Well 56 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 1: staying in Washington, Nathan, It's day two of congressional testimony 57 00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:09,840 Speaker 1: for Jay Powell. This morning, the FED share appears before 58 00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 1: the House Financial Services Committee. Yesterday, stocks plunged and treasury 59 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:17,399 Speaker 1: yields climbed after Powell signaled he was ready to take 60 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 1: rates to higher levels if inflation remains hot. Restoring price 61 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:25,119 Speaker 1: stability is essential to set the stage for achieving maximum 62 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 1: employment and stable prices over the longer run. The historical 63 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:33,560 Speaker 1: record cautions strongly against prematurely loosening policy. We will stay 64 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:36,360 Speaker 1: the course until the job is done, and investors are 65 00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 1: now betting Jay Powell and the FED will raise rates 66 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 1: by fifty basis points at their next meeting two weeks 67 00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 1: from today.

We spoke exclusively with the 70 00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:55,080 Speaker 1: founder of Citadel. You know, everyone has these very high 71 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 1: expectations that the FED can just work magic on inflation, 72 00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 1: and they don't have it that easy. And that's why 73 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 1: I really believe that the consistency of messaging is so 74 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 1: important because part of how the Fed gets the job 75 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:12,240 Speaker 1: done is the perception of the American public that they 76 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 1: can get the job done. Ken Griffin says controlling inflation 77 00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:18,839 Speaker 1: with rad hikes is like quote, having surgery with a 78 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:22,320 Speaker 1: dull knife. The Citadel CEO is also weighing in on 79 00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:25,239 Speaker 1: US politics.

New offense quitter Nathaniel Hackett, who was the 173 00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:36,199 Speaker 1: OC in green Bay for two of Rogers's MVP seasons. 174 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:38,679 Speaker 1: Packers gave their blessing to the visit for the Jets 175 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:41,120 Speaker 1: to land Rodgers. They need to work out a trade 176 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:43,400 Speaker 1: with green Bay. The next nine game winning Streakers over. 177 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:46,120 Speaker 1: Julius Randall said after a one twelve, one oh five 178 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:48,320 Speaker 1: loss at the Garden to Charlotte that they ran out 179 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:50,400 Speaker 1: of gash not only thirty percent. In the second. At 180 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:54,240 Speaker 1: the lowly Hornets, twenty five games under five hundred stormed 181 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:56,880 Speaker 1: back and one one one oh five. Randall shot just 182 00:09:56,880 --> 00:09:59,480 Speaker 1: five of seventeen knicks were again without the injured jail 183 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 1: and Fronts and J Barrett scored twenty seven. Nicks now 184 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:05,280 Speaker 1: go on a four game West Coast Ship next one 185 00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:08,760 Speaker 1: at Euston one, eighteen ninety six thirty points from Chel Bridges. 186 00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:11,400 Speaker 1: He's at thirty or more four of his last five games. 187 00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:13,360 Speaker 1: Islanders made it five of their last seven. They'd beat 188 00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:15,560 Speaker 1: Buffalo three to two. The Devil's blew A League lost 189 00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:19,439 Speaker 1: to Toronto four to three. Northeast Conference Final Merrymack by 190 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:22,720 Speaker 1: one over Fairlie Dickinson to Marymack new to Division one. 191 00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:26,640 Speaker 1: Not eligible for the NCAA Double A.

