I'm Jonathan Ferrow, along 3 00:00:15,520 --> 00:00:18,720 Speaker 2: with Lisa Bromwitz and Amrie Hordert. Join us each day 4 00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:22,280 Speaker 2: for insight from the best in markets, economics, and geopolitics 5 00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:24,880 Speaker 2: from our global headquarters in New York City. We are 6 00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:27,680 Speaker 2: live on Bloomberg Television weekday mornings from six to nine 7 00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:31,319 Speaker 2: am Eastern. Subscribe to the podcast on Apple, Spotify or 8 00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:33,960 Speaker 2: anywhere else you listen, and as always on the Bloomberg 9 00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:38,080 Speaker 2: Terminal and the Bloomberg Business App. Francis Donald of RBC 10 00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:40,680 Speaker 2: has this to say, The timing of the government shutdown 11 00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:44,280 Speaker 2: is not ideal for the Federal Reserve. Limited visibility into 12 00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:49,440 Speaker 2: the September data increases the probability of an October pause. 13 00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:51,600 Speaker 2: Francis joins us now from More Francis, good morning. 14 00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:52,360 Speaker 3: It's good morning. 15 00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:54,280 Speaker 2: So this is a slightly different say because we've had 16 00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:55,880 Speaker 2: a guests come on the program and say they're not 17 00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:58,560 Speaker 2: going to deviate from the dot plot. Ultimately they're expecting 18 00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:01,320 Speaker 2: a raid cut still in our Why wou'd this lead 19 00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:02,120 Speaker 2: to a pause. 20 00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:04,560 Speaker 4: Well, let's remember chir Powell has talked a lot in 21 00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:06,720 Speaker 4: the past, when you're walking in a room and it 22 00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:10,560 Speaker 4: goes dark, you go more slowly, you don't necessarily speed up. 23 00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:12,800 Speaker 4: And at the end of the day, we have to 24 00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:16,720 Speaker 4: remember this shutdown is compounding an existing problem, which is 25 00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:21,200 Speaker 4: that our data is being substantially distorted by tariff developments 26 00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 4: front loading inventories. We know that companies, clients that we 27 00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:28,240 Speaker 4: talk to and others are finding ways to navigate around 28 00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:32,120 Speaker 4: that using things like bonded warehouses for example, or changing 29 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:35,000 Speaker 4: the timing of their purchases. And then on top of that, 30 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 4: now we're going to miss probably a month of solid 31 00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:40,319 Speaker 4: evidence as to what actually happened in there. So from 32 00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 4: our point of view, just like a company or a 33 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:44,959 Speaker 4: consumer at the end of the day is maybe going 34 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 4: to say, let's be a little bit more cautious. To us, 35 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:49,920 Speaker 4: this is going to raise more questions than it is 36 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,560 Speaker 4: make it very clear what the definitive path ahead should be. 37 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:54,720 Speaker 2: So A Marie was talking about this earlier on this morning. 38 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 2: The data itself has been a problem. How dependable is 39 00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:00,960 Speaker 2: the data anyway for this federal Well, this is. 40 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:03,320 Speaker 4: The thing for economists right now is there is already 41 00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:06,680 Speaker 4: a giant question mark around what data should we be using, 42 00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:09,520 Speaker 4: are there biases within the data? Were there will there 43 00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:12,120 Speaker 4: be on a go forward basis. We've already for years 44 00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:14,520 Speaker 4: been dealing with low response rates, and we know that 45 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:16,680 Speaker 4: the economy is operating in a way that changes the 46 00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:19,360 Speaker 4: way we need to use data. Confidence data, for example, 47 00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 4: in our view, is still very valuable. It explains how 48 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:24,520 Speaker 4: consumers are feeling. But if the top ten percent of 49 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:27,079 Speaker 4: consumers are spending fifty percent of all of the consumption, 50 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:29,840 Speaker 4: then confidence data is not the same valuable tool it 51 00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 4: was in the past. Layer on top of that tariffs 52 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 4: and we've been really in a dark place with respect 53 00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 4: to how we can read visibly. And that's why, in 54 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:40,080 Speaker 4: a way, John, I'm not that upset that we're going 55 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:41,920 Speaker 4: to miss a month of data because I think there's 56 00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:44,959 Speaker 4: so much obsession over this month to month, in part 57 00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:47,919 Speaker 4: driven by the FED, that's highly data dependent. We need 58 00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:49,519 Speaker 4: to focus on some of the bigger trends, and the 59 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 4: bigger trends are clear. This is a labor market that 60 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 4: is structurally very different. We don't need the same amount 61 00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:56,640 Speaker 4: of job growth as we did before. We only believe 62 00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 4: that this needs This economy needs to create forty thousand 63 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:01,640 Speaker 4: jobs a month the unemployment rate to stay stable. We 64 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 4: know growth is slowing off the back of tariffs and 65 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 4: some price pressures that are coming through, and we know 66 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:09,360 Speaker 4: inflation is likely to reaccelerate into year end. And I 67 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:11,600 Speaker 4: could for a month go dark on data and tell 68 00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:13,680 Speaker 4: you that I'm still fairly confident that will be the 69 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 4: story thirty days from now. But when, of course we're 70 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:19,639 Speaker 4: hypersensitive and we're in an environment where policy makers are 71 00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:22,080 Speaker 4: really trying to move months to month, of course the 72 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:24,240 Speaker 4: market is going to feel a little more uncomfortable with 73 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 4: that lack of visibility. 