As 19 00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:05,040 Speaker 3: Animaletti head of Active Equity, it all spring global investments 20 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:08,840 Speaker 3: before we get into and welcome this question of do 21 00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:12,680 Speaker 3: we end up with just a stock picking market? Can 22 00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:15,399 Speaker 3: you pile in and get some sort of sense of 23 00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:18,240 Speaker 3: relief from the rally that seems to only be gaining steam. 24 00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:21,600 Speaker 4: It's a great question, Lisa, and I think the hardest 25 00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:25,560 Speaker 4: part for investors is do I stay on the sidelines 26 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:28,800 Speaker 4: or not? And we were talking earlier. Is the market 27 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:32,319 Speaker 4: really pulled and drawn by emotion? And it is, it 28 00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:35,120 Speaker 4: always has been, and so investors have to fight that 29 00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:39,319 Speaker 4: emotion every step of the way and remain disciplined. And 30 00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:42,720 Speaker 4: I think despite all of the kind of chaos that's 31 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:46,480 Speaker 4: happening around us and outside of us, within the economy, 32 00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 4: with the FED, with global global unrest, I think it's 33 00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 4: brought a lot of focus to our investment teams, and 34 00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:58,280 Speaker 4: what they're looking at is the narrow focus on which 35 00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:02,120 Speaker 4: stocks you want to own. Investors, when you're out of 36 00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:04,160 Speaker 4: the market, you have to be really careful about when 37 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:07,400 Speaker 4: you get in. What I tell people is, regardless if 38 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:12,399 Speaker 4: you know overall there's negativity or positivity, you really want 39 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:15,040 Speaker 4: to always have some allocation in equities. 40 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:20,720 Speaker 3: So let's pick some stocks in Vidia, Meta, Tesla. 41 00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:21,040 Speaker 2: You like all the popular ones. 42 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:23,359 Speaker 3: No, I'm just wondering, I mean, how do you basically 43 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:26,519 Speaker 3: understand what valuation even means at a time when things 44 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 3: are going to the moon based on promise of future invention. 45 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:31,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, I mean, I think what's been really 46 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 4: interesting is the flow in that we're seeing into equities 47 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 4: is going into index funds, right most most importantly, and 48 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 4: when that happens, investors are buying more of the big 49 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:47,200 Speaker 4: names and paying a lot more for those names. That's 50 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:49,640 Speaker 4: just the way it works. And so in a way, 51 00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 4: active managers are a little bit trying to not fight 52 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 4: that trend. We own some of those names too, but 53 00:02:56,560 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 4: we're also trying to find those names that haven't been recognized. 54 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:02,639 Speaker 4: We're really you know, like mining for a gold right now. 55 00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:05,679 Speaker 4: There are opportunities that do exist out there. 56 00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:09,840 Speaker 5: In an emotional market. Where do value stocks come in? 57 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:12,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a great question, Eila. And you know, as 58 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:16,960 Speaker 4: you saw in the beginning part actually last year, when 59 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:20,080 Speaker 4: the markets really started to kind of pay attention to value, 60 00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 4: there were good reasons for it. Multiples were compressing, and 61 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:27,359 Speaker 4: that's when investors went to value. I like to think 62 00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:31,480 Speaker 4: about it, like, don't discriminate between value and growth, right, 63 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 4: you can buy high quality goods at a good price. 64 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 4: So I kind of like to say, I like to 65 00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 4: shop at sax or Nemans just don't like to pay 66 00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 4: full price. I kind of think our investment teams like 67 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:45,280 Speaker 4: to do the same thing, right. They want to buy 68 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:49,400 Speaker 4: quality companies, but they want to pay a good price 69 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 4: for them, and there's real opportunity to do that now. 70 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 4: So I would say, don't discriminate between value and growth. 71 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 3: I just wonder what does even value mean? Yeah, I mean, honestly, no, 72 00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 3: I'm serious. I was talking to some people saying that 73 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 3: basically conservative stocks, defensive stocks, value stocks, everything's tech. 74 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:06,280 Speaker 2: I mean, that's basically what everyone is saying. 75 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 3: So at what point do you start to say, well, 76 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 3: maybe we're just falling behind. And if you own the 77 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:13,400 Speaker 3: broader index, well at least you'll catch the stories that 78 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:16,160 Speaker 3: might come out of nowhere and blow up the index. 79 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a great point. And you know, over the years, 80 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:26,039 Speaker 4: you know, people have categorized value and growth separately, but 81 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 4: as you know, we've had big industries change from you know, 82 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:32,719 Speaker 4: we've seen energy via value industry and energy be a 83 00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:35,080 Speaker 4: growth industry, and so I think investors have to kind 84 00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 4: of frame that up. And I think Lisa, you did 85 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:41,240 Speaker 4: really well. Any category, any company can move from value 86 00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 4: to growth at any time, which is why we kind 87 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:47,480 Speaker 4: of face the individual stocks, individual companies and look at 88 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 4: what we're paying for them. 89 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 3: Just quickly the here going into the second half, we've 90 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 3: gotten a lot of reassessments, a lot of people are 91 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 3: just getting more bullish. That seems to be the theme 92 00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:58,360 Speaker 3: pretty much across the board, with the exception of Mike Wilson. 93 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 3: But I'm wondering from your van to point, how you're 94 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 3: shifting either the names or your thesis heading into December. 95 00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:09,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a great question, Lisa, because clearly, I think 96 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:11,240 Speaker 4: the last time I was on the show, I said 97 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:15,279 Speaker 4: we expected the rally to kind of either spread down 98 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 4: market cap, which we have started to see a little bit. 99 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:21,200 Speaker 4: We would expect that to continue. If the rally is 100 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:24,560 Speaker 4: going to continue, investors are going to flow more broadly 101 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:28,839 Speaker 4: into the market. But again, I think our investment team's 102 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:33,839 Speaker 4: focus is looking for those unique opportunities, trimming names where 103 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:37,280 Speaker 4: the valuation just doesn't make sense, because what we do 104 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 4: is all about risk versus reward and really trying to 105 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:44,119 Speaker 4: set up our investors to protect them against big risk 106 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 4: and focus on reward over time, because again, the future's 107 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 4: pretty foggy. 