0:02:22.400 --> 0:02:26.440
<v Speaker 1>US Economist at RBC Capital Markets. As we march closer

0:02:26.480 --> 0:02:30.280
<v Speaker 1>to an August payrolls report and the December September decision

0:02:30.639 --> 0:02:33.840
<v Speaker 1>from the Federal Open Markets Committee, Tom, good morning. We

0:02:33.919 --> 0:02:37.440
<v Speaker 1>have all these signs, some signs at least that inflation

0:02:37.600 --> 0:02:40.360
<v Speaker 1>is easing a bit. At the same time, we have

0:02:40.560 --> 0:02:44.960
<v Speaker 1>further signs of a continued tight labor market. What's the

0:02:45.040 --> 0:02:48.240
<v Speaker 1>challenge for the Fed? Well, good morning, Good to be

0:02:48.280 --> 0:02:51.000
<v Speaker 1>with you as always. Look, I think that for for

0:02:51.040 --> 0:02:53.960
<v Speaker 1>the Fed, I I think it's not um, it's not

0:02:54.040 --> 0:02:57.240
<v Speaker 1>having the blinders on, right. I mean, you know, let's

0:02:57.280 --> 0:03:01.520
<v Speaker 1>be honest, they had them on last year. Um they um,

0:03:01.639 --> 0:03:06.120
<v Speaker 1>they really only focused on labor at the expense of inflation. Um,

0:03:07.080 --> 0:03:09.400
<v Speaker 1>I hope that you know it's not This is not

0:03:09.800 --> 0:03:12.560
<v Speaker 1>a replay of of last year, where this year there

0:03:12.560 --> 0:03:15.680
<v Speaker 1>would be more focused on um inflation at the expense

0:03:15.720 --> 0:03:17.520
<v Speaker 1>of of labor. I mean, one of the great things

0:03:17.560 --> 0:03:19.560
<v Speaker 1>about the FED is that they actually do have a

0:03:19.600 --> 0:03:21.760
<v Speaker 1>dual mandate, right. I mean, it's sort of a unique

0:03:21.800 --> 0:03:25.000
<v Speaker 1>thing in in among central banks. And I think that

0:03:25.080 --> 0:03:28.920
<v Speaker 1>really gives them so much latitude. And make no mistake,

0:03:29.200 --> 0:03:31.520
<v Speaker 1>I mean, right now, it is supposed to be about inflation.

0:03:31.560 --> 0:03:35.040
<v Speaker 1>I think Pale actually did a great job, um during

0:03:35.840 --> 0:03:40.200
<v Speaker 1>his his Jackson Hole uh speech, where you know, he

0:03:40.280 --> 0:03:42.720
<v Speaker 1>said all the right things. Right, he's supposed to say,

0:03:43.280 --> 0:03:45.880
<v Speaker 1>it's all about inflation right now that you know, we're

0:03:45.880 --> 0:03:49.120
<v Speaker 1>going to keep at it until inflation starts to improve,

0:03:49.160 --> 0:03:51.240
<v Speaker 1>and etcetera, etcetera. He was he was supposed to say

0:03:51.240 --> 0:03:54.080
<v Speaker 1>all those things. In fact, I think for people waiting

0:03:54.080 --> 0:03:57.120
<v Speaker 1>for him to say something different than that, Um, you know,

0:03:57.360 --> 0:03:58.880
<v Speaker 1>he's gonna be the last one to say it, right,

0:03:58.880 --> 0:04:00.680
<v Speaker 1>He's gonna say it when it's app is to everyone.

0:04:01.080 --> 0:04:04.040
<v Speaker 1>Um and and and I'm sympathetic to that. Um. But

0:04:04.480 --> 0:04:07.280
<v Speaker 1>having said all of that, you know, we have the

0:04:07.320 --> 0:04:10.640
<v Speaker 1>luxury right as economist and analyst and strategists, of of

0:04:10.720 --> 0:04:12.440
<v Speaker 1>being able to sort of look a little further out

0:04:12.560 --> 0:04:15.400
<v Speaker 1>and say, hey, look, we think that inflation is probably

0:04:15.400 --> 0:04:17.800
<v Speaker 1>going to slow down. UM. We think labor backdrop is

0:04:17.839 --> 0:04:20.320
<v Speaker 1>going to slow down. Um. And as a result, you know,

0:04:20.360 --> 0:04:23.159
<v Speaker 1>we don't see this hiking cycle going on from meaningfully,

0:04:23.200 --> 0:04:25.920
<v Speaker 1>meaningfully longer. He can't say that, So I think everyone

0:04:25.960 --> 0:04:29.120
<v Speaker 1>should just sort of set up their expectations correctly around

0:04:29.520 --> 0:04:31.240
<v Speaker 1>what he, you know, sort of will and will not

0:04:31.360 --> 0:04:35.159
<v Speaker 1>say um. And what he will continue to say is that, um,

0:04:35.200 --> 0:04:36.560
<v Speaker 1>there's a lot of a lot of work to do.

0:04:37.080 --> 0:04:39.039
<v Speaker 1>Given what he has said, what does that mean that

0:04:39.080 --> 0:04:41.320
<v Speaker 1>the Fed is going to do when they come down

0:04:41.320 --> 0:04:43.520
<v Speaker 1>to that decision in September? Is it too soon to

0:04:43.560 --> 0:04:45.120
<v Speaker 1>call it? Given all the rest of the data the

0:04:45.160 --> 0:04:48.760
<v Speaker 1>needs to come down between that and now, nothing is

0:04:48.800 --> 0:04:52.200
<v Speaker 1>ever too soon to call. So I would say his, Look, Look,

0:04:52.200 --> 0:04:53.880
<v Speaker 1>what I would say is right now, our expectations that

0:04:53.880 --> 0:04:56.000
<v Speaker 1>they're going to do fifty Um, if you get a

0:04:56.000 --> 0:04:59.000
<v Speaker 1>blowout payroll report, if you get a blowout c P I,

0:04:59.080 --> 0:05:01.760
<v Speaker 1>then yes, I think that you know, the the the

0:05:01.800 --> 0:05:04.880
<v Speaker 1>odds or the risk that they do seventy five will certainly, um,

0:05:05.120 --> 0:05:08.000
<v Speaker 1>um grow. But it's it's funny. You know, the FED

0:05:08.440 --> 0:05:11.760
<v Speaker 1>is fond of saying that their data dependent. UM, I

0:05:11.800 --> 0:05:14.640
<v Speaker 1>think that, you know, this might be a very hyper

0:05:16.160 --> 0:05:19.760
<v Speaker 1>attentive data dependency period right right here, right now. I

0:05:19.760 --> 0:05:21.840
<v Speaker 1>think I think two reports are really going to dictate.