74 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:27,280 Speaker 5: Are you saying the FED is too data dependent? 75 00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:30,680 Speaker 4: Well, no, What we're saying is that the month to 76 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:34,239 Speaker 4: month variability in data, this has always been true, sometimes 77 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:36,320 Speaker 4: leads us in the wrong directions. And I think what's 78 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:39,400 Speaker 4: really challenging right now is that that tariff distortion is 79 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:42,000 Speaker 4: very much still in play. We hear all the time, oh, 80 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 4: tariffs are not inflationary. That may turn out to be true, 81 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 4: it's not our view, but we won't know that till 82 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 4: the middle of twenty twenty six. So the issue with 83 00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,880 Speaker 4: data dependence right now isn't data dependence in and of itself. 84 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:56,120 Speaker 4: It's data dependence in an environment where we don't have 85 00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 4: good reads and our month to month data is not 86 00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 4: telling us the true story of the amare economy or 87 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:01,560 Speaker 4: the American consumer. 88 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 5: So what do you look at in daylight today? You're 89 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 5: not getting the job support. What's your north star in 90 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:07,800 Speaker 5: terms of directing you towards these trends? 91 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 4: Well, today's not actually the problem. So any economists would 92 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:13,640 Speaker 4: have released their estimate for where jobs would be last 93 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 4: week and everybody's week ahead. Our estimate was fifty two thousand. 94 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 4: The problem will be next month when we don't have 95 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:22,039 Speaker 4: the aggregate amount of data that helps us forecast what 96 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 4: happens next. At the end of the day, we tail 97 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,720 Speaker 4: clients focus on the trend. We think the unemployment rate 98 00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 4: will rise gradually to four and a half four point 99 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 4: six percent. But we've been through a few cycles, all 100 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:33,000 Speaker 4: of us at this table, if I may say that, 101 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 4: we know that four point six percent unemployment is still 102 00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:39,560 Speaker 4: very low, very tight labor market underneath the surface. So 103 00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 4: we are doing what we've been doing for the last year, 104 00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:45,159 Speaker 4: much more bottom up work, much more sector focus. Look 105 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 4: at your actual end consumer, which one are you servicing, 106 00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:49,840 Speaker 4: which one are you investing in? And look at their 107 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:52,159 Speaker 4: individual stories, and then of course we have a table 108 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:54,360 Speaker 4: of all the indicators that we look at, from warn 109 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:56,960 Speaker 4: notices to LinkedIn postings that help us get a little 110 00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 4: bit more of a month to month gauge. But the 111 00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:01,080 Speaker 4: message here is actually one of leef focus on the 112 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:03,200 Speaker 4: big picture that's probably going to guide you towards better 113 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 4: investment decisions and better operating decisions if you're running a business. 114 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:07,719 Speaker 2: You'll forgive me for bringing out the shutdown then, but 115 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 2: we do have to talk about it just a little bit, 116 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 2: the government shut down in Washington. It can't have implications 117 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:13,960 Speaker 2: for the economy. Typically we know how the movie goes. 118 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 2: Economy has a bit of a blit, then we accelerate, 119 00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:18,480 Speaker 2: we pick up again, and we look through the whole thing. 120 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:20,440 Speaker 2: And that's ult to me. How markets play this story too? 121 00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:23,839 Speaker 2: Do you see it's delayed deferred activity? Or are we 122 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 2: at this point where things are a little bit more 123 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 2: frenchiolet than where things could be somewhat derailed. 124 00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 4: Well, I watch your show in the mornings, and I'll 125 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 4: repeat what just about every economist has told you. Our 126 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:35,119 Speaker 4: traditional rule of thumb is the shutdown is worth aboute 127 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:37,760 Speaker 4: point one percentage points of GDP each week that it 128 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:40,480 Speaker 4: goes on, and then it becomes nonlinear, likely around the 129 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:42,800 Speaker 4: middle of the month. The longer it's out, the more 130 00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:45,160 Speaker 4: it bleeds. For the economy. We're focused on some of 131 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 4: the things related to contract workers as well, so all 132 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:51,360 Speaker 4: the economy that circulates around the government that may see 133 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:53,240 Speaker 4: a pause at the end of the day. You know, 134 00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:56,240 Speaker 4: I talk about the shutdown being emblematic of larger trends, 135 00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:58,720 Speaker 4: and there's two that sort of worry us. This economy 136 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:02,800 Speaker 4: was already slowing down, so these additional bumps, they exacerbate 137 00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:05,360 Speaker 4: the problem. They exacerbate the uncertainty component. 