If the S and P five hundred falls 62 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,880 Speaker 9: another five percent today, this will mark the worst stretch 63 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 9: since the market meltdown of nineteen eighty seven, and futures 64 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:31,320 Speaker 9: do indicate last week's five trillion dollars wipeout isn't over, 65 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:33,560 Speaker 9: you knoww York.

According to overnight interest rate swaps, 77 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:06,360 Speaker 10: markets pricing in one hundred and twenty five basis points 78 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:09,480 Speaker 10: of easing by year end, which is equal to five 79 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 10: quarter point moves now. Bob Michael, global head of fixed 80 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 10: income at JP Morgan Asset Management, says the Fed can't 81 00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:18,599 Speaker 10: sit on the sidelines. He also added that they may 82 00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 10: have to cut interest rates before the next meeting in May. 83 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 5: We already know that businesses in the lower rated end 84 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:29,240 Speaker 5: of the quality spectrum have been struggling. When you look 85 00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:32,360 Speaker 5: at private credit and look at the percentage of amend 86 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 5: and extends, it's very high. What happens when their cost 87 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 5: of funding just ratcheted up another couple percent and they're 88 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:42,040 Speaker 5: going to see top flying growth come down as well 89 00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:44,800 Speaker 5: as their input costs go up. I think this is 90 00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:46,040 Speaker 5: a serious moment now. 91 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:49,919 Speaker 10: TD Securities also pulled forward its policy easing expectations. In 92 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:53,039 Speaker 10: a note, strategist Oscar Munos wrote that the brokerage is 93 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 10: advancing its forecast for the rate cut to June from 94 00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 10: July and now expects the committee will ease rates at 95 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:03,000 Speaker 10: each meeting through May twenty six. But at all experts 96 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:04,479 Speaker 10: feel the same way you have. In a post on 97 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 10: X Double Line Capital's Jeffrey Gunlock, he said he does 98 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:11,679 Speaker 10: not see a single cut anytime soon unless the losses 99 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:15,840 Speaker 10: and risk assets greatly increase.

The hardest hit this morning is 102 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 2: in Asia, where stocks in Hong Kong plunged and stocks 103 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 2: in Japan fell into a bear market. Let's get the 104 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 2: very latest and check out with the Bloomberg steal thesis. 105 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 2: Who continues our global team coverage in Hong Kong and 106 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 2: Jill please give us an update on the carnage. 107 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:37,159 Speaker 11: Good morning, Karen and Nathan. Yes, it's been an absolute 108 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,919 Speaker 11: bloodbath in Asia this morning, throughout the entire day, really 109 00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:44,040 Speaker 11: the NIKA two two five stock average and Japan slid 110 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,880 Speaker 11: into a market. As you mentioned that blue chip indecks 111 00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 11: closing down seven point eight percent, experiencing its first bear 112 00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:53,360 Speaker 11: market since August. That's back when the Bank of Japan 113 00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 11: unexpectedly hiked rates. We're also seeing quite a lot of 114 00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:00,839 Speaker 11: fallout in China. That's where closely watched gage Chinese shares 115 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:04,159 Speaker 11: in Hong Kong A tumbled nearly fourteen percent. That was 116 00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 11: also entering a bear market. We've seen some similar stories 117 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 11: in Taipei where TSMC really led losses. India has also experienced, 118 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:16,000 Speaker 11: you know, some fallout today. I mean, really, what investors 119 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,799 Speaker 11: here in Asia are experiencing. What they're trying to gauge 120 00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:21,640 Speaker 11: here is not just the impact from these tariffs, the 121 00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:24,520 Speaker 11: Donald Trump tariffs, but also what kind of reaction we're 122 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:27,000 Speaker 11: really seeing in region it's really China. I think that's 123 00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,599 Speaker 11: really kind of you know, led this region here. Just 124 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:32,640 Speaker 11: a couple of days ago, launched a bunch of retaliatory efforts, 125 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:36,120 Speaker 11: including measures to introduce a thirty four percent tariff on 126 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:38,680 Speaker 11: all American goods starting April tenth. That sort of led 127 00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:41,680 Speaker 11: to fears that this trade war is really just going 128 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:44,560 Speaker 11: to escalate. Donald Trump has really sort of hit back 129 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:46,839 Speaker 11: against that, you know, ended up sort of calling off 130 00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 11: what he said was a deal to reach a sale 131 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 11: for TikTok. So you're really seeing a lot that's developing there. 132 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:54,720 Speaker 11: We'll have to see whether this continues to spread out 133 00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 11: through the rest of the week. We're still waiting to 134 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,839 Speaker 11: see how other governments in Asia are ultimately going to 135 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:01,920 Speaker 11: respond here, Hong Kong, Jill Esis, Bloomberg News. 136 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:04,520 Speaker 3: Jill, thank you.

