Where is your SMP target And 17 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:14,080 Speaker 2: with the report of disinflation and sluggish retail sales, does 18 00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:16,880 Speaker 2: that make you move it up? Can we make some 19 00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:19,160 Speaker 2: news here on SMP six thousand? 20 00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:22,280 Speaker 3: Well, I've been actually getting a lot of people asking me, 21 00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:24,160 Speaker 3: am I going to raise my numbers? And I thought 22 00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:26,560 Speaker 3: my numbers are pretty aggressive about a year ago. 23 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:28,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, but you're on surveillance now, so we got to 24 00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:29,080 Speaker 2: make some news. 25 00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:32,240 Speaker 3: Well we were fifty. You know, my target is still 26 00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:35,480 Speaker 3: fifty four hundred. I still use it, but it's a bullmarket, 27 00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:38,319 Speaker 3: you know. I can't time it exactly and precisely, but 28 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:41,040 Speaker 3: I think we're heading towards six thousand by next year 29 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:43,840 Speaker 3: and sixty five hundred the year after that. So that's 30 00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 3: a twenty five percent increase. 31 00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 2: My great theme, and I say this to the ds 32 00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 2: Edyard Denny, ed Hymen and others. My mantra from my 33 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 2: father is corporations adapt and adjust. Right, How are corporations 34 00:01:56,560 --> 00:02:00,680 Speaker 2: adapting and adjusting to ed Yard Denny's roaring twenties? 35 00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:03,280 Speaker 3: Well, I think you're seeing a tremendous amount of spending 36 00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:07,360 Speaker 3: on technology, not just number one. Well, you know, if 37 00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 3: you look at capital spending in current dollars, fifty percent 38 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:14,480 Speaker 3: of that now is going to technology capital spending. And 39 00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:18,160 Speaker 3: that's an understatement because it doesn't include things like trucks. 40 00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 3: I mean, why would truck be you know it? Well, 41 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 3: the truck is the device, and the logistics software is 42 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:27,480 Speaker 3: what runs it. There, everything's technology. So my pet theory 43 00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 3: here is that when you look at the stock market, 44 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:32,400 Speaker 3: you have to think of every stock as a technology company. 45 00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:34,640 Speaker 3: They're either making it or using it. If they're not 46 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:35,840 Speaker 3: using it, they're going to lose it. 47 00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:37,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a great point. 48 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 5: How can this retail sales number our Jersey was suggesting, 49 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,440 Speaker 5: that's what the market's focusing on. Again, the Retail Sales 50 00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:45,959 Speaker 5: Control Group came in it negative zero point three percent. 51 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 5: Consensus was where positive zero point one percent last period 52 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:52,000 Speaker 5: was actually one percent, So. 53 00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:53,880 Speaker 4: A real fall off there. What's your view of the 54 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:55,760 Speaker 4: consumer ad and how do you think that the well 55 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:56,560 Speaker 4: looking at. 56 00:02:56,480 --> 00:03:00,160 Speaker 3: The conser I think it's important to remember when the these 57 00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:04,080 Speaker 3: numbers come out that it's merchandise, it's goods. And what's 58 00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:08,240 Speaker 3: been interesting is we had this buying binge coming out 59 00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:11,800 Speaker 3: of the pandemic lockdowns and people couldn't buy services, so 60 00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:15,800 Speaker 3: they bought a tremendous amount of goods. And then they 61 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:19,639 Speaker 3: they didn't stop buying goods, they just didn't increase their purchases. 62 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,680 Speaker 3: So purchases of goods is still at an all time record, 63 00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,440 Speaker 3: I had just been kind of sluggish flat for the 64 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 3: past couple of years. Meanwhile, services is absolutely booming, as 65 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 3: we all know if you go to the airport for example, 66 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:33,279 Speaker 3: or restaurants with you Amana. 