Speaker 4: We have some great, great speakers.

22
00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:10,440
Speaker 1: I'll be interviewing Dario Amity, who's the CEO of Anthropics.

23
00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:13,400
Speaker 1: So Actually he's the person that should be answering your

24
00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:16,560
Speaker 1: AI questions, not not me. I can't what there's so

25
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:20,560
Speaker 1: many I want to ask him on a We've also got.

26
00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 4: Ken Griffin and Jamie Dimmond.

27
00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:24,720
Speaker 1: It's gonna be it's gonna be your fantastic and very

28
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:26,240
Speaker 1: informative and educational debt.

29
00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:30,919
Speaker 2: Will all of those guys participate in pick a ticker

30
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:33,560
Speaker 2: because this is a contest you do with Bloomberg.

31
00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 1: Right right, So pick a ticker is you pick one long,

32
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:41,240
Speaker 1: one short. It's a six month it's a six month contest.

33
00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:45,720
Speaker 1: Think of fantasy football meets the markets. Because this year

34
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:49,080
Speaker 1: we're going to allow you to change your picks.

35
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:51,640
Speaker 4: Uh, I think two or three.

36
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:56,560
Speaker 1: Times during the six month process. So you have you

37
00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:59,600
Speaker 1: put in ten thousand bucks, it's going to go to charity.

38
00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:01,680
Speaker 1: It's gonna seventy five percent is going to go to

39
00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:04,440
Speaker 1: robin Hood to help the least among us in New

40
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 1: York City, which sadly has twice the national poverty rate.

41
00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:11,920
Speaker 1: And I think we've all got a vested interest in

42
00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:15,519
Speaker 1: making sure New York not just survives but thrives. Because

43
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:19,160
Speaker 1: obviously Wall Street, which is the I guess the reason

44
00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:21,799
Speaker 1: for so much financial wealth that all your viewers have

45
00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:25,640
Speaker 1: is something that we need to be able to in

46
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:29,240
Speaker 1: New York City have again a thriving city, because the

47
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:32,280
Speaker 1: most important city in this country has got to always succeed.

48
00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:32,639
Speaker 3: Yeah.

49
00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 2: I mean you have raised I think three billion dollars

50
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 2: over the time since you founded robin Hood for fighting

51
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:41,839
Speaker 2: poverty in New York. I want to ask about Wall

52
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:47,000
Speaker 2: Street and specifically about this equity market. I do watch

53
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:51,080
Speaker 2: our competition, and I saw your interview with Andrew last week.

54
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 3: You said this is like October of nineteen ninety nine.

55
00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:56,560
Speaker 2: But after that, as you pointed out, you know, the

56
00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:59,440
Speaker 2: stock market doubled. We had a drop in October, like

57
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:01,960
Speaker 2: an eleven cent inter day drop, but then the stock

58
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:04,800
Speaker 2: market doubled to March of two thousand. Are we still

59
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 2: in line for a doubling of this market?

60
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:12,480
Speaker 1: Well, it's so funny because you had mentioned that fifty

61
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:15,480
Speaker 1: four percent of fund managers think that we're in an

62
00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:16,360
Speaker 1: AI bubble.

63
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:19,920
Speaker 4: If it's a bubble, it's it's a small one.

64
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:22,600
Speaker 1: If you just think about and again, how do you

65
00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:25,359
Speaker 1: actually define bubbles? If you think about the bubbles of

66
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 1: the past three or four decades, the nikkiing eighty nine,

67
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:34,520
Speaker 1: nasdek of ninety nine, Biotech two thousand and just after

68
00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:38,760
Speaker 1: twenty eleven, twelve, China two thousand and seven. All those

69
00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:42,600
Speaker 1: were four to six hundred percent gains. The Nasdaq's up

70
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:46,600
Speaker 1: two hundred percent off the bottom. So I don't know

71
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,520
Speaker 1: whether we're going to blow off like we did in

72
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:53,360
Speaker 1: nineteen ninety nine. Is it possible or all the ingredients

73
00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:56,600
Speaker 1: in place, I think clearly they are.

74
00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 4: For me.

