16
00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:06,240
Speaker 1: Carroll and I'm Caroline Hick. Here all the stories that

17
00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:09,760
Speaker 1: we're following today. Traders are abandoning bets of the Federal

18
00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:11,920
Speaker 1: Reserve is about to cut rates, with a two year

19
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:15,600
Speaker 1: treasury yield rising above four and a half percent. The

20
00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:19,920
Speaker 1: market rethink comes after data showed consumer prices rising six

21
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:22,959
Speaker 1: point four percent in January compared to a year earlier.

22
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:27,520
Speaker 1: Speaking exclusively to Bloomberg, Richmond FED President Thomas Barkin says

23
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,720
Speaker 1: the central bank will hike higher if needed. We may

24
00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:33,360
Speaker 1: or may not choose to take rates up further if

25
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:36,199
Speaker 1: inflation continues to persist, but we'll have to see what happens.

26
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:39,039
Speaker 1: If inflation settles, maybe we don't go quite as far.

27
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:42,679
Speaker 1: But of inflation persists and levels well above our our target,

28
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:45,720
Speaker 1: may we'll have to do more. Barkin's view was echoed

29
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:48,720
Speaker 1: elsewhere by Dallas FED President Laurry Logan, who said rate

30
00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:53,480
Speaker 1: rises may be needed for a longer period than previously anticipated.

31
00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:59,000
Speaker 1: Now moving on, Once considered uninvestable, Chinese stocks have become

32
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:02,160
Speaker 1: a must have for edge funds again. The latest filings

33
00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:05,080
Speaker 1: show that they loaded up on the shares last quarter

34
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 1: as Beijing abandoned its COVID zero policy. Even Michael Burry,

35
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:12,120
Speaker 1: the money manager made famous by the Big Short, is

36
00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:15,239
Speaker 1: going along. Meanwhile, Berkshire Hathaway has provided an update on

37
00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:18,160
Speaker 1: what it's holding, and it's been bulking up its position

38
00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 1: in Apple. The story from Bloombergs Charlie Palace. In addition,

39
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:27,040
Speaker 1: Berkshire expanded its stakes in Paramount Global and Louisiana Pacific Corp.

40
00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:30,560
Speaker 1: In the last three months of two according to a

41
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:33,560
Speaker 1: regulatory filing. At the same time, Berkshire trimmed as some

42
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:37,640
Speaker 1: of its financial holdings, including its stakes in US BANKORPS,

43
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:41,480
Speaker 1: Bank of New York, Melon and Ally Financial. The remainder

44
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:45,560
Speaker 1: of the company's portfolio was largely unchanged in New York.

45
00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:49,560
Speaker 1: Charlie Pellett Bloomberg Daybreak Europe Now, Bloomberg has learned that

46
00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 1: the European Union is seeking to force banks to report

47
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:56,560
Speaker 1: information on frozen Russian Central Bank assets as part of

48
00:02:56,639 --> 00:03:00,880
Speaker 1: its tenth package of sanctions targeting Moscow. Commission is also

49
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 1: proposing extensive trade restrictions on goods used by Russia's military,

50
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:10,679
Speaker 1: including technology, heavy vehicles, and electronics. After a record slew

51
00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 1: of job cuts, Goldman CEO David Solomon says the bank

52
00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 1: plans to have stricter hiring policies going forward. He told

53
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:20,200
Speaker 1: her Credit Swiss conference cutting costs was a key focus

54
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:23,720
Speaker 1: for him. We are in a position to lower the

55
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:26,360
Speaker 1: head count of the firm. We've taken some action. Um,

56
00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:29,639
Speaker 1: we have a much tighter hiring plan in three and

57
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:32,600
Speaker 1: then attrition rolls through and so that also helps and

58
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:35,560
Speaker 1: creates more cost leverage. I think we're very targeted and

59
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:38,960
Speaker 1: focused and we'll be in a good place. Speaking at

60
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 1: the same conference as Solomon JP, Morgan's chief financial officer,

61
00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 1: Jeremy Barnum also struck a pessimistic tone. He warned the

62
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,640
Speaker 1: lender's first quarter trading revenue for this year made a

63
00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:51,920
Speaker 1: kline compared to the eight point eight billion dollars it

64
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:56,000
Speaker 1: pulled in at the start of two. And finally, Elon

65
00:03:56,120 --> 00:04:00,320
Speaker 1: Musk has reportedly had Twitter's engineers all to the social

66
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:03,840
Speaker 1: media's algorithm so that his own tweets get more views.

