1 00:00:02,480 --> 00:00:07,520 Speaker 1: Bloomberg Audio Studios, Podcasts, Radio News. 2 00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:11,559 Speaker 2: Good morning. 3 00:00:11,600 --> 00:00:14,400 Speaker 1: I'm Nathan Hager and I'm Karen Moscow. Here are the 4 00:00:14,440 --> 00:00:15,920 Speaker 1: stories we're following today. 5 00:00:16,200 --> 00:00:18,600 Speaker 2: Karen, we begin with the report Wall Street's been waiting 6 00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:21,360 Speaker 2: for all week. This morning, we get the latest read 7 00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:26,000 Speaker 2: on inflation with the March report on consumer prices. Economists 8 00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:29,040 Speaker 2: are forecasting a rise of three tenths of one percent. 9 00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:31,880 Speaker 2: Let's get a preview from Bloomberg's Michael McKee. 10 00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:35,880 Speaker 3: For investors and central bankers, it's the same story. Will 11 00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:39,280 Speaker 3: inflation keep falling enough to keep the Fed on track 12 00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:42,839 Speaker 3: to lower interest rates this year? Yes, economists say, at 13 00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:46,320 Speaker 3: least on a month to month basis, food prices, car prices, 14 00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:49,239 Speaker 3: even home prices have come down a little bit. But 15 00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:53,400 Speaker 3: energy costs rose during March, particularly for gasoline, and that 16 00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:57,320 Speaker 3: means headline CPI is expected to rise year over year. 17 00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:01,720 Speaker 3: While the Fed follows the PCE Inflation Index. Most consumers 18 00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:05,680 Speaker 3: watch CPI, so a mixed report won't be very good news, 19 00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:10,080 Speaker 3: even if incremental progress is made. Michael McKee, Bloomberg Radio. 20 00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:12,760 Speaker 1: All right, Mike, thanks wella headed the report. We are 21 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:16,959 Speaker 1: getting more Fed speak Atlanta Fed President Raphael Bostik reiterated 22 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:20,760 Speaker 1: his expectation for one interest rate cut this year, but 23 00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:23,320 Speaker 1: added he is open to changing his view to later 24 00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:27,319 Speaker 1: or additional rate reduction should the economic picture change. Meanwhile, 25 00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:31,960 Speaker 1: Bloomberg opinion columnist Muhammadalarian expects the Central Bank's overall trajectory 26 00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:33,320 Speaker 1: to remain unchanged. 27 00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 4: I think Chef Poald has made it very clear that 28 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:39,080 Speaker 4: he's willing to look through these bumps. They will need 29 00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:43,280 Speaker 4: overwhelming evidence that it is more than a bump in 30 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:46,480 Speaker 4: order for them to ch interviews. Inflation will be sticky. 31 00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 4: Inflation will be absolutely sticky. We're going to get stuck 32 00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:51,400 Speaker 4: at a round two and a half to three percent, 33 00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:55,200 Speaker 4: and I do think that that actually warrants over the 34 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 4: long term. The Fed rethinking is inflation targeting, and. 35 00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:01,880 Speaker 1: Muhammad Larian says expecs two rate cuts this year. 36 00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:05,280 Speaker 2: Well, forget rate cuts, Karen. Corporate earnings may fuel the 37 00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:08,560 Speaker 2: next leg of this record breaking stock market rally. Let's 38 00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:11,040 Speaker 2: get the details on that from Bloomberggs John Tucker. 39 00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:13,800 Speaker 5: John Nathan Earnings season kicks off Friday, and ahead of that, 40 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:17,680 Speaker 5: Wall Street strategists have boosted their year end forecasts for 41 00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:20,720 Speaker 5: the S and F five hundred. Deutsche Bank's strategists say 42 00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 5: earnings are expected to post a healthy ten percent gain 43 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:26,280 Speaker 5: in the first quarter in the headline numbers from a 44 00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:29,960 Speaker 5: year ago. According to City Group, earnings upgrades of outnumbered 45 00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:33,400 Speaker 5: downgrades of the first quarter. The rising profit forecasts have 46 00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:37,640 Speaker 5: eased concerns that the rally is a bubble. Additionally, forecasts 47 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 5: for tech earnings they remain strong, with analysts expecting the 48 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:43,680 Speaker 5: sector to report that profits stored twenty percent of the 49 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 5: first quarter, and at the same time they outlook for 50 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:50,600 Speaker 5: the more economically sensitive sectors. That's brightening, suggesting a broader, 51 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:53,360 Speaker 5: healthier rally. I'm John Tucker, Bloomberg Radio. 