And 46 00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:35,840 Speaker 1: you've also got shares of rivals C and H Industrial 47 00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:38,400 Speaker 1: lower there down about two and a half percent at 48 00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:41,080 Speaker 1: the moment, v FS down seven and a half percent. 49 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:43,080 Speaker 1: This is a company on the north face.

And you certainly 54 00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 1: saw that at Nordstrom as well.

Uh, they expect this year's profit to be 69 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:47,000 Speaker 1: two hours and sixty cents, should share at best and 70 00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 1: almost looking two sixty nine on average. And there's a 71 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:53,200 Speaker 1: commodity tie in here. Amer In citing a projected drop 72 00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:58,960 Speaker 1: in electricity sales to Randa Alluminum, its largest customers. YEP 73 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 1: and Floor are another company affected by what's going on 74 00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 1: the commanding markets, down six and a half percent in 75 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 1: early trading. The construction company spourt quarter orainings and revenue 76 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 1: drop more than now was expected, and that reflected lower 77 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:13,120 Speaker 1: demand from metals and mining.

Let me just 87 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 1: for the record that um The Dead, the you know, 88 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:57,000 Speaker 1: the group that played the Final Dead concerts with a 89 00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 1: few adjustments, is also coming going on tour this so 90 00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 1: that means City Field. John Mayor on guitar, uh in 91 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 1: place of Jerry Garcia, who's gotten slugged a lot, and 92 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:13,440 Speaker 1: Mr Mayor is actually very good going. Is this like 93 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:16,280 Speaker 1: a music show? What? Well? I gotta say. We are luck. 94 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 1: We shouldn't dissen because we're lucky to get Martin Haggerty. 95 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 1: We're lucky to get through to his desk. He is 96 00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:26,799 Speaker 1: co head of Black Rocks Inflation linked bond portfolio, and Martin, 97 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:29,839 Speaker 1: there's inflation all of a sudden. You've been sitting there 98 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 1: waiting for years to sell your bonds, and now I'm 99 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:35,479 Speaker 1: sure the phone is ringing off the hook. CPI comes 100 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:39,360 Speaker 1: in hotter than expected. The doves are in trouble here. Um. 101 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:42,279 Speaker 1: I don't think the doves are in trouble by any 102 00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:45,880 Speaker 1: means as of yet. But this is a number. I 103 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 1: would say, this number is actually higher than we were expecting. 104 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,839 Speaker 1: But it is the trend that that core CPI has 105 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:54,560 Speaker 1: been on for for probably the better half of last year. Um. 106 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:58,440 Speaker 1: When you would have have told somebody eighteen months ago 107 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 1: that oil was going to go down a dollars and 108 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:04,040 Speaker 1: the dollar was going to appreciate, there weren't many people 109 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 1: around who who were agreeing with our view that core 110 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,320 Speaker 1: cb I was probably going to breach two percent, and 111 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 1: seems to have reached it quite convincingly on the back 112 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:16,000 Speaker 1: on this report. What inflation statistics do you use? I 113 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 1: mentioned earlier I had dore the Cleveland CPI, which is 114 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:23,239 Speaker 1: a unique core calculation. What does a pro like Martine 115 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:27,360 Speaker 1: Haggert to use? You know, I think what I've learned 116 00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:30,479 Speaker 1: is you can't rely on one particular index, you need 117 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:34,599 Speaker 1: to look at multiple different industries and break down each 118 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:38,080 Speaker 1: index into multiple different formats. One of the great things 119 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 1: that we like to do with you know, today's CPI 120 00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 1: print is basically break it up into the low volatility 121 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:48,839 Speaker 1: components and the high volity high valve components. So the 122 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:52,039 Speaker 1: low val components are your slower moving things that that 123 00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:55,240 Speaker 1: seem to get on trends and move in in that 124 00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:58,800 Speaker 1: fashion for a reasonably prolonged period of time. And our 125 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:02,679 Speaker 1: low val component or of course CPI today basically touched 126 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:06,839 Speaker 1: two point seven eight um. The highball components was have 127 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 1: actually picked up aggressively in the last couple of months, 128 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 1: and these tend to be more driven by you know, 129 00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:15,280 Speaker 1: dollar strength weakness over on a month of a month basis, 130 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:20,520 Speaker 1: the spillover from commodity prices definitely the form of volatile components, 131 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:24,640 Speaker 1: but the the trajectory of the low vill components, which 