But more point and that she was 17 00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:03,920 Speaker 3: at Merrill Lynch, she was at Jeffrey's a company.

Where are they runing to. 20 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:11,560 Speaker 2: Where where they were from. 21 00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:14,640 Speaker 3: I don't get it all exactly. GREGI thanks so much 22 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:17,920 Speaker 3: for joining us here in our studio. As John Tucker 23 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:20,560 Speaker 3: was just reporting here all time highs again yesterday for 24 00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:24,560 Speaker 3: these markets. How do you think about just the opportunities 25 00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 3: in markets as you think about strategy stepping back and 26 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:31,480 Speaker 3: look about stocks, bonds, alternatives, you know, treasuries, I've got 27 00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:34,120 Speaker 3: the Federal Reserve, I've got earning starting this week. Where 28 00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:36,119 Speaker 3: do you guys start at a thirty thousand foot level. 29 00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:39,400 Speaker 4: Sure, good morning, it's great to be here, lovely studios. 30 00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:43,120 Speaker 4: So I will answer that question with the comment that 31 00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:46,319 Speaker 4: you made about marathon running. It's all about the long 32 00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:51,640 Speaker 4: run and staying in the markets with a diversified portfolio 33 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,920 Speaker 4: is the way in which we're thinking about investing right now. 34 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 4: We just came out with our media outlook yesterday, our 35 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 4: media investment Directions, and one of the things that we 36 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:04,800 Speaker 4: talk about there is that despite the very strong rally 37 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:07,279 Speaker 4: that we've seen so far here today in the equity markets, 38 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:10,200 Speaker 4: especially in the US, we certainly think that continues to 39 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:13,280 Speaker 4: be pockets of opportunity and we think investors should be 40 00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:16,480 Speaker 4: focused on that quality parts of the equity markets and 41 00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:20,120 Speaker 4: the core of your portfolio. What does quality mean, profitability, 42 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:23,920 Speaker 4: low leverage, and really stable earnings growth, And obviously we 43 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:27,119 Speaker 4: see that in some of those tech and tech adjacent centers. 44 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 4: Looking over to fixed income income is king and you 45 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:33,480 Speaker 4: can really get very robust, you know, six to seven 46 00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 4: percent income in a variety of sources. So that's really 47 00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:39,080 Speaker 4: the thirty thousand foot view. And I'd also say that 48 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:41,799 Speaker 4: investors are really looking for diversification right now. 49 00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:44,680 Speaker 2: The reason, like a Davos manifest here, what in God's 50 00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:53,160 Speaker 2: name is fundamental transformation? You got to be not markets. 51 00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:57,919 Speaker 4: Well, what we mean by fundamental transformation is that there 52 00:02:57,919 --> 00:03:00,360 Speaker 4: are a few things, as we were just talking about, 53 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:02,000 Speaker 4: when we looked at what are the stocks that are 54 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:03,800 Speaker 4: trading the most in the morning, and there are some 55 00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:07,600 Speaker 4: companies that are driving changes that we think will be 56 00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 4: here for driving inflation, driving growth, driving returns, driving profit margins, 57 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:15,400 Speaker 4: driving productivity for a long time. And one of them 58 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:17,920 Speaker 4: is related to AI. And we spend a lot of 59 00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 4: time talking about the long term opportunities both with AI 60 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 4: in terms of semiconductors but also in the power needs 61 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 4: of stale. 62 00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 2: How do you respond, I don't mean to interrupt it. 63 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:29,800 Speaker 2: This is this is what everybody on Global Wall Street 64 00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:32,359 Speaker 2: wants to know. I'm going to suggest black Rock as 65 00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 2: a more conservative passive, a little bit of active by 66 00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 2: side shop. Goldben Sachs is a cell side shop, and 67 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:42,120 Speaker 2: they're going to generate an opinion. Somebody at Golden Sacks 68 00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 2: in the last forty hours is basic MAIA editorialized Paul 69 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:49,720 Speaker 2: AI is BS. How do you respond to that? They 70 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 2: say there's no provable, identifiable downstream success with AI. How 71 00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:56,400 Speaker 2: does black Rock respond? 