6
00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:33,199
Speaker 1: Blackwill a senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations

7
00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:36,640
Speaker 1: and Bloomberg opinion columnist Robert Let's stout here, how do

8
00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:40,800
Speaker 1: you convince a foreign country of the responsibility that comes

9
00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:45,559
Speaker 1: with great power? Well, I don't think you convince a

10
00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:49,440
Speaker 1: foreign country or most any of uh, buddy else by

11
00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:54,040
Speaker 1: hectoring them or constantly lecturing them. I hope the President

12
00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:59,160
Speaker 1: will begin the conversation with she by essentially saying, UH,

13
00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:02,480
Speaker 1: we have a problem here. Uh. We may see the

14
00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:06,959
Speaker 1: situation Ukraine somewhat differently, but we both both want to

15
00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:10,880
Speaker 1: first have a cease fire and then find uh an

16
00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:14,000
Speaker 1: equitable way to end this war. And I hope you'll

17
00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:18,280
Speaker 1: start like that and not start with your on the

18
00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:23,559
Speaker 1: wrong side of history or uh with threats. It seems like, Robert,

19
00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:26,000
Speaker 1: we have a superpower on the global stage that has

20
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:29,959
Speaker 1: a very different interpretation of the responsibility that comes with power.

21
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:32,279
Speaker 1: And Robert, I wonder if this is something you see

22
00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:35,560
Speaker 1: repeating again and again over time, or whether a situation

23
00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:38,600
Speaker 1: evolves within China where they start to change, they start

24
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:43,720
Speaker 1: to change their approach. Well. Uh, First of all, Uh,

25
00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:46,759
Speaker 1: I wouldn't put it quite as you did. Uh. China

26
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:50,840
Speaker 1: has a different interpretation of its vital national interests than

27
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 1: we wish it did. And essentially, I believe the Chinese

28
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:59,560
Speaker 1: leadership things that the United States is determined to stop

29
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:03,560
Speaker 1: its rise, to contain it, if you will, and they

30
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:08,720
Speaker 1: see everything through beginning with she that optic. And so

31
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:11,560
Speaker 1: what we have to do, I think is, first of all,

32
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:15,359
Speaker 1: while of course remaining strong and resolute and defending our

33
00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:18,360
Speaker 1: national interests, we have to try to persuade them that

34
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:21,839
Speaker 1: isn't the case. And that's the context in which this

35
00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:26,359
Speaker 1: conversation will have happened this morning. I would remark that

36
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:31,359
Speaker 1: yesterday the Chinese government issued a statement saying they hope

37
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:35,400
Speaker 1: that this conversation, which will happen in a little over

38
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 1: half an hour between the two leaders, will be an

39
00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:43,600
Speaker 1: opportunity to try to begin the improvement generally of the U. S.

40
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:48,279
Speaker 1: China relationship. So I hope that's in fact the perspective

41
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:52,240
Speaker 1: the President has, while of course making the points that

42
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:59,520
Speaker 1: China UH will if it seeks to support Russia to

43
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:04,160
Speaker 1: get a on the sanctions, will UH itself have a

44
00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:07,600
Speaker 1: serious cost. Ambassador, do you think that it's realistic for

45
00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:11,000
Speaker 1: China to want to send weapons, to want to send

46
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:17,280
Speaker 1: military support to Russia. Well, again, we don't know, I

47
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:21,480
Speaker 1: believe whether that's actually happened. We have a leak from

48
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:24,639
Speaker 1: or lead perhaps even on the record from the U. S.

49
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:31,160
Speaker 1: Intelligence community UH that Russia asked for UH such weapons.

50
00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:33,640
Speaker 1: We don't I think, have a leak of what the

51
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 1: Chinese response was. But certainly if it makes a decision

52
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:43,960
Speaker 1: to UH supply Russia with weapons in the context of

53
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:48,040
Speaker 1: this war, it will be a further, very serious blow

54
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:54,040
Speaker 1: again on US China relations, the most serious one in many,

55
00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:58,040
Speaker 1: many years. Ambassador. I noticed a line in one of

56
00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 1: your recent Bloomberg opinion pieces that released stuck out to me.

57
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:03,200
Speaker 1: Russia will remain a threat so long as Putin leads it.

