00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:07,680
Speaker 1: Bloomberg Audio Studios, Podcasts, radio News.

2
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:13,840
Speaker 2: This is a breaking news update from Bloomberg instant reaction

3
00:00:14,120 --> 00:00:17,959
Speaker 2: and analysis from our three thousand journalists and analysts around

4
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:18,480
Speaker 2: the world.

5
00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:23,000
Speaker 3: Good morning everyone, Scarlet fo In, Tim Keene and A

6
00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:26,640
Speaker 3: Scarlett who predicted it didn't come in. But there is

7
00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:30,040
Speaker 3: the first print of this preliminary number, and it is

8
00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:32,960
Speaker 3: toward what we heard from doctor Englander. Scarlett. I'm going

9
00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:36,000
Speaker 3: to suggest a negative nine to one one is a

10
00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:39,240
Speaker 3: wow statistic. We begin strong in the special edition of

11
00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:44,479
Speaker 3: Bloomberg Surveillance with Ira Jersey of Bloomberg Intelligence. Ira, I

12
00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:48,159
Speaker 3: guess we see an economic statistic three hundred thousand or

13
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:52,000
Speaker 3: so off the mark. What does it mean for a

14
00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:55,760
Speaker 3: bond market to see our labor so beleaguered?

15
00:00:57,000 --> 00:00:59,400
Speaker 4: Well, I think the You know that these revisions are

16
00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:03,279
Speaker 4: very hard to forecast, I mean by definition, because they

17
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:07,200
Speaker 4: cover such a long period of time, and you know,

18
00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:10,720
Speaker 4: but the fact that we had even slower employment growth

19
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:15,800
Speaker 4: than we thought and had forecasted, clearly the market took

20
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:17,800
Speaker 4: that as bad for the economy, and that's the reason

21
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:20,440
Speaker 4: why you saw bond yields go from up a little

22
00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:22,679
Speaker 4: bit in the front end to flat to maybe a

23
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:26,640
Speaker 4: little bit a little bit lower in the front end. Importantly,

24
00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:29,039
Speaker 4: I think here it just shows that, you know, the

25
00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:31,800
Speaker 4: Federal Reserve has to take this into consideration when they

26
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:34,400
Speaker 4: deliberate next week what to do with interest rates. And

27
00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:37,000
Speaker 4: it just solidifies even more that they're going to cut

28
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,600
Speaker 4: next week. And I suspect that it might actually give

29
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:42,360
Speaker 4: some of the people are on the fence about the

30
00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:45,040
Speaker 4: timing of cuts to not only cut in September, but

31
00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:48,480
Speaker 4: also do a string of cuts and cut again in October, December,

32
00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 4: and January as well.

33
00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:52,040
Speaker 1: To your point about how it's very difficult to forecast this.

34
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:55,800
Speaker 1: In a survey of economists that Bloomberg has compiled, the

35
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:59,360
Speaker 1: lowest estimate for this revision was nine hundred thousand, and

36
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:02,560
Speaker 1: the actual number reported was nine hundred and eleven thousand

37
00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:05,520
Speaker 1: reduction in the number of jobs over the twelve months

38
00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:09,400
Speaker 1: to March twenty twenty five. So we had expected a

39
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:12,640
Speaker 1: negative revision, perhaps not this sizeable. How much of this

40
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:16,079
Speaker 1: was totally baked in to the point where a fifty

41
00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:20,000
Speaker 1: basis point raycut is something that is now becoming more

42
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:21,720
Speaker 1: of the default scenario.

43
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:25,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, you know, I don't think that the Fed's

44
00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:28,240
Speaker 4: going to go fifty, and the market's not fully priced

45
00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:30,280
Speaker 4: for that, not even fifty percent price for a fifty

46
00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:33,520
Speaker 4: basis point raycut. At least it wasn't when I walked

47
00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:35,080
Speaker 4: in here. I haven't checked in the last two minutes,

48
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:37,600
Speaker 4: but I doubt that it's really changed. And one of

49
00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:39,960
Speaker 4: the big reasons for that is there still is this

50
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:43,960
Speaker 4: inflation overhang, right, the fear about tariffs may be still

51
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 4: adding to some inflation. We haven't seen all of it.

