If there's so 11 00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:44,080 Speaker 3: many subsets, do you have to go down to each 12 00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:46,800 Speaker 3: subset to try to peace out a guestimate? 13 00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:47,840 Speaker 2: Yeah. 14 00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:51,479 Speaker 4: I mean we've always had a granular view of forecasting inflation, 15 00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:55,760 Speaker 4: but it has gotten more granular given what's happening with tariffs, 16 00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:59,520 Speaker 4: and of course we're looking at the impact of commodities prices. 17 00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:03,960 Speaker 4: We have other idiosyncratic factors like what's happening with beef shortages. 18 00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:06,560 Speaker 4: So there are a lot of cross currents going on 19 00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:07,920 Speaker 4: in this inflation. 20 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:11,520 Speaker 3: It's the biggest weight or like everybody's sucking use cars. 21 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,360 Speaker 3: Don't tell me use cars as a big weight, is it? 22 00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:16,560 Speaker 2: It's not a big weight real estate. It's really important. 23 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:19,039 Speaker 4: And in fact, we're seeing new tenant rent in the 24 00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:22,360 Speaker 4: New Tenant Rent Index starting to rise. We're seeing people 25 00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:25,800 Speaker 4: preferring to rent rather than own, so new households that 26 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:29,800 Speaker 4: are forming are renting, and that's pushing up rental prices 27 00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:32,199 Speaker 4: in the New Tenant Rent Index. We're going to see 28 00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:34,600 Speaker 4: that feed through to all the components of the CPI 29 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:36,040 Speaker 4: in the coming months. 30 00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:40,959 Speaker 5: If inflation is creeping up, that's kind of a tough 31 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:43,039 Speaker 5: environment for the FED to cut rates, isn't it. 32 00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:46,040 Speaker 4: I mean, creeping or shooting is Both of them are tough, right, 33 00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:49,200 Speaker 4: But I think what makes it especially tough, right is 34 00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:53,559 Speaker 4: that services inflation is elevated and sticky. It came down 35 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:56,840 Speaker 4: and then it sort of stalled out. Meanwhile, goods prices 36 00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 4: were close to flat or zero. That's not the case. 37 00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:03,600 Speaker 4: Goods prices are rising at zero point seven percent a 38 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 4: month over month. They're thirty five percent of the index, 39 00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:08,760 Speaker 4: and they're going to keep rising. 40 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:10,000 Speaker 2: And so if. 41 00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:13,519 Speaker 4: Services prices continue to come down, even slowly, you're still 42 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:15,520 Speaker 4: going to see that overall index increased. 43 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:18,080 Speaker 3: So what's your blooded number at EIU out twelve months? 44 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:21,480 Speaker 3: Are you guys two ish three ish high three. 45 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:23,119 Speaker 2: This is a trick. 46 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:26,519 Speaker 4: This is a trick question time, because if we look 47 00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:28,040 Speaker 4: at the you want to look at what the FED 48 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:29,400 Speaker 4: is going to look at, They're going to want to 49 00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 4: look at the three month annualized rate. 50 00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 2: So we expect that to start. 51 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:36,440 Speaker 4: Moditoring in the end of Q two, beginning of Q 52 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:38,639 Speaker 4: three next year, and we expect that to come down 53 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 4: to like a two point three two point one percent. 54 00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 3: Did you say next year next year? Three quarters out, 55 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:45,119 Speaker 3: four quarters out? 56 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:47,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, it's going to take some time. 57 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:49,399 Speaker 3: Are looking for results September seventeen. 58 00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:50,160 Speaker 2: Oh if we. 59 00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:56,240 Speaker 5: So, I mean again that that's inflation here. How about 60 00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:58,960 Speaker 5: kind of the labor market? I mean, that's another thing 61 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,679 Speaker 5: that I think people feel comfortable with where kind of 62 00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:02,240 Speaker 5: we are here. 63 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 6: But they say, well, if you look under the hood, 64 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:05,600 Speaker 6: some of the trends there might be going the other 65 00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 6: way here. 66 00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:08,680 Speaker 4: Well, we've been concerned about the under the hood since 67 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 4: the start of the year, and it's the under the 68 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:14,160 Speaker 4: hood that has made us have our call that we 69 00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:17,640 Speaker 4: think the FED is going to cut, and we think 70 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:19,480 Speaker 4: they're going to cut in September. We think there's a 71 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 4: good chance they get in two more cuts before the 72 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 4: end of the year. 73 00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:22,840 Speaker 2: Yep. 74 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,360 Speaker 3: Do you think the labor market is going to This 75 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,799 Speaker 3: is like, I'm I got a textbook. I got Rick 76 00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:31,799 Speaker 3: Michigan's textbook at CLUBB. You pick a constant, you pick 77 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,760 Speaker 3: the textbook. You're telling me they're going to cut interest 78 00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:37,840 Speaker 3: rates with a three point x percent inflation. 79 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:40,840 Speaker 4: Well, I'm going to chuse Stan Fisher as you you 80 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 4: talked about him earlier this morning. 81 00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 2: And here's the thing. 82 00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:48,280 Speaker 4: We know that the tariff inflation impact is going to 83 00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:53,640 Speaker 4: be dare I say the word transitory. But the but 84 00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 4: the issue is what is happening with that services inflation? 85 00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 4: And there are compliments of service in this inflation, like 86 00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 4: transfer in ortation where we're seeing falling demand. 87 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 3: Uh. 88 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 4: And the real question is how much can the consumer 89 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:07,400 Speaker 4: take in terms of say auto inflation. 90 00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 3: We go to surveillance transitory correspondent Lisa Matteo. Right now, 91 00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:14,119 Speaker 3: how's that transitory inflation at Costco? 92 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 6: Lisa, it's not doing so well? 93 00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:20,479 Speaker 3: So well on a day to day constance hunter like 94 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:23,880 Speaker 3: in consumption, I just don't see transitory. 95 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:27,160 Speaker 4: Well, it's well, it's present, But the question is is 96 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:27,920 Speaker 4: it is it? 97 00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 2: Is it going to last for several years? 98 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 4: It seems unlikely it will last for several years because 99 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:37,159 Speaker 4: the economy is weakening under the hood. 100 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:40,240 Speaker 3: I got, I got a hate letter yesterday. Paul doesn't 101 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:42,400 Speaker 3: know this. Folks, Lisa and Paul get the love notes. 102 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:45,440 Speaker 3: Michael Byrn, I get all that hate mail constance. It 103 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:48,280 Speaker 3: was a hate mail against you and all the others. 104 00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:54,480 Speaker 3: The audience detests when smart people like you say inflation 105 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:57,359 Speaker 3: is a one off and after the lift and inflation 106 00:04:58,000 --> 00:04:59,239 Speaker 3: will all be okay. 107 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 4: I didn't it will We'll be okay. A lot say well, 108 00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:04,360 Speaker 4: we'll be okay. It is a tax on the consumer. 109 00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:09,159 Speaker 4: It helps to push growth lower. It is painful for households. 110 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:13,000 Speaker 4: It makes it harder for people to afford basic necessities. 111 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:14,320 Speaker 2: Let's let alone. 112 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 4: Some of the nice to have that they want to 113 00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:19,160 Speaker 4: spend money on. It's very, very challenging. 114 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:21,360 Speaker 3: So you're saying the fetia cut even if we get 115 00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:22,600 Speaker 3: a rising inflation rate. 116 00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:25,360 Speaker 4: The fetcha cut if we get a rising inflation rate 117 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:30,000 Speaker 4: and continued confirmation the labor market is weaking, weakening. They 118 00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:32,920 Speaker 4: have to see that labor market weakening cut. 119 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 3: I agree, it's back to the labor market. 120 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:37,800 Speaker 6: Poll retail sales on Friday, How do you care that 121 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:39,920 Speaker 6: the consumer is doing. 122 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:41,719 Speaker 2: Out there, Well, it depends on what you're buying. 123 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:44,000 Speaker 4: But you're starting to see you're starting to see an 124 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:47,920 Speaker 4: impact across the board. You're seeing actually a pullback and 125 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:51,159 Speaker 4: in some of the revenge spending out of the pandemic. 126 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:56,160 Speaker 4: Right there're still seemingly endless spending on things like leisure 127 00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:58,360 Speaker 4: and hospitality that is coming down. 128 00:05:58,400 --> 00:05:59,280 Speaker 2: So we expect. 129 00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 4: Restaurants to solve, and a little bit. Home furnishings is weak. Obviously, 130 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 4: we have a really troubled and problematic housing market, so 131 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:11,279 Speaker 4: we're not getting the lift from growth from a from 132 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:15,119 Speaker 4: a growing housing market, so we're expecting home furnishings. 133 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:15,359 Speaker 2: To be soft. 134 00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:18,680 Speaker 4: So we are we are looking for that softness under 135 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:20,680 Speaker 4: the hood to come through. Now we have to point 136 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:23,880 Speaker 4: out the juxtaposition here is everything that's happening in tech 137 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:27,359 Speaker 4: and AI. We are seeing continuing to see a boom 138 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:30,120 Speaker 4: in spending there and that's where you get the lift 139 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:32,240 Speaker 4: in in capital investment. 