number of seers who 41 00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 1: did whom this is a lethal condition. Better to be safe. 42 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:19,200 Speaker 1: And if we're wrong, and if the turns out to 43 00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:24,239 Speaker 1: be um, hallelujah, someone can go back and criticize the 44 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:27,000 Speaker 1: people who said eighteen percent later. But I certainly, I 45 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 1: certainly would rather behave on the much more cautious side. 46 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:34,519 Speaker 1: So Andy, just broadly defined, can you give us your 47 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 1: sense of kind of how you think our U s 48 00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:41,120 Speaker 1: healthcare system is prepared for what could be a surge 49 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 1: in patients uh, from this virus. So we're not prepared. 50 00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:50,120 Speaker 1: But but let me put that in context. Um. You 51 00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 1: know that that expression, um they didn't build the church 52 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 1: for for Easter Sunday as one that comes to mind. Um, 53 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:02,080 Speaker 1: you know if we built hospitals in New York eight 54 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:06,360 Speaker 1: times the size, uh, then we would be um. You know, 55 00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:09,080 Speaker 1: we know that wouldn't make a lot of sense. But 56 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 1: there are places where we should be better prepared, things 57 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 1: like surge capacity, the ability to bring hospitals, UM, ships, equipment, 58 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:22,640 Speaker 1: UM safety gear. Um. You know we should have been 59 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:24,640 Speaker 1: had we should have had much higher stockpiles of that. 60 00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:27,360 Speaker 1: I will tell you that those recommendations have been strongly 61 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:30,520 Speaker 1: made in certain quarters for a long long time, UM, 62 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:34,520 Speaker 1: and I think dismissed um candidly by this administration. Although 63 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 1: I'm not trying to take a shot at them. I 64 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 1: think it's just a fact um uh. But but I 65 00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 1: will also tell you that even if we had prepared UM, 66 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:48,440 Speaker 1: I still believe, even if we were better prepared, the 67 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:51,920 Speaker 1: scope of the virus as such that I think we 68 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 1: still would have been overwhelmed. So we're going to see 69 00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:58,800 Speaker 1: a lot of parts of our hospital system understrain, most 70 00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 1: particularly the people who work in the healthcare system on 71 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:05,480 Speaker 1: the front line, who I think are are really going 72 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 1: to end up in our real heroes in all of this, 73 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:12,720 Speaker 1: because they are going to be operating often without a playbook, UM, 74 00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 1: seeing a lot of things that is that are contagious, 75 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 1: without without the best protective gear at times, because our 76 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:21,480 Speaker 1: supplies are running running low, and and they're going to 77 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 1: be overwhelmed. And that group of people that I think 78 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:28,880 Speaker 1: we really have to demonstrate an immense amount of gratitude 79 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 1: for because they're really going to be the ones that 80 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:34,159 Speaker 1: are going to have to help us get through this andy. 81 00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 1: One other thing that Governor Cuomo said was that he 82 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 1: expects the virus to peak in New York State in 83 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:43,559 Speaker 1: forty five days, which seems like quite a long time 84 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 1: from now for it to peak. Can you give us 85 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:49,479 Speaker 1: a sense of if that is the case, what the 86 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:53,320 Speaker 1: scope of cases could potentially be in whether asking Americans 87 00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 1: to stay home actually will help alleviate that or at 88 00:04:56,760 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 1: least mitigate that. So it's really interes interesting. Uh. You 89 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:04,400 Speaker 1: you all of course have heard all of these expressions 90 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:08,719 Speaker 1: flattened the curve, right, all of America is becoming familiar 91 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:14,080 Speaker 1: with that expressions. Exactly. It's it's trending, and it's trending. 