72 00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 4: So, one of the things that I would say is, 73 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 4: right now, when we look at the things that AI 74 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 4: can do, whether that's just making your PowerPoint deck or 75 00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:08,960 Speaker 4: whether that's in healthcare and looking at your mammogram results, 76 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 4: this is just the beginning. We didn't know about chat, GPT, 77 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 4: and there was no LLM you know, three four It 78 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:16,280 Speaker 4: was there, but it wasn't being as used three or 79 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:19,119 Speaker 4: four years ago. This is the beginning. In nineteen ninety 80 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:21,760 Speaker 4: no one was using the internet. Today in ninety percent 81 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 4: of the world's on the Internet. This is just the 82 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:27,360 Speaker 4: beginning of what AI will do, not just in semiconductors, 83 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:31,240 Speaker 4: but across the stack, whether that be in financials, whether 84 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 4: that be in healthcare, whether that be obviously in technology. 85 00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:36,960 Speaker 4: So I you know, obviously people can have their opinions, 86 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:40,080 Speaker 4: and I think it's great to have two sided markets. 87 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:42,599 Speaker 4: I think that's what makes a buyer or seller. We 88 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:46,760 Speaker 4: like that, we encouraged that and that what's But at 89 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,920 Speaker 4: the same time, we definitely think that there are some major, 90 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:53,279 Speaker 4: as we call them, structural transformations, off which AI is one, 91 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:56,120 Speaker 4: Demographics is another one, and we talk a little bit 92 00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 4: about the opportunities in India as a result of that. 93 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:01,800 Speaker 4: Geopology is another one that we spend a little bit 94 00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 4: of time talking about as well. And obviously one of 95 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 4: the things that I started off by talking about was 96 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 4: the need for income is a result of some of 97 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 4: these demographic shifts. 98 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 3: I NDA the I shares MSCI India ETF. Yes, give 99 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:19,800 Speaker 3: us the India call. I think I understand it from 100 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:23,000 Speaker 3: the super macro level. Right, last twenty twenty five years 101 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:24,800 Speaker 3: of China, maybe the next twenty twenty five years will 102 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 3: be India. That's as far as I go. How do 103 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:28,839 Speaker 3: you get Look, it's. 104 00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 4: Not just about being the next China, and I actually 105 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:34,280 Speaker 4: would want investors to move away from that thing. I 106 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:37,159 Speaker 4: think it's really about a country that is doing three 107 00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:39,440 Speaker 4: things right now which makes it appealing to invest us. 108 00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:43,280 Speaker 4: Number one, of course, the young demographic population. You have 109 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 4: a country of people where majority are between that age 110 00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 4: of twenty five and forty five, which especially when you 111 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:52,279 Speaker 4: look at the developed markets, is not the case. Second, 112 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:55,719 Speaker 4: it's the growth of infrastructure. It's what the government is 113 00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:59,520 Speaker 4: putting in for infrastructure right now to make the country 114 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:04,760 Speaker 4: more productive and enhance productivity. Third is that Indian equities 115 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 4: for either US investors are actually more importantly, Indian investors 116 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 4: are really under own. So there is the shift that's 117 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,600 Speaker 4: going to happen over the next few years and decades 118 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:17,120 Speaker 4: even where more and more investors are going to go 119 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 4: into their own domestic market. So I think all of 120 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:23,120 Speaker 4: that leads to both a short and a long term 121 00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 4: story that we really like. And investors have been pouring 122 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 4: into i NDA this year. 123 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:31,159 Speaker 2: Come back. This has been good. Okay, we'd love to 124 00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:35,160 Speaker 2: have you in as we can GUARDI chottery with us 125 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 2: a black rock today. Thank you so much, greatly. I 126 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 2: appreciate it. There's something going on here, folks, whether it's 127 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:55,800 Speaker 2: France or it's London, United Kingdom, and frankly India is 128 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:58,720 Speaker 2: Guardi Chottery was mentioned. There's something going on this summer 129 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:03,159 Speaker 2: about democracy and vote, which is a good setup for 130 00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:08,320 Speaker 2: Henrietta Treys. She is the best at the Pulse in Washington. 131 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:13,160 Speaker 2: Henrietta the trays radar at Veda Partners. What is your 132 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 2: radar searching for this Wednesday morning. 