1
00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:07,000
Speaker 1: Bloomberg Audio Studios, Podcasts, radio News.

2
00:00:07,920 --> 00:00:09,960
Speaker 2: All Right, folks, we've got another great voice to talk

3
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:13,680
Speaker 2: about the environment, the macro we're talking about Jamie Diamond. He's,

4
00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:16,400
Speaker 2: of course, the CEO of JP Morgan Chase, and he

5
00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:19,760
Speaker 2: is there in Miami at the JP Morgan Global Leverage

6
00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:22,520
Speaker 2: Finance Conference with our only Sobramowitz, one of the co

7
00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:25,360
Speaker 2: hosts of Bloomberg TV's Surveillance Lisa take it away.

8
00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:30,319
Speaker 3: Thank you so much, Carol. I am here with somebody

9
00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:31,120
Speaker 3: who does not need an.

10
00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:35,080
Speaker 4: Introduction, Jamie Diamond, who is the CEO and chairman of

11
00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:39,000
Speaker 4: JP Morgan. It's a really interesting day to have this.

12
00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:42,080
Speaker 4: First of all, huge turnout, but the focus, at least

13
00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:44,040
Speaker 4: in the news world is very much in the geopolitics.

14
00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:46,400
Speaker 4: And I'm wondering from your perspective, we've talked about geopolitics

15
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:47,040
Speaker 4: for a long time.

16
00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:50,800
Speaker 3: Are you surprised that the market has been so sanguine to.

17
00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:53,559
Speaker 4: Any kind of response or any kind of geopolitical disruption?

18
00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:58,080
Speaker 1: Ugga Hi, Lisa Hi, Bloomberg Not really so.

19
00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:01,600
Speaker 5: One of our brilliant folks report years ago Mike Sembolos

20
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:03,880
Speaker 5: that you look at all these wars around the world

21
00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:07,240
Speaker 5: since World War two, the market reacts, but it never

22
00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:09,720
Speaker 5: had a real long term effect other than the Israeli

23
00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:13,600
Speaker 5: conflict with the oil prize of triples that went out

24
00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:15,679
Speaker 5: for an extended period of time in nineteen seventy three.

25
00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:19,880
Speaker 1: So the world kind of tastes is dried. But geopolitics

26
00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:21,080
Speaker 1: is a major issue.

27
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:24,000
Speaker 5: It's much more complex today than has been since World

28
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:27,360
Speaker 5: War Two. I'm talking about Ukraine, Russia, Iran to what

29
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:30,679
Speaker 5: Korea are related with China, and that could have an effect,

30
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:33,480
Speaker 5: but it may not. So these things may diminish over time.

31
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:37,160
Speaker 5: You know, this war with Iran, you know, if it

32
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:39,240
Speaker 5: is short and oil goes to eighty or ninety or

33
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:41,600
Speaker 5: one hundred, but it's a short time, not prolonged, it

34
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:42,920
Speaker 5: probably won't have a major effect.

35
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:46,080
Speaker 1: If it becomes prolonged, then all bets up the table.

36
00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 4: How offside would this market be if there were truly

37
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:51,320
Speaker 4: a speculationary shock Given the fact that there seems to

38
00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:53,640
Speaker 4: be comfort with the idea of disinflation right now, well.

39
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:55,160
Speaker 1: I think that's true, but I think that was true

40
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:55,880
Speaker 1: before this war.

41
00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:57,720
Speaker 5: So if you look at you know, my view is

42
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:00,160
Speaker 5: the price as the price going a high, credit as

43
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 5: are kind of low there's kind of a lot of

44
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:02,840
Speaker 5: complacence in the market.

45
00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:03,640
Speaker 1: I'm not sure.

46
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 5: You know, we look at risk, we look at the

47
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:08,760
Speaker 5: broad range of outcomes, and there are negative outcomes, but

48
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:10,360
Speaker 5: one of them would be you.

49
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 1: Know, inflation. I called that's the skunk at the party.

50
00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:15,040
Speaker 5: So it's been coming down, but it seems to maybe

51
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:16,400
Speaker 5: leveled off around three percent.