52
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:46,720
Speaker 1: You've heard a.

53
00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:50,480
Speaker 4: Lot of Fed speakers talk about the net effect of

54
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:53,079
Speaker 4: tariffs hasn't yet been seen. So I think the Federal

55
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:55,960
Speaker 4: Reserve wants to be cautious, right, and the idea that

56
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,320
Speaker 4: they don't have to go at every meeting. I think

57
00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:00,960
Speaker 4: that's what this takes off the table that unless you

58
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:05,160
Speaker 4: see a you know, insanely low CPI print, and you know,

59
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:10,000
Speaker 4: tomorrow's PPI winds up being very low as well, at

60
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 4: least below consensus, then the Federal Reserve probably just does

61
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:16,880
Speaker 4: their twenty five. Then they guide, right, and it's that

62
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,800
Speaker 4: guidance I think that will ultimately move the bond market

63
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:23,359
Speaker 4: and does that guide and say, hey, we're going to

64
00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:25,799
Speaker 4: cut you know, one hundred and fifty hundred and twenty

65
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:29,359
Speaker 4: five fifty basis points. Maybe that's where the updated dot

66
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:31,800
Speaker 4: plots going to matter, as well as their general summary

67
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:32,840
Speaker 4: of economic projection.

68
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:36,119
Speaker 1: In terms of the reaction in markets, I mentioned how

69
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:38,680
Speaker 1: the tier yield the tenure yield went negative briefly, but

70
00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:40,600
Speaker 1: they're back up again, and we're now seeing the two

71
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:43,440
Speaker 1: year yield higher by one point eight basis points, tenure

72
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:46,320
Speaker 1: yield four point zero six percent up higher by two

73
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:49,280
Speaker 1: point two basis points. What do you see in terms

74
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:52,080
Speaker 1: of the direction of yields Because a lot of people

75
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:55,560
Speaker 1: were saying that this revision would be would unlock the

76
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:57,760
Speaker 1: trajectory for yields for the rest of the year.

77
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:00,680
Speaker 2: Was that asking too much imports on it? Yeah?

78
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:04,360
Speaker 4: I think so, I don't see that. You know, ultimately,

79
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 4: the market's trying to be forward looking, right, and these

80
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,760
Speaker 4: these are revisions to pass data not and don't necessarily

81
00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:13,080
Speaker 4: reflect how the economy is going to do over the

82
00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:16,400
Speaker 4: next three to twelve months, right, And and that's but

83
00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:18,320
Speaker 4: but it does show the trend, and I think that

84
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:21,360
Speaker 4: that's important, and that trend maybe is a little bit

85
00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:24,560
Speaker 4: more severe than we thought. So that's where I think

86
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 4: a twenty five basis point move is kind of your

87
00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:30,440
Speaker 4: base case. And then and then you know how what's

88
00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:33,760
Speaker 4: the follow on from that? Uh, that base case for

89
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:35,919
Speaker 4: the long end of the curve. And you know, I

90
00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:38,080
Speaker 4: think that we are a little bit overbought. You know,

91
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:41,400
Speaker 4: we we have rallied very far, very quickly, so it

92
00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:43,680
Speaker 4: wouldn't surprise me if we can solidate it a little

93
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:46,280
Speaker 4: bit here. I think, Tom, you asked if we were

94
00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:48,360
Speaker 4: going to see sub four percent. Yeah, you know, we've

95
00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:51,160
Speaker 4: had We've had this since February. We've had our forecast

96
00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:53,640
Speaker 4: for year end has been three point ninety five percent

97
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:56,960
Speaker 4: or thereabouts on the ten year field. So we're effectively there.

98
00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 3: Special edition and extended edition, I should say, a bloom

99
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 3: Surveillance Scarlett Foo and Paul Sweeney and Bloomberg Intelligence will

100
00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:06,600
Speaker 3: pick that up at near a quarter after the hour,

101
00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:08,920
Speaker 3: right now, Scarlet fuh in time key for you and

102
00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:14,080
Speaker 3: without commercial interruption across the nation efforting a number of

103
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:17,200
Speaker 3: voices here will stay with Ira Jersey and move on

104
00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:19,880
Speaker 3: to other conversations. In a moment, I'm going to ask

105
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,960
Speaker 3: you and all our guests this question. Is a simplistic

106
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:25,640
Speaker 3: way to look at this is to take nine to

107
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:30,080
Speaker 3: eleven and divide up by twelve, and we take seventy

108
00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:35,360
Speaker 3: six thousand jobs off non farm payrolls looking back twelve months.

