I'll have that story more coming up 14 00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:54,000 Speaker 1: in Bloomberg Sports. That's all straight ahead on Bloomberg Daybreak Asia, 15 00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:56,760 Speaker 1: the business news you need to start your day, and 16 00:00:56,880 --> 00:01:01,000 Speaker 1: just one fifteen minute podcast available on Apple, Spotify, the 17 00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:07,480 Speaker 1: Bloomberg Business App and everywhere you get your podcasts. Good morning, 18 00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:10,120 Speaker 1: I'm Do Prisoner and I'm Brian Curtis. Here are the 19 00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:14,839 Speaker 1: stories we're following today. CPI data shows investors are realizing 20 00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:17,960 Speaker 1: that inflation is likely to remain higher for some time 21 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:21,280 Speaker 1: to come. Former I m F Chief economist Ken Rogoff 22 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:25,080 Speaker 1: told us that the feds two percent inflation target remains 23 00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:27,640 Speaker 1: part of the problem. Back in the day, they should 24 00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:30,760 Speaker 1: have set three percent instead of two percent, but they didn't. 25 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:35,160 Speaker 1: And you know, they've really made commitments. If you change it, 26 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:37,360 Speaker 1: it means you might change it again. So I think 27 00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 1: what in fact will happen. I don't think we're going 28 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:41,800 Speaker 1: to have a soft landing, by the way. I think 29 00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:44,880 Speaker 1: we're gonna have soft but not the landing. I think 30 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:47,800 Speaker 1: inflations they're gonna allow to be alibated for longer, but 31 00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:50,480 Speaker 1: they're gonna say it's going to get back to two percent. 32 00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 1: We're just taking longer. I think that's going to be 33 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 1: the rhetoric. Rogof added that the Fed will have to 34 00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 1: figure out where to put the interest rate longer terms 35 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 1: so that the US doesn't have inflation. So after that 36 00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:06,160 Speaker 1: CPI report, the Fed officials began stressing the need for 37 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:08,480 Speaker 1: further rate increases. We heard from the head of the 38 00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:11,640 Speaker 1: Dallas Fed, Lory Logan. She was saying much more it 39 00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:13,919 Speaker 1: may be needed, and the FED should not lock in 40 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:17,120 Speaker 1: on a peak interest rate or a precise path of 41 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:19,960 Speaker 1: those rate increases. We also heard today from the head 42 00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:22,519 Speaker 1: of the Richmond FED, Tom Barkin. Here's what he had 43 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:24,960 Speaker 1: to say earlier on Bloomberg. We may or may not 44 00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:28,799 Speaker 1: choose to take rates up further if inflation continues to persist, 45 00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:31,120 Speaker 1: but we'll have to see what happens. If inflation settles, 46 00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:33,600 Speaker 1: maybe we don't go quite as far. But if inflation 47 00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:36,799 Speaker 1: persists and levels well above our our target, maybe we'll 48 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:39,760 Speaker 1: have to do more. Richmond Fed President Tom Barkin. Then 49 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:42,840 Speaker 1: later in the day it was John Williams, who runs 50 00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 1: the New York FED, saying subdued economic growth and labor 51 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:50,239 Speaker 1: market weakness will likely be required to bring inflation back 52 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:52,920 Speaker 1: down to that two percent target. Not to be left 53 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 1: out Pat Harker, the head of the Philly FED. He 54 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:58,160 Speaker 1: added his voice in believing the Fed will need to 55 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:01,839 Speaker 1: take rates somewhere above that five percent level. He also 56 00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 1: said data will dictate how high the Fed will need 57 00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:09,919 Speaker 1: to go. Well life goes on, we have President Biden 58 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:13,959 Speaker 1: naming FED Vice Chair Lal Brainerd as his top economic aid. 59 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 1: She will replace Brian Deese as head of White House 60 00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:21,919 Speaker 1: National Economic Council. More from Bloomberg's Michael McKee Leal Brainerd 61 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 1: has a lot of experience in Washington. She was Deputy 62 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 1: Treasury Secretary. She was the deputy head of the National 63 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:32,520 Speaker 1: Economic Council before, so she has worked on the political 64 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 1: side for many years as well as on the monetary 65 00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:38,120 Speaker 1: policy side. So she knows everything about what's going on 66 00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:40,840 Speaker 1: in Washington. And she is also considered to be a 67 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 1: very capable kind of I don't want to use the 68 00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 1: word bureaucrat, but somebody who knows how to get things done. 69 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 1: The FED said that brainer had submitted her resignation as 70 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:54,040 Speaker 1: vice chair and it's effective on or around February. Her 71 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 1: departure means the FED will no longer have one of 72 00:03:56,400 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 1: its most devish voices. FED watchers wasted no time coming 73 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 1: up with potential replacements. Names circulating include Karen Dinon and 74 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 1: Janice Everley, who served as economist in the Obama Treasury Department, 75 00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 1: and Brian Sack, the one time head of the New 76 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 1: York FEDS Market Group, was also floated as a possibility. 