138 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 6: But under the. 139 00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 4: Surface, we've also in the past year again we're thinking 140 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:11,160 Speaker 4: about how this relates to the bigger trends, been much 141 00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:13,479 Speaker 4: more focused on the fiscal side of the picture, the 142 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:16,039 Speaker 4: policy side of the picture, than the monetary policy side 143 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 4: of the picture. And that's largely because this economy is 144 00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:21,120 Speaker 4: becoming less sensitive to the Fed's next move and much 145 00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:23,080 Speaker 4: more sensitive to what's happening in Washington. 146 00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:24,360 Speaker 3: We see this in the yield curve. 147 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 4: We see this at the long end of the curve, 148 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:28,800 Speaker 4: but many Americans are leveraged to the belly and the 149 00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:30,839 Speaker 4: long end of the yield curve with the FED is 150 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:34,880 Speaker 4: not successfully being able to influence at this point of view, 151 00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:39,120 Speaker 4: So acrimonious Washington, to me, is not necessarily about the 152 00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:42,680 Speaker 4: GDP impact for September or October. It's about this transformation 153 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:45,200 Speaker 4: where we move away from monetary policy being the core 154 00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:47,839 Speaker 4: driver of the business cycle and realize that if we 155 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 4: really want to know where are we, we have to 156 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:53,400 Speaker 4: watch fiscal spending, the deficit and the path for that ahead. 157 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,080 Speaker 5: Is this shut down different though? If Trump decides to 158 00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 5: make these furloughs permanent. 159 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 4: Absolutely, And so when we look at the numbers, for example, 160 00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:06,080 Speaker 4: if we were to see and this is the extreme example, 161 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:09,160 Speaker 4: this wouldn't happen. But if by October seventeenth, that'll be 162 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:12,000 Speaker 4: the reference week for next month's job number, if we 163 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 4: haven't seen folks come back, you could see the unemployment 164 00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:17,200 Speaker 4: rate jump to four point eight percent. Now, our estimate 165 00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:19,400 Speaker 4: is that it would then come back down. But these 166 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:21,440 Speaker 4: are the types of numbers that begin to skew the 167 00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:22,400 Speaker 4: story we're certain down. 168 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 5: I'm saying, if he decides to say, I actually want 169 00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 5: to move more people into the private sector, and I'm 170 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:31,280 Speaker 5: getting rid of these offices, these jobs. Isn't that more 171 00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:32,239 Speaker 5: of a permanent effect. 172 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:34,840 Speaker 4: Absolutely, that would be more permanent, but that number is 173 00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:37,360 Speaker 4: ultimately probably going to be quite small. But the most 174 00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:39,640 Speaker 4: extreme thing, let's say every person would be laid off, 175 00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 4: which is not going to happen, you would see that 176 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 4: number jump to four point eight. Again, this is emplematic 177 00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 4: of the bigger picture, which is job growth is slowing. 178 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 4: We are going to see less job creation on a 179 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 4: go forward basis, with the exception of healthcare. Healthcare is 180 00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:55,440 Speaker 4: going to continue to be fairly robust there. So this 181 00:07:55,520 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 4: is the trend continuing. Slower job growth, slower overall growth, 182 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 4: less confidence in the economy, and reduced data visibility. It is, 183 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 4: as we say, stagflation. 184 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:08,600 Speaker 6: Light stay with us. 185 00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:21,400 Speaker 2: More Bloomberg surveillance coming up after this. Let's get to Tesla. 186 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 2: I promise you an update. Shares recovering this morning high 187 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:26,800 Speaker 2: by a little more than one percent of following yesterday's slide, 188 00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:30,560 Speaker 2: which followed the company reporting record third quarter deliveries. Dan 189 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 2: ives of Webbush maintaining is outperform rating and writing the 190 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:36,679 Speaker 2: following with must now driving Tesla into its next stage 191 00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:39,800 Speaker 2: of growth. As Wartime CEO, we estimate the AI and 192 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:43,360 Speaker 2: autonomous opportunity is worth at least one trillion dollars alone, 193 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 2: Dan joins us. Now for more, Dan welcome, Let's just 194 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:47,480 Speaker 2: start with yesterday's move. Then we'll get to the future 195 00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:50,560 Speaker 2: and all that great stuff. How much of that story 196 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:56,959 Speaker 2: with the deliveries, which is a massive pull forward in demand. 197 00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:57,520 Speaker 7: I think probably about thirty percent of it was maybe 198 00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:00,960 Speaker 7: a pull forward your relative to incremental b But look, 199 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:04,800 Speaker 7: the demands story is stabilizing, and now I think you're 200 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:07,040 Speaker 7: starting to see that turnaround happen. 201 00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:09,679 Speaker 8: But as we've talked about, that's just the appetizer. 