67 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,240 Speaker 2: Grey here in this room, folks ed Yard Denny with 68 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,240 Speaker 2: this here with futures up twenty seven off of sluggish 69 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 2: retail report in Netflix right now, there's this spectacular black 70 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 2: and white series called Ripley. I saw it, you thought yes, 71 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 2: another one early in it is the communication that you 72 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:53,400 Speaker 2: and I knew years ago pre technology of the mom 73 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 2: Blanc meister Struck one nine really nine hundred dollars. It's 74 00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 2: a big, ugly mud block that only the rich kids had. 75 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 2: That's when we were in school. Now we've got yesterday, 76 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 2: Google coming out right with this incredible and gene Monster 77 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 2: was plus plus on the new search to new AAI 78 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 2: the technology in your controversial call of Roaring twenties? Is 79 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 2: it about AI? Do you believe in AI moving the 80 00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 2: Dow above forty thousand. 81 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,360 Speaker 3: I think so much money is being spent on AI 82 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,840 Speaker 3: that a good percentage of that is going to pay off. 83 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:31,719 Speaker 3: I think there is a certain amount of hype. I 84 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:35,160 Speaker 3: think open AI where it's open to the internet. I 85 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 3: think that's going to turn out to be a very 86 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:39,800 Speaker 3: big disappointment. It was for me when I signed up 87 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:42,839 Speaker 3: for it and hoped that it could write my daily briefings, 88 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,640 Speaker 3: and I had to spend the whole day correcting its errors. 89 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:48,039 Speaker 3: But I think as long as companies put in just 90 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:50,359 Speaker 3: their company data, it's going to turn out to be 91 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 3: a supercharge. And nobody's even talking about supercomputers anymore because 92 00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:57,040 Speaker 3: the GPUs, when you pile them all together, they seem 93 00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:59,520 Speaker 3: to be fast do the job. They seem to be 94 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:02,719 Speaker 3: fast enough. So look, I think the stock market started 95 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:06,839 Speaker 3: to discount the roaring twenty twenty scenario on November thirtieth, 96 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:12,040 Speaker 3: twenty twenty two, when OpenAI introduced chat GPT and now 97 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 3: all of a sudden, utilities our AI plays. Copper is 98 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 3: an AI play. 99 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:19,920 Speaker 2: So I look at eminem theory, you know, and I've 100 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:21,800 Speaker 2: never been a big fan of the certitude of it. 101 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:24,159 Speaker 2: I think it's really squishing. There's a lot of problems, 102 00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:26,719 Speaker 2: but the bottom line is on use of capital. The 103 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 2: new rage is again share buybacks. They're exploding. Ediard Denny 104 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:35,160 Speaker 2: on the support that share buybacks give to the bid 105 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 2: is that constructive or is it ephemeral? 106 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 3: Well, it is what it is. I think it's real money, 107 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:44,599 Speaker 3: and the money is going to buy these stocks back. 108 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:48,719 Speaker 3: So I think it's certainly another factor behind the stock 109 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:49,799 Speaker 3: market doing quite well. 110 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:52,880 Speaker 2: Edgar Denny with us with your Denny research. He just 111 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:55,280 Speaker 2: had a new hire. We'll talk about that later. Tom 112 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 2: Keen and Paul swenia across this nation with features of 113 00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:01,920 Speaker 2: twenty five. He's going to get us down forty thousand today. 114 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:02,800 Speaker 4: I think probby he. 115 00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:05,120 Speaker 2: And Alex Steele will see that later on. Paul a 116 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:08,560 Speaker 2: ten year real yield down to two point zero seven percent. 