Speaker 1: at Bloomberg dot com. We'll trade tensions between the U

8
00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:26,840
Speaker 1: S and China continue to escalate. The U S Commerce

9
00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:30,800
Speaker 1: Department announside it has placed China's largest telecom equipment company

10
00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:34,440
Speaker 1: on the Entity List, which denies US suppliers from selling

11
00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:37,120
Speaker 1: to Whahwei without a license. To get a sense of

12
00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:39,239
Speaker 1: what this does mean, not just for Whahwei, but for

13
00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:42,120
Speaker 1: the trade discussion between the US and China, we go

14
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:46,239
Speaker 1: to Meredith Sumter, Meredith's head of research and strategy and

15
00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:49,760
Speaker 1: operations for the Eurasia Group, joining us in Washington, d C. Meredith,

16
00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:52,120
Speaker 1: thank you so much for joining us. Do you think

17
00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:55,400
Speaker 1: this band, which seems to be pretty serious, will actually

18
00:00:55,440 --> 00:01:00,240
Speaker 1: be activated? That's the critical question here, Paul, and what

19
00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:02,920
Speaker 1: we're gonna be watching for moving forward is whether or

20
00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:06,960
Speaker 1: not the US enforces a blanket VAN or whether it

21
00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:12,840
Speaker 1: chooses to instead issue licenses to most US in foreign suppliers. Uh.

22
00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:16,680
Speaker 1: The actual notice did come forth and say that a

23
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:19,760
Speaker 1: license would be required and issued by the b I S,

24
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:23,560
Speaker 1: but it all comes down to implementation from here. So, Meredith,

25
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:27,480
Speaker 1: I'm struggling to understand the market reaction today because you

26
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,040
Speaker 1: are seeing the NASDAK up one point three percent. There

27
00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:32,320
Speaker 1: seems to be a very risk on feel But it

28
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:35,920
Speaker 1: seems like President Trump's issues with some of these big

29
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:39,800
Speaker 1: technology companies out of China, this is a major escalation.

30
00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:43,639
Speaker 1: Why is it not being viewed that way? I couldn't

31
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:45,960
Speaker 1: agree more, Lisa, and in fact this morning. So so

32
00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:48,760
Speaker 1: the notice came out last night, and at your AGEA group,

33
00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:51,280
Speaker 1: we've been working overnight to pull together own thoughts and

34
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:54,400
Speaker 1: views as to how grave this really is not just

35
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:58,520
Speaker 1: for the US relationship with China more broadly on technology

36
00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:01,600
Speaker 1: issues and on Huawei and five G, but also for

37
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:07,760
Speaker 1: the trade negotiations that are ongoing. Even before last night's notice, Lisa,

38
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:11,560
Speaker 1: we had drawn down our call of prospects for US

39
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:14,320
Speaker 1: China trade deal by the G twenty. Of course, this

40
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:17,320
Speaker 1: is when Presidents Trump and she are set to meet.

41
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:21,000
Speaker 1: We dropped our call from a six probability to just

42
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:24,919
Speaker 1: a probability. Now you add on top of this the

43
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:28,079
Speaker 1: latest solvo against Kahwei, and we find ourselves in a

44
00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:32,959
Speaker 1: very serious situation. Indeed, Yeah, it's interesting, Meredith that that's

45
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:36,600
Speaker 1: a significant reduction um. And again I would historically that

46
00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:38,440
Speaker 1: would have had a very negative impact on the market,

47
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:40,720
Speaker 1: but as Lisa noted, the market seem to be shrugging

48
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:44,280
Speaker 1: it off. I wonder what the impact will be on

49
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:47,720
Speaker 1: China as it thinks about how it wants to react.

50
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,400
Speaker 1: How do you think China will react to something like this.

51
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:55,799
Speaker 1: We need to watch closely China's moves over the next

52
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:58,120
Speaker 1: day or two. It's been very quiet out of Beijing,

53
00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:00,840
Speaker 1: and I think probably this is the sort of shock

54
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:05,320
Speaker 1: um but also efforts on the part of Chinese leaders

55
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 1: to figure out how should they respond both to this

56
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:12,840
Speaker 1: latest salvo against Huafwei, but also what does it mean

57
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:17,000
Speaker 1: for their broader response to US. China ties. This is

58
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:20,400
Speaker 1: all happening at a time fallen Lisa, when we're watching

59
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 1: a nationalist sentiment in China which appears to be hardening.