67
00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:07,920
Speaker 1: According to Platformer, the billionaire owner for the social media

68
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,960
Speaker 1: firm was unhappy with the number of views that his

69
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 1: Super Bowl tweet got. The change would be at odd

70
00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:17,840
Speaker 1: with musque previous comments on preferential treatment before taking the

71
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:19,920
Speaker 1: company private. He said that he wanted to make the

72
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:24,440
Speaker 1: site an even playing field without bias. Okay, those are

73
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:28,000
Speaker 1: top stories this morning. Well, well, well, people doing doing

74
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,480
Speaker 1: making ways to make their their social media more popular

75
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,840
Speaker 1: and not just a regular social media strategy, really, is it? No?

76
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,240
Speaker 1: I mean, look it's a little bit strange, isn't it.

77
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:40,520
Speaker 1: But yes, it's one report on elon mask and the

78
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:43,479
Speaker 1: super Bowl tweets over the weekend, and look, I've been

79
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 1: more focused on what's happening here in the UK Waitrose

80
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:50,120
Speaker 1: custing prices to compete that the high sweet competition, champagne

81
00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:53,080
Speaker 1: corps being puffed everywhere as a result. Look, I mean

82
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:55,200
Speaker 1: it's a bit more mundane than that, isn't it. Waits

83
00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:57,280
Speaker 1: is facing so much competition on the high street other

84
00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:00,080
Speaker 1: firms of slashing costs and it goes of course to

85
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:03,200
Speaker 1: the inflation number that is the all important data. After

86
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:05,480
Speaker 1: the U s CPI figure yesterday we get the UK

87
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:09,839
Speaker 1: inflation data at seven am, three d own brand products

88
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:14,880
Speaker 1: from Waitrose are going to see prices cut. Food price

89
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:18,599
Speaker 1: inflation is just staggering sixteen point seven and looks interesting

90
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,080
Speaker 1: because we've had other supermarkets have done this already. You know,

91
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:23,120
Speaker 1: many of the other big players, test Go a Little

92
00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:25,720
Speaker 1: Algae have their price match guaranteed to ensure their charge

93
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:28,159
Speaker 1: and the same price as Waitrose until now hasn't gotten

94
00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,360
Speaker 1: in on that. But they've obviously decided that even the

95
00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:34,120
Speaker 1: hallowed Waitrose consumer is also worried about prices going up,

96
00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:35,880
Speaker 1: so it is interesting to see them taking this action

97
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:38,559
Speaker 1: as well. Yeah. Plus also on the kind of paying

98
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:44,080
Speaker 1: for things side of issues, Yeah, slightly to but should

99
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:47,040
Speaker 1: have brought an electric vehicle. I'm certainly kicking myself when

100
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 1: I look at the data that we've been reporting on

101
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:53,640
Speaker 1: this morning. It's Tom Tom data, but apparently London second

102
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,120
Speaker 1: only to Hong Kong in terms of how expensive it

103
00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:59,159
Speaker 1: is to drive a petrol vehicle more than two thousand,

104
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:03,400
Speaker 1: five hundred quick last year. It makes you think, certainly,

105
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:08,320
Speaker 1: walk a bit more. Stephen up next Sooner considers backdating pay.

106
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:12,000
Speaker 1: Barsonaro plans a return to Brazil and a two billion

107
00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:18,200
Speaker 1: dollar lottery win. Now the paper review on Blue Birddaybreak Europe.

108
00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:21,600
Speaker 1: The news you need to know from today's papers. I

109
00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,480
Speaker 1: thought we've got a lottery win in today's newspapers will

110
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:26,800
Speaker 1: get to that well. I suppose it's a fun story.

111
00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:28,800
Speaker 1: A bit later on Blue Bakeley and Karen's is here

112
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 1: with details. Let's start with the meet the serious staff

113
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:34,480
Speaker 1: for the report in the ft. The headline we she

114
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:39,040
Speaker 1: soon like explores public sector paid deal that back dates

115
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:42,560
Speaker 1: wage offer. Yes, indeed, Caroline, good morning to you. So

116
00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:45,400
Speaker 1: the Prime Minister and the Chancellor, according to the FT,

117
00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:48,840
Speaker 1: are exploring this pay offer, and this is really to

118
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:52,120
Speaker 1: try to end the way for public sector strikes that

119
00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:56,320
Speaker 1: we have seen here for months. According to the paper,

120
00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:59,600
Speaker 1: to try to sweeten this pill, Richie Soon, I can

121
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:03,039
Speaker 1: Jerry me Hunt are considering giving workers a lum sum

122
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:07,159
Speaker 1: of money by back dating next year's pay rise, which

123
00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:12,680
Speaker 1: takes effect from April probably to the start of January three.