58
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:07,440
Speaker 1: China will remain a challenge irrespective of its leader. That

59
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:10,280
Speaker 1: is a much longer term view, And how do you

60
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:14,920
Speaker 1: think the immediate need to focus on Eastern Europe detracts

61
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:20,360
Speaker 1: from a longer term strategic pivot towards China towards Asia. Well,

62
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:24,640
Speaker 1: my colleague Richard Fontane and I wrote a recent uh

63
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:29,000
Speaker 1: op ed for Bloomberg exactly on this subject. Uh. There

64
00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:33,240
Speaker 1: was a bipartisan agreement in Washington one if a few

65
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:38,040
Speaker 1: one might say, sadly UH that uh United States should

66
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:43,040
Speaker 1: reorient its foreign policy toward Asia. That of course, has

67
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:46,800
Speaker 1: been turned on its head by the recent events in

68
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:53,720
Speaker 1: Ukraine and the brutal Russian invasion of Ukraine. Now I

69
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 1: think without any doubt, we're going to have to moderate that, uh,

70
00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:01,520
Speaker 1: that pivot to Asia. It will be slower and less

71
00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:06,440
Speaker 1: encompassing because we have to first stabilize Europe along with

72
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:10,440
Speaker 1: our allies, and that will mean more US troops in

73
00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:13,960
Speaker 1: Europe forward deployed in the Eastern Europe. And we have

74
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:17,599
Speaker 1: to I think, do more in the Middle East. Uh.

75
00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:22,720
Speaker 1: Since the Obama administration Middle East frenzy, United States have

76
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:26,279
Speaker 1: been uh convinced we're leaving the Middle East. We have

77
00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:29,360
Speaker 1: to disabuse them of that notion. And it's only if

78
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:33,000
Speaker 1: we can have stability in the Middle East and in

79
00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:36,440
Speaker 1: Europe to a much greater extent than at present. Will

80
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:40,080
Speaker 1: we be able to make a full fledged pivot to Asia.

81
00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:42,039
Speaker 1: We'll be just a fund of question from me looking

82
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:45,120
Speaker 1: ahead to next week and the talks. You've been inside

83
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:47,920
Speaker 1: government many times, you understand the inner workings of events

84
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,680
Speaker 1: like this. You need to arrive in Europe next week

85
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:53,640
Speaker 1: with some deliverables for the President of the United States

86
00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:56,680
Speaker 1: to meet with foreign leaders next week, and what do

87
00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,640
Speaker 1: you think they would be. Well, first of all, we

88
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:02,960
Speaker 1: have to what happens between now and then, and Russia

89
00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:07,640
Speaker 1: seems to be escalating. Uh. They attacked the viv for

90
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:12,159
Speaker 1: the first time overnight. UH. If that continues, and let's

91
00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:15,679
Speaker 1: keep in mind the danger of Russian use of chemical

92
00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:19,800
Speaker 1: weapons against Ukrainian cities, then obviously there will be an

93
00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:25,440
Speaker 1: escalation in our reaction. But I think the primary in

94
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:30,360
Speaker 1: the absence of that, the primary UH presidential objective will

95
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:35,039
Speaker 1: be to keep this alliance together UH to UH UH.

96
00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:38,840
Speaker 1: And it's been remarkable. I think most people did not

97
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:42,680
Speaker 1: believe the alliance would act as resolutely as it has

98
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:47,360
Speaker 1: to this tragedy. To keep them together and to prepare

99
00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:52,720
Speaker 1: for UH next steps that Russia putin might take in

100
00:06:52,839 --> 00:07:01,800
Speaker 1: order to further the destruction of Ukrainian cities. Incredibly incredibly united, Robert,

101
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:03,440
Speaker 1: We're lucky to have you with us this morning. Thank you,

102
00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:06,400
Speaker 1: sir Robert Blackpool. There on the talks between China and

103
00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:14,960
Speaker 1: the United States. My Shoemac of the global head of

104
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:17,760
Speaker 1: Race Strategy at Wells Fargo joins us. Now, Mike, if

105
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 1: you've been surprised by how much weight we've had it

106
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:21,080
Speaker 1: to the front end of the yield curve, and he

107
00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:24,120
Speaker 1: surprised to some degree how easily we've shaken off some

108
00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:28,280
Speaker 1: of the comments of this fed this week. I haven't surprised.

109
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:31,080
Speaker 1: It's been just amazing, frankly, to watch the action at

110
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 1: the front end of the US and it's it's driven

111
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:36,360
Speaker 1: by so many factors, have fed other central banks to

112
00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:38,560
Speaker 1: degree in The inflation outlook at the front end has

113
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:41,480
Speaker 1: been incredibly volatile. I'm sure you'ld up a time and

114
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:44,480
Speaker 1: we thought they the people on by our expectations, there's

115
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:47,320
Speaker 1: not much. The curve is starting to get messy, Mike.