92 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:17,679 Speaker 1: Maybe there should be clothing lines called flattening your curves 93 00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 1: or something. But oh lord, exactly, we're gonna go all 94 00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:23,280 Speaker 1: kinds of fun places with this virus. We're going to 95 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:27,279 Speaker 1: have to have some humerum in my opinion. But um, 96 00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 1: the the the truth is the implication of that means 97 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:37,640 Speaker 1: we would rather it actually take longer then have it shorter. Uh. 98 00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:40,040 Speaker 1: And I know that that's a weird thing to get 99 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:42,960 Speaker 1: her hands around, because that means that the social disruption, 100 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 1: the economic disruption, we'll go on for longer. But if 101 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:52,520 Speaker 1: we if we socially isolate um, we will reduce the 102 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:55,680 Speaker 1: number of cases to your prior question that the health 103 00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 1: care system has to handle. But it will also mean 104 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 1: that this is going to go on for our longer 105 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:05,719 Speaker 1: a longer period of time. Uh and uh and and 106 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 1: and we should be okay with that because we will 107 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:12,240 Speaker 1: be able to build immunity to the virus eventually, UM 108 00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:18,680 Speaker 1: have some herd immunity, eventually have some uhum drugs that 109 00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:22,960 Speaker 1: can combat it. But um it only it will only work. 110 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 1: The only way it works is if people socially isolate. 111 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 1: And I hate that expression because I don't want people 112 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:32,039 Speaker 1: to socially isolate. I want people to physically isolate. But 113 00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:35,560 Speaker 1: it only works if people hashtag stay home or if 114 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:37,520 Speaker 1: you first day the ft home as is I've seen 115 00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:39,920 Speaker 1: trend to get on Twitter. That's the most important thing 116 00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 1: people can do right now. Andy, how about the testing. 117 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:46,200 Speaker 1: Where are we in terms of getting test kits broadly 118 00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:49,679 Speaker 1: disseminated across the country so we can really start getting 119 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 1: accurate count as to the scope of this. Well, candidly, 120 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:57,359 Speaker 1: we're well behind where we should be. UM. You know 121 00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:00,920 Speaker 1: the we had our first case the day as South 122 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:04,080 Speaker 1: Korea and their tests their tests were available ten days 123 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 1: prior to that first test. And we are. So we're 124 00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 1: roughly a month or more behind where we need to be. 125 00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 1: And now I believe we're doing all of the right 126 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:17,560 Speaker 1: things to ramp up production. I think you'll see production 127 00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:23,640 Speaker 1: double uh and test double across the country this week. Um, 128 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 1: And I think that's a good thing. Um, It'll will 129 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:28,840 Speaker 1: still be well short if you look at a per 130 00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 1: capita basis for the rest of the world, will still 131 00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 1: be in the last place. And then I will say this, Um, 132 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:38,840 Speaker 1: we will see I suspect we'll see a bump, but 133 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 1: we will our supply chain with things that allow us 134 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,400 Speaker 1: to do these tests, because it's not just a cute swab. 135 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 1: There's a bunch of things you need in the lab, 136 00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 1: re agents and machines and so forth. Those supplies are 137 00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:53,520 Speaker 1: in demand across the world and there's only so many 138 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:55,160 Speaker 1: of them and they can only be made so fast. 139 00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:58,960 Speaker 1: So I suspect we will have a surge in tests 140 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:00,880 Speaker 1: and that will be a good news. But I think 141 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:04,679 Speaker 1: they will then becoming shorts supply again. Andy, just talking 142 00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:07,760 Speaker 1: about hashtag flatten the curve and hashtags stay. They have 143 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:10,760 Speaker 1: home um and all the sort of social media presence 144 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 1: you know, there's sort of sort of gallows humor out there, 145 00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:16,120 Speaker 1: people coming up with innovative ways to pass the time 146 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:18,640 Speaker 1: in their homes as they isolate. But there's also talk 147 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:21,760 Speaker 1: about arise and anxiety and a and arise and sort 148 