Good morning, I'm Nathan Hager. Billionaire 197 00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:51,080 Speaker 1: Ken Griffin says the setup for a recession in the 198 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:54,720 Speaker 1: US is unfolding. The founder of Citadel says the Federal 199 00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:57,440 Speaker 1: Reserve is doing what it can to tame inflation, but 200 00:10:57,480 --> 00:11:00,800 Speaker 1: he thinks raising interest rates has a limited impact on 201 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:04,679 Speaker 1: bringing price pressures down. In an exclusive interview with Bloomberg's 202 00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:08,160 Speaker 1: Philippe Marquez, Griffin disgusted inflation the Fed's rate hike path, 203 00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:11,160 Speaker 1: and he even waited, been too politics, Let's bring you 204 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:15,160 Speaker 1: part of that conversation now. So he created space today 205 00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:17,680 Speaker 1: to move by fifty basis points on the next hike. 206 00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:22,040 Speaker 1: You know they'd come into this year pretty clearly telegraphing 207 00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 1: that twenty five basis points was going to be the 208 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:27,720 Speaker 1: per meeting rate hike for the early part of the year, 209 00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 1: and then in some sense taking the foot off the 210 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:34,200 Speaker 1: break and seeing where the economy lands and if fairness 211 00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:39,880 Speaker 1: the FED the interest rate tool as a means of 212 00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:43,160 Speaker 1: controlling inflations, it's like a It's like having surgery with 213 00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:46,440 Speaker 1: a dull knife. It is a really difficult tool to 214 00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:49,600 Speaker 1: get the job done with because you hit the housing sector, 215 00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:52,800 Speaker 1: you hit the manufacturing sector, you hit parts the economy 216 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 1: that have a very high sensitivity to interest rates, and 217 00:11:56,559 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 1: you tend to leave the rest of the economy relatively untouched. 218 00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:03,360 Speaker 1: So the Fed doesn't have as much impact with their 219 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:08,000 Speaker 1: tool as you might hope. And although they've raise rates considerably, 220 00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:11,160 Speaker 1: it's not clear how long the leg effects are for 221 00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:14,320 Speaker 1: the impact, and once the impact starts to play out, 222 00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 1: how damaging that impact is. You're also one of the 223 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:22,680 Speaker 1: biggest political donation political donors in the country right now. 224 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:28,040 Speaker 1: And we interviewed JB. Pritzker Bloomberg recently and he said, 225 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:30,520 Speaker 1: and I'm quoting here, he was willing to spend whatever 226 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:34,680 Speaker 1: it takes to keep Republicans, namely ruined the scientis out 227 00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 1: of the White House. Are you willing to spend whatever 228 00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:46,760 Speaker 1: it takes you get here elected? Well, I would spend 229 00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:49,160 Speaker 1: whatever it takes make sure that JB. Pritsker's never in 230 00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:57,880 Speaker 1: the White House. So I will I will actually spend 231 00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:00,600 Speaker 1: whatever it takes to make sure he's never president. Now 232 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:02,600 Speaker 1: on the Republican side, you know, we're going to have 233 00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:05,960 Speaker 1: a really interesting primary ahead of us. I'm actually I'm 234 00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,520 Speaker 1: not going to talk about Ron de Santis because the 235 00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 1: state of Florida speaks for itself. Really, people here are 236 00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:14,520 Speaker 1: going to be very sad. Now, actually they won't be, 237 00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 1: because he won the state in the reelection for governor 238 00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:20,520 Speaker 1: by an absolute landslide. And I think that speaks to 239 00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:22,880 Speaker 1: what people want in their leadership. They want a government 240 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:25,280 Speaker 1: that works for them. They want a government that is 241 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:28,800 Speaker 1: thoughtful about minding their check book as taxpayers. They want 242 00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:31,880 Speaker 1: their children educated, they want their streets to be safe, 243 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 1: and they want they want their communities to prosper. I 244 00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:38,800 Speaker 1: think that's a simple message, and I don't think I 245 00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:40,600 Speaker 1: need to talk about Ron de Santis. I just need 246 