202 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:13,840 Speaker 7: The main event is the AI revolution coming to Tesla 203 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 7: with the autonomous and then the robotics piece. I mean, 204 00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:19,600 Speaker 7: I think there's gonna be a three trillion dollar mark cav. 205 00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:22,240 Speaker 7: That's why I think six hundred dollars is almost a 206 00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:23,679 Speaker 7: be's keys for where we see it. 207 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:25,760 Speaker 2: So Dan, you understand the tension well. I feel like 208 00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:27,760 Speaker 2: we've covered this together a million times, But it's the 209 00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:30,600 Speaker 2: tension between the near term fundamentals and the long term 210 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 2: hope and dreams. The fundamentals at the moment when you 211 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 2: say the demand story stabilizing, stabilizing demand, it's not the 212 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:41,200 Speaker 2: kind of story we'd associate with a multiple like the 213 00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:43,800 Speaker 2: one on Tesla right now, Now, Dan, how are we 214 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:44,120 Speaker 2: going to. 215 00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 6: Resolve those issues? 216 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:47,240 Speaker 2: Do we just keep the faith in the multiple and 217 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:48,679 Speaker 2: the stock and the hopes and dreams, or at some 218 00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:51,240 Speaker 2: times do we have to reconcile these issues. 219 00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:54,400 Speaker 8: Yeah, it's a great point. Look, you're gonna have ten. 220 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:57,240 Speaker 7: Million Teslas on the root and when you think about 221 00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 7: since the beginningonomous value, as you start to see robotaxis 222 00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:07,760 Speaker 7: to point thirty thirty five cities, you see full self driving, 223 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:11,240 Speaker 7: get the forty fifty percent of the actual Tesla's out there, 224 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:14,280 Speaker 7: that's the game changer because ultimately I think they're going 225 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 7: to own eighty ninety percent of the autonomous world over 226 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:20,160 Speaker 7: the coming years as we get the true what I've 227 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:22,160 Speaker 7: used level for Look, I. 228 00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,959 Speaker 8: Think that's the reality. I think investors are looking. 229 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:29,160 Speaker 7: Autonomous is truly what I view is really you know, 230 00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 7: the Goldilock scenario for Tesla because AI physical AI. There's 231 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:38,520 Speaker 7: two great physical phenomenal AI plays out there. 232 00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:41,160 Speaker 8: It's in Nvidia and it's Tesla. When it comes to 233 00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:42,000 Speaker 8: physical AI. 234 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:45,480 Speaker 5: When it comes to EVS. For Tesla, one of the 235 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:49,040 Speaker 5: biggest competitors is BID, which is absolutely crushing them in Europe. 236 00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:51,280 Speaker 5: When it comes to autonomous, who is going to be 237 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 5: their biggest competitor? Is it coming from China? 238 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:56,840 Speaker 7: Look, I think it comes from China ultimately, you know, 239 00:10:57,160 --> 00:11:00,400 Speaker 7: when you think about all the technology, you know insis 240 00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:02,559 Speaker 7: that we've seen there, But globally, no one has a 241 00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:07,200 Speaker 7: scaling the scope of Tesla not you know, Look, I 242 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:10,400 Speaker 7: think dy D is obviously going to be the main competition. 243 00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:14,240 Speaker 7: But when I think about scale and scope globally, especially 244 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:16,720 Speaker 7: not just in the US, but what we see around 245 00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:19,920 Speaker 7: the world, I think Tesla continues to win that battle. 246 00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:21,320 Speaker 8: But we don't. 247 00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:24,080 Speaker 7: Also, we don't view this as one where there's just 248 00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:27,440 Speaker 7: one winner. And I think when you think about autonomous 249 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 7: and you think about this next wave of AI, you know, 250 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:34,079 Speaker 7: from the chips to the software to the ripple e fact, 251 00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:37,840 Speaker 7: it speaks to our view like this AI revolution, we're 252 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:41,079 Speaker 7: still in the second inning of a nine inning game 253 00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:43,800 Speaker 7: and ultimately Yankees end up winning that game. 254 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:46,840 Speaker 2: Don't encourage it to. We'll get to that later. Then 255 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:49,040 Speaker 2: let's say you're right, let's find some common ground. The 256 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:53,360 Speaker 2: autonomous opportunity is massive drivelist vehicles, all of that stuff 257 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:54,959 Speaker 2: I think a lot of people can get on board 258 00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 2: with that. But I want to understand why you think 259 00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:01,080 Speaker 2: the Tesla path that road is the road's success. So 260 00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:04,640 Speaker 2: they're using cameras, Weymous using landa. What kind of technology 261 00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:07,760 Speaker 2: do you ultimately think wins out look? 262 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:11,199 Speaker 7: I think it's ultimate Tesla from a data perspective. 263 00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 8: When you look at the AI engineers and you look. 264 00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:16,160 Speaker 7: At all the improvements that they're going to make on 265 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:17,959 Speaker 7: these next you know sometime. 266 00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:20,520 Speaker 6: Let's just give me a second. What dates are you 267 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:21,040 Speaker 6: looking at? 268 00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:24,000 Speaker 2: Because I can go off the weekly trips that Weymous 269 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 2: do in at the moment and that kind of dates, 270 00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:26,840 Speaker 2: it looks pretty decent. 