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:25,320 Speaker 1: of uh, this feeling of fear. And you said, you know, 149 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:30,600 Speaker 1: on the scale from panic to panic panic, Well, I mean, 150 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:33,320 Speaker 1: how can you can you give people a sense of Well, 151 00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:36,720 Speaker 1: perhaps if people take it really seriously, it won't have 152 00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 1: to be the catastrophe that you're saying. Well, look, this 153 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 1: will end, this will end, We will get through this 154 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:46,200 Speaker 1: the and we will have a period in our lives 155 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:50,440 Speaker 1: that will always look back on that will be um, 156 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 1: you know, will days, will it be ninety days, will 157 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:57,320 Speaker 1: let be underneated? Well, well well we don't know that now, 158 00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 1: but we'll know that, um, and we will always look back. Uh, 159 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:03,839 Speaker 1: so it will, it will be over. We should just 160 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:06,520 Speaker 1: be thinking about this is every life lost, just like 161 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:09,480 Speaker 1: every life life lost to the flu or a hard condition. Um, 162 00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:13,720 Speaker 1: we should try to prevent so. UM. That means some sacrifice, 163 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:18,000 Speaker 1: That means staying in, That means doing some things differently. 164 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 1: That means and I and with that comes from anxiety, 165 00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:25,839 Speaker 1: financial anxiety, social anxiety. UM, all of those things, and 166 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:30,880 Speaker 1: it's it's okay to to feel those things because the 167 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 1: future is uncertain while we're in it, right, we will 168 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:35,559 Speaker 1: get through this. We're gonna have to leave it there. 169 00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:37,160 Speaker 1: I could speak with you often and thank you so 170 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:39,440 Speaker 1: much for taking the time. Really appreciate it. Andy Slavitt, 171 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:43,920 Speaker 1: former Acting Administrator for Medicare and Medicaid Services, talking about 172 00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:50,839 Speaker 1: the situation facing the healthcare sector. This is bloomberg as 173 00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:53,720 Speaker 1: we look at the potential for a peak in New 174 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:56,439 Speaker 1: York State, one of the most heavily affected regions by 175 00:09:56,520 --> 00:10:00,480 Speaker 1: coronavirus spread UH in forty five days. That's alw long time. 176 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:04,760 Speaker 1: It's a long disruption, disruptive period, and I'm wondering on 177 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:08,640 Speaker 1: the market implications. This is the unknown and a lot 178 00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:10,960 Speaker 1: of people trying to game out when it's time to 179 00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 1: start getting back in as as people watch. Marcus Whipsaw 180 00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:17,199 Speaker 1: and Peter Sheer has been watching it and he's been 181 00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 1: doing an incredible job really monitoring not only the macro 182 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:26,199 Speaker 1: but also the micro from Academy Securities ahead of macro strategy. Peter, 183 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:29,840 Speaker 1: where are you in terms of the risk off field 184 00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:32,120 Speaker 1: that we've had in markets? The worst day in the 185 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:36,400 Speaker 1: SMP yesterday. Since seven, are we getting close to peak 186 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:40,000 Speaker 1: panic here? Yeah? So I like getting risk on Friday 187 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 1: ahead of the president. We clearly rallied in the weekends, 188 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:45,080 Speaker 1: told off and are lower than that. Now I would 189 00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 1: be adding a little bit of risk here, but I 190 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:50,320 Speaker 1: caution people. I think it's really a bet on DC 191 00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:53,280 Speaker 1: coming through with a very large stimulus program, probably in 192 00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:56,560 Speaker 1: the trillion dollar stimulus program, and maybe a side bet 193 00:10:56,920 --> 00:11:00,640 Speaker 1: that we make progress against the VIRU as fast than 194 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:05,199 Speaker 1: people expect. So interesting, Peter, So, I think we had 195 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:08,080 Speaker 1: the FED come in in a big way over the weekend. 196 00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:11,440 Speaker 1: What did you make of that? And you think, Uh, 197 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:13,520 Speaker 1: the Fed is doing all that it needs to do 198 00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:15,960 Speaker 1: here to try to stabilize markets. You know, I think 199 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:21,600 Speaker 1: the FED missed getting the commercial paper facility out on Sunday. Um, 200 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:24,320 Speaker 1: you know they've announced it today. One of my experiences 201 00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:28,200 Speaker 1: with the financial crisis was that they offer, not just 202 00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 1: the FED, but politicians everyone would kind of miss deadlines. 