Jay, 8 00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:34,199 Speaker 4: what did you make or what are you making? How 9 00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:37,199 Speaker 4: are you thinking about your outlook? You've got a Republican 10 00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:41,360 Speaker 4: in the White House, Republican Senate, and likely Republican House. 11 00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:44,040 Speaker 3: How does that inform your outlook for markets? 12 00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:45,519 Speaker 5: Thanks, Paul, it's great to be on. 13 00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:46,200 Speaker 6: Well. 14 00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:49,680 Speaker 5: We're much more focused on the corporate talx rate than 15 00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:53,880 Speaker 5: almost anyone else they're politicians or investors, and the reason 16 00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:57,600 Speaker 5: for that is that it's really the key driver of growth, 17 00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:01,040 Speaker 5: not for just the companies, but also for the country 18 00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:04,000 Speaker 5: as a whole. And you can do the math very 19 00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:09,000 Speaker 5: simply by applying the a pro form a corporate tax 20 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:12,680 Speaker 5: rate to earnings and then giving some credit for higher 21 00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:15,760 Speaker 5: growth because growth is driven by reinvested earnings, so if 22 00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 5: there's more earnings, you grow faster. So we are coming 23 00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:21,319 Speaker 5: up with our seventy five hundred target. It's twenty three 24 00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:25,720 Speaker 5: times consensus earnings, so you can get on the terminal. 25 00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:28,160 Speaker 5: That's where we get it, and then adjusted for the 26 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:31,319 Speaker 5: new tax rate. And so it sounds perhaps a bit 27 00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:34,559 Speaker 5: nutty at seventy five hundred, but a lot of people 28 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:37,639 Speaker 5: thought our six thousand target for the SMP was netty 29 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:40,360 Speaker 5: this year, which doesn't look very nutty right now. Maybe 30 00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:43,360 Speaker 5: too conservative, but not nutty. And so we actually have 31 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 5: superior target technology. And or you have been quite accurate, 32 00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:49,400 Speaker 5: at least during the pandemic. 33 00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:52,600 Speaker 7: So Jay, you're talking that you're basically calling the market 34 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:55,040 Speaker 7: out here. You're saying their fear of rising inflation is 35 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 7: somewhat irrational. And I just want to kind of for 36 00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:58,760 Speaker 7: our audience put some numbers out there. One year one 37 00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:01,320 Speaker 7: year inflation swaps. That's what you know, the market is 38 00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:03,560 Speaker 7: projecting average inflation to be in one year's time. It's 39 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:05,920 Speaker 7: up twenty two basis points at two point seven percent. 40 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,040 Speaker 7: You've got you know, the US and one year inflation 41 00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:10,880 Speaker 7: swap alone at two point five percent five four percent. Last, 42 00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:12,440 Speaker 7: I mean, talk to us a little bit about your 43 00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:14,640 Speaker 7: expectations for inflation under a Trump regime. 44 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 5: Well, we think investors look at way too many data 45 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 5: points to predict inflation. If you look at ten data 46 00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:25,160 Speaker 5: points to predict inflation and only to matter, then you're 47 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 5: going to be wrong eighty percent of the time. So 48 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:29,320 Speaker 5: we look at just two things. And if you use 49 00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 5: this since World War Two, you had been the perfect 50 00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 5: inflation forecaster. Money supply and oil prices, both of which 51 00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:40,799 Speaker 5: are negative for the last year. And it's also important 52 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:44,920 Speaker 5: not to confuse so disinflationary. We're we're at risk of 53 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:47,799 Speaker 5: a disinflation right now in our model. In fact, if 54 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 5: you adjust the current CPI for shelter which is miscalculated, 55 00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:57,799 Speaker 5: a brand auto insurance and repair which is pandemic distorted, 56 00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:00,600 Speaker 5: we would have zero inflation. So we are much more 57 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:03,680 Speaker 5: bullish about inflation in the market. We think that'll be 58 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 5: reflected slowly, not at this CPI. We're projecting an inline 59 00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:10,360 Speaker 5: CPI at point three, but as we as it unfolds, 60 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:13,600 Speaker 5: we think it'll undershoot. We also think that the bond markets, 61 00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:17,120 Speaker 5: ahead of us itself, we're going to have rebalancing, So 62 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:20,680 Speaker 5: we're projecting and in fact and plicit, our target is 63 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:23,359 Speaker 5: more like a three fifty to four percent treasury. So 64 00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 5: if we're wrong about treasuries, then our target will be wrong. 