117 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:11,040 Speaker 5: Yep, we've had to pull back again at the ten year. 118 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 5: Just trading here for spot three six on a ten 119 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:17,159 Speaker 5: year ed. So, are you surprised that this s and P. 120 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 5: Five hundred that this stock market has done as well 121 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:21,240 Speaker 5: as it has this year up ten percent or so 122 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:24,600 Speaker 5: in an environment where the rate cut environment has really 123 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:25,359 Speaker 5: become barrassed. 124 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:27,840 Speaker 4: She went from six cuts today, one or two today, 125 00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:28,360 Speaker 4: whatever it is. 126 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:32,240 Speaker 3: No, I'm very encouraged by that. It shows that the 127 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 3: economy can live with these interest rates, the stock market 128 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:38,080 Speaker 3: could live with these interest rates. These are normal interest rates. 129 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 3: The fed has really normalized. We're back to where we 130 00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:45,400 Speaker 3: were before the insanity period, from the Great Financial Crisis 131 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:48,280 Speaker 3: to the Great virus crisis. So normal is good. 132 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:50,960 Speaker 4: Normal is good. So it's been earnings, I mean earning. 133 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:52,080 Speaker 3: Earnings are doing just fine. 134 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:55,280 Speaker 2: Okay, Ed, you'r dourney with us, folks. We're going to 135 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:57,919 Speaker 2: continue daing to Telsea on deck here in about fifteen minutes. 136 00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:01,120 Speaker 2: Generous of Ed.

Commonwealth go where you grow. Visitcommonwealth dot 142 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 2: com to learn more. For those of you not in 143 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 2: the game, why are we with Ed Yardenny because he 144 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:31,600 Speaker 2: made an incredibly lonely fundamental economic call two octobers ago 145 00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 2: to say you should own equities in America. And he 146 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:39,040 Speaker 2: does this always with a more long term basis as well. 147 00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 2: I want you to speak to the trillions of money 148 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:45,480 Speaker 2: that's out there right now, and yet it's joined five 149 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 2: percent and there's a taxes or whatever you know, have 150 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:51,280 Speaker 2: to go into the net net. But the bottom line 151 00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 2: is they are they read ed Yardnny or listen to 152 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:59,280 Speaker 2: you intrepidation give them the confidence to make the first 153 00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:00,640 Speaker 2: marginal investment. 154 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:03,640 Speaker 3: Well, there's a tremendous amount of money and money market 155 00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 3: mutual funds, as you said, and people have been very 156 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 3: comfortable earning four and a half five percent in these instruments. 157 00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:15,360 Speaker 3: But that is kind of a it is a short 158 00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 3: term instrument. It's a short term place. It's not a 159 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:22,160 Speaker 3: long term bet on prosperity, which is what equities are, 160 00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:26,920 Speaker 3: and even some corporate bonds certainly are a bet on 161 00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 3: long term prosperity in the economy. So I think I've 162 00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:37,760 Speaker 3: got nothing positive to say or negative to say about 163 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:40,400 Speaker 3: people who feel that they want to not take very 164 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:42,480 Speaker 3: much risk. I think, by the way, it's great that 165 00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:44,800 Speaker 3: interest rates are back to levels or people who don't 166 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 3: want to take risks don't want to be in the 167 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:47,640 Speaker 3: market Sweeny's. 168 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:48,880 Speaker 2: Doing, Yeah, I mean up and coupons. 169 00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:53,280 Speaker 5: So I mean, what sectors in the equity market do 170 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:55,599 Speaker 5: well in an environment? Where are the ten years? I 171 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:57,199 Speaker 5: don't know, four and a half percent. 172 00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:59,600 Speaker 3: I think the answer is becoming all of them. Who 173 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:03,080 Speaker 3: would have thought that the utilities are our plays on 174 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 3: artificial intelligence, and suddenly copper is is another way to 175 00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 3: play information technology. So I've been recommending information technology, financials industrials, 176 00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:20,319 Speaker 3: but the market is clearly broadening at back to I 177 00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 3: think we're seeing some excitement in smid caps, even emerging markets. 