The Freedom Caucus thought that Kevin's support would 44 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:33,280 Speaker 1: start to fold, uh, and that has not happened. House 45 00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 1: lawmakers reconvene at noon today in Washington. I'm Amy Morris, 46 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:39,440 Speaker 1: Bloomberg Daybreak. All right, Amy, thank you. It will be 47 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:41,799 Speaker 1: following the next round of votes throughout the day here 48 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 1: on Bloomberg Radio. Meantime, another major event in Washington takes 49 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:48,040 Speaker 1: place at eight thirty am Wall Street time. That's when 50 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:51,680 Speaker 1: the December JOMPS report is released. Economy is forecast again 51 00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 1: of two hundred two thousand jobs and an unemployment rate 52 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:57,560 Speaker 1: holding study at three point seven percent. Here with Morris, 53 00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 1: Bloomberg Economics corresponded. Michael McKee, economist, think hiring will slow 54 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:06,480 Speaker 1: dramatically and unemployment will jump higher. Just not yet. Even 55 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:09,200 Speaker 1: though the Fed has been raising rates aggressively, it hasn't 56 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:12,079 Speaker 1: slowed the economy enough to affect the labor market. FED 57 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:15,960 Speaker 1: officials say that shows no recession is imminent. They also 58 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 1: worry it means continued inflation pressure. There are not enough 59 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:23,119 Speaker 1: workers for open jobs, which means employers have to raise wages. 60 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:27,359 Speaker 1: That's particularly true for service industries, and that makes December 61 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:31,080 Speaker 1: service industry jobs and earnings key numbers for FED officials 62 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:34,520 Speaker 1: as they decide how high they have to push interest rates. 63 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 1: Michael McKee, Bloomberg, Gabriak, and Mike the Fed will be 64 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:40,960 Speaker 1: paying close attention to today's jobs reports. St. Louis President 65 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:43,520 Speaker 1: James Bullard says interest rates are getting close to a 66 00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 1: level that could be high enough to bring down inflation. 67 00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 1: The point of this is that we've gone all the 68 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 1: way back now to the pre inflation shock level of 69 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 1: inflation expectations. UH macro theories tell us that that boat 70 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:01,320 Speaker 1: is very well for the future of an actual inflation. 71 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 1: So this is a good signal for disinflation in St. Louis. 72 00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 1: FED President Jim Bullard is one of the more hawkish 73 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 1: members of the FED, but he is not a voting 74 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:13,920 Speaker 1: member on the f o MC this year. Still, Nathan, 75 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:17,280 Speaker 1: higher interest rates are not yet having a major impact 76 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 1: on the economy. And that's the view from Carlyle Managing 77 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:23,560 Speaker 1: Director and head of Global Research Jason Thomas. The economy 78 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 1: seems to be heading for an iceberg in the form 79 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 1: of higher interest rates. Those higher interest rates have really 80 00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 1: not taken effect as yet for most borrowers. It's really 81 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:35,600 Speaker 1: the December nineteen reference date. So as of Q one 82 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 1: three floating rate corporate borrowers are going to face UH 83 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:43,480 Speaker 1: debt service costs that are about fifty to sixty higher 84 00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 1: than they experienced just six months ago. Carlyles Jason Thomas 85 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:49,880 Speaker 1: expects the Fed to raise rates by twenty five basis 86 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 1: points at each of its next two meetings. Have you 87 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:54,800 Speaker 1: that's in line with expectations on the street. Well. The 88 00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:58,160 Speaker 1: prospect of higher rates Karen helped send stocks lower yesterday. 89 00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:01,080 Speaker 1: All three major indexes lost at least one percent after 90 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 1: hiring numbers surpassed estimates in the A, d P, and 91 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 1: jobless claims, reports Sam Stovall, as chief investment strategist at 92 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:10,159 Speaker 1: c f R A. It seems as if we are 93 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:13,840 Speaker 1: heading into three the way a lot of strategists have 94 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:16,719 Speaker 1: been predicting where it's going to be A tale of 95 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:19,800 Speaker 1: two halves, where the first half is likely to be 96 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 1: challenging with high volatility, retest of the October low, maybe 97 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 1: even a new low set. But then investors look across 98 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 1: the valley and we start to see a recovery in 99 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 1: the second half. C A. Sam Stovall says the FED 100 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:36,919 Speaker 1: could pivot and start cutting rates around December. Well. Turning 101 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 1: to the ft X saga now, Nathan us authorities are 102 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:42,800 Speaker 1: renting up pressure on the inner circle of fd X 103 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:45,919 Speaker 1: co founder Sam Bankman Freed, and we get the latest 104 00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:49,479 Speaker 1: live at Bloomberg Steve Rappaport at Steve good Morning, Good morning, Karen, 105 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:52,719 Speaker 1: and Nathan.