52
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:18,600
Speaker 1: If things make it go up. And this is only

53
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:19,200
Speaker 1: one thing.

54
00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:22,440
Speaker 5: You know, you can look at medical prices, construction prices,

55
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:25,800
Speaker 5: insurance prices, wages for certain things, other things.

56
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:28,440
Speaker 1: You know, inflation is a big thing. It's not just oil.

57
00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:30,959
Speaker 5: So you know, we'll say right now, this will add

58
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:33,200
Speaker 5: a little bit, literally a teeny bit to inflation, not

59
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:33,520
Speaker 5: a lot.

60
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:33,880
Speaker 1: You know.

61
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:36,440
Speaker 4: I was surprised because things were kind of gloomy coming intoday,

62
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:39,120
Speaker 4: and the mood here is not that. Actually, there's a

63
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:40,960
Speaker 4: lot of optimism. There are a lot of different companies

64
00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:43,600
Speaker 4: that are building things and investing things. I mean, how

65
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 4: vulnerable really is the US economy right now to some

66
00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:47,640
Speaker 4: sort of geopolitical shock.

67
00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:49,919
Speaker 1: Well it may not be geopolitical. It may be the

68
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:51,200
Speaker 1: companies start to lay.

69
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:53,720
Speaker 5: People off, and so I loo, look, the most important

70
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:56,840
Speaker 5: thing in the world is geopolitical what happens to the free,

71
00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:59,920
Speaker 5: western democratic world which has kind of been under attacked

72
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:03,040
Speaker 5: by Russia and Ukraine, by Ran in the Middle East,

73
00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:04,920
Speaker 5: you know a little bit by China and wants to

74
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:06,760
Speaker 5: you know, divide and conquer.

75
00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:07,239
Speaker 1: The Western world.

76
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:10,760
Speaker 5: And you know, both militarily and economically. You know, you

77
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 5: have all their neighbors that rearming because of their action

78
00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:15,000
Speaker 5: is not going to anyone else. So those are the

79
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:18,840
Speaker 5: most important things. I'd add global deficits are so large,

80
00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:20,800
Speaker 5: but those are those are like I call it like

81
00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:23,880
Speaker 5: large movie tectonic plates that may or may not affect

82
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:25,120
Speaker 5: the economy the short run.

83
00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:27,720
Speaker 1: They may be determintive in the longer run.

84
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:29,880
Speaker 5: And some of these things when you talk about war,

85
00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:32,919
Speaker 5: you know Vietnam, you know, did it affect the economy

86
00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:35,080
Speaker 5: in the very short run? No, it had a twenty

87
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:36,160
Speaker 5: year effect after that.

88
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 1: So you got to look at these.

89
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:41,040
Speaker 5: Things as they're moving plates that it can take five

90
00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 5: years to have an effect for the effectually real. Right now,

91
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 5: the economy is doing fine. Hash that prices are high,

92
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:48,400
Speaker 5: people are assuming things go on. I mean, no Wan

93
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:50,840
Speaker 5: you talk to has any idea the credits breads can

94
00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 5: gap bat a lot and they could just because of

95
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:56,600
Speaker 5: a sentiment. And so so I think there's a little

96
00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 5: bit of a little more exuberant than I think there

97
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:01,280
Speaker 5: should be. But we've had years of it, and you know,

98
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 5: the one big beautiful bill adds to uh, you know,

99
00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:08,200
Speaker 5: as to growth this year, bank deregulation, other deregulation, as

100
00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:10,800
Speaker 5: to growth and animal spirits.

101
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:11,480
Speaker 1: Uh.

102
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:14,600
Speaker 5: So we'll see. But but you pointed out I think,

103
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:16,760
Speaker 5: you know, the skunk would be inflation. So we've got

104
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:18,120
Speaker 5: to be keep riding down. We're closer.

105
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:18,479
Speaker 3: Yeah.

