Speaker 1: founder at Defiance E t f S, to talk to

9
00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:31,440
Speaker 1: us about markets. Bring us back, Sylvia. What are we

10
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:34,680
Speaker 1: looking at here in terms of inflation? Is Cameron just mentioned,

11
00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:37,360
Speaker 1: um the seven point nine print that we saw didn't

12
00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:42,040
Speaker 1: even have really this wartime inflation in it. We know

13
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:45,199
Speaker 1: that the inflation is an issue in the market. You know,

14
00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:49,720
Speaker 1: what what happens to inflation going forward is really the issue.

15
00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:52,199
Speaker 1: If you know, if if what we see going on

16
00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:55,360
Speaker 1: in Russia and Ukraine comes to an end in in

17
00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:58,200
Speaker 1: shorter order than you know, perhaps we go back to

18
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:00,680
Speaker 1: that that famous word transitory and something that we live

19
00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:03,600
Speaker 1: with for you know, another three to six months on

20
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:06,280
Speaker 1: top of what we were um expecting before and it

21
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:08,640
Speaker 1: kind of fades away. Into the early part of three.

22
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:11,679
Speaker 1: But it all depends on what happens I think with Russia.

23
00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:15,520
Speaker 1: So um, you know, the issue with with inflation in

24
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:18,960
Speaker 1: the market and as it continues to rise, is that consumers,

25
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 1: which have really pushed our economy forward and have strong

26
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:23,959
Speaker 1: savings and all these things that will help get us,

27
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:25,880
Speaker 1: you know, out of sort of a reception and keep

28
00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 1: us growing and keep us recovering from this, is that

29
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:31,800
Speaker 1: their sense of wealth wanes as that inflation number gets

30
00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:34,880
Speaker 1: higher and they make different spending decisions. So that's that's

31
00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:37,640
Speaker 1: I think really the risk of um, as you said,

32
00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:41,120
Speaker 1: inflation and potentially wartime inflation to the market. Well, so

33
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:44,280
Speaker 1: what I'm kind of questioning, here's a timeline of it,

34
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:46,440
Speaker 1: all right, because if you do have this wartime inflation,

35
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 1: we're already seeing it in prices kind of skyrocketing. How

36
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 1: long does it take to actually affect the consumer in

37
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 1: the real economy, because it kind of seems like there

38
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:57,480
Speaker 1: is a lag in that if you actually look at

39
00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:00,000
Speaker 1: the inflation print, Yes, it's a very high number. Seven

40
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:02,720
Speaker 1: point nine percent is not a good number necessarily, but

41
00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:05,800
Speaker 1: it isn't an upside surprise. It was bang Online Estimates,

42
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:08,000
Speaker 1: which you looked at the last year, a lot of

43
00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:11,840
Speaker 1: those prints were actually upside surprises. They were much higher

44
00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:13,679
Speaker 1: than the consensus was. This I think is one of

45
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:16,280
Speaker 1: the few times it was actually bang in line with estimates.

46
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:21,000
Speaker 1: Is there some kind of silver lining in that? And

47
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:23,400
Speaker 1: that's a great point. I you know, my sense is

48
00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:26,919
Speaker 1: that because a lot of the UM sanctions have only

49
00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:29,840
Speaker 1: started two weeks ago, it's not fully built into that number.

50
00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:32,120
Speaker 1: So I think that you know, March number will probably

51
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:35,360
Speaker 1: be a little bit uglier. But you know, the silver

52
00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:38,400
Speaker 1: lining here is really that consumer savings remain at all

53
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:42,280
Speaker 1: time highs UM. I think once rushing Ukraine situations beyond us,

54
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:45,760
Speaker 1: we go back to economic activity shining through. And you know,

55
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,959
Speaker 1: even with higher input costs like wages, commodities, companies that

56
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:53,320
Speaker 1: have considerable cash cushions larger too pre pandemic levels, and

57
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:55,560
Speaker 1: so do consumers. So you know who does it impact.

