7
00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:27,360
Speaker 1: had the I s M number come in a little

8
00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:31,240
Speaker 1: bit of a disappointment there. Um, the jobs number was

9
00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:33,520
Speaker 1: a little bit of a disappointment to four and thirty

10
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:36,040
Speaker 1: one thousand. We were looking for four ninety although still

11
00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:40,839
Speaker 1: um solid, robust is the word being used, and we

12
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:44,000
Speaker 1: had an upward revision last month. But as Katie, as

13
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:47,479
Speaker 1: you pointed out earlier, the UH two's ten still inverted?

14
00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:50,639
Speaker 1: Is it still inverted? Still inverted? Oh mg? Sarah House

15
00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:55,160
Speaker 1: joins us right now, senior economist at Wells Fargo Securities. Sarah,

16
00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:59,000
Speaker 1: we are terrified now because you know, the yield curve

17
00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:02,280
Speaker 1: was able to predict the pandemic before we even knew

18
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:06,160
Speaker 1: COVID existed. What is it telling us now? I told

19
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:09,000
Speaker 1: us a little about the potential for a recession over

20
00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:13,039
Speaker 1: the past cycle or so, especially given the feeds involvement

21
00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:16,360
Speaker 1: in in asset purchases. And I think one of the

22
00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:19,480
Speaker 1: things we learned from today's employment report is that even

23
00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:23,280
Speaker 1: as we have some moderation and growth, momentum overall remains

24
00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:26,080
Speaker 1: strong in the US economy. So I think there's still

25
00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:28,720
Speaker 1: a lot more growth to be squeezed out out of

26
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:30,880
Speaker 1: the economy before we need to get too worried about

27
00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:33,839
Speaker 1: recession fears. Right now, Okay, so growth to be still

28
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:36,440
Speaker 1: squeezed out of the economy. What about the labor market?

29
00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:40,720
Speaker 1: Because again Headline disappointed, there were definitely some bright spots

30
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:45,440
Speaker 1: in their net net. What is your takeaway net net?

31
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 1: I think this is a still solid report. So yes,

32
00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:51,160
Speaker 1: it was a little bit lighter than expectations, but you know,

33
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:54,480
Speaker 1: only by roughly sixty versus of the Bloomberg insensus, So

34
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 1: that's not a big miss in the grand scheme of

35
00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:00,920
Speaker 1: the post COVID recovery. And I think in certainly it

36
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:03,520
Speaker 1: showed that we still have pretty decent momentum. So you

37
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:05,800
Speaker 1: have to remember this is a much cleaner read on

38
00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 1: the underlying trend and hiring. So in January that number

39
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:14,760
Speaker 1: was boosted by some really favorable seasonal factors. February was

40
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:18,520
Speaker 1: likely reflecting a bounced back of the amicron waves that

41
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:22,360
Speaker 1: was hidden by those those favorable seasonal factories in January.

42
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:26,000
Speaker 1: So we're still seeing a real solid pace of of hiring,

43
00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 1: and importantly, it's still strong enough to keep that labor

44
00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:32,400
Speaker 1: market tightening even as you have more workers coming back

45
00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:34,799
Speaker 1: into the labor force. Yeah, we see wages up five

46
00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:38,600
Speaker 1: point six percent year over year. That's a number I

47
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:41,600
Speaker 1: like to see as high as possible, Sarah, because I

48
00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:44,560
Speaker 1: love it when people get paid more. But are we

49
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:48,880
Speaker 1: going to start hearing people worry about a price wage spiral?

50
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 1: I think, if anything, some of those fears have have

51
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,880
Speaker 1: abated a little bit over the past couple of months. So, yes,

52
00:02:56,919 --> 00:03:00,480
Speaker 1: you're seeing wages up five point six percent over the here,

53
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 1: but if you look at what the recent trend is,

54
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:07,080
Speaker 1: so over the past three months, average hourly earnings have

55
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:10,160
Speaker 1: increased at a four and a half percent annualized rates,

56
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:13,120
Speaker 1: we're actually seeing a little bit of moderation. And this

57
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:16,000
Speaker 1: fits with the fact that while overall demand for workers

58
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:19,400
Speaker 1: remains really strong, that the pace of increase in that

59
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:22,880
Speaker 1: demand has has really leveled off. So you know, from