116
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:49,760
Speaker 1: Seven year year olds above tens saw a bit of that,

117
00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:52,280
Speaker 1: with five threes almost coming there threatening to do that

118
00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:56,160
Speaker 1: yesterday morning. The yield curve is starting to invert. It's

119
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:59,040
Speaker 1: flatter at the long end, twos tens twenty three basis

120
00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:02,440
Speaker 1: points to thirties. Let's call it fifty two down four

121
00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:04,760
Speaker 1: basis points today. Again, how do you think that evolves

122
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:07,840
Speaker 1: in the coming months, Mike, it's flatter still if you

123
00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:10,240
Speaker 1: look at the forward grades. Johnal Price, let's say twos

124
00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:12,640
Speaker 1: tends to be completely flat and three or four months

125
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:15,320
Speaker 1: something along those lines, I think you could actually invert

126
00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:17,760
Speaker 1: before then. We've been telling clients you've got to think

127
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:20,440
Speaker 1: outside the box of bit here. This is an incredibly

128
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:23,600
Speaker 1: unusual situation. The inflation backdrop as you need in the

129
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 1: last thirty or forty years. It's possible twos tends inverts

130
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:29,560
Speaker 1: to the tune of fifty basis points or more by

131
00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:31,040
Speaker 1: the end of the year. But as far as the

132
00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:35,520
Speaker 1: path forward flatter, more painful for a lot of institutions. So, Mike,

133
00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:37,840
Speaker 1: a lot of people are wondering whether an inverted yield

134
00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:40,800
Speaker 1: curve still means a recession. And I'll go a step further.

135
00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:44,000
Speaker 1: Does an inverted yield curve in and of itself cause

136
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:47,680
Speaker 1: a recession? As we were talking about the potential earlier today,

137
00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:51,000
Speaker 1: what's your view on this, I'd say no to both lisas.

138
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,440
Speaker 1: So there is a very good relationship between curve shape

139
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:57,160
Speaker 1: and future economic growth. Let's say prior to the financial crisis.

140
00:08:57,160 --> 00:09:00,040
Speaker 1: Since then, central banks have been so active buying on

141
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:03,000
Speaker 1: so you've really broken that way. So the ability of

142
00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:05,839
Speaker 1: the curve shapeless, say to predict t DP growth out

143
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:08,079
Speaker 1: twelve months eighteen months sets diminished a lot, So I

144
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:10,600
Speaker 1: wouldn't worry so much about the predictive power. But I

145
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:13,040
Speaker 1: think the second question is really interesting in terms of

146
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:17,160
Speaker 1: does a flatter curve felt cause recession? And it probably

147
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:20,280
Speaker 1: contributes in particular when you think about the financial sector.

148
00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:24,680
Speaker 1: If your basic businesses barley along and you say, well,

149
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:26,920
Speaker 1: what can I do? Or you want to I want

150
00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:29,440
Speaker 1: to borrow along, you want to lend short more flipping around,

151
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:31,400
Speaker 1: you can't really do much of the curve is flat,

152
00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:34,040
Speaker 1: so that intermediation function doesn't work for it well, and

153
00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:36,960
Speaker 1: I think that takes away a lot of profitability opportunities

154
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,320
Speaker 1: for banks and even for the shadow things. So flatter

155
00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:42,040
Speaker 1: curve is tough for financials and therefore it's tough for

156
00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:44,520
Speaker 1: the whole system. And there's also an additional yield curve

157
00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:47,200
Speaker 1: that Tom Saturas of Strateigues, who was on our show

158
00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:49,880
Speaker 1: earlier this morning, was talking about that if you see

159
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:54,080
Speaker 1: the FED funds rate get higher than that two year rate,

160
00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:56,960
Speaker 1: that that actually hurts the people who need it the most,

161
00:09:57,240 --> 00:10:00,400
Speaker 1: and what you get is a causative effect on main street.

162
00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:03,680
Speaker 1: I'm wondering from your from your perspective, whether you agree

163
00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:05,720
Speaker 1: with that, with you think the FED should back off

164
00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:08,800
Speaker 1: from raising rates as much as perhaps they're talking about

165
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:13,000
Speaker 1: and lean more heavily on the balance sheet. No, I don't. Actually,

166
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:15,840
Speaker 1: when you think about the let's say the inflation backdrop

167
00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:17,600
Speaker 1: right now, it's terrible. And I think if you talk

168
00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:19,280
Speaker 1: to most people out there in the US, and we

169
00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:22,160
Speaker 1: all do this in our daily lives, inflation is everywhere

170
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:24,360
Speaker 1: you can't really avoid. So what the FED needs to

171
00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:27,600
Speaker 1: do very simply to step up and fight inflation. That's