75
00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:03,240
Speaker 1: The one thing that you can never ever forget is

76
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:06,960
Speaker 1: that a year from today, assuming that the President gets

77
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 1: his wishes, that the FED funds rates can probably be

78
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:14,520
Speaker 1: and then two and a half. You know, I think

79
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:16,400
Speaker 1: they're I think they would like to see that two

80
00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:18,880
Speaker 1: and a quarter. So I think two and a half,

81
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:21,800
Speaker 1: two seventy five. Obviously, whoever the new FED chair is

82
00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:26,320
Speaker 1: going to have to be able to intellectually move that board.

83
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 1: A majority of the board, he's probably whoever the new

84
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:31,840
Speaker 1: FED chair, Let's say they've got six solid votes, so

85
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:34,679
Speaker 1: he'll have to find one more.

86
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:36,840
Speaker 4: And I don't think it'll be that hard to do.

87
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:39,320
Speaker 1: But if you're going to have two and a half

88
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:43,719
Speaker 1: percent overnight rates or two seventy five, that's a really

89
00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:46,840
Speaker 1: compelling story for higher equity prices.

90
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:47,920
Speaker 3: Well, not just that.

91
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:51,200
Speaker 2: I mean you've got Neil Casar on our opinion team

92
00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:53,640
Speaker 2: yesterday laid out the argument that this is not the

93
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:56,600
Speaker 2: same as nineteen ninety nine because these companies are so profitable. Right,

94
00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:58,520
Speaker 2: ninety five percent of the S and P five hundred

95
00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:01,560
Speaker 2: is expected to post innings growth next year, and the

96
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:04,719
Speaker 2: average earnings growth is sixteen percent. It's obviously a lot

97
00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:09,080
Speaker 2: more for the mag seven or the Great eight. Plus,

98
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:10,680
Speaker 2: you don't have the same kind of leverage that you

99
00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:12,680
Speaker 2: had back then. You have less than one hundred percent

100
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:15,159
Speaker 2: debt to equity, and in nineteen ninety nine it was

101
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:15,800
Speaker 2: more than double that.

102
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:16,880
Speaker 4: Right.

103
00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:20,280
Speaker 1: Well, the only thing I'd say is I don't think

104
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:23,520
Speaker 1: you've got the leverage necessarily in the corporate balance sheetshet

105
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:28,280
Speaker 1: you clearly have leverage within the equity ecosystem, And by

106
00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:32,119
Speaker 1: that I mean you just had a proliferation and explosion

107
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:36,360
Speaker 1: in derivative products. I want to say that lebty tfs

108
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:40,039
Speaker 1: are of two hundred and fifty percent since the twenty

109
00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:43,880
Speaker 1: twenty two bottom, and I want to say that there's

110
00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:47,640
Speaker 1: four or five hundred, with another another couple one hundred

111
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:53,560
Speaker 1: in the pipeline. So you're clearly creating derivative leverage. Whether

112
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:56,640
Speaker 1: it's in the options market, we see single stock options.

113
00:05:56,720 --> 00:06:00,080
Speaker 1: We just see options activity exploding.

114
00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:01,800
Speaker 4: Everywhere you look.

115
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:07,240
Speaker 1: There's greater leverage again in the equity infrastructure.

116
00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:11,240
Speaker 4: For what has become a really trader nation.

117
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:16,120
Speaker 1: We have the highest percentage equity holdings by individuals in history.

118
00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:20,320
Speaker 1: We have again more levered activity. You don't see it

119
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 1: in margin debt because margin debt is actually an old,

120
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 1: anachronistic tool.

121
00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:27,560
Speaker 4: You see it more so.

122
00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:29,640
Speaker 1: In the options markets. You see it more so in

123
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:37,560
Speaker 1: the Lebrety ETFs. So it's somewhere down the road a

124
00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:41,000
Speaker 1: little similar. I don't think we're there yet, but somewhere

125
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:43,800
Speaker 1: down the road there's gonna be There're gonna be some

126
00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:47,080
Speaker 1: there're gonna be some real issues with that.

127
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:50,200
Speaker 2: Nonetheless, you're long now, right, I mean, at least last

128
00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:53,400
Speaker 2: time we spoke to you in June, you said your

129
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 2: portfolio would be long stocks. You said you'd be long gold,

130
00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:01,480
Speaker 2: you said you'd be long bitcoin, and those have been

131
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:02,039
Speaker 2: great picks.

132
00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:03,000
Speaker 3: Check out this chart.