Valerie, 277 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:12,680 Speaker 3: the President says he might not be able to predict 278 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:15,560 Speaker 3: what the market's doing, but the market seems to be 279 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:18,400 Speaker 3: sending a pretty loud message to the President this morning. 280 00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:21,720 Speaker 17: Oh yeah, and I want to echo the flashbacks to 281 00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 17: Black Monday. If this move in the S and P 282 00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:27,760 Speaker 17: five hundred futures holds into the clothes, we are looking 283 00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:30,800 Speaker 17: at the worst three days for the US equity market 284 00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:34,240 Speaker 17: since nineteen eighty seven, when it dropped twenty four point 285 00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:36,680 Speaker 17: six in a matter of two days, So keep an 286 00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 17: eye on those kind of superlatives. That just really puts 287 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:42,560 Speaker 17: it into perspective. Black Monday, GFC, COVID, that is what 288 00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:46,320 Speaker 17: people are comparing the last market drop to. And Nathan, 289 00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:49,760 Speaker 17: the one thing that's in stark contrast to what's going 290 00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:53,440 Speaker 17: on now versus those other instances in the past is 291 00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:58,280 Speaker 17: during those other instances you had the monetary easing floodgates open, 292 00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:01,600 Speaker 17: the fiscal easing floodgates open after Black Monday, during the 293 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:04,360 Speaker 17: Great Financial Crisis, and during COVID. But what stands now 294 00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:06,520 Speaker 17: is a start contrast, so that we have a FED 295 00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:09,040 Speaker 17: who says that they are going to be patient and 296 00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:12,680 Speaker 17: wait for further clarity. Mike Wilson over at Morgan Stanley 297 00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:15,120 Speaker 17: noting that the S and P five hundred could drop 298 00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:19,040 Speaker 17: another seven to eight percent if the FED remains on 299 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:21,920 Speaker 17: hold and these tariffs continue in the market. 300 00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 3: But while we're seeing these selling continuing here on Wall Street, 301 00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:30,120 Speaker 3: it looks, at least at this point this morning, like 302 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:32,280 Speaker 3: the sell off is even worse overseas. 303 00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:33,400 Speaker 6: Valerie, Yeah, that's right. 304 00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:35,960 Speaker 17: And the European open, Nathan, was quite shaky. We had 305 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:39,360 Speaker 17: the dacks drop ten percent at the open that's its 306 00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:43,200 Speaker 17: third biggest gap lower in history. We're also seeing credit 307 00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:47,440 Speaker 17: spreads widen across a high yield and investment grade in Europe, 308 00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:51,120 Speaker 17: and that's leading to a very punishing session for European banks. 309 00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:54,600 Speaker 17: SX SEVNY is down six point seven percent and over 310 00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:57,440 Speaker 17: the last three days, Nathan, it's nearing a near twenty 311 00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:00,880 Speaker 17: percent slide in European banks in the last three sessions. 312 00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:03,640 Speaker 6: It's hard not to notice Valerie. 313 00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:06,920 Speaker 3: This more than thirteen percent close for the Hangsang in 314 00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:10,880 Speaker 3: Hong Kong. The Asian session has been absolutely brutal. As 315 00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:14,200 Speaker 3: China sounds like it's not willing to back down either. 316 00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:17,240 Speaker 17: Yeah, it was a bloodbath that HSI index, the Hangksang 317 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 17: in Hong Kong dropping thirteen percent, Nathan. That's its worst 318 00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:24,240 Speaker 17: one day drop since the Asian Financial Crisis of nineteen 319 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:28,440 Speaker 17: ninety seven. The Broader Asia Index, the MSCI Asia Pacific 320 00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:31,960 Speaker 17: had its worst one day drop since October two thousand 321 00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:35,280 Speaker 17: and eight. We had the Nicky entering into bear market territory, 322 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:37,880 Speaker 17: and the eight shares that trade in Hong Kong also 323 00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:41,280 Speaker 17: down more than twenty percent from peak. The one thing though, 324 00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:44,720 Speaker 17: that may be a solace for those em Asian nations 325 00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:47,120 Speaker 17: is the fact that we are not seeing a rip 326 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:50,840 Speaker 17: roaring rally in the dollar, and that could be you know, 327 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 17: one aspect of perhaps positivity for these nations who in 328 00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:59,600 Speaker 17: normal times of economic instability they have to deal with 329 00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:03,680 Speaker 17: capital flight and their currencies depreciating strongly versus the dollar. 330 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:06,000 Speaker 17: We at least are not seeing that as yet. 331 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:09,399 Speaker 3: Bloomberg Marketers reporter Valerie Titel, thank you for this as 332 00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:11,720 Speaker 3: we continue to watch the global market sell off.