106
00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:20,839
Speaker 4: Well, and this actually speaks to something that people are wondering,

107
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:23,599
Speaker 4: which is what's going to potentially crash the party before

108
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:26,040
Speaker 4: we get into credit More significantly, I know that JP

109
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:29,280
Speaker 4: Morgan has been expanding significantly in the Middle East, particularly

110
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:33,280
Speaker 4: in Riod and Jubai. If you take a longer term view,

111
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:35,719
Speaker 4: does any of what we're seeing now have the potential

112
00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:39,200
Speaker 4: to shape that effort to expand either in the positive

113
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:42,160
Speaker 4: direction or potentially to withdraw in the effort.

114
00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:44,880
Speaker 5: Either way, I look at it creates more risk, it

115
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:47,880
Speaker 5: creates more chance of a positive outcome. So all those

116
00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:51,920
Speaker 5: nations been margernizing, educating their people, you know, adopting more

117
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:54,240
Speaker 5: and more Western methods why and open up their markets

118
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:58,000
Speaker 5: bringing foreign direct investment, investor oversease. That won't change in fact,

119
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:00,320
Speaker 5: and Tom Freeman wrote about this in his paper Hey

120
00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:04,520
Speaker 5: that this creates a bigger opportunity for long and just

121
00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:08,480
Speaker 5: peace in the Middle East and and written large not

122
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,479
Speaker 5: just Iran in this war, but you know that Saudi Arabia,

123
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:15,400
Speaker 5: UAE some path to uh statehood for the Palestinians and

124
00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:18,880
Speaker 5: guys in palestinniing that's gonna be up to you know them. Uh,

125
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:21,120
Speaker 5: you know, there are there reasons to be optimistic. This

126
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:24,040
Speaker 5: opens the door for that, you know. And there are

127
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,720
Speaker 5: a lot of naysayers. I understand that if things go south,

128
00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:28,719
Speaker 5: they're can say I told you so. But this does

129
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:30,839
Speaker 5: open up the door for that. So hopefully we're wise

130
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:33,360
Speaker 5: enough to help move in that direction. And I and

131
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:35,360
Speaker 5: I and if you watch closes, it's been on in

132
00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:41,119
Speaker 5: the Middle East, Saudi Arabia, Yuee, Qatar, Kuwait, they all

133
00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:44,800
Speaker 5: want peace and they all know that like really growing

134
00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 5: and having a great economies rely on that. You want

135
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,400
Speaker 5: to get more foreign direct investment, you need peace and

136
00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:51,920
Speaker 5: things like war reduced the chance for people don't want

137
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:53,880
Speaker 5: to put you know, real investment in the ground, so uh,

138
00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:55,880
Speaker 5: you know, and then and then they even set up

139
00:05:55,880 --> 00:06:01,280
Speaker 5: a shadow government for the Palestinian Authority with Palestinians but profetationals, lawyers, doctors,

140
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 5: business people to create maybe a governing structure that can

141
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:10,640
Speaker 5: actually uncorruptly govern palast Indians and create peace on the

142
00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:13,239
Speaker 5: ground there. And you know, have Israel impossed. I'm working

143
00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:16,560
Speaker 5: a long term course, but of course to uh, you know,

144
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:19,800
Speaker 5: peace side by side of a statehood. So we'll see,

145
00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:21,760
Speaker 5: I mean, look on that one. I want to be optimistic,

146
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:24,120
Speaker 5: even though it's been terrible now for a long time.

147
00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:25,760
Speaker 3: You were talking about credit.

148
00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:27,640
Speaker 4: I do want to return to it and what potentially

149
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:30,680
Speaker 4: caused the credit cycle to crack. Even if we don't

150
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:32,520
Speaker 4: know the catalyst, do you have a sense of what

151
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:34,600
Speaker 4: this credit cycle is going to look like, if it's

152
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:36,039
Speaker 4: going to be a kin to something that we've seen

153
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:38,160
Speaker 4: in the past, or if it's going to have a

154
00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:39,200
Speaker 4: new kind of dynamic.