65 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:28,079 Speaker 7: Yeah, I think I think the real I mean, for me, 66 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 7: the real risk to that is obviously if something blows 67 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 7: up in the Middle East, right, because if you're if 68 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,160 Speaker 7: you're right, it's money supply and its energy prices, oil 69 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:36,960 Speaker 7: prices specifically, you know, I think, you know, that's the 70 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 7: one kind of thing that might derail your seventy five hundred. 71 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:42,160 Speaker 5: You know, target on the S and P. Absolutely, Damien. 72 00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:45,600 Speaker 5: And that's a great point because I think everybody's obsessing 73 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:49,640 Speaker 5: about the you know, deporting criminals as being inflationary, which 74 00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 5: I've looked at my Warden textbooks and I've never found 75 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 5: that criminals were anti deflationary, but or the import taxes. 76 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 5: But I I'll give you a case that the Trump 77 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:05,800 Speaker 5: policy is inflationary, and that is it's not discussed so far. 78 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:07,800 Speaker 5: But I don't know if you noticed that in Wall 79 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 5: Street JOURNALI has said that Trump had been targeted for 80 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 5: assassination by Iranians. Well, there's a reason for that. He's 81 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 5: going to reimpose oil extra inflation restrictions, which is inflationary. 82 00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:21,600 Speaker 5: So that's the inflationary case. I would look at that, 83 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 5: But keep in mind that oil is extremely weak right now. 84 00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:27,800 Speaker 5: It's partly seasonal, so it's not clear that that wouldn't 85 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:29,599 Speaker 5: really be effective and dry prices up. But I would 86 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 5: watch that, and that is a real concern. 87 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 4: A twenty three multiple, that's not what I learned in 88 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 4: business school. I don't know where you went to business school, 89 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:39,680 Speaker 4: but my business twenty three times earnings. 90 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:43,680 Speaker 5: Well, there's two factors. One I already mentioned, which if 91 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:46,520 Speaker 5: we're wrong about the bond market, we're wrong about the multiple. 92 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,520 Speaker 5: But the other thing that is not in those numbers. 93 00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:51,920 Speaker 5: So I would say the risk, just like our six 94 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:54,600 Speaker 5: thousand target is to the upside, is there's a ton 95 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:58,160 Speaker 5: of dynamic effects that are not reflected there. So if 96 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 5: the US goes to a fifteen percent stated corporate tax rate, 97 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,360 Speaker 5: we're going to be a tax haven. Think of all 98 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 5: the capital. It's going to be like Ireland as grows 99 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:09,159 Speaker 5: at six percent, Like we're gonna have you know, phony 100 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 5: shell companies with employees here. So there's a lot of 101 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 5: dynamic deregulations not in our number. There's a lot of 102 00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:20,960 Speaker 5: positive when you have a pro business administration and Congress, 103 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,919 Speaker 5: there's a lot of dynamic factors that can't get captured, 104 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:26,839 Speaker 5: so we think that even twenty three, and also AI. 105 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:31,600 Speaker 5: During AI booms, you typically have overshoot on valuation, so 106 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:34,919 Speaker 5: we don't think twenty three is crazy by any means. 107 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:37,080 Speaker 7: Well, Paul, remember Ja may have gone the Wharton, but 108 00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,839 Speaker 7: he was really educated at the school of Steve alan 109 00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 7: Cone at SAC Capital back in the day. And Steve 110 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 7: likes to pay seven hundred billion dollars for baseball players 111 00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:47,040 Speaker 7: who formerly played for the New York yankis er may 112 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 7: still again be playing. 113 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:48,640 Speaker 3: For the New York Gakigs. 114 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:50,360 Speaker 7: I mean, Jay talked to us a little bit about 115 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:52,240 Speaker 7: you know, some of some of the things you're seeing here. 116 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 7: The dollar is rallying, I mean, copper prices are down, 117 00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:56,960 Speaker 7: iron ore is down. You know. Any read through from that. 118 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 5: Well, there continues to be concerned about China growth, you know, 119 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:06,080 Speaker 5: their key consumer of commodities. We're actually more bullish than 120 00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:09,320 Speaker 5: most about China. They do save forty five percent of 121 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 5: their GDP, which the IMF estimates every ten percent is 122 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 5: one point five percent of growth. They don't get that 123 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 5: because they've wasted on communist projects. But over time they 124 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:24,760 Speaker 5: will have pretty strong growth. So we're actually bullish on commodities. 125 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:27,039 Speaker 5: We do think oil prices will come off these lows, 126 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:29,360 Speaker 5: but I think that a lot of the weakness you're 127 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:32,760 Speaker 5: seeing there is, as you've indicated, the dollar, but also 128 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:34,440 Speaker 5: some concerns about China. 