108 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:51,800 Speaker 3: All right, well, Ammelili, thank you so much in the 109 00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 3: foggy future after the fog has luckily passed for us 110 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:57,440 Speaker 3: in the New York City and Melardia of All Spring, 111 00:05:57,480 --> 00:05:58,480 Speaker 3: thank you so much. 112 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:09,280 Speaker 2: Joining us now. 113 00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:12,160 Speaker 3: Jan Start Vague, founder and CEO of Exante Data and 114 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 3: market reader agains. What's your takeaway that we do have 115 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:17,920 Speaker 3: these divergent central banks. Is it just a matter of 116 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:20,839 Speaker 3: the US getting out front, having a cycle that it 117 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,000 Speaker 3: had to deal with first, and everybody else catching up, 118 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 3: or is this truly a splintering of the biggest global 119 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:29,360 Speaker 3: economies at a time of great transition. 120 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:32,640 Speaker 6: I think there's an element of both, right. So, clearly 121 00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:36,400 Speaker 6: the US started to recover quicker, the stimulus was more 122 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:39,160 Speaker 6: aggressive in the US, and therefore the US cycle has 123 00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:41,600 Speaker 6: been more front loaded, right. And then we have economies 124 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:45,040 Speaker 6: such as the eurosone economy where the stimulus was slower 125 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:50,039 Speaker 6: and more drawn out. And we are having a situation 126 00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 6: now where inflation is actually having moral mentioned in the 127 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:58,040 Speaker 6: Eurozone than in the US. And therefore the ECB cannot 128 00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 6: do any pausing. The ECB has to sickle that that's 129 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:02,680 Speaker 6: going to go every single meeting, right, and they are 130 00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 6: highly likely to be hiking in July and probably September 131 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:09,080 Speaker 6: and maybe even further than that. Right. So this is 132 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:11,400 Speaker 6: the first time for a while where we've seen monetary 133 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 6: policy divergence in a way that's going to support the Euro. 134 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 6: We saw a big, big move yesterday, and then I 135 00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 6: think if we scan the globe, right, then there's some 136 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 6: special issues around China. 137 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 3: Right. 138 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 6: So I think one data point that's very important this 139 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 6: year is that we've had a China reopening. We have 140 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:32,520 Speaker 6: had some recovery in certain sectors in China, right, but 141 00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 6: there's no inflation pressure in China. 142 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:34,520 Speaker 7: Right. 143 00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:37,600 Speaker 6: If we compared to other countries that have reopened, we 144 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 6: are not seeing any inflation pressure in China that resembles 145 00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:44,840 Speaker 6: what we've seen in other reopening situations, and that's really important. 146 00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 6: And this is also a sort of evidence that there's 147 00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 6: something structurally different in the Chinese economy. And one thing 148 00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:55,480 Speaker 6: that I think investors are not paying enough attention to 149 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:58,679 Speaker 6: is that there's been a massive structural shift in terms 150 00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 6: of the capital flow that's coming into China. 151 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 8: Right. 152 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:03,320 Speaker 6: It used to be the case that people just wanted 153 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:07,480 Speaker 6: to invest in China, build manufacturing capacity in China, but 154 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:12,440 Speaker 6: that foreign direct investment from companies has slowed very, very dramatically, 155 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:14,800 Speaker 6: and that has not recovered after reopening. So that's a 156 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:18,440 Speaker 6: structural shift that's very important for everything, including the Chinese currency. 157 00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:18,960 Speaker 8: Right. 158 00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 9: What do you make of China's attempts to get more 159 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:23,240 Speaker 9: and more trade occur in the one Are they attempting 160 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:25,800 Speaker 9: to over time become a competitor the dollar in terms 161 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:28,559 Speaker 9: of reserve currency. Is this just going to be a small, 162 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 9: tiny part of world trade or is it? Where do 163 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 9: you stand on that? 164 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 6: So China is a huge part of global trade in 165 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:39,320 Speaker 6: terms of the goods moving around, right, But they've been 166 00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 6: attempting to get that stuff invoiced in local currency and 167 00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:47,040 Speaker 6: try to create competition to the dollar. But look at 168 00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:50,080 Speaker 6: how the yuan has been trading this year, Right, were 169 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:52,959 Speaker 6: up over the last two days, But the big trend 170 00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:57,560 Speaker 6: has been the Chinese currency has underperformed very dramatically, consistent 171 00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:02,480 Speaker 6: with monetary policy being one of the easiest in the world. Right, 172 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:04,400 Speaker 6: they have not been any tightening related to the inflation 173 00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 6: dynamic that I spoke about, Right, So we have a 174 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:10,560 Speaker 6: situation where from a trade perspective, China is in a 175 00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 6: very strong position and could argue Okay, we dominate many many. 176 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:15,000 Speaker 10: Types of trade. 177 00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 6: We should have a reserve currency aspect, right, But when 178 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:20,679 Speaker 6: you look at the acid side, nobody wants to buy 179 00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:24,560 Speaker 6: the Chinese bonds. That literally outflows from Chinese bonds almost 180 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:27,000 Speaker 6: every single month. Even central banks around the world are 181 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:30,800 Speaker 6: starting to reduce CNY holdings, right, So it doesn't have 182 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:34,760 Speaker 6: the reserve currency aspect on the acid side. It's only 183 00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 6: on the trade that you can make the argument. And 184 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:40,240 Speaker 6: that's why that goal that the Chinese have is not 185 00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:41,160 Speaker 6: so easy to achieve. 186 00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:43,079 Speaker 9: Yeah, that makes a lot of sense. And where do 187 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:44,840 Speaker 9: you see Japan playing out? I think that's the country 188 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:47,680 Speaker 9: we're seeing actually get a lot of benefit from people 189 00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:50,720 Speaker 9: moving away from China and their power in the regions 190 00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:53,679 Speaker 9: important and clearly their stock market's done very well. Where 191 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:55,760 Speaker 9: do you see Japan playing out in terms of the 192 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:56,560 Speaker 9: global economy? 