Singh has not 109 00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 1: been accused of wrongdoing, and it's unclear if he's cooperating. 110 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 1: Prosecutors already have two people from SPFS Orbit in their corner, 111 00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:11,599 Speaker 1: Caroline Ellison and Gary Wang, pled guilty to fraud and 112 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 1: are working with the government.

Both teams will play Sunday.

Both had a 180 00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:15,600 Speaker 1: chance to earn the one seed and the first round 181 00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:18,440 Speaker 1: by If Kansas City wins tomorrow, the Chiefs are assured 182 00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:21,840 Speaker 1: of finishing with the best win percentage.

Meanwhile, we heard yesterday for the first time 185 00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:31,560 Speaker 1: from Hamlin's doctor in Cincinnati, and the news from Timothy 186 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:34,560 Speaker 1: Pritz was terrific. We would like to share that there 187 00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:37,320 Speaker 1: has been substantial improvement and is conditioned over the past 188 00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 1: twenty four hours. We had significant concern um about him 189 00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 1: after the injury, after the event that happened on the field, 190 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:49,920 Speaker 1: but he is making substantial progress, Pritz said. The first 191 00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 1: question Hamlin asked was whether the Bills had won the game. 192 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 1: Local hockey Rangers won four one at Montreal. The Islanders 193 00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:58,520 Speaker 1: lost for two. In Edmonton, Devils lost to St. Louis 194 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:01,000 Speaker 1: five three.

This is Bloomberg Daybreak. 217 00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 1: Good morning, I'm Nathan Hagarn. While we wait for the 218 00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:20,760 Speaker 1: December payrolls report on this job's Friday, there is still 219 00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:23,920 Speaker 1: one key position on Capitol Hill that has yet to 220 00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:26,240 Speaker 1: be filled that would be Speaker of the House. We're 221 00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:29,800 Speaker 1: heading into a fourth day of the D eight Congress, 222 00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 1: and at this point it is still tough to say 223 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:35,760 Speaker 1: whether lawmakers can resolve the mismatch between Kevin McCarthy, the 224 00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:39,640 Speaker 1: House GLP leader, and those twenty or so Republicans standing 225 00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:42,200 Speaker 1: in the way of his gavel. Once again, we're joined 226 00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:45,319 Speaker 1: by Greg Valier Live this morning, chief US policy strategist 227 00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 1: at a GF Investments. Uh. Is it starting to feel 228 00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:51,440 Speaker 1: like Groundhog Day? Where you said, Greg, you bet, Mason, 229 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:54,800 Speaker 1: it's sort of like the inmates have taken over the asylum, 230 00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:59,160 Speaker 1: and unfortunately this could drag on for many, many more days. 231 00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:03,640 Speaker 1: I think you wrote a note earlier this week talking 232 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:08,400 Speaker 1: about the extraordinary concessions that Kevin McCarthy has made to 233 00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:13,079 Speaker 1: try to hold on to actually get the gavel. Are 234 00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:17,520 Speaker 1: there any other concessions he can make at this point? No, 235 00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:21,840 Speaker 1: there's not much else. I mean, he's agreed to humiliating 236 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:26,360 Speaker 1: restraints on the role of a speaker, and the irony here, Nathan, 237 00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:30,240 Speaker 1: is that moderate Republicans in the House are a guest 238 00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:33,640 Speaker 1: and they may turn against McCarthy. A lot of moderates 239 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:37,600 Speaker 1: we're saying late yesterday that they could never accept this 240 00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:40,960 Speaker 1: kind of concession. The other irony is that even with 241 00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:45,559 Speaker 1: this concession, there's a hardcore of four or five very 242 00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:50,520 Speaker 1: adamant House Conservatives who would not vote for McCarthy under 243 00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:54,240 Speaker 1: any circumstances. So I don't see where the concession gets 244 00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:58,079 Speaker 1: him other than diminished support among moderates. Well, let's get 245 00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:03,480 Speaker 1: to your first point there about moderate Republicans potentially providing 246 00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:08,360 Speaker 1: a backlash against McCarthy for the concessions he's made. Uh, 247 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:10,080 Speaker 1: let me pin you down a little bit on that. 248 00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:14,280 Speaker 1: Are you actually hearing from certain moderates who are saying 249 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:19,120 Speaker 1: that they may withhold or withdraw their support for McCarthy 250 00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:22,360 Speaker 1: as this process plays out. I'm not sure they're there yet. 251 00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 1: I think they would like to get some assurance that, uh, 252 00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 1: this isn't as radical as it looks. But to answer 253 