178 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:27,000 Speaker 3: I mean, we've got global stock markets at an all 179 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:30,320 Speaker 3: time record high excluding the US, and the US will 180 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 3: be at a record high very shortly on Friday. 181 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 2: And folks like you know full disclosure. I mean, everybody 182 00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 2: that comes into us, we protect the copyright of all 183 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:40,360 Speaker 2: their work, as we do with that your den. But 184 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:44,800 Speaker 2: I really want to emphasize that your Denny Research has 185 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:49,320 Speaker 2: very accessible short notes. I mean it's a price of 186 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:52,640 Speaker 2: like two martinis. You know, it's like well, okay at 187 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:56,040 Speaker 2: the Carlisle. But you know your Denny's live in large 188 00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 2: with some great publications, and I urge you to look 189 00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:03,160 Speaker 2: at them if you design concision in your reading. The 190 00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:07,960 Speaker 2: doom Clue publishes on Friday like clockwork to get through 191 00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:12,520 Speaker 2: the entertainment of the weekend. They're humbled. What do you 192 00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:15,600 Speaker 2: say to the doom What did the doom Crew get 193 00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:19,040 Speaker 2: wrong to me on an isl on basis is they're 194 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 2: completely focused on the parlor game of the FED, and 195 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 2: they're not focused on the dynamics of the broader world, 196 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 2: which is the real economy, which was gospel at Yale 197 00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:32,080 Speaker 2: a few years ago. 198 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:35,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I had to unlearn a lot of 199 00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:38,240 Speaker 3: things I learned at Yale. Quite honestly. It's very canesy 200 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:43,400 Speaker 3: and in its orientation. But I've become, like the FED, 201 00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:46,280 Speaker 3: very data dependent, and I try to look at the 202 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:49,800 Speaker 3: big developments, and I think where a lot of economists 203 00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 3: missed is the demographics. We've got baby boomers that are 204 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:56,120 Speaker 3: retiring and they don't have a lot of them don't 205 00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:59,160 Speaker 3: have a mortgage, they don't have college tuition payments anymore. 206 00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 3: They just have lots of time on their hand, and 207 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:07,679 Speaker 3: they've accumulated enough money to go on cruises and go 208 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:10,920 Speaker 3: to restaurants and check into the hospitals every now and 209 00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 3: then just to make sure they can keep going. 210 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 4: Exactly looking at us, I don't know, you know, I 211 00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:17,840 Speaker 4: don't know. 212 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:19,840 Speaker 2: I got to do one more question here, and this 213 00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:24,160 Speaker 2: is an audible folks, on my part, we had surveillance 214 00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 2: always look at the great journalists run even over the desk. 215 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:30,600 Speaker 2: Star Keepney has been on fire. I should say there 216 00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 2: was a guy at the Journal named Wallerstein who did 217 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:38,319 Speaker 2: some great, great work on macro. Right, he's died and 218 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:40,679 Speaker 2: gone to heaven and he gets to work for ed 219 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:43,400 Speaker 2: Yard Denny. How would God's name did you get Eric 220 00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:47,320 Speaker 2: Wallerstein to lose the dark trade and come over and 221 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 2: make it, you know, get a real job. 222 00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:51,160 Speaker 3: I offered him a job. He took it and it 223 00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:53,720 Speaker 3: was a done deal, like an. 224 00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 2: What's he going to do for you? 225 00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:56,439 Speaker 3: Well, he's going to do everything that I do. But 226 00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 3: his background is he worked on the fed's Open market desk, 227 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 3: so