193 00:09:57,320 --> 00:09:59,360 Speaker 6: Yes, so I think if you sort of look at 194 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 6: a situation where global multi nationals are getting more cautious 195 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:06,960 Speaker 6: about investing aggressively in China, where are they going to 196 00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:07,959 Speaker 6: build capacity? 197 00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:08,240 Speaker 8: Right? 198 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:11,719 Speaker 6: So, there's a number of countries in Asia that have 199 00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:15,719 Speaker 6: manufacturing histories. Japan is one of them, Koreas another one 200 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 6: of them. There's new work countries like Taiwan and obviously 201 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:24,240 Speaker 6: Thailand and Vietnam too, and closer to the US, Mexico 202 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 6: is benefiting from that. Right, So we do have a 203 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:28,800 Speaker 6: number of emergent markets that are going to stand to 204 00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:31,720 Speaker 6: benefit from that. Japan has a bit of a special case. 205 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:35,439 Speaker 6: They have their own demographications and so forth. But clearly 206 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:39,319 Speaker 6: the NICK is now moving in a way that's very interesting, 207 00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 6: and it's a very ironic situation. You have inflation in 208 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 6: Japan that is running around five percent. In terms of 209 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:50,440 Speaker 6: the momentum we're seeing on core and financial conditions are easy, right, 210 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:56,200 Speaker 6: bandiels are pecked at zero effectively, right, and equity and 211 00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:59,000 Speaker 6: this is going higher, the end is going weaker, right, 212 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:01,160 Speaker 6: So eventually this to create a problem with the Bank 213 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:02,480 Speaker 6: of Japan that they have to deal with. 214 00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:05,080 Speaker 3: Given all of this, does it make sense that people 215 00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 3: are just looking at the divergences and saying, I guess 216 00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:10,079 Speaker 3: there's only one thing to do, go into big tech. 217 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:12,120 Speaker 3: I mean that basically was the theme of the week. 218 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:14,360 Speaker 3: Go into big tech, go into the euro. Those were 219 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:16,959 Speaker 3: the two trades of the week. Do they have lasting power? 220 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:23,320 Speaker 6: So I get to ask, if not every day. Certainly 221 00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 6: every week we get asked about, Okay, is the AI 222 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:26,240 Speaker 6: trend the bubble? 223 00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:26,440 Speaker 8: Right? 224 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 6: Is it overdone? There are certain companies where the evaluations 225 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:35,120 Speaker 6: look pretty crazy, right, But I have to say, take 226 00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 6: a step back. We think about this technology, what kind 227 00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:43,800 Speaker 6: of incredible changes it's going to create in the economy, right, 228 00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:48,800 Speaker 6: and then we think about how relatively young this excitement 229 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:52,280 Speaker 6: about this trend is likely only really a couple of 230 00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:55,720 Speaker 6: months in so given how big the structural shift these 231 00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:58,400 Speaker 6: technologies are going to create, I don't think we've run 232 00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:02,520 Speaker 6: for very long in terms of investors really getting involved 233 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:06,040 Speaker 6: in these trends. Like I track global capital flows very carefully. 234 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:07,720 Speaker 6: Like one thing I track is, Okay, what is the 235 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:10,160 Speaker 6: foreign money that's come into you as tech in the 236 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:12,599 Speaker 6: last couple of months. It's actually very limited, right, So 237 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:14,800 Speaker 6: it seems like foreign investors have kind of missed the 238 00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:19,720 Speaker 6: AI the terbo charge rally, and I wouldn't rule out 239 00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 6: that they're going to come in later. So I think 240 00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 6: it's tour to fade it. And then I was saying, 241 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:26,800 Speaker 6: in terms of other themes, emergent markets had a very 242 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:30,079 Speaker 6: good run, right, So there are other asset classes that 243 00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,360 Speaker 6: are on the move that have perhaps been forgotten about 244 00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:35,160 Speaker 6: for many, many years. So it's not just tech. I 245 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:37,840 Speaker 6: would say the emergent market trends are pretty interesting and 246 00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:39,200 Speaker 6: certainly something we've been watching. 247 00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:42,040 Speaker 3: Yeahzonoid Veig of Exante Data and Market Reader, thank you 248 00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:43,160 Speaker 3: so much for. 249 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:43,959 Speaker 2: Being with us. 250 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:50,720 Speaker 3: Set joining us now, especially at a moment of huge debate, 251 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:53,839 Speaker 3: is Congressman French Hill, Republican from Arkansas, and I want 252 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:56,640 Speaker 3: to start there, especially welcome by the way to New York. 253 00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:59,120 Speaker 3: I want to start there, especially because there is this 254 00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 3: increasing fight among House Republicans right now about whether to 255 00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 3: cut spending much more substantially, maybe raising a question around 256 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 3: whether we have to discuss the faulting again in a 257 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:11,920 Speaker 3: couple of months. Where do you weigh in on this? 258 00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:13,160 Speaker 3: How concerned are you? 259 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 7: Well, we have our fiscal constraint deal that we struck 260 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:21,079 Speaker 7: between House Republicans and President Trump, I mean President Biden, 261 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:23,959 Speaker 7: and that's put in place and that governs the top 262 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 7: line for appropriations, and now both the House and Center 263 00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:30,920 Speaker 7: are working to pass those twelve appropriations bills and that'll 264 00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:33,920 Speaker 7: be what tees up, as you say, a spending fight 265 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:37,040 Speaker 7: this fall, potentially as we attempt to pass all twelve 266 00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:40,240 Speaker 7: of those bills at the agreed upon a level in 267 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:45,360 Speaker 7: the Fiscal Restraint Measure or below, and so that's the issue. 