00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:31,880 Speaker 1: your question, yes, there are some who are willing to 254 00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:35,920 Speaker 1: withhold their support if one vote, if one lone House 255 00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:38,840 Speaker 1: member says I want to try to remove the speaker, 256 00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:41,960 Speaker 1: that's that's just no way to run a railroad. And 257 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 1: when it comes to those four or five seeming members 258 00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:50,960 Speaker 1: who just aren't going to vote for McCarthy under any circumstance, 259 00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:55,040 Speaker 1: does that lead to an opening for someone else's potential 260 00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:58,880 Speaker 1: alternative to step forward. Well, A good point. There's been 261 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:01,040 Speaker 1: a lot of other names outed this week, as you know, 262 00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:05,440 Speaker 1: including Jim Jordan's and especially Steve Scalise, but Skalis, who 263 00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:08,520 Speaker 1: is quite popular in the House, is part of the leadership, 264 00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:11,600 Speaker 1: and I think those four or five holdouts probably would 265 00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:14,280 Speaker 1: would hold it against him. There are all sorts of 266 00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:17,640 Speaker 1: other rumors about maybe a bipartisan deal with the Democrats, 267 00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:22,640 Speaker 1: which I think is quite unlikely, maybe floating the name 268 00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:26,840 Speaker 1: of another possible Canada, maybe changing the rule you need 269 00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:30,720 Speaker 1: two hundred eighteen votes, maybe reducing that by having some 270 00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:35,360 Speaker 1: members stay off the floor, all sorts of hail Mary's. 271 00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:37,400 Speaker 1: But I think the bottom line is that they're still 272 00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:40,080 Speaker 1: not there, and I don't think they'll get a deal today. 273 00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:43,560 Speaker 1: And we've talked before about what the potential this could 274 00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:46,960 Speaker 1: mean for the debt ceiling fight later on this year, 275 00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:50,120 Speaker 1: getting appropriations passed later on this year as well, if 276 00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:52,800 Speaker 1: we continue to see this kind of fractiousness. We're starting 277 00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:54,800 Speaker 1: to hear as well from some lawmakers who are saying 278 00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 1: this stalemate could potentially risk US national security because Congress 279 00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:02,200 Speaker 1: can't move till they get this matter resolved is is 280 00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 1: that taking things too far? Is there something to that? No, 281 00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:07,440 Speaker 1: there's something to that. I mean it's easy to say 282 00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:10,280 Speaker 1: Congress doesn't matter, but no, there are things that are 283 00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:13,280 Speaker 1: really important. In the short term. What if there's a 284 00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:17,440 Speaker 1: foreign policy crisis that needs immediate funding. What if the 285 00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:21,240 Speaker 1: flooding continues in California it's quite severe as you know, 286 00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:25,440 Speaker 1: maybe there's a need for aid to California. And the 287 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:28,560 Speaker 1: long term, the issue is going to be budget stuff. 288 00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:31,240 Speaker 1: It will be the death ceiling, it'll be a possible 289 00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:35,480 Speaker 1: default crisis. These are serious issues and if the if 290 00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:39,120 Speaker 1: the House is this NEWTD, it's going to be difficult 291 00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:42,880 Speaker 1: to deal with those issues. Does this have any implications 292 00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:47,320 Speaker 1: for in terms of the politics, the way the parties 293 00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:51,200 Speaker 1: are viewed after this fight, It will be interesting to 294 00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:53,200 Speaker 1: see the polls. I haven't seen any of this week. 295 00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 1: I suspect will be sort of a pox on both 296 00:16:56,280 --> 00:17:00,680 Speaker 1: your houses mentality, but in in to be you're realistic, 297 00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:03,240 Speaker 1: I mean, this will blow up on Republicans. I think 298 00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:08,200 Speaker 1: they are looking pretty bad, especially compared to Nancy Pelosi, 299 00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 1: who did a pretty good job as House Speaker. So no, 300 00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:14,120 Speaker 1: I think as we go into the election, it would 301 00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:17,399 Speaker 1: hurt Republicans in the House. The Senate is different. Of 302 00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:21,320 Speaker 1: the seats up in the Senate favor the Republicans in 303 00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:24,320 Speaker 1: this cycle, but I think the House could get a 304 00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:28,159 Speaker 1: major pushback from voters if this is not resolved. And 305 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:30,840 Speaker 1: we'll see if We'll be checking back with you next 306 00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:34,080 Speaker 1: week if this isn't resolved.

