0:01:07.880 --> 0:01:11.760
<v Speaker 1>out to our own, Catherine Cowdery. The Obama administration is

0:01:11.800 --> 0:01:14.759
<v Speaker 1>opening US guys to more commercial drones with a long

0:01:14.800 --> 0:01:18.320
<v Speaker 1>awaited regulations. The new rules are designed to allow routine

0:01:18.400 --> 0:01:21.640
<v Speaker 1>use of small drones by real estate agents, farmers, filmmakers,

0:01:21.840 --> 0:01:25.600
<v Speaker 1>and countless other commercial operators. One of the thematic ets

0:01:25.640 --> 0:01:28.640
<v Speaker 1>has launched this year focuses on drones. Andrew chain In,

0:01:28.720 --> 0:01:31.520
<v Speaker 1>chief executive of Pure Funds, on why his firm launched

0:01:31.720 --> 0:01:34.200
<v Speaker 1>the I fly e t F. Drones is something that's

0:01:34.720 --> 0:01:37.520
<v Speaker 1>They've been around, but now their uses are expanding rapidly

0:01:37.600 --> 0:01:40.240
<v Speaker 1>due to technology and realization that they can be used

0:01:40.240 --> 0:01:44.840
<v Speaker 1>for agriculture, to fight diseases, UH, for medical um UH

0:01:44.920 --> 0:01:47.520
<v Speaker 1>for for dropping on medical supplies and remote areas. These

0:01:47.520 --> 0:01:50.280
<v Speaker 1>are things that the uses as technology increases, will be

0:01:50.400 --> 0:01:53.240
<v Speaker 1>much more prevalent in our society. The Pure Funds Drone

0:01:53.240 --> 0:01:56.280

0:01:56.280 --> 0:01:59.720

0:02:28.080 --> 0:02:30.960
<v Speaker 1>to do with your money? John Manley is the chief

0:02:31.040 --> 0:02:34.960
<v Speaker 1>equity strategist at Wells Fargo Funds Management, helping to manage

0:02:34.960 --> 0:02:38.560
<v Speaker 1>two hundred and forty five billion dollars, and he joins

0:02:38.639 --> 0:02:40.880
<v Speaker 1>us here in the studio. John, thank you very much

0:02:40.919 --> 0:02:42.880
<v Speaker 1>for coming in. Thank you for having me. All right,

0:02:43.000 --> 0:02:47.200
<v Speaker 1>equity strategist. You're getting a lot of calls from people saying,

0:02:47.360 --> 0:02:49.880
<v Speaker 1>I can't live on my bond income. Can you help

0:02:49.919 --> 0:02:52.600
<v Speaker 1>me out with some equities? Yeah? Absolutely, It's been going

0:02:52.639 --> 0:02:54.200
<v Speaker 1>on for a while. And what else are you gonna do?

0:02:54.280 --> 0:02:57.000
<v Speaker 1>I think it's it's the worst form of investment except

0:02:57.000 --> 0:02:58.920
<v Speaker 1>for all the others. When it comes to yield, and

0:02:58.960 --> 0:03:02.320
<v Speaker 1>I think you can they'll buy pretty good, actually pretty

0:03:02.400 --> 0:03:05.400
<v Speaker 1>high quality companies with a decent yield and some chance

0:03:05.480 --> 0:03:07.720
<v Speaker 1>for appreciation and diving an increase in the future. So

0:03:07.760 --> 0:03:11.760
<v Speaker 1>it's not bad. So I remember, was it year to

0:03:11.960 --> 0:03:13.560
<v Speaker 1>all classes? In my head? But you know, a year

0:03:13.600 --> 0:03:15.880
<v Speaker 1>and a half ago, I guess dividend payers, dividend pays,

0:03:15.919 --> 0:03:19.160
<v Speaker 1>dividend pairs. So everybody jumped in, you know what I mean.

0:03:19.280 --> 0:03:21.440
<v Speaker 1>And and so now some people would say it's still

0:03:21.440 --> 0:03:23.600
<v Speaker 1>a good strategy, but maybe it's just a little more

0:03:23.680 --> 0:03:26.079
<v Speaker 1>expensive to get in. Well, I think, you know, there

0:03:26.080 --> 0:03:27.960
<v Speaker 1>are other fish to fry too. I think one of

0:03:27.960 --> 0:03:29.799
<v Speaker 1>the things that's happened for the last two years that's

0:03:29.800 --> 0:03:32.280
<v Speaker 1>so amazing to me is that neither stocks nor earnings

0:03:32.280 --> 0:03:34.760
<v Speaker 1>expectations have gone anywhere in the U S. And I

0:03:34.800 --> 0:03:36.520
<v Speaker 1>think that's helped the big companies as well as the

0:03:36.600 --> 0:03:39.160
<v Speaker 1>yield play. I think earnings are starting to lift off

0:03:39.200 --> 0:03:40.640
<v Speaker 1>a little bit, and if that happens, I think you

0:03:40.640 --> 0:03:43.839
<v Speaker 1>could see more outperformance in the MidCap sector. So I'm

0:03:43.960 --> 0:03:46.080
<v Speaker 1>sort of agnostic when it comes to this sort of thing.

