1 00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:07,240 Speaker 1: Bloomberg Audio Studios, podcasts, radio news. 2 00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:13,240 Speaker 2: He is absolutely unique as a president, president, former president, governor, 3 00:00:13,960 --> 00:00:17,360 Speaker 2: vice chairman and chairman of the FED, and that no 4 00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:21,079 Speaker 2: one in the multiple years I've been covering it synthesized 5 00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:25,959 Speaker 2: Wall Street business and economics like Robert Kaplan. He was 6 00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:29,440 Speaker 2: at the Dallas FED with a real sense of the 7 00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:33,519 Speaker 2: border political economics, the heritage of the Dallas Fed around 8 00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:37,199 Speaker 2: Robert McTeer and the Georgia School, their research capabilities, and 9 00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:39,559 Speaker 2: were thrilled he could join us this morning for an 10 00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:44,280 Speaker 2: extended conversation. It's been way too long, Robert. Let me 11 00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:47,640 Speaker 2: cut to the chase. The definitive series, which Jerome Powell 12 00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:53,120 Speaker 2: speaks of. Is the Dallas trim mean? You are expert 13 00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:56,400 Speaker 2: on that with your research staff. Does the Dallas trim 14 00:00:56,440 --> 00:01:00,240 Speaker 2: mean for Robert Kaplan? Does it indicate a vector of 15 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:04,360 Speaker 2: disinflation or a new worry back to the time of 16 00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:07,240 Speaker 2: say Wayne Angel and a higher inflation rate. 17 00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:13,640 Speaker 3: It probably suggests inflation is a new word sticky, meaning 18 00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:15,920 Speaker 3: it's kind of going sideways. 19 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,720 Speaker 4: And we're not making improvement. 20 00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 3: And I would guess that if prices edge up a 21 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:29,759 Speaker 3: little bit, it's going to be more supply side issues 22 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:32,360 Speaker 3: from here than demand side issues. 23 00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:36,720 Speaker 2: What I'm looking at, Robert Kaplan, is the ambiguity, the swirl, 24 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:40,760 Speaker 2: if you will, of American economics with our politics. Is 25 00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:44,480 Speaker 2: the sum total of what our listeners and viewers understand 26 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 2: on this Friday. Is it towards a depressed real GDP 27 00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 2: because of policy uncertainty. 28 00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:58,240 Speaker 4: Yeah. So there are five big structural changes going on. 29 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:03,560 Speaker 3: That's a very unusual and just tick off. We're restructuring 30 00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 3: the way we do fiscal spending and it's going to 31 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:08,240 Speaker 3: have some jarring effect, but we're going to have less 32 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:12,160 Speaker 3: fiscal spending. If they succeed, that would tend to lower growth. 33 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 3: We're going to do a regulatory review in every industry 34 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:19,359 Speaker 3: to try to produce more productivity growth That actually might 35 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:24,519 Speaker 3: be helpful. There's going to be an effort to control 36 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:29,640 Speaker 3: the workforce. Obviously, no more people coming in across the 37 00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 3: border entering the workforce, and we're going to deport That 38 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:36,840 Speaker 3: tends to lower growth unless we have an effort to 39 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:41,040 Speaker 3: revitalize legal immigration. And then we're going to try to 40 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 3: restructure the energy ecosystem in this country to lower costs. 41 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:48,280 Speaker 4: That's probably helpful. And then the last thing is. 42 00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 3: The tariffs, and the tariffs have a price effect, but 43 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:55,799 Speaker 3: I would guess these terraffs and the uncertainty with them 44 00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 3: on margin lower growth. 45 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:00,240 Speaker 4: So you've got a bunch of. 46 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 3: Cross currents, and I would guess the net of it 47 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,880 Speaker 3: all is I would guess, yeah, growth is probably slowing 48 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 3: a little bit right now, and the uncertainty as well 49 00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:13,280 Speaker 3: as when you cut government spending and you reduce workforce 50 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:17,600 Speaker 3: growth or you reduce the growth of it, you know, 51 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:22,080 Speaker 3: you limit you limit GDP growth. The effort is I 52 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:25,640 Speaker 3: don't know if that's that concerning, and that I think 53 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 3: the effort of this administration is to try to create 54 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 3: more organic, more private sector growth, less government led growth, 55 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 3: so quote unquote healthier growth, but top line growth probably 56 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 3: is going to be somewhat weaker, I would guess, so. 57 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:43,360 Speaker 1: Robert, giving that backdrop in the five big structural changes 58 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 1: that you just outlined, if I'm the Federal Reserve, do 59 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 1: I just sit on the sidelines and kind of let 60 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:50,920 Speaker 1: it all play out because the market is kind of 61 00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:53,080 Speaker 1: suggesting that the Fed's not going to do a lot 62 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 1: this year. 63 00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:56,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I think the right thing. 