129 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:36,279 Speaker 3: Small caps can we play those years. 130 00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 5: We like small caps. We have a small camp funds cap. 131 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 5: What a lot of people miss about that is you're 132 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:46,880 Speaker 5: really mostly they are cheap, but you're getting a consolidation play. 133 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:51,719 Speaker 5: But also you're getting non tech exposure. So small caps 134 00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:53,760 Speaker 5: are only ten percent tech, so you're getting a lot 135 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:58,080 Speaker 5: of financials. We love financials, particularly investment banks. We in 136 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 5: fact we're carrying earnings estimates thirty percent above consensus for 137 00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:05,480 Speaker 5: Goldman Sachs. But there's a lot of small investment banks 138 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:08,880 Speaker 5: in the small cap index, so it's a way to 139 00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 5: bet on kind of the non tech sectors in the market. 140 00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 3: All right, very good, great stuff. As always. Jay Hafeld, 141 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:16,840 Speaker 3: he's to see you. 142 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 4: He's the founder Portfolio Management Infrastructure Capital Advisors. 143 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 2: You're listening to the Bloomberg Surveillance Podcast. Catch us live 144 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 2: weekday afternoons from seven to ten am. Easter Listen on 145 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:37,440 Speaker 2: Apple car Play and androut Auto with a Bloomberg Business 146 00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:39,480 Speaker 2: app or watch US Live on YouTube. 147 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:41,360 Speaker 3: Heidi Preboat Rudger joins US. 148 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:45,120 Speaker 4: She's the adjunct Senior Fellow on the Council for Foreign Relations. 149 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 3: She joins us HEID. 150 00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 4: When you woke up Wednesday morning, I've been asking this 151 00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:52,120 Speaker 4: question for a lot of market investors, how did maybe 152 00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 4: the election change their investment outlook? Maybe I'll ask it 153 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 4: to you in this context, how did it change perhaps 154 00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 4: the way you feel the US will conduct foreign policy 155 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:03,040 Speaker 4: over the next four years. 156 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:07,440 Speaker 8: So I think we're in for some some pretty significant 157 00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 8: changes in many areas of the of the world. We 158 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:17,680 Speaker 8: have a very complicated backdrop of conflicts both in the 159 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 8: Middle East, in obviously in Europe with Russia Ukraine, and 160 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 8: then this ongoing competition with China and potential for real, 161 00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:31,600 Speaker 8: real disruption in the South China Sea, and the question 162 00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:35,479 Speaker 8: of Taiwan comes up, obviously, So I think you know, 163 00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:39,079 Speaker 8: there are you know, we just heard that Marco Rubio 164 00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 8: is the likely nominee for Secretary of State. He is 165 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 8: not an isolationist, and he is one of the leading 166 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:53,440 Speaker 8: China Hawks. So I think for directionally that is that's 167 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:57,800 Speaker 8: going to be very important. He's he certainly knows the 168 00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:01,040 Speaker 8: State Department, and he has very strong wrong views, very 169 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 8: pro Israel, so that I think we're starting to see 170 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 8: what that direction of a Trump administration foreign policy is 171 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 8: going to look like. 172 00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:11,080 Speaker 7: Well, Heid, you took the words right out of my 173 00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:12,640 Speaker 7: mouth there. I mean, that's exactly what I want to 174 00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:14,440 Speaker 7: ask you. We know everybody's at China Hawk here. But 175 00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 7: my question is what does Mark Rubia, Mike Waltz and 176 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:19,680 Speaker 7: at least DEFINEX stand on other other places like Israel 177 00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:21,000 Speaker 7: for example, and Ukraine. 178 00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 1: So I think you have very strong supporters of Israel. 179 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:30,080 Speaker 8: I think you know that is that's without question with 180 00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:33,280 Speaker 8: both with the least Stephonic, with with Marco Rubio and 181 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:39,720 Speaker 8: with with Waltz. But you also have you have concerns, 182 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:44,640 Speaker 8: very very significant concerns about where the direction of the 183 00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 8: Ukraine Russia conflict is going and how how this administration, 184 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:54,040 Speaker 8: incoming Trump administration is going to is going. 185 00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:56,439 Speaker 1: To deal with with you. 186 00:09:56,400 --> 00:10:00,480 Speaker 8: Know, first and foremost, you know, incoming president and Trump 187 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:04,240 Speaker 8: has said he was going to end the conflict before 188 00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:08,680 Speaker 8: he actually gets into office. I'm not sure how that happens. 