1 00:00:02,400 --> 00:00:03,000 Speaker 1: Good morning. 2 00:00:03,120 --> 00:00:05,880 Speaker 2: I'm Brian Curtis and I'm Doug Krisner. Here are the 3 00:00:05,920 --> 00:00:07,360 Speaker 2: stories we're following today. 4 00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:11,000 Speaker 1: It's in Stacart making a splash in its debut, shares 5 00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:13,680 Speaker 1: of the online grocery delivery service jumping as much as 6 00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:16,360 Speaker 1: forty three percent on the first day of trading. It 7 00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:18,720 Speaker 1: finished well off that, and we'll get your details on 8 00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:21,520 Speaker 1: that in just a moment. Bloomberg's Bailey lip Schultz says 9 00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:25,400 Speaker 1: that the challenge now is for instacart to maintain enthusiasm. 10 00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:28,560 Speaker 3: That's really what investors and bankers want to see happen 11 00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:31,240 Speaker 3: is the debut is strong, but it carries on and 12 00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:34,080 Speaker 3: continues to trade higher. When we look at arm, which 13 00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:37,160 Speaker 3: is the largest IPO this year, biggest deal since late 14 00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:40,680 Speaker 3: twenty twenty one, it's actually fallen double digits percentages over 15 00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:43,680 Speaker 3: the last three sessions. So we've seen actually the majority 16 00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:46,879 Speaker 3: of bigger deals so far this year trading lower than 17 00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:50,720 Speaker 3: they closed on that first day pop. So initial excitement 18 00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:54,400 Speaker 3: has typically this year, again in a choppy market, waned 19 00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:55,800 Speaker 3: relatively quickly. 20 00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:59,680 Speaker 1: That's Bloomberg's Bailey lip Schultz. Instacart share surprise to thirty 21 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:02,840 Speaker 1: dollars the offering raised six hundred and sixty million for 22 00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:06,800 Speaker 1: the company, making it the fourth biggest us IPO this year. Now, 23 00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:10,080 Speaker 1: in terms of momentum, well, one day doesn't make a trend, 24 00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:12,800 Speaker 1: but we mentioned how high those shares had gotten in 25 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:15,760 Speaker 1: stacart shares though finished up just twelve percent. 26 00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:16,240 Speaker 3: Well. 27 00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:20,000 Speaker 2: The lawyers overseeing the bankrupt crypto exchange FTX are now 28 00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:23,319 Speaker 2: suing the parents of Sam Bankman Freed. He, of course 29 00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:26,720 Speaker 2: is the co founder of former CEO of FTX. The 30 00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 2: lawyers are claiming the parents, Alan, Joseph Bankman and Barbara 31 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:35,920 Speaker 2: Freed used their access and influence within FTX to fraudulently 32 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:40,200 Speaker 2: enrich themselves by millions of dollars. We heard earlier today 33 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:44,080 Speaker 2: from Bloomberg News senior editor Dave Litk, who tells us, 34 00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:49,240 Speaker 2: basically based on similar cases, that plaintiffs will likely seek 35 00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:50,760 Speaker 2: to recover every penny. 36 00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:53,480 Speaker 4: You can look at the example of the party made 37 00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:57,760 Speaker 4: off situation where for years it went back to seek 38 00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:01,640 Speaker 4: money that investors as a fund had held on for years. 39 00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:05,280 Speaker 4: It's the basic bottom line is that you can't hold 40 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:09,080 Speaker 4: on to money that you obtained legally through a fraud. 41 00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:12,840 Speaker 2: He is David Letka, the Bloomberg News senior editor that 42 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:14,639 Speaker 2: really looks a lot at what's going on in the 43 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:18,720 Speaker 2: cryptocurrency space now. Sam Bankman Freed will stand trial beginning 44 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:22,440 Speaker 2: next month on charges related to the collapse last year 45 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:25,400 Speaker 2: of FTX Brian Well. 46 00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:28,679 Speaker 1: The OECD, Doug says that the world economy is set 47 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:31,919 Speaker 1: for a slowdown, and the group's chief economist, Claire Lamberdelli 48 00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:35,080 Speaker 1: says it's hard to tell how far monetary tightening needs 49 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:40,120 Speaker 1: to go to tame inflation. Is Lomberdelli, speaking earlier to Bloomberg, we. 50 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 5: Are seeing that monetary policy is working. It is working 51 00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:45,680 Speaker 5: its way through economies, and we are beginning to see 52 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:48,919 Speaker 5: the tie turning on inflation. Your headline, inflation is coming 53 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 5: down in some countries also core inflation. I mean, you're 54 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,880 Speaker 5: right that there's a lot of uncertainty around monetary policy 55 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:57,200 Speaker 5: at the moment, quite how powerful it is, quite how 56 00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 5: long those legs will be as you might expect given 57 00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:02,519 Speaker 5: a very long period of very low rates and very 58 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:03,239 Speaker 5: low inflation. 