60
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:27,040
Speaker 1: from outright standpoint, demand remains strong, but it's not increasing

61
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:30,800
Speaker 1: without abandoned. So I think that's keeping employers perhaps a

62
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:35,560
Speaker 1: little bit more um. They're they're able to perhaps um

63
00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 1: not to raise wages at such a frenzied pace and

64
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:42,280
Speaker 1: and hopefully prevent that that wage price file. Let me

65
00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:44,400
Speaker 1: ask you to be so dangerous. Let me ask you

66
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:48,840
Speaker 1: kind of a political question, Um, are the wage increases

67
00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:50,960
Speaker 1: keeping up with inflation? I mean, it's not really a

68
00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 1: political question, right, it's a matter of fact, depending on

69
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:57,360
Speaker 1: which indexes you look at. Yeah, I'd say that's more

70
00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 1: of a mathematical question. So whether you're looking at the

71
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:05,080
Speaker 1: PC deflator, the CPI on an average hourly earnings basis, no,

72
00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:08,920
Speaker 1: they're not keeping up for the typical worker. But I

73
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:12,600
Speaker 1: think you have to take take into consideration the fact

74
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:15,120
Speaker 1: that we've added so many jobs over the past year.

75
00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 1: So we've added six and a half million jobs, and

76
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:20,400
Speaker 1: so when you look at the aggregate income being derived

77
00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:23,760
Speaker 1: from the labor market, it is enough to outpace inflation.

78
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:27,479
Speaker 1: And so that's limiting or at least blendings on the

79
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:30,960
Speaker 1: impact of the fiscal support of stride up and what

80
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:35,479
Speaker 1: that means for real household income um over over the

81
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:38,400
Speaker 1: coming months. So it is certainly tight for you know,

82
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 1: for individual workers and individual households. But in terms of

83
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:45,440
Speaker 1: the aggregate income picture, the fact that we're adding so

84
00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:49,320
Speaker 1: many jobs is supporting the overall income outlook. Well, Sarah,

85
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:51,400
Speaker 1: I am going to ask you political questions since we

86
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:55,640
Speaker 1: are awaiting remarks from President Biden on today's numbers. Curious

87
00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:59,440
Speaker 1: how you think the administration is probably reacting to some

88
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:03,080
Speaker 1: of the figures we saw this morning. So I think

89
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:05,279
Speaker 1: in as I said, I mean, overall, this is a

90
00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:08,240
Speaker 1: pretty decent report. So we see that the labor market

91
00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:11,480
Speaker 1: continues to tighten. We're getting more workers back into the

92
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:14,840
Speaker 1: labor force, so that's signaling that they are able and

93
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 1: willing to work. And so I think this is this

94
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:20,440
Speaker 1: is still strong, strong report, even if we did see

95
00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:24,119
Speaker 1: that that pace of hiring temper versus versus the past

96
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:26,360
Speaker 1: few months, and we'd expect that pace of hiring to

97
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:29,159
Speaker 1: just slow as we get into a more mature phase

98
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:35,719
Speaker 1: of the recovery. Sarah, Um, just just looking at inflation

99
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:40,200
Speaker 1: here looking out, are you sanguine that it's going to

100
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:42,880
Speaker 1: come back down as we get into um, you know,

101
00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:46,520
Speaker 1: as we get into the base effects of what we

102
00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:49,680
Speaker 1: saw at the end of last year. So the base

103
00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,920
Speaker 1: effects will certainly help, but I think it's still going

104
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:55,800
Speaker 1: to be pretty painful over you know, the next year

105
00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,320
Speaker 1: year and a half or so. So we're still looking

106
00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:00,800
Speaker 1: for the core PC deflator, so you know, kind of

107
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:04,400
Speaker 1: level setting with with the fence two percent target. So

108
00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:06,280
Speaker 1: we still expect that to be around four and a

109
00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:08,880
Speaker 1: half percent at the end of this year. So while

110
00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:11,760
Speaker 1: we're probably close to a peak um here in the

111
00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 1: next month or two, a lot of that depends on

112
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:16,640
Speaker 1: just what happens with the oil and gasoline prices. We're

113
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:20,200
Speaker 1: still looking at a pretty painful rate of inflation for

114
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 1: consumers and for policymakers for that matter. All Right, Sarah,

115
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:26,920
Speaker 1: great to get um your inside. Thank you so much

116
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:28,800
Speaker 1: for joining us. Always a pleasure talking to you. Sarah

117
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:36,480
Speaker 1: House there, senior economist over at Wells Fargo Securities. I

118
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 1: am sitting in the interactive broker studio with four unmasked people.