60
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 1: For the longest time, Beijing has taken a very moderated

61
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:35,440
Speaker 1: tone when responding to US pushing against Chinese industrial practices

62
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:38,600
Speaker 1: and policies, and of course with the escalation of tariffs,

63
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:41,720
Speaker 1: that may be changing. And again what it comes down

64
00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 1: to is, first and foremost, Beijing is going to be

65
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:47,720
Speaker 1: looking to understand how lenient or how hard rather will

66
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:54,320
Speaker 1: the Trump administration be in executing um UH the approving

67
00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:58,760
Speaker 1: licenses or not for companies suppliers to be able to

68
00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:00,800
Speaker 1: continue to work for what? Right now? Why is this

69
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:07,880
Speaker 1: important to Beijing? Huawei is its most important, biggest technology company.

70
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 1: It is a global champion in leader UH, and if

71
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:16,440
Speaker 1: fully implemented, the entity list would immediately deny Huahwei access

72
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:20,159
Speaker 1: to critical hardware and software suppliers here in the US

73
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:23,839
Speaker 1: that it uses in this global mobile infrastructure and handset businesses.

74
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:28,560
Speaker 1: This could virtually hit all of Huawei's products, high end smartphones,

75
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:31,840
Speaker 1: mobile infrastructure, data centers, and cloud services. It's going to

76
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:35,920
Speaker 1: have an immediate global impact for any company that utilizes

77
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:39,280
Speaker 1: Huawei products or services. It really puts that company at

78
00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 1: at grave risk. Meredith, how do we assess whether this

79
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 1: is just sort of a chip that President Trump is

80
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:49,839
Speaker 1: using to try to bring a deal to a close

81
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:52,479
Speaker 1: in the near term versus some sort of longer term

82
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:56,800
Speaker 1: effort by the United States to curb Chinese growth and

83
00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 1: development and technology space. So the Trump administration would say

84
00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,880
Speaker 1: that that look, these are are parallel tracks that the

85
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:09,240
Speaker 1: efforts to investigate Huawei and to come to determination on

86
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:13,160
Speaker 1: on what should happen with Huawei with the entity list,

87
00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:17,440
Speaker 1: So that was separate from the ongoing three oh one

88
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:23,000
Speaker 1: trade investigation and negotiations. But critical from here on is

89
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:27,480
Speaker 1: watching for signs that Trump is actively seeking to manage

90
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:31,160
Speaker 1: the situation, including by signaling to She continued interest in

91
00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:35,960
Speaker 1: negotiating um. This will will tell us if the prospect

92
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:38,760
Speaker 1: of a meeting between Trump and She to de escalate

93
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:42,080
Speaker 1: the trade tensions and to do it to de escalate

94
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:46,119
Speaker 1: this latest evo against Huawei will take place in coming

95
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:49,480
Speaker 1: weeks or not. Meredith Sumter, thank you so much for

96
00:05:49,560 --> 00:06:06,720
Speaker 1: taking the time with us well. The White House on

97
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:11,000
Speaker 1: Wednesday initiated a two prompt assault on China, first barring

98
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:14,200
Speaker 1: companies deemed a national security threat from selling to the

99
00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:18,599
Speaker 1: US and to threatening to blacklist Huawei technologies from buying

100
00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 1: essential components. To get a sense of what this means

101
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:24,799
Speaker 1: for the global telecom business. We welcome wu Jinhoe. Wouin

102
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 1: is a senior technology as for Bloomberg Intelligence based in Princeton,

103
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 1: New Jersey, and John Butler, senior Telecom services and Equipment

104
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:34,680
Speaker 1: analysts for Bloomberg Intelligence. He joins us here in our

105
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:37,880
Speaker 1: Bloomberg Interactive Broker Studio. So would I want to start

106
00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 1: with you if you could just describe what Wahwei does

107
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:44,479
Speaker 1: and how important they are to the global telecom space.

108
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:48,400
Speaker 1: Thanks Paul, Thanks Lisa. So so a couple of things. Uh,

109
00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:50,800
Speaker 1: if you look at Wahwei the way I've always you,

110
00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:55,520
Speaker 1: blahweh is um one of the fastest growing company that

111
00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:58,359
Speaker 1: Americans have not really have heard of up until recently.

112
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:03,680
Speaker 1: And what Whahwei is the number one telecom equipment supplier globally.