A major storm that slammed 334 00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:14,359 Speaker 1: into California has led to flooding down the trees and 335 00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:18,320 Speaker 1: power outages across the state. Doctors say the mar Hamlin 336 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:22,040 Speaker 1: is beginning to awaken and is showing substantial improvement. The 337 00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:25,120 Speaker 1: Buffalo Bill Safety went into Carniac arrest during Monday Night 338 00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:30,160 Speaker 1: football doctor Say Hamblin's first question was did we win? Meanwhile, 339 00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:33,320 Speaker 1: the NFL canceled the game between the Bills and Bengals. 340 00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 1: In hockey, Devils and Islanders lost, Ranges Bruins and Capitols 341 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:40,440 Speaker 1: one in the NBA, the Celtics one. Global News twenty 342 00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:43,440 Speaker 1: four hours a day on air and on Bloomberg Quick Take, 343 00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:46,640 Speaker 1: powered by more than twenty seven hundred journalists and analysts 344 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:49,680 Speaker 1: more than a hundred twenty countries. Michael Barr and this 345 00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:52,480 Speaker 1: is Bloomberg. Nathan love to hear that from mar Hamlin. 346 00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 1: Did we win? What a great partnersis? Thank you, Michael. 347 00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:59,919 Speaker 1: It's on Wall Street, Nathan Hagar and this is Bloomberg Daybreak. 348 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,000 Speaker 1: When you hear someone say things are moving toward an 349 00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:06,240 Speaker 1: iceberg usually doesn't mean anything good. And Carlisle, head of 350 00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:09,240 Speaker 1: Global Research, Jason Thomas says that's where he thinks the 351 00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:13,240 Speaker 1: US economy is headed. Thomas expects corporations to remain under 352 00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:16,640 Speaker 1: pressure as the Federal Reserve keeps hiking interest rates. It's 353 00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:19,159 Speaker 1: got the details from Jason Thomas. Now he spoke with 354 00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:22,200 Speaker 1: Bloomberg's David and Glass and Evon Man. Can they use 355 00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:25,040 Speaker 1: economy of void to recession. What do you think? Maybe, 356 00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:28,560 Speaker 1: but but it does seem unlikely. And that's really because 357 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:31,960 Speaker 1: of the the the economy seems to be heading for 358 00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:34,960 Speaker 1: an iceberg in the form of higher interest rates. Those 359 00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:37,760 Speaker 1: higher interest rates have really not taken effect as yet 360 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:41,800 Speaker 1: for most borrowers. It's really the December nineteen reference date. 361 00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:46,480 Speaker 1: So as of Q one floating rate, corporate borrowers are 362 00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:49,440 Speaker 1: going to face UH debt service costs that are about 363 00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:53,480 Speaker 1: fifty to six higher than they experience just six months ago. 364 00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:56,800 Speaker 1: So I do think we're going to see increased levels 365 00:20:56,840 --> 00:21:00,679 Speaker 1: of financial distress. Um, I'm speculative, great barrow. And of 366 00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:03,000 Speaker 1: course that's going to cause a lot of management teams 367 00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:06,760 Speaker 1: to change their behavior. Rather than a growth orientation, they're 368 00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:08,760 Speaker 1: going to start to think about cost cutting and and 369 00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:12,480 Speaker 1: this seems to me precisely how a recession gets propagated. 370 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:14,840 Speaker 1: And then, you know, you still have the likes of 371 00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:18,359 Speaker 1: some FED speakers like Estra George, you know, speaking and saying, 372 00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:21,520 Speaker 1: you know, she aspects the FED fundraise to be over 373 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:24,920 Speaker 1: five percent and stay there for much of four What 374 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:27,959 Speaker 1: with forced the FED to pivot? Then do you think, Jason, 375 00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:30,520 Speaker 1: you know, all this talk of a pivot really seems 376 00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:34,000 Speaker 1: so premature. As you alluded, I think that the FED 377 00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:36,840 Speaker 1: right now is very concerned that inflation is going to 378 00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:41,200 Speaker 1: remain stuck above four percent. Inflation