133
00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:08,080
Speaker 2: Right, gold alone is a twenty two percent gain, but

134
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:10,120
Speaker 2: all of them are well above zero.

135
00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:13,640
Speaker 3: Do you hold onto that portfolio.

136
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:19,000
Speaker 1: So I would take them one by one. I think

137
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:24,320
Speaker 1: for stocks, the critical time is going to be the

138
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:27,520
Speaker 1: last week here in October and when we see the

139
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:30,160
Speaker 1: big tech earnings as well as by that point in

140
00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:33,720
Speaker 1: time will have greater clarity on the resolution.

141
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:35,040
Speaker 4: Of the US China conflict.

142
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:40,280
Speaker 1: I would think that if the Nasdaq is higher going

143
00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 1: into early November, then you've got a chance for a

144
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:48,120
Speaker 1: real ramp in the last two months. What happens between

145
00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:51,280
Speaker 1: now and then, I kind of think the market's going

146
00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:54,560
Speaker 1: to be the defensive until we get to that's going

147
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:58,440
Speaker 1: to be a intersection of just so many really really

148
00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:02,520
Speaker 1: important data points, so that's going to be a critical time.

149
00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:05,680
Speaker 1: They also have a FED meeting that week, so I

150
00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:09,560
Speaker 1: would think, you know, my prior is that it will

151
00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:13,000
Speaker 1: resolve to the upside. We'll focus on where FED funds

152
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:15,440
Speaker 1: will be. The market will look ahead six to nine

153
00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:21,120
Speaker 1: months and focus on that. Bitcoin gold are interesting. They're

154
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:24,200
Speaker 1: interesting as a pair in the sense that if I

155
00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:28,200
Speaker 1: just look at since Liberation Day, you've had about forty

156
00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:34,160
Speaker 1: billion dollars of inflows into a combination of bitcoin and

157
00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:37,720
Speaker 1: theory metfs, and you've had a like amount of inflows

158
00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:39,880
Speaker 1: into the combination of gold and silver.

159
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:42,040
Speaker 4: But if you think.

160
00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:47,079
Speaker 1: About it, the VALL adjusted forty billion that goes into

161
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:51,480
Speaker 1: bitcoin because it's got had, say five six times the

162
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:54,240
Speaker 1: VALL of gold was really.

163
00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:55,480
Speaker 4: A much much bigger.

164
00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:59,760
Speaker 1: Bet on crypto than it was on precious metals.

165
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:00,959
Speaker 4: And yet.

166
00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:06,120
Speaker 1: Gold has outperformed Bitcoin since that period in time. So

167
00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:13,400
Speaker 1: clearly retail has made a mistake in terms of trying

168
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:16,640
Speaker 1: to figure out which of the two debasement trades were

169
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:20,320
Speaker 1: going to outperform. And I have to admit, until a

170
00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:22,960
Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago, I thought bitcoin digital goal was

171
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:27,880
Speaker 1: going to outperform again the historic stores of value. I

172
00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:31,240
Speaker 1: think they're both probably still good. But my guess is,

173
00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:34,400
Speaker 1: again we're here in the fourth quarter momentum into the

174
00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:37,720
Speaker 1: end of the year that of those two it appears

175
00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:42,679
Speaker 1: that gold and silver are going to outperform crypto. You know,

176
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:45,200
Speaker 1: I'm always going to be a trend trader. I'm always

177
00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:50,040
Speaker 1: going to follow the momentum, and I'm not going to

178
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:53,280
Speaker 1: be so prideful that I'm going to try to outguess

179
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:54,480
Speaker 1: what the market's telling me.

180
00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:58,199
Speaker 2: But you do think that we continue to see infleetion

181
00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 2: Because I've been talking to Neil Dudda from Renaissance Macker.

182
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:06,200
Speaker 2: He's pushing back on this. He says inflation hawks need

183
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:09,480
Speaker 2: to seek help. But his main point, I think is

184
00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:13,000
Speaker 2: that housing, that the shelter component is going to come down.

185
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:15,839
Speaker 2: And he said a note last week housing prices are

186
00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:18,920
Speaker 2: likely declining. The fact that home buyer demand has declined

187
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:23,319
Speaker 2: even as rates have dropped suggests that a deflationary psychology

188
00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:25,080
Speaker 2: has infected the housing market.