58
00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:59,200
Speaker 1: It really impacts the lower income consumer UM. You know,

59
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:01,520
Speaker 1: consumers that are that are sort of working and have

60
00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:03,839
Speaker 1: higher wages and saving from the bank. I mean, they're

61
00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:06,440
Speaker 1: unlikely to cancel their you know, trip to the shore

62
00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:09,040
Speaker 1: and not drive because gas is a little bit more expensive.

63
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:11,560
Speaker 1: In the short term. However, the longer that goes on,

64
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:14,519
Speaker 1: you know, the more that that dynamic does shift and

65
00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:17,160
Speaker 1: it does kind of change the way that we behave.

66
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 1: So in the near term, right now, I think we'll

67
00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:22,600
Speaker 1: be okay. But I do think that, you know, the

68
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:24,519
Speaker 1: situation has to come to an end or or it

69
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:26,760
Speaker 1: will sort of spell a different situation for the market.

70
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:31,639
Speaker 1: Is there, uh Um? I guess a boilerplate e t

71
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:37,920
Speaker 1: F strategy to fight inflation. Uh you have, I mean,

72
00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:41,960
Speaker 1: you definitely have some inflation you know, inflation fighting e

73
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 1: t F products. Um A story. Advisors recently launched a

74
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:48,360
Speaker 1: new one that's worth looking at. But I think, you know,

75
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:51,560
Speaker 1: I think with this it's it's not so much because

76
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 1: I think it's going to be transitory. I think, you know,

77
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 1: it's worth looking at those types of products, but I

78
00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:58,240
Speaker 1: also think it's it's worth just looking at, you know,

79
00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:01,000
Speaker 1: buying on the dips and these types of markets. Right

80
00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:03,320
Speaker 1: I think that a lot of the process and taken

81
00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:06,120
Speaker 1: off of big megacat names. For example, you know, queues

82
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:09,560
Speaker 1: are at a discount. Nazac w off of highs um

83
00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:12,560
Speaker 1: things like five G that you need to power you know,

84
00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 1: the future of electric vehicles augmented reality, AI, metaverse, all

85
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:21,240
Speaker 1: the stuff we're talking about before UM, the Russia Ukraine UM,

86
00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:23,920
Speaker 1: you know issue came into the market. I think that

87
00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:26,560
Speaker 1: basically a lot of the E t F that that

88
00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:30,440
Speaker 1: focus on secular growth stories UM and and hold. You know,

89
00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:34,680
Speaker 1: companies with strong UM cash reserve, bound sheets and and

90
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:36,880
Speaker 1: that are part of the future are worth looking at

91
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:38,960
Speaker 1: now too. So I would just I would argue that

92
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:40,440
Speaker 1: there are a lot of good deals out there, and

93
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:42,920
Speaker 1: they don't have to be inflation hides per se um.

94
00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:45,920
Speaker 1: You know, divin end bts like aristocrats, you know, people

95
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:48,559
Speaker 1: like to keep consistent income, so even if the share

96
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:51,479
Speaker 1: prices following, you're getting the income on on some dips there.

97
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:53,320
Speaker 1: So you know, those are some different ideas that you

98
00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:55,200
Speaker 1: sud look at. Have I told you, Sylvia that we're

99
00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 1: restarting relaunching the E t F Show, a weekly special

100
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:04,440
Speaker 1: every Monday at one p m. Did you see how

101
00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:07,760
Speaker 1: he ron kg not creedy group to Katie Greifeldt will

102
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:10,760
Speaker 1: be joining that program. But do you see how sneakily

103
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:14,560
Speaker 1: he stuck that in there. It's not even a shameless plug.