271 00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:28,640 Speaker 6: What are you stacking that up against? 272 00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 7: I look at as Weimo, there're two hundred thousand dollar 273 00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:33,960 Speaker 7: cars and essentially five cities. 274 00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 8: The scaling scope that Tesla has. 275 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:39,599 Speaker 7: Given, the millions and millions of miles driven and the 276 00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:42,640 Speaker 7: ten million vehicles in the road, and everything that they're 277 00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 7: doing in Moscow is being wartime CEO. That's where I 278 00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:49,040 Speaker 7: think we see there six months from now, the breakthroughs 279 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:51,840 Speaker 7: will happen, and ultimately when it comes to scale, especially 280 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:53,959 Speaker 7: when you look at robotax and cybercaps. 281 00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:56,000 Speaker 8: No one's going to be able to match, Tessa. 282 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,520 Speaker 7: I view that as just basically what was fact as 283 00:12:58,520 --> 00:12:59,560 Speaker 7: it plays out. 284 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 5: So Dan, when it comes to deliveries, they don't even 285 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:04,280 Speaker 5: matter Anymoreks, everyone's so focused on what's going to happen 286 00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:04,800 Speaker 5: in the future. 287 00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:09,079 Speaker 7: Look, they matter in terms of just we'll call it. 288 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:12,520 Speaker 7: I guess a signal from a stabilization respective, especially after 289 00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:14,920 Speaker 7: what we've seen over the last six nine months. But 290 00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:19,960 Speaker 7: I think from an investor perspective, it's all about to 291 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:23,359 Speaker 7: a PHARAOHSTO might just like give me marks on autonomous 292 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:27,960 Speaker 7: show me the technology innovations, on the AI story, show 293 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:29,720 Speaker 7: me that we're going to get the full scale, and 294 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:32,680 Speaker 7: optimists show me in November to shareolder me that they're 295 00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:35,120 Speaker 7: going to have a big piece of XAI. I mean, 296 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:37,920 Speaker 7: that's why you see Musk. It's a different mood now. 297 00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:41,400 Speaker 7: It's that wartime CEO that we're seeing. Those are the marks, 298 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:43,520 Speaker 7: and that's how we're going to be looking at six hundred, 299 00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:46,319 Speaker 7: seven hundred and ultimately you know a stock I think 300 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 7: three trillion. 301 00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:49,320 Speaker 6: That's the lots of play for the road ahead. 302 00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:49,559 Speaker 7: Dan. 303 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:51,920 Speaker 2: Before we leave here, the baseball you want to finish 304 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:54,079 Speaker 2: there Yankees when getting it done? Who do you think 305 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:56,280 Speaker 2: it's this all done world series like of this year? 306 00:13:57,559 --> 00:13:59,959 Speaker 7: Look, I mean I think Yankees obviously have a great 307 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:03,559 Speaker 7: each to go. I think they're going to surprise many 308 00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:07,040 Speaker 7: out there. I think this could be their year. And look, 309 00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:09,280 Speaker 7: Emory there obviously is a good walk charm. 310 00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:10,920 Speaker 8: So we got to see how the players out Have. 311 00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:11,960 Speaker 6: We given up on Penn State? 312 00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:12,199 Speaker 7: Dan? 313 00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:13,000 Speaker 6: Are we done with that? 314 00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:13,240 Speaker 2: Now? 315 00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:14,840 Speaker 8: Look? 316 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:17,880 Speaker 7: I'm here, Ombassady at u c A the bounds back starts. 317 00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,920 Speaker 7: That's another one Penn State Yankees. 318 00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:24,480 Speaker 8: At the at the end, they'll be whole troupe. 319 00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:26,480 Speaker 6: Stay with us. 320 00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:39,960 Speaker 2: Mulblinpax surveillance coming up after this. Janet Loo Shatikas joins 321 00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:41,880 Speaker 2: us now for more Janet. As you know, as is 322 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:44,000 Speaker 2: often the case, this is one or lost in the 323 00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 2: court of public opinion. 324 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 6: Who's winning to lose in right now? 325 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:48,360 Speaker 8: Yeah? 326 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:49,840 Speaker 1: I mean right now? I think if you look at 327 00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:52,520 Speaker 1: the poll, do you do see that Republicans are getting 328 00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:55,160 Speaker 1: a little bit more blame than Democrats are currently, But 329 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:58,200 Speaker 1: both parties are getting a hit from this, and in 330 00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:02,040 Speaker 1: general we do see that both per generally do get 331 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:05,400 Speaker 1: some backlash for a government shutdown. The same thing happened 332 00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:09,720 Speaker 1: in twenty thirteen, with President Obama getting some of the blame. 333 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:12,640 Speaker 1: Even the Republicans kind of put the government into a shutdown. 334 00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:16,000 Speaker 1: So both parties may ultimately suffer from this, and that's 335 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,440 Speaker 1: how they kind of have to figure out who's suffering more. 336 00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:21,160 Speaker 1: Is where their the pain point may be to actually 337 00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 1: get the government to reopen. 338 00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:24,560 Speaker 5: Jennett, what do you say is the off ramp? 339 00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:29,320 Speaker 1: So this is going to be kind of a difficult situation. 