203 00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:34,800 Speaker 1: They would try and put in a firebreak, and once 204 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:37,240 Speaker 1: the fire had gone past that, the break did no good. 205 00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:40,640 Speaker 1: So I think we have to act more aggressively and 206 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:43,600 Speaker 1: be ahead of the things because I think market and 207 00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:48,120 Speaker 1: economic psychology kicks in and being just a little late 208 00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:50,360 Speaker 1: sometimes it's almost as bad as doing nothing at all. 209 00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:52,600 Speaker 1: And just to give you a little bit more detailed, 210 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:55,640 Speaker 1: the commercial paper facility is going to be that the 211 00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 1: Federal Reserve is arranging will be backed by ten billion 212 00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:01,360 Speaker 1: dollars from the try sury departments. It will be ten 213 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:05,880 Speaker 1: billion dollars of credit protection UH for this facility in 214 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:10,120 Speaker 1: order to lower the short term costs for companies looking 215 00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 1: to access the commercial paper market. I'm wondering, Peter. One 216 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 1: thing that you've done a really good job of is 217 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 1: looking at the technicles underpinning this, and a lot of 218 00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:19,240 Speaker 1: people are trying to figure out how much we're seeing 219 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:24,400 Speaker 1: just mass unwindes of risk are funds of other leverage strategies, 220 00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:27,559 Speaker 1: hedge funds, you know, is that really what has been 221 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:30,200 Speaker 1: driving the activity that we've been seeing. I think it 222 00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:32,360 Speaker 1: was a big part of last week. Um, you know. 223 00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:35,240 Speaker 1: I think this risk parity type strategy, which ranges from 224 00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:39,400 Speaker 1: the more sophisticated like a Bridgewater who uses commodities, stocks 225 00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:42,160 Speaker 1: and bonds, to less of this data ones where people 226 00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:45,560 Speaker 1: just own stocks versus bonds, they were getting hit. I 227 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:48,199 Speaker 1: think we are either done or very close to the 228 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:50,880 Speaker 1: end of that selling pressure coming from those funds, and 229 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:52,800 Speaker 1: those are bad because they're kind of like hitting these 230 00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 1: sell everything button. They get forced to sell stocks, bonds, 231 00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:58,080 Speaker 1: and commodities, so it feels like when you're in the 232 00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:00,560 Speaker 1: end of that. The thing I'm watching most closely right 233 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:04,760 Speaker 1: now is one to three year corporate bond paper. And 234 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:06,440 Speaker 1: you know, I think in golf they say, you know, 235 00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:08,920 Speaker 1: you drive for show and you put for dough. To me, 236 00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:12,480 Speaker 1: it's that short end that's really critical because that's what 237 00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:14,840 Speaker 1: people rely on for financing. That's to me why it 238 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:17,240 Speaker 1: was so important that the FED gets this commercial paper 239 00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:19,960 Speaker 1: facility up and running, that they're getting banks to board 240 00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 1: at the discount window again to alleviate pressure at that 241 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 1: front end, because that's really where you know, it's really 242 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:27,440 Speaker 1: exciting to talk about where the long dated bonds are, 243 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 1: but problems there are really really scary to me, and 244 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:34,120 Speaker 1: I think they can be addressed and they're being addressed. Peter, 245 00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:36,960 Speaker 1: are you seeing any capitulation in the market right now 246 00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:42,320 Speaker 1: or is it just too early? You know, we saw 247 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:45,200 Speaker 1: some capitulation I think last week, um and it was 248 00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:47,640 Speaker 1: a bit encouraging again on Friday, where you saw things 249 00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:50,160 Speaker 1: like the high yield market and leverage loan market not 250 00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:53,160 Speaker 1: get dragged around quite as badly by the stock market. 