104
00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:16,400
Speaker 1: It's a lot of grade. There are a lot of

105
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:18,240
Speaker 1: great ets out there, and I think a lot of

106
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 1: them have launched since that show had stopped, so you'll

107
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:24,040
Speaker 1: you'll have some good content to talk about well, and

108
00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:27,000
Speaker 1: hopefully you'll join us as well. We can call that

109
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:31,719
Speaker 1: episode the Big Jablonsky Awesome, Sylvia, thank you so much

110
00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 1: for joining us. Sylvia Jablonsky, their chief investment officer over

111
00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:42,839
Speaker 1: at Defiance ETFs. Let's get back to Hugh Johnson, Chairman

112
00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:45,360
Speaker 1: and chief economist at Hugh Johnson Economics. Hugh, I'm sorry

113
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:48,599
Speaker 1: to have had to cut you off there um for

114
00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:50,359
Speaker 1: the president, but of course we wanted to hear what

115
00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 1: he was going to say. And you know, what's your

116
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,440
Speaker 1: take on on the move um and on the sanctions

117
00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:59,680
Speaker 1: that we've seen thus far. Well, he's turning up. I

118
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:03,120
Speaker 1: think the word is as as your reporter suggested, as

119
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:06,720
Speaker 1: escalates and bit by bit, and what we're seeing is

120
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:10,760
Speaker 1: just bit by bit turning up the pressure on Biden.

121
00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:13,520
Speaker 1: It doesn't seem to have had much of an effect,

122
00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 1: yet you will see it have an effect. The economy

123
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:20,120
Speaker 1: of Russia is really a big question mark, and it's

124
00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:24,080
Speaker 1: going to go to positive two growth rates. We were

125
00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:26,360
Speaker 1: talking about maybe a month or a month and a

126
00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:28,840
Speaker 1: half ago, and it's going to be negative, But is

127
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:31,359
Speaker 1: how much negative it could be? As much as a

128
00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:36,200
Speaker 1: contraction of in the Russian economy to one extent, is

129
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:39,680
Speaker 1: that going to put enough pressure on Putin to change

130
00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:42,600
Speaker 1: his approach? You know, there's not much evidence he's going

131
00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:44,760
Speaker 1: to change his approach, but we certainly want him to

132
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:47,279
Speaker 1: do that. And you can see the response of the

133
00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:51,040
Speaker 1: markets today when there was wind of perhaps some agreement

134
00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:54,599
Speaker 1: being reached, the markets were performing positively. So the markets

135
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:57,240
Speaker 1: obviously want to see an end of this. Otherwise we're

136
00:06:57,240 --> 00:06:59,520
Speaker 1: going to see a sort of back and forth, the

137
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:03,640
Speaker 1: type of a volatile financial market environment for a while. Now,

138
00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:07,800
Speaker 1: you let's stick with the markets here and the economy.

139
00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:12,120
Speaker 1: I'm curious about the conversation on demand destruction, on potential

140
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 1: interest rate cuts down the road after we kind of

141
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:19,360
Speaker 1: returned to this normal policy, more monterary policy. How seriously

142
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:22,200
Speaker 1: is the market taking the r word right now, the

143
00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:26,360
Speaker 1: recession word. That's a great question. And the reason it's

144
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:28,760
Speaker 1: a great question is if you take a look at

145
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:32,560
Speaker 1: what the markets have done since really January four we've

146
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:36,600
Speaker 1: had a lot of fourteen decline in the SMP. And

147
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:40,040
Speaker 1: you asked the question is this decline in the stock market,

148
00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:42,360
Speaker 1: which could be called a correction in other words, of

149
00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:45,680
Speaker 1: decline in stock prices that will not be accompanied by

150
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:47,800
Speaker 1: a recession, or is it the start of a bear

151
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:52,080
Speaker 1: market that will be accompanied by a recession. The markets

152
00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:55,280
Speaker 1: are taking that possibility seriously, But I think the conclusion

153
00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:59,320
Speaker 1: of the markets again four decline and take a look

154
00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:02,040
Speaker 1: at some of the other or variables, such as leading

155
00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:05,480
Speaker 1: indicators for the economy, the yield curve, which allows us

156
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:08,680
Speaker 1: to sort of measure the probability of a recession starting

157
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:11,560
Speaker 1: in twelve months, And the answer is this is looking

158
00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:15,960
Speaker 1: like a correction in an ongoing bull market, but a

159
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:20,120
Speaker 1: very severe correction. Now I say severe, it's not altogether different.