0:03:46.440 --> 0:03:48.720
<v Speaker 1>I still think for myself being an aging baby when

0:03:48.760 --> 0:03:50.560
<v Speaker 1>we're you know, large caps are not a bad place

0:03:50.560 --> 0:03:54.800
<v Speaker 1>to be aging. You're not aging, John Manley, I'm aged. Actually,

0:03:56.120 --> 0:03:58.480
<v Speaker 1>all right, thanks thanks for setting us straight here, all right.

0:03:58.560 --> 0:04:03.680
<v Speaker 1>So in that con text, though, is there a change

0:04:03.960 --> 0:04:07.840
<v Speaker 1>in the way people view their investments. And the reason

0:04:07.880 --> 0:04:09.240
<v Speaker 1>I ask you, I want to get to the idea

0:04:09.280 --> 0:04:14.880
<v Speaker 1>of liquidity because at times of crisis or chaos, liquidity

0:04:14.920 --> 0:04:17.479
<v Speaker 1>is at a premium, but you don't know you you

0:04:17.480 --> 0:04:21.200
<v Speaker 1>should have bought it previously, right, Yeah, it's but I

0:04:21.279 --> 0:04:24.880
<v Speaker 1>like liquidity. I'm not so sure at real crisis moments

0:04:24.880 --> 0:04:27.000
<v Speaker 1>it matters because if everybody's heading for the door, I

0:04:27.040 --> 0:04:28.480
<v Speaker 1>don't know if you can make a door big enough.

0:04:28.680 --> 0:04:31.120
<v Speaker 1>You've got to be outside for its work. But I

0:04:31.160 --> 0:04:33.000
<v Speaker 1>think most times, one of the things that I like

0:04:33.080 --> 0:04:36.680
<v Speaker 1>about stock markets in mid to large cap stocks is

0:04:36.960 --> 0:04:38.920
<v Speaker 1>you can be wrong and change your mind and get out.

0:04:39.000 --> 0:04:41.360
<v Speaker 1>And I think that's incredibly important. The idea of being

0:04:41.400 --> 0:04:44.320
<v Speaker 1>locked into an investment when you know it's gone bad

0:04:44.400 --> 0:04:47.200
<v Speaker 1>must be a sickening feeling. Yeah, for thirty years, let's

0:04:47.200 --> 0:04:49.120
<v Speaker 1>say you lend your money to the US government for

0:04:49.120 --> 0:04:51.480
<v Speaker 1>thirty years or two and a half percent, you've got

0:04:51.480 --> 0:04:54.240
<v Speaker 1>to find someone else. If rates go higher, you've got

0:04:54.240 --> 0:04:56.680
<v Speaker 1>to find someone else that will take that off your hands. Well,

0:04:56.680 --> 0:04:58.720
<v Speaker 1>you probably will find some much. It depends how much

0:04:58.720 --> 0:05:00.000
<v Speaker 1>you have to cut the price for them to come

0:05:00.040 --> 0:05:01.599
<v Speaker 1>on board and so I think, you know, I think

0:05:03.040 --> 0:05:05.000
<v Speaker 1>one of the things about midcaps that we're finding sort

0:05:05.040 --> 0:05:07.960
<v Speaker 1>of interesting right now is they're sort of the honors

0:05:07.960 --> 0:05:09.760
<v Speaker 1>class of small caps, that they have some of the

0:05:09.760 --> 0:05:11.880
<v Speaker 1>inefficiency of small caps, but they also have some of

0:05:11.880 --> 0:05:14.200
<v Speaker 1>the liquidity of large caps. And I think that's that

0:05:14.279 --> 0:05:17.120
<v Speaker 1>might be that that might not be a bad combination.