0:05:22.880 --> 0:05:24.799
<v Speaker 1>Do you think we're going to get a blowout payrolls

0:05:25.040 --> 0:05:27.080
<v Speaker 1>on Friday? You know, I do. I do think it

0:05:27.080 --> 0:05:28.960
<v Speaker 1>could be a pretty decent one. Actually, Um, I think

0:05:29.000 --> 0:05:31.040
<v Speaker 1>consensus is three hundred on left. I look at my

0:05:31.040 --> 0:05:33.599
<v Speaker 1>Bloomberg screen. Um, you know, we we think you could

0:05:33.600 --> 0:05:36.320
<v Speaker 1>easily have a four handle um on on payrolls. So

0:05:36.640 --> 0:05:38.520
<v Speaker 1>you know, all things are relative to expectations. It would

0:05:38.520 --> 0:05:40.599
<v Speaker 1>obviously be quite a bit slower versus the you know

0:05:40.640 --> 0:05:43.240
<v Speaker 1>four hundred in near thirty thousand jobs that we printed

0:05:43.800 --> 0:05:46.560
<v Speaker 1>last month. Um, but you know, all things are almost

0:05:46.560 --> 0:05:48.960
<v Speaker 1>always relative to expectations. So I think the I think

0:05:49.000 --> 0:05:51.800
<v Speaker 1>the consensus a little light right here. And one about wages.

0:05:51.839 --> 0:05:53.720
<v Speaker 1>I mean that's a big concern for the FED as well,

0:05:53.720 --> 0:05:56.039
<v Speaker 1>whether we could be heading into a wage price spiral

0:05:56.080 --> 0:05:59.279
<v Speaker 1>that feeds into inflation expectations. Yeah, it's a it's a

0:05:59.279 --> 0:06:01.280
<v Speaker 1>totally great question and a fair one. And and so

0:06:01.400 --> 0:06:03.599
<v Speaker 1>what I would say is, look, um, I think that

0:06:03.600 --> 0:06:06.799
<v Speaker 1>there's countless ways of looking at inflation. UM, there's countless

0:06:06.800 --> 0:06:10.680
<v Speaker 1>ways of calculating it, and there's countless literally measures of inflation.

0:06:10.720 --> 0:06:12.839
<v Speaker 1>I think the best measure of inflation right now is

0:06:12.880 --> 0:06:16.320
<v Speaker 1>average weekly earnings is better than average hourly earnings. Right

0:06:16.360 --> 0:06:19.000
<v Speaker 1>average only earnings are an incomplete measure. Average weekly earnings

0:06:19.000 --> 0:06:21.800
<v Speaker 1>include hours UM. And the thing that I think some

0:06:21.800 --> 0:06:25.320
<v Speaker 1>people are missing is that hours are actually slowing um.

0:06:25.480 --> 0:06:28.479
<v Speaker 1>And so average weekly earnings as a result, have have

0:06:28.600 --> 0:06:31.200
<v Speaker 1>also slowed. Uh. And if you look at it on

0:06:31.240 --> 0:06:33.800
<v Speaker 1>a six months annualized basis, which which you know, we

0:06:33.839 --> 0:06:36.240
<v Speaker 1>think is probably the fairest way of of looking at it,

0:06:36.520 --> 0:06:39.680
<v Speaker 1>it's slowed down. UM. So it is slowing, it's moving

0:06:39.720 --> 0:06:42.600
<v Speaker 1>in the right direction. UM. You know, has it slowed enough?

0:06:42.880 --> 0:06:45.839
<v Speaker 1>That's that's for the FED to UM. I guess debate thoroughly,

0:06:45.920 --> 0:06:50.040
<v Speaker 1>but there's no question that that wage wage pressures are slowing.

0:06:50.520 --> 0:06:53.200
<v Speaker 1>Now going to be a really interesting look at where

0:06:53.200 --> 0:06:56.080
<v Speaker 1>the labor market stands now when we get those August

0:06:56.160 --> 0:07:00.080
<v Speaker 1>numbers this Friday. Tom Porcelli, as always great to see

<v Speaker 1>I'm Nathan Hager and I'm Karen Moscow. We are just

0:08:35.320 --> 0:08:37.760
<v Speaker 1>about three hours away from the open of US trading.

0:08:37.760 --> 0:08:39.559
<v Speaker 1>It's time to five things that you need to notice.

<v Speaker 1>and Gotti is chief investment officer at p n C.

0:09:03.320 --> 0:09:06.000
<v Speaker 1>I said management group. To the extent that the Fed

0:09:06.120 --> 0:09:09.079
<v Speaker 1>stays the course here, I think that the market can

0:09:09.320 --> 0:09:12.640
<v Speaker 1>live with it. In air quotes, relative to some of

0:09:12.679 --> 0:09:14.840
<v Speaker 1>the fears that are looming larger out there, I think

0:09:14.960 --> 0:09:17.480
<v Speaker 1>the market is already priced for the path that's the head.

