1 00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:14,000 Speaker 1: Bloomberg Audio Studios, podcasts, radio news. 2 00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:18,599 Speaker 2: Single best idea on a marginally calmer day than the 3 00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:22,279 Speaker 2: last three days of festivities. Yesterday afternoon, I was in 4 00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:27,120 Speaker 2: the surveillance snap and I woke up from virtually the 5 00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:29,800 Speaker 2: crisis of down thirty percent. I can't remember what the 6 00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:32,720 Speaker 2: exec number is, down thirty two percent to making it 7 00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:37,120 Speaker 2: halfway back to down seventeen percent, down eighteen percent from 8 00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:41,240 Speaker 2: the recent highs of what last two three four months. 9 00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:46,360 Speaker 2: Just an extraordinary rally yesterday after President's actions on pausing tariffs, 10 00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:48,879 Speaker 2: and we picked up the pieces this morning, a lot 11 00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:53,239 Speaker 2: of really really good conversations. Ian Lingoln was with us 12 00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:57,760 Speaker 2: with BEMO Capital Markets, Bank of Montreal. He is absolutely 13 00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:02,240 Speaker 2: definitive on full faith and credit here. Ian Lingen on the. 14 00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:06,040 Speaker 3: Moment, I actually think, if anything, the turmoil in Washington 15 00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:10,600 Speaker 3: increases the chances of a consumer led economic slowdown and 16 00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:14,600 Speaker 3: a recession is disinflationary on a forward basis. So once 17 00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:17,840 Speaker 3: we absorb all the tariff increases, I think we'll have 18 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:21,400 Speaker 3: a consumer that is in a much different, much less 19 00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:25,039 Speaker 3: compelling place than it was during the pandemic. And so 20 00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:28,959 Speaker 3: I'm worried about disinflation in two thousand and twenty six 21 00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:30,080 Speaker 3: and beyond Ian. 22 00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:32,559 Speaker 2: Lncoln looking at one part of the FED mandate there, 23 00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:35,440 Speaker 2: and it's some real confusion about what the Fed does forward. 24 00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:38,920 Speaker 2: No fault of them in this time of policy chaos, 25 00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:42,760 Speaker 2: I guess is how to collegiately put it. I'll be 26 00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:45,759 Speaker 2: over at see an end today's scheduled at least this afternoon. 27 00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:50,560 Speaker 2: And you know, as Ian Lingen talks about inflation, I 28 00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 2: think for the non Bloomberg, the non single best idea 29 00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:58,400 Speaker 2: surveillance world, the job economy is really front and center 30 00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:01,880 Speaker 2: into the rest of two thousand, two twenty five. Anamong 31 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 2: today stunned me. She's already modeling five point three percent 32 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 2: unemployment out there somewhere in the next year. And I don't 33 00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 2: want to be too inflammatory on this, but I can't 34 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 2: begin to find words for the reach from four point 35 00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:22,239 Speaker 2: x percent four point one four point two percent out 36 00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:25,840 Speaker 2: to maybe a modeled four point eight percent consensus, and 37 00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:28,839 Speaker 2: then to go beyond that to a five point three 38 00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:33,639 Speaker 2: percent unemployment rate. I'm not sure Washington, of any party 39 00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:39,560 Speaker 2: persuasion is ready for that. Anaalong of Bloomberg economics. 40 00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:42,400 Speaker 4: What the Trump pivot did yesterday is to shift the 41 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:47,240 Speaker 4: composition of the tariff onto consumer goods. And as you know, 42 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:50,120 Speaker 4: Paul I was in the camp in the previous and 43 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 4: the previous couple months that I think that ultimately the 44 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:58,240 Speaker 4: firms will be eating these tariffs through margin compression, which 45 00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:03,720 Speaker 4: disproportionately will hit the stock market at EPs for firms. However, 46 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 4: I think that yesterday pivot is actually bad for CPI 47 00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:13,400 Speaker 4: because it now means because China exports more consumer goods 48 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:16,600 Speaker 4: to US than other countries, so by reducing terraff rights 49 00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:20,920 Speaker 4: of other countries which still remain rather elevated, while boosting 50 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 4: Chinese tariffs from one hundred and twenty five percent from 51 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 4: the previous eighty four percent. So even though today the 52 00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:31,200 Speaker 4: report shows no signal will pass through from Chinese tariffs, 53 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:33,640 Speaker 4: I think maybe that could change in the next couple 54 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,840 Speaker 4: of months. But the negative side of today's report is 55 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:40,520 Speaker 4: that Trump may be emboldened by today's report saying that 56 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:44,160 Speaker 4: while tariffs are not inflationary, look at this and he 57 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 4: would press ahead with reciprocal tariffs, lights out. 58 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 2: No other way to put it. An along running Bloomberg 59 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 2: US Economics just profoundly important work in twenty twenty four, 60 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,720 Speaker 2: and of course that continues into this year.