64 00:03:56,240 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, the FED is quietly drifting state left, and that's Okay. 65 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 3: The center stage is structural changes, executive branch changes away 66 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 3: from the FED, and in a period like this, I 67 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:16,520 Speaker 3: think the wisest thing the FED could do, yes is 68 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 3: be comfortable standing pat be careful about what they say, 69 00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 3: because I think commenting too definitively on how these structural 70 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 3: changes are going to play out, it's too early to 71 00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:33,000 Speaker 3: do it. Tariffs is a good example. We don't need 72 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:35,800 Speaker 3: to know what the tariffs are going to be. And 73 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:37,960 Speaker 3: so yeah, I think the Fed will do less. I 74 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:41,479 Speaker 3: think that's fine, and I think Jay Palell's communication on 75 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:44,280 Speaker 3: that has been good recently, where he's made clear we're 76 00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:45,360 Speaker 3: in no hurry. 77 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:47,320 Speaker 4: And people should be prepared. 78 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 3: Their focus should be more on what's going on the 79 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:51,480 Speaker 3: executive branch. 80 00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:53,839 Speaker 4: And second comment I'd make, if. 81 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:57,080 Speaker 3: There's a rate I'm focused on, I'm much more focused 82 00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 3: on the ten year treasury rate than i am the 83 00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:00,599 Speaker 3: Fed funds rate. 84 00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:04,760 Speaker 1: Interesting. So, Robert, as we sit back here and we 85 00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 1: think about the economic backdrop. 86 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:10,560 Speaker 4: Here, how do you view the consumer right here? 87 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 1: I mean, we've heard about and talked about and noticed 88 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:16,919 Speaker 1: in the data this K shaped economy. 89 00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 4: How do you think about the consumer. There's two big groups. 90 00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:26,960 Speaker 3: It's confusing because there's two big groups, probably unlike maybe 91 00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 3: anything I've seen in my career. There's one group that's 92 00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 3: sixty five that's rough numbers, sixty five seventy million workers 93 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:39,720 Speaker 3: that make fifty five grand a year or less, and 94 00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 3: they are struggling to make ends meet. They've lost at 95 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:45,839 Speaker 3: least twenty five percent purchasing power. They don't tend to 96 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 3: own financial assets. That group is spending, but they're watching 97 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:55,599 Speaker 3: every dollar they're going to McDonald's and they're agonizing over 98 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:59,920 Speaker 3: even McDonald's trading down. That's sixty five to seventy million 99 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:05,239 Speaker 3: workers and consumers. There's another sixty five to seventy million 100 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:08,479 Speaker 3: consumers fifty five and older, own their home, have a 101 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 3: fixed rate mortgage, half financial assets, and this recent period 102 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:17,000 Speaker 3: has been pretty good. Yes, there's infliction, but their financial 103 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:19,359 Speaker 3: appreciation their financial. 104 00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:20,120 Speaker 4: Assets is offset it. 105 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:22,919 Speaker 3: And because their mortgage is fixed, they're really not that 106 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 3: sensitive to higher rates, and they are spending much more aggressive, 107 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:31,760 Speaker 3: I guess, aggressively on services and other products. And that's 108 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:34,600 Speaker 3: why when you see corporate earnings reports, it's confusing. 109 00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:36,679 Speaker 4: Which of these two groups are you serving. 110 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:40,919 Speaker 3: If you're serving that first group, you're likely seeing a 111 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:44,359 Speaker 3: much more challenging business. If you're serving the second group, 112 00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:46,240 Speaker 3: you know, business looks better to you. 113 00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 2: Robert Kaplan with us, of course, the vice chairman of 114 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:52,839 Speaker 2: Golden Sachs, with far More's relationship with the Dallas Fed, 115 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 2: all sorts of academics through the year, his Harvard. We're 116 00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 2: thrill these with us, and we said good morning to 117 00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 2: you on YouTube in your home, at your office, all 118 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 2: of gold and Sacks tuned in on YouTube. I mean, 119 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 2: you know that's happening right now. Robert Capplin I got 120 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:09,360 Speaker 2: in the New Foreign Affairs last night. It's a very 121 00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 2: strong issue, folks in these tumultuous times. Marianna Mazakata, who 122 00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:16,640 Speaker 2: Robert Kaplan is not on the same page with the 123 00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:23,960 Speaker 2: esteemed left economist, huge economic history student Marianna Mazacato with 124 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:25,400 Speaker 2: a wonderful essay. 