113
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:08,840
Speaker 1: They're also the number one smartphone supplier globally. And UM,

114
00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 1: you know, from a supply cham perspective, they rely on

115
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 1: a lot of the U S components because even though

116
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:18,640
Speaker 1: they do make their own chips, uh, they can't make

117
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:21,680
Speaker 1: all of it. So there is a global supply chain

118
00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:26,760
Speaker 1: application from this from a potential ban So I'm just wondering, John,

119
00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:30,559
Speaker 1: from your perspective, which companies in the United States stand

120
00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:32,920
Speaker 1: to benefit the most. I mean, certainly we've there's been

121
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:35,680
Speaker 1: a lot of focus on the ones that have that

122
00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:38,720
Speaker 1: have suffered as a result of speculation that Wahwei could

123
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:41,440
Speaker 1: be uh that could be banned from buying components here.

124
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:44,760
Speaker 1: So the immediate thoughtly said that I had when I

125
00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 1: heard this news was g it's good for Nokiana, Ericson,

126
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:53,000
Speaker 1: which are not US companies, um, but they compete very

127
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:58,040
Speaker 1: closely with Huawei in the radio based station market. So

128
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:02,080
Speaker 1: as all these networks in the US initially and elsewhere

129
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:05,800
Speaker 1: around the world later this year upgrade to five G,

130
00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:10,920
Speaker 1: the race is on between Huawei, Nokia, Ericsson, and Samsung

131
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:14,400
Speaker 1: to get share of that market. So I think net

132
00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:18,440
Speaker 1: net this is good for Nokia and Ericsson. The one

133
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:21,480
Speaker 1: thing to watch is what Jim was talking about. There's

134
00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:24,720
Speaker 1: the threat of a ban on the supply of US

135
00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:28,800
Speaker 1: components to Huawei, and so the question becomes, how does

136
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:32,960
Speaker 1: Beijing respond to that if in fact the US makes

137
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:36,079
Speaker 1: good on that threat. So Jin, how about on the

138
00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:40,200
Speaker 1: chip side. I know, again some of the big chip makers,

139
00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:42,720
Speaker 1: a lot of them US based. Uh you know, listen,

140
00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:47,000
Speaker 1: Huawei is a big customer. How are they reacting sure. So, Um,

141
00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:50,439
Speaker 1: I'm looking at my screen right now, and uh, half

142
00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:53,640
Speaker 1: my screen is green and half my screen is read.

143
00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:57,280
Speaker 1: So from from the red side has been essentially all

144
00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:01,360
Speaker 1: the chip makers. Anybody who's anybody in the semiconductor space

145
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:05,199
Speaker 1: will supply to Whahwei, especially given their dominance and a

146
00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:09,839
Speaker 1: smartphone space and on the networking space in particular in

147
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:12,480
Speaker 1: the optical space. So if we look at companies like

148
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:15,960
Speaker 1: Neo Photonics of a small cap company, but they supply

149
00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:19,719
Speaker 1: optical components of Whawe, they are about revenues. And on

150
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:23,760
Speaker 1: the other hand, we have companies like Skywork as well

151
00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:29,280
Speaker 1: as Corvo, meaningful radio frequency chip suppliers globally. Um, you know,

152
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:31,640
Speaker 1: they're about ten percent of sales, and then you have

153
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:36,800
Speaker 1: a slew of companies that provide anywhere between two to

154
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:41,760
Speaker 1: three percent of total sales to Yahwei. So John, you're

155
00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:44,959
Speaker 1: talking about how you know there is this sort of

156
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:49,719
Speaker 1: positive benefit potentially to providers of five G technology in

157
00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:51,760
Speaker 1: the United States who are not going to have these

158
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:54,800
Speaker 1: restrictions on them. I'm just wondering that you also mentioned

159
00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:57,880
Speaker 1: the retaliation from China. What are some of the potential

160
00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:02,000
Speaker 1: steps that China could take Well, the one I'm worried about,

161
00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:05,800
Speaker 1: Lisa is the potential for Apple to get slapped with

162
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:11,080
Speaker 1: restrictions in China. Um. They derive almost of their revenue

163
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:15,600
Speaker 1: from from Greater China, so that would include Hong Kong

164
00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:19,880
Speaker 1: and other surrounding regions within China. But the reality is

165
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:23,439
Speaker 1: that Beijing wanted to really get tough on Apple, Um,

166
00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:26,400
Speaker 1: it would hurt and it could hurt the US as well.