0:05:17.160 --> 0:05:20.039
<v Speaker 1>Off earnings start to do better. So what is the

0:05:20.080 --> 0:05:22.960
<v Speaker 1>likelihood of earnings doing better? Well, they're starting to lift

0:05:23.000 --> 0:05:25.080
<v Speaker 1>off a little bit. First of all, I don't believe

0:05:25.120 --> 0:05:27.560
<v Speaker 1>the theory that they can't go higher. I know profitability

0:05:27.680 --> 0:05:29.880
<v Speaker 1>levels are very high, but that's happened without a surge

0:05:29.880 --> 0:05:33.040
<v Speaker 1>in the economy. Usually when the economy gets better, when

0:05:33.080 --> 0:05:35.120
<v Speaker 1>the economy starts to be a bit more robust here

0:05:35.120 --> 0:05:37.760
<v Speaker 1>and around the world, earnings pick up. I think that happens.

0:05:37.760 --> 0:05:39.640
<v Speaker 1>I just think we come from higher levels this time

0:05:39.640 --> 0:05:42.279
<v Speaker 1>because other things that are more secular nature of boosted profits,

0:05:42.320 --> 0:05:44.560
<v Speaker 1>of profitability. So I think it can happen. All right,

0:05:44.600 --> 0:05:47.080
<v Speaker 1>So you talk about MidCap companies, how do you define

0:05:47.120 --> 0:05:50.520
<v Speaker 1>MidCap these? You know, it's I I never am good

0:05:50.520 --> 0:05:52.760
<v Speaker 1>with numbers, so I'll sort of dodge your question as best.

0:05:52.800 --> 0:05:57.479
<v Speaker 1>I think the wrong business. I'm the intuitive type. You

0:05:57.520 --> 0:06:00.440
<v Speaker 1>know what. Sometimes they think numbers give you a false

0:06:00.440 --> 0:06:03.839
<v Speaker 1>sense of accuracy. I think they're smaller than bigger, they're

0:06:03.839 --> 0:06:07.320
<v Speaker 1>bigger than small and uh, they sort of fit somewhere

0:06:07.320 --> 0:06:09.000
<v Speaker 1>in the middle. So I don't have an absolute number.

0:06:09.040 --> 0:06:11.880
<v Speaker 1>So this is not a mid cap. This is well,

0:06:12.200 --> 0:06:18.120
<v Speaker 1>if you are are not wealthy, or if you are wealthy,

0:06:18.440 --> 0:06:21.279
<v Speaker 1>what about diversification? If you if someone comes to you

0:06:21.400 --> 0:06:24.760
<v Speaker 1>with ten million dollars or five hundred thousand dollars, even

0:06:24.760 --> 0:06:28.479
<v Speaker 1>a hundred thousand dollars and not so much. Older people

0:06:28.480 --> 0:06:30.760
<v Speaker 1>do this, but younger people, I mean, how how would

0:06:30.760 --> 0:06:34.480
<v Speaker 1>you tell them to diversify? Would you put ten percent

0:06:34.560 --> 0:06:38.600
<v Speaker 1>in emerging markets and in equities? And if so, what kind?

0:06:38.600 --> 0:06:40.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm just curious when you look at the money you're

0:06:41.160 --> 0:06:43.800
<v Speaker 1>the portfolios you're managing, the people you're advising, how do

0:06:43.800 --> 0:06:45.920
<v Speaker 1>you figure that out? Well, I mean it depends on them.

0:06:45.920 --> 0:06:47.839
<v Speaker 1>They sort of have to answer the questions themselves. How

0:06:47.880 --> 0:06:49.719
<v Speaker 1>much risk coolerant do they have? How much they how

0:06:49.720 --> 0:06:51.479
<v Speaker 1>about if they want to make as much money as

0:06:51.520 --> 0:06:55.720
<v Speaker 1>they can and not lose any Well, okay, I think

0:06:55.720 --> 0:06:57.680
<v Speaker 1>I might buy them dinner and talk about it over that.

0:06:58.120 --> 0:07:01.120
<v Speaker 1>I you know, obviously those those are predict regalship. You

0:07:01.120 --> 0:07:03.600
<v Speaker 1>have to take risk to make money, and I think

0:07:03.600 --> 0:07:06.720
<v Speaker 1>it's a question of balancing. I right now I would

0:07:06.760 --> 0:07:10.640
<v Speaker 1>be overweight equities, probably with a tilt towards MidCap and

0:07:11.440 --> 0:07:14.200
<v Speaker 1>outside the US, I mean, probably with a tilt towards Europe,

0:07:14.240 --> 0:07:18.200
<v Speaker 1>because I think Big Europe is getting better. Uh. And

0:07:18.280 --> 0:07:20.200
<v Speaker 1>I have to own some emerging markets. I do in

0:07:20.240 --> 0:07:22.600
<v Speaker 1>my own account because I feel there's too much potential there.