124
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:15,760
Speaker 1: Now we did hear ripples and a few rumors months

125
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:19,280
Speaker 1: back about this back dated pay but now after weeks

126
00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:23,920
Speaker 1: of deadlock, it's really important to clarify that no final

127
00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:28,200
Speaker 1: decisions have actually been made as of yet. However, the

128
00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:32,600
Speaker 1: newspaper highlights that these talks do reflect fears currently brewing

129
00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:36,240
Speaker 1: in Downing Street that the waves of strikes could run

130
00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:39,360
Speaker 1: on for months and months. And remember we're not that

131
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:43,120
Speaker 1: far from an election, and public sector pay awards for

132
00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:48,600
Speaker 1: two and twenty three were around five percent and inflation

133
00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:52,320
Speaker 1: actually stood at ten point five pc back in December,

134
00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:56,400
Speaker 1: so way above those public sector pay awards, and there's

135
00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:58,760
Speaker 1: going to be more news on the inflation front. Today

136
00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:02,120
Speaker 1: we get the UK headline CPI growth and that's scene

137
00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:05,240
Speaker 1: is slowing to ten point three percent in January from

138
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:09,680
Speaker 1: that figure in December, and that's due to weaker fuel prices,

139
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:13,000
Speaker 1: even though it is expensive in London to drive, like

140
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:16,160
Speaker 1: you just mentioned. I just think tenuous link. Yes, no,

141
00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:19,520
Speaker 1: it is. I also just think it's isn't it's clever

142
00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:22,800
Speaker 1: that this is how potentially the government would get around

143
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:25,360
Speaker 1: the idea that the Prime Minister has said that he

144
00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:28,440
Speaker 1: doesn't want to reopen the pay negotiations for pay this year. Well,

145
00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:32,480
Speaker 1: if it's about next year's pay, that is just backdated.

146
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:35,319
Speaker 1: It's a little bit of wiggle room in the language,

147
00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:37,240
Speaker 1: isn't there. Yeah, I'm took me a minute to get

148
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:38,720
Speaker 1: my head around that idea. But I think I've gotten

149
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:40,920
Speaker 1: a know, so love somebody back dating next year's pay

150
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:43,240
Speaker 1: your eyes to the storage of this year. That is

151
00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:45,440
Speaker 1: kind of essentially an advance on next year's pay rise. Right,

152
00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:46,800
Speaker 1: I think I've gotten it now. Right, let's turn to

153
00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:49,120
Speaker 1: the World Street Journal next. We've all got it now, Stephen,

154
00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 1: thank you. Yes, I'm always the last. Turn to the

155
00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:54,599
Speaker 1: World Street Journal next, Baltonaro says he will return to

156
00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:57,760
Speaker 1: Brazil and march to lead opposition. Yes, indeed, so the

157
00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 1: former Brazilian president Shayea Bolsonaro is planning his return to Brazil,

158
00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:05,079
Speaker 1: and he said that's actually going to be next month,

159
00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:08,760
Speaker 1: and he's planning to lead the political opposition to President

160
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:13,839
Speaker 1: Lula de Silva and defend himself against his accusations that

161
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:18,520
Speaker 1: he incited attacks by protesters on government buildings when he

162
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 1: was voted out of offers. Now, this is his first

163
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:26,080
Speaker 1: interview since leaving the top job with the Wall Street Journal,

164
00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:30,480
Speaker 1: and according to the paper, Bolsonaro was surrounded by bodyguards

165
00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:33,680
Speaker 1: as he gave this interview in the US and said

166
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:37,880
Speaker 1: the right wing movement is not dead and we live

167
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:43,320
Speaker 1: on Balsonaro has never conceded that he actually lost that election,

168
00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:47,000
Speaker 1: last year's election, and now was actually staying with friends

169
00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:50,679
Speaker 1: in Florida. Well, it seems that he's plotting. Has come

170
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:53,839
Speaker 1: back to Brazil, and Bolsonaro says he is eager to

171
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:57,839
Speaker 1: get home, but acknowledge those illegal risks he faced after