109
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:39,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's basically what you do. I mean, obviously it's

110
00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:41,920
Speaker 4: not going to be as linear as that, but sure, effectively,

111
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:45,120
Speaker 4: what you're saying is seventy five thousand dollars seventy five

112
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:50,400
Speaker 4: thousand less jobs per month were created, and that doesn't

113
00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 4: paint a rosy picture for the economy at the moment. So,

114
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:56,919
Speaker 4: you know, now some people are suggesting that perhaps this

115
00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,440
Speaker 4: is the low and that will wind up seeing some hiring.

116
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:02,000
Speaker 4: Not as convinced of that. When you look at you know,

117
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,760
Speaker 4: the NFIB survey and a lot of the other sentiment

118
00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 4: surveys around the corporate world, it does seem that people

119
00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:11,400
Speaker 4: are kind of pausing their hiring plans. So if you,

120
00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:13,360
Speaker 4: you know, if no one's being hired and you have

121
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:17,200
Speaker 4: still have layoffs, then the hurdle to get positive payroll

122
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:18,839
Speaker 4: growth is that's even that much higher.

123
00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:21,480
Speaker 3: Ira, Thank you so much, Ira Jersey with Bloomberg Intelligence.

124
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:24,080
Speaker 3: I stopped by Michael McKee's desk this morning. I had

125
00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:26,800
Speaker 3: to fight through his people got through, and I said

126
00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:30,839
Speaker 3: to him, is there a whisper number on preliminary benchmark

127
00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:34,160
Speaker 3: payroll revision joining us. Now, Michael McKee, you said there

128
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:37,760
Speaker 3: was no whisper number. There's no whisper I'm surprised by

129
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:40,200
Speaker 3: negative nine to eleven. That's a lot of jobs.

130
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:44,840
Speaker 5: I think we're surprised by the amount, but the fact

131
00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:47,559
Speaker 5: that it was going to be a big number wasn't

132
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:51,320
Speaker 5: a surprise to most people. The range in the Bloomberg

133
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:54,520
Speaker 5: survey was from two hundred thousand to nine hundred thousand,

134
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:57,080
Speaker 5: and there were people who were even suggesting a million,

135
00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:00,400
Speaker 5: and so that's not a surprise. But remember what you

136
00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:02,799
Speaker 5: have to do is take this go back to March.

137
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:05,719
Speaker 5: One hundred fifty nine million, two hundred and fifty thousand

138
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:09,279
Speaker 5: jobs were what the BLS had counted on payrolls as

139
00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:12,440
Speaker 5: of March of this year. Now you subtract nine hundred

140
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:15,960
Speaker 5: and eleven thousand from that in March, and that's where

141
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,800
Speaker 5: you are. So this is really backward looking data. It's

142
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:22,880
Speaker 5: it's a way to update the data with actual data

143
00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:26,640
Speaker 5: rather than a survey. And it does show that the

144
00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:29,200
Speaker 5: economy was weaker than we thought, but it doesn't have

145
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:31,040
Speaker 5: a lot of implications going forward.

146
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:33,520
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm going to ask a really obvious question. For

147
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:35,960
Speaker 1: people who don't watch or listen.

148
00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:39,040
Speaker 2: Watching, I'm competing with you on that.

149
00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:42,800
Speaker 1: But for folks who don't monitor every single job support

150
00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:46,120
Speaker 1: or every weekly jobless claims, people like that, well maybe

151
00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:48,320
Speaker 1: those who don't listen to Bloomberg Radio, but you know,

152
00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:51,640
Speaker 1: for my mother who might tune in, how come the

153
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:53,760
Speaker 1: government can't get it right the first time around? Why

154
00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:56,559
Speaker 1: would there be such a large revision, negative nine hundred

155
00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:59,040
Speaker 1: eleven thousand jobs over a twelve month period.