172
00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:30,200
Speaker 1: very abundant from an economic perspective, it's very far from

173
00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:33,240
Speaker 1: the political perspective. That's what the FED needs to get

174
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:35,520
Speaker 1: done is to fight inflation. Put that genie back in

175
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:38,120
Speaker 1: the bottle. So he needs to raise the funds rate

176
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:40,080
Speaker 1: a number of time acts. You can't focus simply on

177
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:42,280
Speaker 1: the balance sheet. Balance sheets a nice add on, but

178
00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:45,839
Speaker 1: it really has to leave the FED funds in my opinion. Well,

179
00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:48,160
Speaker 1: let's talk further about the balance sheet, with which Jerome

180
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:50,840
Speaker 1: pal did not really get to do much on Wednesday.

181
00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:52,760
Speaker 1: Maybe he will more next week when we hear from

182
00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:57,000
Speaker 1: him twice, but he basically equated that runoff to the

183
00:10:57,040 --> 00:11:00,720
Speaker 1: equivalent of a hike. How do you view it, Mike, Yeah,

184
00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:02,800
Speaker 1: I think the FED struggles in terms of that equation.

185
00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:05,360
Speaker 1: From my perspective, it's a little bit different. Basa will

186
00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:08,160
Speaker 1: compare apples to bananas, doesn't take that much sense. But

187
00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:10,840
Speaker 1: what the balance sheet does, in our view, is really

188
00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:14,640
Speaker 1: addresses risk appetite very directly. So if you think about

189
00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:16,880
Speaker 1: the basic trade during the year of quantity of easy,

190
00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:19,640
Speaker 1: and it's pretty simple. When in central banks buy more

191
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:21,959
Speaker 1: bonds and you're supposed to buy more stocks. That's worked

192
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:24,800
Speaker 1: really well. Now if you flip it, you'd say, well, okay,

193
00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:27,080
Speaker 1: if the FED and other central banks are reading in

194
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,760
Speaker 1: the balance sheet, that's probably a pretty big negative for

195
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:32,000
Speaker 1: risk assets. So I think that stands out and the

196
00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:34,440
Speaker 1: FED can take some froth out of that market. The

197
00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:36,760
Speaker 1: other thing I suspect the FED and other central banks

198
00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:39,880
Speaker 1: are trying to accomplish is to limit that neel curb

199
00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:43,040
Speaker 1: inversion limited that flattening. So if the FED backs away

200
00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:46,079
Speaker 1: from buying tenuere treasury, it's twenty of your treasuries, etcetera.

201
00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:49,160
Speaker 1: You should all else equals. See those yields go up,

202
00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:53,400
Speaker 1: so that should help limit the downside from the flatter curve. Well,

203
00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:55,719
Speaker 1: if you say QT could be a sizeable negative for

204
00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:59,520
Speaker 1: risk assets, do you think risk assets are appropriately pricing that?

205
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:03,839
Speaker 1: I suspect probably not. I think that when you look

206
00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:07,040
Speaker 1: at the risk asset landscape right now, it's been driven

207
00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:10,480
Speaker 1: primarily by the overall idea that yes, central banks will

208
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:12,520
Speaker 1: tight and that's a bat then and secondly it forced

209
00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:16,480
Speaker 1: the big commodity spike. So balance sheet probably is number three,

210
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:18,920
Speaker 1: and at least from my perspective, I think that the

211
00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:21,880
Speaker 1: risk markets have not fully priced it. So which was

212
00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:24,680
Speaker 1: asked to which risk market? Excuse me? It is a

213
00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:31,160
Speaker 1: Friday is most underpriced for this potential risk. It's hard

214
00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:33,520
Speaker 1: depending on onely. So, but when you think about risk

215
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:36,280
Speaker 1: appetite across the board, I'd say I would focus on

216
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:38,960
Speaker 1: the central banks and the most involved QT. So the

217
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:42,120
Speaker 1: FED probably leads the way, followed by banking with Banker Canada.

