Matt, welcome to the program. 17 00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:57,000 Speaker 2: Have you ever when was the last time you saw 18 00:00:57,000 --> 00:00:59,920 Speaker 2: a decision this finally balanced twenty four hours out? 19 00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:02,120 Speaker 1: I don't remember when. 20 00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:04,320 Speaker 4: I think twenty fifteen was the last one that I 21 00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:07,080 Speaker 4: that I've heard of as a recalling this, but it 22 00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:09,679 Speaker 4: is leaving a lot of uncertainty, and you know, I 23 00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:12,280 Speaker 4: think the FED would like to have more. 24 00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:15,360 Speaker 1: Prepared kind of communication around this. 25 00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:18,240 Speaker 4: And you know what we're looking at is, though not 26 00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:21,840 Speaker 4: to overemphasize one meeting, one data point. I know retail 27 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:23,720 Speaker 4: sales are going to be exciting here in a couple 28 00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:26,200 Speaker 4: in just about an hour, but at the end of 29 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:27,679 Speaker 4: the day, we're starting a cutting cycle. 30 00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 1: That's what we know. 31 00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:31,200 Speaker 4: We know that inflation has come down a lot and 32 00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:34,800 Speaker 4: the unemployment rate is rising. Keep it simple, is it 33 00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:36,959 Speaker 4: relates to that? That means the Fed's going to be cutting. 34 00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:37,920 Speaker 1: In argue, we. 35 00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:40,560 Speaker 4: Could end this cutting cycle with a two handle on 36 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 4: the ten year and frankly a two handle on the 37 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:47,240 Speaker 4: Fed funds rate. And that's with just inflation coming down 38 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:49,360 Speaker 4: we see a recession. We think, actually we can get 39 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:51,640 Speaker 4: a one handle on the Fed funds rate and low 40 00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 4: twos on the tenure. 41 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,600 Speaker 2: Matt, two handles on tens, two handles on Fed funds. 42 00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:58,560 Speaker 2: Tell me where the S and P five hundred is 43 00:01:58,600 --> 00:01:59,440 Speaker 2: against that backdrop? 44 00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:06,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, So that would be assuming a soft landing, which 45 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:07,840 Speaker 4: to us means more chopped. 46 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:09,080 Speaker 1: The problem with. 47 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:11,160 Speaker 4: Wanting more out of the S and P five hundred 48 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 4: is the valuations are already at the upper end of 49 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:16,480 Speaker 4: the range, so we're at about twenty one times on 50 00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:20,120 Speaker 4: the forward PE and the SMP, and then we're baking 51 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:21,200 Speaker 4: in fifteen. 52 00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:21,880 Speaker 1: Percent earning strowth. 53 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:25,799 Speaker 4: So we need earnings growth from here to drive equities. 54 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 4: But frankly, there's already baked in massive growth, so it's 55 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:31,400 Speaker 4: going to be really hard to get much more out 56 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:33,680 Speaker 4: of that. You can make the argument for rotations. 57 00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:34,440 Speaker 1: We do like that. 58 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:38,280 Speaker 4: Right now, we're in MidCap for cheaper ideas across the 59 00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 4: equity market, and we're looking at some high quality cyclicals. 60 00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:45,639 Speaker 4: But at the end of the day, what we're seeing 61 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 4: is the bond market still might have about an eight 62 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 4: percent total return over the next twelve months. We think 63 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 4: that's going to be really competitive on a risk adjusted basis. 64 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:56,520 Speaker 5: It's a pretty radical thought, Matt, the idea of a 65 00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:58,959 Speaker 5: two handle on ten year notes at a time where 66 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,079 Speaker 5: some people are saying it neutral rate is something more 67 00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:03,280 Speaker 5: kin to three and a half percent. Why do you 68 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 5: reject the markets expectations of where the Fed's neutral rate 69 00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:08,079 Speaker 5: really will end up? 70 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean starting out with the neutral rate, you know, 71 00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 4: being around this industry for as long as that in 72 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 4: about ten years now. 73 00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:17,680 Speaker 1: The neutral rate has always been almost like a. 74 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 4: Mysterious number that can never be quantified or found out. 75 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 4: You know, it almost reminds me of productivity in terms 76 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,639 Speaker 4: of economists. But at the end of the day, it's 