77 00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 1: And I say life goes on. We often think that 78 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:20,599 Speaker 1: it's all about the FED and is all about rates 79 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 1: that people do change jobs and go about their business. 80 00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:27,080 Speaker 1: Indeed they do. After the bell, Airbnb gave an outlook 81 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:29,839 Speaker 1: for revenue in the current quarter that was above estimates. 82 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:33,520 Speaker 1: More from Bloomberg's Charlie Pellett. It signals that travel demand 83 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 1: remains robust even after a record here for growth in 84 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 1: two Airbnb has been a major beneficiary of the work 85 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 1: and lifestyle changes brought on by the pandemic, and now 86 00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 1: it's starting to see some of the trends that benefited 87 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:51,240 Speaker 1: from such as people renting large rural homes for weeks 88 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:54,279 Speaker 1: or months at a time reverse and travelers off for 89 00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:59,520 Speaker 1: shorter stays in big cities and more international destinations in 90 00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:05,360 Speaker 1: New York. Charlie Pellette, Bloomberg Daybreak Asia. Air India is 91 00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:08,760 Speaker 1: behind what stands to be the largest purchase ever made 92 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 1: in commercial aviation history. Bloomberg's and Kate's with the story. 93 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:16,320 Speaker 1: Air India has announced a four hundred seventy plane order 94 00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:19,599 Speaker 1: with Airbus and Boeing, underscoring the industry's recovery from the 95 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:22,800 Speaker 1: pandemic and the airline's ambition to become a global force. 96 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:25,840 Speaker 1: The deal involves two hundred fifty Airbus jets and two 97 00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 1: hundred twenty Boeing models. President Biden and Indian Prime Minister 98 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 1: Norndra Body held a phone conversation to discuss the transaction. 99 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 1: Body called on Boeing and other US companies to explore 100 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 1: opportunities arising from India's civil aviation sector in Washington and 101 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 1: Kate's Bloomberg Daybreak Asia. Well, Doug, I have to say this, Um, 102 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 1: it's bad that goods disinflation has slowed a little bit 103 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 1: for people hoping that inflation would come down sharply. But 104 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:56,880 Speaker 1: it's it's good that services ex housing, which is kind 105 00:05:56,880 --> 00:06:00,280 Speaker 1: of tied to wages, only rose zero point three sent 106 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 1: month on month net net. I think from the equity 107 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 1: market standpoint, don't follow out of bed just yet. Yeah, 108 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 1: you're right about that. And I think if you look 109 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,440 Speaker 1: at what the Cleveland Fed is saying, maybe some worrying 110 00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 1: signs they're underlying inflation tracker is pointing to some price 111 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:19,440 Speaker 1: pressure persisting both on a monthly and a twelve month basis, 112 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:23,040 Speaker 1: so in selected pockets, I think you're right, Brian. You've 113 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:25,880 Speaker 1: got to be very careful about saying that inflation the 114 00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 1: problem is beginning to kind of wane a little bit. 115 00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 1: It may be sticky for some time. People seized on 116 00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 1: Patrick Harker's comment that we're not done yet, but we 117 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:38,599 Speaker 1: are likely close. Yeah, but that's also to say that 118 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 1: when they get to wherever their destination point is, the 119 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:44,559 Speaker 1: so called terminal rate, things may end up being held 120 00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 1: higher for quite a bit longer. The other thing that 121 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:50,600 Speaker 1: I thought was interesting today we were talking about FED speakers. 122 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 1: John Williams from the New York Fed was pushing out 123 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 1: rate cuts maybe sometimes into or even Yeah. Absolutely. Now 124 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:05,159 Speaker 1: it's time for global news. The US says that three 125 00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:10,720 Speaker 1: of as of yet not identified objects down since Friday. 