340 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 1: So the parties are kind of far apart right now. 341 00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:35,080 Speaker 1: The Republicans do agree that probably something does need to 342 00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:37,800 Speaker 1: be done to extend the ACA subsidies, probably a short 343 00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:40,920 Speaker 1: term extension, maybe a year, maybe a year, with some 344 00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:44,920 Speaker 1: amendments of reforms to the process, and so the Democrats 345 00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:47,440 Speaker 1: are pushing for that, but the Republicans are also saying 346 00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:50,080 Speaker 1: that they can't do anything until the government is reopened, 347 00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:54,440 Speaker 1: while the Democrats are nervous that the Republicans will not 348 00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:56,880 Speaker 1: hold their word on this. So what we're thinking is 349 00:15:56,880 --> 00:15:58,680 Speaker 1: that probably what you're going to have to see is 350 00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:02,560 Speaker 1: either a major political pressure coming in, which would mean 351 00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:05,000 Speaker 1: we're seeing missed paychecks in the middle of the month 352 00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:08,400 Speaker 1: for our military members for Congressional staff, which will also 353 00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:11,640 Speaker 1: put pressure. But then also do the moderate members come 354 00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:14,120 Speaker 1: together to figure out how they can figure out some 355 00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:16,840 Speaker 1: sort of agreement to get us out of this shutdown. 356 00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:19,880 Speaker 1: It probably will have to be in some form around 357 00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:23,800 Speaker 1: the AC subsidies. The longer this goes on, this could 358 00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:26,800 Speaker 1: last two to three weeks, just depending if we don't 359 00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 1: see any momentum towards a deal. As we get later 360 00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:32,240 Speaker 1: into the month, you have the miss paychecks that as pressure. 361 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:34,760 Speaker 1: You start to maybe get some of these premium increase 362 00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:37,440 Speaker 1: announces that will add pressure and that could be where 363 00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:38,720 Speaker 1: we see the ultimate solution. 364 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:41,120 Speaker 5: Well, the Republicans already picked up three votes in terms 365 00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:44,960 Speaker 5: of Democrats willing to vote for the clean stopgap funding measure. 366 00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:46,760 Speaker 5: Who else should we be looking at? 367 00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:51,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think you look at retiring members, So members 368 00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:54,720 Speaker 1: like Senator Shaheen from New Hampshire, Senator Peters from Michigan 369 00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:58,840 Speaker 1: also watching the Virginia senators since they have a significant 370 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:03,040 Speaker 1: portion of the workforce in their constituencies. Those will also 371 00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 1: be key members to watch, so we would want to 372 00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:08,760 Speaker 1: see if there are they have a vote today. Do 373 00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:13,600 Speaker 1: more Democratic senators join on to the clean CR or 374 00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:16,040 Speaker 1: do we go into the weekend and have no movement 375 00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:18,640 Speaker 1: at all. If we do see more Democratic centers join, 376 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:21,320 Speaker 1: then obviously that would be showing a sign that there 377 00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:24,280 Speaker 1: is more pressure to get to a deal at some point. 378 00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:26,840 Speaker 1: But if we don't, this could definitely start to linger 379 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:29,159 Speaker 1: a lot longer into next week and potentially even the 380 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:29,760 Speaker 1: following week. 381 00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:31,960 Speaker 5: And how are you thinking about the president's meeting with 382 00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:34,320 Speaker 5: russ Vote yesterday and whether or not he was going 383 00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:37,800 Speaker 5: to be making layoffs that usually historically are just furloughs 384 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:40,240 Speaker 5: and those individuals come back to their job permanent. 385 00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:43,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, this is obviously at least a threat. 386 00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:46,960 Speaker 1: So this is something that they think the administration would 387 00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:49,000 Speaker 1: like to do, and they see this as an opportunity. 388 00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:51,240 Speaker 1: This is one of the reasons that Democrats were actually 389 00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:53,840 Speaker 1: worried about having a government shut down the first place, 390 00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:56,119 Speaker 1: because they thought that this could be a tactic that 391 00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:58,680 Speaker 1: the administration would use. But then at the same time, 392 00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:02,960 Speaker 1: you're also seeing demo prats getting some support among the 393 00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:06,040 Speaker 1: federal worker unions saying it's okay that you're doing the 394 00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:09,560 Speaker 1: shutdown because we know we're under attack anyways from this administration. 395 00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:12,399 Speaker 1: So there's a little bit of We could probably definitely 396 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:15,800 Speaker 1: see some layoffs, some permanent layoffs, but then they also 397 00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:18,520 Speaker 1: may be challenged by the courts and that also could 398 00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:21,000 Speaker 1: play into public opinion as well. So that also could 399 00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:24,200 Speaker 1: be something that depending on how these play out, that 400 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:27,560 Speaker 1: could be key to which side actually gets more blane 401 00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:30,800 Speaker 1: and where the pressure ends up being longer. 