he's a real whiz kid when it comes to 228 00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:06,480 Speaker 3: the fixed income markets. So he'll certainly give us a 229 00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:09,440 Speaker 3: lot more depth than that in that area. But other 230 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:12,040 Speaker 3: than that, you know, all hands on deck and he's 231 00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:13,600 Speaker 3: another great hand on deck. 232 00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:16,800 Speaker 2: Let him go to the Lisa Matteo Media School and 233 00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:19,319 Speaker 2: then we'd love to have him in Doctor Yard Denny, 234 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 2: Thank you so much. And can I say this, I'm 235 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:24,280 Speaker 2: gonna put Ben Laydler in this group, Ralph and Kompora. 236 00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:27,400 Speaker 2: There's a few others, but ed Yard Denny, like nobody 237 00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:31,160 Speaker 2: has called this great bow market of October of I 238 00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:34,360 Speaker 2: think it's two thousandial securities. 239 00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:37,319 Speaker 4: I mean the CJ. 240 00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:40,520 Speaker 2: Lawrence was green ink, right, it was like a green ink. 241 00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:42,760 Speaker 3: You'd sit there, got the same thing. 242 00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 2: With a pencil in your hand, and Yard Denny's got 243 00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 2: the same c J. Lawrence and it was like, you know, 244 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:50,800 Speaker 2: Ed Hyman like sort of invented, and Yard Denny came 245 00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:53,800 Speaker 2: along and gave it this whole twisted twist. It was 246 00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 2: better when it was printed. Am I right? 247 00:12:56,520 --> 00:13:00,199 Speaker 3: I don't know. We're high tech now, so I'm not going. 248 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:02,600 Speaker 2: To agree with that. Okay, Edgiar Denny, thank you so much. 249 00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:04,719 Speaker 2: I can you thank you for your support of what 250 00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:18,680 Speaker 2: we do. We go to Dana Telsey of the Telsey 251 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 2: Advisory Group. She's been waiting listening to Eddie R. Denny 252 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 2: as well. Dana, a pretty moldy control group. Is that 253 00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:29,360 Speaker 2: a trend? Is it? Is it a weaker retail sales 254 00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:31,960 Speaker 2: trend that you and Joe Feldman have to work with? 255 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:36,400 Speaker 6: Yes, it is. It is a weaker retail sales environment. 256 00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 6: Do you have a consumer who's much more cautious and 257 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:42,200 Speaker 6: discerning than they've ever been in the past, you're seeing 258 00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:46,079 Speaker 6: greater clarity to margins and profits than your are to sales, 259 00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:50,079 Speaker 6: given that inventory levels or lean and the consumer in 260 00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:54,680 Speaker 6: all income levels have moderated their spend of touch certainly 261 00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:57,040 Speaker 6: what you and I talk about Tom with the uber 262 00:13:57,160 --> 00:14:00,800 Speaker 6: high end like your mess of the world continue to spend, 263 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:06,080 Speaker 6: but beyond that we've seen will be definitely more cautious 264 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:09,480 Speaker 6: in what they're spending. And retailers are aware of it, right, 265 00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:09,920 Speaker 6: I mean. 266 00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:12,640 Speaker 2: I mean Red Lobster with some challenges to say the least, 267 00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:14,760 Speaker 2: even though Mike McKee is you know, Mike mcke's are 268 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:17,840 Speaker 2: like three days a week having the lobster in stake special. 269 00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:21,280 Speaker 2: Of course there some byproducts in the steak. But are 270 00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:23,600 Speaker 2: we going to see a workout here in retail, in 271 00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:28,240 Speaker 2: middle retail, the middle department stores in the lower ranges, 272 00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:31,600 Speaker 2: Dana Telsea, are we going to see a rationalization of stores? 273 00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 6: I think we've been seeing that. Look at Macy's announcements 274 00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:38,600 Speaker 6: of their store closures that's out there. You haven't had 275 00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 6: many companies on the watch list, but you have had 276 00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:46,000 Speaker 6: announcements of closures. Ninety nine cents only stores going away 277 00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:50,520 Speaker 6: expressed closing a bunch of their stores, So it's getting 278 00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:54,280 Speaker 6: more productive. But the interesting thing for all the closures, 279 00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 6: there is more demand for space than there is supply. 