189 00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:11,000 Speaker 8: It's it's a very complicated world out there. You now 190 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:16,160 Speaker 8: have China, Iran, Russia, and North Korea all working together 191 00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:22,959 Speaker 8: in various ways to to to keep and to triumph 192 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:25,160 Speaker 8: in a number of those conflict areas that we just 193 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 8: talked about. So it's far more complicated than it was 194 00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:29,679 Speaker 8: when Trump was in office. 195 00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:31,720 Speaker 7: Before Heidi, you mentioned the Hermit State, and so we 196 00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:33,520 Speaker 7: need to go there. I mean, North Korea has fallen 197 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:35,840 Speaker 7: under the radar amidst what's going on, you know, more 198 00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 7: broadly speaking, in the Middle East, in Eastern Europe, and 199 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:40,360 Speaker 7: you know now we have North Korean troops on the 200 00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:43,920 Speaker 7: ground in Ukraine. I mean, talk to us a little 201 00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:46,440 Speaker 7: bit about what that means. Has that is that a 202 00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:48,440 Speaker 7: form of escalation? Does the US? 203 00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:49,160 Speaker 5: Does? You know? 204 00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:50,760 Speaker 7: President left Trump needs to respond to that. 205 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:53,119 Speaker 1: So it is very concerning. 206 00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:55,760 Speaker 8: I don't think that it's flown under the radar at 207 00:10:55,800 --> 00:11:00,920 Speaker 8: all with the national security community, and there there's very 208 00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 8: you there's limited visibility into what deals were done between 209 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:09,240 Speaker 8: Russia and North Korea to actually get them to send 210 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:16,840 Speaker 8: their their troops to UH into into this conflict. And 211 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:20,439 Speaker 8: as as you know, there's you know, there are tens 212 00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:24,440 Speaker 8: of thousands of both Russian and with the addition of 213 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:29,600 Speaker 8: North Korean troops actually on the on the front with 214 00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:35,640 Speaker 8: with combat ready, and Ukraine is one one area where 215 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:38,920 Speaker 8: I think you probably will see a significant change with 216 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:41,960 Speaker 8: Trump and his new national security team because they will 217 00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:47,480 Speaker 8: focus mostly on on Asia and on China and uh. 218 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:50,920 Speaker 8: You know, we've all heard about the calls that the 219 00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:54,920 Speaker 8: very that that Trump himself and uh and his close 220 00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:58,200 Speaker 8: team has had with President Putin, So I think you 221 00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:00,319 Speaker 8: know there there there are a lot of big Russian 222 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:02,679 Speaker 8: marks out there, but the world is far more complicated. 223 00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:05,520 Speaker 1: North Korea is a really is a big. 224 00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:11,959 Speaker 8: Risk that that I think, particularly particularly given its proximity 225 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 8: to to to other two Asian allies, that we really 226 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 8: need to start watching very closely. 227 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:20,320 Speaker 3: Heidi. 228 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:24,200 Speaker 4: The Middle East another very difficult and fluid situation there. 229 00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:30,000 Speaker 4: You mentioned that President Trump and UH Marco Rubio pro Israel. 230 00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:34,040 Speaker 4: How do you envision that playing out US policy there, 231 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:35,839 Speaker 4: because it doesn't seem like Israel has been listening to 232 00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:37,000 Speaker 4: the US over the past two. 233 00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:44,720 Speaker 8: Years, So you know, it's it's Minettnya who is is 234 00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:49,560 Speaker 8: is obviously complicated and and has and has a huge 235 00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:56,760 Speaker 8: momentum behind him in actually bringing bringing about a complete 236 00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 8: colgering of of around proxies in the region, including Hamas, 237 00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:07,199 Speaker 8: Hizbola and and and I think you know, and the 238 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:12,120 Speaker 8: hutis in Yemen, and so this is this becomes you know, 239 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:17,040 Speaker 8: you have strong alignment with the incoming team to the 240 00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:22,800 Speaker 8: Trump administration vis a vis Iran and limiting, curtailing and 241 00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 8: completely you know, cutting the legs out of Iran's ability 242 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:32,040 Speaker 8: to actually to be an active, strong, active. 243 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:37,480 Speaker 1: Catalyst and a negative catalyst in the region. 244 00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:40,480 Speaker 7: Heidi, thirty seconds or last, really quick, what's your thoughts 245 00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:41,960 Speaker 7: on what's going on in Germany here at the end 246 00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:45,439 Speaker 7: of all up Schultz, Friedrich Mertz, I mean, what role 247 00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 7: do you think the US and President Trump is going 248 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:49,360 Speaker 7: to play in that election? 