167
00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:31,440
Speaker 1: Keep in mind that one of the iPhones are manufactured

168
00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:35,800
Speaker 1: in China, so they could not only uh, look at

169
00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:39,040
Speaker 1: Apple or hit Apple on the sales side, but also

170
00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:42,800
Speaker 1: on the manufacturing side. It's interesting, John, just looking at Apple,

171
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:45,280
Speaker 1: It's off about zero point eight percent today in a

172
00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:47,959
Speaker 1: market where the nasdacs up over one percent. So clearly

173
00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:51,160
Speaker 1: clearly some concern in there. Well, which just wondering, you know,

174
00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:54,320
Speaker 1: if if I'm Whahwei, this is a really big deal,

175
00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:56,600
Speaker 1: isn't it, Because I mean, this is really a threat

176
00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:58,280
Speaker 1: to my business because if I can't get chips from

177
00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:01,440
Speaker 1: the US, can they even source chips to make up

178
00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:06,120
Speaker 1: from other parts of the world. Um? Uh, great question, Paul. Uh.

179
00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:09,719
Speaker 1: The short answer is no. But the one thing that

180
00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:11,920
Speaker 1: I can say based on the learning's calls that I've

181
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:17,440
Speaker 1: heard UM across my sector is that Wawei actually has

182
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:20,640
Speaker 1: some STOCKPI stockpiling chips over the past couple of quarters

183
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:25,760
Speaker 1: UH to help the risk some of the supply supply

184
00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:29,920
Speaker 1: chain concerns. We don't know how much that they've inventoried. UM,

185
00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 1: it might be a quarter or two of supply. So

186
00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:36,320
Speaker 1: if this is a short band, and then let's keep

187
00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:38,120
Speaker 1: in mind a band has not been put in place.

188
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:40,800
Speaker 1: But if there is a short ban in place, UM,

189
00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:43,560
Speaker 1: you know, it might not impact Huawei's business at all,

190
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:48,400
Speaker 1: but if they lasts beyond two potentially three quarters UH,

191
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:51,319
Speaker 1: then it could have broader implications for the space. I

192
00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:53,559
Speaker 1: have to say, Paul, it's interesting just looking at the

193
00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:56,760
Speaker 1: market reaction right now, it does not seem uh light

194
00:11:56,840 --> 00:12:00,640
Speaker 1: markets are fully pricing in that Huawei will be banned

195
00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:04,160
Speaker 1: from buying components in the US because right now, and

196
00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:07,000
Speaker 1: we're not seeing the sort of response that indicates that

197
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:10,040
Speaker 1: people are betting on an escalation and trade concerns. Yeah,

198
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:12,360
Speaker 1: you're right, I'm just looking at this strong nastac here.

199
00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:15,600
Speaker 1: So there's some pockets of weakness clearly where the semi chips,

200
00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:18,840
Speaker 1: but otherwise pretty strong that's right. Bloomer Intelligence is Wuginhoe

201
00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:23,760
Speaker 1: focusing on technology and John Butler focusing on telecoms. Thank

202
00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:44,720
Speaker 1: you so much for being with us. We appreciate it, so, Paul.

203
00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:47,280
Speaker 1: Among the people who I spoke with last night at

204
00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:51,440
Speaker 1: this modern CFO conference was Virginny Costa, chief financial officer

205
00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:55,079
Speaker 1: of Goodiva, and it was interesting. She talked about a

206
00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:59,840
Speaker 1: goal to increase revenue fivefold over the next five year

207
00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:02,199
Speaker 1: and the way that they're doing it is betting on

208
00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:05,240
Speaker 1: these cafes that they're starting to roll out. Uh and

209
00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:10,720
Speaker 1: something called a craffle or crawfle crossotte waffle uh, which

210
00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:14,480
Speaker 1: sounds delicious and which also sounds like you might not

211
00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:19,120
Speaker 1: want to know the content. It sounds very good. Let's

212
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:21,599
Speaker 1: I started out the conversation. Are we talking about the

213
00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:25,360
Speaker 1: cafe concept? What is new? Why it was rolled out

214
00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:27,800
Speaker 1: in the first place? Uh? And how the first good

215
00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:29,520
Speaker 1: I have a cafe was rolled out in the United

216
00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:32,160
Speaker 1: States last month. Let's listen to what she had to say.