140 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:35,240 Speaker 3: But the other investment out there, I mean, I mean 141 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:38,080 Speaker 3: I thought of this earlier, folks, we didn't bring it 142 00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 3: up on air. Let's do it business investment away from technology, 143 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:47,640 Speaker 3: business investment. How do you characterize that grim. 144 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:51,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's zero, it's negative, negative, it's declining, declining, and 145 00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:53,919 Speaker 4: we think and we think that's going to continue. And 146 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 4: and our forecast at the beginning of the year sort 147 00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:58,920 Speaker 4: of cast us back to March when we were looking 148 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:03,000 Speaker 4: at the rising level of uncertainty, was that this level 149 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:07,360 Speaker 4: of uncertainty corresponds to business paralysis. We do not see 150 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:11,800 Speaker 4: investment growing strongly when we have this level of uncertainty, 151 00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:14,480 Speaker 4: because businesses are like, I'll just just wait a quarter, 152 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:16,080 Speaker 4: I'll wait till I get more clarity. 153 00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:17,560 Speaker 2: Right, I'm not going to Why would I. 154 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:19,600 Speaker 4: Drive down the road at ninety miles an hour when 155 00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 4: it's really foggy outside, I'll go forty five instead. 156 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:23,880 Speaker 6: Has that eased up a little bit in the last 157 00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 6: couple of months as well? 158 00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:28,440 Speaker 4: I recognize that, Well, it's eased up, but we're still 159 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 4: significantly above previous spikes and of course above previous stasis levels. 160 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:37,680 Speaker 3: So what's your number or in a headline, CPI, are 161 00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:42,480 Speaker 3: you on survey? Are you disinflating or increased inflation? 162 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:45,360 Speaker 4: Well, we're looking at zero point three percent month over 163 00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:48,240 Speaker 4: month and about two point eight on a year every year. 164 00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:52,080 Speaker 3: Two point eight year every year that's sort of where 165 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 3: we are. Well. CPI month over month is zero point 166 00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:57,760 Speaker 3: two is a survey, So you're a tick above. 167 00:07:57,840 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 2: I'm a tick above. 168 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:00,640 Speaker 3: Every little tick matters right well, and. 169 00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:02,760 Speaker 2: It matters especially for that annualized rate. 170 00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:05,760 Speaker 4: And it also matters where if people are feeling prices 171 00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:09,120 Speaker 4: go up in things that they purchase frequently, it takes 172 00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:11,440 Speaker 4: it psychologically. That takes a bigger bite out. 173 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:13,400 Speaker 3: So what we have here at Bloomberg, just to give 174 00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:16,239 Speaker 3: you a snapshot of is the constance one Hunter twelve 175 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:20,920 Speaker 3: seconds to adjust to this. But what we have here 176 00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:23,520 Speaker 3: is the data that we all talk about in the media. 177 00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:26,760 Speaker 3: And then Michael McDonough and our team develop off the 178 00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:33,120 Speaker 3: Bureau of Labor Statistics a wonderfully colored chart which tells 179 00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:37,439 Speaker 3: a story. And I have core goods instantly here from 180 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 3: the report. It is zero point one point five to one. 181 00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:43,200 Speaker 3: I have no idea what that number means other than 182 00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:47,880 Speaker 3: constance hunter. I think I'm seeing a continuing trend of 183 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:50,400 Speaker 3: core goods inflation. 184 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:53,160 Speaker 4: Ron yep, and we're seeing it in autos. So if 185 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 4: we look down in the detail, use cars and trucks 186 00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:58,280 Speaker 4: are now row zero point five percent month of a 187 00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 4: month four point eight percent year over year. And like 188 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:04,640 Speaker 4: I said, services is sticky, right, we have services less 189 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:07,840 Speaker 4: energy services at zero point four percent month over month, 190 00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:11,160 Speaker 4: three point six percent year over year. And with those 191 00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 4: sticky services, I will have to say it's going to 192 00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 4: be challenging for the FED cut. We're going to have 193 00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:19,720 Speaker 4: to see really weak other data in the form of 194 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:20,880 Speaker 4: jobs and retail sales. 195 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:23,240 Speaker 3: Should we say what the market's doing? Paul Sure? I 196 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:25,880 Speaker 3: think we should five basis points in a lower yield 197 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:28,080 Speaker 3: on a two year yield, the ten year yield and 198 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:31,200 Speaker 3: three basis points the equity markets lived from flat up 199 00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 3: to futures up twenty eight and the vicks in almost 200 00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:36,319 Speaker 3: to stick fifteen point four eight punk. 201 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:36,840 Speaker 7: Yeah. 202 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:39,600 Speaker 5: The three point one percent annual increase in the core 203 00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 5: CPI takes that measure back to the height since February. 204 00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:46,520 Speaker 5: I'm looking at the Bloomberg Live top. 205 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 3: Live can to list them there stand right on. 206 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:50,560 Speaker 6: Top of that, I mean the top like these blogs. 207 00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 6: These guys are all over it. 208 00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 3: It's awesome now Chris and the entered team. 209 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:54,839 Speaker 7: Yeah, veryxy so. 210 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 5: Wh sp fiatures up twenty four, Dow up one ninety, 211 00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:00,760 Speaker 5: and NASHTAC up one hundred and five points, it's four 212 00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:01,880 Speaker 5: tens to one percent. 213 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:04,240 Speaker 6: So certainly a move there constance. 214 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:07,840 Speaker 5: I mean, you know, it's calling into question that two 215 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:11,960 Speaker 5: percent ish kind of target that the FED has for inflation, 216 00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:15,360 Speaker 5: whether it's core PCE or however you want to define it. 217 00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:18,079 Speaker 5: Is that a realistic goal these days in this economy. 218 00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 6: I just don't. A. 219 00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:21,520 Speaker 5: I'm not sure whether they're fixated on the number. B. 220 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 5: I'm not sure how we get there. 221 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:25,560 Speaker 2: Well, should I answer the easier questions? 222 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:26,319 Speaker 7: First? 223 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:30,200 Speaker 4: The reason they're the reason that it's two percent is 224 00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:33,000 Speaker 4: because you need to have some inflation to grease the 225 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:35,959 Speaker 4: wheels of growth, right, you don't you don't want to 226 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:38,840 Speaker 4: tip into disinflation or deflation. On the other hand, you 227 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:41,800 Speaker 4: don't want inflation to be a factor in businesses making 228 00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:44,640 Speaker 4: their decisions. And the problem with the level we have 229 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:47,760 Speaker 4: now is it is a factor in businesses making their decisions, 230 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:51,000 Speaker 4: and it's a factor in consumers making their decisions. And 231 00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:53,839 Speaker 4: so that's where it becomes really challenging for the FED. 232 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:57,079 Speaker 4: On the other hand, we see this as attacks on 233 00:10:57,160 --> 00:11:01,200 Speaker 4: the economy. It in itself is going to slow growth 234 00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:05,079 Speaker 4: in addition to the slowness that we see under the hood, 235 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:08,439 Speaker 4: and so It really just depends on the timing of 236 00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:11,880 Speaker 4: how quickly the labor market deteriorates and whether or not 237 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 4: the FED has space to act. 238 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 5: Yeah, just an extraordinary here so again kind of the CPI, Right, Yeah, 239 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 5: I gave you your point two percent, Tom, I kind 240 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 5: of spot on line. I mean that core that ex 241 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,120 Speaker 5: food and energy you're on your one percent is kind 242 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:28,280 Speaker 5: of getting some play, folks. 243 00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:34,080 Speaker 3: Here's here's the core CPI three monthly annualized is published 244 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 3: by bl S. This is from April two point one. 245 00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:41,520 Speaker 3: It went down to one point seven, it went up 246 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:44,719 Speaker 3: to two point four, and now the three month annualized 247 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 3: is up to two point eight. Every textbook I have, 248 00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:52,520 Speaker 3: Constance Hunder tells me it's really hard to cut rates 249 00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:57,400 Speaker 3: given a three month trend of the three month annualized statistic. 250 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:00,600 Speaker 4: Right, And if you look at the Fed's work on this, 251 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:03,400 Speaker 4: going back to the previous time that we raised traffs 252 00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:07,760 Speaker 4: admittedly by substantially less, right, it was that they should 253 00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:11,360 Speaker 4: look through this. Now the question is does a larger 254 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:14,200 Speaker 4: teriff rate warrant the same look through. I think the 255 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:16,439 Speaker 4: FED has telegraphed to us that they think it doesn't, 256 00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:19,000 Speaker 4: But does it. 257 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:21,839 Speaker 2: Warrant zero look through that also. 258 00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:23,440 Speaker 4: They have they have seem to have telegraphed that they 259 00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:25,520 Speaker 4: think it doesn't warrant zero look through. If you look 260 00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 4: at the dot plot, if you look at some of 261 00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:29,839 Speaker 4: the things that different FED governors have been saying, whether 262 00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:35,400 Speaker 4: it's Mary Daily, whether it's Neil Kashkari, right, Fed governors 263 00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:38,160 Speaker 4: that FED presidents have been saying, look, we see weakening 264 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:42,400 Speaker 4: under the hood. And remember the FED funds, tart run 265 00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:44,720 Speaker 4: funds right right now is restrictive? Does it need to 266 00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:48,400 Speaker 4: be this restrictive? If they were to cut twice, it's 267 00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:49,320 Speaker 4: still restrictive. 