52 00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:56,800 Speaker 1: All right, John, thanks well. One company not participating in 53 00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,520 Speaker 1: this rally has been Boeing. This stock is down more 54 00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 1: than three percent so far this year. The FAA is 55 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 1: investigating whistleblower complaints that Boeing took shortcuts to ease production 56 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 1: bottlenecks on the seven eighty seven Dreamliner. The company says 57 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:13,360 Speaker 1: that claims are inaccurate and do not represent the work 58 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:15,679 Speaker 1: it has done to ensure the safety of the plane. 59 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:18,720 Speaker 1: Bloomberg's brook Sutherlands says the complaints add to the many 60 00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:20,919 Speaker 1: challenges facing the embattled plane maker. 61 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 6: The FAA has capped Bowing's production rate at about thirty 62 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 6: eight seven thirty seven jets per month. Now they are 63 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 6: nowhere near that pace right now. They're taking a step 64 00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 6: back and really trying to drill into safety and their 65 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 6: engineering processes. Now that is a good thing in the 66 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 6: long run, but certainly not going to show up and 67 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 6: their delivery numbers right here in the short term. 68 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 1: Bloomberg's brook Sutherlands says the claims intensify the scrutiny of 69 00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 1: Boeing's manufacturing practices that have been building since one of 70 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 1: their planes experienced a mid air accident at the start 71 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 1: of the year. 72 00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:54,160 Speaker 2: In other news, this morning, Karen Arizona will join fourteen 73 00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 2: other states that have banned abortion at all stages of pregnancy. 74 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 2: Bloomberg's at Baxter the details. 75 00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 7: Arizona Supreme Court has ruled in favor of enforcing a 76 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:08,840 Speaker 7: Civil War era abortion ban. It says doctors can be 77 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:13,000 Speaker 7: prosecuted for performing an abortion except to save a mother's life. 78 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 7: Both Arizona's Attorney General and the governors say they will 79 00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 7: not enforce the law. Governor Katie Hobbs. 80 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 8: Here, we continue to live under an unacceptable ban, a 81 00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:26,680 Speaker 8: law that still strips Arizonas of their personal autonomy and 82 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:30,279 Speaker 8: has no exceptions for women who are the victims of rape, insists, 83 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,200 Speaker 8: or any regard for pregnancy complications. 84 00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:36,320 Speaker 7: Politically, this will test Donald Trump's gamble to leave decisions 85 00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:40,839 Speaker 7: to the states. Arizona is a swing state. Aed Baxter Bloomberg. 86 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:42,800 Speaker 1: Radio, all right, ed, thanks well. Turning to the war 87 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 1: in Gaza, President Biden has more tough words for Israeli 88 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:50,279 Speaker 1: Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu after the attack that killed seven 89 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:51,040 Speaker 1: AID workers. 90 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:54,320 Speaker 9: I think when he's doing his mistake, I don't agree 91 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:58,720 Speaker 9: with his book. I think it's outrageous that those four 92 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 9: three vehicles Biden drones and taken out on a highway 93 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 9: where it wasn't like it was along the shore, it 94 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,040 Speaker 9: wasn't like there was a convoy moving he, etc. 95 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 1: The President spoke in an interview that aired last night 96 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 1: on Univision. The conversation was taped last week, two days 97 00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:18,960 Speaker 1: after the strike that killed the world of Central kitchen workers. 