268 00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:49,200 Speaker 7: But let's be clear, discretionary spending is forty percent higher 269 00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:52,959 Speaker 7: than it was just before the pandemic. So we're spending 270 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:56,960 Speaker 7: two trillion dollars more per year on spending in this 271 00:13:57,080 --> 00:14:00,920 Speaker 7: country than we were before the pandemic. And so there's 272 00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:02,800 Speaker 7: an effort, and I think we've made that clear that 273 00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:05,840 Speaker 7: we should lower that rate of spending growth and cap 274 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 7: it and that's what we did in this bill. 275 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:10,559 Speaker 3: Although Greg Valiere, who is on earlier of AGF, was 276 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:12,360 Speaker 3: saying that he's been in this business a long time 277 00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:14,480 Speaker 3: and he's ever seen anything like this, to agree on 278 00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:19,120 Speaker 3: spending a certain amount and then retracting it to essentially say, Okay, 279 00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 3: well maybe not. 280 00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:22,680 Speaker 7: That's not what the deal is, that's not what the do. 281 00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 7: I think this has gotten exaggerated in the press. These 282 00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:29,120 Speaker 7: are spending caps, these are ceilings, and so the appropriators 283 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:32,040 Speaker 7: now take those numbers and write the spending bills in 284 00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:35,800 Speaker 7: each department of cabinet government and they can spend up 285 00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:38,040 Speaker 7: to that amount. That's the goal, and we've set the 286 00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:40,520 Speaker 7: goal of if we're going to spend this spending curve down. 287 00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:43,320 Speaker 7: We don't want to do supplemental appropriations. We want to 288 00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:46,040 Speaker 7: make the government live within this enormous budget that we have. 289 00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:48,400 Speaker 3: Do you think that it's worth threatening another default? 290 00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:51,760 Speaker 7: Potentially, think anybody's threatening another default. I think what you 291 00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:55,240 Speaker 7: see is if you don't pass those appropriations bills, then 292 00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:58,040 Speaker 7: you're confronted with an f y twenty four fiscal twenty 293 00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:02,600 Speaker 7: four continuing resolution, which I don't think anybody in Congress wants, 294 00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:06,040 Speaker 7: because you freeze spending at the current level, but you 295 00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:09,000 Speaker 7: get all the policies that are frozen too, and members 296 00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:11,560 Speaker 7: of Congress like to debate in the appropriations process, both 297 00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 7: those spending levels and the policies that go with them. 298 00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:18,080 Speaker 7: And you can't do any new starts when you have 299 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:20,880 Speaker 7: a continuing resolution. So you can't start construction on a 300 00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 7: new nuclear submarine if you have a continuing resolution. So 301 00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:26,240 Speaker 7: it's not in the best interests of the government to 302 00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:28,440 Speaker 7: have a continuing resolution. But that's why I don't see 303 00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:30,680 Speaker 7: it as a default debate at all. It's more of 304 00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 7: a typical government shut down type debate, if you want 305 00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:35,680 Speaker 7: to use that term, on whether we're going to have 306 00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:38,800 Speaker 7: appropriated funds approved across both Houses of Congress, or if 307 00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:40,840 Speaker 7: we're going to be confronted with a continuing resolution? 308 00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:44,200 Speaker 3: Have you ever seen the Republican Party as split as 309 00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:46,160 Speaker 3: it is right now. We've been talking about this for 310 00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:50,320 Speaker 3: a while, but perhaps the prosecution former President Trump has 311 00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:53,400 Speaker 3: brought this into even colder relief, just because you have 312 00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:56,400 Speaker 3: people lining up behind him and other people saying, wait 313 00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:58,440 Speaker 3: for some information to come out. 314 00:15:58,680 --> 00:15:59,600 Speaker 2: Where do you stand on this? 315 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:02,240 Speaker 7: On are you talking about still talking about spending? 316 00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:02,960 Speaker 11: You're talking about. 317 00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:05,080 Speaker 12: President talking about President Yeah, President Trump, Well. 318 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:07,520 Speaker 7: Look, I think he made this situation a lot worse 319 00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:10,360 Speaker 7: by the way he handled the interactions with the government 320 00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:14,440 Speaker 7: regarding the Presidential Records Act. So I think he's made 321 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:17,840 Speaker 7: the situation a lot more challenging. I do believe that 322 00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:21,720 Speaker 7: we need complete reform on how we handled classified informations. 323 00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:23,680 Speaker 7: We just saw the news this morning with this young 324 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:27,760 Speaker 7: man National guardsman out on Cape cod Is facing sixty 325 00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:32,280 Speaker 7: years in prison for releasing and distributing classified information. I 326 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:34,640 Speaker 7: think this sends a lot of confusing messages to the 327 00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:37,320 Speaker 7: American people. We didn't make sure those rules are fair 328 00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:40,560 Speaker 7: clear and that presidents abide by them and everybody else 329 00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:41,840 Speaker 7: in the government abides by them. 330 00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 13: So if I think about the if I think about 331 00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:48,400 Speaker 13: that issue specifically, it's clear that there have been more 332 00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:51,240 Speaker 13: than several people who have had issues with documents. So 333 00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:53,680 Speaker 13: whether or not that's more egregious for him than other 334 00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:57,880 Speaker 13: people led is yet to be determined, But clearly we 335 00:16:57,960 --> 00:16:59,800 Speaker 13: need to do something with that. Is that just because 336 00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:02,800 Speaker 13: we're so far behind in what we're doing with our 337 00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 13: paper versus digital? Is that just because we just don't 338 00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:07,879 Speaker 13: have a clear view on what really is classified and 339 00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:09,119 Speaker 13: how classified it needs to be. 340 00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:11,720 Speaker 7: It's such a good question. In fact, we declassified in 341 00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:15,320 Speaker 7: the House Intelligence Committee the other day the instances of this. 342 00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:19,239 Speaker 7: The National Archives reported to us in a hearing that 343 00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:23,240 Speaker 7: they have found classified material in over eighty eighty different 344 00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:26,840 Speaker 7: former members of Congress records at their local university or 345 00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:30,720 Speaker 7: wherever their store, and that they've found classified information in 346 00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:34,720 Speaker 7: unclassified file boxes from every president from President Reagan on. 347 00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:38,120 Speaker 7: So this tells me as a former White House staffer, 348 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:41,280 Speaker 7: I can remember vigorously the pack up process on leaving 349 00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:44,320 Speaker 7: the administration in January nineteen ninety three. What was in 350 00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:47,520 Speaker 7: a classified box and what wasn't out of my office? 