59 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:07,240 Speaker 1: The OECD chief economists there are Claire Lamberdelli. She went 60 00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 1: on to say that it's important that fiscal policy works 61 00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:13,400 Speaker 1: in collaboration with monetary policy. But that economies need structural 62 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:17,239 Speaker 1: reforms to get growth going. The OECD projection global growth 63 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:20,600 Speaker 1: will ease to two point seven percent in twenty twenty four, 64 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:24,839 Speaker 1: after an already subpar expansion of three percent this year. 65 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 2: Oil prices steady today near ten month high's earlier branch 66 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 2: crew top ninety five dollars a barrel for the first 67 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 2: time since November. We also heard today on oil from 68 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:38,800 Speaker 2: Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, who said the recent increase should 69 00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:44,120 Speaker 2: stabilize in time. Here as Yellen speaking earlier to MSNBC. 70 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 6: Gas prices are up somewhat. That's not desirable. I think 71 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:53,680 Speaker 6: it reflects in parts Serdi Arabia's decision to continue oil 72 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 6: supply cuts that it put into effect earlier, and of course, 73 00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:02,040 Speaker 6: the ending of the pandemic in China, even though China's 74 00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 6: growth is slower than expected, has raised demand for oil. 75 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 6: My hope is, and I think what you see built 76 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 6: into market expectations is that they'll stabilizer moved down over time. 77 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:19,839 Speaker 2: US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen. Now regarding the American economy, 78 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 2: Yellen went on to say, the labor market is strong, 79 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:25,839 Speaker 2: inflation is coming down, and there is a lot of momentum. 80 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 2: She also commented on a potential government shutdown. She said 81 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:33,479 Speaker 2: the Treasury has not modeled the impact of a shutdown 82 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:37,120 Speaker 2: on the economy, which would depend obviously on how long 83 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:37,919 Speaker 2: it were to last. 84 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 1: Brian and a little bit more here on geopolitics. US 85 00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:46,480 Speaker 1: Commerce Secretary Gino Romundo said that she was upset when Huawei, 86 00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 1: the Chinese producer, released a new phone with an advanced 87 00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:53,080 Speaker 1: chip during her visit to China last month. However, she 88 00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 1: noted that the US has no evidence that China is 89 00:04:56,040 --> 00:05:00,360 Speaker 1: capable of mass producing these components. Ramundo, speaking early at 90 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 1: a congressional hearing. 91 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 7: We're trying to use every single tool at our disposal, 92 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:10,919 Speaker 7: BIS enforcement patents to deny the Chinese an ability to 93 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 7: get intellectual property to advance their technology in ways that 94 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:18,039 Speaker 7: can hurt us. The only good news is there is 95 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:20,720 Speaker 7: any We don't have any evidence that they can manufacture 96 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:24,280 Speaker 7: seven animeter at scale. And although I can't talk about 97 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:30,280 Speaker 7: any investigations specifically, I promise you this, every time we 98 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:33,479 Speaker 7: find credible evidence that any company has gone around our 99 00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:35,680 Speaker 7: export controls, we do investigate. 100 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 1: Commerce Secretary Gina Ramando, speaking there the Commerce Department's Bureau 101 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:43,960 Speaker 1: of Industry and Security has opened an investigation into Huawei's 102 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 1: phone and the purported seven nanimeter chip. Now we say 103 00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:52,320 Speaker 1: purported because this chip made by China's SMIC, was discovered 104 00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:55,560 Speaker 1: in a teardown of the handset that Tech Insights conducted 105 00:05:55,640 --> 00:06:01,279 Speaker 1: for Bloomberg News. It's unclear whether SMIIC has approved has 106 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:05,160 Speaker 1: received approval from Commerce to supply Huawei, which has been 107 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:08,919 Speaker 1: blacklisted in the United States. A few other stories we 108 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:10,920 Speaker 1: are following that we'll get to a little bit later 109 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:13,839 