132 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:27,320 Speaker 1: is you know, the shelter, medical care, et cetera, have 133 00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:30,960 Speaker 1: been what has has kept us reasonably constructive on you 134 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:33,560 Speaker 1: as CPI up until this point. How does rent in 135 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:36,760 Speaker 1: housing calculations? I think most of our listeners understand the 136 00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:40,680 Speaker 1: oddity in the overweight there. How do you filter in 137 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:44,720 Speaker 1: real estate dynamics in the United States in the calculation 138 00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:49,120 Speaker 1: of inflation. Well, that's when it's worthwhile comparing different CPI 139 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 1: industries with each other. If you look at the contribution 140 00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 1: of shelter to CPI, as you said, it is a 141 00:07:56,000 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 1: large contribution, but CPI is what the tips in tips 142 00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:03,480 Speaker 1: security is actually priced off, so we have to pay 143 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:06,680 Speaker 1: past attention to that. But then comparing it to the 144 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:10,760 Speaker 1: PCE calculation which has basically half of the contribution of housing, 145 00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 1: which is the Fed's preferred measure, helps put it all 146 00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:18,840 Speaker 1: into context. And um, you know, just just maintaining looking 147 00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:21,640 Speaker 1: at you mentioned that the Cleveland FED, there are other 148 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 1: FAED median indicries that that give you a pretty good 149 00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:28,400 Speaker 1: indication as to the CPI basket as a whole, and 150 00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 1: just stripping out shelter. You know, there has been a 151 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 1: lot of talk about how shelter has been such a 152 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:38,439 Speaker 1: substantial driver of CPI. What's interesting with this report, um, 153 00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:41,959 Speaker 1: is that when looking at this CPI print on an 154 00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:46,199 Speaker 1: x shelter basis, the upturn appears to be fairly widespread, 155 00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:49,679 Speaker 1: which I think will give some members of the FOMC 156 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 1: who have been concerned about inflation, and many have talked 157 00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:57,800 Speaker 1: about inflation f shelter. It will give them a little 158 00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 1: bit more comfort in their decision to to lift off 159 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:04,040 Speaker 1: in December. Well, you've got a number of people in 160 00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:06,680 Speaker 1: the markets, I mean, certainly not the majority, but you 161 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:08,640 Speaker 1: do have a number of people who have been saying 162 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:13,200 Speaker 1: recently that markets may be way underestimating the potential for 163 00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:17,200 Speaker 1: inflation to accelerate and therefore the Fed to react this year. 164 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:22,440 Speaker 1: I think you're right, And the inflation market itself is 165 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:25,800 Speaker 1: pricing in a very very benign trajectory. And you know, 166 00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 1: we talked about this a little bit last time when 167 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:30,679 Speaker 1: when I spoke to you guys. But you know, what 168 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:32,680 Speaker 1: we like to do is to split up the inflation 169 00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 1: curve into various one year components or increments, and look 170 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:40,680 Speaker 1: what inflation run rates pricing for these different periods. And 171 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:44,440 Speaker 1: looking at the inflation run rate that the market is 172 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 1: pricing in between two thousand and seventeen and two thousand 173 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:52,240 Speaker 1: and eighteen UM, it's basically pricing in an ex energy 174 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:56,200 Speaker 1: CPI rate of about sixty basis points. So how we 175 00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:58,559 Speaker 1: do that is we take the slope of the gasoline 176 00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:02,040 Speaker 1: curve and x DIS tracked it from the inflation run 177 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:04,720 Speaker 1: rate price by the market to get an ex energy rate. 178 00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 1: So with that being at sixty basis points relative to 179 00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:13,480 Speaker 1: today's core print of two point two, is ready ready 180 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:17,240 Speaker 1: quite quite a widespread and something that we have not 181 00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:19,800 Speaker 1: seen in a very very long time. And to me, 182 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:22,440 Speaker 1: we're gonna say, Martin, we're gonna have to leave up 183 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:25,280 Speaker 1: there because it's fine. But that last insight was very 184 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:29,280 Speaker 1: valuable in taking the gasoline segment out of inflation to 185 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:32,720 Speaker 1: get a core dynamic of sixty basis point six tenths 186 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:35,959 Speaker 1: of a percentage point. And we've got a loaded schedule, folks. 187 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 1: With there's Martin Haggerty, thank you so much, so much, 188 00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:41,160 Speaker 1: with black right, there's so much going to three hours 189 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:42,719 Speaker 1: with we could do it.