268 00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:52,560 Speaker 3: And this this headline here from Mark Niquet, Thank you 269 00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:56,600 Speaker 3: Mark for this. Just it's amazing. Our Bloomberg team gets 270 00:12:56,720 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 3: us out us core CPI picks up fastest pay since 271 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:04,200 Speaker 3: January on services. Constance Hunter, thank you so much. Just 272 00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:08,520 Speaker 3: brilliant with the EIU. This morning, Rebecca Patterson said time 273 00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:10,800 Speaker 3: you really need to wear makeup? And I said no, 274 00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:13,960 Speaker 3: All our handlers are saying YouTube is We're makeup free 275 00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:16,600 Speaker 3: on YouTube at least I am, So we'll go with that. 276 00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:20,679 Speaker 3: Joining us now is Rebecca Patterson with a Council on 277 00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 3: Foreign Relations and all over our service to best of 278 00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:29,240 Speaker 3: our trust JP Morgan and of course Bridgewater over the years. Rebecca, 279 00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:31,680 Speaker 3: this is the oddest place to be. I'm looking for 280 00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:36,800 Speaker 3: the revisions. I guess if I don't trust BLS, I 281 00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:39,120 Speaker 3: guess I trust the data. I don't have revisions yet 282 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:42,199 Speaker 3: up on the screen. Let's just start with that. Okay, 283 00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 3: the unemployment, right, there's an uproar. We got a new 284 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:48,600 Speaker 3: guy in a hugely controversial Does Rebecca Patterson trust the 285 00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:54,600 Speaker 3: inflation statistics? Yes, that's where you gotta talk more, Lisa, 286 00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:56,800 Speaker 3: tellers talk more over. 287 00:13:56,960 --> 00:14:01,240 Speaker 8: No, I mean, the United States has the best government 288 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:05,439 Speaker 8: data in the world by a lot, and there are 289 00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:10,080 Speaker 8: dedicated civil servants who literally go around the country checking 290 00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:14,240 Speaker 8: prices in every community, of every variable and making sure 291 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 8: the data is as clean and reflective of what's really 292 00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 8: happening as they can. 293 00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 3: My textbooks say, you got to be nuts. You can 294 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:23,960 Speaker 3: cut rates given a two ish three ish three month 295 00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 3: annualize inflation. Do you see any sense of transitory in 296 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:28,840 Speaker 3: these statistics. 297 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:31,920 Speaker 8: I think we're in a new regime for inflation. I 298 00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:35,320 Speaker 8: think we're in a new regime for bond yields. So 299 00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 8: if the economy slows a lot which Constant Constance was 300 00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:42,960 Speaker 8: talking about right before me. If the economy slows enough, 301 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:45,400 Speaker 8: that's going to help pull inflation down. But that's not 302 00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:49,080 Speaker 8: a situation anyone wants, right. Usually you get deflation when 303 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:49,360 Speaker 8: you have. 304 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:50,960 Speaker 3: A deep recession. We don't want that. 305 00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:53,720 Speaker 8: But I think for the Federal Reserve, I was trying 306 00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:55,960 Speaker 8: to look at when is the last time we got 307 00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:59,120 Speaker 8: this rate cuts with inflation above target and the job 308 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:04,520 Speaker 8: market softening? But okay, okay, nineteen ninety five. So at 309 00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:08,640 Speaker 8: the time they did three twenty five basis point insurance cuts, 310 00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:12,480 Speaker 8: inflation was running about two point three, so lower than where. 311 00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:12,880 Speaker 3: We are now. 312 00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:16,479 Speaker 8: The job market was okay, but the economy broadly was softening, 313 00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:18,920 Speaker 8: and so they said we're going to try to massage 314 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:22,120 Speaker 8: this a little bit, and the stock market obviously loved it. 315 00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:24,800 Speaker 8: It was up about fifteen percent over the three cut 316 00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:27,960 Speaker 8: period the SMP, and I think that's probably what we're 317 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:29,720 Speaker 8: going to get this time. I don't know if it's 318 00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:33,920 Speaker 8: one cut, two three. I lean towards less frankly because 319 00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:36,960 Speaker 8: of the inflation risk, and I think they'll they'll do 320 00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:39,320 Speaker 8: a cut in September. It's so priced in it would 321 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:41,800 Speaker 8: be very difficult for the FED to argue against that, 322 00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:45,240 Speaker 8: but Jackson hole later this month. I believe it's August 323 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:48,160 Speaker 8: twenty first, twenty third. That'll give us some more color, 324 00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:50,600 Speaker 8: I think on the sidelines of where they're leaning. 325 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:54,120 Speaker 5: Bloomberg Intelligence US rate strategist Are Jersey out with the 326 00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:57,160 Speaker 5: first take, saying, basically, the CPI print with the CPI 327 00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:00,560 Speaker 5: running at zero point two percent on the headline, suggests 328 00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:05,320 Speaker 5: that the pc print will allow the FED to ease 329 00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:08,320 Speaker 5: in September. So that's the first take from Ira Jersey here. 330 00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:09,320 Speaker 6: What do you make? 331 00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 5: What did you make, Rebecca last week of the labor 332 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:16,880 Speaker 5: data and then the president firing the BLS head and 333 00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:19,240 Speaker 5: all that kind of stuff, What did you make of 334 00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:19,560 Speaker 5: all that? 335 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:24,800 Speaker 8: I mean, is there an opportunity for the government to 336 00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:29,280 Speaker 8: modernize its data collection? Absolutely? But this is not easy, 337 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 8: right if you think about people do analysis of data 338 00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:37,720 Speaker 8: looking back ten twenty fifty in some organizations one hundred years. 339 00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:40,240 Speaker 8: If I suddenly change how I collect the data, I 340 00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:43,120 Speaker 8: have to make sure that new methodology doesn't screw up 341 00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:45,440 Speaker 8: how I look at the old data. Right, we don't 342 00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:48,359 Speaker 8: want apples and oranges. So it's actually a very difficult 343 00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:51,440 Speaker 8: process to make these changes, and you. 344 00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:52,760 Speaker 6: Need resources to do that. 345 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:56,000 Speaker 8: The government has cut the budget for the BLS the 346 00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:58,880 Speaker 8: Bureau of Labor Statistics, so they have fewer resources, not 347 00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:03,000 Speaker 8: more to this modernization. But I do think they would 348 00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:05,880 Speaker 8: agree that this is the direction they should go. Try 349 00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:07,880 Speaker 8: to see what tools are out there they can use 350 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:10,440 Speaker 8: to include in this process to make sure the data 351 00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:14,040 Speaker 8: is as relevant and reflective of the economy as possible. 352 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:17,440 Speaker 8: Firing the head of the BLS I think was performative 353 00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:20,600 Speaker 8: and really a shame. I think at the margin, it's 354 00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:23,520 Speaker 8: one more small nail in the coffin of credibility of 355 00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:24,600 Speaker 8: US institutions. 356 00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:26,320 Speaker 3: Mckey's going to be with a cerin a bit, but 357 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:29,160 Speaker 3: let's start with you, Rebecca. My biggest problem with us. 358 00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:32,440 Speaker 3: You and I've talked about this before as we set up, 359 00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:34,400 Speaker 3: and I'm not going to blame ail in green Span. 360 00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:36,040 Speaker 3: I'm going to think it's going to come on behind 361 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:39,600 Speaker 3: green Span. This idea that if we cut rates, once 362 00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:43,480 Speaker 3: we've established a new vector, a new trend of cutting rates, 363 00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:47,200 Speaker 3: why can't they come out, given the mess we're in, 364 00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:51,639 Speaker 3: whatever anybody's politics, and say we're going to do a 365 00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:56,080 Speaker 3: one off, twenty five beep cut. Why can't we do that. 366 00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:59,159 Speaker 8: I think that's what they'll try to condition the market 367 00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:02,959 Speaker 8: towards that we felt there was room to make this 368 00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:05,320 Speaker 8: one insurance cut, and then we're going to continue to 369 00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:08,520 Speaker 8: be data dependent and see what's needed. The job data 370 00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:11,440 Speaker 8: is really tough. I was just looking before I came 371 00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:13,720 Speaker 8: in this morning. On one hand, you have the small 372 00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:16,880 Speaker 8: business sentiment survey this morning. Small business is a huge 373 00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:20,880 Speaker 8: part of the labor market. Confidence improved in July after 374 00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:25,000 Speaker 8: the big, beautiful fiscal stimulus bill was passed, but uncertainties high. 375 00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:28,920 Speaker 8: You get Challenger in Gray showing layoffs year on year 376 00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:32,280 Speaker 8: the oh sorry, year to date, the highest since twenty twenty. 