280 00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:00,760 Speaker 6: I'm sure if you walk around Manhattan, we're seeing a 281 00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:05,480 Speaker 6: pickup in occupancy. We're seeing more news stores. Come. This 282 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 6: weekend is the International Council of Shopping Centers Convention, where 283 00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 6: the retail real estate audience gets together, and I think 284 00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:15,760 Speaker 6: we're going to continue to hear of more demand than 285 00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:20,320 Speaker 6: supply because retailers are investing in those footprints, because consumers 286 00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 6: want that social entertainment of going to a store, and 287 00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:25,640 Speaker 6: they could buy online and pick a store. 288 00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:28,880 Speaker 2: Also, I mean, Paul, the retails convention, that's like the 289 00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:32,080 Speaker 2: plumber's convention. How about that square footage at the Short 290 00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:32,640 Speaker 2: Hills mall? 291 00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:33,520 Speaker 4: Exactly? 292 00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:36,040 Speaker 5: All right, So Dana, what did you expect to hear? 293 00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:39,000 Speaker 5: What are you going to be listening for from Walmart tomorrow? 294 00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:40,760 Speaker 5: You know, is they report the results and you know, 295 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:42,480 Speaker 5: because we always feel like we can get a pretty 296 00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:45,280 Speaker 5: good sense of how the consumer's doing out there. 297 00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:47,840 Speaker 6: That's what I want to listen for. I want to 298 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:50,280 Speaker 6: hear how the consumers do them. I want to hear 299 00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:54,200 Speaker 6: how they're planning inventory. I want to hear about category performance, 300 00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:58,360 Speaker 6: discretionary versus essentials. I want to hear about costs. How 301 00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:02,640 Speaker 6: are they managing labor costs, remodels they're remodeling stores. What 302 00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:05,320 Speaker 6: are they seeing on those remodels. I want to hear 303 00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:08,320 Speaker 6: about e commerce, and I want to hear food and 304 00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:11,440 Speaker 6: gros rate versus the other categories. I think there's a 305 00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:15,680 Speaker 6: lot to learn about the overall consumer environment from Walmart 306 00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:16,880 Speaker 6: Trace tomorrow. 307 00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:19,440 Speaker 2: H Dana.

What's the part where 312 00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:37,640 Speaker 2: you say, thirty six months from now, this is going 313 00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:38,920 Speaker 2: to provide total return. 314 00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:42,720 Speaker 6: I think luxury will provide total return. I think the 315 00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:45,960 Speaker 6: Chinese will come back to spending. I also think the 316 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:49,800 Speaker 6: strength of off price and the continued share gains they have, 317 00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 6: I think it was a continued opportunity there, Dana, Tom's 318 00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:54,680 Speaker 6: not the brand. 319 00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:57,000 Speaker 2: I got eight more questions about the time.

I wrote a story yesterday about how the 340 00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:59,439 Speaker 7: fingerprints of momentum quants are kind of all over this 341 00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:02,439 Speaker 7: And when I look at the retail flows on platforms 342 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:06,200 Speaker 7: like Fidelities and interactive brokers, more sell orders of game 343 00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:08,800 Speaker 7: Stop than to buy. Like investors who bought the stock 344 00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:11,919 Speaker 7: over the last three years and held onto the shares. 345 00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:14,639 Speaker 7: They's selling pressure there that didn't exist back in twenty 346 00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 7: twenty one, when short interest was one hundred and forty percent. 347 00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:19,520 Speaker 7: Now it's close to twenty five percent. So the dynamics 348 00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:22,240 Speaker 7: are very different now than they were back in twenty 349 00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:22,679 Speaker 7: twenty one. 350 00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:23,720 Speaker 2: What did Hello Kitty do? 351 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:25,480 Speaker 8: Raring Kitty? 