77 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 4: a cycle. You know, soft landing isn't destination. We're always 78 00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 4: changing and evolving as relates to economic cycle. I wish 79 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 4: you could just stay in one place, but that's not 80 00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:41,520 Speaker 4: how it works. If the unemployment rate is changing and 81 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 4: shifting like a pendulum to a higher unemployment rate, if 82 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 4: inflation is shifting like a pendulum to lower inflation, to us, 83 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:50,840 Speaker 4: that means lower rates. And I think one of the 84 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:54,600 Speaker 4: things we're anchoring on as investors is still thinking about 85 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 4: the COVID era monetary policy fiscal policy disruptions to the 86 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 4: global economy as the new normal, and it's not. 87 00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 1: That was a massive outlier. 88 00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 4: That likely will never happen again, knock on wood in 89 00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 4: our lifetime. And therefore, if we're back to the way 90 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:13,800 Speaker 4: we were pre COVID, why wouldn't. 91 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:15,040 Speaker 1: We be back to a lower rate regime. 92 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 4: And if it's a lower rate regime that's actually good 93 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:20,279 Speaker 4: for stocks and bonds. It means lower inflation, but it 94 00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:22,880 Speaker 4: likely means bonds has more catch up after equities have 95 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:24,240 Speaker 4: done so well as a belief. 96 00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 5: So it sounds like you're still overweight bonds relative to 97 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 5: stocks at this juncture. What could make you flip that 98 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 5: given the fact that ultimately this is a pretty benign 99 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 5: setup for stocks, given the fact that we spent years 100 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 5: talking about how low rates really boosted valuations among equities. 101 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 4: So strategically stocks have done always better than bonds longer term, 102 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:47,440 Speaker 4: and so we are just a modest underweight to stocks 103 00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:50,240 Speaker 4: first bonds. But the biggest change we made in our 104 00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:53,480 Speaker 4: tactical views is just overweighting higher quality. 105 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 1: Parts of the market. 106 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:58,320 Speaker 4: So on the equity side, we're overweight higher quality markets, technology, 107 00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 4: US equities, US large your cap versus smaller camp. And 108 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:05,200 Speaker 4: then in the bond market, investment grade corporates with about 109 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:07,839 Speaker 4: a single a credit quality is about as much credit 110 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 4: risk as we really want to overweight. Agency NBS, investment 111 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:14,040 Speaker 4: grade corporates and things we like. We were doing five 112 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 4: to six percent in yield just a couple of months ago, 113 00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:18,240 Speaker 4: and now we're doing four to five, but again on 114 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:20,840 Speaker 4: a risk adju a basis, we think that's really competitive 115 00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 4: versus stocks. 116 00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 2: Here, you're not scared of being contrarian. Do you find 117 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 2: it uncomfortable that what you're saying this morning is basically 118 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:27,960 Speaker 2: what everyone's been telling us now for the last month. 119 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:31,040 Speaker 4: So I hear that a lot, right, So I don't 120 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,320 Speaker 4: hear that a lot, But nowadays we are hearing that 121 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:37,120 Speaker 4: everyone's bullish on bonds, right, and utilities as you said 122 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 4: earlier in the show, Jell and around the fund manager survey, 123 00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:43,280 Speaker 4: the interest rate sensitive sectors, you know, And I look 124 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 4: at the pricing note of the market, and I also 125 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 4: look at the guts of the market and just cross 126 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:51,520 Speaker 4: asset performance. So we've got goal doing great, the end 127 00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:53,920 Speaker 4: doing great, Treasury is doing great. 128 00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:55,360 Speaker 1: Those are all defensive. 129 00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:58,800 Speaker 4: Those are all saying, hey, the economy slowing, inflation slowing. 