98 00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:22,719 Speaker 1: President Biden also discressed immigration. He was asked whether he 99 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 1: has the authority to shut down the US Mexico border 100 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 1: on his own well. 101 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 9: It suggested that we're examining whether or not I have 102 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:32,440 Speaker 9: that power. I would have that power under the legislation 103 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:37,360 Speaker 9: when the border has over five hundred thousand people fit 104 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:40,040 Speaker 9: five thousand people a day trying to cross the border 105 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:41,800 Speaker 9: because you can't manage to slow it up. 106 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:45,279 Speaker 1: And the legislation that President Biden is talking about collapsed 107 00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:48,600 Speaker 1: in the Senate after former President Donald Trump pressured Republicans 108 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,440 Speaker 1: to kill it. The President says he's not giving up 109 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:52,240 Speaker 1: on that bill. 110 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 2: I mean, well, Karen. President Biden and the Prime Minister 111 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:58,839 Speaker 2: of Japan are teaming up on an artificial intelligence program. 112 00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 2: We get the deals that deetis tails on that from 113 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 2: Bloomberg Steve Potisk in Washington. 114 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:06,479 Speaker 10: The two nations are looking to improve collaboration around the 115 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 10: quickly emerging technology.

Good morning. I'm Nathan Hager. 244 00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:49,200 Speaker 2: We are just hours away from the latest street on 245 00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:52,720 Speaker 2: inflation in the US, the Consumer Price Index for March, 246 00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:58,200 Speaker 2: and we get more now from Bloomberg's Kredi Gupta so critty. 247 00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:01,720 Speaker 2: Since the start of the year, the road to disinflation's 248 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:04,679 Speaker 2: been choppy. Are we thinking that that's what we're going 249 00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:05,319 Speaker 2: to see today? 250 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:08,880 Speaker 14: This is the make or break moment of whether or 251 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:10,800 Speaker 14: not this is kind of a one off or a 252 00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 14: two off in terms of hot CPI reports, to whether 253 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:17,079 Speaker 14: or not this was just kind of a momentary uptick. Nathan, 254 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:19,000 Speaker 14: I don't need to remind you of all people the 255 00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:22,320 Speaker 14: transitory conversation, and it kind of has felt like the 256 00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:24,480 Speaker 14: Federal Reserve and members of the FMC have kind of 257 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:28,000 Speaker 14: brushed off this uptick in the data as seasonal or 258 00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 14: as in kind of a one off for for lack 259 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:33,640 Speaker 14: of a better term, whereas the markets have said, well, actually, 260 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:36,120 Speaker 14: maybe this is indicative of some sort of persistent piece 261 00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 14: of inflation. That story of the last mile of inflation 262 00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:41,760 Speaker 14: may be the most challenging. You've heard that narrative from 263 00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 14: around the world, and I think the best way to 264 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:45,199 Speaker 14: look at it, Nathan, is what you're seeing in the 265 00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:47,520 Speaker 14: bond market right now. Take a look at yields. Four 266 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:51,680 Speaker 14: thirty nine is where we're at. We weren't expecting yields 267 00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:54,200 Speaker 14: to stay this high. We had, in the words of 268 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:57,080 Speaker 14: Bob michael Over at JP Morgan Asset Management six months ago, 269 00:13:57,120 --> 00:14:00,280 Speaker 14: he said, there would be insatiable demand for bonds, this 270 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:02,960 Speaker 14: kind of bull market for bonds that we haven't really 271 00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:05,720 Speaker 14: seen in a while, given the inflationary standpoint that we've had, 272 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 14: and we've actually haven't seen that fully manifest yet. Now 273 00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:11,640 Speaker 14: more concerns about whether or not we hit say five 274 00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:14,120 Speaker 14: percent on yields, for example, before we hit even three 275 00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:16,440 Speaker 14: and a half, and that is really, at its core 276 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:19,960 Speaker 14: a concern that again, maybe it's not a story of 277 00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:23,040 Speaker 14: services inflation anymore. Maybe we start to see more upticks 278 00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:26,920 Speaker 14: or some sort of resurgence in goods driven inflation. Think commodities, 279 00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:29,720 Speaker 14: oil prices, Does food get a little bit more expensive, 280 00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:32,880 Speaker 14: Does housing, for example, eat up a bigger chunk of 281 00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:36,880 Speaker 14: the inflationary story. This is potentially Chair Powell's worst nightmare. 