0:07:22.800 --> 0:07:25.040
<v Speaker 1>If there is such a thing as a compelling value,

0:07:25.120 --> 0:07:27.880
<v Speaker 1>I think emerging markets are compelling value. But you don't

0:07:27.920 --> 0:07:31.120
<v Speaker 1>get compelled right away necessarily. And John, I wonder if

0:07:31.160 --> 0:07:36.280
<v Speaker 1>you could comment on the notion that more and more

0:07:36.320 --> 0:07:39.040
<v Speaker 1>of the stock trading that goes on, the prices that

0:07:39.080 --> 0:07:42.960
<v Speaker 1>we see are influenced by high frequency trading and by

0:07:43.080 --> 0:07:46.240
<v Speaker 1>daily moves in and out. That's a very different kind

0:07:46.320 --> 0:07:50.120
<v Speaker 1>of world than investing your money. That certainly is, and

0:07:50.200 --> 0:07:53.200
<v Speaker 1>it's not a world that I understand very well or

0:07:53.200 --> 0:07:55.040
<v Speaker 1>that I want to participate. I understand it, but I

0:07:55.040 --> 0:07:58.000
<v Speaker 1>don't necessarily want to participate. And I sort of figured

0:07:58.040 --> 0:08:02.120
<v Speaker 1>that these these trading operations create opportunities for people who

0:08:02.160 --> 0:08:04.600
<v Speaker 1>are investors, and it requires you have a strong stomach

0:08:04.760 --> 0:08:07.640
<v Speaker 1>and a sense that you have an idea of what's

0:08:07.640 --> 0:08:10.800
<v Speaker 1>really going on. So how do I want to describe it?

0:08:10.840 --> 0:08:14.880
<v Speaker 1>I think to a degree that the high frequency trading

0:08:15.480 --> 0:08:18.120
<v Speaker 1>may put a little vibration in the market from time

0:08:18.120 --> 0:08:20.280
<v Speaker 1>to time. I don't think at the end of the

0:08:20.320 --> 0:08:21.920
<v Speaker 1>week or the end of the month, and certainly not

0:08:21.960 --> 0:08:23.600
<v Speaker 1>at the end of the year, it's gonna make any

0:08:23.600 --> 0:08:25.680
<v Speaker 1>difference to the way I want to invest my money.

0:08:25.680 --> 0:08:30.760
<v Speaker 1>Though uncertainty Jane Allen is uncertainty, uh to the to

0:08:30.880 --> 0:08:33.840
<v Speaker 1>a maximum degree. She's uncertain enough to say, you know,

0:08:35.040 --> 0:08:38.040
<v Speaker 1>will maybe raise rates this year. I think we will,

0:08:38.080 --> 0:08:40.040
<v Speaker 1>because I think the economy will pick up. But hey,

0:08:40.120 --> 0:08:41.840
<v Speaker 1>I I can't tell you. I just see the signs

0:08:41.840 --> 0:08:43.760
<v Speaker 1>that it could and should, but I've seen signs that

0:08:44.080 --> 0:08:47.800
<v Speaker 1>it might take longer. Well, you know, I think they

0:08:47.920 --> 0:08:50.680
<v Speaker 1>call her data dependent or the FED is data dependent.

0:08:50.920 --> 0:08:53.080
<v Speaker 1>I think that's wonderful. I'm data dependent. When I get

0:08:53.120 --> 0:08:55.280
<v Speaker 1>an airplane, I know it's supposed to land at three,

0:08:55.880 --> 0:08:57.720
<v Speaker 1>but half an hour later, I'm not going to insist

0:08:57.720 --> 0:09:00.120
<v Speaker 1>on getting out over scripton. It's as simple as that.

0:09:00.280 --> 0:09:02.200
<v Speaker 1>I'll do it when I think it's safe. She'll raise

0:09:02.280 --> 0:09:04.400
<v Speaker 1>rates when you think she can do it without adversely

0:09:04.440 --> 0:09:08.040
<v Speaker 1>affecting the economy. So all my fellow equity strategist who

0:09:08.080 --> 0:09:09.800
<v Speaker 1>think they know how many times she's going to do it,

0:09:10.200 --> 0:09:12.160
<v Speaker 1>that's kind of an interesting trick since she doesn't know

0:09:12.240 --> 0:09:15.200
<v Speaker 1>it herself. Yeah, I'm gonna use that metaphor. I love that.