352 00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:25,880 Speaker 3: Oh? 353 00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:30,479 Speaker 2: Sorry, right, come out at ten o'clock. They know what 354 00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:33,160 Speaker 2: you're talking about. I have no clue. What did Hello 355 00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:35,520 Speaker 2: Kitty do? 356 00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:40,879 Speaker 7: The Roaring Kitty ex account posted a meme on Sunday night, which, 357 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:44,080 Speaker 7: essentially reading between the lines and looking at what the 358 00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:46,960 Speaker 7: meme stands for is essentially getting locked into a game. 359 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:50,200 Speaker 7: So the picture was a character or a drawing leaning 360 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:50,720 Speaker 7: back and. 361 00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:55,120 Speaker 8: Pushing forward, heating forward. That jump started, that sent the mark. 362 00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:59,640 Speaker 2: We tear apart short sellers out touting their shorts. They're Unamerican, 363 00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 2: they're illegal. Why is this any different going long than 364 00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:05,040 Speaker 2: the short seller's getting beat up? 365 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:06,480 Speaker 8: Not really. 366 00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:08,479 Speaker 7: I mean that's kind of the thing, Tom, when you 367 00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 7: look at the different arguments around different stocks. Everyone has 368 00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:15,199 Speaker 7: their own case to be made. So the fact that 369 00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:18,640 Speaker 7: a person on Twitter Free world only is posting memes 370 00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:21,639 Speaker 7: NonStop and stitch together videos and the stock react. 371 00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:24,960 Speaker 2: To Neil Young's next song, meming in a Free World Billy. 372 00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:27,840 Speaker 5: So again, let's go back to who's buying this stuff? 373 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:30,679 Speaker 5: If it isn't you know the kid in his basement 374 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:33,640 Speaker 5: with his computer. Do we get a sense of who's buying? 375 00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:36,240 Speaker 5: Because I saw some real volume trade over the past 376 00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 5: fday's tens of millions of shares. 377 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:38,360 Speaker 3: Yeah. 378 00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:40,960 Speaker 7: When I talk to people who advise hedge funds, they 379 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:43,960 Speaker 7: say that the blueprint and kind of the playbook was 380 00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:45,880 Speaker 7: laid out in twenty twenty one, that some of those 381 00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:49,080 Speaker 7: momentum quants who trade strictly based on trading volumes and 382 00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:51,080 Speaker 7: momentum are getting in and out of the stock. That's 383 00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:53,480 Speaker 7: why you're seeing so much money being traded. Because again 384 00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:56,159 Speaker 7: when I look at Fidelity data, for example, back in 385 00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:58,760 Speaker 7: twenty twenty one, by orders, we're outstripping those of cell 386 00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 7: like at a thirty to one clip. Wow, they're more 387 00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:04,879 Speaker 7: cells than buys right now on So it's very different. 388 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:08,440 Speaker 2: I got two questions. First, it's technical for those fancy 389 00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:12,520 Speaker 2: heads from people, What is the setup that they're using 390 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:15,040 Speaker 2: to take fifty dollars a year? It doesn't matter the stock. 391 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:19,520 Speaker 2: Are they going long to fifty one. Are they looking 392 00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:22,880 Speaker 2: for fifty two? Are they trading in pennies decimals? 393 00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:25,520 Speaker 7: I think everyone has their own different strategy, and so 394 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 7: I think for the most part, the idea is it 395 00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:32,200 Speaker 7: sounds super elementary buying, but gets buying. So you buy 396 00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:34,800 Speaker 7: the stock and then see the next momentum fund buys 397 00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:37,320 Speaker 7: the stock. So then you already have plugged into your algorithm. 398 00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:39,720 Speaker 7: You buy it, for your example, at fifty and then 399 00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 7: you take in that profit at fifty two. But if 400 00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:43,800 Speaker 7: you have your computers reading that the stock's going to 401 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:46,199 Speaker 7: keep going, then you wait for a cell signal then 402 00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:48,720 Speaker 7: to get out. So they're buying early and selling early. 