156
00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:02,240
Speaker 5: Well, the sign of the revision is maybe a bit

157
00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:05,120
Speaker 5: of a surprise, but the fact that they are revised,

158
00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:07,800
Speaker 5: that happens every year, and it's hundreds of thousands in

159
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:11,400
Speaker 5: either direction. Because what the BLS does is take a

160
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:15,119
Speaker 5: survey every year or every month. They survey one hundred

161
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:18,320
Speaker 5: and sixty one thousand establishments around the country, which is

162
00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:22,080
Speaker 5: about they say they account for about thirty three percent

163
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:25,680
Speaker 5: of all payrolls temple. And this is the once a

164
00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:30,640
Speaker 5: year data that they use when they get it in

165
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:35,240
Speaker 5: unemployment insurance taxes paid by companies, so they can see

166
00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:39,040
Speaker 5: how many people actually are on payrolls, and that is

167
00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:42,360
Speaker 5: about ninety eight percent of all jobs. So this is

168
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:44,520
Speaker 5: a much more accurate thing, but the numbers don't come

169
00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:48,080
Speaker 5: out at the same time. The surveys the best they

170
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:49,600
Speaker 5: can do. In the meantime, NERD.

171
00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:52,760
Speaker 3: Fast and Extended edition of Bloomberg Surveillant Scarlett Foh and

172
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:55,560
Speaker 3: time Key with you. Bloomberg Intelligence coming up here in

173
00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:58,600
Speaker 3: eight or nine. I mean, it's Stephanie. We're authentic. We'll

174
00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:01,000
Speaker 3: get to her in a moment. Going to ask Stephanie

175
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:02,960
Speaker 3: this question because that would be rude, So I'll ask

176
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:05,520
Speaker 3: you the rude of question. The President is going to

177
00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:09,000
Speaker 3: respond to this, Does he say these were Biden jobs

178
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:09,960
Speaker 3: that were lost?

179
00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:14,160
Speaker 5: Well, one would assume politically that would be the move

180
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:18,600
Speaker 5: for him, but there has been some sort of feeling

181
00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:20,559
Speaker 5: that out there that what he's going to do is

182
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:23,400
Speaker 5: use this to attack BLS because he's already started that

183
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:26,400
Speaker 5: and say how could you be that wrong? And we

184
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:29,560
Speaker 5: need to basically fire y'all and start over again or

185
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:32,240
Speaker 5: something like that. So we're waiting to see how he responds,

186
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:34,199
Speaker 5: but don't know yet.

187
00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:37,120
Speaker 3: Malcael McKee, thank if someone stoving all of our economic

188
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:42,560
Speaker 3: coverage truly knowledgeable on these arcane economic moments joining us

189
00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:44,600
Speaker 3: now Stephanie Roth kind enough to be with us in

190
00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:49,200
Speaker 3: the last forty eight hours, chief economist at Wolf Researched. Stephanie,

191
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:52,400
Speaker 3: I guess it's a surprise to a worser number from

192
00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:57,240
Speaker 3: this preliminary statistic to the actual statistic. Can there be

193
00:09:57,320 --> 00:09:58,000
Speaker 3: more mystery?

194
00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:01,280
Speaker 6: Yeah? I mean the thing is last year there was

195
00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:05,800
Speaker 6: a bigger initial preliminary than the actual, so eighteen versus

196
00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:08,280
Speaker 6: the actual of five to eighty nine. So I think

197
00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:11,160
Speaker 6: markets are just recognizing that we knew that there was

198
00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:12,960
Speaker 6: going to be a large revision and it might not

199
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:16,080
Speaker 6: be ultimately as large when we get the actual in

200
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:17,240
Speaker 6: early twenty twenty six.

201
00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:20,720
Speaker 1: Stephanie, what would you be listening for, watching for when

202
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:23,680
Speaker 1: the president does eventually respond. As we've been noting, the

203
00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:26,680
Speaker 1: period covers the end of the Biden administration and the

204
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,800
Speaker 1: very beginning of the Trump administration, and the President will

205
00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:33,320
Speaker 1: be quick to say that it is all Joe Biden's fault.