0:09:15.280 --> 0:09:17.120
<v Speaker 1>Like sitting on a plane, if the weather is not right,

0:09:17.160 --> 0:09:19.640
<v Speaker 1>you don't take off. I think that's great for the fit. Well,

0:09:19.679 --> 0:09:22.720
<v Speaker 1>I thought also that John is not getting out over Schenectady.

0:09:23.440 --> 0:09:26.440
<v Speaker 1>If I've done that, well, I hope you've done it

0:09:26.520 --> 0:09:30.520
<v Speaker 1>with while the plane was on the ground. In that context, though,

0:09:30.800 --> 0:09:32.920
<v Speaker 1>you can't wait for what the Federal Reserve is or

0:09:33.000 --> 0:09:36.040
<v Speaker 1>isn't going to do if you're planning for your financial

0:09:36.080 --> 0:09:39.160
<v Speaker 1>future or for the future of your business. So what

0:09:39.240 --> 0:09:40.960
<v Speaker 1>do we know. I mean, we don't know how many

0:09:41.000 --> 0:09:43.360
<v Speaker 1>times are going to raise rates. But I think to me,

0:09:43.480 --> 0:09:45.440
<v Speaker 1>the real question is is the Fed going to want

0:09:45.440 --> 0:09:48.319
<v Speaker 1>to encourage your discourage economic growth from the next twelve

0:09:48.360 --> 0:09:50.640
<v Speaker 1>to eighteen months. And I think that's a much easier question.

0:09:50.679 --> 0:09:53.079
<v Speaker 1>They're not going to try and discourage growth. If they

0:09:53.080 --> 0:09:56.480
<v Speaker 1>try and encourage growth, and they that includes higher rates.

0:09:56.520 --> 0:09:59.120
<v Speaker 1>It only includes higher rates if they think the economy

0:09:59.120 --> 0:10:01.320
<v Speaker 1>can adjust to those rights will not hurt it. So

0:10:01.400 --> 0:10:03.080
<v Speaker 1>the FED, as far as I'm concerned, is still gonna

0:10:03.080 --> 0:10:05.520
<v Speaker 1>be pushing money towards the economy in the next year

0:10:05.600 --> 0:10:08.720
<v Speaker 1>or so. That's at least a supportive factor for stocks,

0:10:09.360 --> 0:10:12.079
<v Speaker 1>pushing money towards the economy. In other words, they will

0:10:12.200 --> 0:10:14.720
<v Speaker 1>not raise rates much, if at all, and they won't

0:10:14.920 --> 0:10:18.560
<v Speaker 1>sell any bonds out of that big, big portfolio bonds.

0:10:19.200 --> 0:10:20.960
<v Speaker 1>I can't see that the next twelve months. I mean,

0:10:21.000 --> 0:10:24.280
<v Speaker 1>it's possible, but we'd have a much stronger economy between

0:10:24.320 --> 0:10:26.920
<v Speaker 1>now and then I think of it. The Fed's job

0:10:27.000 --> 0:10:30.560
<v Speaker 1>is to maximize growth and and and minimize inflation, which

0:10:30.559 --> 0:10:32.480
<v Speaker 1>is sort of the conundrum you gave me earlier in

0:10:32.480 --> 0:10:34.319
<v Speaker 1>the show. How do you do that? The answer is

0:10:34.360 --> 0:10:36.719
<v Speaker 1>they try and regulate the economy, and all they can

0:10:36.720 --> 0:10:38.839
<v Speaker 1>do they can't make is buy things or not buy things,

0:10:38.920 --> 0:10:40.440
<v Speaker 1>build or not build. All they can do is make

0:10:40.440 --> 0:10:43.600
<v Speaker 1>the money seem cheaper expensive. Well, I think there's also

0:10:43.640 --> 0:10:46.480
<v Speaker 1>this minimax theory that the FED and Jennet Ellensama I

0:10:46.480 --> 0:10:48.760
<v Speaker 1>think has mentioned it. You minimize the worst these days,

0:10:49.080 --> 0:10:51.320
<v Speaker 1>mistake you could make, and probably for now, the fed's

0:10:51.320 --> 0:10:55.320
<v Speaker 1>worst mistake would be raising rates prematurely. John Manley taken

<v Speaker 1>off today here at Bloomberg Radio, chief equity strategist Wells

0:10:59.520 --> 0:11:03.599
<v Speaker 1>Fargo Funds Management. He thinks earnings could pick up. The

0:11:03.679 --> 0:11:06.080
<v Speaker 1>Fed's going to be some wind at the stock market's back,

0:11:06.120 --> 0:11:08.839