218
00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:46,040
Speaker 1: So within those markets, whether it's high yield bonds of equities,

219
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:48,040
Speaker 1: tough to sort of parce those differences. But I would

220
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:50,679
Speaker 1: go to the dice or parts of risk. So within

221
00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:53,440
Speaker 1: markets do you want to focus on and you think

222
00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:55,720
Speaker 1: the risk is more susceptible to the high end? I

223
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:58,679
Speaker 1: think it is the the assets that typically the higher

224
00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:02,080
Speaker 1: data most likely to be most impacted by this cut

225
00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:04,640
Speaker 1: back and balancy. The reason why I ask Michael is

226
00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:07,560
Speaker 1: because there's a lot of disagreement about how much momentum

227
00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:10,960
Speaker 1: there is in the US economy, withstand the potential for

228
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:13,800
Speaker 1: two point eight percent FED funds rate, withstand some of

229
00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,280
Speaker 1: the rate hikes that you and others are saying is

230
00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:19,280
Speaker 1: absolutely necessary in order to curtail what you see as

231
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:23,760
Speaker 1: dangerous inflationary pressures. So at this point, do you think

232
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:26,840
Speaker 1: that the FED can actually orchestrate a soft landing at

233
00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:30,880
Speaker 1: a time when they're diverging viewpoints and diverging data points

234
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:34,600
Speaker 1: underpitting the economy. It'll be very difficult to pull off

235
00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:36,480
Speaker 1: the soft landing, I think least so it was always

236
00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:38,160
Speaker 1: going to be a challenge when you think about the

237
00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:40,400
Speaker 1: massive amount of stimulus in the system, over the last

238
00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:43,760
Speaker 1: couple of years, both monetary and fiscal, the rebound from

239
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:47,199
Speaker 1: COVID on top of that commodities play. That's an incredibly

240
00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:49,680
Speaker 1: big ask to talk about a soft landing, so it

241
00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:51,920
Speaker 1: was always going to be tough. I think it's gotten

242
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:54,839
Speaker 1: much cover. The chance of it happening probably is following

243
00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:57,160
Speaker 1: by the day. So it's a fifty fifty. Maybe it's

244
00:13:57,160 --> 00:13:59,679
Speaker 1: probably not much better than that. All right, Mike, We've

245
00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:02,679
Speaker 1: talked to out risk assets, we've talked about the bond market.

246
00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:05,000
Speaker 1: Can I just get your thoughts quickly on the dollar, which,

247
00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:07,920
Speaker 1: in light of everything we heard from the Fed this week,

248
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:12,160
Speaker 1: is heading forward its biggest weekly declined since early February. Yeah,

249
00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:15,000
Speaker 1: we think that's a mistake. We're actually valuables and it's interesting.

250
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,160
Speaker 1: You can think about this from two perspectives. Really, if

251
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:19,800
Speaker 1: you look back over the last the last couple of

252
00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:21,760
Speaker 1: years and also just over the last couple of months,

253
00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:24,240
Speaker 1: the dollar has emerged as the top safety, so that

254
00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:27,080
Speaker 1: should be a win if the Ukrainian situation intensifies, which

255
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:29,840
Speaker 1: seems likely over the next month or two. And secondly,

256
00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:33,640
Speaker 1: if you focus on really only meat and potatoes types

257
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:36,280
Speaker 1: of things in effects it's interest rate differentials, and I

258
00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:39,840
Speaker 1: would say that the Laiciam Marbue there's more potential for

259
00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:43,200
Speaker 1: the market to increase its expectations for hiking from the

260
00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:46,040
Speaker 1: FED than there is from the ECB, probably from the

261
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:48,720
Speaker 1: Bank of Angels that also should benefit the dollars were

262
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:51,760
Speaker 1: actually very positive in a stollar right now. My Shoemaker,

263
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:55,240
Speaker 1: thank you fantastic coal earn this year on the pond market.

264
00:14:55,320 --> 00:15:02,400
Speaker 1: My Shoemaker there of last f commits, Sky joined us

265
00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:06,640
Speaker 1: now chief research strategist to Alpha Simplex Katy three this year.

266
00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 1: Can we just work through that? What would happen if

267
00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:12,040
Speaker 1: they try to raise the FED funds to three percent

268
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:16,240
Speaker 1: this year? Oh, that's a hard one because the truth

269
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:18,720
Speaker 1: is I would love to do that and raise the

270
00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:22,760
Speaker 1: FED funds rate to three percent, but that has repercussions

271
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:25,280
Speaker 1: and it needs a little bit of balance in terms

272
00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:29,880
Speaker 1: of not affecting growth and causing disruption in the market.