0:09:17.559 --> 0:09:20.520
<v Speaker 1>To the extent that the dot plot changes meaningfully in

0:09:20.559 --> 0:09:23.640
<v Speaker 1>the terminal rate moves higher from where we are, that's

0:09:23.679 --> 0:09:27.360
<v Speaker 1>going to be a challenge for markets. P NCSA Management

<v Speaker 1>Chief Investment Officer Amanda Gotti says she's not making any

0:09:30.440 --> 0:09:34.360
<v Speaker 1>meaningful changes to her portfolio yet. Yesterday, Karen three regional

0:09:34.400 --> 0:09:37.640
<v Speaker 1>FED chiefs reiterated Chair J. Powell's intention to bring down inflation,

0:09:37.720 --> 0:09:41.440
<v Speaker 1>including Richmond FED President Thomas Barkin. He cautioned that the

0:09:41.480 --> 0:09:44.360
<v Speaker 1>path to cool prices make it bumpy. The pace of

0:09:44.400 --> 0:09:46.559
<v Speaker 1>when we get back to our target, which is two percent,

0:09:46.679 --> 0:09:49.600
<v Speaker 1>is uncertain, but as a result our commitment to bring

0:09:49.640 --> 0:09:53.120
<v Speaker 1>inflation down, which hopefully you welcome, leads to worries about

0:09:53.120 --> 0:09:56.600
<v Speaker 1>a recession. Richmond FED President Thomas Barkin spoke yesterday in

0:09:56.640 --> 0:10:00.680

<v Speaker 1>coming up in traffic first, Michael bars here. Did you

0:11:30.640 --> 0:11:33.640
<v Speaker 1>feel it? Michael, Oh, Yes, I felt it. I felt

0:11:33.640 --> 0:11:36.720
<v Speaker 1>that traffic jam, and I've felt the two earthquakes as well.

0:11:37.080 --> 0:11:40.360

<v Speaker 1>bussing migrants to places like Chicago and New York City.

0:12:11.200 --> 0:12:14.280
<v Speaker 1>The buses provided an opportunity for the migrants to get

0:12:14.320 --> 0:12:17.480
<v Speaker 1>to where they wanted to go. Now it appears they

0:12:17.520 --> 0:12:21.480
<v Speaker 1>have stopped. John Martin, the deputy director of the Opportunity Center,

0:12:21.520 --> 0:12:24.120

<v Speaker 1>with a hundred percent confidence, I can tell you this

0:12:27.120 --> 0:12:30.000
<v Speaker 1>is their choice, this is their desire, and this is

0:12:30.040 --> 0:12:33.240
<v Speaker 1>the direction they want to go. Senate Director John Martin

0:12:43.440 --> 0:12:46.400

0:12:46.400 --> 0:12:51.120
<v Speaker 1>Cold War, has died Fordham journalism Professor Beth Noble. I

0:12:51.160 --> 0:12:53.840
<v Speaker 1>think he will be looked back upon as someone who

0:12:53.960 --> 0:12:56.880
<v Speaker 1>ended up doing great things for the world by bringing

0:12:56.880 --> 0:12:59.760
<v Speaker 1>down the USSR, by ending the Cold War, and by

0:12:59.760 --> 0:13:04.040
<v Speaker 1>bring democracy to millions of people in the former Soviet block.

0:13:04.360 --> 0:13:08.400

0:13:08.600 --> 0:13:12.520
<v Speaker 1>Gorbachoff's death followed a severe and prolonged illness. Mihail Gorbachoff

<v Speaker 1>the US. President Biden said, this is the time to

0:13:35.160 --> 0:13:38.040
<v Speaker 1>spend money on local law enforcement. It's based on a

0:13:38.120 --> 0:13:41.760
<v Speaker 1>simple notion when it comes to public safety. To this station,

0:13:41.800 --> 0:13:46.800
<v Speaker 1>the answer is not defund the police. It's fund the police,

0:13:47.760 --> 0:13:50.600
<v Speaker 1>Fund the police. Among the people in attendance or Biden's

0:13:50.600 --> 0:13:53.840

<v Speaker 1>tonight at City Field. Dodgers scored seventh inning to win

0:14:47.440 --> 0:14:49.800

0:14:50.280 --> 0:14:52.840
<v Speaker 1>So you'll have Jacob de Graham at city Field tonight,

0:14:52.840 --> 0:14:55.880

0:15:03.880 --> 0:15:07.040
<v Speaker 1>second seed in that count divide. Retirement is coming either

0:15:07.080 --> 0:15:09.720

0:15:09.960 --> 0:15:13.520
<v Speaker 1>future plans. I don't see myself not a part of tennis.

0:15:13.640 --> 0:15:15.280

0:15:15.320 --> 0:15:18.040
<v Speaker 1>of tennis um as of right now. I just don't

0:15:18.080 --> 0:15:22.880
<v Speaker 1>know how. But I just feel like we've come too

0:15:22.880 --> 0:15:26.320
<v Speaker 1>far together to just not have anything to do with it.

0:15:26.720 --> 0:15:29.680

0:15:50.280 --> 0:15:52.040
<v Speaker 1>Wall Street. Time to take a look at stock some

0:15:52.040 --> 0:15:54.200
<v Speaker 1>of the names moving in the pre market as we

0:15:54.240 --> 0:15:56.840
<v Speaker 1>get ready for the final day of trading in this

0:15:57.480 --> 0:16:00.400
<v Speaker 1>down month of August. We check in live with Bloomberg

0:16:00.520 --> 0:16:04.120
<v Speaker 1>Radio and TV Markets correspondent Create Create been watching the

0:16:04.200 --> 0:16:07.080
<v Speaker 1>future is kind of waiver all morning long, but underneath

0:16:07.120 --> 0:16:11.120
<v Speaker 1>there's some big individual movers this morning. Absolutely let's start

0:16:11.160 --> 0:16:12.880
<v Speaker 1>off with I think the major story that we are

0:16:12.880 --> 0:16:15.240
<v Speaker 1>going to this week, which is the job story pay

0:16:15.360 --> 0:16:17.800
<v Speaker 1>rolls of course coming on Friday of the ADP number

0:16:17.840 --> 0:16:20.960
<v Speaker 1>with a new methodology change talking about jobs and pay

0:16:21.000 --> 0:16:23.160
<v Speaker 1>coming out today and in that you're seeing it on

0:16:23.160 --> 0:16:25.280
<v Speaker 1>the corporate level as well. Snapchat is where I'm going

0:16:25.280 --> 0:16:27.680
<v Speaker 1>with this. S n a P is your taker. They're

0:16:27.680 --> 0:16:32.280
<v Speaker 1>cutting their workforce by twenty percent starting today. This is significant.