133 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:20,520 Speaker 1: I continue to be focused on all of the members 134 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 1: and understanding where the next shoe is that's got to drop. Obviously, 135 00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 1: last night we got Senator Bennett, Democrat from Colorado, coming 136 00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:30,880 Speaker 1: out saying that President Biden has got to make the 137 00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 1: decision to step down. I understand that the President has 138 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:38,200 Speaker 1: made this a sort of elites versus the rabble situation 139 00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 1: where he's saying the voters want Biden and it's the 140 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 1: elites who turned against him. And what's ironic is I 141 00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 1: literally wrote a note the exact same hour as he 142 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:50,560 Speaker 1: wrote his, with the exact set, with the exact opposite takeaway. 143 00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:54,600 Speaker 1: The rank and file democrats across the country, independence moderates, 144 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:58,320 Speaker 1: and particularly female voters have said repeatedly all year long 145 00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 1: they do not want another for Joe Biden. They do 146 00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:03,880 Speaker 1: not believe that he is up to the task. And 147 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:05,960 Speaker 1: it's been the elites who have said, you know what, 148 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:08,119 Speaker 1: we're gonna stick with this guy. The senators are behind 149 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:10,360 Speaker 1: in the House members behind him, and now both tithes 150 00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 1: are shifting, and I'm really just watching which senators, you know, 151 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 1: from an office or a chamber where Biden operated for 152 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:21,480 Speaker 1: thirty six years, is going to make the decision to say, hey, 153 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:23,400 Speaker 1: you know what, thank you so much for your service, 154 00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 1: It's time to move on. That's really the only thing 155 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:26,920 Speaker 1: that matters right now. I think we're about a week 156 00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 1: and a half away, but that's that's the most important 157 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:30,000 Speaker 1: thing in DC right. 158 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:33,560 Speaker 3: Now, Henrietta. Is it in fact President Biden's decision and 159 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:34,320 Speaker 3: his alone? 160 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:38,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, pretty much. I mean a big focus in DC 161 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:43,200 Speaker 1: right now is on the process. So specifically, where does 162 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:46,680 Speaker 1: the campaign fundraising go, Where do the dollars and the 163 00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:50,760 Speaker 1: Biden for President pack go? How do you migrate over 164 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:53,640 Speaker 1: the support of all the delegates that are now you know, 165 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:57,160 Speaker 1: technically pretty locked in for Biden. Who releases them? And 166 00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:00,680 Speaker 1: that's that's up to President Biden. That's his decision alone 167 00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:04,840 Speaker 1: to make. He's got a really small core of advisors 168 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:06,720 Speaker 1: who are working with him on that. But the main 169 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:10,880 Speaker 1: question is just operational, do we move forward with Kamala Harris. 170 00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:13,680 Speaker 1: Do we move to an open democratic process with a 171 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:16,720 Speaker 1: sort of quasi primary, or does Biden stay in the race. 172 00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:19,320 Speaker 1: And for the Biden team, their answer is we stay 173 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:22,079 Speaker 1: in the race. We continue to fight this fight, and 174 00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 1: we're in the best position to win. What's ironic is 175 00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:29,160 Speaker 1: that the defectors in DC who have come out thus far, 176 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 1: seven House members and just a handful of Senators are 177 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:36,000 Speaker 1: basically saying, you are not the guy. We want your 178 00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:38,560 Speaker 1: campaign dollars to be spread around. We have others waiting 179 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:41,080 Speaker 1: in the wings. I mean, an underreported narrative of this 180 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:43,959 Speaker 1: whole story is that Democrats have been raising boat loads 181 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:47,320 Speaker 1: of money since the debate record halls. They raised record 182 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:50,439 Speaker 1: halls when Trump was indicted on thirty four felon accounts. 183 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:52,360 Speaker 1: So there is plenty of money to go around. It 184 00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:54,720 Speaker 1: just is around sort of unlocking it and moving it 185 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 1: on to the next unitate. 186 00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:59,800 Speaker 3: Timing you mentioned a week and a half give us 187 00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:03,560 Speaker 3: a sense of when we really really really have to 188 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:06,920 Speaker 3: have a decision and a path for the Democratic. 