189
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:31,079
Speaker 1: By that, I think, I'm probably looking past current conditions

190
00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:35,480
Speaker 1: and I'm just thinking about the future. And we're we're

191
00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:42,840
Speaker 1: in a fiscally constrained time. So why is it that

192
00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:48,080
Speaker 1: the president is hell bent on finding a fed share

193
00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:51,120
Speaker 1: that's going to have easy money. Because the only way

194
00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:54,240
Speaker 1: that we can reduce our debt to GDP, that you

195
00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:56,800
Speaker 1: could even begin to deal with a six percent budget

196
00:10:56,800 --> 00:11:00,319
Speaker 1: deficit is to have the lowest funds rates you can

197
00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:03,600
Speaker 1: possibly have, to lower your interest costs to stimulate growth,

198
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:06,640
Speaker 1: et cetera. The only way to reduce that the GDP

199
00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:10,000
Speaker 1: is to have obviously nominal growth exceed your interest rate.

200
00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:17,200
Speaker 1: So in a situation like that, particularly given where we

201
00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:20,199
Speaker 1: are in this economic cycle where we are now, it's

202
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:22,640
Speaker 1: just hard not to see and I think this is

203
00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:26,920
Speaker 1: what the market's looking ahead to see inflation not be

204
00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:32,800
Speaker 1: rekindled and start up again six twelve in a more

205
00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:35,120
Speaker 1: serious fashion eighteen months.

206
00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 4: Hence you can kind.

207
00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:40,680
Speaker 1: Of see it now. It's again think of this. We

208
00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:46,199
Speaker 1: have three hundred and seventy trillion dollars worth of global

209
00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:47,600
Speaker 1: financial assets.

210
00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:49,400
Speaker 4: Three hundred and seventy trillion.

211
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:53,200
Speaker 1: So when you come to a market like goal, which

212
00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:59,160
Speaker 1: is twelve trillion silver, which is, oh my lord, a

213
00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:02,520
Speaker 1: fraction of that bitcoin crypto, which is say two to

214
00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:07,520
Speaker 1: three trillion, it doesn't take very much. Then you start

215
00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:10,040
Speaker 1: thinking about the copper markets and some of the other

216
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:14,320
Speaker 1: rare earth minerals, and you think about just individual commodities.

217
00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:20,319
Speaker 1: Good gosh, the ability to elevate those prices. Because we

218
00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:24,080
Speaker 1: have so much again money and financial assets, it just

219
00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:29,200
Speaker 1: takes a small tweak to really begin to create a

220
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:31,360
Speaker 1: rise in the price level. And I think we'll see

221
00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:35,640
Speaker 1: that assuming that we have a new FED chair who's

222
00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:38,800
Speaker 1: going to take the funds rate down to two and

223
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:41,960
Speaker 1: a half percent, and I think the White House is

224
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:44,240
Speaker 1: thinking they'd like to see the funds rate at two

225
00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:45,600
Speaker 1: and a quarter to two and a half.

226
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 2: Will we see a significant dropping the dollar from that

227
00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:52,520
Speaker 2: because we had seen right in the first half, the

228
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:55,640
Speaker 2: biggest drop for the dollars since nineteen seventy three, that's

229
00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:58,000
Speaker 2: the year I was born, so a long time.

230
00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:00,600
Speaker 3: Ago, but we're obeyed, but we have.

231
00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:05,079
Speaker 2: But we have recently seen the dollar recovering, showing a

232
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 2: little bit of strength here as people look for I

233
00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:08,040
Speaker 2: think safe haven in that.

234
00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:12,800
Speaker 1: Well, look, you've got a you've got an FX, you've

235
00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:16,040
Speaker 1: got to you've got a fiat money debasement going on

236
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:18,920
Speaker 1: pretty much virtually around the world.

237
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:19,280
Speaker 4: Right.

238
00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:23,680
Speaker 1: The bond vigilantes, though, are being held in check by

239
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:30,880
Speaker 1: again central banks and populism that are pushing central bankers

240
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:36,800
Speaker 1: to run hot. So the the currency debasement trade has

241
00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:42,600
Speaker 1: really turned into a gold trade and a crypto trade. Right,

242
00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:46,920
Speaker 1: Bond vigilantes have been have been shunted to the back,

243
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:50,800
Speaker 1: told or been put in abeyance, and instead it's manifesting

244
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:53,079
Speaker 1: itself in gold and crypto.