402 00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:32,920 Speaker 6: Term stay with us. 403 00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:45,560 Speaker 2: More Bloomberg surveillance coming up after this. Let's turn back 404 00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:47,560 Speaker 2: to market. So the S and P five hundred is 405 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:50,159 Speaker 2: looking for a sixth consecutive day of gains. It's on 406 00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:52,360 Speaker 2: a five day winning run, the longest street gone back 407 00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:55,119 Speaker 2: to late July. Jeff Rosenberg of black Rock has this 408 00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:57,920 Speaker 2: to say. We believe the current market backdrop masks the 409 00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:02,560 Speaker 2: high level of dispersion within the economy today. Jeff, John 410 00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:04,520 Speaker 2: just now for more. Jeff, welcome to the program, sir, 411 00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:05,320 Speaker 2: No payrolls. 412 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:06,760 Speaker 6: We're gonna have to get me deep and all the 413 00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:07,720 Speaker 6: other stuff. Jeff. 414 00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:09,800 Speaker 2: I think that what you just said in that quote 415 00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:12,760 Speaker 2: kind of builds on what we were discussing with regards 416 00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:14,760 Speaker 2: to the airlines. How much dispersion are you seeing? 417 00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:19,280 Speaker 9: Yeah, this is really about the difference between what you're 418 00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:21,280 Speaker 9: seeing on the on the top. 419 00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:23,280 Speaker 3: Line and the headline and what's going on underneath. 420 00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:25,600 Speaker 9: And we've talked about it a lot, you know, when 421 00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:28,960 Speaker 9: we do have payrolls or when we do have FMC meetings, 422 00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:30,760 Speaker 9: when Tom's with us, we talk a lot about the 423 00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:33,880 Speaker 9: K shaped recovery, about the differences between something you were 424 00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:36,520 Speaker 9: just talking about the top end and the bottom end. 425 00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:37,240 Speaker 3: And you see that. 426 00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:41,080 Speaker 9: Both for consumers but also within businesses. You have the 427 00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:45,440 Speaker 9: winners and you have the bottom end that is struggling, 428 00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:48,719 Speaker 9: and that is the recipe for dispersion. 429 00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:51,080 Speaker 3: And so when you take away kind of. 430 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:53,320 Speaker 9: The big headline that we might have been talking about today, 431 00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:55,719 Speaker 9: which is good for the economy, bad for the economy, 432 00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:58,800 Speaker 9: of stocks going up, stocks going down, you go underneath 433 00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:01,520 Speaker 9: the surface and there's a tremendous amount of churn. 434 00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:02,639 Speaker 3: Going on underneath. 435 00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:05,399 Speaker 9: And that when you take away kind of beta investing 436 00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:08,680 Speaker 9: and you focus on alpha investing, has created a tremendous 437 00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:11,480 Speaker 9: amount of opportunity. And you see that in some of 438 00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:16,639 Speaker 9: the returns that look at, say factor returns, stripping out 439 00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:18,840 Speaker 9: kind of directionality in the markets. 440 00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:20,800 Speaker 5: When you've joined us in July, you were talking about 441 00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:23,679 Speaker 5: a tricky environment ahead for the FED. How tricky, is 442 00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:27,200 Speaker 5: it now that they might miss an entire month of data. 443 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:30,960 Speaker 9: Yeah, So if we shift back to kind of the 444 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:35,480 Speaker 9: data problem it is, it's tricky for the FED, it's 445 00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:38,439 Speaker 9: tricky for us in investors. You know, I was going 446 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 9: to suggest that, you know, if we wanted to look 447 00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:43,800 Speaker 9: at and maybe your producers can do this quickly. The 448 00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 9: one area that might be benefiting from this lack of 449 00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:51,840 Speaker 9: data is interest rate uncertainty. So maybe put up a 450 00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:54,680 Speaker 9: chart of the move index, which is collapsed here. 451 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:56,360 Speaker 3: But you look at kind of. 452 00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:58,520 Speaker 9: What we've been talking about this morning around the lack 453 00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:00,959 Speaker 9: of data, and you have a lot of agreement. The 454 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:03,359 Speaker 9: good news is you've got a lot of alternative data, 455 00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:05,359 Speaker 9: but kind of the bad news is none of us 456 00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:08,880 Speaker 9: can agree as to what that alternative data means. Good 457 00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:12,800 Speaker 9: example is, and I saw this morning two different estimates 458 00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:16,160 Speaker 9: from alternative data, one using state filings, the other looking 459 00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:20,639 Speaker 9: at extrapolating initial claims forecasts off a challenger layoffs. They 460 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:25,480 Speaker 9: came up with completely different conclusions. Another example, on the 461 00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:29,760 Speaker 9: earlier segment, you were talking to Manpower talking about switchers 462 00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:31,920 Speaker 9: and the lack of switching, but you look at the 463 00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:35,920 Speaker 9: Atlanta FED wage data and you know, switching wages actually 464 00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:38,920 Speaker 9: went up a little bit, so in the cacaphony, I 465 00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:42,760 Speaker 9: think the benefit might accrue to uncertainty, although that doesn't 466 00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:44,160 Speaker 9: make the FEDS job any easier. 