00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 1: to look across the state and rise that message is 247 00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:46,080 Speaker 1: being delivered here in Florida. Now I'd like to see 248 00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:51,200 Speaker 1: that message across America again. It is absolutely heartbreaking to 249 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:54,600 Speaker 1: see where the progressive liberal agenda is being unleashed and 250 00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:57,360 Speaker 1: the damage it's doing to our cities and more fundamentally, 251 00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:00,440 Speaker 1: to our children. Do you think we don't to them? 252 00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:06,480 Speaker 1: I would love to see him run. That's the founder 253 00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 1: of Citadel and Citadel Securities, Ken Griffin, speaking exclusively with 254 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:12,920 Speaker 1: Bloomberg News from Palm Beach, Florida. You can hear the 255 00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:15,319 Speaker 1: full conversation. We have it up for you on Bloomberg 256 00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:18,760 Speaker 1: dot Com and on the Bloomberg terminal. Now. Ken Griffin's 257 00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 1: comments on the economy come after that hawkish turn we 258 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:24,960 Speaker 1: saw from FED chair J Powell after talking about a 259 00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:29,040 Speaker 1: disinflationary process taking hold at the last FED meeting, Powell 260 00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:32,480 Speaker 1: now says the newest economic data have come in stronger 261 00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:35,840 Speaker 1: than expected. I think nothing about the data suggests to 262 00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:38,800 Speaker 1: me that we've tightened too much. Indeed, it suggests that 263 00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:41,400 Speaker 1: we still have work to do. FED chair J Powell 264 00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:44,240 Speaker 1: speaking before the Senate Banking Committee. As we await day 265 00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:48,360 Speaker 1: two of testimony before the House Financial Services Committee, let's 266 00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:51,320 Speaker 1: bring in Sarah House, senior economist at Wells Fargo, to 267 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:53,800 Speaker 1: talk a little bit more on what we got yesterday 268 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:58,960 Speaker 1: from Chairman Powell. Really coming in hot on the hawkishness, Sarah, 269 00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:04,000 Speaker 1: Good morning, is a fifty basis point move from the Fed? 270 00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:08,440 Speaker 1: Now a done deal after we heard from Chairman Powell. No, 271 00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:12,320 Speaker 1: I think there's still some possibility at days at twenty five, 272 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:15,200 Speaker 1: and that's because we still have some pretty key data 273 00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:17,520 Speaker 1: to come in between now and the FED meetings. So 274 00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:20,760 Speaker 1: Pow emphasized that it would depend on the totality of 275 00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:23,520 Speaker 1: the data. Well, we get the non farm payrolls report 276 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:26,840 Speaker 1: here on Friday. I think just as important as that headline, 277 00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:28,760 Speaker 1: if not more so, is going to be what happens 278 00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:31,360 Speaker 1: with that average earlie earnings number, And then we get 279 00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:34,200 Speaker 1: another CPI report on Tuesday. So I think those are 280 00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:37,160 Speaker 1: both going to be really important and confirming whether we 281 00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:41,640 Speaker 1: are actually seeing a reacceleration in the labor market and inflation, 282 00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:47,160 Speaker 1: or if January was perhaps just exaggerated by various factors. Well, 283 00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:49,720 Speaker 1: I'm curious whether you think the tone that we got 284 00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 1: from Chairman Powell yesterday suggests any expectation from the Fed 285 00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:56,400 Speaker 1: about what that data is going to look like when 286 00:15:56,440 --> 00:16:00,360 Speaker 1: we get it later on this weekendto next week. Well, 287 00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:02,040 Speaker 1: I think just by the fact that he was so 288 00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:05,720 Speaker 1: clearly entertaining the possibility of a fifty basis point hike 289 00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:09,560 Speaker 1: suggests that he does think that it's going to remain 290 00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:12,200 Speaker 1: pretty strong. I think part of that stems from the 291 00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:15,840 Speaker 1: fact that it wasn't just the January data that was hot, 292 00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:19,000 Speaker 1: but I think more fundamentally was really the revisions we 293 00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:22,760 Speaker 1: saw towards towards the last few months of the year, 294 00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:26,520 Speaker 1: so both in terms of the hiring activity but also inflation. 