249 00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 8: So, I mean, obviously what's happening in Germany is it's 250 00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:59,440 Speaker 8: it's simultaneous with a massive change in power in the US. 251 00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:02,520 Speaker 1: And I do think that how. 252 00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 8: Europe views its ability to ramp up its defense and 253 00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:11,440 Speaker 8: security when you have Trump coming in and really a 254 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,360 Speaker 8: not a fan of Europe, be not a fan of 255 00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 8: Germany and not necessarily willing to contribue to continue to 256 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:25,360 Speaker 8: fund the operations in Ukraine. So Europe needs money, Germany 257 00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:28,920 Speaker 8: needs money. The person their business model is broken, amongst 258 00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:32,480 Speaker 8: other things. But I do think this early election, the 259 00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:36,160 Speaker 8: fact that you were likely to see Mertz and some 260 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:40,840 Speaker 8: kind of a coalition with the Greens come about, is 261 00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:43,120 Speaker 8: very much worth paying attention to. 262 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:43,920 Speaker 3: Heidi. 263 00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:46,160 Speaker 4: Thank you so much for your time. We always appreciate 264 00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 4: getting some of your thoughts. 265 00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:48,880 Speaker 3: Heidi creaeboat Rehticker. 266 00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:52,840 Speaker 4: She's an adjunct Senior Fellow at the Council on Foreign Relationship. 267 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:57,200 Speaker 2: This is the Bloomberg Surveillance Podcast.

He's president of Shrie Kumar Global Strategy 273 00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:16,520 Speaker 4: and Damian. You'll appreciate this, Santa. He's been all over 274 00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:20,480 Speaker 4: the place. But how about this Drexel Burnham Lumpy. 275 00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:22,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, that is just good. 276 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 5: All this. 277 00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:27,720 Speaker 4: We're talking serious Wall Street creator Peabody. The kids don't 278 00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:30,240 Speaker 4: know those names are, but we do. Shre, thanks so 279 00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 4: much for joining us here. The world's changed in the 280 00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:38,640 Speaker 4: last seven days. Here, Sri, give us your thirty thousand 281 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:40,960 Speaker 4: foot view on the fact that we're going to have 282 00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:43,840 Speaker 4: a new Republican president, We're gonna have a Republican Senate 283 00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:47,840 Speaker 4: and potentially even Republican House of Representative as well. How's 284 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:52,960 Speaker 4: that changed your view of these markets. 285 00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:54,720 Speaker 6: Paul, good to be with you and Damian. I think 286 00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:57,040 Speaker 6: the change happened. We didn't know who was going to 287 00:15:57,080 --> 00:16:00,800 Speaker 6: win last Tuesday, but now we have the victory, a 288 00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:04,400 Speaker 6: complete sweep by the Republicans, and it looks like the 289 00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 6: House also will go their way. It is both good 290 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:10,600 Speaker 6: and bad. The good part about it is it gives 291 00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:15,040 Speaker 6: you a clearer indication as to which economic policies the 292 00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:19,000 Speaker 6: president elect it would like to follow in his administration. 293 00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 6: The uncertainty is how the markets will react. While the 294 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:26,840 Speaker 6: equities have gone up sharply, there is more of a 295 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:30,000 Speaker 6: doubt on the bond side, and you can see the 296 00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:33,880 Speaker 6: yields going up, and the mortgage rate is likely to 297 00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:37,880 Speaker 6: increase as well because of the expectation that the fiscal 298 00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:41,440 Speaker 6: deficit is not going to be controlled with the measures 299 00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:45,120 Speaker 6: that Donald Trump promised before the elections. That I think 300 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:49,200 Speaker 6: is the big risk that I think is the big change, Paul, 301 00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 6: in terms of what has happened, and look at the dollar. 302 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:56,480 Speaker 6: The dollar has strengthened so much, and that is just 303 00:16:56,560 --> 00:17:00,040 Speaker 6: the opposite of what Trump wanted. He has always said 304 00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 6: in his first administration he likes a cheap dollar, he 305 00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:07,480 Speaker 6: wants low interest rates. And both of them I think 306 00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:11,600 Speaker 6: are at risk now with a stronger dollar and potentially 307 00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:13,879 Speaker 6: higher interest rates in the United States. 308 00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:16,560 Speaker 7: So should we lift game this out here Beijing? Beijing, 309 00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:18,720 Speaker 7: are they going to depreciate the yuan relative to the 310 00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 7: dollar if these tariffs go through. I mean that would 311 00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:21,720 Speaker 7: be the playbook. 