206
00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:35,360
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, I think that's probably right, and perhaps,

207
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:37,839
Speaker 6: as Mike McKee was saying earlier, it's perhaps more of

208
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:41,000
Speaker 6: just an attack on BLS and not getting the numbers right. Granted,

209
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:43,840
Speaker 6: this is a really difficult thing to estimate. In real

210
00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:47,720
Speaker 6: time and BLS does their best buy having a survey

211
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,119
Speaker 6: that doesn't represent the full sample. So once they incorporate

212
00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:53,560
Speaker 6: all the data from the unemployment insurance records, then they

213
00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:56,480
Speaker 6: can get the full picture. And it's not always exactly right,

214
00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:58,920
Speaker 6: but what we have seen is the preliminary is larger,

215
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:02,319
Speaker 6: shows a large revision in recent years in the actual.

216
00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:05,480
Speaker 3: Sephonie wrongs with us and we will continue with ms

217
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:10,400
Speaker 3: Roth of Wolf Research News. Intrudes oil is surged up

218
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:13,600
Speaker 3: one dollar, up one point five percent on Brent crude,

219
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:17,000
Speaker 3: sixty six point five eight on Brent crude gold elevated

220
00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:21,320
Speaker 3: fifteen dollars. Our top Live team, thank you Paul Wallace

221
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:25,680
Speaker 3: for your leadership in the Middle East. Israel strike and cutter.

222
00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:29,960
Speaker 3: This attack and cutter is unprecedented. It's difficult to overstate

223
00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:33,280
Speaker 3: how angry it could make the leadership in Doha as

224
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:36,800
Speaker 3: well as other Gulf states such as Saudi Arabia and

225
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:39,240
Speaker 3: the UAE. And to go over to the headlines, this

226
00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:43,360
Speaker 3: is just breaking now in terms of actual headlines and

227
00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:48,360
Speaker 3: not speculation. And the headline is simply Israel targets Amas

228
00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:52,440
Speaker 3: leadership in strikes on Katari capital. That from our Paul

229
00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:57,960
Speaker 3: Wallace and Alisa Odenheimer as well. Scarlett Foo was Stephanie Roth.

230
00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:01,439
Speaker 2: So let's follow up on that headline.

231
00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:05,160
Speaker 1: With oil prices now rising and you see WTI, for instance,

232
00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:06,880
Speaker 1: up one and a half percent, Brent crued up one

233
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:09,760
Speaker 1: and a half percent as well, we're talking about approaching

234
00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:12,600
Speaker 1: a high sixty dollars range at some point.

235
00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:15,160
Speaker 2: What does that mean for the inflation picture, Stephanie.

236
00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:18,240
Speaker 1: We get CPI and PPI this week and all focus

237
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:21,200
Speaker 1: will be on that. But down the road, if this

238
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:24,800
Speaker 1: war has revived and this becomes a constant pressure point,

239
00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:27,720
Speaker 1: how are you folding that into your analysis of inflation?

240
00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:30,679
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean there does continue to be more inflation

241
00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:34,640
Speaker 6: pressures than generally expected. So oil prices tend to look

242
00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:36,320
Speaker 6: at a little bit differently, and that's why the said

243
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:39,560
Speaker 6: looks at core, which excludes good and energy. But when

244
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:42,520
Speaker 6: we're thinking about the broadways inflation picture, we are worried

245
00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:44,079
Speaker 6: that inflation pressures are going to pick up in the

246
00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:47,320
Speaker 6: next couple months because by our estimates, we only we

247
00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:49,679
Speaker 6: see about thirty five to forty percent of the tear

248
00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:51,719
Speaker 6: of pastor has already happened, in which case a lot

249
00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:53,360
Speaker 6: of it is ahead of US, and it might just

250
00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:55,480
Speaker 6: look like a number of prints where core inflation is

251
00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:58,520
Speaker 6: running in AO point three towo point three five percent range,

252
00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:01,360
Speaker 6: which just poses a challenge. So the energy pricesdent and

253
00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:03,360
Speaker 6: of itself means it's a little bit less important, but

254
00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:05,959
Speaker 6: the broad inflation picture is a bit challenge in the

255
00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:06,679
Speaker 6: next couple of months.

256
00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:08,040
Speaker 3: Stephanie, thank you so much.