126 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 1: They don't appear to be government linked. That Baxter has 127 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:18,120 Speaker 1: Global News from the nine six newswom in San Francisco. Yeah, right, Brian. 128 00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 1: The Pentagon is saying likely for commercial use and not 129 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:23,880 Speaker 1: foreign intelligence gathering. And the White House says now that 130 00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:26,720 Speaker 1: China has been launching balloons over the US for years, 131 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 1: but has just recently ramped things up. National Security Council 132 00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:32,920 Speaker 1: spokesman John Kirby, we have been studying the Chinese by 133 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,080 Speaker 1: balloon program since we came into office. This is a 134 00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 1: program that they have been working on for several years, 135 00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:41,200 Speaker 1: so they have ramped up their abilities. They have ramped 136 00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:45,280 Speaker 1: up their deployment of these balloons over just recent years. Yeah. 137 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:48,280 Speaker 1: Kirby says Congress was briefed about it and classified setting 138 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 1: going back to last August, and the full Senate got 139 00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:54,320 Speaker 1: a classified briefing about the status today and Bloomberg examily 140 00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 1: Wilkins says, the overall message coming up a call for transparency, 141 00:07:57,840 --> 00:07:59,760 Speaker 1: and really what you're getting from senators is a call 142 00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:02,000 Speaker 1: for transparency, a call for the Way House to take 143 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:05,160 Speaker 1: this issue seriously and even if we don't know every 144 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:07,880 Speaker 1: last detail about some of these objects, to make sure 145 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 1: that they're just clearly communicating with the American people on 146 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:14,960 Speaker 1: this because of how sensitive this poticial potential issue could be. 147 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:18,040 Speaker 1: Emily says, they call for a speech by the President 148 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 1: and Leon Panetta, former U S Secretary of Defense, c 149 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 1: i A Director Presidential Chief of Staff today on balance 150 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:27,200 Speaker 1: of powers says, one explanation for the recent change in 151 00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 1: balloon activity is carefully thought out by the Chinese. China 152 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:35,560 Speaker 1: may very well be harassing us with these objects, UH 153 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 1: to try to create the kind of confusion that's taking 154 00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:42,760 Speaker 1: place in Washington right now is how we deal with it, 155 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,199 Speaker 1: and says so far as succeeded. We've got to have 156 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:48,760 Speaker 1: a strategy. I think if they are related to China, 157 00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:51,600 Speaker 1: all of them, then we've got to develop that strategy, 158 00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:55,120 Speaker 1: hopefully in conjunction with China. If not, we're going to 159 00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 1: have to continue to shoot him down if they represent 160 00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:01,360 Speaker 1: a threat to the United States or to our airspace, 161 00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:04,640 Speaker 1: and he says Biden has done the right thing so far. Meanwhile, 162 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 1: the Pentagon scrambled fighter jets to counter for Russian aircraft 163 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:11,920 Speaker 1: that approached but did not enter US or Canadian airspace. 164 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:15,199 Speaker 1: Fishers describe it as a routine encounter, unrelated to the 165 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:19,880 Speaker 1: series of unidentified objects shot down in recent days. Nikki 166 00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 1: Hayley is officially a candidate for president of the United States. 167 00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:27,480 Speaker 1: In her presidential video to the here announcement, she immediately 168 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:31,559 Speaker 1: pushed buttons on China and Russia. John and Russia are 169 00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:34,520 Speaker 1: on the march. They all think we can be bullied 170 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:38,920 Speaker 1: kicked around. You should know this about me. I don't 171 00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 1: put up with bullies, and when you kick back, it 172 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:46,560 Speaker 1: hurts them more if you're wearing heels. She also says 173 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:49,600 Speaker 1: it's a time for Republicans to win the popular vote again. 