155
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:42,719
Speaker 5: Yeah, so it's some things rhyme and something's never changed. Okay,

156
00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:46,680
Speaker 5: there will be a credit cycle. It's usually caused by

157
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:50,240
Speaker 5: a recession. The type of recession determines the nature and

158
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:53,320
Speaker 5: so stagflation is very different than just a recession. Obviously,

159
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:55,400
Speaker 5: the depth of the recession and a credit cycle is

160
00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:58,039
Speaker 5: a normal cycle. One of the things that's always different

161
00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:00,800
Speaker 5: is which industries get really badly hurt. You may remember

162
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:05,000
Speaker 5: in two thousand it was telecommon utilities, you know, the

163
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:08,760
Speaker 5: mostocks they pay dividends. In eight there's warm Buffett stocks,

164
00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:09,640
Speaker 5: media stocks.

165
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:09,960
Speaker 4: You know.

166
00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:13,080
Speaker 5: This time maybe is software, maybe it's not, but somebody's

167
00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:15,480
Speaker 5: moving that changes the type of credit. I do think

168
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,760
Speaker 5: it'll be things that cause the recession. Could be geopolitics.

169
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:21,560
Speaker 5: It could just be you know, people are pulling back

170
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:23,760
Speaker 5: and they're spending and companies are laying off or they

171
00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:26,800
Speaker 5: can't pass on prices or something like that. But I

172
00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:28,680
Speaker 5: do think when we have that cycle, it'll be worse

173
00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:31,320
Speaker 5: than people expect. We're late in the cycle. There are

174
00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 5: a lot of late new entrants. There's some people out

175
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:35,520
Speaker 5: there aren't doing great credit because we see the other

176
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:37,520
Speaker 5: side of it. And I'm not talking about private credit,

177
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:41,200
Speaker 5: talking about credit in general. That could be insurance companies,

178
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:42,600
Speaker 5: it could be private credit.

179
00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:43,360
Speaker 1: It could be banks.

180
00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:45,680
Speaker 5: We see some banks doing things that you know, we

181
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:48,640
Speaker 5: probably wouldn't do, so so there would be and the

182
00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:50,840
Speaker 5: other think about credit, there's always if you look at

183
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:53,200
Speaker 5: the outcomes, there's always the people did it well. They

184
00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:55,520
Speaker 5: still have a cycle and the people did it really badly.

185
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 5: So you know that's not gonna surprise me when we

186
00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:00,120
Speaker 5: find out who the who's will be naked when the

187
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:00,920
Speaker 5: tide goes out there.

188
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:02,600
Speaker 3: You don't think, you don't think the product credit stan

189
00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:03,040
Speaker 3: at the center.

190
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:06,640
Speaker 5: No, because private credit, I mean, give you big numbers,

191
00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:09,560
Speaker 5: corporate debt and generals in pretty good shape, consumer debt

192
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:12,120
Speaker 5: and gel pretty good shape. And you take private credit

193
00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:16,040
Speaker 5: leverage lending one point seven trillion banks to one point

194
00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:19,480
Speaker 5: seven trillion, the high markets one point seven trillion, I

195
00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:23,120
Speaker 5: wouldn't put that in this systemic category, even if it

196
00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:24,440
Speaker 5: gets worse than people expect.

197
00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:28,160
Speaker 4: So do you think given the fact that JP Morgan

198
00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:31,440
Speaker 4: is lending significantly as well. I'm just wondering how you

199
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:33,760
Speaker 4: sort of guard against a credit cycle that you think

200
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:35,440
Speaker 4: is gonna be worse than people expect at the same

201
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:37,640
Speaker 4: time that there are opportunities, there's a growing economy.

202
00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:39,040
Speaker 3: I mean, do you have to keep more cash? Do

203
00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:40,600
Speaker 3: you have to be more conservative?

204
00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:43,400
Speaker 5: So we always run the riskmagement we do is we

205
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:46,199
Speaker 5: always run the company looking at a range of outcomes

206
00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:49,400
Speaker 5: and so we can handle it easily, so we can

207
00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:51,600
Speaker 5: continue to serve our clients, Like there are three thousand

208
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:54,680
Speaker 5: clients here investor clients, two hundred and fifty corporate clients.

209
00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:57,439
Speaker 5: So whatever the environment is, we're gonna be a good

210
00:08:57,600 --> 00:08:58,520
Speaker 5: serving you properly.