125 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 4: Of where we need to go. 126 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 2: And Robert Caplan. I'm sure you don't agree with all 127 00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:32,160 Speaker 2: that Professor Mazacata wrote up in the New Foreign Affairs. 128 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 2: But the one thing she talked about, you're the most 129 00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 2: qualified person I know is the financialization that we've seen 130 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 2: in the last ten, twenty, even thirty years, even before 131 00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:51,400 Speaker 2: the Great financial crisis. How do you explain the financialization 132 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:55,440 Speaker 2: of the American culture and the winners you just described 133 00:07:55,920 --> 00:08:00,120 Speaker 2: in the millions of losers out there that are a reality. 134 00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 3: Well, so I'll put it. I'll put it this way. 135 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:07,880 Speaker 3: And you've heard me talk about this before. I listen, 136 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 3: I work on an a firm now, and we run 137 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:14,400 Speaker 3: a business, and I've run other businesses. Human capital is 138 00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 3: the most important asset you have. And that's true for 139 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:19,720 Speaker 3: the United States, it's true for the state of Texas 140 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:26,680 Speaker 3: and so on. And early childhood literacy, secondary education, skills, training, 141 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:32,400 Speaker 3: a digital divide, allowing people to be more productive that 142 00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:36,960 Speaker 3: is key to a growing middle class in building the economy. 143 00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 3: And what we're seeing a little bit in the last 144 00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:46,200 Speaker 3: number of years is a divergence financially between that I 145 00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:46,880 Speaker 3: just mentioned. 146 00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:49,920 Speaker 4: Those two groups working people. 147 00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:54,640 Speaker 3: That don't take government money have probably been employed, done 148 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:57,959 Speaker 3: everything right their whole career, but they don't have a 149 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:01,199 Speaker 3: lot of savings. They may not own their home, and 150 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 3: they're reading in the newspaper about another group of people 151 00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 3: out there who are rising by bounds in terms of 152 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:15,880 Speaker 3: their financial wealth and financial assets. And it seems like 153 00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:20,360 Speaker 3: capitalism isn't quite working for them, and I think education 154 00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:25,000 Speaker 3: is one of the vehicles to try to address this. 155 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:30,320 Speaker 3: But one of the issues with decelerating workforce growth is 156 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 3: education tends to be paid for at the state level 157 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:37,199 Speaker 3: and city level. If you're a growing city or state, 158 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:42,160 Speaker 3: you got the money to spend on getting affordable childcare, 159 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:44,520 Speaker 3: full day versus half day, pre K. 160 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:46,440 Speaker 4: All these critical things. 161 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:49,480 Speaker 3: But if you're in a state which is probably forty 162 00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:52,360 Speaker 3: plus states whose populations are flat. 163 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:54,040 Speaker 4: To down, you may not have the money. 164 00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:58,160 Speaker 3: And then philanthropy, which I'm actively involved in, can help 165 00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:02,240 Speaker 3: pick up the slack. But but I think we should be 166 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:05,680 Speaker 3: focusing more on our human capital and a little less 167 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:07,520 Speaker 3: on financial er and Paul. 168 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:10,600 Speaker 2: That's the common ground between Mazocato and Kaplin, no question 169 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:13,480 Speaker 2: about that. The individual education effort. 170 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 1: Robert, I know in your role as vice chairman of 171 00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:19,800 Speaker 1: Goldman Sachs, who speak to CEOs around the world, what 172 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:23,080 Speaker 1: is their view of I don't know, the ability to 173 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 1: take risk to maybe think about M and A as 174 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:30,280 Speaker 1: a growth scenario. Where are they in terms of how 175 00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:32,840 Speaker 1: they feel about their business and their ability to take 176 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:34,280 Speaker 1: risk over the next couple of years. 