217
00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:36,720
Speaker 1: We decided really to open a cafe for two reasons. First,

218
00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:39,480
Speaker 1: because we had an existing based in Middle East. We

219
00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:42,120
Speaker 1: have about forty of those cafe in Middle East that

220
00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:46,240
Speaker 1: were very successful and in here in North America. As

221
00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:48,680
Speaker 1: you said, we opened up the first one last month

222
00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:52,400
Speaker 1: with a brand new concept and more excitedly. Actually, we

223
00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:57,679
Speaker 1: also now have an expanded assortment, so we have available

224
00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:02,400
Speaker 1: about two dozen of unique items and new items. One

225
00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:05,480
Speaker 1: that I'm very fond of is called the craffle. It's

226
00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:09,240
Speaker 1: a trademarked name. It's a combination of croissan and waffle

227
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:12,040
Speaker 1: because it's actually a croissant that you press in a

228
00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:14,880
Speaker 1: waffle iron. And the beauty about it is that you

229
00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:18,360
Speaker 1: can fill it with either our milk or dark chocolate

230
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 1: for an afternoon snack, or you can have it severed

231
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:24,560
Speaker 1: in the morning your breakfast sandwich, fill with hamond cheese

232
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:27,760
Speaker 1: three cheese, which is my favorite egg sausage and career.

233
00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:31,760
Speaker 1: And it's really providing now an everyday occasion for our

234
00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:35,120
Speaker 1: customers to come to go diver and expanding on our

235
00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:38,960
Speaker 1: special occasion product. Now now you can come to us

236
00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:42,080
Speaker 1: every day. What's the financial case for opening up a

237
00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:45,360
Speaker 1: cafe at a time when restaurants are struggling, and we

238
00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:49,840
Speaker 1: know that other outlets are closing some some locations, we

239
00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:54,800
Speaker 1: think that there's a really immense opportunity to really rooted

240
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:58,640
Speaker 1: in our Belgium heritage. We have a unique proposition. It's

241
00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:01,640
Speaker 1: a unique product as as said, and just to share

242
00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:05,240
Speaker 1: the craffle, we also have Belgium waffles. We also developed

243
00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:08,680
Speaker 1: a signature Godiver cafe that pair very well with chocolate

244
00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:11,640
Speaker 1: and as well as signature tea pairing the same thing

245
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:14,840
Speaker 1: very well with chocolate. So it's a a really very

246
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:19,320
Speaker 1: nice expanded assortment rooted in a special Belgium heritage, a

247
00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:23,640
Speaker 1: unique proposition that we believe will really benefit the customers

248
00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:26,640
Speaker 1: across all their parts. Is it the experience kind of

249
00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:29,040
Speaker 1: aspect of it as well, and is that really the

250
00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:32,280
Speaker 1: biggest source of growth going forward that you see right

251
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:36,720
Speaker 1: now for Cadivera. Correct, absolutely, we think that exactly and

252
00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:39,840
Speaker 1: as a matter of fact, we have a plan to

253
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:44,160
Speaker 1: grow our revenue fivefold over the next six years and

254
00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:47,200
Speaker 1: the big part of that growth will come from those cafe.

255
00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:51,000
Speaker 1: We intend on actually deploying about two thousand cafe across

256
00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:54,200
Speaker 1: the globe. And and again back to that opportunity to

257
00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 1: really have a proposition that is really bringing customers across

258
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:01,200
Speaker 1: all their parts and come in the morning, you can

259
00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:03,160
Speaker 1: come for your lunch. We also have grab and go,

260
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:06,000
Speaker 1: you can come for your afternoon snacks. So now we

261
00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:10,640
Speaker 1: do have really building on our special occasion gifting proposition.

262
00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:15,240
Speaker 1: We really have a unique larger proposition. One thing that

263
00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:19,600
Speaker 1: we talk a lot about, aside from chocolate and wonderful waffles,

264
00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:22,920
Speaker 1: is the trade concerns that have been picking up recently.

265
00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:26,840
Speaker 1: And I have to wonder with a food consumer company

266
00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:28,880
Speaker 1: where I'm sure you import the ingredients from a lot

267
00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:32,160
Speaker 1: of different places, how much do some of the trade

268
00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:35,480
Speaker 1: tensions affect what you do? So the beauty of good

269
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:38,440
Speaker 1: Ivan it's not really well known. It's we are actually

270
00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:42,440
Speaker 1: a global business. We are presenting more than a hundred countries.

271
00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:47,360
Speaker 1: We have about eight hundred retail locations. And the benefit

272
00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:50,720
Speaker 1: of this is that and with the international customer traveling,

273
00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:55,360
Speaker 1: we are really benefiting from all the different elements that

274
00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:58,560
Speaker 1: can you know, happen in every piece of the world.

275
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:02,240
Speaker 1: Um So being globe all business help and enables you

276
00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:06,359
Speaker 1: I believe to have really a strong fundamentals to really

277
00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:09,520
Speaker 1: be in any sort of change that can happen in

278
00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:11,760
Speaker 1: So at some point in some place of the world,

279
00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:13,600
Speaker 1: what do you think it's going to be the biggest

280
00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:17,639
Speaker 1: challenge over the next few years. That's a very interesting question.