377 00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 8: But we know a lot of layoffs are very specific 378 00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:41,119 Speaker 8: federal government technology. So you can easily paint bullish and 379 00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:44,880 Speaker 8: not bullish, but okay pictures of the labor market and bearish, 380 00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:47,679 Speaker 8: and I feel like right now, depending on where you 381 00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:50,600 Speaker 8: sit in the FED, you can select data to have 382 00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:52,560 Speaker 8: a reasonable argument for your view. 383 00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:57,200 Speaker 3: Are the separations in America? I mean, I think ludite 384 00:18:57,320 --> 00:19:01,399 Speaker 3: nineteenth century, I mean book where we are is a 385 00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:07,159 Speaker 3: nation and we're almost needing to prescribe rather two or 386 00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 3: three FED policies. How can they do an aggregate FED policy, Paul, 387 00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:17,120 Speaker 3: to help the users of chat GBT exactly and perplexity 388 00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:20,119 Speaker 3: and people flat on their back and des moines, I 389 00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:20,919 Speaker 3: still get it. 390 00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:24,200 Speaker 8: Think about Europe, right, you have a central bank governor 391 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:26,400 Speaker 8: from Italy who's going to have a very different view 392 00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:28,520 Speaker 8: than the central bank governor from Are we. 393 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:30,919 Speaker 3: Different, brilliant, Are we any different on that? 394 00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:31,679 Speaker 7: No, we're not. 395 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:33,600 Speaker 8: And that's part of the reason the FED was set 396 00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:35,920 Speaker 8: up the way it was to have a representative from 397 00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:39,960 Speaker 8: Kansas City and one from Texas and one from San Francisco, 398 00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:43,320 Speaker 8: so we represent the different economies within the US and 399 00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:46,000 Speaker 8: ideally they can debate and come up to an aggregate 400 00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:49,199 Speaker 8: view that's not perfect for any given region, but is 401 00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:52,520 Speaker 8: optimal for the economy. That's that's the goal, and that's 402 00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:54,400 Speaker 8: why they're set up that way, and honestly, I don't 403 00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:55,560 Speaker 8: know a better way to do it. 404 00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:58,320 Speaker 6: A surprised at the stock market keeps seeing all time 405 00:19:58,359 --> 00:19:59,120 Speaker 6: hunts every day. 406 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:03,960 Speaker 8: No, it's oh concentrated in tech, and my perception is 407 00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:07,080 Speaker 8: that there is a lot of belief that in the 408 00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:09,680 Speaker 8: next whatever one to three years, we're going to break 409 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:12,359 Speaker 8: into superintelligence and you're going to have a hockey stick 410 00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:14,920 Speaker 8: moment for those stocks, similar to what we saw after 411 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:17,320 Speaker 8: GPT was launched two years ago, two and a half 412 00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:20,080 Speaker 8: years ago, and no one wants to miss that return. 413 00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:23,040 Speaker 8: So everyone's, as they say, holding on for dear life. 414 00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:25,879 Speaker 3: Just so you know. This surveillance on August twelfth, the 415 00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 3: break and super intelligence. It's surveillance is have your offspring 416 00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:34,280 Speaker 3: done their summer reading list? That's what we call super intelligence. 417 00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:36,640 Speaker 3: Right now, Lisa, how are we doing over there? I mean, 418 00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:39,560 Speaker 3: there's their second book, second book out of what eight? 419 00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:40,280 Speaker 7: That's awesome. 420 00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:44,920 Speaker 8: You're there, You're there, success, check the box. 421 00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:47,600 Speaker 3: Kuse me, Rebecca. I got to switch here and apply 422 00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:50,960 Speaker 3: this economics and this inflation. The market's loving in futures. 423 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:55,560 Speaker 3: I'm thirty three right now. Over to the oddity of 424 00:20:55,600 --> 00:21:00,440 Speaker 3: this market. You have handled really serious family high net 425 00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:05,960 Speaker 3: worth work at Bessemer just as one example, how do 426 00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:10,200 Speaker 3: you invest in this chaos? If you want to be measured, 427 00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:14,040 Speaker 3: want to be prudent, but must participate in the growth, 428 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 3: do you buy more? Nvidia is at the solution. 429 00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:19,959 Speaker 8: No, I wouldn't hear at these levels, but if I 430 00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:23,399 Speaker 8: owned it, I also wouldn't be rushing to disinvest I 431 00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:26,960 Speaker 8: mean my approach has been for most of this year 432 00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:31,560 Speaker 8: to have be invested in equities, have a Barbelle approach, 433 00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:34,959 Speaker 8: so the tech sector, which is a structural theme despite 434 00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:38,040 Speaker 8: the valuations, but then to protect your downside with some 435 00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:41,639 Speaker 8: defensive sectors like utilities or consumer staples. And you know, 436 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:44,000 Speaker 8: we've been talking about this for well over a year 437 00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:47,800 Speaker 8: as part of my diversifiers, to protect my downside. I 438 00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:50,960 Speaker 8: like gold, even with the tariff removed by President Trump 439 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:54,560 Speaker 8: earlier this week, Gold's up twenty seven percent year to date, 440 00:21:55,560 --> 00:21:58,399 Speaker 8: more last year. And I think as long as the 441 00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:01,520 Speaker 8: world is uncertain and inflation and risks are to the upside, 442 00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:03,919 Speaker 8: that's going to be an asset that can benefit you. 443 00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:08,120 Speaker 6: So evaluation here. You mentioned the concentration risk. 444 00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:12,159 Speaker 5: Yeah, we haven't seen that really since the late nineties. 445 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:14,480 Speaker 5: Now this is a different environment from the late nineties. 446 00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:18,159 Speaker 5: These companies have real earnings, real cash flow, but still 447 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:19,760 Speaker 5: that concentration risk. 448 00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:21,600 Speaker 6: It certainly makes me concerned. 449 00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:23,720 Speaker 8: Yeah, I agree with that, and again that's part of 450 00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:26,440 Speaker 8: the reason I want to have this Barbell strategy. When 451 00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:29,520 Speaker 8: you talk to the CEOs of these large language models, 452 00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:33,320 Speaker 8: these megacap companies, megacap tech companies. 453 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:34,240 Speaker 2: They don't know. 454 00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:35,320 Speaker 3: They don't know. 455 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:37,480 Speaker 8: How this story ends, and they'll admit that, and I 456 00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:40,359 Speaker 8: think they do publicly. So you're taking a risk with this. 457 00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:44,399 Speaker 8: You're counting on this inflection point moment for technology and 458 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:47,040 Speaker 8: that over time it spreads through the economy. I think 459 00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:51,399 Speaker 8: looking for AI beneficiaries, not just the KEAI companies, is 460 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:54,400 Speaker 8: a smart play. I think there's other thematics and they're 461 00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:57,040 Speaker 8: getting priced in, but I think they still have runway 462 00:22:57,400 --> 00:23:02,359 Speaker 8: things like infrastructure, things like global defense. Those are ways 463 00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:04,960 Speaker 8: that get an indirect play on AI, but at slightly 464 00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:08,080 Speaker 8: less crazy value. Not crazy crazy is the only word 465 00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:09,280 Speaker 8: to use high valuations. 466 00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:11,520 Speaker 3: I got to call at Kansas City Fed today and 467 00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:14,399 Speaker 3: beg for a chair at the Pioneer Grill for breakfast. 468 00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:17,720 Speaker 3: Sounds good. I think it's on Friday when I'm there. 469 00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:19,320 Speaker 3: Are you going to be a checkson a hole? 470 00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:20,320 Speaker 8: Sadly, I'm not. 471 00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 3: I'm going to Are you not going to be there? 472 00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:24,879 Speaker 8: Because I'm also a mom and I'm going to make 473 00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:27,040 Speaker 8: sure my daughter is set up for a great school year? 474 00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:30,760 Speaker 6: There you go, fun, It is time the. 475 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:34,040 Speaker 3: Door you do a dorm room like with the TV 476 00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:36,600 Speaker 3: in the Nine Yards.

I don't judge. 479 00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:42,879 Speaker 8: If someone wants to deck out their kids dorm Lisa, 480 00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:46,160 Speaker 8: help have fun, but no, I'm more of a I'm 481 00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:47,879 Speaker 8: going to get you there, make sure you have the 482 00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:50,439 Speaker 8: basics you need.

And again, no judgment.

As you set up to write to 510 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:06,840 Speaker 3: the end of the week, are you looking at bills, notes, 511 00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:09,800 Speaker 3: bonds or are you looking even more short term than that? 512 00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:13,840 Speaker 10: Well, actually medium term, but we're looking at we're looking 513 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:16,159 Speaker 10: at real yields and what tips are doing and what 514 00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:20,400 Speaker 10: they're suggesting for inflation going forward, because obviously the market 515 00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:23,119 Speaker 10: and how it prices for inflation going forward is going 516 00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:25,480 Speaker 10: to be one of the determinants that the Federal Reserve 517 00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:28,800 Speaker 10: is going to use for determining whether or not, right 518 00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:33,119 Speaker 10: it's close enough to its target of two percent to 519 00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:36,160 Speaker 10: cut rates maybe as early as September. 520 00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:38,560 Speaker 3: Okay, but I'm seeing in a real yield, Am I right? 521 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:41,720 Speaker 3: The real yield as a general statements within range has 522 00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:43,120 Speaker 3: it broken out up or down? 523 00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:46,480 Speaker 10: Yeah, it's been in this range for the better part 524 00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:50,080 Speaker 10: of this year. You know, call it on the tenure 525 00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:52,880 Speaker 10: about one and a half percent to two percent, and 526 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:55,080 Speaker 10: you know we're towards the top of that right now. 527 00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:58,439 Speaker 10: And I suspect that over time as the Federal Reserve 528 00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:01,480 Speaker 10: cuts interest rates. Whether or not that's warranted is one thing, 529 00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:05,440 Speaker 10: but you will see probably really yields move a little 530 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:09,080 Speaker 10: bit lower, but it will be move lower in a 531 00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:11,400 Speaker 10: what we call a bull steepening. So you'll see short 532 00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:14,240 Speaker 10: term like five year and two year tips yields probably 533 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:18,080 Speaker 10: fall much more quickly than ten yure yields because the 534 00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:23,240 Speaker 10: longer term real yields are affected not only by monetary policy, 535 00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:27,239 Speaker 10: but also by expectations of supply. Right, what is the 536 00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:29,560 Speaker 10: deficit going to be at? And you know, so far 537 00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:32,600 Speaker 10: we haven't seriously addressed deficits, and we're still going to 538 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:35,240 Speaker 10: have two trillion dollars more of treasuries a year from 539 00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:37,960 Speaker 10: now than we have today, and that's going to continue 540 00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:40,480 Speaker 10: to prop up long term real yields. 541 00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:43,240 Speaker 5: Neil dudd It just out with a note from Renaissance Macro. 