189 00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:11,520 Speaker 1: Party really really is like August ninth, That's when we 190 00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:17,160 Speaker 1: really really need a new nominee. The expectation and sort 191 00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:21,520 Speaker 1: of the adjuta on the investment side, watching the DC 192 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 1: side is always brought. I mean, anybody who's been through 193 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:27,600 Speaker 1: a debt ceiling countdown or a government shutdown countdown knowns 194 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 1: you know if you just sort of like have a 195 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:29,880 Speaker 1: steely spine when it. 196 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:30,440 Speaker 4: Comes to DC. 197 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:34,560 Speaker 1: This is NATO week, right, So everything requires that the 198 00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 1: President have a really strong presentation the United States of 199 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:41,160 Speaker 1: the song, strong presentation, seventy fifth anniversary, all that, But 200 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:45,559 Speaker 1: August ninth is really the deadline, the the end time. 201 00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:48,080 Speaker 2: And there's so much out front here. It's domestic, like 202 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:51,960 Speaker 2: the Republican Convention in Milwaukee in that Terry Aynes and others, 203 00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 2: Henry in the Tray's and we value your opinions so much, 204 00:10:55,440 --> 00:11:01,120 Speaker 2: have said polls, polls, polls. Are there any definitive holes yet? 205 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:04,840 Speaker 2: Or what pole to come is the one that matters 206 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:05,920 Speaker 2: for Henrietta Trays. 207 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:10,079 Speaker 1: I mean, honestly, the fact that I'm looking at poles 208 00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:12,320 Speaker 1: from New York should be shocking to the Biden team. 209 00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:15,520 Speaker 1: It used to be the situation where Joe Biden could 210 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:18,240 Speaker 1: run his state and Donald Trump was losing the one 211 00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 1: that he came from. Now it's precisely the opposite now, 212 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:23,719 Speaker 1: Donald Trump is, you know, making New York potentially a 213 00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:26,280 Speaker 1: purple state the first time in twenty five years, and 214 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:29,400 Speaker 1: Joe Biden's down by seven points in Pennsylvania for your 215 00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:34,360 Speaker 1: latest pole. I mean, the flip is everywhere New Hampshire, 216 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:36,320 Speaker 1: soda leading is all over. 217 00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:38,920 Speaker 2: But you're incredibly wired. I mean, she has spies in 218 00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 2: the White House. I mean, Paul, it's unbelo. She's got 219 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:45,240 Speaker 2: microphones in every room, in the green room, the Lincoln bedroom, 220 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:49,440 Speaker 2: in all Henrietta trays. When they say you're down seven 221 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:54,839 Speaker 2: points in Pennsylvania, how does the Biden apparatus respond. 222 00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:59,640 Speaker 1: There's they're honestly on this one. They're ignoring the pole. 223 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:03,720 Speaker 1: They're saying, we remain competitive. If they do migrate off 224 00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:06,200 Speaker 1: that narrative, it's to say we are the best positioned 225 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:10,200 Speaker 1: to win. They're running against hypothetical candidates which with much 226 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:13,840 Speaker 1: lower name recognition, whether that's Gavin Newsome, Gretchen Whitmer, or 227 00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:16,000 Speaker 1: even Kamala Harris, who's that you know, got a six 228 00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:18,480 Speaker 1: percent of the population that doesn't know who she is 229 00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:22,040 Speaker 1: versus three percent for Trump and Biden. So basically they 230 00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:25,720 Speaker 1: just keep moving the narrative as frequently as possible and 231 00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:28,560 Speaker 1: sort of cherry picking their opportunities, which is not a 232 00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:29,200 Speaker 1: winning argument. 233 00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:33,000 Speaker 3: What kind of convention will the Democrats have here? 234 00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:37,240 Speaker 1: It's going to be loud. Yeah, I'm out of consensus 235 00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:39,240 Speaker 1: on this, but I do not think that Biden will 236 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:42,200 Speaker 1: be the nominee in October. It's going to be in November. 237 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:45,319 Speaker 1: I think that right now we have you know, three 238 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:48,080 Speaker 1: and a half, almost four months worth of the campaign 239 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:51,280 Speaker 1: to go. The benefit of right now is that we 240 00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:54,720 Speaker 1: are in you know, all time record high TSA, travel 241 00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:59,840 Speaker 1: on airplanes, record travel from triple A on automobiles. People 242 00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:02,640 Speaker 1: are on vacation, we are in deep summer, so there's 243 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:05,840 Speaker 1: a lot of time for the Democratic Party to pull 244 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:11,080 Speaker 1: around the narrative. Having served on grassroots campaigns nationwide, a 245 00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:13,679 Speaker 1: lot of voters, especially since sort of the Internet Revolution, 246 00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:16,360 Speaker 1: do not tune into the election until the last couple 247 00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:19,040 Speaker 1: of weeks. Twenty four percent independents don't make a call 248 00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:21,440 Speaker 1: on how they're going to vote until after Labor Day. 249 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:24,080 Speaker 1: So it seems like there's nothing left in times of 250 00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:26,000 Speaker 1: the essence, but there's really seventy five of the most 251 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:28,960 Speaker 1: important days are still like fifty days away. 252 00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:32,679 Speaker 2: Paul, can we ask a nerd Henrietta Trace question, Henrietta, 253 