172
00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:01,880
Speaker 1: he was accused by prosecutors of inciting rights in January

173
00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:05,720
Speaker 1: with social media posts that did warn of a voter

174
00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:09,240
Speaker 1: fraud echoes there to what may have happened in the

175
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:13,480
Speaker 1: US Caroline, but it does appear that Bolsonaro is plotting

176
00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:17,280
Speaker 1: a return despite Lula da Silva being in power. He

177
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:21,520
Speaker 1: won by a slim majority, but still a majority. He

178
00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:25,160
Speaker 1: won exactly so in terms. Yeah, Also, they did have

179
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:27,640
Speaker 1: a nice photograph. Actually, I thought that they actually had

180
00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:30,880
Speaker 1: a picture Barsonara looking relatively relaxed, I thought in the

181
00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:33,439
Speaker 1: water Journal. And we've seen him go to KFC in

182
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:36,640
Speaker 1: all different restaurants while he has been staying in the States.

183
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:39,920
Speaker 1: Just put that out there. Interesting. The headline in the

184
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:44,680
Speaker 1: Times two billion dollar lottery win Edwin Castro is shocked

185
00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:49,040
Speaker 1: and ecstatic. Why did you want to highlight this newspaper story? Well,

186
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:50,920
Speaker 1: I want to highlight those because I think this is

187
00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:53,559
Speaker 1: a very smart man. And the reason it's not just

188
00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:57,280
Speaker 1: because he's won the lottery, but he actually has told

189
00:10:57,400 --> 00:11:01,160
Speaker 1: officials that he wants to remain in private and has

190
00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:05,280
Speaker 1: declined to release his age, occupation and also his address.

191
00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:08,720
Speaker 1: But his name has now come into the forefront after

192
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:12,360
Speaker 1: he did win the biggest amount on the lottery ever,

193
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:14,400
Speaker 1: I mean, what are you going to do with two

194
00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:18,840
Speaker 1: point zero four billion dollars. Yes, do you. Oh well,

195
00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:22,960
Speaker 1: I'm sure, but he actually scooped that lottery win after

196
00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:26,160
Speaker 1: buying a ticket at a convenience store in l A.

197
00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:30,199
Speaker 1: So what a lucky guy. Now, Castro's win means that

198
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:33,959
Speaker 1: three of the ten largest tickets in US history have

199
00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:38,760
Speaker 1: all been sold in California. That's just a tip. Yes,

200
00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:41,600
Speaker 1: I've got my playing ticket booked hours ago, but that's

201
00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:43,760
Speaker 1: just a tip bit for anyone who wants to buy

202
00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:46,599
Speaker 1: a winning ticket go to California. But I think this

203
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:51,359
Speaker 1: is interesting because I think to not actually release your age, occupation,

204
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:55,120
Speaker 1: and address is probably quite sensible. And I do agree

205
00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:58,760
Speaker 1: as a sense of lottery that they don't don't stay

206
00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:01,480
Speaker 1: sensible for very long. Yes, and tee. But the odds

207
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:05,079
Speaker 1: I mean of winning. I'm sorry, I'm still into the mathsphatism. Yeah,

208
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:07,760
Speaker 1: you're more likely to be hit by a meteor, rights, etcetera,

209
00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:10,240
Speaker 1: etcetera than than win. But yeah, really good. Thank you

210
00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:12,600
Speaker 1: so much again for the roundup of newspapers this morning.

211
00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:14,760
Speaker 1: Let's get back to some of the Central Bank action.

212
00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:18,080
Speaker 1: Several FED officials stressing on Tuesday that interest rates may

213
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:20,400
Speaker 1: need to move to a higher level after US consumer

214
00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:23,199
Speaker 1: prices rose by half a percent in January. That was

215
00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:25,720
Speaker 1: the most in three months. We've got Bloomberg's Mark Cranfield

216
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:28,920
Speaker 1: from our Markets Life team with us for more market Mark.

217
00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,960
Speaker 1: Great to have you with us. Traders forced to rethink

218
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:35,840
Speaker 1: the Fed path after this inflation data. Yeah, it's been

219
00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:39,920
Speaker 1: a very steady stream of hawkish Federal reserveial racist jobs

220
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:43,040
Speaker 1: data earlier in the month. But probably the most significant

221
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:47,800
Speaker 1: thing that's that's happened is that traders are finally taken

222
00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:50,640
Speaker 1: out the potential rate cuts for later in this year.