160
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,880
Speaker 1: It's actually a little bit less than the normal post

161
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:26,720
Speaker 1: war correction, which has been about over four months. So

162
00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 1: we probably have a little bit further to go if

163
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:32,959
Speaker 1: we use averages. But nevertheless, I think that the conclusion

164
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:36,960
Speaker 1: of the markets now is tentatively this is only a correction.

165
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:39,480
Speaker 1: It's not the start of a bearer market that's going

166
00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:44,920
Speaker 1: to be accompanied by an economic contraction or resission. So um,

167
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:46,560
Speaker 1: I want I want to get your take on a

168
00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:49,880
Speaker 1: couple of things that we've heard from market participants. Jeff

169
00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:52,960
Speaker 1: Gunlock has said he couldn't see he could envision inflation

170
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:55,760
Speaker 1: at in double digits, maybe at ten percent of those

171
00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:57,480
Speaker 1: base cases for seven and a half at the end

172
00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:00,719
Speaker 1: of the year. And Goldman Sachs um had last night

173
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 1: that there's a thirty five percent chance of a recession

174
00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:08,640
Speaker 1: next year. What do you think about those uh two forecasts?

175
00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:12,520
Speaker 1: Is not a big number, but it's still too high,

176
00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:15,760
Speaker 1: And my judgment, I bring it down to we're gonna

177
00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:18,320
Speaker 1: try to quantify the probability of a recession, so that

178
00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:21,319
Speaker 1: I kind of am not with Goldman sachs on that

179
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:24,160
Speaker 1: number UM as far as ten percent. When we get

180
00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:27,319
Speaker 1: up to ten percent inflation. That also, I have very

181
00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:30,360
Speaker 1: a variety of leading indicators of inflation. I don't see

182
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:34,880
Speaker 1: that in the cards talking about six consumer inflation now,

183
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:37,160
Speaker 1: it's probably gonna stay. It'll be a big number for

184
00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:39,000
Speaker 1: the month of March. I think we all know that.

185
00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:41,439
Speaker 1: So we're gonna have a high number for the first

186
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:44,679
Speaker 1: quarter for the consumer price index. But I think as

187
00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:46,920
Speaker 1: we get not to the second quarter, but the third

188
00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:49,680
Speaker 1: and fourth quarter, you're going to see the rate of inflation.

189
00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:52,800
Speaker 1: You're over your rate of inflation coming down, It's not

190
00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:55,480
Speaker 1: going to come down as much as the consensus expects.

191
00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:58,280
Speaker 1: The consensus expects it to come down to a two

192
00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:00,760
Speaker 1: and a half percent, I think and a half percent

193
00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:03,199
Speaker 1: the number we'll get there by the end of this year.

194
00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:06,760
Speaker 1: And that's what leading indicators of inflation are telling me

195
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,840
Speaker 1: very clearly. So no to good luck on this ten percent,

196
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:13,439
Speaker 1: and probably too high on the thirty chance of a recession,

197
00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:17,320
Speaker 1: although that's certainly I've seen higher numbers. All right, great

198
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:19,679
Speaker 1: to get your take. You thanks so much for joining

199
00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:22,720
Speaker 1: us and for sticking with us throughout the president's speech.

