1
00:00:02,400 --> 00:00:14,800
Speaker 1: Bloomberg Audio Studios, podcasts, radio news, single best idea on

2
00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:19,440
Speaker 1: Apple podcasts, on YouTube podcasts as well. Thrilled with that.

3
00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:23,919
Speaker 1: I'm late to the party, you know, I just you know.

4
00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:27,560
Speaker 1: I got a briefing Friday from a senior guy at

5
00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:31,680
Speaker 1: Westwood One and it was just simply a podcast walkthrough,

6
00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:35,279
Speaker 1: and I really didn't realize YouTube is really beginning to

7
00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:38,360
Speaker 1: do well with podcast distribution. So good morning to that.

8
00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:39,879
Speaker 1: I got to look that up. We'll have much more

9
00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:42,320
Speaker 1: on that this busy week as well. Of course, the

10
00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:46,440
Speaker 1: Fed on Wednesday. As I said last week, something changed

11
00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:51,120
Speaker 1: in the air Thursday, and I've never seen the balance

12
00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:53,960
Speaker 1: between twenty five and fifty bases point a quarter point

13
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:57,560
Speaker 1: inter straight cut, a half point inter straight cut, and

14
00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:01,200
Speaker 1: the endecision, the uncertainty Doctor Wang and A Wong and

15
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:04,200
Speaker 1: Bloomberg really led on this. I give her great credit.

16
00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:06,959
Speaker 1: She hit a bar chart out that was just completely

17
00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:10,240
Speaker 1: unusual in the history of the FED. So we got

18
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:14,360
Speaker 1: through the weekend and we had the Wallstreet Journal had

19
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:16,960
Speaker 1: an article the ft, had an article this, that and

20
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:20,319
Speaker 1: the other, and very clearly on a Monday morning, we

21
00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:23,560
Speaker 1: had the bond market showing price up, yield down, and

22
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:26,119
Speaker 1: lower yields, particularly with a two year yield breaking down

23
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:28,959
Speaker 1: to a new low. And then at six thirty New

24
00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:32,840
Speaker 1: York time to borrow the phrase, all hell broke loose.

25
00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:36,320
Speaker 1: William Dudley, the former president of the New York Fed, writing

26
00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:40,560
Speaker 1: for Bloomberg Opinion, put out a blistering note saying he

27
00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:44,760
Speaker 1: supports a fifty basis point rate cut always on surveillance.

28
00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:49,080
Speaker 1: We have the privilege of these guests, William Dudley, right

29
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:50,920
Speaker 1: now on fifty basis points.

30
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:54,840
Speaker 2: I think what's essentially happened is the change expectations last

31
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:57,040
Speaker 2: week with those two articles that came out on the

32
00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:59,680
Speaker 2: Wall Street Journal and the Financial Times, sort of suspicious

33
00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:03,440
Speaker 2: article because they basically reopened the possibility of fifty when

34
00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 2: that was sort of getting closed off. Since that time,

35
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,480
Speaker 2: we haven't had any you know, FED intervention in any

36
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 2: way that's visible. So it seems at least that the

37
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:16,400
Speaker 2: FED is comfortable with the shifting expectations away from twenty

38
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:19,520
Speaker 2: five to fifty. So I don't think, you know, as

39
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:21,760
Speaker 2: time passes, I think what's going to happen is we're

40
00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:24,520
Speaker 2: going to continue to price more in the direction of fifty.

41
00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 1: In a multiple meeting sense, of three more meetings this year,

42
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:30,639
Speaker 1: wrapped around the presidential election. They literally meet the day

43
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:34,560
Speaker 1: after with an announcement. The FED decides two days after

44
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:39,440
Speaker 1: the November fifth election. Part of this in with the analysis,

45
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:42,520
Speaker 1: of course, the analysis of Bloomberg is how do I

46
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:44,840
Speaker 1: not lose money in the stock market? How do I

47
00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:48,120
Speaker 1: buy bonds where price goes up yield goes down? How

48
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:50,120
Speaker 1: do I buy foreign exchange? What do I play in

49
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:52,680
Speaker 1: the dollar? What does the litmus paper the foreign exchange

50
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:56,480
Speaker 1: system mean? Paul Sweeney paying under three dollars a gallon

51
00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:00,440
Speaker 1: for the for his it's not a bell. What's the

52
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:03,959
Speaker 1: I can't remember. I can't remember what card is it

53
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:07,200
Speaker 1: Paul has? But anyways, you know, the gas is coming down,

54
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:11,080
Speaker 1: commodities are coming down. It's all this market squirrel of

55
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:15,360
Speaker 1: the elites. Bill Dudley was iconic out of Berkeley at

56
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:19,079
Speaker 1: Golden Sachs and with the New York Fed of always

57
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:23,560
Speaker 1: watching the broad spectrum of the American economy. Maybe with

58
00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:28,399
Speaker 1: that responsibility on the island of Manhattan, of realizing it's

59
00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:32,919
Speaker 1: not just about Manhattan. Bill Dudley, on the FED and

60
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:33,480
Speaker 1: the poor.