174 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:54,040 Speaker 1: Global News powered by more than undred journalists and analysts 175 00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:57,400 Speaker 1: and over one hundred twenty countries. In San Francisco, I'm 176 00:09:57,400 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 1: at Baxter and this is bloom This is Bloomberg, Gay 177 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:05,000 Speaker 1: Break Asia and Brian Curtis along with Rashad salamat here 178 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:08,439 Speaker 1: in Hong Kong. Our guest is Rebecca Walser, President of 179 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 1: Walzer Wealth. Rebecca we mentioned that the equity market seemed 180 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:16,360 Speaker 1: to take this CPI report more or less in stride, 181 00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 1: while the bond market reacted much more sharply. Why well, 182 00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 1: because the bond market obviously has an inverse relationship with 183 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:26,640 Speaker 1: rising interest rates. And even though we all believe don't 184 00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:28,760 Speaker 1: fight the Fed, what we've seen as the market really 185 00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:31,959 Speaker 1: pushing the Fed to change their position. Right. They all 186 00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:35,120 Speaker 1: priced in a QW three pivots, and we all the 187 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:38,599 Speaker 1: Fed has been very consistent from the beginning that this 188 00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:41,240 Speaker 1: could be a long road and that they've constantly talked 189 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:43,720 Speaker 1: about getting inflation to a specific level for a sustained 190 00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 1: period of time. So when you have a CPI number 191 00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 1: that shows, you know, Mrs consensus is showing that the 192 00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:52,959 Speaker 1: inflation is not happening in US fast, or disinflation is 193 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:55,319 Speaker 1: not happening as fast as expected. The market has to 194 00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:58,199 Speaker 1: start saying, okay, hike in March and a hike in 195 00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:00,360 Speaker 1: May is not going to be sufficient. We're going to 196 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 1: have to hike more. And being a a you know, 197 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:05,120 Speaker 1: a terminal rate of five two or five to five 198 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 1: is not going to be enough. And if you guys 199 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:09,000 Speaker 1: can remember, if you look at the analysis that we 200 00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:12,560 Speaker 1: really saw in two, the analysis was broader. It always 201 00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:16,200 Speaker 1: said that the terminary should be somewhere between five and seven. 202 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 1: So it was really the market that was kind of 203 00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:21,040 Speaker 1: clued in onto the lower end of that range. And 204 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:23,520 Speaker 1: you see Jamie Diamond coming out last week saying, you know, 205 00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:25,640 Speaker 1: the sign might have to go to six. And this 206 00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 1: is just indicative of that. Uh I mean, what has 207 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:32,400 Speaker 1: to look at the data a bit more? Uh I 208 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:35,079 Speaker 1: suppose in a granny of fashion, because if you look 209 00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:38,520 Speaker 1: at it, it's shelter, which was the main reason why 210 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:41,880 Speaker 1: we still such an increase there. Now what does that 211 00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 1: tell you, Well, it tells me that we still have 212 00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:48,959 Speaker 1: a very mobile society that hasn't quite felt the pinch 213 00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:50,920 Speaker 1: of maybe we would have thought they would have felt 214 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:54,000 Speaker 1: because that means that people are still mobile, they're still moving, 215 00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:58,040 Speaker 1: and they're still making the prices of you know, where 216 00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 1: they're living continue to a fleet. Whereas if you have 217 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:03,719 Speaker 1: a demand destruction like we've had in some of the 218 00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:08,120 Speaker 1: you know the the uh you know, just disposal income, 219 00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:11,000 Speaker 1: you know, goods. You see that kind of demand destroying, 220 00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:13,360 Speaker 1: but you can't, you know, you should be able to 221 00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:16,480 Speaker 1: pick a cheaper place to live. But like I'm based 222 00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 1: in Florida and everyone is moving here. My city specifically 223 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:22,280 Speaker 1: is like now the number one city a coordinate to 224 00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:24,560 Speaker 1: Forbes to move to in the United States. So people 225 00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:28,400 Speaker 1: are still very mobile. Go ahead. In any case, shelter 226 00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:31,640 Speaker 1: is is longer term. It takes longer to adjust because 227 00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:35,640 Speaker 1: if for nothing else, one year leases in such But many, 228 00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:38,120 Speaker 1: many economists are saying that's going to drop like a 229 00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:40,760 Speaker 1: stone in the second half of this year. You agree 230 00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:44,040 Speaker 1: with that, um, I I think that it should have 231 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:47,160 Speaker 1: already dropped. I mean, it's it's been amazing how tack 232 00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:50,160 Speaker 1: you know, how sticky this has really been because we 233 00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:53,800 Speaker 1: see all of the there's just a wide breath of 234 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:55,920 Speaker 1: data that we see that we would expect you have 235 00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:58,679 Speaker 1: already dropped and it's just being really sticky. So I 236 00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:00,720 Speaker 1: I hate to make it pretty action as fast as 237 00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:03,439 Speaker 1: next uh, next quarter, but I honestly think that we 238 