351 00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:49,879 Speaker 7: So we have rules, but I think we need to 352 00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:52,480 Speaker 7: improve training. And you raise a point of do we 353 00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:57,639 Speaker 7: classify too much information? Do we declassify information effectively and 354 00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:00,560 Speaker 7: communicate that and the difference between digital as in the 355 00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:03,840 Speaker 7: case of Missus Clinton and paper. So I think there's 356 00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:07,160 Speaker 7: work to be done here. It doesn't excuse anyone's behavior 357 00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 7: on this topic, though, Well. 358 00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:12,280 Speaker 3: To that point, are you concerned about the rhetoric around this, 359 00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:16,719 Speaker 3: that this is an issue of prosecuting the people and 360 00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:20,560 Speaker 3: going after someone just in terms of political interference? Are 361 00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:24,439 Speaker 3: you concerned about how this is raising questions about the 362 00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:28,680 Speaker 3: deep state and reigniting those discussions rather than the discussion 363 00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:31,520 Speaker 3: around how to keep classified document secret? 364 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:32,280 Speaker 11: You bet, Lisa. 365 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:36,720 Speaker 7: I mean, when you indict a former president by officials 366 00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:39,240 Speaker 7: of the Justice Department of his opposition party, you're going 367 00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:43,399 Speaker 7: to invite political speculation that it's a political activity, and 368 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:46,560 Speaker 7: it will absolutely take us off the substance and back 369 00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:49,720 Speaker 7: to that. But I simply I think that everybody ought 370 00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 7: to have clear understanding about how to handle this and 371 00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:55,040 Speaker 7: do it right. And the weaponization of the federal government, 372 00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:57,960 Speaker 7: which you're implying, is the subject of a select committee 373 00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:00,760 Speaker 7: in Congress this year. Because of the top at the 374 00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:05,000 Speaker 7: FBI during the end of the Obama administration. In Trump 375 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:07,719 Speaker 7: administration has disappointed a lot of people in Congress, it's 376 00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:11,160 Speaker 7: under a tremendous scrutiny. Director Ray is on the hill 377 00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:13,959 Speaker 7: routinely trying to defend that we have fired the people 378 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:17,440 Speaker 7: who brought you Russia, Russia, Russia. We fired the people 379 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:20,240 Speaker 7: who we think did wrong in that whole issue around 380 00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:23,560 Speaker 7: Missus Clinton or around mister Trump, and we're trying to 381 00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:25,280 Speaker 7: clean up our act and do the right thing. But 382 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:29,520 Speaker 7: there is skepticism among the citizens and people in Congress, 383 00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:31,520 Speaker 7: and I think it's a heavy lift. It's as heavy 384 00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:34,960 Speaker 7: a lift as the Church Commission back in the nineteen seventies. 385 00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:40,120 Speaker 7: And it's not hyperbole. So Director Ray has to make 386 00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:42,680 Speaker 7: the reputation of the FBI the one that we all 387 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:45,439 Speaker 7: know and love over history. 388 00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:47,600 Speaker 3: So you see the onus on the FBI rather than 389 00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:49,520 Speaker 3: on the former president. Change the rhetoric. 390 00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:52,600 Speaker 7: Well, I think the onus is on your point about 391 00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:58,920 Speaker 7: is the deep state potentially in trouble and creating mischief? 392 00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:01,639 Speaker 7: I think it was clear in the Russia investigation and 393 00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:04,920 Speaker 7: Crossfire Hurricane that they were involved, and it was very 394 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:07,520 Speaker 7: political at the top of the FBI. That's hurt the 395 00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:10,639 Speaker 7: FBI's reputation. I think it's up to Director Way to 396 00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:14,080 Speaker 7: help work with Congress and rebuild that reputation, which then 397 00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:16,840 Speaker 7: I think rebuilds trust through the American people. 398 00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:19,320 Speaker 3: French Hell, thank you so much, Congressman. I really appreciate 399 00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:33,639 Speaker 3: you taking the time with us. The SMP, Homebuilders ETF. 400 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:36,640 Speaker 3: I'm just looking at this is up twenty seven percent 401 00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:40,840 Speaker 3: so far this year, surging into what the Fed said 402 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:43,240 Speaker 3: was weakness, surging into a downturn that was going to 403 00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:47,520 Speaker 3: disinflate this economy right now, joining us to answer why 404 00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:49,040 Speaker 3: and who is right. 405 00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:49,560 Speaker 2: And who is wrong? 406 00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:52,760 Speaker 3: John Lavallo, US homebuilders analyst at UBS. So I want 407 00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:55,200 Speaker 3: to start John with a question that I keep asking people, 408 00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:58,880 Speaker 3: is anybody are these homebuilders selling to anybody who's paying 409 00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:01,680 Speaker 3: a seven percent mortgage for that home? 410 00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:04,159 Speaker 14: That's the beauty of what's going on right now. No, 411 00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:06,840 Speaker 14: the simple answer is no, if you're buying a home 412 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:09,280 Speaker 14: from one of these public homebuilders, you're paying six percent. 413 00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:11,320 Speaker 14: You may be paying five and a half percent. And 414 00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:14,720 Speaker 14: so it's a completely game changing dynamic that's going on 415 00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:15,160 Speaker 14: right now. 416 00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:18,000 Speaker 3: So as we look toward forward, about whether that demand 417 00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:21,359 Speaker 3: can continue. Do you see this momentum or do you 418 00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:23,919 Speaker 3: think that it's been overplayed, that perhaps people are not 419 00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:27,000 Speaker 3: seeing what the FED is seeing, which is people aren't 420 00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:28,199 Speaker 3: going to be able to afford it. All of the 421 00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:30,840 Speaker 3: cash buyers came in, those millennials have moved out of 422 00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:32,720 Speaker 3: the basement, and now it's just getting too expensive. 423 00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:35,439 Speaker 14: Lisa, It's a fascinating dynamic that's going on in the 424 00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:38,040 Speaker 14: market right now. What is really occurring is that there 425 00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:41,080 Speaker 14: is zero existing home supply out there, and the homes 426 00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:43,199 Speaker 14: that are out there are old and they are not 427 00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:45,480 Speaker 14: at the right price points, so there's no competition from 428 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:47,160 Speaker 14: that side of the market. Go to the other side 429 00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:49,120 Speaker 14: of the market, where you have the private homebuilders, which 430 00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:51,480 Speaker 14: are sixty percent of the market. They can't get land, 431 00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:54,119 Speaker 14: they can't get labor, they can't get financing now, and 432 00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:56,400 Speaker 14: so the demand that's out there, and albeit it's less 433 00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:58,359 Speaker 14: demand than it has been over the past couple of years, 434 00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:01,320 Speaker 14: it's all being channeled towards this group of public homebuilders, 435 00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:04,600 Speaker 14: and that's where we're seeing these massive market market share gains. 