00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:36,079 Speaker 2: come on, Connor Lamb out in western Pennsylvania. There he 254 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:40,720 Speaker 2: was post a child for the Conservative Union Democrat and 255 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 2: all that. Christopher Deluzio is a first term Democrat in 256 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:50,040 Speaker 2: the vicinity of Allegheny County, Pittsburgh. What's he think of 257 00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:50,480 Speaker 2: all this? 258 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:54,880 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh is first of all, very near and dear to 259 00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:58,480 Speaker 1: my heart, and as is Connor Lamb. I think that 260 00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:02,160 Speaker 1: when look at Pennsylvania and they look at Pittsburgh, they've 261 00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:04,200 Speaker 1: got to concentrate on the mail voter. The mail voter 262 00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:08,880 Speaker 1: has abandoned Biden specifically, and it's not that they've abandoned 263 00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:13,280 Speaker 1: the Democratic Party. The Democratic Party platform remains overwhelmingly popular, 264 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:19,120 Speaker 1: legalizing abortion, legalizing marijuana, common sense gun control, things along 265 00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:22,880 Speaker 1: those lines, versus the Republican platform, which is almost universally 266 00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:29,120 Speaker 1: opposed to things like having teachers be armed in classrooms 267 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:32,720 Speaker 1: to stop gun violence in schools, pulling out of NATO. 268 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:35,840 Speaker 1: Those are things that are wildly unpopular with Americans across 269 00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:39,320 Speaker 1: the board, including in Pittsburgh. And it's mostly the mail 270 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:41,640 Speaker 1: voter that I would concentrate on there. That's where Democrats 271 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:42,840 Speaker 1: are hemorrhaging votes. 272 00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:46,040 Speaker 2: So far, interns just sets us say a thank and reading. 273 00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:49,120 Speaker 2: For Henrietta Trece, we send her a case a yingling beer. 274 00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:55,800 Speaker 2: Lauren Hawkfield her when she was last on Stop Traffic. 275 00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:58,880 Speaker 2: She's out of Yale, She's at Morgan Stanley. She's an 276 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:02,160 Speaker 2: institution on real li State. It's a big you know, 277 00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:05,120 Speaker 2: it's like Michael Mobison. It's a big picture real estate chat. 278 00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:07,640 Speaker 2: But underneath it all is to try to figure out 279 00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:10,640 Speaker 2: how much money we're going to lose. Lauren, where is 280 00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:15,080 Speaker 2: the buy the dip winner right now in American real estate? 281 00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:17,160 Speaker 1: Gosh? 282 00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:18,880 Speaker 5: Well, first of all, thanks for having me back. 283 00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:20,560 Speaker 4: It's great to be with you. 284 00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:24,120 Speaker 5: I think the nice thing is that the dip seems 285 00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:28,040 Speaker 5: to be affecting all real estate asset classes, all repriced 286 00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:32,200 Speaker 5: almost across the board. But some of those are repriced 287 00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:35,880 Speaker 5: for a reason, and some we think are actually really healthy, 288 00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:37,320 Speaker 5: really great outline. 289 00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:40,120 Speaker 2: Give me, give me one of the healthy ones right now. 290 00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:41,640 Speaker 2: I got to make some money this morning. 291 00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:47,920 Speaker 5: Well, let's start with Let's start with industrial. There are 292 00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:52,080 Speaker 5: really three reasons we love industrial. The first is, let's 293 00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:55,520 Speaker 5: look at the supply chain. We are rerooting and re 294 00:15:55,760 --> 00:16:00,960 Speaker 5: routing rerouting changing where goods are manufactured, near shoring, on 295 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 5: shoring of goods, et cetera, and rerouting changing how those 296 00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:07,200 Speaker 5: goods get to the end consumer. And so all of 297 00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:11,400 Speaker 5: that creates demand for industrial. The second is the continued 298 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 5: rise in e commerce. Right, we all seem to be 299 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:16,760 Speaker 5: buying more and more of our goods online and demanding 300 00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 5: it faster and faster. That creates demand for industrial. And 301 00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:25,000 Speaker 5: the third, really, which I think is under reported, is 302 00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:29,720 Speaker 5: just this dramatic falloff in new construction. So when you 303 00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 5: feel like demand is really strong and supply is curtailed, 304 00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:35,960 Speaker 5: that's a good sign for an asset. 305 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 3: One of the themes that's out there, Lauren, just investors 306 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:42,840 Speaker 3: in general is an aging population. How do you play 307 00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 3: that in real estate? 