130 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:02,000 Speaker 4: Then you got high spreads, it's super tight levels, the 131 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:05,600 Speaker 4: SMP multiple is really high, and it's more small caps 132 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 4: are starting to do well. We're getting cyclicals out of 133 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 4: Europe doing well. So it doesn't add up. That's the 134 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,320 Speaker 4: part of the consensus that I don't get. If you 135 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:15,600 Speaker 4: if you want to say that everyone is more bearish 136 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:18,760 Speaker 4: or suggesting more rate cuts, there's another part of the 137 00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,039 Speaker 4: market that is saying that's contrary to that. So I 138 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:23,240 Speaker 4: think you just need to be careful with that. When 139 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:25,479 Speaker 4: we look at what's priced in, it's a lot of 140 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:28,479 Speaker 4: good news on the risk front, and to me, that 141 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:30,680 Speaker 4: just needs to be shaken out here because the Fed 142 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,680 Speaker 4: can't do everything. They can't just cut you know, it 143 00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 4: consistently and meet up to these expectations and then you know, 144 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:41,080 Speaker 4: support everything that has happened here. So we just want 145 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:44,160 Speaker 4: to take a more managed risk managed approach, a more 146 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:47,920 Speaker 4: conservative approach. We're not underweight, you know, we're not underinvested, 147 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 4: but that income is a key component and that's to 148 00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:53,240 Speaker 4: us going to pay off over time. 149 00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:55,400 Speaker 2: Matt, just love your thoughts on how a price going 150 00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:57,720 Speaker 2: into tomorrow and how you think might respond to any 151 00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 2: given decision. Do you think it's sufficient just to validate 152 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:03,000 Speaker 2: market pricing and the dog plot it is not enough? 153 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:04,200 Speaker 2: Or does this market need more? 154 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:08,160 Speaker 1: I think that's key, John to your point, because. 155 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:10,040 Speaker 4: They could just say twenty five or fifty, but then 156 00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 4: it's how do they say on top of that, what 157 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 4: we're going to do is the end of the year. 158 00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:17,239 Speaker 4: So in the June Summary of Economic Projections dot plot, 159 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 4: they said five point one on the FED funds rate 160 00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:21,400 Speaker 4: by the end of the year. That was the mean 161 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 4: median that has to come down to some degree or else. 162 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:29,040 Speaker 4: So the market's going to be pissed, right, it's overdo it, 163 00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:31,679 Speaker 4: but it's not going to be happy unless they say, 164 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 4: on top of this cut, hey, we're still suggesting cuts 165 00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:39,320 Speaker 4: to come. Because again, if they're not easing, they're tightening, 166 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:42,000 Speaker 4: and that's okay. If they want to push back on 167 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 4: the bond market, if they want to push back on 168 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 4: on the easing that's already baked in, that's fine, but 169 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 4: they got to know that that's what they're doing, and 170 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 4: it's a precarious time to really put more tightening into 171 00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:56,160 Speaker 4: this market. We would follow the bond market. If you 172 00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:58,600 Speaker 4: want to create a soft landing, you need that, You 173 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:00,760 Speaker 4: need tight credit sprints, and you need the initial jobs 174 00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:02,920 Speaker 4: claims to stay low. If you get those three things, 175 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:06,680 Speaker 4: you can keep the soft landing. If not, you're probably 176 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:08,120 Speaker 4: looking at more risks that come. 177 00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:10,840 Speaker 5: Matt, just to sort of underscore one point that you 178 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:14,360 Speaker 5: just made about the stock market just generally being pretty 179 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:18,560 Speaker 5: ticked off, there is a question about whether this photos 180 00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:19,160 Speaker 5: or of cares. 181 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 3: It didn't really care. 182 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:22,320 Speaker 5: On the way up, it seems to care on the 183 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:25,040 Speaker 5: way down. Is that basically the litmus tests that we're 184 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:25,960 Speaker 5: working with. 185 00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:29,560 Speaker 4: Well, there is a wealth effect to these things. So 186 00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 4: you know, consuming at worth through the second quarter hit 187 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 4: all time high, ridiculous trillion trillion dollar amount. But that's 188 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:40,680 Speaker 4: probably helping the economy, that's probably helping consumer spending, that's 189 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 4: helping consumer confidence. And you know, the markets are very 190 00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:47,040 Speaker 4: thickle and volatile, and it's very difficult for the FED 191 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:50,360 Speaker 4: to over extrapolate