251 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:55,720 Speaker 1: Right now we're back to everything being hit hard again, 252 00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:59,400 Speaker 1: everything moving in tandem UM, credit spreads moving much wider 253 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:02,440 Speaker 1: as stocks struggle. Having said that, there's a bunch of 254 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:05,160 Speaker 1: new issues out today on the investment grade corporate bond market. 255 00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 1: If those can get placed, I think it's going to 256 00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:10,320 Speaker 1: show that there is this kind of cash on the sidelines. 257 00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:14,559 Speaker 1: Everyone's just waiting. But as a whole, you are really 258 00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 1: making a bet right now that DC is going to 259 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:19,160 Speaker 1: get its act together, because I am afraid if DC 260 00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:21,640 Speaker 1: doesn't get its act together, we have a very different 261 00:14:21,640 --> 00:14:24,200 Speaker 1: situation that financial crisis, because to me, this is a 262 00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:27,080 Speaker 1: bottom up problem, and it's going to be small businesses 263 00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:30,240 Speaker 1: and individuals losing their income because they're doing what they're 264 00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:32,760 Speaker 1: being told to by the government. And if that's not replaced, 265 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,560 Speaker 1: I think that trickles up very quickly as people don't 266 00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:37,840 Speaker 1: make rent payments, don't do this. And you know, we 267 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:40,640 Speaker 1: all look at that underemployment rate UM as well as 268 00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:43,560 Speaker 1: the unemployment rate. I think that underemployment rate could sky 269 00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:47,760 Speaker 1: rocket to financial crisis levels in a matter of weeks 270 00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:52,600 Speaker 1: if government doesn't act. Hey, Peter, we really appreciate your thoughts. 271 00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:55,880 Speaker 1: Peter to your ahead of macro strategies at Academy Securities 272 00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:58,400 Speaker 1: calling us on the phone giving us his thoughts here Lisa, 273 00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:00,480 Speaker 1: and thank you. It's really an issue you. I think 274 00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:02,520 Speaker 1: Peter really makes a good point there right at the end, 275 00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:04,840 Speaker 1: which is, uh, you know, despite that what we're hearing 276 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:06,680 Speaker 1: from Governor Cuomo about what's going on in the Tri 277 00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:09,840 Speaker 1: State area, really do need potentially, I think to what 278 00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:12,680 Speaker 1: the markets are telling us is a federal stimulus plan 279 00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:15,520 Speaker 1: uh to really um, you know, really address some of 280 00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:19,280 Speaker 1: the economic uh you know, issues that small businesses, medium 281 00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:22,400 Speaker 1: sized businesses are forcing. I also think it's interesting, he pinpointed, 282 00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:25,120 Speaker 1: the Exxon and Verizon issuance is coming to the investment 283 00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:27,640 Speaker 1: grade cripon market. It really it'll be interesting to see 284 00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:30,320 Speaker 1: how those issuances go, particularly for Exon and given the 285 00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:32,840 Speaker 1: fact that they were downgraded yesterday and the price of 286 00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:35,320 Speaker 1: oil is falling off a cliff, so it's an interesting 287 00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:39,040 Speaker 1: time to refinance. But Verizon also coming to market interesting 288 00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:41,160 Speaker 1: to see. I mean, there's a lot of cash supposedly 289 00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:43,600 Speaker 1: waiting to buy this stuff, although we've seen some massive 290 00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:46,000 Speaker 1: outflows record from here we have, and you know, it's 291 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:47,640 Speaker 1: just you know, a lot of stock. What I am 292 00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:49,760 Speaker 1: amazed at as you look at yesterday's trading, a lot 293 00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:52,040 Speaker 1: of stock was trading down at those levels. So you know, 294 00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:53,960 Speaker 1: a lot of activity in the marketplace, a lot of 295 00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:56,480 Speaker 1: volume in the marketplace. Uh. You wonder if this is 296 00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:59,040 Speaker 1: kind of setting some type of stabilization, some type of 297 00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:05,440 Speaker 1: floor we will see going forward. This is Bloomberg. We 298 00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:08,440 Speaker 1: are talking about China. That's one thing John mentioned that 299 00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:12,720 Speaker 1: that Blimber Economics just downgraded its expectations for the growth 300 00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:16,320 Speaker 1: and it's not that surprising giving the given the dismal 301 00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 1: numbers we got over the weekend out of China, which 302 00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:22,640 Speaker 1: raises a question about supply chains and just getting the 303 00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:25,400 Speaker 1: materials that companies in the United States and elsewhere in 304 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:29,240 Speaker 1: the world need in order to produce and sell their products. 