0:16:32.280 --> 0:16:35.240
<v Speaker 1>It comes after they have about six hundred and six thousand,

0:16:35.320 --> 0:16:39.920
<v Speaker 1>five hundred employees excuse me, makes about hundred people. S

0:16:40.040 --> 0:16:42.560
<v Speaker 1>n a P Shares down about six percent on that news.

0:16:42.600 --> 0:16:44.640
<v Speaker 1>The idea here being that if big tech companies and

0:16:44.720 --> 0:16:48.360
<v Speaker 1>social media companies like Snap that are extremely exposed to

0:16:48.400 --> 0:16:50.960
<v Speaker 1>the business cycle and the economic cycle, if they are

0:16:51.040 --> 0:16:54.560
<v Speaker 1>bracing for a pretty deep downturn to the point that

0:16:54.600 --> 0:16:57.520
<v Speaker 1>they do have to cut their workforce by then what

0:16:57.600 --> 0:16:59.320
<v Speaker 1>does that say about the rest of the economy and

0:16:59.400 --> 0:17:02.040
<v Speaker 1>that company specifically. Remember, a lot of these social media

0:17:02.080 --> 0:17:05.879
<v Speaker 1>companies UM are very reliant on business investment, and a

0:17:05.880 --> 0:17:09.240
<v Speaker 1>lot of these job losses or job cuts are actually

0:17:09.240 --> 0:17:11.879
<v Speaker 1>happening in the part of the business that works on

0:17:12.000 --> 0:17:15.560
<v Speaker 1>kind of small niche application software of their company. So

0:17:15.600 --> 0:17:17.480
<v Speaker 1>that's something you really want to keep an eye on, Nathan.

0:17:17.480 --> 0:17:20.240
<v Speaker 1>And in line with that same thought thinking process is

0:17:20.359 --> 0:17:22.880
<v Speaker 1>HP as well. UM we talk. I like to talk

0:17:22.920 --> 0:17:25.359
<v Speaker 1>a lot about recession stories and talk about consumer spending

0:17:25.400 --> 0:17:27.399
<v Speaker 1>there I like to look at it from a business

0:17:27.440 --> 0:17:29.840
<v Speaker 1>investment point of view. Once again, when the big corporate

0:17:29.840 --> 0:17:33.600
<v Speaker 1>players start to cut back, that's when you should be concerned. HP,

0:17:33.720 --> 0:17:36.200
<v Speaker 1>for example, really falls under that category. Uh, And I

0:17:36.200 --> 0:17:38.280
<v Speaker 1>should say HP as well as a better way to

0:17:38.280 --> 0:17:40.960
<v Speaker 1>look at that HP enterprises. It's kind of a two Uh.

0:17:41.119 --> 0:17:44.560
<v Speaker 1>The two takers are are listed separately. HP is is

0:17:44.560 --> 0:17:46.680
<v Speaker 1>the taker you want to look at this morning, because

0:17:46.720 --> 0:17:48.879
<v Speaker 1>those shares are down one point one per cent. This

0:17:48.880 --> 0:17:52.679
<v Speaker 1>comes after they're cutting their sales forecast siting lower PC demand.

0:17:52.680 --> 0:17:54.639
<v Speaker 1>Think about it, if you are a major business and

0:17:54.680 --> 0:17:58.960
<v Speaker 1>you are concerned about a recession or concerned about hiring,

0:17:58.960 --> 0:18:01.800
<v Speaker 1>do you really need to start buying more and more PCs,

0:18:01.800 --> 0:18:04.000
<v Speaker 1>buying more and more and more equipment right now? The

0:18:04.040 --> 0:18:06.320
<v Speaker 1>answer is not as much as before. And that of

0:18:06.320 --> 0:18:08.920
<v Speaker 1>course is weighing on the shares. Nathan and finally creating.

0:18:08.960 --> 0:18:11.679
<v Speaker 1>We've been waiting for this regulatory filing from Bedbeth and Beyond.

0:18:11.720 --> 0:18:14.240
<v Speaker 1>It looks like the stock is plummeting now on the

0:18:14.280 --> 0:18:16.480
<v Speaker 1>back of that. It really is. We are, of course

0:18:16.520 --> 0:18:19.240
<v Speaker 1>waiting us still on the details of that strategic update.

0:18:19.240 --> 0:18:21.520
<v Speaker 1>Re Member liquidity is a major story when it comes

0:18:21.520 --> 0:18:23.480
<v Speaker 1>to Bed Bath and Beyond. They did shut a file

0:18:24.080 --> 0:18:27.800
<v Speaker 1>the filings as well, But once again it doesn't look

0:18:27.840 --> 0:18:30.840
<v Speaker 1>like there isn't much changes to that story. We're gonna

0:18:30.880 --> 0:18:33.000
<v Speaker 1>keep you a price of all those developments throughout the day.

<v Speaker 1>one five percent. Nathan, all right, Karen, thank you. But

0:20:46.240 --> 0:20:48.920
<v Speaker 1>the market is beginning this session trading at a one

0:20:49.000 --> 0:20:53.360
<v Speaker 1>month flow as FED fears continue to persist. Three regional

0:20:53.359 --> 0:20:57.000
<v Speaker 1>FED presidents yesterday reiterated Chair J. Powell's intention to bring

0:20:57.000 --> 0:21:00.119
<v Speaker 1>down inflation. Amanda A. Gotti is chief investment office her

0:21:00.160 --> 0:21:03.080
<v Speaker 1>at p n C Asset Management Group. I actually think

0:21:03.119 --> 0:21:07.040
<v Speaker 1>that we're going to start to see more confirmation and

0:21:07.119 --> 0:21:11.119
<v Speaker 1>evidence of inflation rolling over. And while the Fed, you know,

0:21:11.200 --> 0:21:13.440
<v Speaker 1>only has a few data points to go on here