211
00:08:58,600 --> 00:08:59,840
Speaker 1: I don't have to worry about that.

212
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:02,479
Speaker 5: And we're going to invest in our future, whether technology

213
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:03,880
Speaker 5: and new branches and new countries.

214
00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:05,559
Speaker 1: So we always run it that way.

215
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:07,800
Speaker 5: Look at our margins and things like that. Now, of

216
00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:10,400
Speaker 5: course we manage credit. You know, some of the cush

217
00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:12,720
Speaker 5: is managed because you know, people want alone.

218
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:13,280
Speaker 1: They come to us.

219
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:15,960
Speaker 5: We are for access into something more aggressive, and we lose,

220
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:18,200
Speaker 5: and we're totally fine with that. We've seen a bunch

221
00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:21,280
Speaker 5: of that. The lever side. Sometimes we tighten our standards.

222
00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:24,319
Speaker 5: You know, we want more covenance, we want more collateral.

223
00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:27,400
Speaker 5: We are doing less subprime. You know, we trim ourselves

224
00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:30,120
Speaker 5: in credit card for example, where you have lessons learned,

225
00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:31,760
Speaker 5: and once the lessons learned, you make a bunch of

226
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:32,520
Speaker 5: change underrine.

227
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,080
Speaker 1: But we've always been pretty good at underlying credit.

228
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:37,600
Speaker 5: So when there's a cycle, let's get to run through

229
00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:39,280
Speaker 5: our books too, and I'm but we're adults.

230
00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:41,480
Speaker 1: You'll reduce our results. We'll still be fine.

231
00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:43,680
Speaker 3: We talk about some of the technologies in order to

232
00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:44,440
Speaker 3: serve clients.

233
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:47,800
Speaker 4: Artificial intelligence a huge focus, and there's been some pushback

234
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:50,880
Speaker 4: by Japing Morgan investors about the amount that japing market

235
00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:51,520
Speaker 4: is investing.

236
00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:54,320
Speaker 3: How are you looking at?

237
00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:56,560
Speaker 4: What areas you think Japing Morgant's going to win as

238
00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:57,240
Speaker 4: a result of AI?

239
00:09:57,400 --> 00:09:58,640
Speaker 3: And what gives you confidence?

240
00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:01,560
Speaker 5: So everything we do whenever we meet, if you were

241
00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:04,480
Speaker 5: running a business at Chay Morgan at that level, credit card, auto,

242
00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:07,400
Speaker 5: you know, mortgage sales and trained, we always say what

243
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:09,600
Speaker 5: are you doing to grow your business? And that could

244
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:12,840
Speaker 5: be adding great salespeople, if you're any countries. Very often

245
00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:16,679
Speaker 5: it's any technology. It's very formative technology. It's just building

246
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:19,760
Speaker 5: something that's a digital account or an API that are

247
00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:22,600
Speaker 5: customer wants. You know AI and more and more it's AI.

248
00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:26,880
Speaker 5: So we use AI for risk, fraud, marketing, underwriting, no taking.

249
00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:31,680
Speaker 5: I did generation error reporting reducing errors and it's you know,

250
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:33,679
Speaker 5: and there are six hound of use cases. Fifty I'd

251
00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:36,080
Speaker 5: put in the important category and that's part of what

252
00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:38,760
Speaker 5: you do is no different than the past and we

253
00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:40,200
Speaker 5: could do if we can use it to do something

254
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:42,960
Speaker 5: better fast, to clip a cheaper, to hire staff from

255
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:43,439
Speaker 5: the customer.

256
00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:44,280
Speaker 1: We are going to do it.

257
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:46,800
Speaker 5: And so AI is the new front of you know,

258
00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:49,839
Speaker 5: wonderful stuff company. And I think for society, you got

259
00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:51,760
Speaker 5: to remember people talking about the negatives.

260
00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:53,480
Speaker 1: You know, my guess is I really do mean.

261
00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:56,120
Speaker 5: It, Like maybe in thirty or forty years, your kids,

262
00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 5: you have two kids, right, are gonna be working four hours,

263
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:01,000
Speaker 5: four days a week, maybe three and a half days

264
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:02,079
Speaker 5: a week, living two one.