281
00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:20,520
Speaker 1: I think what continues and that's part of what the

282
00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:23,840
Speaker 1: conversation has been together is I think um and with

283
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:26,959
Speaker 1: my heart as a CFO, I think what really matters

284
00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:30,359
Speaker 1: is big data and how we will use and and

285
00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:33,360
Speaker 1: actually leverage big data. I think there's still a lot

286
00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:37,440
Speaker 1: of things that everybody is learning, either from a customer

287
00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:41,000
Speaker 1: perspective because you have access to such a lot of information,

288
00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:44,680
Speaker 1: but as well as an enterprise how to really leverage

289
00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:47,920
Speaker 1: the data. So I think it's um it's a challenge,

290
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:51,440
Speaker 1: but as well as a great opportunity for everybody as

291
00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:54,639
Speaker 1: individuals and as well as professionals in an organization. Do

292
00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:56,479
Speaker 1: you think that the big data issue is the biggest

293
00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:59,600
Speaker 1: change facing CFOs right now? I think it's a big

294
00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:02,920
Speaker 1: company none of what has made that role evolve over

295
00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:06,200
Speaker 1: already the past few years, and he will continue to evolve.

296
00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:09,280
Speaker 1: I believe how often do you actually eat goodiva chocolate

297
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:11,760
Speaker 1: because you're quite slimmed. I'm wondering, and how often do

298
00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:16,359
Speaker 1: you have quaffles, honest, honest chocolates every day? I cannot

299
00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:20,080
Speaker 1: help it. I have my my favorite proline and the

300
00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:23,200
Speaker 1: crawfoy is very addictive. Once you have tasted one, you

301
00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:26,040
Speaker 1: want that for your breakfast morning every morning? So that's

302
00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:28,920
Speaker 1: what you have every morning for breakfast. I try every

303
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:32,240
Speaker 1: morning a different flavor. I have to admit, maybe all

304
00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:35,440
Speaker 1: have your metabolism. Virginia Costa, thank you so much for

305
00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:38,800
Speaker 1: being with us. That was Virginia Costa, CFO of Godiva,

306
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:41,760
Speaker 1: on their new cafe concept and maybe why should eat

307
00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:44,240
Speaker 1: quaffles every morning? I think that was my takeaway. Lisa,

308
00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:49,720
Speaker 1: it sounds delicious, certainly very angry. Honestly. She elaborated a

309
00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:52,480
Speaker 1: little bit on the panel about big data and just

310
00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:55,359
Speaker 1: what that means for a retail brand, how you can

311
00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:58,560
Speaker 1: predict people's habits so you can predict when people are

312
00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:01,400
Speaker 1: going to be coming in and better cater to them.

313
00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:04,800
Speaker 1: It's just there's a lot of opportunity with big data

314
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:07,760
Speaker 1: that a lot of particularly retail facing companies are exploring,

315
00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:11,000
Speaker 1: but frankly all companies. That was really interesting to me. Yeah,

316
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:13,080
Speaker 1: it's interesting, and just for the good divers story, just

317
00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:15,040
Speaker 1: to hear that, you know, the kind of growth they

318
00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:17,879
Speaker 1: are forecasting for their company and uh, you know, basing

319
00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:21,040
Speaker 1: that growth on the cafe concept. So you know, I

320
00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:23,400
Speaker 1: would say a significant change in kind of their business model,

321
00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:41,400
Speaker 1: getting into kind of the retail side of chocolate. Walmart

322
00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:45,040
Speaker 1: shares are having their best one day rallies since December

323
00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:48,600
Speaker 1: as they reported better than expected earnings their strongest same

324
00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:52,359
Speaker 1: store growth in nine years. Joining us now to discuss

325
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:55,760
Speaker 1: Bert Flicking ger managing director for Strategic Resource Group, in

326
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:59,479
Speaker 1: our Bloombergotter Active Broker Studios in New York Bird, can

327
00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:02,920
Speaker 1: we get a sense of how long lasting the strength

328
00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:07,200
Speaker 1: that we saw in Walmart seems to be? Lisa, the

329
00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:11,000
Speaker 1: strength will go on for the foreseeable future, certainly the

330
00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:13,400
Speaker 1: next ten to fifteen years. If you look at Chicago,

331
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:19,720
Speaker 1: where you're broadcasting from now, you look at south side Chicago, Land,

332
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:24,520
Speaker 1: the state, Uh, from the Great Lakes region to the northeast,

333
00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:29,000
Speaker 1: densely populated areas. Walmart has one store for every thirty

334
00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:32,800
Speaker 1: to fifty thousand people in Alabama and states like California,

335
00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:35,320
Speaker 1: they've got one store for every half a million people.