Good morning, Yeah, good morning. 340 00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:39,520 Speaker 18: So I think, unfortunately you do have the confluence of 341 00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:43,679 Speaker 18: a number of quite negative factors where it is hard 342 00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:48,399 Speaker 18: to see enough offsets you had before the tariff announcement. 343 00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:52,480 Speaker 18: I think already a deteriorating earnings picture in the US 344 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:56,680 Speaker 18: with negative revisions, You had deterioration and leading economic indicators 345 00:17:57,240 --> 00:18:01,000 Speaker 18: like consumer confidence, and then you also had signs of 346 00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:05,320 Speaker 18: inflation rising. You know, recalled that the last three prints 347 00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:10,040 Speaker 18: for core PC, the Fed's preferred measure, have increased for 348 00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:14,200 Speaker 18: three straight months. So we walked into this tarif announcement, 349 00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:16,720 Speaker 18: I think, with a quite challenging macro backdrop. And then 350 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:19,840 Speaker 18: the tariffs that we got were much larger than expected. 351 00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:22,679 Speaker 18: They were, you know, I think, much more severe than 352 00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:26,760 Speaker 18: our forecast than many forecasters has penciled in. And so 353 00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:30,960 Speaker 18: that creates additional downside risk to growth, additional upside risk 354 00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:35,639 Speaker 18: to inflation, and also this challenging dynamic where it's not 355 00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:41,440 Speaker 18: clear that either valuations or a policy change is right 356 00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:43,560 Speaker 18: there for support. So I thought, your colleague, you know 357 00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:47,359 Speaker 18: what they just mentioned about. You know, previously under some 358 00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:50,920 Speaker 18: of this weakness, you had fiscal stimulus or you had easing. 359 00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:53,680 Speaker 18: We think that's going to be much more more difficult. 360 00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:56,960 Speaker 18: The FED is missing much more on their inflation mandate 361 00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:59,719 Speaker 18: than they're missing on the jobs part of their mandate. Right, 362 00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:03,000 Speaker 18: we had actually a pretty good payroll number on Friday, 363 00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:06,399 Speaker 18: whereas core PCE is two point eight percent in the 364 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:10,040 Speaker 18: US we think that makes it quite difficult for the 365 00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:12,359 Speaker 18: FED to cut. We think that the FED will cut 366 00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:15,480 Speaker 18: far less than the market is expecting this year at 367 00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 18: Morgan Stanley, and valuations still remain elevated. The S and 368 00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:21,240 Speaker 18: P is still at nineteen times. So I think you 369 00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:23,879 Speaker 18: put all that together, and while it's always difficult to 370 00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:27,120 Speaker 18: be too precise, that still means that there's potential for downside. 371 00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:29,640 Speaker 3: So then, Andrew, what do you make of the move 372 00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:32,160 Speaker 3: that we're seeing in the money markets. The money markets 373 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:35,959 Speaker 3: pricing in fully five FED rate cuts this year and 374 00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:39,119 Speaker 3: even some calls now for an emergency cut before the 375 00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:40,280 Speaker 3: next meeting next month. 376 00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:43,600 Speaker 18: Yeah, we disagreed with that. We do think markets are 377 00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:46,640 Speaker 18: looking at the equity weakness. As you mentioned, this is historic. 378 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:50,280 Speaker 18: It's one of the largest three day drawdowns that we've 379 00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:53,040 Speaker 18: seen in a very long period of time, and you know, 380 00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:56,679 Speaker 18: I think markets are understandably saying, well, a drawdown of 381 00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 18: that measure would naturally invite a response, But our view 382 00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:03,280 Speaker 18: is that that will be much more difficult that inflations 383 00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:07,600 Speaker 18: in a more difficult place. And because it's I think 384 00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:11,240 Speaker 18: it's also not clear that FED rate cuts would necessarily 385 00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:14,560 Speaker 18: address the issue. The uncertainty from tariffs. The costs of 386 00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:18,040 Speaker 18: tariffs are not easily offset by say, you know, an 387 00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 18: emergency twenty five or fifty basis point rate cut. The 388 00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:24,199 Speaker 18: issues go deeper. So you know, we think that the 389 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:28,920 Speaker 18: Fed will will need to and ultimately stay more focused 390 00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:33,080 Speaker 18: on its mandate unless we see more seizure or tightness 391 00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:36,520 Speaker 18: in say credit issuance markets, which we just haven't seen yet. 392 00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 3: Well, what do you make of the widening and credit 393 00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:41,360 Speaker 3: spreads that we've started to see now in Asia and 394 00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:42,280 Speaker 3: in Europe. 