things because it could change on a dime. 192 00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:53,440 Speaker 4: But at the end of the day, they too need 193 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:56,920 Speaker 4: to be cautious of being too dubbish because yeah, if 194 00:08:57,080 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 4: the wealth effect becomes even bigger, of housing continues to 195 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:04,040 Speaker 4: go hire, that's going to lift inflation. Uh And if 196 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:07,120 Speaker 4: stock markets continue to go up. We could be cautious 197 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:11,640 Speaker 4: here because of more bubble territories. We've had histories, lessons 198 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 4: and lessons of not over stimulating with ultra low interest 199 00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:18,319 Speaker 4: rates because it can create bubbles. You know, for us 200 00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:21,800 Speaker 4: right now cycle wise, we want to protect On the downside, 201 00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 4: I think their mandate really they're dual mandate. They've got 202 00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:27,480 Speaker 4: to focus more on employment than inflation, and that's really 203 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:29,480 Speaker 4: what we've got to look at. But yeah, they've got 204 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 4: to use the side of their eye. They've always got 205 00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 4: to be watching for too much speculative nature in markets, 206 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:40,240 Speaker 4: and we're coming off some pretty sig significant speculation, but 207 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:42,560 Speaker 4: it's still not relieved from the market yet. 208 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:42,960 Speaker 1: Match. 209 00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:45,439 Speaker 2: Just to reminder for next time, we curse in surveillance 210 00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 2: after ours, that's a podcast coming in Q four where 211 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:53,680 Speaker 2: there'll be lots of success if you want to cigaretts. 212 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:55,679 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, oh yeah, that's you just breaking all the 213 00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:56,600 Speaker 2: rou Oh yeah, completely. 214 00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:57,680 Speaker 5: Let's not get carried away. 215 00:09:57,840 --> 00:09:58,440 Speaker 4: Let's just curse. 216 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:11,440 Speaker 2: I'm not missing at John Hancock in Lingo Tobimo writing, 217 00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:13,840 Speaker 2: the primary risk of a fifty basis point cut is 218 00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:16,520 Speaker 2: that the market translates the move into a series of 219 00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:19,720 Speaker 2: fifty basis point reductions that quickly brings the FED funds 220 00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:22,960 Speaker 2: rate back to neutral, thereby effectively cutting for the Fed 221 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 2: and potentially stoking reflation. Ian joins us now for more 222 00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:29,000 Speaker 2: in It's going to see you, sir, Thanks for joining us, 223 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 2: Thanks for having me. 224 00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:29,680 Speaker 1: Err. 225 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:31,319 Speaker 2: I want to start with your note from Yes to them. 226 00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:34,280 Speaker 2: Pick out another quote. Can we expect quote a notably 227 00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:36,840 Speaker 2: quick pace of cuts in the absence of more meaningful 228 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:40,120 Speaker 2: downside in the rear economy, said differently, will the FED 229 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:43,080 Speaker 2: simply mark to market the dot plot or our investors 230 00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:45,480 Speaker 2: in for a surprise, what's your base case? 231 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 6: So I think they should go twenty five. But I 232 00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:51,480 Speaker 6: suspect that if we go into the event priced with 233 00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:54,640 Speaker 6: a higher than eighty percent probability of fifty, that there's 234 00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:57,480 Speaker 6: a really good chance there they move fifty simply to 235 00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:01,320 Speaker 6: front load the process. Now this becomes tricky for the 236 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 6: FED from a communications perspective, because we call what happened 237 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:09,040 Speaker 6: in June. We went into the June FMC decision, they'd 238 00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 6: already submitted their dots, and so if it is a 239 00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:15,199 Speaker 6: game time decision we're walking in, we're going to get fifty, 240 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:17,600 Speaker 6: but it's going to be hawkish or twenty five and 241 00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:18,680 Speaker 6: it's going to be duffish. 242 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:20,959 Speaker 2: And let's talk about resale sales and how that might 243 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:23,520 Speaker 2: influence things. Are you saying it's not that that data 244 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:26,520 Speaker 2: point dependent, it's that that data point could shift market 245 00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 2: expectations so close to fifty they won't want to disappoint. 246 00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:33,000 Speaker 6: Them only if it's really weak. If it comes in stronger, 247 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:35,720 Speaker 6: it's not going to be part of the analysis because 248 00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:38,880 Speaker 6: we already know that the consumer remains and relatively strong footing. 