542 00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:46,240 Speaker 5: He says, you know, for the Fed July CPI data 543 00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:50,240 Speaker 5: lately cements a September rate cut. You think that's how 544 00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:51,600 Speaker 5: the market's interpreting IRA. 545 00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:55,720 Speaker 10: Yeah, so the market's almost fully priced for a September 546 00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:58,240 Speaker 10: rate cut. What's interesting is that we're priced now for 547 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:00,720 Speaker 10: a September rate cut and a December rate cut. My 548 00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:02,960 Speaker 10: feeling is is that once the Fed starts to move, 549 00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:05,879 Speaker 10: they're going to move and keep going. They're not going 550 00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:08,520 Speaker 10: to skip a meeting just at random. So I think 551 00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:11,399 Speaker 10: that if they do cut in September, they'll also go 552 00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:14,320 Speaker 10: in October and then December. Now will they go more 553 00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:17,840 Speaker 10: than say, another you know, four cuts and cut one 554 00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:19,760 Speaker 10: hundred basis points or will they cut more than that? 555 00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:22,960 Speaker 10: Still an open question. I suspect that ultimately they will 556 00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:25,879 Speaker 10: cut to below three percent. So you're talking about one 557 00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:27,959 Speaker 10: hundred and fifty basis points one hundred and seventy five 558 00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:32,119 Speaker 10: basis points of rate cuts this cycle. Well, keep in mind, Tom, 559 00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:34,120 Speaker 10: like you know, the way that they're thinking about this. Look, 560 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:37,120 Speaker 10: inflation right now is two and a half percent. FED 561 00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:39,439 Speaker 10: funds is over four percent, So that means you have 562 00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:42,440 Speaker 10: a one and a half percent or more than one 563 00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:45,840 Speaker 10: and a half percent a real funds rate so to 564 00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:49,919 Speaker 10: get the neutral under be kind of there a simplistic 565 00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:52,359 Speaker 10: view of the world, they should could be able to 566 00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:54,760 Speaker 10: cut one hundred and seventy five base points and just 567 00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:58,359 Speaker 10: be at neutral as opposed to being at. 568 00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:03,280 Speaker 3: Then why why well cut? Yeah? 569 00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:06,080 Speaker 10: I think they haven't cut because they are worried about inflation, right, 570 00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:10,080 Speaker 10: They're worried about another another spike of inflation, and seeing 571 00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:13,880 Speaker 10: with with all the tariffs and the like, they are 572 00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:16,960 Speaker 10: concerned about about that. And also until recently, remember the 573 00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:20,000 Speaker 10: job market seemed to be holding up reasonably well and 574 00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:22,760 Speaker 10: even the wages continue to grow close to four percent. 575 00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:26,919 Speaker 10: When you have when you have job growth that is 576 00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:31,120 Speaker 10: barely at the replacement rate, there is a concern that 577 00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:34,119 Speaker 10: the job market might be the catalyst during this cycle 578 00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:37,879 Speaker 10: to actually slow the economy a lot more. And the 579 00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:39,720 Speaker 10: you know, the Federal Reserve does have a dual mandate. 580 00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:43,160 Speaker 10: And if we get another really weak data print for 581 00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:46,360 Speaker 10: the job market in September, you know, that opens up 582 00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:49,840 Speaker 10: the side open for the market to price in a 583 00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:50,520 Speaker 10: lot more cuts. 584 00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:52,720 Speaker 3: And that's where I'm looking at the labor economy more 585 00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:56,960 Speaker 3: than the inflation focus is the focus to your Avery Jersey, 586 00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:59,720 Speaker 3: thank you so much.

We're going to 593 00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:22,920 Speaker 3: place it before CPI right now. As you know, the 594 00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:26,760 Speaker 3: President and mister Putin will meet in Alaska. Site unknown 595 00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:30,560 Speaker 3: and Marie Horden are reporting on that each and every day, 596 00:29:30,840 --> 00:29:35,280 Speaker 3: and Ukraine is on the periphery. Kira Rudik is of 597 00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:40,320 Speaker 3: the Ukraine Parliament, serving as a People's Deputy of Ukraine 598 00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:42,480 Speaker 3: and from the Holos party, and we're thrilled she could 599 00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:46,880 Speaker 3: brief us this morning. Kira, all of Ukraine must be 600 00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:52,400 Speaker 3: riveted on this debate. What is Ukraine's best outcome for 601 00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:53,600 Speaker 3: this Friday meeting? 602 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:57,440 Speaker 11: Hello, and thank you so much for having me. Well, 603 00:29:57,480 --> 00:30:00,800 Speaker 11: the best outcome would be that President Trump wouldn't take 604 00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:07,480 Speaker 11: yet another public humidiation from Russian President put In, and 605 00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:11,080 Speaker 11: that he will get finally annoyed and will impose sanctions 606 00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:14,440 Speaker 11: that he has promised and tariffs on everybody who is 607 00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:17,840 Speaker 11: buying something from Russia and will go ahead on continuing 608 00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:22,160 Speaker 11: pressuring Russia. The best outcome would be for President Trump 609 00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:25,360 Speaker 11: to realize yet again that it's not Ukraine that is 610 00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:31,880 Speaker 11: on the way of the peace coming. And well, you 611 00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:35,360 Speaker 11: to judge if it's realistic, but this will be the 612 00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:36,959 Speaker 11: best outcome that we can hope for. 613 00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:40,800 Speaker 3: Should Ukraine give up territory, acreage land? 614 00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:46,240 Speaker 11: The main question here, because you know everybody's asking should 615 00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:50,360 Speaker 11: Ukraine give up territories? The main question is for what? 616 00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:54,760 Speaker 11: And the second question is who or what will make 617 00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:57,960 Speaker 11: sure that in this case Russia would not attack us again, 618 00:30:58,320 --> 00:31:02,720 Speaker 11: Because asking Ukraine about territories is a simple question, Asking 619 00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:05,240 Speaker 11: who will make sure that Trashia will keep the part 620 00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:08,720 Speaker 11: of the bargain, whatever that bargain is, is a complicated question. 621 00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:12,840 Speaker 11: And we didn't hear any single world leader trying to 622 00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:16,000 Speaker 11: figure out that or at least hint him of how 623 00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:18,760 Speaker 11: it will work. Because we have been in so called 624 00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:23,600 Speaker 11: ceasefires with Russia since twenty thirteen dozens of times and 625 00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:26,280 Speaker 11: it never worked and there was nobody to complain to, 626 00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:29,840 Speaker 11: So how this time will be different? President Trump was 627 00:31:29,880 --> 00:31:32,840 Speaker 11: talking about swapping of the territories. How do you make 628 00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:37,240 Speaker 11: sure if even if we talk about swapping territories the 629 00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:40,000 Speaker 11: Trausia wouldn't take them back in like one or two. 630 00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:45,760 Speaker 5: Years, Kira, For those in your country that advocate for peace, 631 00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:49,800 Speaker 5: what is that kind of based upon? What would be 632 00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:55,720 Speaker 5: an acceptable reasonable peace negotiation form? Do you think. 633 00:31:56,840 --> 00:31:59,680 Speaker 11: Again, like when we are talking about peace, of course 634 00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:02,960 Speaker 11: people here on the ground they want peace, and we 635 00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:04,320 Speaker 11: are all exhausted. 636 00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:04,320 Speaker 7: Of the war. 637 00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:08,760 Speaker 11: But we also know again that whatever you agree with Russia, 638 00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:12,280 Speaker 11: it's very hard, almost impossible to make them stick to it. 639 00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:19,000 Speaker 11: So whatever talks are about heritories, about any agreements, the 640 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:22,720 Speaker 11: first thing is how do you President Trump or European 641 00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:25,960 Speaker 11: leaders or whoever, how do you pressure Russia to keep 642 00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:29,760 Speaker 11: the part of the bargain. And before that, anything else 643 00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:33,760 Speaker 11: is useless to discuss because if the security guarantees are 644 00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:36,840 Speaker 11: not there, Russia will just use this time to group 645 00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:39,560 Speaker 11: and they will attack us again in a couple of years. 646 00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:44,080 Speaker 11: This is what happened again and again to us. 647 00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:47,000 Speaker 3: This unique situation. And if we assume mister Zelenski is 648 00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:51,400 Speaker 3: on the outside, what do you need from Europe? Are 649 00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:55,920 Speaker 3: you looking the individual nations, Heiro rudic Or you're looking 650 00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:59,280 Speaker 3: to Brussels of a modern European Union. 651 00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:04,200 Speaker 11: What worked for us in the past is working with 652 00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:10,840 Speaker 11: the individual nations. So we didn't get like certain amount 653 00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:14,240 Speaker 11: of weapons from NATO as it is, but from countries 654 00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:19,240 Speaker 11: like Britain, like Denmark, like Norway, like Germany, France. So 655 00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:21,440 Speaker 11: it works the best when we are working with the 656 00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:26,480 Speaker 11: individual nations. And the overall truth is we want everyone 657 00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:29,520 Speaker 11: just to execute on the promises that they have already made. 658 00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:32,320 Speaker 11: If that was done, we will already be in the 659 00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:37,040 Speaker 11: better positions. Unfortunately, times go differently in Ukraine when you 660 00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:40,520 Speaker 11: are under the bombardment and in peaceful cities of Europe 661 00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:44,160 Speaker 11: that are able to stay peaceful while we are stopping 662 00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:47,240 Speaker 11: Russia from whatever wherever they want to go next. And 663 00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:51,440 Speaker 11: so sometimes between the political promise and the moment when 664 00:33:51,560 --> 00:33:54,600 Speaker 11: Ukrainian soldiers getting weapons in his or her hands, it 665 00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:56,840 Speaker 11: could be years and this is not something that we 666 00:33:56,880 --> 00:33:57,400 Speaker 11: can afford. 667 00:33:57,480 --> 00:34:00,440 Speaker 3: Right now, when you're in New York again, we would 668 00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:02,680 Speaker 3: be honored to have you in.