336
00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:41,040
Speaker 1: So Uh, Doug McMillan, dynamic CEO is like the reincarnation

337
00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:45,680
Speaker 1: of Elane Elane May and Warren Beatties Uh seminal movie

338
00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:52,879
Speaker 1: Heaven Can Wait. He's uh investing in technology, investing in rooftop, solar,

339
00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:56,440
Speaker 1: every other kind of savings and lowering prices to race

340
00:20:56,520 --> 00:20:59,159
Speaker 1: shop or standard of living. And instead of looking at

341
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:01,840
Speaker 1: marketing as an expense, he's got the best and the

342
00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:06,560
Speaker 1: most effective advertising anywhere worldwide in retail. So for one

343
00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:08,480
Speaker 1: of the numbers that jumped out at me is that

344
00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:11,760
Speaker 1: has really for several quarters now is the online business.

345
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:15,160
Speaker 1: Their e commerce business. The revenue is up thirty seven percent. Boy,

346
00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:17,840
Speaker 1: it looks like, after you know, some initial stumbles early

347
00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:20,280
Speaker 1: on in their development of their e commerce platform, they've

348
00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:22,480
Speaker 1: really figured it out, and it looks like they're gonna

349
00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:24,040
Speaker 1: give Amazon a run for their money in terms of

350
00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:27,200
Speaker 1: the e commerce across a broad swath of consumer products.

351
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:31,720
Speaker 1: Paul completely correct, And what Walmart is doing is investing

352
00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:38,440
Speaker 1: in robotics, UH mechanization, satellite communications, doing it everything themselves,

353
00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:42,840
Speaker 1: where their competitors, with the exception of Amazon, are outsourcing.

354
00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:47,520
Speaker 1: So Walmart has more terribly like Bloomberg on the terminal.

355
00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:51,640
Speaker 1: Walmart has more terrob bytes of data than anybody worldwide,

356
00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:55,840
Speaker 1: than the other than the US Pentagon to be able

357
00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:59,919
Speaker 1: to deliver a ninety percent of the Bloomberg XM serious

358
00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:03,720
Speaker 1: audience within the next fifteen months, UH forty of the

359
00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:08,400
Speaker 1: top fifty metro areas ultimately forty five of the top fifties.

360
00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:11,040
Speaker 1: So whether it's in store click and collect or the

361
00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:16,399
Speaker 1: FedEx centers in the Walmart eleven format in Avon, Colorado, UH,

362
00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:22,879
Speaker 1: can consumer can save worldwide anywhere anytime with Walmart. No

363
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:24,639
Speaker 1: one else can do that. Well, you know, when we

364
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:28,199
Speaker 1: talk about Amazon and the shipping costs, we always focus

365
00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:31,280
Speaker 1: on how much more they're spending UH to get those

366
00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:34,360
Speaker 1: packages to people sooner and sooner. And Walmart is trying

367
00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:37,480
Speaker 1: to compete with that, offering similar types of delivery times.

368
00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:40,199
Speaker 1: And I'm wondering how much they're spending is going up?

369
00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:45,040
Speaker 1: Spending is going up, Lisa, But uh, their total supply

370
00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:50,239
Speaker 1: savings at Walmart. So Amazon will sell small products light

371
00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:53,399
Speaker 1: and weight small in cube uh and make a lot

372
00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:55,960
Speaker 1: of money. But if someone wants to order a baby

373
00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:59,960
Speaker 1: stroller or a big bag of pet food, UH, Amazon

374
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:03,200
Speaker 1: on charges a fortune and part of the savings and

375
00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:08,199
Speaker 1: in Walmart's brilliance in being the low price leader. Bloomberg

376
00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:11,880
Speaker 1: Editor in chief of Meredith Matthew Winkler did a great

377
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:16,199
Speaker 1: session with Tom yesterday on E S g u UM

378
00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:23,000
Speaker 1: Environmental social, sustainable and governance. And Walmart is investing so

379
00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:27,960
Speaker 1: much in sustainable rooftop solar with Inner Solar and others

380
00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:32,920
Speaker 1: as his Amazon target all the and BJ's wholesale club too,

381
00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:37,320
Speaker 1: that whether it's terraces or not, Walmart is finding so

382
00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:41,760
Speaker 1: many ways to save to reinvest. So, as Tom King says,

383
00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:45,000
Speaker 1: what are the units? Walmart was up three point four

384
00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:48,080
Speaker 1: percent as Paul reference today and same store sales, but

385
00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:51,760
Speaker 1: units are up over five percent. So you've got dollar

386
00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:56,840
Speaker 1: stores like Fred's multi regionally potentially filing for bankruptcy liquidation.