312 00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:25,600 Speaker 6: Right, that would be the playbook. But they can try 313 00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:28,240 Speaker 6: and do that Demien in terms of what that would 314 00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:31,639 Speaker 6: achieve for them in terms of the trade side. But 315 00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:34,560 Speaker 6: if indeed the Trump is going to go ahead with 316 00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:38,960 Speaker 6: a sixty percent import tariff on Chinese products, any extent 317 00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:42,320 Speaker 6: of depreciation of the renmin byuan is not going to 318 00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:46,680 Speaker 6: offset it. The big problem is that the tariffs are 319 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:49,560 Speaker 6: going to be more important than the exchange rate as 320 00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:53,240 Speaker 6: far as China is concerned. From a Trump point of view, 321 00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:56,800 Speaker 6: he has to look and see what the tariff increase 322 00:17:56,840 --> 00:18:00,679 Speaker 6: would do to the United States. I am a believer 323 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:04,640 Speaker 6: that tariffs are bad. They will push up inflation rate. 324 00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:08,520 Speaker 6: And as a student of history, I looked at the 325 00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:14,879 Speaker 6: smooth Hawley tariff of June nineteen thirty. It was done 326 00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:17,640 Speaker 6: by President Herbert hoo worked with a very good intention. 327 00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:21,479 Speaker 6: We wanted to protect American farmers, we wanted to protect 328 00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:26,600 Speaker 6: American trade. Instead, it gave rise to retaliation by trade partners, 329 00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:30,760 Speaker 6: and that, in turn mays made the depression deeper and 330 00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:34,960 Speaker 6: more widespread than before. So that's the risk I think 331 00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:38,560 Speaker 6: Trump runs, and he needs to be very careful with 332 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:39,920 Speaker 6: the tariff moves. 333 00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:43,200 Speaker 7: Well, sir, you mentioned nineteen thirty, and I'll pull out 334 00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:45,399 Speaker 7: my regime model and you know, quote ed your Denny 335 00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:47,040 Speaker 7: here and talk about the Roaring twenties. A lot of 336 00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:49,800 Speaker 7: people are making comparisons to this environment and that which 337 00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:53,560 Speaker 7: existed in the precursor to the Great Depression. Talk to 338 00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:54,840 Speaker 7: us a little bit about that. Do you see any 339 00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:55,960 Speaker 7: similarities there. 340 00:18:57,240 --> 00:19:00,159 Speaker 6: That is a similarity in the sense that before the 341 00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:04,360 Speaker 6: nineteen twenty nine thrash came, we had the big run 342 00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:08,159 Speaker 6: up during the nineteen twenties, and that was because of 343 00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:12,520 Speaker 6: policies which were expansionary. The Federal Reserve had been set 344 00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:16,959 Speaker 6: up in nineteen thirteen there was also an expectation that 345 00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:20,639 Speaker 6: things were going very well and you had a free 346 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 6: capitalist run taking place in the nineteen twenties. But just 347 00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:28,440 Speaker 6: as you say that it's the darkest before dawn, it's 348 00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:32,119 Speaker 6: also the brightest before night. And that's what you have 349 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:36,360 Speaker 6: to be concerned about. That, as you had the Roaring twenties, 350 00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:40,560 Speaker 6: the nineteen thirties were nothing compared with a decade earlier, 351 00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:44,200 Speaker 6: and you want to prevent a repeat of that. And 352 00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:47,800 Speaker 6: that's why it behooves us to study the nineteen twenties 353 00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:52,159 Speaker 6: history and to prevent that from being repeated in the 354 00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:53,159 Speaker 6: twenty twenties. 355 00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:59,160 Speaker 4: Shre what's kind of your leading I guess investment thought 356 00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:01,000 Speaker 4: these days when you talk to your clients, because a 357 00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:03,240 Speaker 4: lot has changed in the last week, what's kind of 358 00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:06,160 Speaker 4: a theme you're going with with your clients these days? 359 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:11,560 Speaker 6: I say two things. One, equities are very highly valued. 360 00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:16,800 Speaker 6: I don't pick securities, Paul, but I say to investors' clients, 361 00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:20,720 Speaker 6: be very careful what you pick, because you want to 362 00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:23,919 Speaker 6: be sure that the security characteristics are good enough for 363 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:28,680 Speaker 6: you to be very highly invested in equities. That's one second. 364 00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:32,840 Speaker 6: On the fixed income side, I say to them that 365 00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:36,080 Speaker 6: you have a situation when bond yields could increase and 366 00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:39,520 Speaker 6: you could have a loss. And that's the case. You 367 00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:42,920 Speaker 6: want to reduce the duration of your fixed income presence. 368 00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:47,400 Speaker 6: Whether you are in US treasuries, high grade corporate bonds, 369 00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:50,560 Speaker 6: or you are in municipal bonds, you want to reduce it. 370 00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:53,600 Speaker 6: So that's the second one. And if you want to 371 00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,760 Speaker 6: add a third, I would say the sixty to forty 372 00:20:57,119 --> 00:21:01,159 Speaker 6: traditional portfolio no longer holds, and you want to have 373 00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:05,600 Speaker 6: more alternatives, global, real estate, other areas to reduce the 374 00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:10,440 Speaker 6: amount of risk in your total portfolio. 