273
00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:32,440
Speaker 1: So I think the Fed is probably choosing to be

274
00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:35,320
Speaker 1: a little bit more conservative and kind of ease into

275
00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:37,760
Speaker 1: this new decision and how to actually move into a

276
00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:40,800
Speaker 1: regime of raising rates. So I think there's a difference

277
00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:45,520
Speaker 1: between what might one might want and what is actually achievable,

278
00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:49,600
Speaker 1: um in sort of short order, achievable without the disruptions

279
00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:51,920
Speaker 1: that you talk about. Is this basically the modern form,

280
00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:54,360
Speaker 1: the new form of a FED put that they will

281
00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:57,040
Speaker 1: move much more slowly than perhaps they would want to,

282
00:15:57,160 --> 00:16:00,000
Speaker 1: simply because they do not want to incur a huge

283
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:03,600
Speaker 1: losses and the equity markets, yes, because I think the

284
00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:07,320
Speaker 1: challenges Remember, as rates rise, we have sort of industries

285
00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:11,320
Speaker 1: that have more duration exposure. We have potential tightening of credit,

286
00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:15,080
Speaker 1: we have other issues that could cause businesses to be

287
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:17,680
Speaker 1: a little more squeezed with higher rates, And so I

288
00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:21,400
Speaker 1: think the challenge is balancing between not affecting growth and

289
00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:26,400
Speaker 1: encouraging encouraging good economic practice, but at the same time

290
00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:30,160
Speaker 1: not disrupting the market. I mean traditionally, whenever the market

291
00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:33,520
Speaker 1: has been faced with the rate hike, we usually have

292
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:35,280
Speaker 1: sort of a sell off in some way. So I

293
00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:38,840
Speaker 1: was pretty impressed that the market was relatively calm this

294
00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:42,240
Speaker 1: week about this decision, but maybe that's because everybody knew

295
00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:45,160
Speaker 1: it was coming well. Impressed though, at the same time, Katie,

296
00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:48,400
Speaker 1: we did see a changed tone from a FED chair J. Powell,

297
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:51,280
Speaker 1: even indicating balance sheet reduction as soon as May. I'm

298
00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:55,360
Speaker 1: just wondering are we actually reacting to the words? Are

299
00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:58,720
Speaker 1: we actually reacting to the press conference? Are we reacting

300
00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:00,640
Speaker 1: to the FED that we have known over the past

301
00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:03,240
Speaker 1: ten years, which is one that is beholden to a

302
00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:07,919
Speaker 1: certain common markets. Yeah, I mean that's a good question.

303
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:10,679
Speaker 1: I mean, I think we've been asking the same question

304
00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:13,000
Speaker 1: all last year. Are we ever going to see this

305
00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:15,879
Speaker 1: type of move on our side? What we do see

306
00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:19,840
Speaker 1: is sort of the technical signals that show that rising

307
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:23,160
Speaker 1: rates are coming, and sort of the trend themselves really

308
00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:26,080
Speaker 1: sort of has been indicative that we're going to see

309
00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:28,320
Speaker 1: these rising rates in the long term. I think the

310
00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:31,399
Speaker 1: real challenges them sort of shifting regimes and sort of

311
00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:34,280
Speaker 1: being more actionable. And I think that's something that we

312
00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:36,320
Speaker 1: really still have to see and I think you indicated

313
00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:38,360
Speaker 1: that in the sense that we've kind of seen them

314
00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:41,320
Speaker 1: being a little bit more complacent in this area. UM.

315
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:43,840
Speaker 1: But I think when you're dealing with inflation at the

316
00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:46,320
Speaker 1: level we're seeing right now, the pressure is going to

317
00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:49,160
Speaker 1: come from a lot more places, um, and that will

318
00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:52,159
Speaker 1: push them more. Katie. The market's knew coming into this

319
00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:55,159
Speaker 1: year about those inflationary pressures and the likelihood of tighter

320
00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:58,360
Speaker 1: monetary policy resulting from that. What it couldn't have anticipated

321
00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:01,960
Speaker 1: was a war in Eastern in Europe. Do you think

322
00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:04,960
Speaker 1: the market is still under pricing the risks around both

323
00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:07,880
Speaker 1: of those things happening simultaneously as we see the smp

324
00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:10,160
Speaker 1: F I founded coming off it's best three days since November.

325
00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:14,479
Speaker 1: That's a good question because I think most people are

326
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:17,360
Speaker 1: asking themselves this right now. But the truth is, from

327
00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:20,439
Speaker 1: our cross asset perspective, we really see that some of

328
00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:24,879
Speaker 1: the trends going into the Ukraine crisis really just extended.

329
00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:27,679
Speaker 1: So what that means is we saw an extension of

330
00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:31,560
Speaker 1: current themes, inflation theme actually extending even further, and we

331
00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:35,439
Speaker 1: had massive moves, particularly in the energy markets. So some

332
00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:38,000
Speaker 1: of us are thinking that there may be some consolidation

333
00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:40,800
Speaker 1: at this point, meaning that some of the concern and

334
00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:44,120
Speaker 1: some of the supply chain issues are priced in UM,

335
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:46,600
Speaker 1: but there is still definitely room because as you know,

336
00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:52,639
Speaker 1: geopolitical uncertainty is very difficult to predict, and things can

337
00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:56,640
Speaker 1: change quickly and in different directions than we would like UM.

