Drones is something that's 29 00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 1: They've been around, but now their uses are expanding rapidly 30 00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 1: due to technology and realization that they can be used 31 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:44,840 Speaker 1: for agriculture, to fight diseases, UH, for medical um UH 32 00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 1: for for dropping on medical supplies and remote areas. These 33 00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:50,280 Speaker 1: are things that the uses as technology increases, will be 34 00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 1: much more prevalent in our society. The Pure Funds Drone 35 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:56,280 Speaker 1: Economy Strategy e t F has two point six million 36 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 1: dollars in total assets and an expense ratio of seventy five. 37 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:03,800 Speaker 1: Based his points, it's top holdings include Parrot Air, Environment, Bowing, 38 00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 1: and go Pro.

What 44 00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:30,960 Speaker 1: to do with your money? John Manley is the chief 45 00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:34,960 Speaker 1: equity strategist at Wells Fargo Funds Management, helping to manage 46 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 1: two hundred and forty five billion dollars, and he joins 47 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 1: us here in the studio. John, thank you very much 48 00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 1: for coming in. Thank you for having me. All right, 49 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:47,200 Speaker 1: equity strategist. You're getting a lot of calls from people saying, 50 00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 1: I can't live on my bond income. Can you help 51 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 1: me out with some equities? Yeah? Absolutely, It's been going 52 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 1: on for a while. And what else are you gonna do? 53 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:57,000 Speaker 1: I think it's it's the worst form of investment except 54 00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:58,920 Speaker 1: for all the others. When it comes to yield, and 55 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 1: I think you can they'll buy pretty good, actually pretty 56 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:05,400 Speaker 1: high quality companies with a decent yield and some chance 57 00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 1: for appreciation and diving an increase in the future. So 58 00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:11,760 Speaker 1: it's not bad. So I remember, was it year to 59 00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:13,560 Speaker 1: all classes? In my head? But you know, a year 60 00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 1: and a half ago, I guess dividend payers, dividend pays, 61 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:19,160 Speaker 1: dividend pairs. So everybody jumped in, you know what I mean. 62 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:21,440 Speaker 1: And and so now some people would say it's still 63 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 1: a good strategy, but maybe it's just a little more 64 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,079 Speaker 1: expensive to get in. Well, I think, you know, there 65 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:27,960 Speaker 1: are other fish to fry too. I think one of 66 00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:29,799 Speaker 1: the things that's happened for the last two years that's 67 00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:32,280 Speaker 1: so amazing to me is that neither stocks nor earnings 68 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:34,760 Speaker 1: expectations have gone anywhere in the U S. And I 69 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 1: think that's helped the big companies as well as the 70 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 1: yield play. I think earnings are starting to lift off 71 00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:40,640 Speaker 1: a little bit, and if that happens, I think you 72 00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:43,839 Speaker 1: could see more outperformance in the MidCap sector. So I'm 73 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:46,080 Speaker 1: sort of agnostic when it comes to this sort of thing. 74 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:48,720 Speaker 1: I still think for myself being an aging baby when 75 00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 1: we're you know, large caps are not a bad place 76 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 1: to be aging. You're not aging, John Manley, I'm aged. Actually, 77 00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:58,480 Speaker 1: all right, thanks thanks for setting us straight here, all right. 78 00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:03,680 Speaker 1: So in that con text, though, is there a change 79 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:07,840 Speaker 1: in the way people view their investments. And the reason 80 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 1: I ask you, I want to get to the idea 81 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 1: of liquidity because at times of crisis or chaos, liquidity 82 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:17,479 Speaker 1: is at a premium, but you don't know you you 83 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:21,200 Speaker 1: should have bought it previously, right, Yeah, it's but I 84 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 1: like liquidity. I'm not so sure at real crisis moments 85 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 1: it matters because if everybody's heading for the door, I 86 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:28,480 Speaker 1: don't know if you can make a door big enough. 87 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:31,120 Speaker 1: You've got to be outside for its work. But I 88 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:33,000 Speaker 1: think most times, one of the things that I like 89 00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 1: about stock markets in mid to large cap stocks is 90 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:38,920 Speaker 1: you can be wrong and change your mind and get out. 91 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,360 Speaker 1: And I think that's incredibly important. The idea of being 92 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 1: locked into an investment when you know it's gone bad 93 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:47,200 Speaker 1: must be a sickening feeling. Yeah, for thirty years, let's 94 00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:49,120 Speaker 1: say you lend your money to the US government for 95 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:51,480 Speaker 1: thirty years or two and a half percent, you've got 96 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,240 Speaker 1: to find someone else. If rates go higher, you've got 97 00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 1: to find someone else that will take that off your hands. Well, 98 00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:58,720 Speaker 1: you probably will find some much. It depends how much 99 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 1: you have to cut the price for them to come 100 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:01,599 Speaker 1: on board and so I think, you know, I think 101 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 1: one of the things about midcaps that we're finding sort 102 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:07,960 Speaker 1: of interesting right now is they're sort of the honors 103 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 1: class of small caps, that they have some of the 104 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:11,880 Speaker 1: inefficiency of small caps, but they also have some of 105 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 1: the liquidity of large caps. And I think that's that 106 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,120 Speaker 1: might be that that might not be a bad combination. 