200
00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:26,240
Speaker 1: Hugh Johnson is the chairman and chief economist of Hugh

201
00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:29,120
Speaker 1: Johnson Economics, also an advisor to great Point, and it's

202
00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:35,760
Speaker 1: Hugh Johnson Advisor's division. Let's get over to David Katz

203
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:40,240
Speaker 1: right now, President c IO of Matrix Asset Advisors. David,

204
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:44,160
Speaker 1: I've talked with so many investment professionals this week who've

205
00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:47,600
Speaker 1: said I haven't had any sleep. I'm seriously worried about

206
00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:51,120
Speaker 1: heart palpitations. Um, how do you deal with this kind

207
00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:55,440
Speaker 1: of volatility? Well, the best thing to do is to

208
00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:58,040
Speaker 1: take a longer time, arise and try to put the

209
00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:01,199
Speaker 1: market in some historical perspective, and if you do that,

210
00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:05,199
Speaker 1: you actually can feel pretty comfortable. Since there have been

211
00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:09,040
Speaker 1: thirty five corrections of five percent or more. Uh, number

212
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:11,960
Speaker 1: of those were the ten to fifteent level. And what's

213
00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:14,800
Speaker 1: critical here is that if you look in the aftermath

214
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:18,920
Speaker 1: of those corrections, stocks rebound much quicker than anybody anticipates.

215
00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:22,480
Speaker 1: The actual rebound is it about four point seven months.

216
00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:25,319
Speaker 1: So we think that the best thing to do turn

217
00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:28,600
Speaker 1: the noise down. Turn turn the news down. Uh, take

218
00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:31,040
Speaker 1: this nine to twelve month perspective, and we think there's

219
00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:35,160
Speaker 1: some great buying opportunities being presented. There's an enormous likelihood

220
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:37,880
Speaker 1: that a week and a month later you're gonna feel stupid.

221
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:40,640
Speaker 1: The stocks will be lower, But nine and twelve months later,

222
00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:42,560
Speaker 1: these will have been great buys and you're likely going

223
00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:44,480
Speaker 1: to be making a lot of money. Okay, but don't

224
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:48,360
Speaker 1: don't turn the news down. Don't don't don't turn off

225
00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:52,760
Speaker 1: Bloomberg Radio. What else would you listen to? You're you're right,

226
00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:55,520
Speaker 1: you gotta listen to the news. Just don't react in

227
00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:58,439
Speaker 1: terms of your stock market investments based up on the

228
00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:02,480
Speaker 1: bad news you've heard. First here folks listen to Bloomberg

229
00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:05,840
Speaker 1: Radio very important. Um, what's interesting to me? I gotta say,

230
00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:09,000
Speaker 1: I listened to so I'm so glad to have moved

231
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:12,160
Speaker 1: back to the US because of serious x M. I'll

232
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:14,720
Speaker 1: listen to Bloomberg. I'll listen to the Grateful Dead Channel

233
00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:18,680
Speaker 1: sometimes Fish, I only listen to Bloomberg Radio. That is

234
00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:22,760
Speaker 1: my level of loyalty, Matt. But whatever, Um, David, let's

235
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:25,240
Speaker 1: talk to us. That you talking about buying essentially essentially

236
00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:27,800
Speaker 1: buying the dip. This is something that's kind of pressure

237
00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:33,400
Speaker 1: we haven't seen. I feel like since the crash, Um,

238
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:36,920
Speaker 1: how much further can stocks fall before we see perhaps

239
00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:40,319
Speaker 1: some sustainable games here. Well, stocks on a day to

240
00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:42,800
Speaker 1: day basis really can do anything. And you do have

241
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:45,000
Speaker 1: some pretty negative news out of Russia in the Ukraine,

242
00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:48,079
Speaker 1: and you have some negative inflation news and negative oil news. However,

243
00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:52,040
Speaker 1: a lot of as impacting stocks already, so stocks could

244
00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:56,040
Speaker 1: easily move down five from here. However, we do think

245
00:12:56,080 --> 00:13:00,320
Speaker 1: that when they rebound, you're gonna get a rebound. You

246
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:02,240
Speaker 1: never know where the bottom is. We think that it's

247
00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:04,560
Speaker 1: down enough that most of the damage has been done,

248
00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:07,319
Speaker 1: so we're very comfortable buying here, and there are a

249
00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:09,200
Speaker 1: lot of stocks that have just been creamed that have

250
00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:13,199
Speaker 1: very good fundamentals, are a great prices? Are your Are

251
00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:17,160
Speaker 1: your clients more concerned with preserving capital right now though

252
00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:22,240
Speaker 1: than um than growing well? Typically during a down market,

253
00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:24,480
Speaker 1: everybody tries to think about, oh, my goodness, I don't

254
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:26,520
Speaker 1: want to lose money. How do I preserve capital? And

255
00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:29,800
Speaker 1: people are less focused on making money. But the best

256
00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:32,400
Speaker 1: thing to do is set up a long term massive allocation.