245
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:54,920
Speaker 4: That's really what's going on.

246
00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:59,120
Speaker 1: So uh again, look at the new Prime Issu of Japan,

247
00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:03,679
Speaker 1: she's all read advocating for the boj to go slow

248
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:07,680
Speaker 1: on normalizing rates. You can't make it up. They got

249
00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:11,000
Speaker 1: they've gotten negative, they've got negative one and a half percent,

250
00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:13,800
Speaker 1: and it's almost like they just want to deny that

251
00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:18,080
Speaker 1: they have an inflation problem. But so that's what we're seeing.

252
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:22,840
Speaker 1: And again, at some point in time, at some point

253
00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:26,960
Speaker 1: in time, we're going to have some precipitous moments in

254
00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:30,760
Speaker 1: sovereign debt markets. I don't know whether it's Japanese bond market,

255
00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:33,320
Speaker 1: the US bond market, but we're going to have some

256
00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:38,160
Speaker 1: precipitous times. And if you just think about we had,

257
00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:40,800
Speaker 1: we're not even close to that yet. We're not even

258
00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:44,480
Speaker 1: close to that trust moment we had three years ago

259
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:47,560
Speaker 1: where the currency was under attack, the stock market, the

260
00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:51,400
Speaker 1: bond market was under attack. Just imagine if and when

261
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:53,720
Speaker 1: we get to that day, which I think with six

262
00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:57,440
Speaker 1: percent budget deficits in the US, that day will come.

263
00:14:57,880 --> 00:14:59,840
Speaker 4: Just imagine what.

264
00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:03,760
Speaker 1: Gold and crypto for that matter of the dollar, imagine

265
00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:07,280
Speaker 1: what they're all doing. We're in good times now, right,

266
00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:10,240
Speaker 1: even with a shutdown. Yea, even with the shutdown, we're

267
00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:11,200
Speaker 1: in good times now.

268
00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:12,880
Speaker 3: I wonder what you think about that.

269
00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:15,360
Speaker 2: You mentioned rare Earth's and even we can't inflate our

270
00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:17,600
Speaker 2: way out of that problem, right, JD. Van said, we

271
00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:20,000
Speaker 2: have the cards, but it seems to me China has

272
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:22,640
Speaker 2: us between a rock and a hard place. Mereth Whitney

273
00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:26,000
Speaker 2: put out a note on Sunday and she says, you know,

274
00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:29,560
Speaker 2: don't bother being distracted by one hundred percent additional tariffs

275
00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:32,920
Speaker 2: that President Trump was talking about, because aside from the

276
00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:36,920
Speaker 2: massive dependence on the US industrial complex for these rare

277
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:40,080
Speaker 2: earth minerals and magnets, the US military is one hundred

278
00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:41,400
Speaker 2: percent dependent on them and is.

279
00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:45,640
Speaker 3: Nearly depleted of its reserves. What can we do about that?

280
00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:48,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm sorry, I don't have a good answer for

281
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:48,440
Speaker 1: that one.

282
00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:49,200
Speaker 4: I wish I did.

283
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:57,080
Speaker 1: I really I don't envying Trump in his cabinet trying

284
00:15:57,120 --> 00:16:00,680
Speaker 1: to figure out what's going to happen here in two weeks.

285
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:01,400
Speaker 4: I really don't.

286
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:05,720
Speaker 2: I just think of the strategy that it looks like

287
00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:06,600
Speaker 2: the White House is falling.

288
00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:06,840
Speaker 3: Right.

289
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:09,120
Speaker 2: They take a steak in MP materials, they take a

290
00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:14,720
Speaker 2: steak in lithium Americas. They're trying to ramp up mining

291
00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:16,800
Speaker 2: so they can produce these things, and at the same

292
00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:19,760
Speaker 2: time they're taking steaks in private companies. How do you

293
00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:22,479
Speaker 2: feel about that? As a long term free market capitalist?

294
00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:25,280
Speaker 2: The US government getting in and picking winners and losers.

295
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:27,200
Speaker 4: I'm not in favor of that.

296
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:32,760
Speaker 1: And again, the reason why is it's the same reason

297
00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:37,200
Speaker 1: my concerns are. I see concentration risk everywhere.