265
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:02,800
Speaker 1: Hundred and twenty.

266
00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:05,000
Speaker 5: A lot of cancers will be cured, a lot of

267
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,760
Speaker 5: diseases will be cured, food will be safer, cars will

268
00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:08,280
Speaker 5: be safer.

269
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:10,160
Speaker 1: It will be a wonderful thing.

270
00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:13,200
Speaker 5: The risk that people are focused on today is that

271
00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:16,720
Speaker 5: somehow it just it gets deployed so fast that people

272
00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:18,360
Speaker 5: don't have time to adjust to it. There are too

273
00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:20,960
Speaker 5: many layoffs, and I think that's legitimate. So companies should

274
00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:22,840
Speaker 5: be thinking about how they canna handle that. And you know,

275
00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:25,360
Speaker 5: I've suggested I may write about this that the government

276
00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:27,760
Speaker 5: should start thinking about how can we help get the

277
00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:30,480
Speaker 5: benefits of the eye and diminish the negatives, And that

278
00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:35,200
Speaker 5: would basically be retraining, relocation, how you use your high schools,

279
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:37,840
Speaker 5: your colleges, your community colleges. You know, to rescale. But

280
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:40,840
Speaker 5: even people are forty to fifty and it's all doable

281
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:42,280
Speaker 5: if we think about how we're going.

282
00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:42,880
Speaker 1: To prepare for it.

283
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:44,120
Speaker 3: Well, do you think that there is going to be

284
00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:45,600
Speaker 3: a smaller workforce for each sector?

285
00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:48,160
Speaker 4: I mean for the banking sector for example, If you

286
00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:50,360
Speaker 4: can consolidate a lot of market share and you can

287
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:54,720
Speaker 4: analyze things much more efficiently, maybe your overall workforce doesn't shrink,

288
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,160
Speaker 4: but your overall book of business expands dramatically.

289
00:11:57,200 --> 00:11:59,000
Speaker 3: I mean, how do you how do you see that?

290
00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:00,839
Speaker 5: I think there will event should be some shrinkers in

291
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:03,520
Speaker 5: the workforce, and I think if you're ahead, you have

292
00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:08,719
Speaker 5: a temporary benefit. Remember the competitive capitalist world, people will

293
00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:11,760
Speaker 5: catch up, and even smaller banks so we support ourselves,

294
00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:15,160
Speaker 5: will get the same services directly from Claude or from

295
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:17,280
Speaker 5: you know, or from FIS.

296
00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:17,520
Speaker 1: Or something like that.

297
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:20,000
Speaker 5: So it isn't like you're gonna have a perman's advantage.

298
00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:22,680
Speaker 5: You have temporary advantages, and if you can stay ahead

299
00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:24,719
Speaker 5: temperar you have an advantage. But I don't I don't

300
00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:26,800
Speaker 5: think you can have a winner take all thing. Uh,

301
00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:29,120
Speaker 5: the world is really competitive, and then look at it

302
00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:31,760
Speaker 5: also opens up, you know, in a good way competition,

303
00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:34,240
Speaker 5: so fintech. So we now have all the big bank

304
00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:37,640
Speaker 5: regular competition, but we also have hundreds of fintech companies

305
00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:42,120
Speaker 5: who're using new technologies to sometimes take just a little

306
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:44,920
Speaker 5: sleeve of business and then expand it and uh, you know,

307
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:46,480
Speaker 5: and it could be data, it could be trust, it

308
00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:50,120
Speaker 5: could be rent payments, it could be course border payments,

309
00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:52,640
Speaker 5: it could be anything like that. So and I appreciate that,

310
00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:54,280
Speaker 5: but we have to some of that money is to

311
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:55,679
Speaker 5: is very specific.

312
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:56,760
Speaker 1: We need to do that too.

313
00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:01,040
Speaker 3: Jamie Diamond appreciates stable coin. No, thank you, I'll take

314
00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:01,360
Speaker 3: you back.

315
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:04,120
Speaker 5: No, we have no promise to you before you Okay,

316
00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:06,679
Speaker 5: but there is a proption properly regulated.