has come down, obviously, 379 00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:45,680 Speaker 1: price pressures have eased, the supply chain crisis is effectively over, 380 00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:48,800 Speaker 1: but you still have lots of reasons to again fear 381 00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:51,480 Speaker 1: that that inflation is going to remain elevated relative to 382 00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:55,440 Speaker 1: the two percent target. First, you have wage growth at 383 00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:58,919 Speaker 1: low skill levels. There there is still significant labor shortages 384 00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:02,159 Speaker 1: low skill levels, earnings are growing at about a seven 385 00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:06,359 Speaker 1: percent annualized rate overall wage growth, again consistent with roughly 386 00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:10,240 Speaker 1: four percent inflation. And then, I think most consequentially, you 387 00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:13,800 Speaker 1: still have management teams that got a taste for pushing 388 00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:16,840 Speaker 1: price through over the past couple of years and are 389 00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:21,120 Speaker 1: still looking to increase prices where possible, And I think 390 00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:23,880 Speaker 1: really the only way for the FED to deter those 391 00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:28,240 Speaker 1: additional rounds of price increases is to impress upon management 392 00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:31,520 Speaker 1: teams that those price increases are going to result in 393 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:34,560 Speaker 1: lost sales or lost market share. And and again the 394 00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:37,400 Speaker 1: only way to do that is to further restraint demand. 395 00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:41,080 Speaker 1: So on the whole yes, I do expect another basis 396 00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:45,320 Speaker 1: points at the February first meeting, perhaps another basis points thereafter, 397 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:49,359 Speaker 1: but that policy rate five five and a quarter percent 398 00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:52,960 Speaker 1: perhaps is going to be sustained into and I think 399 00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:55,560 Speaker 1: that's where markets are going to be very surprised that 400 00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:58,280 Speaker 1: that could mean some additional upside for the dollar in 401 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:02,119 Speaker 1: the new term, but then also again more financial distress 402 00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:05,960 Speaker 1: among speculative grade borrowers as they're forced to pay these 403 00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:09,840 Speaker 1: higher floating rate interest costs for for a longer period 404 00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:12,600 Speaker 1: than they anticipate. And that's the head of Global Research 405 00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:15,640 Speaker 1: at the Carlisle Group, Jason Thomas, speaking with Bloomberg's David 406 00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:18,680 Speaker 1: Englais and Avon Man.

He's also nominating former executives 667 00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:47,759 Speaker 1: George Barrios and Michelle Wilson to the board and is 668 00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:52,239 Speaker 1: seeking a strategic review of the business. The executive who 669 00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:55,080 Speaker 1: ran the wrestling Giant for decades, said that with its 670 00:37:55,120 --> 00:37:58,680 Speaker 1: TV rights coming up for renewal. It's a good time 671 00:37:58,719 --> 00:38:02,760 Speaker 1: to review the company options in New York. Charlie Pellette 672 00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:06,800 Speaker 1: bloom Bird Daybreak, Thank you Well, here's an ominous sign 673 00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:10,560 Speaker 1: for consumers. More Americans are turning to credit cards to 674 00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:14,239 Speaker 1: pay everyday expenses. According to the Census Bureau, more than 675 00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:17,719 Speaker 1: thirty five of households use credit cards or loans in 676 00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:21,759 Speaker 1: December to cover spending needs. That's up from reading just 677 00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:24,600 Speaker 1: eighteen months ago. It's a sign that households hit hard 678 00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:28,080 Speaker 1: by inflation or finding their regular income is not enough 679 00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:30,960 Speaker 1: to make ends meet. Meanwhile, while we wait for the 680 00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:33,840 Speaker 1: December jobs report, it turns out a typical nine to 681 00:38:33,960 --> 00:38:37,399 Speaker 1: five job is not so typical anymore. New data from 682 00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:41,400 Speaker 1: the International Labor Organization shows more than half the global 683 00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:45,360 Speaker 1: workforce either works too much or too little. The report 684 00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:48,279 Speaker 1: shows the average work week runs about forty three point 685 00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:50,440 Speaker 1: nine hours. At the same time, about a third of 686 00:38:50,480 --> 00:38:53,440 Speaker 1: employees have a work week of more than forty eight hours. 