1
00:00:02,400 --> 00:00:15,760
Speaker 1: Bloomberg Audio Studios, podcasts, radio news.

2
00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:16,520
Speaker 2: Single best idea, what a couple of days has spend.

3
00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:19,280
Speaker 2: We going to CPI tomorrow in the retail sales conbo

4
00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:21,160
Speaker 2: at eight thirty. We'll have all our covers there. Michael

5
00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:25,799
Speaker 2: McKee leading our coverage for all of Bloomberg Media. But

6
00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:29,960
Speaker 2: just already an eventful week. I mean a market that's

7
00:00:30,040 --> 00:00:31,920
Speaker 2: not doing anything. You look at the screen and the

8
00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:35,920
Speaker 2: vix is like thirteen whatever, and you can first glance

9
00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:39,519
Speaker 2: at the Bloomberg launch pad and you're like, I can

10
00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:42,239
Speaker 2: take off the month, and then you look at some

11
00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:45,000
Speaker 2: of the nuances out there. I'll give you two nuances

12
00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:49,680
Speaker 2: right now. One is this dash to utilities because AI

13
00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:52,720
Speaker 2: is going to need all sorts of new electricity, and

14
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:55,840
Speaker 2: the fact is utilities have done a moonshot. We'll get

15
00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:58,720
Speaker 2: the copper in a moment. And the other is what's

16
00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:02,120
Speaker 2: going on in the Pacific Rim And just quietly early

17
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:07,280
Speaker 2: this morning, euro yen showed weekend strong euro and I'm

18
00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:10,360
Speaker 2: sorry they got to go into the Japanese evening and

19
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:13,800
Speaker 2: discuss this. We'll have all of that across our Asia coverage.

20
00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:17,640
Speaker 2: Von Mann leading so much of that effort and Steve

21
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,080
Speaker 2: Engel with his great reporting. But look for that based

22
00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:24,479
Speaker 2: on of Hong Kong, but also out of Japan as well.

23
00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:28,640
Speaker 2: I'm really watching euro Yen for a third Japanese intervention.

24
00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:31,760
Speaker 2: There's always a good intervention when Jeffrey Curry shows up.

25
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:35,480
Speaker 2: He taught for years at his University of Chicago. The

26
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:41,240
Speaker 2: great segment here for the longer podcast of the microeconomics

27
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:44,240
Speaker 2: of oil, the shift that we're seeing in copper. But

28
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:49,400
Speaker 2: here is Jeff Curry on copper in the new sustained rally,

29
00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:51,560
Speaker 2: the higher price of copper.

30
00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:54,200
Speaker 3: AI's you know, chips and copper. You need the chips,

31
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:56,760
Speaker 3: but then you need the electrical wiring to be able

32
00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:59,120
Speaker 3: to power those chips. And one of those chips, the

33
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:02,800
Speaker 3: video chips GPUs, consume as much power as the average

34
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:05,560
Speaker 3: American household. So you're going to need a lot of

35
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:08,960
Speaker 3: grid connection to be able to accommodate that type of growth.

36
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:12,000
Speaker 3: And you know what is the bottleneck for that, It's copper.

37
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:17,440
Speaker 3: So all roads lead to copper, whether if it's military, spen, AI,

38
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:20,480
Speaker 3: data centers, Green Capex, they all point to copper.

39
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:23,760
Speaker 2: Jeff Curry, of course, iconic at Golden Sex now holding

40
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:28,639
Speaker 2: court at Carlisle groups as well. On the equity market,

41
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:32,080
Speaker 2: some spirited discussion today, just no other way to put it,

42
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:36,240
Speaker 2: a real debate about valuation, about the wall of money

43
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:39,000
Speaker 2: that's out there comfortable with five percent money market fund.

44
00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:42,000
Speaker 2: Somebody on the live chat on YouTube said, hey, I

45
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:45,320
Speaker 2: got a six month CD five point three five percent.

46
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:48,040
Speaker 2: That gets your attention, But you look back at the

47
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:52,800
Speaker 2: challenges the markets had, and Julian Ommanuel, working at Evercore ISI,

48
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:57,680
Speaker 2: would make clear these are valuation dynamics. The simplicity route,

49
00:02:57,680 --> 00:02:59,640
Speaker 2: the one I do not recommend, is to look at

50
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:03,000
Speaker 2: price is compared to earnings, and you get some form

51
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:06,520
Speaker 2: of valuation. When you look at price as compared to earnings,

52
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:10,239
Speaker 2: I would look much more at least drag cash flow

53
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:13,679
Speaker 2: into it, that cash after capex, and of course with

54
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:18,880
Speaker 2: the fancy stocks the Magnificent seven, there's some real capex

55
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:22,160
Speaker 2: dynamics right now, or I'd really look at return on

56
00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:26,600
Speaker 2: an invested capital. But anyways, the valuation phrase always within

57
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:32,400
Speaker 2: the media comes back to pe Julian Emmanuel of Evercore ISI.

58
00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:37,680
Speaker 1: The entire down draft in twenty twenty two and really

59
00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:40,960
Speaker 1: the other side in twenty twenty three, it was very

60
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:45,600
Speaker 1: valuation driven. Okay, we understand that the earnings have migrated

61
00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:48,440
Speaker 1: towards for the most part, that's select seven, but at

62
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:51,440
Speaker 1: the index level, the earnings have stayed roughly the same.

63
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:55,720
Speaker 1: The thing about twenty twenty four which convinces us that

64
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:57,680
Speaker 1: even though we think you have a correction in front

65
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,200
Speaker 1: of you, is that the bullmarket has further legs. Is

66
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:02,160
Speaker 1: you're actually going to see earnings growth for the first

67
00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:06,240
Speaker 1: time in two years. The surprises were much larger than

68
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:11,240
Speaker 1: expected because revisions went down prior to the start of

69
00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:15,360
Speaker 1: the quarter. There isn't really an explanation other than perhaps

70
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 1: the message of what was a subpart GDP first quarter.

71
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:22,800
Speaker 1: But you're basically on track five and a half maybe

72
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:26,679
Speaker 1: six percent earnings growth, and from our view, that's good.

73
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 1: We expect roughly that rate of growth throughout the year.

74
00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:34,080
Speaker 1: But the problem for the markets is the market expects

75
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:36,120
Speaker 1: that number to be upwards of ten percent.

76
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:38,960
Speaker 2: Julian Emmanuel evercore Isi and I do want to make

77
00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 2: note Gina Martin Adams of Bloomberg Intelligence has been way

78
00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:46,360
Speaker 2: out front with the earnings and revenue surprises that we've seen.

79
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:49,440
Speaker 2: I should point out home Depot showing up today with

80
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:54,159
Speaker 2: a pretty tepid, I'm sorry, seven point four percent mortgage

81
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:58,640
Speaker 2: influenced earnings report. We'll get much more on that in

82
00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:00,680
Speaker 2: the coming days, I'm sure from our guests and from

83
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:05,880
Speaker 2: Bloomberg Intelligence as well. We're out on Apple car Play

84
00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:11,279
Speaker 2: and Android play. This is growing out. The statistics are

85
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:17,039
Speaker 2: unreal on this revolution of putting fancy communications into cars.

86
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:17,479
Speaker 3: Now.

87
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:20,160
Speaker 2: Obviously they're going into new cars, new cars, new cars,

88
00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:22,480
Speaker 2: and we look at Apple car Play as a three

89
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 2: year project, five year project as we see a rollover

90
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:31,200