107 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:20,039 Speaker 1: Off earnings start to do better. So what is the 108 00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:22,960 Speaker 1: likelihood of earnings doing better? Well, they're starting to lift 109 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:25,080 Speaker 1: off a little bit. First of all, I don't believe 110 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:27,560 Speaker 1: the theory that they can't go higher. I know profitability 111 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 1: levels are very high, but that's happened without a surge 112 00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:33,040 Speaker 1: in the economy. Usually when the economy gets better, when 113 00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 1: the economy starts to be a bit more robust here 114 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,760 Speaker 1: and around the world, earnings pick up. I think that happens. 115 00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:39,640 Speaker 1: I just think we come from higher levels this time 116 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:42,279 Speaker 1: because other things that are more secular nature of boosted profits, 117 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:44,560 Speaker 1: of profitability. So I think it can happen. All right, 118 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 1: So you talk about MidCap companies, how do you define 119 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 1: MidCap these? You know, it's I I never am good 120 00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 1: with numbers, so I'll sort of dodge your question as best. 121 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:57,479 Speaker 1: I think the wrong business. I'm the intuitive type. You 122 00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:00,440 Speaker 1: know what. Sometimes they think numbers give you a false 123 00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:03,839 Speaker 1: sense of accuracy. I think they're smaller than bigger, they're 124 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:07,320 Speaker 1: bigger than small and uh, they sort of fit somewhere 125 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:09,000 Speaker 1: in the middle. So I don't have an absolute number. 126 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 1: So this is not a mid cap. This is well, 127 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:18,120 Speaker 1: if you are are not wealthy, or if you are wealthy, 128 00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:21,279 Speaker 1: what about diversification? If you if someone comes to you 129 00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:24,760 Speaker 1: with ten million dollars or five hundred thousand dollars, even 130 00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:28,479 Speaker 1: a hundred thousand dollars and not so much. Older people 131 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:30,760 Speaker 1: do this, but younger people, I mean, how how would 132 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:34,480 Speaker 1: you tell them to diversify? Would you put ten percent 133 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:38,600 Speaker 1: in emerging markets and in equities? And if so, what kind? 134 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 1: I'm just curious when you look at the money you're 135 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:43,800 Speaker 1: the portfolios you're managing, the people you're advising, how do 136 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:45,920 Speaker 1: you figure that out? Well, I mean it depends on them. 137 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:47,839 Speaker 1: They sort of have to answer the questions themselves. How 138 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:49,719 Speaker 1: much risk coolerant do they have? How much they how 139 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:51,479 Speaker 1: about if they want to make as much money as 140 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:55,720 Speaker 1: they can and not lose any Well, okay, I think 141 00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:57,680 Speaker 1: I might buy them dinner and talk about it over that. 142 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:01,120 Speaker 1: I you know, obviously those those are predict regalship. You 143 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:03,600 Speaker 1: have to take risk to make money, and I think 144 00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:06,720 Speaker 1: it's a question of balancing. I right now I would 145 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 1: be overweight equities, probably with a tilt towards MidCap and 146 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 1: outside the US, I mean, probably with a tilt towards Europe, 147 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:18,200 Speaker 1: because I think Big Europe is getting better. Uh. And 148 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:20,200 Speaker 1: I have to own some emerging markets. I do in 149 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:22,600 Speaker 1: my own account because I feel there's too much potential there. 150 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:25,040 Speaker 1: If there is such a thing as a compelling value, 151 00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:27,880 Speaker 1: I think emerging markets are compelling value. But you don't 152 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 1: get compelled right away necessarily. And John, I wonder if 153 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 1: you could comment on the notion that more and more 154 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:39,040 Speaker 1: of the stock trading that goes on, the prices that 155 00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:42,960 Speaker 1: we see are influenced by high frequency trading and by 156 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:46,240 Speaker 1: daily moves in and out. That's a very different kind 157 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 1: of world than investing your money. That certainly is, and 158 00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:53,200 Speaker 1: it's not a world that I understand very well or 159 00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 1: that I want to participate. I understand it, but I 160 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:58,000 Speaker 1: don't necessarily want to participate. And I sort of figured 161 00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:02,120 Speaker 1: that these these trading operations create opportunities for people who 162 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:04,600 Speaker 1: are investors, and it requires you have a strong stomach 163 00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:07,640 Speaker 1: and a sense that you have an idea of what's 164 00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:10,800 Speaker 1: really going on. So how do I want to describe it? 165 00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:14,880 Speaker 1: I think to a degree that the high frequency trading 166 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 1: may put a little vibration in the market from time 167 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 1: to time. I don't think at the end of the 168 00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:21,920 Speaker 1: week or the end of the month, and certainly not 169 00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:23,600 Speaker 1: at the end of the year, it's gonna make any 170 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:25,680 Speaker 1: difference to the way I want to invest my money. 