I'm going to say two years 679 00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:41,400 Speaker 3: ago they had a modest pension issue where they basically 680 00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:46,120 Speaker 3: had a marketing concept around pensions, which blew up. I mean, 681 00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:49,160 Speaker 3: just let's cut. Let's just leave it at that because 682 00:34:49,160 --> 00:34:53,120 Speaker 3: of time. He Peu von steinas with Oliver Wyman, just 683 00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:56,240 Speaker 3: wrote an essay. You know, Tracy Eloway and Joe Wis 684 00:34:57,680 --> 00:35:00,120 Speaker 3: them roars. He wrote it. You know he's the kill 685 00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:04,200 Speaker 3: and you wrote an essay for ad lites. The next 686 00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:07,759 Speaker 3: big thing in private credit? Come on, Hewett. Reminds me 687 00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:11,280 Speaker 3: of what you people lived in the Liz Trust. Blow 688 00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:16,560 Speaker 3: up your pension system? Do we really want bitcoin or directly, 689 00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:19,600 Speaker 3: do we want private credit in our four or one k? 690 00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:20,480 Speaker 2: Well? 691 00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:22,160 Speaker 12: Thanks for having me back on, Tom Well. The first 692 00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:25,560 Speaker 12: lesson I learned is never to I don't own the title, 693 00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:28,919 Speaker 12: the headline and the rock stars to use the title. Look, 694 00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:32,000 Speaker 12: I think that if you look at a retirement savings 695 00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:34,400 Speaker 12: around the world. You know, in the States a defined 696 00:35:34,400 --> 00:35:37,280 Speaker 12: benefit scheme has about twenty three percent in real estate 697 00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:41,160 Speaker 12: fixing come private equity Australia twenty to thirty points. But 698 00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:44,120 Speaker 12: for US retirees it's close to zero. It's actually about 699 00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:48,280 Speaker 12: two percent. And so I think giving investors more opportunities 700 00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:52,439 Speaker 12: to save and also manage their retirement is responsible. How 701 00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:54,640 Speaker 12: it's done. You know, there's a lot of innovation which 702 00:35:54,680 --> 00:35:56,600 Speaker 12: needs to be done. But literally give you one statistic. 703 00:35:56,760 --> 00:35:59,240 Speaker 12: About three and a half trillion are in target date funds. 704 00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:02,400 Speaker 12: Sixty eight percent of all inflows go into target light funds. 705 00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:04,840 Speaker 12: Do you know how many people switch every year? Just 706 00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:08,279 Speaker 12: one percent? It means it's the stickiest investment product on 707 00:36:08,280 --> 00:36:10,840 Speaker 12: the planet. And therefore, to say you have to invest 708 00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:14,400 Speaker 12: all of that in daily liquidity funds feels too tight. Okay, 709 00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:15,320 Speaker 12: what's the right amount? 710 00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:15,920 Speaker 7: That's a debate. 711 00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:18,280 Speaker 3: Let me get the line up here. Are you telling 712 00:36:18,360 --> 00:36:21,480 Speaker 3: me that Lisa Mateo in or two or John Tucker 713 00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:24,719 Speaker 3: in his two oh one K John Tucker goes into 714 00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:28,239 Speaker 3: private credit, he's going to get the quality the three 715 00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:30,919 Speaker 3: phone calls from Blackstone's going to get. I just don't 716 00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:33,080 Speaker 3: buy it. I mean, how do we know that we're 717 00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:36,760 Speaker 3: going to have quality private credit in a reserve vehicle. 718 00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:38,960 Speaker 12: Look, I think it's a great question. So I think 719 00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:40,320 Speaker 12: you've got a couple of layers to this. So the 720 00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:43,200 Speaker 12: first is there's a whole bunch of fiduciaries who run 721 00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:47,160 Speaker 12: these systems. So there's investment consultants, there's planned sponsors. And 722 00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:50,520 Speaker 12: I think also these assets are not going to just 723 00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:53,800 Speaker 12: be thrown into a portfolio. They're going to be probably 724 00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:57,320 Speaker 12: in an evergreen fund, so in a thoughtfully managed, professionally 725 00:36:57,320 --> 00:37:00,759 Speaker 12: managed building block. So I think point one is there's 726 00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:02,840 Speaker 12: at least three layers of fiduciaries which are going to 727 00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:05,759 Speaker 12: be overseeing this. I think two is then thinking about 728 00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:08,680 Speaker 12: what is the right risk return. And obviously some large 729 00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:11,759 Speaker 12: institutional investors can take much more risk because they've got 730 00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:14,719 Speaker 12: pots of money and long duration. I think obviously here 731 00:37:14,760 --> 00:37:17,160 Speaker 12: it's going to be building blocks. But I think in 732 00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:19,719 Speaker 12: an environment where more and more loans are being done 733 00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:22,839 Speaker 12: outside of the banking system, I think it's fair enough 734 00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:25,200 Speaker 12: that that investors can invest in more credit, And I 735 00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:27,680 Speaker 12: think the key point, which we've discussed before, is the 736 00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:30,560 Speaker 12: difference between a five year public bond and a five 737 00:37:30,600 --> 00:37:33,200 Speaker 12: year private credit. It's a grey scale now, both are 738 00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:35,879 Speaker 12: quite a liquid, both have got characteristics. So I think 739 00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:38,560 Speaker 12: it's no longer black and white in this market. 740 00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:43,720 Speaker 5: We haven't seen private credit experience a significant prolonged economic downturn, 741 00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:45,520 Speaker 5: have we. We don't know how it's going to perform 742 00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:49,959 Speaker 5: in a capitalic constrained environment. What's the what's the thinking there? 743 00:37:50,480 --> 00:37:51,920 Speaker 7: Look, it's a great question. 744 00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:54,160 Speaker 12: So I mean, one way I think about it is 745 00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:56,720 Speaker 12: that as the as the universe of what's in private 746 00:37:56,719 --> 00:37:59,279 Speaker 12: credit spans, it's going to drift towards what we've learned 747 00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:00,920 Speaker 12: from the banks of the lot twenty or thirty years, 748 00:38:00,920 --> 00:38:03,759 Speaker 12: because effectively these are bank loans which are being put 749 00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:06,759 Speaker 12: into private structures. There was a FED study about two 750 00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:09,160 Speaker 12: years ago, so it's a bit dated now, which showed 751 00:38:09,160 --> 00:38:13,400 Speaker 12: that the loss the probability of default was about a 752 00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:15,880 Speaker 12: third lower for the private credit loans at that stage. 753 00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:18,399 Speaker 12: Probably bit of cherry picking, but then the loss given 754 00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:20,480 Speaker 12: default so when it goes wrong, what you reclaim was 755 00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:23,600 Speaker 12: a bit worse, but net net, so far it's been 756 00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:24,879 Speaker 12: it has been better. 757 00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:25,399 Speaker 7: But you're right. 758 00:38:25,760 --> 00:38:27,960 Speaker 12: As the industry scales, there'll be good decisions and bad 759 00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:30,360 Speaker 12: decisions and so naturally returns will. 760 00:38:30,080 --> 00:38:31,799 Speaker 3: Probably cold down the market. 761 00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:35,719 Speaker 12: Look, this is this is one of the ask this 762 00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:38,040 Speaker 12: is one of the really critical questions. So the moment 763 00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:42,000 Speaker 12: they're marked probably every quarter, every quarter, every quarter, Oh, 764 00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:44,080 Speaker 12: come on, and that's note. So what we argue in 765 00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:47,320 Speaker 12: that piece for the rock stars was that the pricing 766 00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:50,520 Speaker 12: conventions will need to evolve so they're done at least 767 00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:52,000 Speaker 12: on a monthly basis. 768 00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:54,200 Speaker 3: Say, is this a new thing or Colm Tracy and 769 00:38:54,280 --> 00:38:56,759 Speaker 3: Joe rock stars? Yeah, is that like a new thing? 