00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:06,480 Speaker 1: it has to drop. People can't afford these rates, and 239 00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 1: we've seen mortgages and honestly housing US starts and all 240 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:12,160 Speaker 1: of that completely affected by interest rates. And so it's 241 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:15,560 Speaker 1: the rental market that has to come next. Okay, let's 242 00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:17,679 Speaker 1: have a look now at the overall markets and what 243 00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 1: they're having to deal with. It's just you know, you've 244 00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:21,559 Speaker 1: got the FED, You've got the inflation I think is 245 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:23,480 Speaker 1: of course very much dominant. But let's not forget we've 246 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:27,480 Speaker 1: got Ukraine still, We've got balloons as well, all causing 247 00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:29,920 Speaker 1: confusion here. And on top of that, I think you 248 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:33,280 Speaker 1: mentioned in your notes that the bird fluid new strain 249 00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:35,559 Speaker 1: of bird flu is also something that with one of 250 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:38,480 Speaker 1: the geopolitical risks here as well. So it does seem 251 00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:43,360 Speaker 1: as they're being attacked on all sides. The confluence of 252 00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:49,560 Speaker 1: factors um geopolitically, macroeconomically, I have we've never I've never 253 00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:53,360 Speaker 1: experienced obviously before probably not since World War Two have 254 00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 1: we had these kinds of massive factors. The difference now gentlemen, 255 00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:01,559 Speaker 1: is that we are an interglobally a pendant world. We have, 256 00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:04,599 Speaker 1: you know, globally outsourced most of our manufacturing, obviously to 257 00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:07,640 Speaker 1: Asia and America, and we rely on them a lot 258 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:10,800 Speaker 1: to provide us our pharmaceuticals and and and everything that 259 00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:15,520 Speaker 1: we live off of. So when we have a globally, um, 260 00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:17,839 Speaker 1: if we have a geopolitical risk, if we have a 261 00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:20,840 Speaker 1: Ukraine Russia with NATO kind of coming in and no 262 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:23,480 Speaker 1: longer being proxy, but now we're sending tanks between Germany 263 00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:25,480 Speaker 1: and the United States and we're moving. I mean, Joe 264 00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:28,560 Speaker 1: Biden said himself last year that if we send tanks 265 00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:31,360 Speaker 1: to the United sitstens tanks to Russia, are to Ukraine, 266 00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:33,800 Speaker 1: it's World War three. And now that's what we're doing. 267 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:36,840 Speaker 1: So you could have any factor pop off and really 268 00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 1: create additional economic distress. So lots to weigh up there, Rebecca. 269 00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:42,840 Speaker 1: But if we look at this most recent news, the 270 00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:45,960 Speaker 1: CPR report, would you be making changes major changes as 271 00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:49,520 Speaker 1: a result. You know, I I think that it was 272 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:52,920 Speaker 1: exactly what I expected. I expected that it was going 273 00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:55,960 Speaker 1: to be more sticky than the market was stating. You know, 274 00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:58,640 Speaker 1: Larry Summers, I agree with his point on Friday on Bloomberg, 275 00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:01,400 Speaker 1: which was basically saying, we're just not taking it seriously enough. 276 00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:03,640 Speaker 1: The market has really been trying to push the FED 277 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:07,120 Speaker 1: for a faster pivot, and we just don't have the 278 00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:10,280 Speaker 1: ability to do that right now. People have to remember that, 279 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:12,520 Speaker 1: you know, we had a lot of stimulus release since 280 00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:15,000 Speaker 1: two thousand and eight, really low cost of capital, and 281 00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:17,760 Speaker 1: we have really had a lot of results from that, 282 00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:19,760 Speaker 1: and it's not going to be as much as we 283 00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:22,560 Speaker 1: all felt like, okay, here, let's gets back to a 284 00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:26,280 Speaker 1: normal year. We just aren't there with the fundamentals of 285 00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:29,240 Speaker 1: the economy at globally, and so until we get closer 286 00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:31,560 Speaker 1: to that, we're just going to have to bear through this. 287 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,800 Speaker 1: And it's horrible. I'm the first to be like, can 288 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:36,760 Speaker 1: this just be over? Can I pick my sectors and 289 00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:38,480 Speaker 1: can I trying to fully reopen? And can we get 290 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:40,960 Speaker 1: GDP back up from the three percent of business number 291 00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:43,280 Speaker 1: they had last year? We need this for the global world, 292 00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:48,160 Speaker 1: but yet the conditions are not there yet.