Speaker 1: in this hour. Country Garden leaves bondholders in the lurch 110 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 1: as interest payments go unpaid. There there is a thirty 111 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:21,560 Speaker 1: day grace period, but it still makes investors nervous and 112 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 1: doug In Hong Kong, we have this big crypto push. 113 00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 1: The government has been trying to get Hong Kong to 114 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,000 Speaker 1: be a hub here for crypto and now we get 115 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 1: a blunt warning on that police arresting eight people over 116 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:38,240 Speaker 1: conspiracy to defraud people. It's the JPEX platform that is 117 00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:41,200 Speaker 1: in question here, and it has expressed some disappointment of 118 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:42,000 Speaker 1: Hong Kong actions. 119 00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:44,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, I saw the police were able to seize millions 120 00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:46,880 Speaker 2: of dollars in assets that would include some property and 121 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:50,039 Speaker 2: jewelry as well. If you're talking about economic headwinds, I 122 00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:52,200 Speaker 2: think we have to remind ourselves, Brian, that in a 123 00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:55,680 Speaker 2: couple of week, American consumers will be required to begin 124 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:59,320 Speaker 2: making payments on some one point six trillion dollars in 125 00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:03,279 Speaker 2: student loan debt. That's after that three year moratorium. And 126 00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:06,840 Speaker 2: I saw an estimate today economist saying this could curb 127 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:11,120 Speaker 2: consumer spending anywhere from nine billion a month to seventy 128 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 2: billion dollars a year. 129 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, that is looming. And in fact, one of the 130 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 1: first questions I'll put to Nancy Daoud is coming up 131 00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 1: with us. I always enjoy getting her views from Americprize 132 00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:26,080 Speaker 1: Financial is are we going to learn this week that 133 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 1: there's some fear about something being broken, perhaps as a 134 00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:32,560 Speaker 1: result of what the FED has done, perhaps as as 135 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 1: you mentioned some of these other developments. And so we'll 136 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:37,800 Speaker 1: get to that in a few moments when Nancy joins 137 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 1: us live here on the program. This is Bloomberg. It's 138 00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:44,720 Speaker 1: time now for global news. In some of the top 139 00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:48,640 Speaker 1: speeches at the UN General Assembly today, highlighted by Ukraine's 140 00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:52,240 Speaker 1: President Vladimir Zelenski, at Baxter covers that and has the 141 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:53,880 Speaker 1: rest of the global news from the nine to sixty 142 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 1: news room. 143 00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:58,560 Speaker 8: That's Francisco ed, that's right. Brian Zelensky says if Russia 144 00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:00,680 Speaker 8: is able to succeed and it's in and he. 145 00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:06,680 Speaker 9: Seeds in the General Assembly Hall may become empty empty 146 00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 9: if Russia succeeds with its treachery and aggression. 147 00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 8: And says Russia cannot be allowed to use nuclear weapons. 148 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:18,280 Speaker 8: He says the globe should notice Russia's use of food 149 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 8: as a weapon. 150 00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:24,480 Speaker 10: Even now when Russia has undermined the Black Sea Green Initiative. 151 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:28,760 Speaker 10: We are working to ensure food stability, and I hope 152 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 10: that many of you will join us in these efforts. 153 00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:35,559 Speaker 8: And Zelensky warns that as a body thinks about climate change, 154 00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 8: he says nations like Russia could use it as a 155 00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:42,319 Speaker 8: weapon as well. Putin and She are not in attendance. 156 00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:45,120 Speaker 8: US President Joe Biden has met on the sidelines with 157 00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:49,199 Speaker 8: the leaders of five Central Asian countries former Soviet bloc. 158 00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:52,760 Speaker 11: States, I'm generally looking forward to following up on this 159 00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:57,720 Speaker 11: medium because we are stronger and I generally believe the 160 00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:02,800 Speaker 11: world is safer when we stand together, are five. 161 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:06,320 Speaker 8: Nations, and then in front of the General Assembly talk China. 