770 00:38:57,320 --> 00:39:02,160 Speaker 3: That's a mandate? Okay, continue the rock starts so every 771 00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:03,640 Speaker 3: ninety days in no way. 772 00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:05,240 Speaker 7: So that's why. 773 00:39:05,360 --> 00:39:09,040 Speaker 12: But this so as you move from money being managed 774 00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:13,120 Speaker 12: for institutional investors and coming into wealth, there's a number 775 00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:15,600 Speaker 12: of things which will have to change, and obviously around 776 00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:18,799 Speaker 12: that ecosystem for a better word, you know, pricing will 777 00:39:18,880 --> 00:39:21,920 Speaker 12: change the structures. You know, there's a lot of work 778 00:39:21,920 --> 00:39:23,320 Speaker 12: which is being done and people. 779 00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:24,839 Speaker 3: Are going to have a limitation and how much they 780 00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:27,440 Speaker 3: can have in private creditor for that matter been done. 781 00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:30,520 Speaker 12: So if we think about in the retirement system. Look, 782 00:39:30,560 --> 00:39:32,840 Speaker 12: we've only just had the executive order last week, so 783 00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:34,719 Speaker 12: there's a lot of work still to be done. But 784 00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:38,640 Speaker 12: it's like rewirement, right, So going back to it, there's 785 00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:41,600 Speaker 12: at least three layers of fiduciaries. I think the fiduciaries 786 00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:44,719 Speaker 12: will have you know, will want to pilot, they want 787 00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:46,600 Speaker 12: to experiment, they want to go slowly. Give you an 788 00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:50,000 Speaker 12: example in the Australian system. Let's take the Australian super Fund. 789 00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:52,080 Speaker 12: It's the biggest funds in Australia. They have twenty three 790 00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:56,480 Speaker 12: points in private assets. They really two percent in private 791 00:39:56,520 --> 00:39:59,719 Speaker 12: credit because they're trying to listen, learn and ex experiment. 792 00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:02,240 Speaker 12: So this is not a this is not a torrent. 793 00:40:02,360 --> 00:40:03,719 Speaker 12: This is going to be something which will take a 794 00:40:03,719 --> 00:40:04,080 Speaker 12: good sh. 795 00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:08,480 Speaker 3: Australia has twenty three plus two twenty five basis points 796 00:40:08,640 --> 00:40:10,520 Speaker 3: in alternative. 797 00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:12,799 Speaker 12: Twenty three twenty three points not basis points points, So 798 00:40:12,920 --> 00:40:16,440 Speaker 12: twenty three percent of the Australian super Fund which. 799 00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:17,920 Speaker 3: Is alternative investments. 800 00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:20,360 Speaker 7: Yeah, now that's across really stay of equity. 801 00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:23,719 Speaker 5: In the Veronicas, Tom, you know the Veronicas, we do 802 00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:26,560 Speaker 5: a lot of work with registered investment advisors here at 803 00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:28,600 Speaker 5: Bloomberg and Alex Steel and I did a bunch of 804 00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:33,360 Speaker 5: remotes with them, and I was shocked at the amount 805 00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:38,000 Speaker 5: that an average registered investment advisor, a retail advisor in 806 00:40:38,080 --> 00:40:42,120 Speaker 5: any town USA has an allocation to private alternatives. 807 00:40:42,160 --> 00:40:42,879 Speaker 7: I thought it would have been. 808 00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:46,440 Speaker 5: Five percent, six percent. No, it's twenty twenty five percent. 809 00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:49,319 Speaker 5: That's just amazing. But I'm guessing not a lot of 810 00:40:49,320 --> 00:40:50,640 Speaker 5: that is in private credit. 811 00:40:51,040 --> 00:40:53,000 Speaker 7: At the moment. It'd be not that much. 812 00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:55,560 Speaker 12: Although actually, you know interesting if you look at these 813 00:40:55,600 --> 00:40:58,919 Speaker 12: sort of private credit funds for wealthy that's called called 814 00:40:58,920 --> 00:41:02,400 Speaker 12: evergreen funds, they're not only for a wealthy of they 815 00:41:02,440 --> 00:41:05,320 Speaker 12: can be for institutions YEA. To date, they're growing about 816 00:41:05,360 --> 00:41:08,680 Speaker 12: sixty percent compound probably makes it the fastest growing part 817 00:41:08,719 --> 00:41:11,160 Speaker 12: of the investment ecosystem. So it's growing, it's growing. 818 00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:15,000 Speaker 3: Keevan Steina's with this area are commercial free until nine am. 819 00:41:15,080 --> 00:41:17,759 Speaker 3: We welcome all of you across at the nation. Good 820 00:41:17,760 --> 00:41:21,400 Speaker 3: morning across the United Kingdom as well. Mister van Stinez 821 00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:26,040 Speaker 3: is with Oliver Wyman, run YouTube. Subscribe to Bloomberg Podcasts 822 00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:30,279 Speaker 3: a live Chad effervescent this morning to say at least read, 823 00:41:30,280 --> 00:41:34,320 Speaker 3: agree to the screen extremely quiet tape here nineteen minutes 824 00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:36,440 Speaker 3: away from the CPI. 825 00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:39,399 Speaker 7: Paul with you please, I mean, I'm shocked, Hugh. 826 00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:42,120 Speaker 5: I want to what your view is. Why are the 827 00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:46,280 Speaker 5: banks allowing this business to go away? From the private 828 00:41:46,280 --> 00:41:48,720 Speaker 5: credit business. I started my career at the Chase Manhattan 829 00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:53,440 Speaker 5: bank leverage lending to the media sector. You know, we 830 00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:56,000 Speaker 5: make money upfront, and we did the deal we did 831 00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:58,920 Speaker 5: lve Woark plus three, we sold off. We syndicated all 832 00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:01,399 Speaker 5: of our risk off the balance the solid to banks 833 00:42:01,440 --> 00:42:03,680 Speaker 5: all around the country so we had no balance sheet risk, 834 00:42:03,920 --> 00:42:05,200 Speaker 5: and then the next day we turn around to do 835 00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:08,319 Speaker 5: it all again. That was a great business. We made 836 00:42:08,320 --> 00:42:10,880 Speaker 5: a fortunes. Why am I letting that business go to 837 00:42:10,960 --> 00:42:12,160 Speaker 5: some of these private credit guys? 838 00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:13,640 Speaker 7: Look, Paul, I think it's a great question. 839 00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:15,600 Speaker 12: I think actually the wins are slightly changing on this, 840 00:42:15,760 --> 00:42:18,799 Speaker 12: partly with the deregulation but stronger banks. But let's face it, 841 00:42:19,120 --> 00:42:22,520 Speaker 12: post the Financial crisis, there was a whole reregulation of banks, 842 00:42:22,960 --> 00:42:26,120 Speaker 12: particularly in twenty twelve the FED told the US banks 843 00:42:26,120 --> 00:42:28,319 Speaker 12: not to own as many leverage loans, and then from 844 00:42:28,320 --> 00:42:31,760 Speaker 12: that there was a decade into the pandemic where private 845 00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:34,680 Speaker 12: credit grew a trillion dollar parallel system in the US, 846 00:42:35,320 --> 00:42:37,240 Speaker 12: and now as we come to today, then we obviously 847 00:42:37,239 --> 00:42:39,399 Speaker 12: twenty three you know, with the interest rate shot banks 848 00:42:39,400 --> 00:42:43,040 Speaker 12: from the back foot, they also were cautious. Today the 849 00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:45,359 Speaker 12: leading banks are now much back on the front foot. 850 00:42:45,440 --> 00:42:48,560 Speaker 12: And if you look at the leverage lending space, many 851 00:42:48,560 --> 00:42:51,480 Speaker 12: of the banks have tried to refinance the private credit 852 00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:53,640 Speaker 12: loans and lift them to try and argue them back. 853 00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:56,399 Speaker 12: But you know, there's also some structural areas where many 854 00:42:56,400 --> 00:42:59,040 Speaker 12: of the private credit firms, being entrepreneurial, are now looking 855 00:42:59,040 --> 00:43:03,240 Speaker 12: for fresher pastures. So they're looking into equipment leasing, aircraft leasing. 856 00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:05,960 Speaker 12: Well thanks just got out of aircraft leasing, you know 857 00:43:06,040 --> 00:43:10,360 Speaker 12: years ago, data center financing again, that's moving increasingly towards 858 00:43:10,360 --> 00:43:13,800 Speaker 12: the private credit. So look, I think everything has a cycle, 859 00:43:14,080 --> 00:43:16,360 Speaker 12: and I think the private smarter private credit funds are 860 00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:17,760 Speaker 12: looking for fresh, fresh loans. 861 00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:20,719 Speaker 3: Okay, I mean everybody wants in on this. I get it. 862 00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:24,719 Speaker 3: And it's an umpteen trillion dollar fronk plan. What are 863 00:43:24,719 --> 00:43:27,200 Speaker 3: you worried about, Hugh Vanstein, is what's the you know, 864 00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:30,759 Speaker 3: paragraph three, page twelve of the red hearing ages ago, 865 00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:32,160 Speaker 3: what's the risk factors here? 866 00:43:32,719 --> 00:43:34,759 Speaker 12: Look, I think there's there's a there's a number of things. 