257
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:35,560
Speaker 1: Not to get overly enthusiastic when stocks are great in

258
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:38,360
Speaker 1: thinking that you're doing wonderfully, and not to get overly

259
00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:40,480
Speaker 1: negative when you're doing badly. And I think you had

260
00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:44,960
Speaker 1: mentioned March of when the COVID pandemic broke out. You

261
00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:48,960
Speaker 1: had a thirty five percent correction in a matter of weeks,

262
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:50,920
Speaker 1: and it looked like the world was coming to an end,

263
00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:54,280
Speaker 1: and it actually was on a health side, But the

264
00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:57,280
Speaker 1: market fully recovered that it was up nicely for the year.

265
00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:00,360
Speaker 1: If you were selling into that bad news, you locked

266
00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:03,200
Speaker 1: in your losses and didn't get the recovery. So again,

267
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:07,480
Speaker 1: not getting overly concerned about the really bad news in

268
00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:09,959
Speaker 1: terms of its financial implications, and and sort of being

269
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:12,720
Speaker 1: a contrarian was very helpful. Then we think it's going

270
00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:15,079
Speaker 1: to be helpful now. There was an article this weekend

271
00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:20,160
Speaker 1: in Barrens that talked about how stock markets did after wars,

272
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:24,200
Speaker 1: terrorist attacks, geopolitical events. In the bottom line was six

273
00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:26,840
Speaker 1: to twelve months later, stocks are generally a lot higher.

274
00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:29,800
Speaker 1: So for a lot of reasons. You know, we're pretty

275
00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:32,240
Speaker 1: comfortable here, David, thanks so much for joining us. Appreciate

276
00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:35,720
Speaker 1: your insight today. David Kats, President, ce IO of Matrix

277
00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:42,080
Speaker 1: Asset Advisers. Let's get over right now to Andrew Channon,

278
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:47,000
Speaker 1: the CEO of procure Am, to talk to us about

279
00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:50,880
Speaker 1: what we see going on in terms of um well,

280
00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:53,400
Speaker 1: space is what we always focus on with Andrew and

281
00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:57,680
Speaker 1: Uh they run the UFO E t F. I would

282
00:14:57,720 --> 00:15:01,760
Speaker 1: have thought that there is little connection, um well, I

283
00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:03,920
Speaker 1: hadn't thought about it, frankly until Cretty pointed out that

284
00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:06,360
Speaker 1: the Russians are so active in space. Andrew, how does

285
00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:10,840
Speaker 1: that affect your business from so many different ways? And

286
00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:13,320
Speaker 1: if you look at you from the even before the

287
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:17,040
Speaker 1: invasion occurred, we had companies like max Argo have satellite

288
00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:19,760
Speaker 1: pointed at borders all around the world. That was providing

289
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:22,120
Speaker 1: us with real time information of the troop build up

290
00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 1: outside of Ukraine, and as time has progressed, we've seen

291
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:30,280
Speaker 1: a ton of changes. We've seen breakups of relationships surrounding

292
00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:33,880
Speaker 1: the International Space Station. We've seen Russia refusing to sense

293
00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:37,600
Speaker 1: engines for rockets um and as they are closing this off,

294
00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:41,040
Speaker 1: we've even seen them hold hostage of thirty six one

295
00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:44,840
Speaker 1: web satellites at the back of door launchpad in Kazakhstan.

