1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:15,680 Speaker 1: Bloomberg Audio Studios, Podcasts, radio news. 2 00:00:14,200 --> 00:00:16,640 Speaker 2: A single best Idea quick one today, busy, busy day. 3 00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:19,160 Speaker 2: I'll be with Bob Michael of JP Morgan hit a 4 00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:22,360 Speaker 2: wonderful Bloomberg conference this after and I'm really looking forward 5 00:00:22,360 --> 00:00:24,799 Speaker 2: to that. It's made easier because Michael has been so 6 00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:28,680 Speaker 2: right about yields coming in. I released today my chart 7 00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:30,760 Speaker 2: of the year for twenty twenty four. It's out on 8 00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:32,640 Speaker 2: Twitter on LinkedIn. I got to figure out how to 9 00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:35,640 Speaker 2: make it prettier, but there it is, and it's what 10 00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:38,880 Speaker 2: I least expected. Last year, I did not participate full 11 00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:43,080 Speaker 2: disclosure in a bond bow market. We came from a 12 00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:48,120 Speaker 2: crushing negative six standard deviations. That's a medical chart, folks, 13 00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:51,880 Speaker 2: the carnage in the bond market, negative six standard deviations 14 00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 2: in the Bloomberg Corporate Series total return series, and we 15 00:00:56,160 --> 00:01:00,160 Speaker 2: come up not quite halfway back to the nirvana of 16 00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:03,360 Speaker 2: the great moderation. I did not see this coming. It 17 00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:05,600 Speaker 2: is my chart of the year. Look for that. I'll 18 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:08,640 Speaker 2: do it, you know more here through November and into 19 00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:14,000 Speaker 2: December as well. We had a spectacular bond show. Today 20 00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:16,600 Speaker 2: we're going to focus on single best idea and what 21 00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:20,280 Speaker 2: you're focused on, not McDonald's, not Boeing, maybe earning season 22 00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:25,160 Speaker 2: in place Microsoft, the thirtieth Apple and Halloween. You know, 23 00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:28,000 Speaker 2: we'll have to see how technology does. But you got 24 00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:30,240 Speaker 2: to be in the market to play. Who else to 25 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 2: talk to but Robert Dahl of cross Mark. 26 00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:35,720 Speaker 3: It does not pay over the long term. If you 27 00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:39,440 Speaker 3: have no information to be out of stocks. Stocks beat 28 00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:43,240 Speaker 3: most other major asset classes most of the time. That's 29 00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 3: the starting point. Then you can get more sophisticated after that. 30 00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:50,920 Speaker 3: But look, we're always scared market. Stocks in particular love 31 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:54,360 Speaker 3: to climb a wall of worry. Yes we're worried about elections. 32 00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:58,440 Speaker 3: Yes we're worried about earnings. Yes we're worried about evaluate valuations, 33 00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:01,000 Speaker 3: we're worried about the fit, all kinds of things, not 34 00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:03,880 Speaker 3: to mention the geopolitical issues. But you've got to be 35 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:07,160 Speaker 3: invested if you're going to make those long term returns. 36 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:11,080 Speaker 3: Notwithstanding that long term comment that of Costin and I 37 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:13,600 Speaker 3: are making about valuation. 38 00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:17,080 Speaker 2: Starting point, Bob doh, they're talking, and that question was 39 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:20,760 Speaker 2: off of the debate off of Golden Sechs David Conston 40 00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 2: looking out ten years for some mediocre returns. Doll agrees 41 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:28,560 Speaker 2: with Coston and Ardnny writing a note last night really 42 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:32,240 Speaker 2: pushing against the Golden Sechs thesis, looking for a roaring 43 00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 2: twenty twenties, and at the end of the note he says, 44 00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:39,440 Speaker 2: can he dare predict a roaring two and thirties? We 45 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:43,080 Speaker 2: will get both mister Coston and mister Yardnny on surveillance 46 00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:47,359 Speaker 2: as their schedules permit. Always a good day when Francis 47 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 2: Donald darkens the door. Here at our World headquarters, fifty 48 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 2: ninth Street at Lexington Avenue, Francis Donald with RBC Capital Markets. 49 00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:59,200 Speaker 2: All Paul wanted to do was talk to about Montreal. 50 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 2: I mean, she is Canadians, and we covered that Canadians. 51 00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:06,680 Speaker 2: Are we building Here here's Francis Donald on what you're 52 00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:09,399 Speaker 2: worried about the nation's debt and deficit. 53 00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 4: I can't believe we don't talk every single day about 54 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 4: federal spending. It has been so extraordinarily disruptive to every 55 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 4: single economic model that exists, and it has changed the 56 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 4: way that we have to evaluate the cycle. But problematically, 57 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:27,520 Speaker 4: we see these deficits rise and spending increase. But net 58 00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:30,799 Speaker 4: interest spending is now larger than defense spending. And if 59 00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 4: we're spending government money and it's going to pay treasury 60 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 4: holders outside of the United States. That's not helping everyday Americans. 61 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 4: It's not boosting growth, and it's not actually inflationary either. 62 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 4: So it isn't just about the amount of government spending, 63 00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 4: which is just chaotic in terms of how it's changing 64 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 4: the way the economy operates. It's where it's going and defense, 65 00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:56,080 Speaker 4: net interest spending, even entitlements, is not going to be 66 00:03:56,360 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 4: the juice that fuels this extended, continuous, resilient aggregate economy. 67 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 2: Francis Donald RBC, what are we doing here at Single 68 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 2: Best Idea?