295 00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:30,480 Speaker 1: That's really where we saw him emphasize the change in 296 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:33,200 Speaker 1: the data is that the trend does seem to be stronger, 297 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:37,360 Speaker 1: which would indicate that he's looking for another strong payrolls 298 00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:40,520 Speaker 1: and inflation report in the coming days. Well, what's your 299 00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:42,560 Speaker 1: expectation on the data we're going to get. First on 300 00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:46,320 Speaker 1: the job's report. Obviously we've seen weekly claims continue to 301 00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:49,080 Speaker 1: show tightness as well as the jolts openings. Well, what 302 00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:51,040 Speaker 1: do you think we're going to see in the payrolls 303 00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:55,560 Speaker 1: data when it comes out on Friday? So we're above consensus, 304 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:57,360 Speaker 1: So we're looking for an increase of two hundred and 305 00:16:57,360 --> 00:17:00,720 Speaker 1: seventy thousand job gains, and so that would clearly be 306 00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:02,920 Speaker 1: a step down from the five seventeen that we saw 307 00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:07,720 Speaker 1: in January, but you know, pretty pretty modest deceleration from 308 00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:09,960 Speaker 1: the trend we had seen prior to that. So in 309 00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:12,439 Speaker 1: the fourth quarter, we are looking at payroll's averageen just 310 00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:15,359 Speaker 1: two hundred and ninety thousand, so still a very very 311 00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:18,280 Speaker 1: strong number for average earlie earnings. We think that we 312 00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:21,560 Speaker 1: can get a zero point four percent increase. So I 313 00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:24,880 Speaker 1: think overall we're still likely to see the jobs data 314 00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:28,159 Speaker 1: on Friday indicate that to the extent the labor market 315 00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:33,919 Speaker 1: is cooling, it's only incrementally. But the Fed entertaining the 316 00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:38,000 Speaker 1: possibility of higher interest rates. Is there a risk to 317 00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:42,360 Speaker 1: the Fed's credibility if it does reverse itself and go 318 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:46,080 Speaker 1: in for a fifty basis point Hike. Well, I think 319 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:48,320 Speaker 1: the Fed's really tried to stress that it is going 320 00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:50,280 Speaker 1: to be nimble, it is going to be flexible, it 321 00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:53,840 Speaker 1: is not on a preset course to borrow its own phase. 322 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:57,479 Speaker 1: And so I think if the data warrants stepping up 323 00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:00,280 Speaker 1: the pace again, I think, if anything, that could good 324 00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:03,240 Speaker 1: strengthen their credibility in the fight against inflation. You know, 325 00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:05,680 Speaker 1: they really have the rug pulled out of them from 326 00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:08,520 Speaker 1: under them in terms of the data with those revision 327 00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:11,879 Speaker 1: So it's a very different picture than what we're looking 328 00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:15,040 Speaker 1: at on February first, when they made their last announcement 329 00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:17,800 Speaker 1: before let you go, Sarah. I know your team at 330 00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:20,679 Speaker 1: Wells Fargo for this International Women's Day has a report 331 00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:24,119 Speaker 1: out on the impact of single women and their effect 332 00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:27,320 Speaker 1: on the US economy. What did you find? Yeah, we 333 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:29,800 Speaker 1: found that single women are are really the fastest growing 334 00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:32,200 Speaker 1: group in terms of population. But I think more importantly 335 00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:35,120 Speaker 1: for the economy right now, is there the fastest growing 336 00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:38,439 Speaker 1: force in the labor force. So we've seen over the 337 00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:42,000 Speaker 1: past decade, never married women in particular from three times 338 00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:44,800 Speaker 1: faster than the overall labor force. So at a time 339 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:47,600 Speaker 1: when we're still at a very tight labor market. It's 340 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:51,000 Speaker 1: the lowest unemployment rate in fifty three years. Single women 341 00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:53,720 Speaker 1: and never married women in particular, are are really helping 342 00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:56,639 Speaker 1: to fill that void and shifting the composition of our 343 00:18:56,680 --> 00:19:01,359 Speaker 1: labor force.