317
00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:06,960
Speaker 1: Yeah.

318
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:09,679
Speaker 4: Yeah, going forward though, do you find a reluctance buy

319
00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:13,560
Speaker 4: some employees to adopt to artificial intelligence because they're worried

320
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:14,839
Speaker 4: about losing their jobs?

321
00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:15,319
Speaker 1: Not really.

322
00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:17,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, we have this so we use like I said,

323
00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:19,480
Speaker 5: we're six or use case if we do it everywhere.

324
00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:23,000
Speaker 5: But we have on our phone at LM Suite and

325
00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:25,600
Speaker 5: we have like twelve or thirteen or fourteen products that

326
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:28,360
Speaker 5: you can use to review your own documents, to write,

327
00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:31,880
Speaker 5: to summarize research, to if you want to ask the

328
00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:34,520
Speaker 5: lawyers want to ask how many legal documents of fifty

329
00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:35,920
Speaker 5: do dogs have these things in it?

330
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:37,880
Speaker 1: And could review that and play that in minutes and.

331
00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:41,600
Speaker 5: One hundred and eighty or one hundred and sixty thousand

332
00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:45,800
Speaker 5: people use it a week, so it's adopted. They say

333
00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:48,160
Speaker 5: they're saving four hours a week on it. Now, we

334
00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:50,360
Speaker 5: don't include that in how we look at productivity because

335
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:53,440
Speaker 5: we don't really see their productivity. They're using it for research,

336
00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:56,040
Speaker 5: no taking, They're going to go see a client, what

337
00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:59,959
Speaker 5: might the client be interested in? And those use case

338
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:03,600
Speaker 5: that those twelve products are being every week, they're adding

339
00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:05,960
Speaker 5: like new products, you know, to do different types of

340
00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:07,520
Speaker 5: things for our for our own employees.

341
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:09,640
Speaker 4: So the mood music so far this year has been

342
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:12,160
Speaker 4: kind of negative around the economy and sort of the

343
00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:14,920
Speaker 4: worries about credit in particular over the past couple of

344
00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:17,360
Speaker 4: weeks in particular, you don't sound that negative.

345
00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:18,560
Speaker 1: Look.

346
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:21,800
Speaker 5: I yeah, I look at the system out there. I

347
00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:26,000
Speaker 5: think they are a big geopolitical risks, sovereign debt risks.

348
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:30,960
Speaker 5: I think inflation is not not beaten yet. I think so, Yeah,

349
00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:33,800
Speaker 5: I'm concerned about that. We've not had a cycle a

350
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:36,640
Speaker 5: long time. I just look at it more like the probabilities.

351
00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:39,520
Speaker 5: I think the probabilities of something going south or more

352
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:42,440
Speaker 5: than other people think, I would price more into the market.

353
00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:44,160
Speaker 1: I could, like I said, we don't run our busits

354
00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:45,720
Speaker 1: that we run a business. We can serve our client.

355
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:47,560
Speaker 5: So but I think there's a little bit too much

356
00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:50,080
Speaker 5: exubras out there, then everything's gonna end up find I

357
00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:52,600
Speaker 5: think the odds to that not even fine or higher

358
00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:53,680
Speaker 5: than some of these other people.

359
00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:56,040
Speaker 3: Do you think the bigger risk is inflation or an

360
00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:56,880
Speaker 3: economic downturn?

361
00:14:57,360 --> 00:14:59,760
Speaker 5: Well, I think they're related. I think inflation because I

362
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:03,400
Speaker 5: comic downturn. But if the economic downturn just couldn't be

363
00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:06,160
Speaker 5: just when you look at history, I have been through

364
00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 5: so many past I mean I've studied, even asked AI

365
00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:12,000
Speaker 5: what happened in seventy three, what happened eighty two?

366
00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:12,560
Speaker 1: What happened?

367
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:15,720
Speaker 5: It's a confluensive events that are hard for you and

368
00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:16,680
Speaker 5: I to see in real time.

369
00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:20,560
Speaker 1: And it's not one thing. It's usually a multitude of things.

370
00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:24,240