305 00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:32,320 Speaker 1: Joining us now, Gorang shows Strey, Managing director Mergers and 306 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:37,120 Speaker 1: Acquisitions in Business services focused on logistics and transportation for 307 00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 1: Lincoln International. Gorong, I'd love to start with just how 308 00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 1: vast the disruption has been given the shutdowns that we 309 00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:48,280 Speaker 1: saw in China earlier this year. How disruptive has that 310 00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:51,760 Speaker 1: been to the supply chain? Sure, and it's certainly had 311 00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:54,520 Speaker 1: a profound impact on the global supply chain here in 312 00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:56,800 Speaker 1: particular in the first few months the year, and certainly 313 00:16:56,800 --> 00:17:00,360 Speaker 1: remains an involving in dynamic situation here. Uh. You know, 314 00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 1: it really did start over worries about sourcing product from 315 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:06,160 Speaker 1: China as they were forced to shut down production, particularly 316 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:09,600 Speaker 1: here in the US, as many of our manufacturers have 317 00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:14,639 Speaker 1: a significant amount of exposure to Chinese productions. Backed percent 318 00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:17,200 Speaker 1: of the Fortune On companies have Tier one suppliers that 319 00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:21,240 Speaker 1: are supplying parts directly into the US manufacturing process. And 320 00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:23,480 Speaker 1: you know, even more worrisome is virtually all of the 321 00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:27,720 Speaker 1: Fortune one companies are sourcing or have Tier two suppliers, 322 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:30,560 Speaker 1: all based in affected areas of China. I think, you know, 323 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:32,520 Speaker 1: at least for the first couple of months of the year, 324 00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:35,320 Speaker 1: most US companies were able to get by here with 325 00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:37,160 Speaker 1: a lot of the buffer stock that they had pre 326 00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:40,399 Speaker 1: bought and anticipation of a slowdown that typically occurs with 327 00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:42,400 Speaker 1: the Chinese New Year. I think what's been a little 328 00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:46,240 Speaker 1: bit more worrisome is that as China came back from 329 00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:48,879 Speaker 1: the holidays here, there's been some challenges really over the 330 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:51,960 Speaker 1: past few weeks um to really get goods out of 331 00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:54,920 Speaker 1: the country. So production is starting to slowly restart in 332 00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:58,359 Speaker 1: the country, but they're having challenges finding truck drivers and 333 00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:00,320 Speaker 1: getting through a lot of the height and levels of 334 00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:03,320 Speaker 1: screening that are required to get these products overseas. And 335 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:06,920 Speaker 1: certainly it's not just those suppliers and manufacturers that are 336 00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:09,760 Speaker 1: looking for Finnish goods from from China, but also those 337 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:12,080 Speaker 1: that are sourcing components that are required in production. So 338 00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:15,680 Speaker 1: now worries are over what does future production capacity look 339 00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:19,280 Speaker 1: like here in the US as well as globally here 340 00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:22,320 Speaker 1: if you can't get certain critical components that you're sourcing 341 00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:24,480 Speaker 1: from China. So I think this is really highlighted the 342 00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:28,080 Speaker 1: fact for many companies that were already re examining their 343 00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:30,760 Speaker 1: supply chains given the trade wars, do we need to 344 00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:34,160 Speaker 1: figure out alternate supplies outside of China going to other 345 00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:37,600 Speaker 1: countries like Vietnam, or in Europe, going more near sourcing 346 00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:41,200 Speaker 1: to Eastern Europe, or even in the US re re 347 00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:45,040 Speaker 1: igniting efforts to source products from Mexico. So I think 348 00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:49,040 Speaker 1: this will only heighten the level of attention that's being 349 00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:51,399 Speaker 1: put on making sure you have redundancy in