119
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:46,040
Speaker 1: It's amazing. It brings a tear of joy to my eye. Um,

120
00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:50,320
Speaker 1: Lisa Brahmowitz and Tom Keene in here at Bloomberg Surveillance Fame.

121
00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:56,279
Speaker 1: Katie Greifeld she'll be famous someday for Bloomberg et f

122
00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:58,880
Speaker 1: i Q. That's a show that we co host together. Actually,

123
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,760
Speaker 1: thank you every Monday on one PM. That's the middle

124
00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:07,120
Speaker 1: of surveillance NAP. I had quite a rudening route awakening,

125
00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:11,440
Speaker 1: I should say. Last week. You guys are all apartment dwellers, right,

126
00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:14,440
Speaker 1: you all live in the city. I got a gas

127
00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:17,640
Speaker 1: bill for five hundred and fifty dollars natural gas for

128
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:20,200
Speaker 1: the month that I wasn't really counting on, and I

129
00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:23,320
Speaker 1: just thought, yeah, that that kind of thing can throw

130
00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:26,440
Speaker 1: a real wrench into your finances. And the reason I

131
00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:29,480
Speaker 1: bring it up is because overnight in the UK the

132
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:33,240
Speaker 1: cap was lifted on the natural gas um for residential customers.

133
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:35,680
Speaker 1: Their bills are going to go up more than fifty

134
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:39,400
Speaker 1: percent overnight. That for a lot of people can drive

135
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:41,640
Speaker 1: you into poverty. That can cross the line. And this

136
00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 1: is what we're talking about earlier, which is the new

137
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:46,560
Speaker 1: inflation is frankly a memory for those with a bit

138
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:49,520
Speaker 1: of gray hair of the frenzy we lived in where

139
00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:51,680
Speaker 1: it was item to item. I looked at cheese pizza

140
00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:55,720
Speaker 1: slices today, But like you say, it's utilities as well,

141
00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:58,480
Speaker 1: and certainly every report we have from Europe is as

142
00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:01,240
Speaker 1: grim as the appropriate word, and not just Europe. In

143
00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:06,720
Speaker 1: Sri Lanka, I saw there were uh riots, people gathered

144
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:11,120
Speaker 1: around the palace. Social issue in Indonesia. This is really serious.

145
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:13,200
Speaker 1: And this is where you get into this word controls

146
00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:15,960
Speaker 1: or you have price controls and such. And it goes

147
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:18,600
Speaker 1: back to Lisa. This goes back to Japan and y

148
00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:23,040
Speaker 1: CC yield curve controls. It is institutions trying to control

149
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:26,000
Speaker 1: whatever cards are dealt right now. The big card is

150
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:29,119
Speaker 1: inflation and then of course how much people are getting

151
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:31,800
Speaker 1: paid and how that dovetails into it in otherwids can

152
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:35,040
Speaker 1: they afford it? And okay, if they kind of afford it,

153
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:36,960
Speaker 1: and this is sort of the big fear. Does that

154
00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:39,720
Speaker 1: mean that companies will just keep jacking up prices more?

155
00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:43,000
Speaker 1: I mean, yes, you're getting the like that's the spiral, right.

156
00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:46,800
Speaker 1: I wonder how much of this average hourly wage growth

157
00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:49,600
Speaker 1: real people see? I mean, how many times a year

158
00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:53,200
Speaker 1: do you get a raise if you're um an hourly worker? Actually,

159
00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 1: you know what? I will take the other side of that.

160
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:58,319
Speaker 1: There have been a number of reports about how Amazon

161
00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:02,360
Speaker 1: other manufacturing kinds of jobs, other areas where there's scarcity

162
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:06,440
Speaker 1: of labor, they're actually getting quarterly raises. There even some

163
00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:10,160
Speaker 1: places you're starting to see doing away of the annual

164
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:14,480
Speaker 1: review and a regular pace of increases in doing the

165
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:17,480
Speaker 1: way of the annual review. That's music to my ears. No,

166
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:19,760
Speaker 1: but I mean I've heard of this time. I mean honestly,

167
00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:22,280
Speaker 1: I we hear about it all the time and how

168
00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:24,040
Speaker 1: much wages are going up. To me, I have a

169
00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:28,600
Speaker 1: daily review with alf New Jersey. No, it does not

170
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:32,800
Speaker 1: most definitely not lucky. The badge works the next day.