436 00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:07,960 Speaker 5: Such an important point about the aging of the housing stock, 437 00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:11,880 Speaker 5: the number of units it takes just to replace deteriorated 438 00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:16,000 Speaker 5: homes underappreciated story for sure. You know, I think the 439 00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:19,440 Speaker 5: real question to me is so much about how interest 440 00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:22,080 Speaker 5: rates are crimping demand, but no one talks about how 441 00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:25,640 Speaker 5: interest rates affect supply. And I think the medium mortgage 442 00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:28,040 Speaker 5: rate in the US right now is around three percent. 443 00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:31,120 Speaker 5: Homeowners have about a three percent mortgage rate. So how 444 00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:34,959 Speaker 5: do you deal with those supply shortages? How as a 445 00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:37,240 Speaker 5: home builder, where do you target? 446 00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 2: Is it the. 447 00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:41,160 Speaker 5: Affordable priced homes, is it the expensive high end homes? 448 00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:45,000 Speaker 5: How do you deal with such a big demand and 449 00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:45,919 Speaker 5: such a short supply. 450 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:47,960 Speaker 14: Well, Melie, you're spot on. I mean the fact that 451 00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:50,440 Speaker 14: most folks have mortgages that are struck at a much 452 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:53,919 Speaker 14: lower rate than prevailing seven percent rate today. Making that 453 00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:56,520 Speaker 14: swap out into another home, the math gets tricky and 454 00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:58,600 Speaker 14: some more people are sort of locked in place, so 455 00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:00,680 Speaker 14: that supply is not going to loosen up. So as 456 00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:03,440 Speaker 14: a public homebuilder, what we believe is the main place 457 00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:06,639 Speaker 14: to target is this entry level first time buyer where 458 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:09,800 Speaker 14: really it's a nee based purchase. You're maybe getting married, 459 00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:13,439 Speaker 14: having children, things and life events that necessitate more space, 460 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:16,000 Speaker 14: and that is where we believe well, that's where the demand, 461 00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:18,400 Speaker 14: the demand currently is, and that's where we believe the 462 00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:19,680 Speaker 14: real kind of tail to this. 463 00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:20,200 Speaker 11: Will be as well. 464 00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:21,920 Speaker 3: Okay, hold on a second, not to push back, but 465 00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:24,120 Speaker 3: to push back. I mean, I'm thinking about people who 466 00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:26,560 Speaker 3: I know who are creating homes and having babies and 467 00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:29,320 Speaker 3: paying off student loans and dealing with jobs where they 468 00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:32,240 Speaker 3: haven't graduated into more senior levels where they're getting paid 469 00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:34,120 Speaker 3: and they cannot afford any of these houses. I don't 470 00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:36,720 Speaker 3: understand where that demand is going to come from unless 471 00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:37,720 Speaker 3: prices come down. 472 00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:41,800 Speaker 14: Well, that's again, what the public builders are doing, is 473 00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:43,920 Speaker 14: they're making that math work for people and how they're 474 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:45,919 Speaker 14: doing it. We talked about the mortgage rates, right, but 475 00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:48,760 Speaker 14: they're also they're building smaller footprints, they're building a little 476 00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:52,400 Speaker 14: bit further away from city centers. They're offering fewer skews 477 00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:54,640 Speaker 14: for lack of a better term, so they're becoming much 478 00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:57,639 Speaker 14: more efficient where they can actually you know, incentivize folks 479 00:23:57,760 --> 00:23:59,200 Speaker 14: and help them get into homes. 480 00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:00,960 Speaker 2: But do any bank want to give them loans? 481 00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:04,199 Speaker 3: Like, does anyone want to actually extend credit to a 482 00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:06,760 Speaker 3: home builder at a time when people are worried about 483 00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:10,879 Speaker 3: city centers? Having a complete you know, see change with 484 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:13,359 Speaker 3: office space not being used and given the fact that 485 00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:14,399 Speaker 3: prices are so high. 486 00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:16,240 Speaker 14: At least that's a great point. And that's the beauty 487 00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:19,359 Speaker 14: of it is that the public homebuilders have captive finance arms, 488 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:23,679 Speaker 14: so they're offering their own their own you know, incentives 489 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:26,040 Speaker 14: in house, and they have access to the capital markets 490 00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:27,320 Speaker 14: and that's where they're getting the funding. 491 00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:29,840 Speaker 5: Let's let's kind of turn to the labor market a 492 00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:33,159 Speaker 5: little bit. That supports all this housing construction and also 493 00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:36,280 Speaker 5: what we're seeing in terms of changes of work. My 494 00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:41,280 Speaker 5: first question is has remote work changed the geographical footprint 495 00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:42,600 Speaker 5: of homebuilders right now? 496 00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:45,680 Speaker 14: You know, I don't know that it's changed the geographical footprint, 497 00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:48,280 Speaker 14: but it's really played into the geographical footprint. So if 498 00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:50,240 Speaker 14: you think about the public homebuilders, they are all sort 499 00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:52,720 Speaker 14: of in the Sunshine States or the Golden Horseshoe however 500 00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:54,560 Speaker 14: you want to refer to it, and that's where the 501 00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:57,400 Speaker 14: job growth is, that's where migration is trending. And that's 502 00:24:57,400 --> 00:24:59,080 Speaker 14: been you know, that's been the case for a number 503 00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:02,679 Speaker 14: of years. But I think working remotely has sort of 504 00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:06,040 Speaker 14: exacerbated that shift, and we're seeing more folks move into 505 00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:08,879 Speaker 14: the kind of the sun belt, and so it's really 506 00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:11,200 Speaker 14: sort of playing into the hands of the public home. 507 00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:11,920 Speaker 7: Buildings, right. 508 00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:15,920 Speaker 5: And then just the labor shortages that you know, finding 509 00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:17,880 Speaker 5: people to do all this building. 510 00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:19,199 Speaker 2: How extreme is that? 511 00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:21,760 Speaker 5: Right now? What would you like to see in that 512 00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:25,479 Speaker 5: industry to help get more workers onto the work sites. 513 00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:27,240 Speaker 11: Yeah, it's tough. 