687 00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:56,720 Speaker 1: Well a fifth work part time or less than thirty 688 00:38:56,800 --> 00:39:01,400 Speaker 1: five hours a week. Nathan a very nicely for what 689 00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:04,200 Speaker 1: we're going to get when it comes to the health 690 00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:07,040 Speaker 1: of the overall labor market. We're about to get our 691 00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:11,719 Speaker 1: final glimpse at what jobs look like in two and 692 00:39:11,760 --> 00:39:15,879 Speaker 1: the Labor Department releases December payrolls in just about oh 693 00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:19,760 Speaker 1: two hours and forty five minutes now springing. Drew Maddis, 694 00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:24,640 Speaker 1: chief market strategist at Medlife Investment Management, Drew, good morning. 695 00:39:25,080 --> 00:39:28,879 Speaker 1: What's the trajectory you see for job growth? Well, I'm 696 00:39:28,920 --> 00:39:30,960 Speaker 1: not too far off from where the consensus is for 697 00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:33,960 Speaker 1: this month's job growth numbers, but I think you know 698 00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:37,399 Speaker 1: the most that story is the perfect story for where 699 00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:40,680 Speaker 1: I think the important area to look at lies, which 700 00:39:40,760 --> 00:39:43,080 Speaker 1: is how much are these people who are hired being 701 00:39:43,680 --> 00:39:47,879 Speaker 1: being worked? Right? Um, what we really what I'm really 702 00:39:48,239 --> 00:39:51,200 Speaker 1: cautious about looking at is that hours work number because 703 00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:53,600 Speaker 1: I think what may be happening is firms are hiring 704 00:39:53,719 --> 00:39:57,839 Speaker 1: people that maybe they don't necessarily need because it's been 705 00:39:57,880 --> 00:40:00,280 Speaker 1: so difficult to hire people for such a long period 706 00:40:00,320 --> 00:40:04,239 Speaker 1: of time. So when someone becomes available, they hire them, uh, 707 00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:06,120 Speaker 1: and then they don't work them as much as as 708 00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:08,600 Speaker 1: maybe they would work other workers, and that work week 709 00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:11,560 Speaker 1: number begins to decline. And I think that's what we're 710 00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:14,000 Speaker 1: likely to see this this month, is that we'll get 711 00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:16,640 Speaker 1: a pretty good jobs number, but maybe the work week 712 00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:18,520 Speaker 1: is a little on the soft side. Not At the 713 00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:22,799 Speaker 1: same time, we keep hearing drew about pretty high profile 714 00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:27,759 Speaker 1: job cuts in the financial sector the tech sector as well, 715 00:40:27,960 --> 00:40:31,000 Speaker 1: and it's starting to raise the question about whether some 716 00:40:31,120 --> 00:40:33,920 Speaker 1: of those laid off workers are going to be matched 717 00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:37,600 Speaker 1: into the jobs that are still available. Are we still 718 00:40:38,080 --> 00:40:41,279 Speaker 1: expecting to see uh, something of a mismatch there when 719 00:40:41,320 --> 00:40:47,319 Speaker 1: it comes to job openings and labor force participation. Well, 720 00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:50,160 Speaker 1: I think you might. And I also think that, you know, 721 00:40:50,239 --> 00:40:52,640 Speaker 1: one of the things to look at, particularly in a 722 00:40:52,719 --> 00:40:56,239 Speaker 1: December payroll number, is you don't really want to look 723 00:40:56,280 --> 00:40:58,560 Speaker 1: too hard at retail and you don't really want to 724 00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:01,040 Speaker 1: look too hard at things like struction, right because there's 725 00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:02,719 Speaker 1: not a lot of construction going on in the winter. 726 00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:06,719 Speaker 1: Um And so you you really I mean, not that 727 00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:09,680 Speaker 1: there's got to be a core to every economics report 728 00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:12,239 Speaker 1: out there, but you do want to exclude the ones 729 00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:14,280 Speaker 1: that are that are more likely to be a seasonal 730 00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:17,160 Speaker 1: factor adjustment rather than kind of a true job gain, 731 00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:20,799 Speaker 1: um And and look beyond that to kind of things 732 00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:24,400 Speaker 1: like the manufacturing sector and likewise to see what the 733 00:41:24,480 --> 00:41:26,640 Speaker 1: job growth looks like. And I think they're the job 734 00:41:26,680 --> 00:41:29,600 Speaker 1: growth will be okay. Um, where I think