61
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:37,000
Speaker 2: Well, I actually think the priory motivation for the interest

62
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:40,080
Speaker 2: rates cut is the deterioration out for low and modern

63
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:40,960
Speaker 2: income workers.

64
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 3: We start to think about the you know, the consumer

65
00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:46,400
Speaker 3: spenning reports have gotten recently. It's all about stress at

66
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:48,200
Speaker 3: the low end, and I think that's what's motivating the

67
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:50,760
Speaker 3: FED to cut rates more quickly. I think they're definitely

68
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:52,120
Speaker 3: taking that into consideration.

69
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:58,920
Speaker 1: Bill Dudley. There the I should say, singing from the

70
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 1: same hymnal Jerome power, that they look at all Americans. Finally,

71
00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:08,440
Speaker 1: on this communication exercise, just some inside baseball, the Bank

72
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:13,120
Speaker 1: of England has visible descent, acrimony and good quality, good cheer.

73
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:17,760
Speaker 1: I should say about descent argument, and that the Fed

74
00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:23,680
Speaker 1: no one descents well. Bowman descended a number of meetings ago,

75
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,200
Speaker 1: but it was sort of kind of like descent. Basically,

76
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:29,960
Speaker 1: nobody's descentant. You can't figure out what they're doing besides

77
00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:33,719
Speaker 1: this idiotic analysis of the FED speeches the minutes, and

78
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:37,400
Speaker 1: that maybe Chairman Powell speaks like a Jackson hole and

79
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:43,000
Speaker 1: clarity is assumed, or maybe there's smoke signals from selected media.

80
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:46,039
Speaker 1: Bill Dudley on the smoke signals.

81
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:47,520
Speaker 3: This is sort of awkward and you really shouldn't be

82
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:51,679
Speaker 3: communicating through these sort of articles in such a subtle

83
00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:53,640
Speaker 3: way that some people get it and some people don't.

84
00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 3: That doesn't seem to be very fair for people to

85
00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:58,359
Speaker 3: get the right signal from the FED. I think what

86
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:03,000
Speaker 3: basically happened was the issue of twenty five versus fifty

87
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:05,880
Speaker 3: was getting sort of closed off as you approached the

88
00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:09,039
Speaker 3: blackout period. Coll didn't want it to be closed off

89
00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:12,400
Speaker 3: because he's actually thinking pretty strobably about fifty basis points,

90
00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:15,000
Speaker 3: and this was the way to keep it open. And

91
00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:17,080
Speaker 3: I think what's happened as people have reflected on a

92
00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:20,480
Speaker 3: bit more, the logic for fifty has become very compelling

93
00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:22,599
Speaker 3: to people, and that's why I think that's what the

94
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:24,599
Speaker 3: Fit's going to do at this meeting this week.

95
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:27,599
Speaker 1: Bill Dudley there just a generous amount of time with

96
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:32,120
Speaker 1: us today after his market moving essay for Bloomberg Opinion.

97
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:34,120
Speaker 1: We will go to Wednesday that fed to size. I

98
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:36,560
Speaker 1: look for our coverage. My people haven't even briefed me

99
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:38,520
Speaker 1: yet on who we have, but I'm sure it'll be

100
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:41,080
Speaker 1: just as good as what we had last time around.

101
00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:45,040
Speaker 1: Great conversation wrapped around the announcement and then on to

102
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:48,360
Speaker 1: the press conference, and after the press conference, some good work.

103
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:50,919
Speaker 1: I hope Jeff Rosenberg at Black Rock shows up always

104
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:54,640
Speaker 1: as after the press conference guest of what the bond

105
00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:58,800
Speaker 1: market thinks of the FED action. We're out at YouTube,

106
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:04,320
Speaker 1: not only YouTube podcast, but subscribe to Bloomberg podcasts at YouTube.

107
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:06,960
Speaker 1: That's the best way to get us on your commute,

108
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:12,359
Speaker 1: Android auto Apple CarPlay out there as well. And I

109
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:16,240
Speaker 1: should point out as well across all of terrestrial radio

110
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:20,080
Speaker 1: across this nation and particularly the Corridor ninety nine one

111
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:23,680
Speaker 1: in Washington, Bloomberg eleventh three on New York, ninety two

112
00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:30,400
Speaker 1: nine in Boston, on Apple podcasts, on YouTube podcasts. Single

113
00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:31,200
Speaker 1: best idea