162 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:07,839 Speaker 8: We seek to. 163 00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:13,000 Speaker 12: Responsibly manage the competition between our countries so it does 164 00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:17,680 Speaker 12: not tip into conflict. I've said we are for d 165 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:20,199 Speaker 12: risky not decoupling with. 166 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:23,240 Speaker 8: China and as a U and General Assembly meets this week. 167 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 8: Former UK Prime Minister Tony Blair says the countries have 168 00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 8: an almost impossible job to do. 169 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 13: So, even the UN Security Council, when you think about it, 170 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:36,880 Speaker 13: I mean it's completely irrational that you don't have Germany 171 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:42,199 Speaker 13: or Japan, or India, Brazil, Indonesia, you know, large countries 172 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:45,600 Speaker 13: that aren't represented in the permanent structures of the UN. 173 00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:51,000 Speaker 13: The difficulty is how do you change those institutions when 174 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:52,640 Speaker 13: you require everyone's consent to do it. 175 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:57,199 Speaker 8: Yeah, Blair exclusively in conversation with David Weston here on Bloomberg. 176 00:09:57,520 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 8: So only one country and the Security Council can blow 177 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:02,880 Speaker 8: the action. And Blair also says countries are trying to 178 00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:06,120 Speaker 8: keep relations with both the US and China while not 179 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:10,200 Speaker 8: aligning with either. China's issued a warning the Permanent Mission 180 00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 8: to the United Nations tell him not to attend an 181 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,520 Speaker 8: event on the sidelines of the General Assembly dedicated to 182 00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:20,760 Speaker 8: human rights abuses against ethnic wigers in China's Xinjiang region, 183 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:25,480 Speaker 8: even organized by the Atlantic Council and Amnesty International. Now 184 00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:28,360 Speaker 8: Zelenski's next stop will be Washington, d C. He will 185 00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:32,120 Speaker 8: meet with House Speaker Kevin McCarthy. McCarthy struck a very 186 00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:35,880 Speaker 8: combative tone today when asked by a reporter about how 187 00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:37,280 Speaker 8: the meeting will come down. 188 00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:39,480 Speaker 2: When you meet with him. Will you commit to another 189 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:44,960 Speaker 2: round of funding for Ukraine? Is Zelenski elected to Congress? 190 00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:46,839 Speaker 3: Is he our president? I don't think I have to 191 00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:49,839 Speaker 3: commit anything. I have questions for where's the accountability and 192 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 3: the money we already spit? What is the plan for victory? 193 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:54,760 Speaker 3: I think that's what the American public wants to know. 194 00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:58,160 Speaker 8: And he says that he's standing by his assertions at 195 00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:00,800 Speaker 8: a funding bill will pass global news power by more 196 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:03,200 Speaker 8: than twenty seven hundred journalists and analysts in over one 197 00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:06,160 Speaker 8: hundred and twenty countries. In San Francisco, I'm Ed Baxter. 198 00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:07,640 Speaker 8: This is Bloomberg. 199 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:10,439 Speaker 1: All right, this is Bloomberg Day Break Asia. I'm Brian Curtis. 200 00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 1: Along with Rishad Salama. We are here in Hong Kong. 201 00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:16,640 Speaker 1: Joining us is Nancy Daoude, private wealth advisor at Americprise 202 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:20,680 Speaker 1: Financial and the CEO of Opus Advice. First, we will 203 00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:23,280 Speaker 1: take a closer look at markets. Nancy, great to have you. 204 00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:26,200 Speaker 1: I'm curious whether or not you think we will learn 205 00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:30,199 Speaker 1: the answer to this question this week. Does the FED 206 00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:34,679 Speaker 1: think or maybe does it know that it's already broken something? 207 00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:37,960 Speaker 1: But it will take a while to materialize. And I 208 00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:41,000 Speaker 1: mentioned this because if you remember back to two thousand 209 00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:44,600 Speaker 1: and seven, stocks hidden all time high, then in July 210 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:46,640 Speaker 1: and then look what happened next. 211 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:50,800 Speaker 14: It's hard to answer your question definitively. But we believe 212 00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:54,160 Speaker 14: that Powell and Gang will stay the course and rates 213 00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 14: are not going to be coming down anytime soon. In fact, 214 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:01,920 Speaker 14: although there may be a pause this month, we really 215 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:04,440 Speaker 14: believe that there will be one more hike this year. 216 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:09,200 Speaker 14: But I think it's time also for the FED to 217 