249 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:41,920 Speaker 6: But if we see a negative print, particularly in that 250 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:44,840 Speaker 6: control group, that probably tips the scale to fifty. 251 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:46,240 Speaker 3: What are we pricing in right now? 252 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:47,840 Speaker 5: In the rates market? We've heard a lot of people 253 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 5: disagree around this table, some people saying it is accurately 254 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 5: pricing in about a forty percent chance of recession, which 255 00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:56,199 Speaker 5: is the baseline for bank from America the fund manager 256 00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 5: survey that just came out. Other people saying price is 257 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:02,680 Speaker 5: in a much bigger tail risk of something that's negative. 258 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:03,360 Speaker 7: What's your take? 259 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:06,960 Speaker 6: So when I look at the futures market, what I 260 00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:09,839 Speaker 6: see is the market expects us the FED to get 261 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:12,680 Speaker 6: back to neutral, but not end up cutting into the 262 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:15,640 Speaker 6: one handled territory. So that implies that at least from 263 00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:19,680 Speaker 6: a monetary policy perspective, we're still in a soft landing narrative. 264 00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:23,199 Speaker 3: Now. Ten year yields close to three point fifty. 265 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,679 Speaker 6: Suggests that we're in verse of economic downside over the 266 00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:27,960 Speaker 6: course of the next two or three years, which I 267 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:31,160 Speaker 6: certainly agree with. But I do think that the soft 268 00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:35,320 Speaker 6: landing narrative can probably survive this year, particularly if the 269 00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:37,840 Speaker 6: FED is a bit proactive, and even if we see 270 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:40,000 Speaker 6: a little bit of weakness towards the end of the year, 271 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:41,840 Speaker 6: the market will still think that it's a love. 272 00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:44,319 Speaker 5: Do you not buy the argument that they're just trying 273 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:47,439 Speaker 5: to get back to neutrals, they're not increasing their restrictiveness. 274 00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:49,800 Speaker 5: In other words, does that hold less weight for you 275 00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:52,040 Speaker 5: when you don't have clarity over what they believe the 276 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:53,160 Speaker 5: neutral right to actually be. 277 00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:56,920 Speaker 6: Well, one thing we know is true is that as 278 00:12:57,160 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 6: realized inflation decreases or a year over year basis, that 279 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:04,320 Speaker 6: means that real policy rates are more restrictive. So given 280 00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:06,400 Speaker 6: where we are in the cycle, they need to cut 281 00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:09,240 Speaker 6: rates just to keep the prevailing level of real rates 282 00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:09,880 Speaker 6: as high as that are. 283 00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:13,320 Speaker 8: And if we get a softer retail sales print and 284 00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:15,680 Speaker 8: we have the FED coming or the markets pricing in 285 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:19,040 Speaker 8: fifty more notably not on an I edge really starting fifty, 286 00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 8: but the FED comes out in US twenty five, what 287 00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:21,920 Speaker 8: happens to the market. 288 00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:24,719 Speaker 6: I think it all depends on how Powell spins it, 289 00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:27,959 Speaker 6: and it all depends on what the dot plot tells us, 290 00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:32,199 Speaker 6: because recalled that in June the twenty twenty four dot 291 00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:36,520 Speaker 6: was a five. Twenty five was four point one. If 292 00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:38,640 Speaker 6: we look at what's priced into the market to simply 293 00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:40,760 Speaker 6: mark to market, do we have to get to three percent? 294 00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:44,320 Speaker 6: And so if the Fed says, okay, we'll go into neutral, 295 00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:46,000 Speaker 6: that gives us a three percent and they do that 296 00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:48,560 Speaker 6: via the twenty twenty five dot. I think that the 297 00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:51,960 Speaker 6: market doesn't sell off as much as it would otherwise. 298 00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:55,720 Speaker 2: You mentioned the risk of stoking reinflation or reflation Bill 299 00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:59,079 Speaker 2: Dunkley yesterday, formerly the neo Fed right and Bloombag opinion. 300 00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:00,400 Speaker 3: He thinks they should go big. 301 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:02,360 Speaker 2: He thinks they will go big, and he asked himself 302 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:05,280 Speaker 2: this question, do downsound risk to employment outweigh upside risk 303 00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 2: to inflation. 