it will 735 00:41:29,640 --> 00:41:32,640 Speaker 1: turn is actually next next quarter, because a lot of 736 00:41:32,680 --> 00:41:36,040 Speaker 1: companies do planning processes in the fourth quarter and then 737 00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:39,040 Speaker 1: execute on them in the first quarter. And that includes 738 00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:44,520 Speaker 1: planning for things like jobs. It sounds like we may 739 00:41:44,520 --> 00:41:47,120 Speaker 1: have lost you their jury. You still with us? I 740 00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:51,120 Speaker 1: am okay, can you hear me? It includes planning for 741 00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:53,759 Speaker 1: things like jobs, job cuts, whether or not they're going 742 00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:57,080 Speaker 1: to hire people. Um. You know. So the plan that 743 00:41:57,120 --> 00:41:59,600 Speaker 1: they're going to execute their putting in place now the 744 00:41:59,840 --> 00:42:02,520 Speaker 1: x acute or they put in place in the fourth quarter, 745 00:42:02,640 --> 00:42:05,000 Speaker 1: and they'll executed over the course of the next year. 746 00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:06,960 Speaker 1: And that means if there's gonna be a turn in 747 00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:10,120 Speaker 1: the jobs numbers, it's gonna come with the reports out 748 00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:12,320 Speaker 1: and let's say March and April that come out for 749 00:42:12,480 --> 00:42:15,360 Speaker 1: February and March. Okay, So when we start start to 750 00:42:15,400 --> 00:42:19,400 Speaker 1: see that execution take place, what's the implication on what 751 00:42:19,520 --> 00:42:22,719 Speaker 1: we could see in terms of wage growth? Are we 752 00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:24,880 Speaker 1: still expecting that we're going to see the kind of 753 00:42:24,960 --> 00:42:27,960 Speaker 1: wage pressures that the FED doesn't want to see and 754 00:42:28,040 --> 00:42:32,440 Speaker 1: they could potentially keep rates moving higher. Well, yes, I 755 00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:35,080 Speaker 1: think you know that the prospects for decent wage games 756 00:42:35,160 --> 00:42:38,160 Speaker 1: are likely, but you know, they are heavily concentrated in 757 00:42:38,239 --> 00:42:41,239 Speaker 1: kind of lower wage industry. So you know, as we 758 00:42:41,360 --> 00:42:43,600 Speaker 1: start the new year, we're gonna see things like new 759 00:42:43,640 --> 00:42:46,120 Speaker 1: minimum wages going you know, minimum wages going up in 760 00:42:46,120 --> 00:42:48,640 Speaker 1: a number of states. That will have an effect on things. 761 00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:51,040 Speaker 1: And we also have to bear in mind, you know, 762 00:42:51,120 --> 00:42:52,920 Speaker 1: once again, a lot of the wage games are not 763 00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:55,720 Speaker 1: coming from kind of like the middle upper middle class, 764 00:42:55,760 --> 00:42:58,320 Speaker 1: are coming from workers who are working closer to the 765 00:42:58,400 --> 00:43:01,480 Speaker 1: minimum wage boundary. Uh. And while that may be a 766 00:43:01,560 --> 00:43:05,160 Speaker 1: good thing from a societal standpoint, um, it's important to 767 00:43:05,239 --> 00:43:07,279 Speaker 1: bear in mind it's not really doing a lot for 768 00:43:07,400 --> 00:43:10,240 Speaker 1: kind of the higher income tears that are also struggling 769 00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:12,839 Speaker 1: with inflation in order to maintain their center of living. 770 00:43:14,160 --> 00:43:16,759 Speaker 1: Is there a point that the unemployment rate needs to 771 00:43:16,840 --> 00:43:19,720 Speaker 1: get to an order for the FED to consider pivoting. 772 00:43:19,800 --> 00:43:23,200 Speaker 1: Is there a correlation there. I'm not sure if there's 773 00:43:23,200 --> 00:43:25,680 Speaker 1: a correlation, but they basically pointed to it in their 774 00:43:25,760 --> 00:43:30,360 Speaker 1: last set of economic projections. Um, well, let let me 775 00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:33,560 Speaker 1: turn it around. There's a level of inflation they'll tolerate 776 00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:37,439 Speaker 1: before they start cutting interest rates. Um, And that level 777 00:43:37,560 --> 00:43:40,120 Speaker 1: was not two percent you know, in the summary of 778 00:43:40,160 --> 00:43:43,359 Speaker 1: economic projections, they're cutting interest rates when inflation is still 779 00:43:43,640 --> 00:43:46,680 Speaker 1: well above two percent UM, and so that tells you 780 00:43:46,840 --> 00:43:50,400 Speaker 1: that the toleration level, given their unemployment forecasts in the 781 00:43:50,480 --> 00:43:54,880 Speaker 1: mid fours, is probably more predicated on how fast unemployment 782 00:43:54,960 --> 00:43:59,600 Speaker 1: moves rather than a than a point level. Our last 783 00:43:59,640 --> 00:44:03,080 Speaker 1: thirty seconds here, Drew, is the December report a pivot 784 00:44:03,120 --> 00:44:05,759 Speaker 1: point for the Fed when it comes to deciding what 785 00:44:06,080 --> 00:44:08,839 Speaker 1: level of an interest rate hike we could see next month. 786 00:44:10,280 --> 00:44:12,319 Speaker 1: It's one of the last data points, So it's gonna 787 00:44:12,320 --> 00:44:15,800 Speaker 1: be this and the inflation numbers UM and uh, you know, 788 00:44:15,920 --> 00:44:19,120 Speaker 1: maybe even the retail sales numbers, because you know, we 789 00:44:19,440 --> 00:44:22,840 Speaker 1: keep waiting for the consumer to drop off. Data dependence 790 00:44:23,160 --> 00:44:26,320 Speaker 1: always the way for this Federal Reserve.