395 00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:45,680 Speaker 18: Yeah, So, I think what's fascinating is that I think 396 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 18: credit has a reputation, I like to think, a well 397 00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:52,600 Speaker 18: earned reputation of usually being an early indicator. But in 398 00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:55,520 Speaker 18: this cycle that has not been the case. Credit has 399 00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:59,320 Speaker 18: been quite slow to catch up to weakness that has 400 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:01,919 Speaker 18: been in the equity market for some time. And I 401 00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:06,480 Speaker 18: think that speaks to a credit cycle that is entering 402 00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:10,240 Speaker 18: this downturn in a better place. You know, companies were 403 00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:13,119 Speaker 18: somewhat more cautious and less aggressive coming into this m 404 00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:16,440 Speaker 18: and A was low. Balance sheet leverage has been stable, 405 00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:20,720 Speaker 18: so I do think credit remains a follower here. I 406 00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:23,960 Speaker 18: don't think that we should necessarily see credit as a 407 00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:27,720 Speaker 18: leading indicator. I think it's following the broader uncertainty around 408 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:31,280 Speaker 18: the growth and policy that's coming from the administration and 409 00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:34,000 Speaker 18: these questions around the Fed. But I think what we're 410 00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:36,520 Speaker 18: seeing from credit should be seen as a catching up. 411 00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:40,040 Speaker 18: You know, even after the moves this morning, we're really 412 00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:43,240 Speaker 18: kind of just back to average levels of spreads. We 413 00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:45,680 Speaker 18: think that's kind of very reasonable given the risks that 414 00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:46,719 Speaker 18: are surrounding the market. 415 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:49,919 Speaker 3: We're speaking with andrews Sheets, chief cross assets strategist at 416 00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:53,439 Speaker 3: Morgan Stanley as we continue to monitor this global stock 417 00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:57,440 Speaker 3: sell off and flight, particularly this morning into treasuries, we're 418 00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:01,200 Speaker 3: seeing gains across the curve in the treasuries market. 419 00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:02,920 Speaker 6: Andrew, where do you reallocate? 420 00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:06,800 Speaker 3: How do you advise clients to make moves in this environment? 421 00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:10,600 Speaker 18: Well, so, we do think that move in interest rates 422 00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:14,560 Speaker 18: is correct that if the odds of a recession are rising, 423 00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:18,680 Speaker 18: and I think that, unfortunately, is what is happening, given 424 00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:22,280 Speaker 18: these risks to growth, and also the potential that the 425 00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:26,680 Speaker 18: Fed cannot react as quickly to those growth risks because 426 00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 18: inflation is persistent, you know, we think the market will 427 00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:33,399 Speaker 18: will respond to that by lowering interest rates, especially you know, 428 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:36,560 Speaker 18: kind of somewhat further further out the curve. So you know, 429 00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:39,639 Speaker 18: we do think yields will will fall here further in 430 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:43,200 Speaker 18: the US and in the UK and in Germany. 