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:12,880 Speaker 14: start focusing on, you know, how are we going to 218 00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:16,080 Speaker 14: exit all of this? You know, now that we've combatd 219 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:20,000 Speaker 14: inflation and we've been somewhat successful at it, We're not 220 00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:23,560 Speaker 14: quite there yet one hundred percent, but we've got to 221 00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:26,960 Speaker 14: start looking at the other side of this now, and 222 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 14: that's I think is the big question mark and tomorrow sure. 223 00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:34,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, quick follow. I mean if we get a hint 224 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:38,280 Speaker 1: from the Fed that you know that they're done. Well, 225 00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 1: that's scare the market a little bit in that it 226 00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:42,920 Speaker 1: may go to that first question, that they realize that 227 00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:45,920 Speaker 1: there's something lurking there that has already broken. 228 00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:49,800 Speaker 14: I don't think so. I don't think that that will 229 00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:51,960 Speaker 14: be the message tomorrow. I mean I could be wrong 230 00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:54,120 Speaker 14: and we could all be surprised, but I don't think 231 00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:56,440 Speaker 14: that that will be the message tomorrow. I think it 232 00:12:56,480 --> 00:13:00,720 Speaker 14: will be important for them to announce or give us 233 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 14: some clue as to what's coming up in twenty twenty four. 234 00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 15: So, as you said, Nancy, people are now trying to 235 00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:10,040 Speaker 15: look through the other side as it were here and 236 00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:12,520 Speaker 15: what happens when they're done? And you know a way 237 00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:16,679 Speaker 15: should you be investing? And clearly we've got fixed income 238 00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:18,720 Speaker 15: as you but there is income with fixed incume and 239 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:21,240 Speaker 15: it's a good opportunity to get returns with other premium 240 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 15: of stocks and stock risks. Now, tell me where are 241 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 15: you looking. Is it in the credit space of the 242 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 15: sovereign space? 243 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 14: Absolutely? Credit, you know, quality is going to be everything 244 00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:37,560 Speaker 14: in this scenario. There's definitely a nice opportunity for the 245 00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 14: returns without the risk with stocks, retail and banking sectors 246 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:45,400 Speaker 14: are probably the highest risk. I would look more towards 247 00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:49,040 Speaker 14: energy that seems to be a lower risk, but emphasis 248 00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:53,559 Speaker 14: absolutely on credit versus duration. And also munis may be 249 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:57,560 Speaker 14: a nice opportunity now, especially if the Fed pauses. Munis 250 00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:02,160 Speaker 14: are positioned to do well, especially with high your text brackets. 251 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 1: You mentioned that there's a mild recession that's still kind 252 00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 1: of in the picture for you, but that you're not 253 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:11,960 Speaker 1: expecting anything too dramatic. When we get a news story 254 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:14,800 Speaker 1: today like Amazon planning to hire two hundred and fifty 255 00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:20,320 Speaker 1: thousand logistics workers, is that more bullish for the economy 256 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:23,360 Speaker 1: than it is for Amazon itself given the costs, or 257 00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:27,400 Speaker 1: is it bullish for both? How do you read it? 258 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:30,240 Speaker 14: It's really very difficult to read because on one hand, 259 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:32,720 Speaker 14: they just made that announcement, but earlier in the year 260 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:36,000 Speaker 14: they were laying off thousands of people as well, so 261 00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:41,440 Speaker 14: it's just a balancing act and maybe they're just shifting 262 00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:42,520 Speaker 14: the workforce. 263 00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:44,200 Speaker 1: You know. 264 00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:48,160 Speaker 14: The big key here is that we are starting to 265 00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:52,680 Speaker 14: see some of the effects of inflation and all of 266 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 14: the FED rate hikes, and credit is tightening and the 267 00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:02,960 Speaker 14: money supply is going down. I mean, liquidity is definitely decreasing, 268 00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:07,680 Speaker 14: and that's I think is more of concern for coming 269 00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 14: up next year. 270 00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:10,920 Speaker 15: Well, absolutely, that's surely one of the reasons why we're 271 00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:12,760 Speaker 15: seeing that, you know, fixed income or should I say 272 00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:17,400 Speaker 15: the treasury market so buoyant in some ways in terms 273 00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:20,280 Speaker 15: of yields. Of course, it's been crushed in terms of price. 