1 00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:13,880 Speaker 1: Bloomberg Audio Studios, podcasts, radio news, the single. 2 00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:17,000 Speaker 2: Best idea for your snowy America. And we say be 3 00:00:17,079 --> 00:00:20,320 Speaker 2: careful this weekend and into next week. The cold. Next week, 4 00:00:20,360 --> 00:00:23,680 Speaker 2: I guess it's going to be even more extraordinary. Chris 5 00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:28,080 Speaker 2: Whalen came in from the cold, expert on real estate 6 00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:31,000 Speaker 2: at Whaleen Global Advisors. I had to start off with 7 00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:33,479 Speaker 2: this whole idea of taking money from your four to 8 00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:36,120 Speaker 2: ohoe K, you should buy a house. Let's listen. 9 00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:39,840 Speaker 3: They're trying to help affordability at a time when home 10 00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:42,960 Speaker 3: prices have gone up fifty percent since COVID. Think of 11 00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:45,960 Speaker 3: that as the cost of COVID yep. And so how 12 00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:48,120 Speaker 3: do you fix that? You let home prices go down. 13 00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:51,000 Speaker 3: But President Trump has already said that he doesn't want 14 00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:53,680 Speaker 3: to do that because that would hurt everybody out there 15 00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:56,000 Speaker 3: who's gotten a mortgage in the last three four years. 16 00:00:56,520 --> 00:00:59,960 Speaker 3: So there's a big conundrum here. Chris Whalen didn't mince words. 17 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:01,720 Speaker 3: He doesn't think it's going to happen. We'll have to 18 00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:05,240 Speaker 3: see the President. I believe I saw just in the 19 00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:08,080 Speaker 3: last forty eight hours. It's just said, this is not 20 00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 3: my idea. That sort of tells me, I wonder where 21 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:12,360 Speaker 3: this is going. 22 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:15,360 Speaker 2: We started strong this morning, Joe Quinlan with US with 23 00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:19,720 Speaker 2: Merrill and Bank of America Private Bank, Joe Quinland in 24 00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:22,760 Speaker 2: the flavor of investment in twenty twenty six. 25 00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:24,440 Speaker 3: We still like the US. 26 00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:26,679 Speaker 4: I think the US had an off year and it's 27 00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:28,600 Speaker 4: kind of like, you know, the Boston Celtics, one of 28 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:31,199 Speaker 4: the greatest dynasties out there. They don't win every year. 29 00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:33,959 Speaker 4: But the OC economy is part of our core portfolio 30 00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:37,399 Speaker 4: holdings the equities, but we do like overseas where there's China, 31 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:42,959 Speaker 4: tech banks in Europe, defense plays in Europe and South Korea, Japan. 32 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:46,960 Speaker 4: So the breadth of opportunities for retail institution investors has 33 00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:48,800 Speaker 4: brought in. So it's just not about the MAC seven, 34 00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 4: it's not about the US equities. It's broader and that's 35 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 4: a good thing. 36 00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:55,280 Speaker 2: Big Tech Week next week Joe Quinlan will be looking that. 37 00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:57,760 Speaker 2: I really want to mention the work of Julian Emmanuel 38 00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:01,920 Speaker 2: evercore Isi, who on a day basis recalibrates what we 39 00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:05,120 Speaker 2: know so far about the earning season, and this morning 40 00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:08,239 Speaker 2: he published a year on year equivalent of fourteen point 41 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:11,960 Speaker 2: four percent up. That's a ginormous number. 42 00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:12,320 Speaker 3: To me. 43 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:15,400 Speaker 2: The mystery and I don't have an opinion on this 44 00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:20,560 Speaker 2: is how long to so called double digit earnings growth continue. 45 00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:25,680 Speaker 2: It's a podcast, Single Best Idea on Spotify, on YouTube, 46 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:37,600 Speaker 2: it is single best idea.
