1 00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:14,600 Speaker 1: Bloomberg Audio Studios, podcasts, radio news, see. 2 00:00:14,440 --> 00:00:17,599 Speaker 2: What best idea on a Friday and odd Friday. The 3 00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:21,240 Speaker 2: year starts Thursday. Friday, get into a weekend, Michael Barr's 4 00:00:21,280 --> 00:00:24,040 Speaker 2: got to see what Vikings Lions do. And then the year, 5 00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:28,600 Speaker 2: I guess really starts on Monday, except nobody bothered to 6 00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:32,280 Speaker 2: tell the markets. We had the Tesla shortfall and unit sales. 7 00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:34,640 Speaker 2: We had a buoyant seat of the tape before that 8 00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:37,520 Speaker 2: sell off on Thursday. We'll see what happens on Friday. 9 00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:39,479 Speaker 2: As we speak now we're up, but I don't trust it. 10 00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:42,920 Speaker 2: I'll have to see on that into the beginning of 11 00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:46,720 Speaker 2: twenty twenty five. What we know for certain is the 12 00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:49,120 Speaker 2: dollar is front and center. I've really made a mission 13 00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:52,760 Speaker 2: with our team of bookers to really do better on 14 00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:56,200 Speaker 2: foreign exchange and what it means for people that wouldn't 15 00:00:56,200 --> 00:01:00,320 Speaker 2: know euro yen from euroswissy. And the answer is you 16 00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:04,440 Speaker 2: need good conversation. Here were the economists Neil Dutta. Neil 17 00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:09,080 Speaker 2: Dutta on the stronger US dollar and the American economy. 18 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:12,640 Speaker 3: When you have like one percent currency moves, that's a 19 00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:15,720 Speaker 3: big deal, right, I mean, so I think the dollars 20 00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:19,319 Speaker 3: concerning across multiple dimensions. I mean, number one, obviously it 21 00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:23,600 Speaker 3: weighs on US exporters, particularly manufacturing. That's number one. Number two, 22 00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:28,320 Speaker 3: going back to the equity market discussion, it weighs on earnings, right, 23 00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:31,679 Speaker 3: particularly for tech companies that are global in nature, and 24 00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:34,520 Speaker 3: because that's been a big driver of US stock prices. 25 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 3: I think the fact that the dollar has been strengthening 26 00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:40,319 Speaker 3: is going to weigh on earnings and by extension way 27 00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:41,119 Speaker 3: on stocks. 28 00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:44,720 Speaker 2: A treatment there from an economist on the US dollar 29 00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:48,480 Speaker 2: Neil Dutta, of course, just incredibly optimistic two years ago 30 00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:51,640 Speaker 2: when so few were, and now with some real caution 31 00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:57,000 Speaker 2: on the American economy, just just lining up the labor economy. 32 00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 2: The view out certainly's moved away from optimism to at 33 00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 2: realism of the growth of post pandemic America. We spoke 34 00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 2: to a foreign exchange pro kit Jukes icultruly iconic. I 35 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 2: don't use the word often iconic. It's society general suckgen 36 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:19,120 Speaker 2: is out of Paris, and they take an immense pride 37 00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 2: in their derivative mathematics or study of the financial dynamics 38 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:27,880 Speaker 2: of the market. And wrapped around that as his authoritative 39 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 2: coverage of foreign exchange. He knows that within the broad 40 00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 2: study of foreign exchange, there's the dynamics and various of 41 00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 2: interest rates between two countries, but separately the flows of 42 00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:46,000 Speaker 2: capital as well. Money's been flowing to America. Kit Jukes 43 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:46,920 Speaker 2: of Suckchen. 44 00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:52,080 Speaker 4: In my world, the flow story is the long term vulnerability. 45 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:55,639 Speaker 4: I mean, the value of US assets that's held by 46 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 4: foreigners is more than twenty one trillion dollars more than 47 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 4: the value with foreign assets held by Americans. And that 48 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:05,960 Speaker 4: number blows my mind. So but you can see what 49 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,120 Speaker 4: it is. Treasury yields a higher, the growth stronger, the 50 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:11,240 Speaker 4: equity market's fantastic, all the other equity markets in the 51 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 4: world that appear to be set to close, so that 52 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 4: we just have one exchange called America or whatever. So yeah, 53 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:20,000 Speaker 4: so I see that flow as sucking in all the 54 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,960 Speaker 4: world's excess savings from the countries to do allowing the 55 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 4: US to finance this fantastic growth. 56 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 2: Uh, Kit Chooks, it sucked. Jen. I want to take 57 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:31,200 Speaker 2: a moment here and talk about this podcast. We invented 58 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 2: this after I studied the podcast business and saw fabulous 59 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 2: podcasts like The Big Take or Odd Lots all you 60 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 2: know them, hundreds and hundreds of people doing this, and 61 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:45,240 Speaker 2: they're all like fifteen minutes, twenty minutes, twenty five minutes. 62 00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:49,360 Speaker 2: And you know, I sat with my senior producer on this, Brocton. 63 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 2: He's very good at telling me no, and I said, 64 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 2: you know, I really need to do a thirty minute podcast, 65 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:57,600 Speaker 2: and his eyes crossed over and Brockton said, no, that's 66 00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 2: wicked dumb, and so we're not doing that. What we're 67 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 2: doing is two insights sometimes three of the show and 68 00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 2: of the many conversations. And what I love about it 69 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 2: is each and every day it's very hard to pick 70 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:13,000 Speaker 2: out the two most worthy insights today. Obviously we did 71 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:16,840 Speaker 2: a thema for an exchange we hope to build out. 72 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:20,920 Speaker 2: This podcast is a bolt on to your podcast listening 73 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 2: each and every day. You've got David Gera that you 74 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:26,239 Speaker 2: have to listen to, and Tracy the other guy who's 75 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 2: with Tracy, Why is it Joe the Stalwart? You know, 76 00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 2: Joe Wisenthal and Tracy and many other podcasts out there 77 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,720 Speaker 2: from other news organizations. And we look at this just 78 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:41,360 Speaker 2: a small four minute vignette. We're on YouTube. Podcast. It's 79 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:52,840 Speaker 2: the best way to get us single best idea