514 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:29,560 Speaker 14: It's really tough. Getting labor is one of the biggest 515 00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:32,480 Speaker 14: challenges out there for the home builders. I think that 516 00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:35,720 Speaker 14: that's where size and scale become increasingly important, and again 517 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:38,239 Speaker 14: the public home builders are well positioned for that. I 518 00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:41,560 Speaker 14: think what is needed is that this is an industry, 519 00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:44,239 Speaker 14: if you think about it, that hasn't changed in one 520 00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:46,640 Speaker 14: hundred years. We're still building a house the same way 521 00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:48,040 Speaker 14: we did stick framing it on site. 522 00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:48,920 Speaker 5: Oh a, I hear. 523 00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:53,680 Speaker 2: It's a good point. Well not yet home they get built. 524 00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:55,080 Speaker 2: This is actually true, right. 525 00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:57,560 Speaker 3: This is the point is that some jobs you cannot 526 00:25:57,560 --> 00:25:59,600 Speaker 3: replace with artificial intelligence. 527 00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:00,800 Speaker 2: I just want to give you a. 528 00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:03,920 Speaker 3: Viewer rights in so, y'all think millennials went from living 529 00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:07,000 Speaker 3: at home with parents to paying for highly overvalued homes 530 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:09,240 Speaker 3: with all cash real I mean, there is this element 531 00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:11,280 Speaker 3: of are you joking me that this is sort of 532 00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:14,640 Speaker 3: what's going to continue fueling demand, especially at a time 533 00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:18,320 Speaker 3: when in certain of these Sun Belt areas, insurance companies 534 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:22,080 Speaker 3: are not covering the housing the housing insurance anymore simply 535 00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:25,320 Speaker 3: because of different weather threats and other things, and people 536 00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:26,040 Speaker 3: are starting. 537 00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:26,600 Speaker 2: To migrate back. 538 00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:28,200 Speaker 3: I mean, at what point do you start to see 539 00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:32,480 Speaker 3: a real softening and potentially housing supply coming back online. 540 00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:34,840 Speaker 14: Well, maybe to take the last part of the question first, 541 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:36,800 Speaker 14: to get housing supply to come back online, I think 542 00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:38,320 Speaker 14: we're going to see interest rates need to come in 543 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:41,679 Speaker 14: pretty meaningfully, and that you know, that's anyone's guess, you know, 544 00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:43,399 Speaker 14: I think in order to sort of loosen up if 545 00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:44,919 Speaker 14: you're a homeowner that has a four and a half 546 00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:47,840 Speaker 14: percent mortgage, making that swap into seven percents tough, if 547 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:51,240 Speaker 14: rates come in, maybe that loosens that up. But I think, 548 00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:53,639 Speaker 14: you know, your question on the millennials is a good one. 549 00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:57,119 Speaker 14: What I would say is that millennials are again reaching 550 00:26:57,119 --> 00:26:59,800 Speaker 14: that prime home ownership age of called you know, thirty 551 00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:03,159 Speaker 14: thirty five years old, and they're having life events and 552 00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:06,440 Speaker 14: I know the math is tough, but to the extent 553 00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:08,920 Speaker 14: that they can make things work, and the public home 554 00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:11,320 Speaker 14: builders on their side trying to make it work. I 555 00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:12,680 Speaker 14: think we're still in for a good market. 556 00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:14,679 Speaker 3: I love that having life events sort of, you know, 557 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:17,280 Speaker 3: having a kid, get married, doing whatever, moving, getting a job. 558 00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:19,879 Speaker 3: Just quickly to follow up on what you said that 559 00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:23,280 Speaker 3: to get supply to come online, you have to see 560 00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:25,520 Speaker 3: interest rates come in meaningfully. You have to see mortgage 561 00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:28,119 Speaker 3: rates come in meaningfully. Does that mean you expect prices 562 00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:30,040 Speaker 3: to fall when interest rates come in? 563 00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:33,479 Speaker 14: There's just no supply out there, right, And so I 564 00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:36,679 Speaker 14: think that's what's really been booing home prices, and we 565 00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:38,760 Speaker 14: don't expect a big decline at home prices. I think 566 00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:40,840 Speaker 14: if you talk to the public home builders, they'll tell 567 00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:43,720 Speaker 14: you that their average selling prices come in about ten 568 00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:46,600 Speaker 14: percent from the peak, but the peak was high. And 569 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,359 Speaker 14: so if you look nationally, home prices are pretty flat 570 00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:51,560 Speaker 14: on a year to date basis, and we don't see 571 00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:54,359 Speaker 14: a big change in that. So it is a tricky 572 00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:57,080 Speaker 14: scenario to make that sort of affordability equation work. And 573 00:27:57,080 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 14: again that's why it's so good to be a public 574 00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:00,720 Speaker 14: home builder today when you can offer that financing. 575 00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:04,040 Speaker 3: John the follow of ubs pitching home builders quite clearly, 576 00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:06,960 Speaker 3: thank you so much for being with us.

I think this rally 627 00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:37,480 Speaker 19: is increasingly well balanced. 628 00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:39,840 Speaker 16: Ben Ledler and Etro notes global stocks are on track 629 00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:42,400 Speaker 16: for their best week since March, but trading today could 630 00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:44,800 Speaker 16: come with plenty of twists.

Our fueling optimism, we 636 00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:03,160 Speaker 15: make it more clues Today, Saint Louis FED President Jim 637 00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:06,640 Speaker 15: Bullard and FED Governor Chris Wallers speak in Norway. Today, 638 00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:10,000 Speaker 15: Richmond FED President Tom Barkin speaks on inflation at an 639 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:11,640 Speaker 15: event in Maryland this morning. 640 00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:14,320 Speaker 16: Well, so far, Amy every FED decision in this tightening 641 00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:18,080 Speaker 16: cycle's been unanimous, and now Larry Summers warns diverging views 642 00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:20,400 Speaker 16: that the central Bank could blow it off course. We 643 00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:23,400 Speaker 16: spoke with the former Treasury Secretary for the latest edition 644 00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:24,920 Speaker 16: of Bloomberg Wall Street Week. 645 00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:28,440 Speaker 20: I found the Fed's action a little bit confusing. This 646 00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:31,480 Speaker 20: meeting felt like it was driven as much by the 647 00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:35,800 Speaker 20: internal political dynamics of the FED as by any consistent 648 00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:41,320 Speaker 20: and coherent reading of the economic situation, and that was 649 00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:42,880 Speaker 20: a bit disturbing to me. 650 00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:46,080 Speaker 16: Those comments from Larry Summers come after the FED paused 651 00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:48,480 Speaker 16: rate hikes for the first time in fifteen months. Stay 652 00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:50,960 Speaker 16: tuned for more of that conversation coming up shortly on 653 00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:51,640 Speaker 16: the program. 654 00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:52,800 Speaker 2: Central banks. 655 00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:55,960 Speaker 15: Meanwhile, also in focus in Asia over night, the Bank 656 00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:59,200 Speaker 15: of Japan held its stimulus measures in place. As Bloomberg 657 00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:03,440 Speaker 15: Daybreak anchor Brian Curtis tells us, the BOJ is waiting 658 00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:05,080 Speaker 15: for more sustainable inflation. 659 00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:08,760 Speaker 21: Governor Kazuo, who waded A left, unchanged the boj's negative 660 00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:13,360 Speaker 21: interest rate and yield curve control program. Yen immediately weakened 661 00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:15,880 Speaker 21: against the dollar.