308 00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:46,480 Speaker 2: Yeah? 309 00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:50,160 Speaker 5: It is. This is really important because as people age, 310 00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:54,160 Speaker 5: their needs for real estate change, right, And we know 311 00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:57,960 Speaker 5: we have an aging population, and in particular, the growth 312 00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:01,920 Speaker 5: in our population is coming from two cohorts. It's the 313 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:05,000 Speaker 5: millennials and it's the boomers. And let me tell you, 314 00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:08,120 Speaker 5: when you look at housing needs, their needs are changing. 315 00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:11,920 Speaker 5: The millennials they're needing more space, and the boomers they're 316 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:16,800 Speaker 5: needing more services, more healthcare, services in particular. So I'd say, 317 00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:20,960 Speaker 5: in the case of the millennials, there's a move towards 318 00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:26,840 Speaker 5: single family rental, that's a great beneficiary of millennial demand. 319 00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:31,000 Speaker 5: In the case of the boomers, we are really optimistic 320 00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:34,640 Speaker 5: about senior housing because the number of seniors is up 321 00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:37,920 Speaker 5: and the wealth heldo by those seniors is up, and 322 00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:39,600 Speaker 5: industrials supply down. 323 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:42,680 Speaker 2: Laurd the big service that the the boomers are looking 324 00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:45,920 Speaker 2: for is can you find me a dog walker? I mean, 325 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:49,239 Speaker 2: that's really what it comes down to, Lauren. There's a 326 00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:53,479 Speaker 2: national housing crisis. Now you tell me single family rentals 327 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:56,160 Speaker 2: are going to work. And as you well know, Blackstone 328 00:17:56,160 --> 00:18:00,199 Speaker 2: has been a pinata where big inst evil institutions is 329 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:05,320 Speaker 2: like Morgan, Stanley and Blackstone are taking out single family rentals. 330 00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:08,760 Speaker 2: I mean, you're definitive on this. Respond to the idea 331 00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:12,520 Speaker 2: that evil New York City institutions are buying up all 332 00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:16,359 Speaker 2: the single family home rentals, boosting the price of a rent. 333 00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:20,600 Speaker 5: Look, we think there's a better way to do it, 334 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:24,440 Speaker 5: and the way we execute is build to rent. So 335 00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:29,680 Speaker 5: we are building new supply in purpose built communities where 336 00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:33,440 Speaker 5: residents get the benefits of multifamilies, so they get highly 337 00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:39,000 Speaker 5: amenditized community living, but the benefits of single family insofar 338 00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:42,359 Speaker 5: as they're larger units, they get their four walls and 339 00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:46,280 Speaker 5: we're adding supplies, so we're not competing with individuals looking 340 00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:49,960 Speaker 5: to buy homes. I think we're helping the affordability crisis there. 341 00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:54,919 Speaker 3: So Lauren on office real estate, do we have a 342 00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:58,720 Speaker 3: sense of where the market is an urban larger urban 343 00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:00,960 Speaker 3: markets in this country for off real estate. Have we 344 00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:03,880 Speaker 3: had transactions that are actually setting the market price for us? 345 00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:05,560 Speaker 2: Yeah? 346 00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:09,000 Speaker 5: So there's wide buy furcation here, right, And so there 347 00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:11,760 Speaker 5: are certain type of office that I think will continue 348 00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:15,520 Speaker 5: to really perform, the best of the best office, that 349 00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:19,280 Speaker 5: which has the right characteristics to attract tenants, that which 350 00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:23,480 Speaker 5: has the right frankly sustainability characteristics. We think that will 351 00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:27,200 Speaker 5: continue to do well as we go ahead. And I'd 352 00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:29,720 Speaker 5: say there's not been a lot of that trading, but 353 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:32,159 Speaker 5: we think that will continue to perform. And what I 354 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:35,639 Speaker 5: can tell you is that rents in some of those assets, 355 00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:40,080 Speaker 5: even in markets like San Francisco, are above pre COVID levels. 356 00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:43,000 Speaker 5: Flip it to the other end of the spectrum, and 357 00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:46,080 Speaker 5: there's office that simply shouldn't exist as office, and that's 358 00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:49,960 Speaker 5: trading seventy plus percent down because it needs to be 359 00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:51,720 Speaker 5: converted to an alternative use. 360 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:55,359 Speaker 3: Okay, and are we seeing some of those transactions in 361 00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:57,640 Speaker 3: the B and C type office because I'm just thinking 362 00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:00,640 Speaker 3: about New York City or Third Avenue from fifty eighth 363 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:03,720 Speaker 3: Street to forty second Street. What's that market like? 364 00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:08,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, so you're starting to see some conversions of office 365 00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:12,520 Speaker 5: to residential. I would warn that there are only certain 366 00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:14,960 Speaker 5: types of buildings for which that works. Tends to be 367 00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:19,000 Speaker 5: smaller floor plans, floor plates, tends to be buildings with 368 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:23,200 Speaker 5: more windows. There are a variety of different physical characteristics 369 00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:26,439 Speaker 5: that make certain buildings better contenders than others. But are 370 00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:29,280 Speaker 5: we are in the very early innings of that. And 371 00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:32,720 Speaker 5: part of that is similar to Post nine to eleven. 