338
00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:58,560
Speaker 1: So what I would say is we may not be

339
00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:00,840
Speaker 1: pricing it all in, but that may be just because

340
00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:03,080
Speaker 1: it's hard to know how to do that, Kat just

341
00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:05,920
Speaker 1: quickly just finally on the FED, if we can finish there.

342
00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:08,119
Speaker 1: At least when I were talking about this with Tom

343
00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:11,720
Speaker 1: earlier this week, this felt like the December FED mating

344
00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:14,160
Speaker 1: what cham and Pau said everything he needed to send

345
00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:17,040
Speaker 1: the news conference, and people didn't really listen to it,

346
00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:19,440
Speaker 1: and then they reacted to it when the same thing

347
00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:21,840
Speaker 1: came out in the minutes, as if the minutes was

348
00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:24,119
Speaker 1: some kind of hawky surprise. Do you think was setting

349
00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:28,720
Speaker 1: up for the same kind of thing again? Oh? Yeah,

350
00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:31,399
Speaker 1: I mean to be honest with you, I wish I

351
00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:34,399
Speaker 1: knew the answer to that question. I think most people

352
00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:37,840
Speaker 1: are really sort of in a period where they're not

353
00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:41,040
Speaker 1: reacting much right now. I feel like the market has

354
00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:44,639
Speaker 1: moved already um. And the key question is does the

355
00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:48,480
Speaker 1: market already anticipate that um? And so I'd say that

356
00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:52,119
Speaker 1: we're seeing some consolidation, some of the positioning kind of

357
00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:56,040
Speaker 1: coming off for certain trades. Interesting suggests that people, so

358
00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:58,480
Speaker 1: you saw that flattener kind of turned into a steepener

359
00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:00,760
Speaker 1: a little bit this week, which means that people had

360
00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:03,640
Speaker 1: betted on this move or a bet on this move,

361
00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:06,240
Speaker 1: and now they saw it. So there's a little consolidation.

362
00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:09,800
Speaker 1: What I'd say is short term respite, a little bit

363
00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:12,480
Speaker 1: of back and forth, and then more focused on the

364
00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:15,240
Speaker 1: next time we have an opportunity for hike. Kenny, Thank

365
00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:24,359
Speaker 1: you Kenny Kaminsky of Alpha Simplex. Christian Majo joined us

366
00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:27,240
Speaker 1: now the head of Portfolio Strategy of TV Securities. Kristen,

367
00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:31,040
Speaker 1: can we start there with Saudi Arabia over the murder

368
00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:34,360
Speaker 1: of Kashagi? You remember people stepped back from Saudi Arabia

369
00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:36,160
Speaker 1: and then they were back in React twelve months later.

370
00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:38,520
Speaker 1: This feel is different for a lot of people. Do

371
00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:41,159
Speaker 1: you agree with Blue Bay there that line that Russia

372
00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:43,480
Speaker 1: will be in the isolated wilderness for a long time

373
00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:46,359
Speaker 1: to come. A regime change in Russia is probably a

374
00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:51,679
Speaker 1: prerequisite for reinvestment for many. Yeah, I think I agree

375
00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:55,080
Speaker 1: with that statement that two situations are really different because

376
00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:58,760
Speaker 1: the solely case was against one single person, while here

377
00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:01,960
Speaker 1: we're talking about a whole nation and I'm talking about

378
00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:06,200
Speaker 1: Ukraine being involved. But there will probably be some money

379
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:09,040
Speaker 1: coming back, probably some money will not leave at all.

380
00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:12,840
Speaker 1: But the problem is, even when you remove sanctions, um,

381
00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:16,399
Speaker 1: what's the reputational risk of being associated to a regime

382
00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:19,840
Speaker 1: that by many as being considered to be a murderous

383
00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:23,040
Speaker 1: and genocidal one. So, Christian, what is the contagion risk

384
00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:26,360
Speaker 1: to other emerging markets, given the fact that this isn't

385
00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:28,520
Speaker 1: going away, certainly not in the financial world for a

386
00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:32,040
Speaker 1: long time. Well, first of all, we see contagion right

387
00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:37,720
Speaker 1: now through conversion and through UH commodity prices. Commodity prices

388
00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:41,720
Speaker 1: were already on the upside, but they are definitely um

389
00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:47,560
Speaker 1: getting pushed much higher because Russia is a great commodity producer, energy,

390
00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:53,200
Speaker 1: agricultural medals. So that's not going to go away immediately