We are coming off six straight winning sessions 816 00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:26,400 Speaker 10: for stocks. We saw mixed US inflation report. Headline prices 817 00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:30,000 Speaker 10: cooled while core inflation rose. Traders saw that as dubvish, 818 00:40:30,480 --> 00:40:32,799 Speaker 10: and finally we got a pause in rate hikes from 819 00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:35,279 Speaker 10: the Federal Reserve, the first time they did not raise 820 00:40:35,360 --> 00:40:38,680 Speaker 10: rates in fifteen months. Let's take stock of it all 821 00:40:38,680 --> 00:40:42,240 Speaker 10: now with Larry Summers, the Bloomberg News contributor and former 822 00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:45,719 Speaker 10: US Treasury Secretary, sat down for a conversation with Bloomberg's 823 00:40:45,760 --> 00:40:48,359 Speaker 10: Romain Bomstick. Let's listen in to part of that right. 824 00:40:48,280 --> 00:40:51,280 Speaker 26: Now, Larry, let's talk about the FED meeting more importantly. 825 00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:55,520 Speaker 26: That FED pause not necessarily a surprise, but do you 826 00:40:55,560 --> 00:40:56,560 Speaker 26: think it was appropriate? 827 00:40:57,000 --> 00:40:57,880 Speaker 11: I'm not sure. 828 00:40:58,160 --> 00:41:02,960 Speaker 20: I found the Fed's action a little bit confusing. I 829 00:41:03,080 --> 00:41:09,120 Speaker 20: understand the arguments for not hiking at this meeting, but 830 00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:14,560 Speaker 20: those arguments wouldn't point towards signaling to further rate increases. 831 00:41:15,080 --> 00:41:19,560 Speaker 20: They wouldn't point towards significantly revising the forecast towards a 832 00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:26,400 Speaker 20: stronger economy and more inflation. I understand the arguments for 833 00:41:26,680 --> 00:41:30,720 Speaker 20: having gone the other way, but I don't really understand 834 00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:36,600 Speaker 20: the internal consistency of an approach of pausing at this 835 00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:42,840 Speaker 20: meeting but then signaling to further rate hikes down the road, 836 00:41:43,360 --> 00:41:47,360 Speaker 20: and signaling that they no longer expect unemployment to increase 837 00:41:47,560 --> 00:41:51,279 Speaker 20: nearly as much as they used to expect it. So 838 00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:54,600 Speaker 20: this meeting felt like it was driven as much by 839 00:41:54,640 --> 00:41:58,640 Speaker 20: the internal political dynamics of the FED as by any 840 00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:04,920 Speaker 20: consistency and cohar and reading of the economic situation, and 841 00:42:04,960 --> 00:42:06,319 Speaker 20: that was a bit disturbing. 842 00:42:06,719 --> 00:42:09,080 Speaker 26: They raised some of their economic projections or at least 843 00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:11,319 Speaker 26: they improved a little bit here, but you still have 844 00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:13,440 Speaker 26: a market that seems to be betting on this idea 845 00:42:13,920 --> 00:42:17,040 Speaker 26: of a recession, the idea that the FED itself may 846 00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:19,200 Speaker 26: have actually overtightened, or at least is on its way 847 00:42:19,239 --> 00:42:19,760 Speaker 26: to doing. 848 00:42:19,600 --> 00:42:23,480 Speaker 20: That, That would not be my best guess. I think 849 00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:27,360 Speaker 20: it's very hard to read. But my best guess is 850 00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:31,879 Speaker 20: that the consumer, which is seventy percent of the economy, 851 00:42:32,360 --> 00:42:38,160 Speaker 20: appears to be running really quite strong at this point. 852 00:42:38,600 --> 00:42:42,719 Speaker 20: We've got very strong employment data, much faster. 853 00:42:42,560 --> 00:42:44,880 Speaker 11: Than population growth. 854 00:42:45,440 --> 00:42:49,040 Speaker 20: The indicators on wages are a bit mixed, but the 855 00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:53,480 Speaker 20: ones that seem most reliable to me that adjusts for 856 00:42:53,640 --> 00:42:57,200 Speaker 20: changes in the composition of the labor force, are showing 857 00:42:57,760 --> 00:43:04,000 Speaker 20: substantial strength. So I don't see the idea that we've 858 00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:10,400 Speaker 20: got a durable reduction in inflation clearly established, nor do 859 00:43:10,520 --> 00:43:16,560 Speaker 20: I see clear evidence of a slowing coming. So in 860 00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:21,360 Speaker 20: that context, I think the Fed has probably got to 861 00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:27,520 Speaker 20: maintain a posture of moving towards restraint. But I think 862 00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:32,680 Speaker 20: that they ought to decide what their balancing of risks is, 863 00:43:33,360 --> 00:43:38,080 Speaker 20: and I was struck that the balancing of risks that 864 00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:43,000 Speaker 20: was implicit in not moving this time was kind of 865 00:43:43,040 --> 00:43:48,000 Speaker 20: inconsistent with the balancing of risks that was signaled by 866 00:43:48,080 --> 00:43:53,759 Speaker 20: the two tightenings and by the forecast revisions. 867 00:43:54,120 --> 00:43:57,160 Speaker 26: I want to go overseas to China. They had a 868 00:43:57,239 --> 00:43:59,480 Speaker 26: much different policy meeting coming out of the People's Bank 869 00:43:59,520 --> 00:44:02,040 Speaker 26: of China cut And there's been a lot of discussion 870 00:44:02,040 --> 00:44:04,880 Speaker 26: here Larry about the health of the Chinese economy and 871 00:44:04,960 --> 00:44:06,920 Speaker 26: light of the data we've gotten and a lot of 872 00:44:06,920 --> 00:44:09,400 Speaker 26: some of the reports by Bloomberg and others that they 873 00:44:09,440 --> 00:44:12,560 Speaker 26: are considering fiscal or at least some sort of economic 874 00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:15,480 Speaker 26: stimulus measures to get that economy going back again. 875 00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:21,560 Speaker 20: I think the Chinese have a very difficult set of 876 00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:28,240 Speaker 20: challenges ahead of them. They're very serious financial overhangs coming 877 00:44:28,280 --> 00:44:33,000 Speaker 20: out of what's happening in real estate. I take a 878 00:44:33,080 --> 00:44:36,520 Speaker 20: somewhat more medium term view of it. And what's an 879 00:44:36,520 --> 00:44:42,000 Speaker 20: economy about. Economy is about people and it's about capital. 880 00:44:42,560 --> 00:44:45,240 Speaker 20: And what we know is that the number of births 881 00:44:45,239 --> 00:44:49,319 Speaker 20: in China has fallen by almost fifty percent in the 882 00:44:49,360 --> 00:44:54,920 Speaker 20: last six years, and we know that Bloomberg reported that 883 00:44:55,760 --> 00:45:00,480 Speaker 20: the number of millionaires leaving China was kind of high, 884 00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:05,279 Speaker 20: high by historical standards and high by global standards. So 885 00:45:05,320 --> 00:45:11,880 Speaker 20: whether it's a supply of people investment in new capital, 886 00:45:12,280 --> 00:45:16,400 Speaker 20: I think you've got some fundamental bets that aren't running 887 00:45:16,440 --> 00:45:17,480 Speaker 20: that positive. 888 00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:23,160 Speaker 27: This is Bloomberg Daybreak Today, your morning brief on the 889 00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:26,600 Speaker 27: story's making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. 890 00:45:26,640 --> 00:45:29,600 Speaker 15: Look for us on your podcast feed by six am 891 00:45:29,719 --> 00:45:33,920 Speaker 15: Eastern each morning, on Apple, Spotify, and anywhere else you 892 00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:35,080 Speaker 15: get your podcasts. 893 00:45:35,280 --> 00:45:37,960 Speaker 27: You can also listen live each morning starting at five 894 00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:40,640 Speaker 27: am Wall Street time on Bloomberg eleven three to zero 895 00:45:40,640 --> 00:45:43,480 Speaker 27: in New York, Bloomberg ninety nine to one in Washington, 896 00:45:43,600 --> 00:45:46,480 Speaker 27: Bloomberg one oh six to one in Boston, and Bloomberg 897 00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:48,160 Speaker 27: ninety sixty in San Francisco. 898 00:45:48,400 --> 00:45:51,920 Speaker 15: Our flagship New York station is also available on your 899 00:45:52,040 --> 00:45:57,480 Speaker 15: Amazon Alexa devices.