467 00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:46,560 Speaker 5: Well, if you had to decide what your top three 468 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:48,560 Speaker 5: data points were, what would they be? 469 00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:53,840 Speaker 9: You know, when we're talking about the payroll data and 470 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:57,320 Speaker 9: the lack of payroll data, you know, I turned to 471 00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:01,280 Speaker 9: the wage data and looking at inferences from that. 472 00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:03,080 Speaker 3: We have the Atlanta Fed wage data. 473 00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:06,320 Speaker 9: We have a lot of private sources in terms of 474 00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:07,680 Speaker 9: what you can scrape. 475 00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:09,400 Speaker 3: I'd like that alternative data. 476 00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:12,360 Speaker 9: We've used that a lot in terms of both frequency 477 00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:16,040 Speaker 9: and turning points. That would be you know, kind of 478 00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:19,240 Speaker 9: data point number one. I think, And Jonathan, you made 479 00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:22,439 Speaker 9: reference to this earlier about the inflation data, and you know, 480 00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:24,080 Speaker 9: whether we're going to start to lose some of that. 481 00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:26,840 Speaker 9: I think the good news there is that with the 482 00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:30,119 Speaker 9: webscrape data, we have a lot of uh, you know, 483 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:32,800 Speaker 9: kind of consistency around where what people are looking at. 484 00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:36,040 Speaker 9: In terms of alternative forms of data, people talk about 485 00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:36,960 Speaker 9: the price stats data. 486 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:39,399 Speaker 3: I think that's a that's a good form. 487 00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:41,760 Speaker 9: And then I think the pivot to the private data 488 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:45,560 Speaker 9: that you mentioned where we hope will continue to get 489 00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:48,000 Speaker 9: that the survey data, the PMIS, they take on a 490 00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:51,400 Speaker 9: heightened you know, importance in this environment of the lack 491 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:53,760 Speaker 9: of the government data. We have to caveat that with 492 00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:57,480 Speaker 9: the notion that the kind of accuracy that we've seen 493 00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:01,240 Speaker 9: from the survey data the PMI data in terms of 494 00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:04,200 Speaker 9: its importance for this kind of economy, that's that's really 495 00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:07,240 Speaker 9: kind of gone down. And we've seen a decrease in 496 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:10,840 Speaker 9: the correlation between the PMI data and say, the industrial 497 00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:13,159 Speaker 9: production data in this cycle, so that that's sort of 498 00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:14,960 Speaker 9: a caveat to that third data point. 499 00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:17,800 Speaker 2: And Jeff, we've talked about five six, seven minutes about 500 00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:21,080 Speaker 2: economic data. If I'd given you the payrolls dates or 501 00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:24,040 Speaker 2: the start of the year for the next nine months, 502 00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:25,840 Speaker 2: I think you would have tried it this market and 503 00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:27,960 Speaker 2: completely the wrong way. So I just wanted to Jeff, 504 00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:30,240 Speaker 2: what is the relevant data point right now, because clearly 505 00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:32,320 Speaker 2: some dates is more important than others. 506 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:37,240 Speaker 9: Yeah, that's that's absolutely you know, it's absolutely the case. 507 00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:40,280 Speaker 9: And it's you know, the classical sort of break between 508 00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:43,679 Speaker 9: kind of growth and inflation and the pivot as to 509 00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:46,679 Speaker 9: which one has the focus of the market, and you know, 510 00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:49,600 Speaker 9: going into before we had the shutdown, you know, the 511 00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:52,920 Speaker 9: other conversation would have been that this is the pivot 512 00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:57,080 Speaker 9: away from the inflation concerns towards the growth concerns, and 513 00:23:57,119 --> 00:24:00,359 Speaker 9: that the kind of you know, top tier data point 514 00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:02,920 Speaker 9: on payrolls is giving us that read on the growth 515 00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:06,080 Speaker 9: and the Fed's pivot towards a focus more on the 516 00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:07,720 Speaker 9: growth and less on the inflation. 517 00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:09,720 Speaker 3: And I think that's kind of the read here. 518 00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:11,560 Speaker 9: In contrast to the beginning of the year, where the 519 00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:14,199 Speaker 9: focus was on inflation the impact on tariffs and tariff 520 00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:16,800 Speaker 9: passed through, we really shifted that focus and I think 521 00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:20,159 Speaker 9: that's really the driver behind the directionality here and interest 522 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:22,719 Speaker 9: rates really the fear and the concerns to your earlier 523 00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:25,920 Speaker 9: conversation with Seth Carpenter around you know, is there this 524 00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:28,440 Speaker 9: lagged slow down, the lagged effect. 525 00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:29,800 Speaker 3: Remember, the tariff. 526 00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:32,920 Speaker 9: Impact that Seth's talking about is not about the inflation piece, 527 00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:36,680 Speaker 9: but it's on the real wage piece. That the temporary, 528 00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:40,040 Speaker 9: even if it is temporary impact in terms of the 529 00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:42,840 Speaker 9: inflation from tariffs, its impact. 530 00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:43,480 Speaker 3: Is on real wage growth. 531 00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:45,640 Speaker 9: And that's really about the growth side, and that's what's 532 00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:47,280 Speaker 9: driving the rates markets right now. 533 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 2: This is the Bloomberg Survendments Podcast, bringing you the best 534 00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:54,639 Speaker 2: in markets, economics, an gio politics.