304 00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:08,280 Speaker 3: I'm going to address you with that question. Do you 305 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:11,240 Speaker 3: think they do well? They certainly did throughout the bulk 306 00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:11,920 Speaker 3: of this cycle. 307 00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:15,360 Speaker 6: Now we're at the point where we have seen the 308 00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 6: unemployment rate materially increase off of. 309 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:18,760 Speaker 3: The cycle low. 310 00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:22,400 Speaker 6: The conversation about whether we're overdue for a spike higher 311 00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:26,760 Speaker 6: and on the unemployment remains very valid. In effect, what 312 00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:30,920 Speaker 6: the Fed is doing is their changing monetary policy for 313 00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 6: the second half of next year, not for the current data. 314 00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 6: So it's the trajectory of the prevailing data, and it 315 00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:40,160 Speaker 6: might make sense to go big early with the expectations 316 00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:42,480 Speaker 6: that they can solve next year's problem. 317 00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:44,600 Speaker 2: We keep saying the FED, but when we're talking about 318 00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:48,040 Speaker 2: the FED, we're talking about a group of individual policymakers 319 00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:50,360 Speaker 2: who apparently have some different views on where we are 320 00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:53,160 Speaker 2: at the moment. And I wonder tomorrow, when that decision 321 00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:55,960 Speaker 2: drops and we talk about the decision twenty five versus fifteen, 322 00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:57,720 Speaker 2: then we go for the forecast, we'll just be talking 323 00:14:57,760 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 2: about medians. Will that mask a great divide on a 324 00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:01,600 Speaker 2: cephalem C? 325 00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 3: I think that we also might see a descent. 326 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:08,480 Speaker 6: There's nothing to suggest that everyone needs to vote in 327 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:10,800 Speaker 6: for twenty five or fifty, So I think that that 328 00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:14,480 Speaker 6: could be another way to communicate to the market that 329 00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:18,360 Speaker 6: it was a knife edged decision and it's uncertain going forward. 330 00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:20,480 Speaker 5: Do you think that there's a chance of a seventy 331 00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:23,000 Speaker 5: five basis point rate cut because of Elizabeth Warren? 332 00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:26,440 Speaker 3: That's really not been top of mine recently. 333 00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:29,440 Speaker 5: The reason why I had is because we were talking 334 00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:31,680 Speaker 5: about it earlier, and as someone who's in this market, 335 00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:34,760 Speaker 5: I wonder sort of whether people actually dismiss this, whether 336 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:37,600 Speaker 5: it's actually harmful to the functioning of the Federal Reserve, 337 00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:41,600 Speaker 5: or basically just noise with people trying to get their 338 00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:42,200 Speaker 5: voices heard. 339 00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:45,280 Speaker 3: I think the I think the latter point. I think 340 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:46,640 Speaker 3: that they're just trying. 341 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:49,680 Speaker 6: To be part of the micro conversation and it's not 342 00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:51,880 Speaker 6: going to be particularly influential for the FLMC. 343 00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:53,560 Speaker 2: I love that you got last it a site noise 344 00:15:53,640 --> 00:16:06,520 Speaker 2: for you to continue this conversation. Joining us now, Islurina 345 00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:10,120 Speaker 2: Ruchi of t row Price Plurina, let's get to this data. 346 00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 2: It seems to have settled absolutely nothing about whether we 347 00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:15,960 Speaker 2: go twenty five or fifty tomorrow afternoon. What's your base 348 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:17,200 Speaker 2: case now? 349 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:21,080 Speaker 9: So I would say that what we discussed here in 350 00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:24,520 Speaker 9: the past is still valid, that the FED is data dependent, 351 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:27,400 Speaker 9: not data point dependent, And so I hope when they 352 00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:30,240 Speaker 9: sit in their deliberations today and tomorrow, they'll look at 353 00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:33,320 Speaker 9: what we've seen in the economy over the last three months. 354 00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:36,160 Speaker 7: I would say, before the quiet period, we. 355 00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:38,640 Speaker 9: Didn't have an indication that they wanted to start this 356 00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:41,680 Speaker 9: cutting cycle with a big cut. But it seems like 357 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:46,160 Speaker 9: perhaps we don't have as good a sense of how 358 00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:49,640 Speaker 9: the FED is interpreting the labor market data as we should, 359 00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:52,040 Speaker 9: And so I think into the decision. 