298
00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:37,640
Speaker 4: I'll look.

299
00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:42,240
Speaker 1: Well, now we have individual investors with the highest equity

300
00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:46,120
Speaker 1: allocation they've ever had in the history of the United States,

301
00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:51,760
Speaker 1: really four times that of the rest of the developed world.

302
00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:55,840
Speaker 1: So I get nervous about that concentration. I get nervous

303
00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:59,040
Speaker 1: about the fact that we have thirty five percent of

304
00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:02,920
Speaker 1: the SMP's now concentrating the seven stocks. I get nervous

305
00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:07,800
Speaker 1: about the fact that this administration, even if all those decisions.

306
00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:09,040
Speaker 4: Were smart and correct.

307
00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:13,800
Speaker 1: Again, if you just think about the number one rule

308
00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:19,000
Speaker 1: of portfolio of portfolio management is you want diversification. That's

309
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:22,879
Speaker 1: why our founding fathers create us as a democracy, not

310
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:28,199
Speaker 1: a monarchy, because you want that contestation of ideas. So

311
00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:36,000
Speaker 1: I'm nervous when I see concentration.

312
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:37,720
Speaker 4: Virtually in anything.

313
00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:39,919
Speaker 1: Again, whether it's in the stock market, whether it's the

314
00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:42,399
Speaker 1: composition of the stock market, who owns the stock market,

315
00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:46,000
Speaker 1: or the decision making that's getting made in Washington. It

316
00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:49,680
Speaker 1: makes me nervous because I don't think in the long run, right,

317
00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:53,280
Speaker 1: even if all the decisions that President Trump making are great?

318
00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:55,560
Speaker 1: Is that going to embolden the next president who may

319
00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:58,359
Speaker 1: not make as good as decisions to do the same thing.

320
00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:04,000
Speaker 1: So I'll look, I'll look at that, and again it

321
00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:05,560
Speaker 1: raises caution flags.

322
00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:08,240
Speaker 2: But you're still you're still long stocks right now, You're

323
00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:09,920
Speaker 2: still long the Nasdaq.

324
00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:14,159
Speaker 1: I am. I wouldn't say I'm long at this second.

325
00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:19,159
Speaker 1: I'm clearly again, I think there's such a confluence of

326
00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:23,840
Speaker 1: possibly negative, possibly positive events. I think I want to

327
00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:26,280
Speaker 1: kind of wait and see where we are and in

328
00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:30,439
Speaker 1: a week or two times, but my belief is that

329
00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:33,040
Speaker 1: we'll be substantially hired by the end of the year.

330
00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:36,359
Speaker 2: All right, So just to end on where we started

331
00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:39,520
Speaker 2: with the pick a ticker contest for Robinhood, I asked

332
00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:41,560
Speaker 2: you last time, and I'll ask you again.

333
00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:45,320
Speaker 3: For players at home. Yeah, what tips would you give us?

334
00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:46,200
Speaker 3: What would you put?

335
00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:51,159
Speaker 1: I'll probably so, I think it's going to begin November one,

336
00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:53,639
Speaker 1: I'm sure I'll probably be long. The Nasdaq will be

337
00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:56,920
Speaker 1: my long remember.

338
00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,280
Speaker 4: You See, it's really interesting because.

339
00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:05,240
Speaker 1: The last twelve months of a bull market typically you

340
00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:07,880
Speaker 1: double the annual gains up until.

341
00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:10,600
Speaker 4: That point in time. But that's to the end of

342
00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:11,240
Speaker 4: the bull market.

343
00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:15,840
Speaker 1: So we've got this situation confronting us where the best

344
00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:19,440
Speaker 1: part of the market's possibly straight ahead, but it's also

345
00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:22,280
Speaker 1: the most dangerous because it could be the top. So

346
00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:27,040
Speaker 1: I would probably be long. The Nasdaq would be my long,

347
00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:29,400
Speaker 1: and I'm I've got to think about what my short

348
00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:29,760
Speaker 1: would be.

349
00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:31,240
Speaker 4: It could be.

350
00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:36,080
Speaker 1: H it might be the bond market again, though that'll

351
00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:36,879
Speaker 1: be a bit boring.

352
00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:38,440
Speaker 3: Now, that wouldn't be boring.

353
00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:41,159