0:21:13.560 --> 0:21:17.199
<v Speaker 1>so far, I think the market has already adjusted on

0:21:17.240 --> 0:21:20.160
<v Speaker 1>the equity side in terms of evaluations, but also on

0:21:20.200 --> 0:21:23.520
<v Speaker 1>the bond market side in terms of you know, futures,

0:21:23.520 --> 0:21:26.720
<v Speaker 1>probability of rate hikes, and where interest rates have moved

0:21:26.720 --> 0:21:29.440
<v Speaker 1>to p n C ST managements. Amanda god He says

0:21:29.480 --> 0:21:31.760
<v Speaker 1>she is not making any meaningful changes right now to

0:21:31.880 --> 0:21:35.679
<v Speaker 1>her portfolio. Well, Nathan Richmond. FED President Thomas Barkin is

0:21:35.680 --> 0:21:38.320
<v Speaker 1>one of the central bank officials beating the drum to

0:21:38.400 --> 0:21:41.080
<v Speaker 1>stop inflation. He found the FED would not flinch in

0:21:41.119 --> 0:21:44.880
<v Speaker 1>its Effortsical Prices cautioned it might not be a smooth process.

0:21:45.200 --> 0:21:48.040
<v Speaker 1>We're committed to getting inflation under control, and there's a

0:21:48.080 --> 0:21:51.080
<v Speaker 1>path to get there. A recession is obviously a risk

0:21:51.560 --> 0:21:55.600
<v Speaker 1>in the process. Um, I'll just say for context, nobody

0:21:55.600 --> 0:21:59.560
<v Speaker 1>ever canceled the business cycle, So the when you say

0:21:59.560 --> 0:22:01.400
<v Speaker 1>there's a risk ski recession, it doesn't have to be

0:22:01.440 --> 0:22:05.960
<v Speaker 1>like a two recession. Richmond FED President Thomas Barkin made

0:22:05.960 --> 0:22:09.080
<v Speaker 1>the comments in West Virginia yesterday. Wall Street is worried

0:22:09.119 --> 0:22:12.640
<v Speaker 1>that the Fed's aggressive battle against inflation will lead to hire, unemployment,

0:22:12.680 --> 0:22:15.400
<v Speaker 1>and recession. Karen. This morning, we get the first read

0:22:15.440 --> 0:22:17.920
<v Speaker 1>on August jobs with the a d P Report. Let's

0:22:17.960 --> 0:22:21.120
<v Speaker 1>get a preview from Bloomberg's Michael McKee. ADP returns from

0:22:21.160 --> 0:22:24.560
<v Speaker 1>its months long hiatus with updated methodology and a range

0:22:24.560 --> 0:22:27.760
<v Speaker 1>of wage data, and avow it's not supposed to be

0:22:27.800 --> 0:22:31.560
<v Speaker 1>a forecast of the government's monthly payroll report. The revamp report,

0:22:31.680 --> 0:22:34.520
<v Speaker 1>developed with the Stanford Digital Economy Lab, will feature the

0:22:34.560 --> 0:22:38.000
<v Speaker 1>monthly change in private employment as well as weekly payrolls

0:22:38.080 --> 0:22:41.919
<v Speaker 1>data for the preceding month. Median annual growth by industry,

0:22:41.960 --> 0:22:45.960
<v Speaker 1>company size, region, gender, and age will also now be available.

0:22:46.119 --> 0:22:48.800
<v Speaker 1>While there is a median projection for this month's report,

0:22:49.040 --> 0:22:53.200
<v Speaker 1>given the changes, several Wall Street economists haven't submitted estimates

0:22:53.280 --> 0:22:56.680
<v Speaker 1>for this month. Michael McKie, Bloomberg Daybreak, All right, Mike,

0:22:56.720 --> 0:22:59.840
<v Speaker 1>thank you well. Overseas your area, inflation accelerated to another

0:23:00.160 --> 0:23:02.919
<v Speaker 1>time high, as the European Central Bank considers a jumbo

0:23:03.040 --> 0:23:06.080
<v Speaker 1>interest rate high when it meets next week. Consumer prices

0:23:06.280 --> 0:23:08.720
<v Speaker 1>jumped nine point one percent from a year ago, and

0:23:08.760 --> 0:23:11.560
<v Speaker 1>in the UK, shop price inflation increased to five point

0:23:11.600 --> 0:23:13.920
<v Speaker 1>one percent in August. The price of food grows even

0:23:13.920 --> 0:23:17.480
<v Speaker 1>more nine point three percent. In Asia, Karen China's factory

0:23:17.520 --> 0:23:21.040
<v Speaker 1>activity contracted in August for a second straight month. Bloomberg

0:23:21.119 --> 0:23:23.960
<v Speaker 1>Daybreak Asia anchor Brian Curtis has more. From Hong Kong,

0:23:24.040 --> 0:23:26.480
<v Speaker 1>the official p m I rose to forty nine point

0:23:26.520 --> 0:23:30.040
<v Speaker 1>four from forty nine in July. The economy has been

0:23:30.119 --> 0:23:33.000
<v Speaker 1>hit by power routages, the crisis in the property market,

0:23:33.200 --> 0:23:36.800
<v Speaker 1>and multiple COVID outbreaks. The reading was slightly higher than

0:23:36.840 --> 0:23:39.919
<v Speaker 1>the estimate of forty nine point two, but still in

0:23:40.000 --> 0:23:44.080
<v Speaker 1>contraction mode. Meantime, the non manufacturing gauge fell to fifty

0:23:44.080 --> 0:23:47.360
<v Speaker 1>two point six from fifty three point eight. The main

0:23:47.400 --> 0:23:51.600
<v Speaker 1>takeaway this economy is still losing speed in Hong Kong.