431 00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:44,680 Speaker 15: And you know, I. 432 00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:47,040 Speaker 18: Think that's also something that if we look back to 433 00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:50,040 Speaker 18: say twenty eighteen, you know, in the fourth quarter of 434 00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:53,000 Speaker 18: twenty eighteen, you also had a large draw down. You know, 435 00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:56,159 Speaker 18: that was also somewhat related to tariff uncertainty, it was 436 00:22:56,200 --> 00:23:00,879 Speaker 18: related to the FED the administration not shift policy as 437 00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:03,840 Speaker 18: quickly as the market was hoping they would. You know, 438 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:07,560 Speaker 18: real interest rates in the US, real interest rates on 439 00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:11,359 Speaker 18: ten year government bonds are still much higher, you know, 440 00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:14,879 Speaker 18: more attractive than they were during that episode at the 441 00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:18,320 Speaker 18: worst part of that episode. While you know, equity valuations 442 00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:21,159 Speaker 18: in the US today are still much more expensive than 443 00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:23,200 Speaker 18: at the worst part of that episode. So you know, 444 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:26,359 Speaker 18: I still think that if if investors are worried about 445 00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:29,520 Speaker 18: growth picking up, then you know, we still think bonds 446 00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:32,160 Speaker 18: offer kind of reasonable value here, and we think that 447 00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:34,359 Speaker 18: that's the direction that reallocation will continue in. 448 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:37,920 Speaker 3: If we do continue to see stocks and bond yields fall, 449 00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:39,960 Speaker 3: what does that mean for financial conditions? 450 00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:42,640 Speaker 6: What could it mean for the FED and then that regard. 451 00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:46,439 Speaker 18: So, you know, financial conditions are tightening obviously, you know, 452 00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:48,600 Speaker 18: you have some push and pull here with with with 453 00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:53,200 Speaker 18: equities going down, you know, but also rates coming down. 454 00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:55,600 Speaker 18: But I think that the challenge for the FED is 455 00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:59,520 Speaker 18: it's not clear that those financial conditions are excessively tight. 456 00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 18: You know it, spreads today are kind of near the 457 00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:05,560 Speaker 18: long run average. That's that's fine. You know, the S 458 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:09,119 Speaker 18: and P has still roughly nineteen times forward earnings that 459 00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:12,440 Speaker 18: that does not seem like an excessive level of equity 460 00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:16,359 Speaker 18: risk premium. That would suggest some sort of market breakage. So, 461 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:19,600 Speaker 18: you know, and I think you still have credit markets 462 00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:22,560 Speaker 18: where you know, you have credit markets have been open, 463 00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:26,080 Speaker 18: it's been possible to issue. You know, the latest Senior 464 00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:30,199 Speaker 18: Loan Officer survey suggested that credit standards were loosening a 465 00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:32,960 Speaker 18: bit in the US rather than tightening. So I think 466 00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:36,720 Speaker 18: it's kind of hard to look at that full spread 467 00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:40,040 Speaker 18: of financial conditions and say that there's something here that 468 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:46,679 Speaker 18: invites a really large shift. Again, we could get it, 469 00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:49,280 Speaker 18: but I don't think you've seen it yet, And especially 470 00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:52,000 Speaker 18: for a FED that is is also dealing with inflation 471 00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:55,280 Speaker 18: that's above its target, is dealing with inflation expectations that 472 00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:57,880 Speaker 18: have been going up significantly. You know, we think that 473 00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:00,320 Speaker 18: that is going to provide a level of caution that 474 00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:02,680 Speaker 18: prevents this This larger intervention. 475 00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:07,159 Speaker 2: Might otherwise cat This is Bloomberg Daybreak, your morning podcast 476 00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:10,280 Speaker 2: on the stories making news from Wall Street to Washington 477 00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:11,000 Speaker 2: and beyond. 478 00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:13,640 Speaker 3: Look for us on your podcast feed by six am 479 00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:17,080 Speaker 3: Eastern each morning, on Apple, Spotify, or anywhere else you listen. 480 00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:20,160 Speaker 2: You can also listen live each morning starting at five 481 00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:22,880 Speaker 2: am Wall Street Time on Bloomberg eleven three to zero 482 00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:25,800 Speaker 2: in New York, Bloomberg in ninety nine to one in Washington, 483 00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:29,800 Speaker 2: Bloomberg ninety two nine in Boston, and nationwide on serious 484 00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:31,560 Speaker 2: XM Channel one twenty one. 485 00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:34,680 Speaker 3: Plus listen coast to coast on the Bloomberg Business app 486 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:37,560 Speaker 3: now with Apple CarPlay and Android auto interfaces. 487 00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:40,800 Speaker 2: And don't forget to subscribe to Bloomberg News Now.