375 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:13,080 Speaker 7: So three US treasure curves have flattened off the back 376 00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:16,240 Speaker 7: of the move inflation and growth expectations as built intoenomenal 377 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:19,080 Speaker 7: US treasure yields have risen. Talk to us a little 378 00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:22,120 Speaker 7: bit about your expectations regarding US monetary policy and the Fed. 379 00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:24,560 Speaker 7: I mean, what are your thoughts on December and as 380 00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:25,640 Speaker 7: we look ahead into next year. 381 00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:31,720 Speaker 6: I am to make my bias very clear. I said 382 00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:34,800 Speaker 6: the September eighteenth, the Fed should not have cut interests 383 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:38,320 Speaker 6: at all, let alone a fifty basis cop point cut. 384 00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:41,199 Speaker 6: I did not want to reduce it, and I've written 385 00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:43,840 Speaker 6: about it and once that happened. I'm not at all 386 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:47,840 Speaker 6: surprised that long dated yields have risen as a result 387 00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:51,080 Speaker 6: of that, and then the FED cut interest rates again 388 00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:55,560 Speaker 6: last week. The expectation is that December there will be 389 00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:59,000 Speaker 6: a cut unless later this week we find out the 390 00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:03,720 Speaker 6: consumer price in is way out of control anything manageable. 391 00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:06,560 Speaker 6: I think Powell and his colleagues are going to cut 392 00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:10,240 Speaker 6: rates again in December, and that in turn would be 393 00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:15,480 Speaker 6: welcomed by the President elect as something positive. The negative 394 00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:18,359 Speaker 6: is going to come for FED policy, I believe in 395 00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:22,439 Speaker 6: twenty twenty five. And I again I am assuming that 396 00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:25,639 Speaker 6: Powell will continue to remain in office until May twenty 397 00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:29,600 Speaker 6: twenty six. That will not be a danger to his position. 398 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:33,320 Speaker 6: He's going to lead the FED, and if that's the case, 399 00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:36,159 Speaker 6: twenty twenty six, he has to deal with the fact 400 00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:40,439 Speaker 6: that with inflationary expectations up because he has put so 401 00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:44,040 Speaker 6: much of cash into consumer pockets, that he has to 402 00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:47,840 Speaker 6: deal with higher long term yields, and how he is 403 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:51,439 Speaker 6: going to monitory policy cuts and rates may come to 404 00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:55,160 Speaker 6: an end or even necessitate an increase in interest rates 405 00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:56,480 Speaker 6: during twenty twenty five. 406 00:22:57,560 --> 00:23:00,600 Speaker 4: Sure, just finally we've seen a big move hire in 407 00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:02,080 Speaker 4: the US dollar. 408 00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:04,320 Speaker 3: How much farther do you think that has to go? 409 00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:09,000 Speaker 6: The US dollar could go up a lot further depending 410 00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:13,520 Speaker 6: on Trump policies. Let me give you an example. If 411 00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:16,399 Speaker 6: he does go through with the campaign promise of a 412 00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:20,240 Speaker 6: ten percent cariff on all countries and a sixty percent 413 00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:25,800 Speaker 6: cariff on the sixty percent cadiff on China, expect the 414 00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:31,280 Speaker 6: dollar to strengthen massively. For example, we are below a 415 00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:35,840 Speaker 6: dollar seven cents this week, the lowest since June. I 416 00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:39,960 Speaker 6: can see the dollar going below parity, meaning less than 417 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:43,040 Speaker 6: one dollar to buy one euro. If you are going 418 00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:46,159 Speaker 6: to be imposing a cariiff on all the countries, that's 419 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:50,040 Speaker 6: how serious it is. And if Prump wants a week 420 00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:53,560 Speaker 6: dollar as well as tariffs, he cannot have both of them. 421 00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:54,439 Speaker 6: He has to choose. 422 00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 4: Very good Shre Thank you so much for joining us there. 423 00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:00,600 Speaker 4: Always appreciate getting a few minutes of your time. 424 00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:01,240 Speaker 3: Street Kumar. 425 00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:05,480 Speaker 4: He is a president Upstreet Kumar Global Strategies out there 426 00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:07,120 Speaker 4: in Los Angeles. 427 00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:17,200 Speaker 2: This is the Bloomberg Surveillance Podcast.