177 00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:39,959 Speaker 3: Okay, So on the positive side, I think the prospect 178 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:45,280 Speaker 3: of a more balanced regulatory environment, more cost benefit analysis, 179 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:49,360 Speaker 3: more in their words, more sensible regulation. They're they're okay 180 00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:52,679 Speaker 3: with tough regulation, but there has to be a rationale 181 00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:56,560 Speaker 3: for it. I think they're excited about that. On the 182 00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:59,720 Speaker 3: other hand, they're dealing with another They're dealing with the 183 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:05,319 Speaker 3: Trey uncertainty. And if you're going to domicile more manufacturing, 184 00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:08,719 Speaker 3: for example in the United States, you really need the 185 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:12,960 Speaker 3: corridor of Mexico and Canada for integrated supply. 186 00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 4: Chains and logistics. 187 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 3: And when they see threat of tariffs on for example, Mexico, 188 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:23,280 Speaker 3: which they hope doesn't happen, which could undermine logistics and 189 00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:26,080 Speaker 3: supply chains, it gives them pause and makes them want 190 00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:30,040 Speaker 3: to just slow down a little bit and be more careful. 191 00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:34,199 Speaker 3: And the other big thing is AI and technology. Now 192 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:37,880 Speaker 3: we've had technology innovation for years, but if you're a 193 00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:40,960 Speaker 3: CEO right now, you've got to spend on AI in 194 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:44,959 Speaker 3: your business. You're not sure which use cases will work 195 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:48,040 Speaker 3: and which won't, but you got to do it. And 196 00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:50,240 Speaker 3: so I think you're going to see though a lot 197 00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:54,679 Speaker 3: of merger activity by companies who feel that, boy, if 198 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:57,360 Speaker 3: we're going to take scheer in the years ahead. If 199 00:11:57,360 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 3: we're going to grow in the years ahead, we're more 200 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:02,080 Speaker 3: likely to have to take share, and we're gonna have 201 00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:05,559 Speaker 3: size and scale, and the ability to ford AI investment 202 00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:08,600 Speaker 3: is more important than its ever and I think you're 203 00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:11,360 Speaker 3: going to see a desire for many companies bigger to 204 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:12,280 Speaker 3: try to deal with that. 205 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 2: I gotta squeeze this in too important. There seems to 206 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:17,800 Speaker 2: be another threat happens every two, three, five years. It's 207 00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:22,640 Speaker 2: not specific to mister Trump on FED independence. How does 208 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:27,679 Speaker 2: the institution of the Fed, mister Kaplan protect itself and 209 00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:32,559 Speaker 2: stay independent versus the McChesney Martin challenges decades ago. 210 00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:33,680 Speaker 4: Yeah. 211 00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:37,400 Speaker 3: So the thing that's always challenging at the FED, and 212 00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:42,160 Speaker 3: this isn't new, is regulatory supervisory policy at the FED 213 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:47,920 Speaker 3: is not politically independent and has not been independent. The 214 00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:53,319 Speaker 3: tilt of it changes whether it's Obama to Trump, then 215 00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:56,920 Speaker 3: back to Biden, now back to Trump. And that you'll 216 00:12:56,960 --> 00:13:00,640 Speaker 3: see on setting the FED funds rate though, and the 217 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:03,400 Speaker 3: stance of monetary policy. I think it's critical of this 218 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:08,000 Speaker 3: country that stay political independent. Now the president can jawbone 219 00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:12,720 Speaker 3: and pressure and that's not new. May be more intense 220 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:15,080 Speaker 3: right now, and the FED will do its job and 221 00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 3: should to try to extent. They can't ignore that make 222 00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:24,320 Speaker 3: decisions only. The biggest threat to the FED, I actually 223 00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:27,720 Speaker 3: think sometimes is not from outside. Then you have to 224 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:31,960 Speaker 3: be careful as a governor or a president. Don't try 225 00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:35,839 Speaker 3: to say things publicly you think might go over better, 226 00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:39,000 Speaker 3: or worry about the pressure. Just do what you think 227 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:42,679 Speaker 3: is right. And as long as they manage themselves, I 228 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:44,960 Speaker 3: think they'll go through this in an independent way. 229 00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:47,400 Speaker 2: Out of time, Robert Kaplin, next time you're on, We're 230 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:49,560 Speaker 2: doing a complete hour on do. 231 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:50,480 Speaker 4: We need the docks? 232 00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:54,200 Speaker 2: Robert Kaplan of the Dallas Fed, always in forever and 233 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:57,840 Speaker 2: now vice chairman of his Goldman Sachs