171
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:35,480
Speaker 1: You know, it's it's been a crazy march. It's it's

172
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:38,680
Speaker 1: truly an historic quarter. And as I said to Lisa

173
00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:42,840
Speaker 1: eight hours ago, the measurement of uncertainty into this April

174
00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:45,840
Speaker 1: is we're where we were in January. We have no

175
00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:49,520
Speaker 1: clue what's coming. Well, I just am concerned about the inflation.

176
00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:53,360
Speaker 1: And a client wrote in this morning and said, could

177
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:55,199
Speaker 1: this be, you know, the beginning of a new Arab

178
00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:59,839
Speaker 1: spring where we start to see real uh social str

179
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:03,880
Speaker 1: life when it comes to rising prices. Imagine if you

180
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:06,200
Speaker 1: imagine you're in the UK, you're someone barely above the

181
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:09,240
Speaker 1: poverty line, and all of a sudden, your monthly gas bill,

182
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:12,360
Speaker 1: which you have to pay to power your appliances and

183
00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:16,439
Speaker 1: heat your home goes up. Let's not conflate all inflation

184
00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:19,439
Speaker 1: as the same. Right, The Arab spring is partly because

185
00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:21,560
Speaker 1: of the idea of Ukraine and what's going on there

186
00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:23,720
Speaker 1: with the wheat output, the idea that a lot of

187
00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:26,960
Speaker 1: that goes directly to Northern Africa, goes to some of

188
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:30,040
Speaker 1: these areas that are less privileged, So you're gonna see

189
00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:33,000
Speaker 1: wheat prices surge. You're seeing oil and gas prices surge

190
00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:35,280
Speaker 1: in certain places on the heels of what's going on

191
00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:39,440
Speaker 1: all all places, in all places in the US. It

192
00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:43,800
Speaker 1: is a unique story because they're also is wage inflation.

193
00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:47,880
Speaker 1: There's also positive signs, and it's stemming not just from

194
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:51,160
Speaker 1: the stiflationary shock that we're seeing out of Europe. And

195
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:53,559
Speaker 1: I think that that's an important distinction. There's not much

196
00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:56,840
Speaker 1: going on. We have fourteen and a half percent nominal

197
00:10:56,920 --> 00:11:01,160
Speaker 1: GDP last quarter. This court will be half that. I

198
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:03,760
Speaker 1: like what Neil Irwin said over to Exios in the hour.

199
00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:06,320
Speaker 1: He said, this is a boom economy. It's a boom

200
00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:10,000
Speaker 1: economy for everyone. No, it never is, but look around

201
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:12,679
Speaker 1: New York City, right now, I mean rents are ridiculous.

202
00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:16,520
Speaker 1: The home price I I, at least I can't get

203
00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:21,480
Speaker 1: used to home prices. No, that's also not the case.

204
00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:24,240
Speaker 1: It's also not just a US problem, right, that's another

205
00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:26,520
Speaker 1: problem that you see, at least in the UK and

206
00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:31,319
Speaker 1: in Germany. Um, I think prices rising are more painful

207
00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:34,040
Speaker 1: than maybe do you think even if wages are coming up?

208
00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:37,959
Speaker 1: And I think, um, when I when I hear about

209
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:41,079
Speaker 1: the boom economy, I wonder, then how come recession odds

210
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:45,360
Speaker 1: are so high for next years? Katie, question Katie. The

211
00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:49,800
Speaker 1: path for those younger is you live with four people

212
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:53,400
Speaker 1: in Chelsea or the Lower East Side, and then you

213
00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:56,560
Speaker 1: live with two people, and then there's that big jump

214
00:11:56,559 --> 00:11:59,560
Speaker 1: where you live with yourself. Someday I'll live in Brooklyn.

215
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:03,960
Speaker 1: If hip and cool and all that is that broken

216
00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:08,000
Speaker 1: with this New York City inflation, that path, It's interesting.

217
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:10,120
Speaker 1: I was having a conversation with a friend my age.