387
00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:00,440
Speaker 1: So Walmart's becoming a shopping center with in the four

388
00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:04,800
Speaker 1: walls of of Walmart and displacing thousands of shopping centers

389
00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:08,280
Speaker 1: across America in the In the process, Walmart's winning, to

390
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:12,120
Speaker 1: your point, Lisa, for the foreseeable future at least um

391
00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:16,600
Speaker 1: to and beyond. So just you know, looking at the

392
00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:20,120
Speaker 1: Bloomberg terminal um and the pg O function for Walmart's

393
00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:24,680
Speaker 1: nick at about almost of their sales from international, give

394
00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:27,080
Speaker 1: us a sense of where do you think that number goes?

395
00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:28,439
Speaker 1: You want to do? You think they want to continue

396
00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:32,800
Speaker 1: to grow their international business, grow international, but cautiously in

397
00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:38,040
Speaker 1: our field work UK Ireland. We saw the twin towers

398
00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:41,680
Speaker 1: of power from the continent. Uh all Brecht, which owns

399
00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:44,919
Speaker 1: Trader Joe's an Aldi in the US and Lethal as

400
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:48,359
Speaker 1: well as Occato and Amazon wal run Walmart out of

401
00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:52,960
Speaker 1: the UK old earlier continental Europe. So Walmart took the money.

402
00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:55,639
Speaker 1: I was going to take the money from Ozda to

403
00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:59,560
Speaker 1: reinvest in flip card in India, uh cautiously proceeding in

404
00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:02,680
Speaker 1: pr See or mainland China because the government is not

405
00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:06,359
Speaker 1: as supportive as one might think. So Walmart wins in

406
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:11,240
Speaker 1: North America, throughout Central and Latin America, and win selectively

407
00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:13,400
Speaker 1: in Asia. But India is going to be the big

408
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:18,399
Speaker 1: growth engine and will Walmart International will be profitable sales

409
00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:20,399
Speaker 1: and market share growth up to about a third to

410
00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:23,600
Speaker 1: thirty five percent of the company over the next ten years.

411
00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:26,440
Speaker 1: But we would be remiss if we didn't talk about

412
00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:29,520
Speaker 1: tariffs and Walmart's comments on the fact that they plan

413
00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:32,359
Speaker 1: on passing along the increased costs of certain goods to

414
00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:36,080
Speaker 1: consumers and they expect consumers to be able to absorb that.

415
00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:39,239
Speaker 1: That was taken as really good news by markets. Can

416
00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:42,439
Speaker 1: you talk a little bit about why good news by

417
00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:47,520
Speaker 1: markets is the Bloomberg Terminal reported today Lisa UH gross

418
00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:50,400
Speaker 1: margins at Walmart or over four percent for the first

419
00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:54,680
Speaker 1: time in a long time. Also, Walmart's offsetting tariff increases

420
00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:57,359
Speaker 1: by going to key vendors, for example an apparel on

421
00:25:57,400 --> 00:26:01,800
Speaker 1: the Bloomberg Terminal UH cotton prices the last two crop

422
00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:05,639
Speaker 1: years or historic lows, so Walmart saying, look, the cost

423
00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:10,000
Speaker 1: of raw materials for the suggested retail price are only

424
00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:14,720
Speaker 1: one or one tenth of the products. So you the manufacturer,

425
00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:18,280
Speaker 1: whether you find savings in cotton, whether you find savings

426
00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:22,920
Speaker 1: in technology or supply chain, or on shoring manufacturing in America,

427
00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:27,359
Speaker 1: North America or using other countries in Southern Ation instead

428
00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:31,760
Speaker 1: of North Asia to produce the effect of Walmart terrorists

429
00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:35,760
Speaker 1: will be material, as you said, but not nearly as

430
00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:38,840
Speaker 1: meaningful and and to the point of almost being diminimous

431
00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:42,399
Speaker 1: in this Gary Shilling deflationary environment where the cost of

432
00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:48,040
Speaker 1: TVs and consumer electronics decline year after holiday year. Bert Flickinger,