274 00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:23,480 Speaker 15: Now with that in mind, is it down to perhaps 275 00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:26,520 Speaker 15: what people are factoring in terms of FED policy. Is 276 00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:29,760 Speaker 15: it really genuinely reflecting what's going on with inflation or 277 00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:34,720 Speaker 15: is it ultimately a function of that liquidity tightenness and 278 00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:38,960 Speaker 15: also of course quantitative tightening itself, which is also perhaps responsible. 279 00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:41,160 Speaker 15: Plus I'm going to go sorry, this's a long question. 280 00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:44,760 Speaker 15: Plus plus also there's massive issues of corporate bonds that 281 00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:45,560 Speaker 15: we've seen of late. 282 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:49,600 Speaker 14: It's all of the above, quite frank, I mean, I 283 00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:53,520 Speaker 14: can't even begin to start to repeat everything you just said. 284 00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:57,080 Speaker 14: But a mild recession is still on the table, even 285 00:15:57,120 --> 00:16:00,840 Speaker 14: though it will likely be very short and allow nothing 286 00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:04,040 Speaker 14: too major like what we saw in two thousand and eight, 287 00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:09,400 Speaker 14: because it's a completely different environment. You know, going from 288 00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:11,920 Speaker 14: a zero to five and a half percent interest rate 289 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:17,880 Speaker 14: was a very significant move and it's a drastic change, 290 00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:23,120 Speaker 14: and global cooperation has stopped altogether. There's a lot of 291 00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:28,440 Speaker 14: home shoring, Inflation is stickier than everyone thought all of this, 292 00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:32,480 Speaker 14: and energy prices are going up are rising. So I 293 00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:35,480 Speaker 14: think at some point we all have to expect that 294 00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:37,960 Speaker 14: the day of reckoning is going to come. The questioning 295 00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 14: The question becomes is how bad is it going to be? 296 00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:44,600 Speaker 14: Or will there be enough positive things to upset it? 297 00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:45,600 Speaker 8: Yeah? 298 00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:48,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, so I know there was maybe something isn't exactly broken, 299 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:51,080 Speaker 1: but we just need to make a few fixes here 300 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:53,480 Speaker 1: and there. We're about Asia, so we got to ask 301 00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:54,720 Speaker 1: you about China and Japan. 302 00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:55,160 Speaker 8: First. 303 00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:58,520 Speaker 1: China, a lot of issues there. You highlight the political troubles, 304 00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 1: the weak economy, the high levels of debt. Can you 305 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:02,520 Speaker 1: touch it well? 306 00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:06,800 Speaker 14: Yes, I think that that's ultimately being the second largest 307 00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:11,119 Speaker 14: GDP in the world. I think that that's going to 308 00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:15,159 Speaker 14: affect the rest of us with what's going on there. 309 00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:17,880 Speaker 14: I think that there's a lot we don't know, and 310 00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:23,080 Speaker 14: that's even worse. The hidden is really very very scary 311 00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:26,719 Speaker 14: for the rest of us. But the interesting part is 312 00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:33,760 Speaker 14: Japan is now looking very positive. You know, it's got 313 00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:37,120 Speaker 14: the lows, you know, the low valuations, a low leverage 314 00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:41,240 Speaker 14: on balance sheet, low interest rates, low political risk, low 315 00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:45,920 Speaker 14: structural changes. So all of that provides a good opportunity. 316 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:49,439 Speaker 14: But we have to remember that everything there's nothing that 317 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:52,919 Speaker 14: happens fast in Japan. Everything is very slow, and the 318 00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:56,760 Speaker 14: mindset of the regulators in Japan have changed, has changed 319 00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:01,439 Speaker 14: to the direction of pushing some return on investment for investors. 320 00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 14: They were never really interested in that before. 321 00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:07,520 Speaker 1: Yep, yep, absolutely, we may get some clues from the 322 00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:09,600 Speaker 1: Bank of Japan this Friday. In fact, a lot of 323 00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:12,040 Speaker 1: investors on this show said they're looking forward to that 324 00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:14,440 Speaker 1: meeting even more than the FED meeting.