0:23:51.600 --> 0:23:54.280
<v Speaker 1>Brian Curtis, Bloomberg Daybreak, A right, Brian, thank you back

0:23:54.280 --> 0:23:57.080
<v Speaker 1>here at home. New allegations of obstruction of justice may

0:23:57.080 --> 0:24:00.359
<v Speaker 1>be added to former President Trump's legal woes. Details from Boomberry,

0:24:00.440 --> 0:24:04.240
<v Speaker 1>Jamie Morrison, or news room in Washington. The Justice Department

0:24:04.280 --> 0:24:07.400
<v Speaker 1>has responded to former President Trump's request for a special

0:24:07.440 --> 0:24:10.280
<v Speaker 1>master review of documents he kept at his home in Florida.

0:24:10.560 --> 0:24:14.480
<v Speaker 1>Investigators suggest Trump may have tried to obstruct the investigation.

0:24:14.800 --> 0:24:17.000
<v Speaker 1>The d o J says the records that were held

0:24:17.000 --> 0:24:19.359
<v Speaker 1>in a storage room at maral Lago appear to have

0:24:19.400 --> 0:24:22.520
<v Speaker 1>been moved before the FBI search in June. As far

0:24:22.560 --> 0:24:25.240
<v Speaker 1>as appointing a third party to review those documents, the

0:24:25.280 --> 0:24:28.240
<v Speaker 1>government said that was not only unnecessary, it would only

0:24:28.280 --> 0:24:31.919
<v Speaker 1>serve to delay the ongoing investigation. The judge has directed

0:24:31.960 --> 0:24:34.199
<v Speaker 1>Trump to respond to the d o J filing by

0:24:34.240 --> 0:24:38.040
<v Speaker 1>tonight in Washington. I'm Amy Morris, Bloomberg Daybreak. Thanks Amy

0:24:38.119 --> 0:24:40.840
<v Speaker 1>on Wall Street. Two of the most prominent investment banks

0:24:40.880 --> 0:24:43.280
<v Speaker 1>are removing some of the final hurdles to a full

0:24:43.320 --> 0:24:48.040
<v Speaker 1>return to office following the pandemic. More from Bloomberg's Doug Prisner, Goldman, Saxon,

0:24:48.040 --> 0:24:51.080
<v Speaker 1>Morgan Stanley will ease some of their remaining COVID nineteen

0:24:51.119 --> 0:24:54.880
<v Speaker 1>protocols after the Labor Day weekend. Goldman will allow employees

0:24:55.000 --> 0:24:59.119
<v Speaker 1>outside New York to enter offices regardless of vaccination status,

0:24:59.160 --> 0:25:02.439
<v Speaker 1>with no mandate to participate in regular testing or to

0:25:02.520 --> 0:25:05.879
<v Speaker 1>wear face coverings. Last week, Morgan Stanley told it's New

0:25:05.960 --> 0:25:09.280
<v Speaker 1>York staff as of September five, it's ending test and

0:25:09.400 --> 0:25:13.280
<v Speaker 1>control measures. Anyone who test positive should still isolate for

0:25:13.320 --> 0:25:15.840
<v Speaker 1>at least five days, then wear a mask for five more.

0:25:16.240 --> 0:25:18.880
<v Speaker 1>In New York, I'm dick prisoner, Bloomberg daybreak. All right, dog,

0:25:18.920 --> 0:25:21.040
<v Speaker 1>thank you. Let's take a look now at some stocks

0:25:21.080 --> 0:25:23.840
<v Speaker 1>moving in early trading. Shares of is Chewy or down

0:25:23.840 --> 0:25:26.399
<v Speaker 1>eleven and a half percent. The online pet supply retail

0:25:26.440 --> 0:25:29.440
<v Speaker 1>irisk at its revenue outlook and says customer growth is slowed.

0:25:29.600 --> 0:25:32.920
<v Speaker 1>Bloomberg Shirley Pillett has more. In a letter to shareholders,

0:25:33.000 --> 0:25:36.000
<v Speaker 1>Chewy said sales in the current fiscal year will total

0:25:36.040 --> 0:25:39.680

0:26:53.200 --> 0:26:56.000
<v Speaker 1>According to the U S Geological Survey, two earthquakes in

0:26:56.200 --> 0:26:59.320

0:27:30.000 --> 0:27:33.960
<v Speaker 1>Texas has been bussing migrants from the Opportunity Center to

<v Speaker 1>v I A and El Paso, John Martin, the deputy

0:27:40.400 --> 0:27:43.040
<v Speaker 1>director of the center, says up until now it has

0:27:43.080 --> 0:27:46.320
<v Speaker 1>been working out well. I've never seen individuals run so

0:27:46.400 --> 0:27:48.800
<v Speaker 1>quickly to take a shower so that they could get

0:27:48.840 --> 0:27:51.160
<v Speaker 1>on a bus. They'll be able to go to where

0:27:51.359 --> 0:27:54.480

0:28:18.280 --> 0:28:22.080
<v Speaker 1>the patient had other underlying health conditions. It's important to

0:28:22.080 --> 0:28:24.719
<v Speaker 1>focus that we have mitigation letters in place to prevent

0:28:24.800 --> 0:28:28.480
<v Speaker 1>monkey pox. Get vaccinated, if you're sick, go to a doctor,

0:28:28.560 --> 0:28:31.239
<v Speaker 1>get tested, and if you have severe illness, there are

0:28:31.240 --> 0:28:34.399
<v Speaker 1>treatments that are available. Dr mcquisten says. Though only a

0:28:34.400 --> 0:28:38.680
<v Speaker 1>handful of monkeypox fatalities have been reported globally, President Biden

0:28:38.680 --> 0:28:43.400

0:29:29.280 --> 0:29:31.360
<v Speaker 1>Yankee fans like to see their teams play well as

0:29:31.400 --> 0:29:33.680

0:29:49.000 --> 0:29:53.680

<v Speaker 1>The pandemic has been directly responsible for more than one

0:34:35.560 --> 0:34:39.480
<v Speaker 1>million American depths. Meanwhile, the US government anticipates that it

0:34:39.520 --> 0:34:42.480
<v Speaker 1>will stop purchasing and providing COVID nineteen shots as soon

0:34:42.520 --> 0:34:44.960
<v Speaker 1>as January due to a lack of funds that will

0:34:45.000 --> 0:34:48.319
<v Speaker 1>leave Americans to obtain vaccines through insurers or pay for

0:34:48.360 --> 0:34:50.799
<v Speaker 1>them out of pocket. And to a Wall Street's most

0:34:50.840 --> 0:34:53.840
<v Speaker 1>prominent investment banks are removing some of the final hurdles

0:34:53.840 --> 0:34:57.840
<v Speaker 1>to fully returning to offices following the pandemic. Coleman Sachs,

0:34:57.920 --> 0:35:00.440
<v Speaker 1>which led Wall Streets return to Manhattan to hours by

0:35:00.480 --> 0:35:03.880
<v Speaker 1>pushing employees to resume regular commutes last year, and Morgan

0:35:03.960 --> 0:35:07.000
<v Speaker 1>Stanley both told staff that they will ease some of

0:35:07.040 --> 0:35:10.960
<v Speaker 1>their remaining COVID nineteen mitigation efforts after the Labor Day weekend.