the supply 350 00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:54,880 Speaker 1: chain and moving away from the reliance in China so 351 00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:56,960 Speaker 1: go wrong. How about here in the U. S. It's 352 00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,760 Speaker 1: very early days of trying of kind of this country 353 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,160 Speaker 1: of coming to grips with the virus and and shutting 354 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:04,320 Speaker 1: down in certain cities. Give us a sense of kind 355 00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:07,200 Speaker 1: of how the logistics set up here in the US 356 00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:10,960 Speaker 1: may play out from the I'm thinking the trucking companies, railroads, 357 00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:15,639 Speaker 1: what's the status there? Sure? Sure? And I think look, fortunately, um, 358 00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:18,520 Speaker 1: thus far we have been fairly resilient here, and you know, 359 00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:20,560 Speaker 1: there's been a lot of panic in terms of going 360 00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:23,960 Speaker 1: out there and stocking up UH inventories that you know, 361 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:26,760 Speaker 1: in terms of household goods. But um, I think the 362 00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:29,720 Speaker 1: longer term where here is, if this is more pervasive, 363 00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:33,719 Speaker 1: it's going to have an impact on unemployment here. You know, 364 00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:36,199 Speaker 1: if you look at the ports on the West coast, 365 00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:38,800 Speaker 1: for example, at the Port of Long Beach here, if 366 00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:42,080 Speaker 1: we start to see a prolonged shutdown, there's gonna be 367 00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:44,639 Speaker 1: millions of jobs at risk here if there's less cargo 368 00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:48,000 Speaker 1: that's coming across through those ports. We've had fourteen months 369 00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:50,959 Speaker 1: of consecutive declines and the shipments that are coming in 370 00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:54,000 Speaker 1: from overseas, and that is going to continue here for 371 00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:56,879 Speaker 1: most estimates here. And what that means is, you know, 372 00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:58,880 Speaker 1: as many as one out of nine people that are 373 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:02,160 Speaker 1: kind of in those jobs at the ports will potentially 374 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:04,960 Speaker 1: lose their jobs here. But then thinking about some of 375 00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:08,560 Speaker 1: the more critical supply chains that we need, including pharmaceuticals 376 00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:12,560 Speaker 1: and other electronics that may be going into healthcare equipment, 377 00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:14,919 Speaker 1: I think there's heightened efforts here in the US to 378 00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:19,239 Speaker 1: make sure that those supply chains remain unimpacted here. So 379 00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:21,480 Speaker 1: we are optimistic that that will be the case here, 380 00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:23,840 Speaker 1: And certainly it's getting a lot more attention than it 381 00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:26,399 Speaker 1: was getting here three or four weeks ago, when everyone's 382 00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:28,919 Speaker 1: attention was just not can we get product out of China? Now, 383 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:31,760 Speaker 1: let's really let's make sure our domestic supply chains remain 384 00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:34,439 Speaker 1: intact as well. Drawing Shot Street, thanks so much for 385 00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:36,720 Speaker 1: joining us to really appreciate your thoughts growing as a 386 00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:40,320 Speaker 1: managing director and head of Lincoln International's North American logistics. 387 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:45,040 Speaker 1: Let's bring in Max mess and he covers all things 388 00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:49,560 Speaker 1: healthcare related by Bloomberg Opinion and Max. I want to 389 00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:53,280 Speaker 1: start with that hospitalization rate of fifteen to nine percent. 390 00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:58,159 Speaker 1: I mean, is that an accurate kind of of of 391 00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:01,639 Speaker 1: rate or is it possible to actually know given the 392 00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:05,879 Speaker 1: fact that there isn't that widespread of testing. UM, you 393 00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:08,600 Speaker 1: know that that that rate is a little bit separate 394 00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:11,560 Speaker 1: from the testing it in the sense that these are 395 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:14,560 Speaker 1: you know, the number of cases that they actually see 396 00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:17,680 Speaker 1: that UM you know that that need to to actually 397 00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:20,680 Speaker 1: be admitted, that need that more intensive care, and that 398 00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:24,760 Speaker 1: that's not so far outside of the sort of range 399 00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:28,199 Speaker 1: of numbers we've seen in