391
00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:57,160
Speaker 1: because we have just too many supply side disruptions involved

392
00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:01,000
Speaker 1: in this conflict. Then you can have default, the Russian

393
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:05,160
Speaker 1: default that everybody is talking about, and that's another risk. Well,

394
00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:07,800
Speaker 1: but the market views that as a lesser risk today

395
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:10,280
Speaker 1: than it did yesterday. Christian on the news that Russia

396
00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:13,040
Speaker 1: sent that a hundred seventeen million dollar payment to JP Morgan,

397
00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:14,760
Speaker 1: who then sent it on to City. We don't know

398
00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:17,040
Speaker 1: where it went after City, and yet we've seen Russian

399
00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:22,119
Speaker 1: CDs coming in substantially. Is the market being over confident? No,

400
00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:26,320
Speaker 1: you're right. The point is, UH, what you're talking about

401
00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:29,119
Speaker 1: is to coupon payments that were due a couple of

402
00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:33,040
Speaker 1: days ago, so they were already paid um with some delay,

403
00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:37,360
Speaker 1: which is not a very good sign. But we have

404
00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:42,919
Speaker 1: numerous more coupon payments and redemptions coming to UH in

405
00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:45,479
Speaker 1: the rest of the year and over the next twelve

406
00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:49,600
Speaker 1: eighteen months. So they and the thirtieth of March we'll

407
00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:53,520
Speaker 1: see another couple of interest payments worth about hundred and

408
00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:57,479
Speaker 1: ninety million dollars. So the market will be uh, you know,

409
00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:01,600
Speaker 1: holding eyes for it's breath for quite some time every

410
00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:04,200
Speaker 1: time these payments come. Do Christian. In the meantime, I

411
00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:07,800
Speaker 1: wonder how you think the global pool let's say central

412
00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:10,000
Speaker 1: bank reserves and the denomination of them it's going to

413
00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:12,320
Speaker 1: evolve in the coming months. If you are a central

414
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:14,679
Speaker 1: bank after a leader of let's say, a state with

415
00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:17,639
Speaker 1: questionable leadership in the eyes of the West, what you

416
00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:21,760
Speaker 1: would do with your dollar reserves right now? We are

417
00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:23,680
Speaker 1: you're quite right. First of all, I wouldn't want to

418
00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:26,720
Speaker 1: be on the bed side of of the US that

419
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:32,640
Speaker 1: has weaponized the international reserves in a way of um,

420
00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:38,399
Speaker 1: you know, freezing dollar assets. The first the first the

421
00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:41,600
Speaker 1: first point is where do I diversify my reserves into

422
00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:45,000
Speaker 1: into euro, but the Euro is also subject to the

423
00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:49,360
Speaker 1: same risks. Then you can go into Raminbi, but Rominbi

424
00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:53,520
Speaker 1: is not really a currency that you can just yet

425
00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:57,440
Speaker 1: use for international payments. Uh So it's um, it's a

426
00:23:57,440 --> 00:24:01,080
Speaker 1: bit of a conundrum. Maybe goal you can be in

427
00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:04,600
Speaker 1: physical gold, but that's not as liquid as currencies. So

428
00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:08,560
Speaker 1: wherever you go, you know, the dollar is the global

429
00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:13,200
Speaker 1: reserve currency and forty good reason. Christian. Do you think

430
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:15,520
Speaker 1: that there's still is a very real risk going back

431
00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:18,800
Speaker 1: to the Russian default scenario, that the payment could get

432
00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:20,960
Speaker 1: stuck in the pipes? I mean this has been something

433
00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:24,080
Speaker 1: that we've been talking about. We really haven't seen this before.

434
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:28,600
Speaker 1: Are there bigger implications for this? Yes, that's uh, that's

435
00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:33,280
Speaker 1: probably the biggest risk because Russia is demonstrated to have

436
00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:37,240
Speaker 1: at least for now, willingness to pay. They definitely have

437
00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:41,720
Speaker 1: the capability to pay until they drain cash available in

438
00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:46,840
Speaker 1: these person accounts. The question is it even a default

439
00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:50,000
Speaker 1: if a payment doesn't reach the bond holders, not because

440
00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:55,119
Speaker 1: the the doctor didn't make the payment, but because there

441
00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:59,879
Speaker 1: are restrictions and international sanctions. I think this is completely

442
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:03,480
Speaker 1: charity territory and you will be very controversial, but the

443
00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:07,400
Speaker 1: risk is very real. Christian, We've got to leave it there.

444
00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:10,320
Speaker 1: This is a fascinating conversation. We'd love to continue it

445