0:35:11.239 --> 0:35:14.040
<v Speaker 1>That's a Bloomberg and j I t Stem report. Nathan

0:35:14.200 --> 0:35:16.319
<v Speaker 1>all right, Karen, thank you. We are live from the

<v Speaker 1>Street Time now to check what's going on in BC.

0:35:21.960 --> 0:35:24.720
<v Speaker 1>Some of the top stories in our nation's capital include

0:35:24.760 --> 0:35:29.520
<v Speaker 1>the Justice Department accusing former President Donald Trump of potentially

0:35:29.880 --> 0:35:34.320
<v Speaker 1>attempting obstruction of justice, said marl Lago, President Biden blasting

0:35:34.360 --> 0:35:37.200
<v Speaker 1>Republican attacks on the FBI and a speech on safety

0:35:37.239 --> 0:35:41.240
<v Speaker 1>and policing. And Washington reacts to the death of former

0:35:41.280 --> 0:35:45.879
<v Speaker 1>Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbatchov. Bloomberg Government Congressional reporter Jack Fitzpatrick

0:35:46.160 --> 0:35:49.000
<v Speaker 1>is back with us now, so give us the latest,

0:35:49.160 --> 0:35:53.040
<v Speaker 1>Jack on this late night filing from the Justice Department,

0:35:53.080 --> 0:35:56.400
<v Speaker 1>apparently in response to former President Trump's request for an

0:35:56.440 --> 0:36:00.680
<v Speaker 1>independent review of all those classified documents taken from his home. Yes,

0:36:00.800 --> 0:36:03.759
<v Speaker 1>the news here is the d o J said there's

0:36:03.800 --> 0:36:07.839
<v Speaker 1>some indication that the former president the people around him

0:36:08.280 --> 0:36:12.440
<v Speaker 1>may have tried to hide some of the documents they found.

0:36:12.840 --> 0:36:14.880
<v Speaker 1>Is a little bit of a kind of an extensive

0:36:14.920 --> 0:36:17.360
<v Speaker 1>timeline here. There's a back and forth with the National

0:36:17.480 --> 0:36:21.440
<v Speaker 1>Archives and the FBI actually visited maral Lago in June

0:36:22.239 --> 0:36:25.920
<v Speaker 1>ahead of that August eighth search warrant, and they were

0:36:25.960 --> 0:36:30.319
<v Speaker 1>told by Trump's lawyers after that June meeting that they

0:36:30.320 --> 0:36:33.480
<v Speaker 1>had handed over all the relevant documents. That clearly was

0:36:33.560 --> 0:36:38.160
<v Speaker 1>not true. Uh. The the overarching issue beyond that also

0:36:38.320 --> 0:36:42.120
<v Speaker 1>is that the Trump lawyers have called for a special

0:36:42.160 --> 0:36:46.200
<v Speaker 1>master to review the information around this. The FBI d

0:36:46.280 --> 0:36:51.480
<v Speaker 1>o J has said that could interrupted interfere with their investigation.

0:36:51.800 --> 0:36:55.520
<v Speaker 1>So there's a debate over the amount of transparency and

0:36:55.520 --> 0:36:58.920
<v Speaker 1>whether to bring in an outside person to to have

0:36:58.960 --> 0:37:01.960
<v Speaker 1>a role in reviewing all of this. But the the

0:37:02.000 --> 0:37:05.680
<v Speaker 1>assertion here from d o J is that the former

0:37:05.719 --> 0:37:10.040
<v Speaker 1>president had effectively told them he handed everything over, and

0:37:10.080 --> 0:37:13.480
<v Speaker 1>they ultimately found about twice as much as had been

0:37:13.520 --> 0:37:17.279
<v Speaker 1>indicated by the former president's lawyers when they actually got

0:37:17.320 --> 0:37:19.839
<v Speaker 1>that search warrant, and there was some evidence that there

0:37:19.920 --> 0:37:23.040
<v Speaker 1>was dishonesty and an attempt to cover things up. Is

0:37:23.040 --> 0:37:25.920
<v Speaker 1>there a possibility then that we could see from the

0:37:26.000 --> 0:37:30.640
<v Speaker 1>Justice Department more than just talk of obstruction of justice,

0:37:30.680 --> 0:37:34.200
<v Speaker 1>but an actual indictment. Well, we don't have any anything

0:37:34.200 --> 0:37:37.000
<v Speaker 1>official now, but that that is uh, sort of the

0:37:37.000 --> 0:37:41.000
<v Speaker 1>implication of all of this. They're they're raising a serious

0:37:41.120 --> 0:37:46.600
<v Speaker 1>legal allegation that they were investigating this and the people

0:37:46.680 --> 0:37:50.960
<v Speaker 1>around former President Trump, potentially all the way to former

0:37:51.000 --> 0:37:55.280
<v Speaker 1>President Trump, were dishonest with the FBI about the amount

0:37:55.280 --> 0:37:59.080
<v Speaker 1>of information they gave over uh. And that raises the

0:37:59.239 --> 0:38:03.120
<v Speaker 1>possibility of obstruction of justice. We don't know how the

0:38:03.160 --> 0:38:06.480
<v Speaker 1>d o J is going to go forward with this, uh,