other countries UM, you know, 400 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:30,520 Speaker 1: like like China and Italy. UM. You know this this 401 00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:35,280 Speaker 1: is a disease that is genuinely serious for for significant 402 00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:38,840 Speaker 1: subsets of the population, both the elderly UM and people 403 00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:42,200 Speaker 1: that are immunocompromised without other conditions. You know, they they 404 00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:45,280 Speaker 1: have the potential of developed pneumonia. They will have trouble 405 00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:48,119 Speaker 1: breathing UM if they develop a bad case of this. 406 00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:52,119 Speaker 1: So there will be a significant portion of people that 407 00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:55,879 Speaker 1: we see that that are going to need to be hospitals. 408 00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:58,320 Speaker 1: Part of the reason that that rate is the way 409 00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:00,879 Speaker 1: it is, it's also that a lot of people to 410 00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 1: get the virus our cannon should stay home and that 411 00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:06,920 Speaker 1: that's really important for you know, making sure that we're 412 00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:11,560 Speaker 1: not overwhelming hospitals and um, you know, not not putting 413 00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:14,159 Speaker 1: undue strain. You know that these these people working in 414 00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:16,560 Speaker 1: the rs already are working under a lot of stress, 415 00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:20,600 Speaker 1: um and their their attention and beds should be devoted 416 00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:23,240 Speaker 1: to people that that really needed, so we can hopefully, 417 00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:27,639 Speaker 1: you know, keep if the hospital position rate is high, 418 00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:30,360 Speaker 1: bad thing, because those are the cases we're That means 419 00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:32,960 Speaker 1: we're seeing the cases that we need to see as 420 00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:36,840 Speaker 1: opposed to the majority of young and comparatively healthy people 421 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:39,760 Speaker 1: that even if they get the virus, it's not all 422 00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:43,040 Speaker 1: that essential that they run to treatment neuron to get 423 00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:46,479 Speaker 1: that they should monitor their symptoms, but the what they 424 00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:49,040 Speaker 1: should be doing is just staying home. So max I 425 00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:51,880 Speaker 1: was just mentioned to Lisa that the Governor Cuomo's really 426 00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:54,240 Speaker 1: putting a lot of focus on the hospitalization and the 427 00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:58,160 Speaker 1: potential scarcity of beds and hospital workers and the capacity 428 00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:00,880 Speaker 1: of the hospital system. Are you hearing that from other 429 00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:04,760 Speaker 1: parts of the country or other leaders, um, you know, 430 00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:09,200 Speaker 1: it's something that you hear constantly from people who study 431 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:14,760 Speaker 1: health policy and study epidemics. This is the the most 432 00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:19,560 Speaker 1: important thing. That's the swing point of this epidemic is 433 00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:24,119 Speaker 1: avoiding overwhelming hospitals. When you have too many people for 434 00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:27,920 Speaker 1: the number of beds and ventilators, something that we're seeing 435 00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:30,440 Speaker 1: in Italy, you end up having to ration them to 436 00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:34,119 Speaker 1: devoting those resources to the people that are most likely 437 00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:36,800 Speaker 1: to survive. That's not a choice that we want to 438 00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:40,720 Speaker 1: be making in America. That we want to force America 439 00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:42,800 Speaker 1: to make force doctors to if we want to have 440 00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:46,600 Speaker 1: the capacity to give everybody the best possible treatment and 441 00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:49,240 Speaker 1: the best possible chance of making it through, the only 442 00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:51,879 Speaker 1: way to do that is to slow the rate of 443 00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:56,200 Speaker 1: infection um so that we aren't getting so many cases 444 00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:59,240 Speaker 1: that we will get that that kind of overwhelming growth 445 00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:02,040 Speaker 1: that will be to toil overams. So yeah, that that's 446 00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:06,080 Speaker 1: absolutely the crucial issue and the fundament the thing that 447 00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:09,119 Speaker 1: all polishy all policy is and should be addressed at 448 00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:12,320 Speaker 1: at conbuiding Max Dison, thank you so much for being 449 00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:14,280 Speaker 1: with us.