360 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:53,720 Speaker 7: It's really essentially a coin flip. 361 00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:56,960 Speaker 9: And I don't disagree with market expectations here. I do 362 00:16:57,040 --> 00:17:00,640 Speaker 9: think that the FED perhaps is looking at the fall 363 00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:04,119 Speaker 9: in vacancy rates, at the recent uptack in the unemployment rate, 364 00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:09,560 Speaker 9: and the labor market differential from the consumer side of 365 00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:12,000 Speaker 9: the data, and saying, Okay, the labor market is really 366 00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:15,040 Speaker 9: slowing down, and perhaps we are a bit behind the curve, 367 00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:17,720 Speaker 9: and we want to take some insurance cuts early in 368 00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:20,040 Speaker 9: the cycle. So I think it's completely possible that we 369 00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:24,520 Speaker 9: get a fifty basis point cut tomorrow. And I do 370 00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:27,680 Speaker 9: think that the Summary of Economic Projections is probably going 371 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:30,320 Speaker 9: to show that the dot plot has one hundred basis 372 00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:33,159 Speaker 9: point worth of cuts for the year as a whole. 373 00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:37,480 Speaker 9: And I think if you consider how the market deals 374 00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:43,160 Speaker 9: with uncertainty, perhaps from the FMCS perspective, it makes communication easier. 375 00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:45,679 Speaker 9: They start with fifty basis points and then the market 376 00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:49,399 Speaker 9: can expect that the November and December meeting a couple 377 00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:51,200 Speaker 9: of twenty five basis point cuts. 378 00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:53,919 Speaker 2: You mentioned the SEP. Let's start there and we'll unpack 379 00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:55,680 Speaker 2: the rest in just a moment. The so Many of 380 00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:58,439 Speaker 2: Economic Projections was last published on June twelfth, and that 381 00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:01,800 Speaker 2: is super superstow. We're going to see some major revisions 382 00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:03,920 Speaker 2: to that one. You mentioned how the median dot would 383 00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:06,040 Speaker 2: come down and show in basically one hundred basis points 384 00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:09,080 Speaker 2: of cuts for this year. Can you walk me through 385 00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:12,440 Speaker 2: twenty twenty five? Where's that median doll for twenty five. 386 00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:15,800 Speaker 7: Right? I think you're absolutely right. 387 00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:18,240 Speaker 9: We're going to get a much more doavash dot cloud 388 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:20,640 Speaker 9: than we had in June. Just a reminder in June 389 00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:23,359 Speaker 9: which had only one cut for this year. So the 390 00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:27,359 Speaker 9: INFORMC has really changed their assessment of the economy and 391 00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:33,200 Speaker 9: of the cutting cycle for next year. I don't expect changes. 392 00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:36,639 Speaker 9: I think they're going to still have four cuts. It 393 00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:39,760 Speaker 9: would be a very doubbish surprise if they fully embrace 394 00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:43,200 Speaker 9: market pricing and show four cuts this year and six 395 00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:46,040 Speaker 9: cuts next year. It's a risk to my view, but 396 00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:49,639 Speaker 9: I do think that's shifting to eight cuts over the 397 00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:52,600 Speaker 9: next fifteen months or so. It's already a very douvish 398 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:55,400 Speaker 9: move from the side of the fat. And then if 399 00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:58,920 Speaker 9: you consider where they had interest rates at the end 400 00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:01,880 Speaker 9: of the cutting sete, I think essentially what's. 401 00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:03,919 Speaker 7: Happening is they're not changing. 402 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:06,840 Speaker 9: Their idea or their view of the destination and the 403 00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:08,000 Speaker 9: long run rate. 404 00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 7: They're just bringing. 405 00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:11,960 Speaker 9: Those cuts forward because the cooling in the labor market 406 00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:15,760 Speaker 9: and inflation is happening faster than they expected back in June. 407 00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:18,320 Speaker 5: Just to sort of build on that, there's this feeling 408 00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:20,800 Speaker 5: that later this year it'll get that much more difficult 409 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:23,639 Speaker 5: for the Federal Reserve to project out some sort of 410 00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:27,639 Speaker 5: path with potentially some different fiscal proposals they could come 411 00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:30,840 Speaker 5: to the fore that could very much affect inflation. Do 412 00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:33,359 Speaker 5: you expect that to be sort of hinted at or 413 00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:37,359 Speaker 5: suggested discussed by a Federal Reserve that has hinted about 414 00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:41,040 Speaker 5: the deficit as well as some other government programs. 