403 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:51,240 Speaker 2: Bill Gross, we published today that my good friend Bill 404 00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:53,919 Speaker 2: Gross is out, and I'm gonna explain to slowly folks. 405 00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:59,119 Speaker 2: He's doing options where he's writing them out, taking in 406 00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:03,560 Speaker 2: a pre looking at the idiot volatility and hoping that 407 00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:05,520 Speaker 2: the stock will go down. Did I do that? Okay? 408 00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:08,920 Speaker 7: That for the most part he's hoping that the stock 409 00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:12,600 Speaker 7: trade's flat. Okay, So so for he's doing that for 410 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:14,680 Speaker 7: both GameStop and MC. He did it for Trump Media. 411 00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:17,760 Speaker 7: It's really and when we were when I was talking 412 00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:21,240 Speaker 7: to him through one of his pr people basically saying 413 00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:24,920 Speaker 7: the expectation is that there's enough money that you can 414 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:26,560 Speaker 7: take both sides of the trade as long as it 415 00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:28,320 Speaker 7: doesn't plunge or absolutely rip. 416 00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:30,160 Speaker 8: Again, he's just taking cash, just. 417 00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:32,639 Speaker 2: Taking in the premium while the children play. 418 00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:37,240 Speaker 5: Exactly, Okay, So let's all right, that's enough for the 419 00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:41,960 Speaker 5: meme stocks. Your other meetings is IPOs. We heard from 420 00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:45,199 Speaker 5: some CEOs this week from around the world speaking that 421 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:47,760 Speaker 5: they're pretty optimistic that the IPAL market this year is 422 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:50,560 Speaker 5: better and they expected to remain pretty solid. 423 00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:52,640 Speaker 4: Tell us about the IPAL market. 424 00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:55,320 Speaker 5: This year, what have we seen so far, how's the volume, 425 00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:56,920 Speaker 5: how's business and then what's the outlook. 426 00:21:57,040 --> 00:21:59,400 Speaker 7: Everything has to be better that when you're coming off 427 00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 7: the worst year in more than twelve years. So we've 428 00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:04,960 Speaker 7: seen volumes for the most part. Taking up the comps 429 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:08,000 Speaker 7: actually got a little bit more difficult because this time 430 00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:10,680 Speaker 7: last year Janj's ken View carve out happened. That price 431 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:14,240 Speaker 7: a few billion dollars in paper, but we've seen three 432 00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:17,920 Speaker 7: deals greater than a billion dollars. Viking Holdings luxury cruise 433 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:20,800 Speaker 7: line has done quite well, up seventeen percent from offer price. 434 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:24,359 Speaker 7: Omor Sports, which was hotly debated up about sixteen percent 435 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:27,200 Speaker 7: from that price, and then Caspy, which is a Kazakhstan 436 00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:31,120 Speaker 7: app A lot of debate around that. But we've seen 437 00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 7: Reddit and Rubric and ul Solutions, who makes the does 438 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:38,399 Speaker 7: safety testing, a number of kind of companies coming to 439 00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:39,920 Speaker 7: market and for the most part. 440 00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:40,480 Speaker 8: Being well received. 441 00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:44,000 Speaker 7: And we've seen a number of companies considering whether they 442 00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:45,320 Speaker 7: want to go now or wait until after? 443 00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:48,240 Speaker 2: Are we back to our profits or ibitar we're blind 444 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:50,399 Speaker 2: to that. They're just looking at gross gross growth. 445 00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:51,760 Speaker 8: Now so far removed from that. 446 00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:53,679 Speaker 7: And that's the big issue when you talked to venture 447 00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:56,320 Speaker 7: capitalists is that they have a lot of companies that 448 00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:58,280 Speaker 7: they need to get out of and start to take 449 00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:01,280 Speaker 7: return money to their LPU, and the market's not ready 450 00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:01,480 Speaker 7: for that. 451 00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:06,879 Speaker 2: Who decides the next meme stock?