296
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:49,040
Speaker 1: And so as they are becoming more protectivists of their

297
00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:52,600
Speaker 1: space industry, it's creating many opportunities that are opening up

298
00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:56,240
Speaker 1: for commercial space business outside of Russia. So there's a

299
00:15:56,280 --> 00:15:58,920
Speaker 1: lot going on, and you know, the military and defense

300
00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:01,880
Speaker 1: side of it is roamly critical at this time. So

301
00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:04,640
Speaker 1: let's put a market lens on this. How do you

302
00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:07,600
Speaker 1: play it? How do you trade it? So, yeah, we

303
00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:11,240
Speaker 1: created UFO to provide a diversified vehicle for investors that

304
00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:15,040
Speaker 1: want to get global diversification to the to the space industry.

305
00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:20,000
Speaker 1: So we have over forty companies currently in UFO specializing

306
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:22,960
Speaker 1: in all different areas. So you have your defense uh

307
00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:26,640
Speaker 1: and and even weapons manufacturers that are helping to build

308
00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:30,600
Speaker 1: different technologies that help militaries around the world utilizing space

309
00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:35,640
Speaker 1: their satellites, communications, observations, surveillance, which is also very critical

310
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:39,000
Speaker 1: not just for military times, but for for many other things,

311
00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:42,600
Speaker 1: even including tracking climate change. So, you know, with so

312
00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:46,600
Speaker 1: many relevant areas that are becoming priorities around the world,

313
00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:50,080
Speaker 1: spaces helping address many of these problems and providing solutions.

314
00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:52,520
Speaker 1: Is it is there a point where you think we

315
00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:59,880
Speaker 1: need to have um many different multiple space ETFs because

316
00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:03,600
Speaker 1: it's it's become such a big business that you can

317
00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:06,800
Speaker 1: break it down in so many different ways. I would

318
00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:09,520
Speaker 1: never say that, you know, we we need more competition.

319
00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:12,720
Speaker 1: I'm I'm really happy with the partners that we've made

320
00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:15,320
Speaker 1: in the index that we've licensed. The underlying index is

321
00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:18,560
Speaker 1: actually a collaboration with a former director of research from

322
00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:22,679
Speaker 1: the Space Foundation actually helped build the most popular global

323
00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:25,600
Speaker 1: model that's used for actually calculating the size, growth and

324
00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:28,280
Speaker 1: change of the space industry. So we have a really

325
00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:31,159
Speaker 1: great team that we love working with, and there's been

326
00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:34,720
Speaker 1: a ton of research that actually goes into developing this concept.

327
00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:36,440
Speaker 1: It wasn't just hey can you build one, let's go

328
00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:38,359
Speaker 1: and license it. There was a lot of work that

329
00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:42,400
Speaker 1: was done beforehand, and um, they really look at companies

330
00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:45,560
Speaker 1: deriving revenues from the space industry. So this is the

331
00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:48,840
Speaker 1: first sure play global space etf out there, and it

332
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:51,440
Speaker 1: was one done with a lot of consideration taking into

333
00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:55,920
Speaker 1: before bringing this product out. Just want to quickly ask,

334
00:17:56,680 --> 00:18:02,520
Speaker 1: what's your favorite space movie? I mean, we had a

335
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:06,880
Speaker 1: big debate about this. I'll watch anything with space related um,

336
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:10,480
Speaker 1: and definitely tons of TV shows, but happy to be yours.

337
00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:13,280
Speaker 1: It's hard. I mean, I don't know. Armageddon is great,

338
00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:17,280
Speaker 1: Intergalactic is amazing. Um, you know I love two thousand

339
00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:19,119
Speaker 1: and one. In two thousand and ten, I'm gonna I

340
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:21,640
Speaker 1: love space movies as well. So I just thought i'd

341
00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:25,280

342
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:28,000
Speaker 1: was very good. Yeah, very good. Peter Stormare I think

343
00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:30,359
Speaker 1: is the best space astronaut. He's the one who always

344
00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:34,520
Speaker 1: plays the crazy, drunk cosmonaut even though he's not Russian,