372 00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:35,880 Speaker 5: There is some private public partnership. 373 00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 2: Thanks so much. This has been great, Lauren, don't be 374 00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:53,640 Speaker 2: a stranger. Love to have into the office, Lauren, your data. 375 00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:55,879 Speaker 2: Look at the front page. Is Jen Tucker in for 376 00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:59,280 Speaker 2: Lisa Matteo, John Tucker with the newspapers? 377 00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:02,560 Speaker 6: Yeah, this one comes from the Washington Post. This morning, 378 00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:07,359 Speaker 6: George Stephanopholis caught on camera expressing doubts about Joe Biden. 379 00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:11,639 Speaker 6: The ABC news anchor, who of course recently interviewed President 380 00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:14,040 Speaker 6: Biden about his fitness for the race, was caught on 381 00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:17,879 Speaker 6: camera yesterday indicating he doesn't think Biden can serve another 382 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:22,760 Speaker 6: four years. So he's seen in jim clothes outside the 383 00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:26,080 Speaker 6: studios in a video published by TMZ. He's asked by 384 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:28,480 Speaker 6: a passer by what do you think do you think 385 00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:30,359 Speaker 6: Biden should step down? We've talked to him more than 386 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:33,040 Speaker 6: anybody else lately, and you can be honest, I don't 387 00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:35,880 Speaker 6: think Stephanopholis doesn't look like he was actually he knew 388 00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:39,160 Speaker 6: he was being recorded here, just off camera. He's captured 389 00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:42,639 Speaker 6: on fuzzy audio responding he doesn't think he can serve 390 00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:47,439 Speaker 6: four more years Satan. Late yesterday, Stephanopolis acknowledged he was 391 00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:50,440 Speaker 6: the person seen in the video. The remarks come days 392 00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:52,399 Speaker 6: after the interview with Biden, during which. 393 00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:53,520 Speaker 2: Choel TMZ think. 394 00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:56,040 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, I don't know if the person was 395 00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:59,439 Speaker 6: working for TMZ or just you know, but again that. 396 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:01,760 Speaker 2: Means so John, you live this every day. You're out 397 00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:03,920 Speaker 2: it on the deck at Atlantic Highlands, and you've got 398 00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 2: to be worried that you're recorded. 399 00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:09,760 Speaker 6: Nobody over the lobster Atlanet Earth here is what I 400 00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:10,600 Speaker 6: think about A. 401 00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:12,199 Speaker 3: But it goes to the issue John, I mean a 402 00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:15,720 Speaker 3: can he win an election? Be can President Biden serve 403 00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:18,200 Speaker 3: a four year term? So it's a valid question. 404 00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 2: The gentleman from ABC is not looking at the immediacy 405 00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:24,359 Speaker 2: and the debate that's out there, whether it's Trump or Biden. 406 00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:27,200 Speaker 2: He's saying, either of these people have to get out 407 00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:30,160 Speaker 2: four years. Yeah, I have to get out four years. 408 00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:33,879 Speaker 6: Right, you know, well, good luck with that. This is 409 00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:38,400 Speaker 6: from the Wall Street Journal. Ivy League alumni clubs hustling 410 00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:42,600 Speaker 6: for members. I go home on sixty six Street, Acrosstown. 411 00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:44,640 Speaker 6: I don't know how many of those Ivy League clubs 412 00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:48,000 Speaker 6: I pass. Yeah, I could never get into one because 413 00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:50,280 Speaker 6: I'll give you well, I went to Harvard on the Hackensack. 414 00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:53,159 Speaker 6: Maybe that counts. The Prince. The Princeton Club in New 415 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:57,520 Speaker 6: York losing members bleeding cash before closing its doors in 416 00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:01,040 Speaker 6: twenty twenty one. Some remaining members exploded a ditch overhaul 417 00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:04,120 Speaker 6: that's stalled, so it's closed. So now the Ivy League 418 00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:07,240 Speaker 6: schools with clubs of New York tend to keep most 419 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:10,160 Speaker 6: membership and other information private, but some of the recent 420 00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 6: events suggests more distress the Yale Club, for instance, changing 421 00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:16,520 Speaker 6: its admission policy. You don't have to have. 422 00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:19,199 Speaker 2: You don't have to go to Yelle Club. I'll give 423 00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:21,000 Speaker 2: you one vignette on this quick. I didn't take a 424 00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:23,280 Speaker 2: lot of time on this, but I believe it was 425 00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:26,000 Speaker 2: Princeton University Press called me up and they said, Common 426 00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:28,440 Speaker 2: is going to be here doing his book. And there 427 00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:31,160 Speaker 2: I am at the Princeton University Club with Paul Voker 428 00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:35,640 Speaker 2: and Daniel Kahneman as he talks about his iconic book. 429 00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:38,280 Speaker 2: And we've just lost him, of course, and it's great. 