171 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 1: Though uncertainty Jane Allen is uncertainty, uh to the to 172 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:33,840 Speaker 1: a maximum degree. She's uncertain enough to say, you know, 173 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 1: will maybe raise rates this year. I think we will, 174 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 1: because I think the economy will pick up. But hey, 175 00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:41,840 Speaker 1: I I can't tell you. I just see the signs 176 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 1: that it could and should, but I've seen signs that 177 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:47,800 Speaker 1: it might take longer. Well, you know, I think they 178 00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:50,680 Speaker 1: call her data dependent or the FED is data dependent. 179 00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:53,080 Speaker 1: I think that's wonderful. I'm data dependent. When I get 180 00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 1: an airplane, I know it's supposed to land at three, 181 00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:57,720 Speaker 1: but half an hour later, I'm not going to insist 182 00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:00,120 Speaker 1: on getting out over scripton. It's as simple as that. 183 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:02,200 Speaker 1: I'll do it when I think it's safe. She'll raise 184 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:04,400 Speaker 1: rates when you think she can do it without adversely 185 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:08,040 Speaker 1: affecting the economy. So all my fellow equity strategist who 186 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:09,800 Speaker 1: think they know how many times she's going to do it, 187 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,160 Speaker 1: that's kind of an interesting trick since she doesn't know 188 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:15,200 Speaker 1: it herself. Yeah, I'm gonna use that metaphor. I love that. 189 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:17,120 Speaker 1: Like sitting on a plane, if the weather is not right, 190 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:19,640 Speaker 1: you don't take off. I think that's great for the fit. Well, 191 00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:22,720 Speaker 1: I thought also that John is not getting out over Schenectady. 192 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:26,440 Speaker 1: If I've done that, well, I hope you've done it 193 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:30,520 Speaker 1: with while the plane was on the ground. In that context, though, 194 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 1: you can't wait for what the Federal Reserve is or 195 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 1: isn't going to do if you're planning for your financial 196 00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:39,160 Speaker 1: future or for the future of your business. So what 197 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:40,960 Speaker 1: do we know. I mean, we don't know how many 198 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,360 Speaker 1: times are going to raise rates. But I think to me, 199 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:45,440 Speaker 1: the real question is is the Fed going to want 200 00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:48,319 Speaker 1: to encourage your discourage economic growth from the next twelve 201 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:50,640 Speaker 1: to eighteen months. And I think that's a much easier question. 202 00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:53,079 Speaker 1: They're not going to try and discourage growth. If they 203 00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 1: try and encourage growth, and they that includes higher rates. 204 00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:59,120 Speaker 1: It only includes higher rates if they think the economy 205 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:01,320 Speaker 1: can adjust to those rights will not hurt it. So 206 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:03,080 Speaker 1: the FED, as far as I'm concerned, is still gonna 207 00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 1: be pushing money towards the economy in the next year 208 00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:08,720 Speaker 1: or so. That's at least a supportive factor for stocks, 209 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:12,079 Speaker 1: pushing money towards the economy. In other words, they will 210 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 1: not raise rates much, if at all, and they won't 211 00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:18,560 Speaker 1: sell any bonds out of that big, big portfolio bonds. 212 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:20,960 Speaker 1: I can't see that the next twelve months. I mean, 213 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 1: it's possible, but we'd have a much stronger economy between 214 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:26,920 Speaker 1: now and then I think of it. The Fed's job 215 00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:30,560 Speaker 1: is to maximize growth and and and minimize inflation, which 216 00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:32,480 Speaker 1: is sort of the conundrum you gave me earlier in 217 00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:34,319 Speaker 1: the show. How do you do that? The answer is 218 00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:36,719 Speaker 1: they try and regulate the economy, and all they can 219 00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:38,839 Speaker 1: do they can't make is buy things or not buy things, 220 00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:40,440 Speaker 1: build or not build. All they can do is make 221 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:43,600 Speaker 1: the money seem cheaper expensive. Well, I think there's also 222 00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:46,480 Speaker 1: this minimax theory that the FED and Jennet Ellensama I 223 00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:48,760 Speaker 1: think has mentioned it. You minimize the worst these days, 224 00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:51,320 Speaker 1: mistake you could make, and probably for now, the fed's 225 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:55,320 Speaker 1: worst mistake would be raising rates prematurely.

The 228 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:06,080 Speaker 1: Fed's going to be some wind at the stock market's back, 229 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:08,839 Speaker 1: and those mid caps look pretty darn good to him. 230 00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:11,959 Speaker 1: Caffeine his pim Fox taking stock on Bloberg Radio