282 00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:39,680 Speaker 2: And when you think about the pressures that we're seeing 283 00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:43,680 Speaker 2: in commodities, in food and energy, it makes you think 284 00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:47,400 Speaker 2: about what kind of bleed through that has into that 285 00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:51,400 Speaker 2: core inflation that the Federal Reserve does have some control 286 00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:54,040 Speaker 2: over in terms of monetary policy, whether that could make 287 00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:57,640 Speaker 2: the job for the Fed to get these price pressures 288 00:14:57,720 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 2: under control even more difficult. 289 00:14:59,480 --> 00:14:59,800 Speaker 1: It could. 290 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:02,000 Speaker 14: And look, I think this is where of the nitty 291 00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:04,760 Speaker 14: gritty and the real nerdiness of the CPI report comes out. 292 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:07,600 Speaker 14: I think Anna Wongar, chief economist over at Bloomer Economics, 293 00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:09,320 Speaker 14: does a really great job of explaining it in terms 294 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:12,280 Speaker 14: of saying you have to pay attention now perhaps less 295 00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:14,160 Speaker 14: to the labor market, which by the ways, is something 296 00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:17,640 Speaker 14: that Raphael Bostic over at the Atlantic Fed said as well, 297 00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:20,520 Speaker 14: and pay more attention to the housing story. Pay attention 298 00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:23,040 Speaker 14: to things like airfares, for example, because we're talking about 299 00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:25,640 Speaker 14: the most direct read through from the Federal Reserve, Nathan, 300 00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:27,800 Speaker 14: the most direct raid through to the consumer that I 301 00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:30,360 Speaker 14: can think of is kind of interest rates going higher, 302 00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:34,120 Speaker 14: that affecting mortgage rates, that affecting whether or not people 303 00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:36,480 Speaker 14: want to actually invest that kind of money at these 304 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:40,440 Speaker 14: high rates in an actual house or continue the rental story. 305 00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:44,120 Speaker 14: That is your most direct piece of the inflationary kind 306 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:47,240 Speaker 14: of impulse, especially at a time when wages are actually 307 00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:50,040 Speaker 14: higher at the moment than inflation is. For a very 308 00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:52,560 Speaker 14: long time they weren't be, and that time where it 309 00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:57,520 Speaker 14: felt like inflation was outpacing the salary increases that Americans got. 310 00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:00,440 Speaker 14: And I think this applies to every inflationary story around 311 00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:03,880 Speaker 14: the world, but specifically Americans. It is still embedded in 312 00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:07,520 Speaker 14: the psyche that maybe things are still really expensive and 313 00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:09,720 Speaker 14: that we're not making as much in line with inflation. 314 00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:13,800 Speaker 14: When the data shows the opposite, the psychoanalysis of that 315 00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:14,760 Speaker 14: may be very different. 316 00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:18,240 Speaker 2: And that feeds into that argument that Mohammadel area in 317 00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:21,240 Speaker 2: Bloomberg Opinion has been arguing for quite some time that 318 00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:24,720 Speaker 2: the FEDS two percent inflation target might not be realistic 319 00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:27,360 Speaker 2: anymore and they should be thinking maybe more about three 320 00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:28,680 Speaker 2: percent going forward. 321 00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:30,680 Speaker 10: So we'll get much more. 322 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:33,640 Speaker 2: On this in the hours to come when that March 323 00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:36,440 Speaker 2: consumer price index comes out.