0:38:06.560 --> 0:38:09.120
<v Speaker 1>you know, in in Washington, this really raises the specter

0:38:09.320 --> 0:38:13.279
<v Speaker 1>of a bit of a constitutional crisis. Uh uh, And

0:38:13.320 --> 0:38:15.520
<v Speaker 1>they are trying to be careful about how they go

0:38:15.680 --> 0:38:18.839
<v Speaker 1>forward with this. But yes, the things they're describing here,

0:38:18.920 --> 0:38:21.800
<v Speaker 1>if the allegations are true, that that would be illegal

0:38:21.880 --> 0:38:25.200
<v Speaker 1>to uh to withhold that information in the midst of

0:38:25.239 --> 0:38:30.160
<v Speaker 1>an FBI investigation. What does this mean for Republicans support

0:38:30.360 --> 0:38:34.120
<v Speaker 1>for the former president, which they've shown a lot of

0:38:34.320 --> 0:38:39.040
<v Speaker 1>up to now. Yeah, it has not gone away. Republicans

0:38:39.080 --> 0:38:42.239
<v Speaker 1>have essentially played a game of wait and see. There

0:38:42.320 --> 0:38:45.480
<v Speaker 1>is absolutely a sense that there's another shoe to drop,

0:38:45.760 --> 0:38:49.000
<v Speaker 1>there's more information that could come out, and the initial

0:38:49.120 --> 0:38:53.560
<v Speaker 1>pushback uh and insistence that this must have been declassified,

0:38:53.640 --> 0:38:58.279
<v Speaker 1>it must be really nothing, uh that has waned And

0:38:58.320 --> 0:39:03.120
<v Speaker 1>there's I think Republican lawmakers have been pretty quiet on

0:39:03.200 --> 0:39:07.920
<v Speaker 1>this lately, as the every development seems to indicate that

0:39:07.960 --> 0:39:11.480
<v Speaker 1>there will be another development. So it's not that they

0:39:11.480 --> 0:39:15.080
<v Speaker 1>have turned against former President Trump, but it's it's pretty

0:39:15.200 --> 0:39:20.120
<v Speaker 1>quiet here in Washington with regard to Republicans standing firmly

0:39:20.200 --> 0:39:23.480
<v Speaker 1>behind him. But it sounds a little bit like President

0:39:23.560 --> 0:39:26.200
<v Speaker 1>Biden is getting a little bit louder on this issue,

0:39:26.280 --> 0:39:29.640
<v Speaker 1>particularly in some of his comments about support for the

0:39:29.719 --> 0:39:33.959
<v Speaker 1>FBI and uh, you know the attacks that many Republicans

0:39:33.960 --> 0:39:36.600
<v Speaker 1>have leveled against the FBI in the wake of the

0:39:36.640 --> 0:39:39.719
<v Speaker 1>maral Lago search. Yes, that was a major focus of

0:39:39.800 --> 0:39:46.080
<v Speaker 1>his speech yesterday in Pennsylvania, playing up the candidacy's key

0:39:46.120 --> 0:39:50.200
<v Speaker 1>candidacies for the gubernatorial race, the Senate race, a swing

0:39:50.239 --> 0:39:55.320
<v Speaker 1>district race there in Pennsylvania, talking about how you cannot

0:39:55.360 --> 0:39:58.560
<v Speaker 1>support law enforcement or claim to support law enforcement and

0:39:58.600 --> 0:40:01.920
<v Speaker 1>want to defund the f B I. Uh, he kind

0:40:01.920 --> 0:40:06.040
<v Speaker 1>of tied this issue in with January six. This was

0:40:06.080 --> 0:40:10.399
<v Speaker 1>a significant focus on the campaign trail in a high

0:40:10.480 --> 0:40:14.560
<v Speaker 1>stakes area, high stakes series of races, where Biden really

0:40:14.560 --> 0:40:18.160
<v Speaker 1>went out of his way to focus on on the

0:40:18.160 --> 0:40:22.200
<v Speaker 1>Mara a Lago search on January six, and really I

0:40:22.200 --> 0:40:25.960
<v Speaker 1>think broadly on Trump's role in the Republican Party and

0:40:26.000 --> 0:40:28.359
<v Speaker 1>in our last minute or so here, Jack, I'm sure

0:40:28.400 --> 0:40:32.040
<v Speaker 1>there's gonna be an outpouring of reaction in Washington following

0:40:32.040 --> 0:40:36.359
<v Speaker 1>the passing of Mikhail Gorbachev, the last leader of the

0:40:36.400 --> 0:40:39.640
<v Speaker 1>former Soviet Union. Yes, and there have been a number

0:40:39.680 --> 0:40:43.000
<v Speaker 1>of statements that have come out in the West quite positive.

0:40:43.520 --> 0:40:47.480
<v Speaker 1>President Biden put out a statement describing Gorbachev as a

0:40:47.640 --> 0:40:51.760
<v Speaker 1>rare leader with the imagination to see a different future.

0:40:52.400 --> 0:40:58.400
<v Speaker 1>Really overwhelmingly complementary from Western leaders, including President Biden. Obviously,

0:40:58.440 --> 0:41:01.840
<v Speaker 1>his legacy is very diff print in Russia. Uh. He

0:41:02.200 --> 0:41:04.880
<v Speaker 1>attempted to continue to have a political career and had

0:41:04.920 --> 0:41:08.480
<v Speaker 1>a very unsuccessful presidential campaign after the fall of the

0:41:08.520 --> 0:41:12.080
<v Speaker 1>Soviet Union. So you know, the response from Russian officials,

0:41:12.640 --> 0:41:16.360
<v Speaker 1>including potentially Putin, would be very interesting to see. But

0:41:16.600 --> 0:41:19.200
<v Speaker 1>people like President Biden and others in the West have

0:41:19.280 --> 0:41:24.319
<v Speaker 1>put out a really an outpouring of complementary reminiscences of

0:41:24.400 --> 0:41:27.520
<v Speaker 1>Gorbachev's career. Thanks for this, Jack, great having you on