430 00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:41,800 Speaker 2: My basic take John on this is the Harvard Club. 431 00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:44,320 Speaker 2: They've put a lot of money into and they kept 432 00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:47,640 Speaker 2: it spruced up over the years. The others, I don't 433 00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:51,080 Speaker 2: think they've done a thing since nineteen sixty two. Like 434 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:54,119 Speaker 2: you know, they they just ran out of time and 435 00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:58,680 Speaker 2: they didn't keep the investment going to make them fancy. 436 00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:01,800 Speaker 6: You don't appeal to a younger generation when you have 437 00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:05,560 Speaker 6: like these, you know, big stuffy cheers and like cigars. 438 00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:11,240 Speaker 2: Smart there Daniel Balloon's there's you know, Cafe Ballue. That's 439 00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:12,360 Speaker 2: where the young kids are. 440 00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:15,159 Speaker 6: Anyway. This next one's from the Wall Street Chournal. The 441 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:21,160 Speaker 6: latest cringe worthy corporate buzzword. The CEO of the healthcare 442 00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:24,639 Speaker 6: Comany recently discussed his company's latest results during the Q 443 00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:27,159 Speaker 6: and A. One of the analysts said, I wanted to 444 00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:30,359 Speaker 6: double click a bit on some of the commentary you had. 445 00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:33,359 Speaker 6: This is one of the fastest spreading corporate buzzwords in 446 00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:37,920 Speaker 6: recent years. Double click. I think it's a little obnoxious, 447 00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:42,160 Speaker 6: but double click defenders say the phrase encourages deeper thinking. 448 00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:46,280 Speaker 2: I read the article. I'm as guilty of this as anybody, 449 00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:49,399 Speaker 2: and I don't you know double click is it? You know? 450 00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:50,440 Speaker 2: Like does it? I don't know. 451 00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:57,680 Speaker 6: There's something about these tech inflicted buzzwords, especially after gain 452 00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:02,320 Speaker 6: traction you have like network band with takeoffline. The best 453 00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:05,840 Speaker 6: part of the article is the Wall Street Journal reporter 454 00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:10,320 Speaker 6: actually tracked down the guy who invented double click, the 455 00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:15,120 Speaker 6: real literal double click. The former Apple designer Bill Atkinson retired. 456 00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:18,120 Speaker 6: Now he was reached on his boat by the journal. 457 00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:22,920 Speaker 6: He says, now steer clear of such usage. 458 00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:25,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's not gonna Lisa will be double clicking again. 459 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:26,760 Speaker 2: I could just see Lisa, you. 460 00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:28,160 Speaker 6: Want one more? 461 00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:29,320 Speaker 2: Well? Please? All right? 462 00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:33,680 Speaker 6: From Bloomberg Law, Bolero accused of widespread age bias. A 463 00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:37,760 Speaker 6: federal lawsuit in New York charges Bolero to subsidiaries engaged 464 00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:43,240 Speaker 6: in nationwide discrimination against workers aged forty and older. In 465 00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:46,440 Speaker 6: a push to make over traditional bowling centers they acquired 466 00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:50,920 Speaker 6: into young hip entertainment centers. So, at least according to 467 00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:53,640 Speaker 6: this too, the hiring practice is that the companies implemented 468 00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:57,480 Speaker 6: part of the ship designed to preclude potential candidates age 469 00:25:57,560 --> 00:26:01,880 Speaker 6: forty or older from secure jobs at their bowling alleys. 470 00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:02,399 Speaker 2: This is. 471 00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:04,880 Speaker 3: Oh, it's a bowling. 472 00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:08,280 Speaker 6: Bolero is bowling.

It used to be bowl More and 474 00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:15,639 Speaker 6: they transformed themselves into a national brand and adopted the 475 00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:16,440 Speaker 6: name Bolero. 476 00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:17,720 Speaker 3: So people still bowl. 477 00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:20,639 Speaker 6: People still bowl, but they want to appeal to a 478 00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:24,040 Speaker 6: much younger audience. And that that's aside from this lawsuit. 479 00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:26,000 Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know if you guys ever were 480 00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:28,439 Speaker 2: down there, but down below Home Depot, we've got the 481 00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:33,080 Speaker 2: surveillance bowling lanes.