415 00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:45,719 Speaker 9: I do expect that the f Y and C and 416 00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:49,960 Speaker 9: Powell in particular, during the press conference will be asked 417 00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 9: this question. I think they will stick with their mantra 418 00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:56,200 Speaker 9: here that they take fiscal policy as given. 419 00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:58,520 Speaker 7: I do think, though, they. 420 00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:05,440 Speaker 9: Are sure assessing risks around their outlook as with regards 421 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:09,119 Speaker 9: to what will happen if we have tariffs across the board. 422 00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:11,680 Speaker 9: I know that we've had tariffs in the past. It's 423 00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:14,439 Speaker 9: a one off shock to the price level, but we 424 00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:18,760 Speaker 9: haven't had sustained high inflation at these levels for quite 425 00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:22,080 Speaker 9: some decades, So what will it do to inflation expectations 426 00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:25,320 Speaker 9: if you have another shock to prices? 427 00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:27,720 Speaker 7: So I think this will be part of the deliberation. 428 00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:30,800 Speaker 9: I do think that when they get asked directly about it, 429 00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:34,280 Speaker 9: they're not going to comment. But for me, I think, 430 00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:39,280 Speaker 9: even setting aside fiscal policy uncertainty, I do have a 431 00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:43,600 Speaker 9: more benign or optimistic interpretation of data, both from the 432 00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:46,879 Speaker 9: labor market and activity then the market seem to have. 433 00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:50,399 Speaker 9: And I do think if the FED front loads cuts 434 00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:53,359 Speaker 9: and eating in financial conditions, that it's setting up the 435 00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:57,479 Speaker 9: economy to perform quite well later this year and at 436 00:20:57,520 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 9: the beginning of twenty twenty five. And I think this 437 00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:04,760 Speaker 9: will put forward some challenges to them bringing inflation down 438 00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:05,520 Speaker 9: to two percent. 439 00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:08,880 Speaker 8: Is there any chance that there's a risk that this 440 00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:12,480 Speaker 8: could set up the economy to, besides doing quite well, 441 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:19,600 Speaker 8: potentially reaccelerate inflation Marena. 442 00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:20,040 Speaker 9: I think this is the key risk that people are 443 00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:22,959 Speaker 9: not talking about anymore. I do think there is too 444 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:26,840 Speaker 9: much certainty priced in the market that the FED is 445 00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:30,840 Speaker 9: going to bring inflation down to two percent. And when 446 00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:33,480 Speaker 9: I look at the progress we've made so far on 447 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:36,960 Speaker 9: goods disinflation, A lot of that has been driven by 448 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 9: dollar strength by week, import prices, improving supply chains. I 449 00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:44,159 Speaker 9: don't expect that impulse to help the FED quite as much. 450 00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:49,040 Speaker 9: I get the idea that globally commodity prices are soft 451 00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:51,800 Speaker 9: because we have a China slowdown in the picture, But 452 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:54,919 Speaker 9: we're seeing signs of gold and copper picking up, and 453 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:59,320 Speaker 9: I think that's basically a precursor to global commodity prices 454 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:01,600 Speaker 9: perhaps picking up, and that's not good news for the 455 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:05,600 Speaker 9: FED cutting interest rates. The market is pricing more aggressive 456 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:09,119 Speaker 9: cuts from the Fed than say the ECB Bank of 457 00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:11,439 Speaker 9: Canada or buy at the moment. I think that's going 458 00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:13,399 Speaker 9: to lead to some dollar weakness as well. 459 00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:15,840 Speaker 7: So I'm not very. 460 00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:19,119 Speaker 9: Optimistic that the disinflation in goods is going to be sustained. 461 00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:21,400 Speaker 9: And I think we're going to have more volatility when 462 00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:24,480 Speaker 9: it comes to domestic services prices. 463 00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 7: And rent inflation. 464 00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:29,240 Speaker 9: So too much uncertainty, and my view is priced in 465 00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:32,240 Speaker 9: with regards to bringing inflation down to two percent. 466 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:34,000 Speaker 2: We've got to leave it there. We appreciate your insight 467 00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 2: got into the Federal Reserve decision tomorrow Loriina Richie at 468 00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:42,320 Speaker 2: zero Price.