Have you heard of 831 00:46:47,840 --> 00:46:51,719 Speaker 1: anything like this at any other law firm. No, I've 832 00:46:51,800 --> 00:46:55,680 Speaker 1: handled trade secrets litigation cases, not in the law firm 833 00:46:55,760 --> 00:46:58,800 Speaker 1: context with this kind of thing happened, uh to scruntled 834 00:46:58,840 --> 00:47:01,520 Speaker 1: employee goes to work for a competitor, But I've never 835 00:47:01,600 --> 00:47:05,160 Speaker 1: read such a high level employee of a big offer 836 00:47:05,200 --> 00:47:08,880 Speaker 1: of doing this. In the complaint, Proskauer calls him a 837 00:47:09,080 --> 00:47:14,439 Speaker 1: crafty plotter and describes his steel list. From your look 838 00:47:14,520 --> 00:47:19,160 Speaker 1: at it, has he allegedly taken information that's very important 839 00:47:19,280 --> 00:47:23,720 Speaker 1: to the firm. That would be something considered like trade secrets. Absolutely, 840 00:47:24,080 --> 00:47:26,640 Speaker 1: it's one thing for an employee to leave one firm 841 00:47:26,680 --> 00:47:30,120 Speaker 1: and work for another. Things that reside in an employee's 842 00:47:30,160 --> 00:47:33,360 Speaker 1: head stay in his head, and that's not a protectable 843 00:47:33,440 --> 00:47:36,000 Speaker 1: trade secret. But when you take a thumb drive and 844 00:47:36,120 --> 00:47:42,080 Speaker 1: you bypass security and you download compensation of various partners 845 00:47:42,239 --> 00:47:46,080 Speaker 1: or how various practice areas are doing within a firm, 846 00:47:46,360 --> 00:47:49,799 Speaker 1: you're giving a playbook to a competitor who could use 847 00:47:49,920 --> 00:47:53,920 Speaker 1: that to strategize how to pick off or take practice 848 00:47:54,000 --> 00:47:57,799 Speaker 1: areas clients or partners or associates from a competing offer. 849 00:47:58,239 --> 00:48:01,839 Speaker 1: Can you tell from the papers if any client information 850 00:48:02,040 --> 00:48:06,080 Speaker 1: was accessed. It's pretty clear that client information was not access. 851 00:48:06,320 --> 00:48:08,520 Speaker 1: But I'll tell you one thing that I found interesting. 852 00:48:08,719 --> 00:48:12,240 Speaker 1: There's a suggestion there are an accusation that he lifted 853 00:48:12,239 --> 00:48:15,560 Speaker 1: a litigation hold and caused thousands of his emails to 854 00:48:15,600 --> 00:48:19,080 Speaker 1: be deleted, and if true, there may be some loss 855 00:48:19,200 --> 00:48:23,600 Speaker 1: there of client related data. So forgetting what he put 856 00:48:23,640 --> 00:48:26,200 Speaker 1: in his pocket, in terms of what the firm lost 857 00:48:26,400 --> 00:48:29,760 Speaker 1: access to, there's a lot of the emails with pending 858 00:48:29,880 --> 00:48:32,800 Speaker 1: litigation that will never see the light of day because 859 00:48:32,800 --> 00:48:36,440 Speaker 1: of what this guy did. Prostauer is this billion dollar 860 00:48:36,560 --> 00:48:39,160 Speaker 1: law firm, and you know it's got a great name, 861 00:48:39,200 --> 00:48:41,040 Speaker 1: and what kind of a hit does it take to 862 00:48:41,160 --> 00:48:45,040 Speaker 1: its reputation from something like this. Well, think about this, 863 00:48:45,320 --> 00:48:48,120 Speaker 1: if you're a client and your rely on this law 864 00:48:48,239 --> 00:48:51,000 Speaker 1: firm to protect your secrets. If they can't keep their 865 00:48:51,040 --> 00:48:53,600 Speaker 1: own house in order and keep their own secret secret, 866 00:48:53,760 --> 00:48:58,200 Speaker 1: and one major security measure can be overturned with one 867 00:48:58,320 --> 00:49:01,520 Speaker 1: person directive to an I T person, claients might become 868 00:49:01,760 --> 00:49:06,440 Speaker 1: doubtful that firm's ability to safegard client data, and employees 869 00:49:06,560 --> 00:49:09,719 Speaker 1: and partners of that firm may have concerned about the 870 00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:13,239 Speaker 1: leadership and security of their files and whether or not 871 00:49:13,360 --> 00:49:16,879 Speaker 1: their houses being under an appropriate Fashion.