223
00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:54,439
Speaker 1: For some time we were still pricing but the lower

224
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:58,760
Speaker 1: rates before the end of that's finally now being taken

225
00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:01,760
Speaker 1: out of the market and seeing that yields arise everywhere,

226
00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:04,240
Speaker 1: and people now are starting to price for the fact

227
00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:07,400
Speaker 1: that the Fed could continue raising rates even through to

228
00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:10,360
Speaker 1: June this year, which is a slight change from what

229
00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 1: we've been seeing in recent weeks. So it's it's all

230
00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:15,319
Speaker 1: starting to come home there and in the rates market

231
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:17,760
Speaker 1: and obviously other asset platists or we need to start

232
00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:21,640
Speaker 1: paying attention to that because there was some people thinking

233
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:24,040
Speaker 1: that the Feds will go too far and it was

234
00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:26,600
Speaker 1: going to have to reverse course quickly. But that really

235
00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:28,160
Speaker 1: doesn't look as that it's going to be the case,

236
00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:31,679
Speaker 1: and particularly equity market probably hasn't really noticed that just yet.

237
00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:35,240
Speaker 1: The rethink on inflation has been applied to many other

238
00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:38,479
Speaker 1: global central banks though too. You know this is recalibrating

239
00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:42,960
Speaker 1: for the fairs. Yeah, I mean, it's what happens there

240
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:45,640
Speaker 1: tends to spread to other places. So it's obviously the

241
00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:48,640
Speaker 1: Europeans will be looking at it pretty closely, probably the

242
00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:51,880
Speaker 1: Bank of England as well. It doesn't usually stop in

243
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:54,280
Speaker 1: one place like that, and obviously when you look at

244
00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:57,160
Speaker 1: the CPI data there were revisions higher as well. So

245
00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:00,360
Speaker 1: though um, we're under a six percent how door now

246
00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:02,800
Speaker 1: for for CPR, which is a slight improvement, they're still

247
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:05,599
Speaker 1: way too high and they put up some of the

248
00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:10,000
Speaker 1: previous months. So there's no way as the inflation battle finished.

249
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:13,320
Speaker 1: As far as the feeders concerned. Europeans are saying similar

250
00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:16,839
Speaker 1: things as well. Um, looks as though the seculation story,

251
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:20,400
Speaker 1: which we thought was the story, actually the three story,

252
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:21,720
Speaker 1: and it looks like he's going to go on for

253
00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:24,760
Speaker 1: some time. We've also been hearing mark from the governor

254
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:27,920
Speaker 1: of Australia Center Bank, Philip I was speaking to lawmakers

255
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:33,200
Speaker 1: in Canberra and much in his testimony for markets UM,

256
00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:36,320
Speaker 1: he was indicating that he thinks a soft lending it's

257
00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:40,560
Speaker 1: still possible for Australia, and the rates market took it

258
00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:43,760
Speaker 1: pretty well. There was a rebound in the Australian bondom

259
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:46,600
Speaker 1: market on the back of that UM so as though

260
00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:48,840
Speaker 1: they were thinking that he wouldn't have to go too

261
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:51,440
Speaker 1: much further on interest rate hikes. He said the job

262
00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:54,840
Speaker 1: wasn't finished, but they seemed to be indicating that there

263
00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:57,360
Speaker 1: might not be too much more, maybe one, possibly too

264
00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:00,600
Speaker 1: two more rate hikes in australa radio. But he does

265
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:02,840
Speaker 1: seem to have a bit of a communication issue because

266
00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:05,960
Speaker 1: it was only last week that the RBA stunded very

267
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:09,680
Speaker 1: hawkish and since there he sees you backtracking a little

268
00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:11,560
Speaker 1: bit on some of the things he said. And it's

269
00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:13,880
Speaker 1: been a little bit of the case over the past

270
00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:16,080
Speaker 1: few months that the the r BA say one thing

271
00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:18,600
Speaker 1: and then a few days later there's a different story

272
00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:20,800
Speaker 1: going around and bond traders are having a very difficult

273
00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:24,920
Speaker 1: time trying to figure out exactly what the RBA means.

274
00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:26,880
Speaker 1: And you can see there's a lot of flip flopping

275
00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:30,560
Speaker 1: in that market. So not an easy time to be

276
00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:34,000
Speaker 1: a bond trader in Australia. This is Bloomberg Daybreak Europe,