You go online, 437 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:41,119 Speaker 9: you do a little click, and it's and it's done. 438 00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:43,719 Speaker 9: So now the Wall Street Journal is calling this like 439 00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 9: the new streaming habit. It's the subscription pause. So people 440 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:50,679 Speaker 9: are canceling and then coming back and maybe if you know, 441 00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:53,119 Speaker 9: because they had a show that ended, so then they 442 00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:54,879 Speaker 9: cancel it and then they wait for the next season 443 00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:56,600 Speaker 9: to start and they come back and do it. So 444 00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:59,960 Speaker 9: it's really showing how streaming services really need to deliver 445 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:03,680 Speaker 9: these hit shows, films, live events. It's showing this is 446 00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:05,239 Speaker 9: why the pressure is on for them to do this 447 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:07,520 Speaker 9: so they can keep getting those customers to come back 448 00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:10,119 Speaker 9: so quick. Numbers from Antenna It says the monthly medium 449 00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:14,040 Speaker 9: percentage of premium streaming videoscribers who rejoined the same service 450 00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:17,200 Speaker 9: they canceled within the private prior year thirty four point 451 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:19,760 Speaker 9: two percent. In the first nine months of twenty twenty four, 452 00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:21,879 Speaker 9: and that was up from twenty nine point eight percent 453 00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:24,560 Speaker 9: and twenty twenty two. So I don't know if you've 454 00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:27,520 Speaker 9: done the whole pause okay situation I've been looking for. 455 00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:30,320 Speaker 4: I'm a huge fan of Yellowstone, Okay, so I thought 456 00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:33,240 Speaker 4: I could just go on paramounts Paramount create is the 457 00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:36,080 Speaker 4: does the yelsam?

I actually look when I'm in the plane 510 00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:37,040 Speaker 10: to make sure that the bags which are still the. 511 00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:38,080 Speaker 3: Terminal on the plane. 512 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:39,520 Speaker 7: I mean you have to, how do you not. I 513 00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:41,080 Speaker 7: mean this has happened to me many times, by the way, 514 00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:43,399 Speaker 7: where I've lost my luggage, So I mean I'm scarred 515 00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:43,600 Speaker 7: for it. 516 00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:45,440 Speaker 3: I checked the bag of luggage in thirty years. 517 00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:46,879 Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean, I'll throw it on. 518 00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:47,320 Speaker 5: I'll throw it. 519 00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:49,280 Speaker 7: My daughter's shoe is just on the way to school, 520 00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:50,960 Speaker 7: to see where she's going. I mean I do what 521 00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:52,000 Speaker 7: I use those air top it. 522 00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:52,800 Speaker 9: In your wife's bag. 523 00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:55,120 Speaker 1: Okay, you said that. 524 00:27:56,920 --> 00:27:57,400 Speaker 3: And it does. 525 00:27:57,520 --> 00:28:00,879 Speaker 9: It could be helpful, It could be helpful. Okay. So 526 00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:03,840 Speaker 9: Chipotle shareholders, this is because of the skipping on the 527 00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:06,679 Speaker 9: portion sizes. Remember that whole fiasco that happened. Okay, So 528 00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:10,000 Speaker 9: shareholders now suing the company because they're saying the stock 529 00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:13,200 Speaker 9: was affected because they weren't so open about how many 530 00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 9: places this was affecting. So they're saying it forced them 531 00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:19,159 Speaker 9: to spend more on ingredients, hurt the stock price. So 532 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:22,240 Speaker 9: they're saying they realize the claims because people began complaining 533 00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 9: on social media, posting about the skimping on the the 534 00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:29,359 Speaker 9: the portion sizes. So according to the complaint, I mean, 535 00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:30,320 Speaker 9: this is what's happening. 536 00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:32,359 Speaker 3: So all right, here's what. 537 00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:38,080 Speaker 4: I'm a Chipotle. Yeah, what's today? What's today? Tomorrow's in 538 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:42,080 Speaker 4: my Chipotle day? I usually get three beef hard tacos 539 00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:46,560 Speaker 4: with chicken. Okay, and then they got crazy and started 540 00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:49,160 Speaker 4: overfilling them because of the social media backlash. I think 541 00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:52,280 Speaker 4: they got the word came down. We're getting a lot 542 00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:55,320 Speaker 4: of grief for underfilling our tagos and whatever. 543 00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:58,400 Speaker 3: Overfill them now. So now I only get two verses three. 544 00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:02,320 Speaker 7: Where maybe you remember that where I mean we there again. 545 00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:04,080 Speaker 7: I mean, this is when these where's the beef moment 546 00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:04,640 Speaker 7: all over again? 547 00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:07,040 Speaker 3: I'd tell you it's good stuff. 548 00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:09,880 Speaker 9: I always thought that they overfilled it because you get 549 00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:13,840 Speaker 9: the bowl and it's like weighs like ten pounds. But okay, 550 00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:16,360 Speaker 9: but yeah, so now there there's a lawsuit in the work, 551 00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:19,560 Speaker 9: so they got a lot going on. Lastly, if I 552 00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:21,240 Speaker 9: don't know if you ever tried the twenty three and 553 00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:25,080 Speaker 9: meters like those DNA testing things, So if you ever have, 554 00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:27,480 Speaker 9: you know, the company's been struggling right So now it's 555 00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:29,760 Speaker 9: saying it's laying off forty percent off its workforce, more 556 00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:32,800 Speaker 9: than two hundred people.