867 00:43:34,840 --> 00:43:38,440 Speaker 12: So as you move towards the wealthy in retail, I think, 868 00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:41,480 Speaker 12: as you said, Tom, we need to get the pricing conventions, 869 00:43:41,560 --> 00:43:44,680 Speaker 12: the right structures, the right cash flows. There's a whole 870 00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:48,480 Speaker 12: bunch of stuff around the engineering of the of the plumbing. 871 00:43:48,600 --> 00:43:51,520 Speaker 12: And look at what we've learned in finance is often 872 00:43:51,560 --> 00:43:54,080 Speaker 12: it's the plumbing which actually creates the problem rather than 873 00:43:54,080 --> 00:43:55,200 Speaker 12: actually just the assets something. 874 00:43:55,320 --> 00:43:59,640 Speaker 3: So tranches, folks, are not a trench, a trunch. Tranches 875 00:43:59,680 --> 00:44:03,120 Speaker 3: are high quality pieces of whatever it is down to 876 00:44:03,160 --> 00:44:07,800 Speaker 3: a lesser quality. We learned in seven that the quality 877 00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:12,440 Speaker 3: tranch is moving was a really ugly mover for institutional money. 878 00:44:12,840 --> 00:44:16,239 Speaker 3: Is private credit going to be trenched out? So you 879 00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:19,120 Speaker 3: know in your four oh and K the level of 880 00:44:19,320 --> 00:44:22,399 Speaker 3: risk of private credit you're going to have in your portfolio. 881 00:44:22,719 --> 00:44:26,480 Speaker 12: So this is a that this is something that I expect. 882 00:44:26,719 --> 00:44:30,040 Speaker 12: I think the ratings agencies are all over this space. 883 00:44:30,480 --> 00:44:32,920 Speaker 12: They see a new business in trying to rate a 884 00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:36,160 Speaker 12: much larger amount of the private credit space too. And look, Tom, 885 00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:38,000 Speaker 12: I think we need to be careful here between the 886 00:44:38,080 --> 00:44:41,440 Speaker 12: risky stuff, the non investment grade and the ig that 887 00:44:41,560 --> 00:44:43,600 Speaker 12: you know what tripped us up in the financial crisis 888 00:44:43,840 --> 00:44:46,520 Speaker 12: was buying an awful lot of the stuff that people 889 00:44:46,520 --> 00:44:49,480 Speaker 12: thought was low risk. Actually the non investment grade by definition, 890 00:44:49,520 --> 00:44:51,160 Speaker 12: you know it's risky, so you don't pile it on. 891 00:44:51,560 --> 00:44:53,319 Speaker 3: We got to do a joint interview with Hugh von 892 00:44:53,400 --> 00:44:57,280 Speaker 3: Steinas and Mark Kearney. Well, Curry is a little occupied something, 893 00:44:57,400 --> 00:44:59,880 Speaker 3: so I think thank Yousina's working with the Bank of 894 00:45:00,160 --> 00:45:01,319 Speaker 3: Them a bit ago. 895 00:45:01,560 --> 00:45:05,440 Speaker 1: This is the Bloomberg Surveillance Podcast. Listen live each weekday 896 00:45:05,480 --> 00:45:08,520 Speaker 1: starting at seven am Eastern on Apple, Corclay and Android 897 00:45:08,520 --> 00:45:11,560 Speaker 1: Auto with the Bloomberg Business app. You can also listen 898 00:45:11,640 --> 00:45:14,920 Speaker 1: live on Amazon Alexa from our flagship New York station, 899 00:45:15,440 --> 00:45:17,400 Speaker 1: Just say Alexa, play Bloomberg. 900 00:45:17,400 --> 00:45:18,640 Speaker 2: Eleven thirty were. 901 00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:19,880 Speaker 3: The Newspaper's Lisa Matteo. 902 00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:21,520 Speaker 9: Okay, Tom, I thought you would get a kick out 903 00:45:21,520 --> 00:45:23,200 Speaker 9: of the story because I know you love the dreaded 904 00:45:23,280 --> 00:45:26,600 Speaker 9: Yankees as you call them. They have the star studded roster, right, 905 00:45:26,600 --> 00:45:28,960 Speaker 9: the three hundred million dollar payroll. But the question and 906 00:45:29,040 --> 00:45:31,880 Speaker 9: every fan's mind is what the heck is going on? 907 00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:32,200 Speaker 6: Right? 908 00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:34,080 Speaker 2: Why is the team not showing up? 909 00:45:34,600 --> 00:45:36,759 Speaker 9: They came out of the weekend barely clinging to the 910 00:45:36,760 --> 00:45:39,120 Speaker 9: half game lead over the Cleveland Guardians to get that 911 00:45:39,280 --> 00:45:42,680 Speaker 9: final Al wild card spot. So the Wall Street Journal 912 00:45:42,760 --> 00:45:46,360 Speaker 9: kind of puts the spotlight on the ownership and points 913 00:45:46,400 --> 00:45:49,200 Speaker 9: to hal Steinbrenner, who took over the family business like 914 00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:54,120 Speaker 9: seventeen years ago, a different managerial philosophy than his father did. 915 00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:56,560 Speaker 9: They said that house a little bit loyal. You know, 916 00:45:56,640 --> 00:45:58,520 Speaker 9: he doesn't scream and do all that kind of stuff. 917 00:45:59,080 --> 00:46:01,879 Speaker 9: But the question there is when does he step in? 918 00:46:02,000 --> 00:46:04,400 Speaker 9: Like the Yankees are struggling right We know that pitching 919 00:46:04,440 --> 00:46:06,560 Speaker 9: has been an issue. They haven't won a title since 920 00:46:06,600 --> 00:46:08,560 Speaker 9: two thousand and nine. I still have the T shirt, 921 00:46:09,640 --> 00:46:13,120 Speaker 9: but little has changed. So that is the question when 922 00:46:13,280 --> 00:46:15,920 Speaker 9: are things going to start to They're. 923 00:46:15,800 --> 00:46:17,200 Speaker 6: In the playoffs pretty much every year. 924 00:46:17,239 --> 00:46:20,399 Speaker 5: They were the World Series last year, but Yankee expectations 925 00:46:20,440 --> 00:46:26,120 Speaker 5: are uniquely higher than everybody else in the sports. It's 926 00:46:26,160 --> 00:46:29,719 Speaker 5: when the World Series orts a it's a bad year. 927 00:46:30,640 --> 00:46:33,279 Speaker 3: Can we note even though we lost last night, the 928 00:46:33,320 --> 00:46:36,480 Speaker 3: ace for the Red Sox is pitching. The ace for 929 00:46:36,520 --> 00:46:38,479 Speaker 3: the Yankees has been out all year. 930 00:46:39,239 --> 00:46:41,200 Speaker 7: Yeah, that's that's a big deal. 931 00:46:41,239 --> 00:46:41,680 Speaker 3: That's key. 932 00:46:41,840 --> 00:46:42,600 Speaker 6: That's a big deal. 933 00:46:42,719 --> 00:46:46,279 Speaker 5: And so we started the airplane just fantastic, But the 934 00:46:46,320 --> 00:46:49,520 Speaker 5: last fifty games have been terrible, so we'll see if 935 00:46:49,520 --> 00:46:50,400 Speaker 5: they can turn it around. 936 00:46:50,920 --> 00:46:52,520 Speaker 3: But they've got time to turn it around. 937 00:46:52,560 --> 00:46:55,360 Speaker 6: You have time with a wild card, I mean exactly. 938 00:46:55,400 --> 00:46:57,960 Speaker 3: You know, I think the Chicago White Sox are reaching 939 00:46:57,960 --> 00:46:59,920 Speaker 3: for the worst right now. You're still in it. 940 00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:03,680 Speaker 9: Next, okay, we'll take you over to the labor market. 941 00:47:04,400 --> 00:47:05,000 Speaker 6: This is interesting. 942 00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:06,520 Speaker 9: The Wall Street Journal is saying the era of those 943 00:47:06,560 --> 00:47:10,160 Speaker 9: big pay raises for low paid workers could be over, 944 00:47:10,320 --> 00:47:10,640 Speaker 9: or at. 945 00:47:10,600 --> 00:47:12,000 Speaker 2: Least maybe taking a pause. 946 00:47:12,400 --> 00:47:14,799 Speaker 9: It's it's a different site before, you know, the year 947 00:47:14,920 --> 00:47:17,160 Speaker 9: right before the pandemic and then right after the pandemic 948 00:47:17,160 --> 00:47:19,200 Speaker 9: where we saw the opposite of it. You know, it 949 00:47:19,239 --> 00:47:21,760 Speaker 9: pointed to the July jobs report which kind of compared 950 00:47:21,800 --> 00:47:24,879 Speaker 9: you know, leisure and hospitality workers, you know, a three 951 00:47:24,920 --> 00:47:27,000 Speaker 9: point five percent increase from a year earlier, and then 952 00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:29,399 Speaker 9: you had the information sector that was up about five 953 00:47:29,440 --> 00:47:32,560 Speaker 9: point four percent. But what it really does, it's a 954 00:47:32,560 --> 00:47:35,000 Speaker 9: good look into the history of the wage gap and 955 00:47:35,040 --> 00:47:37,360 Speaker 9: how that has fluctuated over the past few years. So 956 00:47:37,400 --> 00:47:39,680 Speaker 9: I just thought this was a good one to point 957 00:47:39,680 --> 00:47:41,680 Speaker 9: out because you know, it's a good look back into. 958 00:47:41,480 --> 00:47:42,200 Speaker 6: The history of it. 959 00:47:42,239 --> 00:47:44,800 Speaker 5: And how college Sun's got a summer job. I'm shocked 960 00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:46,120 Speaker 5: that it was getting paid per hour. 961 00:47:46,280 --> 00:47:48,640 Speaker 6: I mean it's like a real paycheck. I'm like, dude, 962 00:47:48,640 --> 00:47:49,760 Speaker 6: what do you can do with all this cash? 963 00:47:49,920 --> 00:47:52,920 Speaker 3: Like, what's there?

But it depends on 967 00:48:03,360 --> 00:48:03,760 Speaker 6: the sector. 968 00:48:03,840 --> 00:48:06,640 Speaker 9: Like my nephew just got a job. He's still in college, 969 00:48:06,640 --> 00:48:10,160 Speaker 9: but they guaranteed him a job making six figures before 970 00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:11,160 Speaker 9: he's even graduated. 971 00:48:11,239 --> 00:48:14,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think just for the like the you know, 972 00:48:14,719 --> 00:48:15,600 Speaker 5: the hourly worker. 973 00:48:16,239 --> 00:48:17,640 Speaker 6: Amazon is the market. 974 00:48:17,800 --> 00:48:18,480 Speaker 7: I mean, it's not the. 975 00:48:18,920 --> 00:48:21,680 Speaker 6: Federal governor, the market government market center. 976 00:48:21,800 --> 00:48:22,480 Speaker 3: Absolutely. 977 00:48:22,560 --> 00:48:24,319 Speaker 6: I mean, because they employed so many people and they're 978 00:48:24,360 --> 00:48:27,080 Speaker 6: paying up and that's you have to match it. 979 00:48:27,160 --> 00:48:28,319 Speaker 3: So anyway, thank you. 980 00:48:28,560 --> 00:48:31,400 Speaker 9: Okay, swifties waking up to a real treat. 981 00:48:31,520 --> 00:48:32,399 Speaker 2: Did you know it was. 982 00:48:32,320 --> 00:48:35,200 Speaker 9: A surprise album drop from Taylor Swift It is the 983 00:48:35,320 --> 00:48:37,719 Speaker 9: Life of a show Girl, and she revealed it on 984 00:48:37,760 --> 00:48:41,560 Speaker 9: her boyfriend Travis Kelsey's new Heights poss Still Together.