218
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:12,720
Speaker 1: It's okay, it's surveillance. You can say I was having

219
00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:15,280
Speaker 1: a conversation in a bar with a friend of mine. Okay,

220
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:19,320
Speaker 1: we're actually a rooftop bar. It was lovely. The weather

221
00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:21,480
Speaker 1: wasn't as terrible as it is now. But she moved

222
00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:24,720
Speaker 1: to London after college to work at a bank over there,

223
00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:26,200
Speaker 1: and she would like to come back to the US.

224
00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:30,200
Speaker 1: But she was saying, I am almost thirty. I don't

225
00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:32,120
Speaker 1: want to live with a room. Are you ready for this?

226
00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:34,960
Speaker 1: But that's the only way that I can live in

227
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:37,840
Speaker 1: New York. I can't believe I say I'm saying this.

228
00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:42,800
Speaker 1: Paris was cheap. I can't believe I'm saying that Europe

229
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:45,000
Speaker 1: right now. That was her point. My quality of life

230
00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:48,360
Speaker 1: in London is so much higher than it would be

231
00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:51,679
Speaker 1: in New York. This is a huge deal for Mayor Adams.

232
00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:55,520
Speaker 1: It's very true you left the city. Well, look, I

233
00:12:55,600 --> 00:13:00,200
Speaker 1: just moved from Berlin. Childcare is free to Scarsdale, where

234
00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:02,520
Speaker 1: it's going to cost me three grand amuntiple by kid

235
00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:06,360
Speaker 1: in a basement. You know, oh crime a river in Scarsdale.

236
00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:08,440
Speaker 1: I mean, into all honesty, okay, this is like, you know,

237
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:13,240
Speaker 1: top tier. You just hold on a second. I mean

238
00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:16,120
Speaker 1: it's somebody who raised your kids in the city. And

239
00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:18,600
Speaker 1: I will be honest. You're right, You're not wrong to

240
00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:21,240
Speaker 1: bring this up, So I'm not I'm not undercutting this issue.

241
00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:23,880
Speaker 1: There is a larger point here, and this is what

242
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:26,280
Speaker 1: I'm wrapping my head around right now, So I apologize

243
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:27,960
Speaker 1: because you're all my guinea pigs and what I'm trying

244
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:31,120
Speaker 1: to think about. But that actually one of the biggest

245
00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:33,160
Speaker 1: good things that could happen in the U. S. Economy

246
00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:35,439
Speaker 1: that could keep the boom economy that you're talking about,

247
00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:39,920
Speaker 1: Tom going, would be a profit margins strike. Basically if

248
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:45,480
Speaker 1: companies paid employees more and then just took it out

249
00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:48,640
Speaker 1: of their profits rather than passing it along to consumers,

250
00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:53,760
Speaker 1: so you actually got a better living because you're not

251
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:56,200
Speaker 1: paying that much more. But we see from the earnings

252
00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:59,319
Speaker 1: reports that they are passing a consumers exactly who are

253
00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:01,719
Speaker 1: being order in the stock market, well, I mean the

254
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:04,640
Speaker 1: stock market. Basically the stock market is not the not

255
00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:07,160
Speaker 1: the economy, and vice versa. And at the stock markets

256
00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:10,160
Speaker 1: benefited the economy's lag behind. Are we seeing a reversal

257
00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:13,680
Speaker 1: of that? Not quite yet, but could we. Tobb's looking

258
00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:16,320
Speaker 1: at me like, go just jump off a bridge. I

259
00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:17,760
Speaker 1: don't know if that's going to be a good thing.

260
00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:20,480
Speaker 1: If she said that with me and Pharaoll early in

261
00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:25,640
Speaker 1: the morning, we'd be apoplectic. I'm just I just am

262
00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:31,080
Speaker 1: surprised by the optimism here. Let's bring in Rebecca Ray

263
00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:34,440
Speaker 1: right now. She joins us from the conference board, where

264
00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:38,400
Speaker 1: she is executive vice president of Human Capital. Rebecca, let

265
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:40,960
Speaker 1: me first get your take on the job's number. Um,

266
00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:43,480
Speaker 1: what does it mean to you as you passed through

267
00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:49,400
Speaker 1: the data? Good morning and thanks for having me Um.

268
00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:51,920
Speaker 1: You know, I think it's very encouraging. We've got another

269
00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:55,840
Speaker 1: strong report. We're closing the gap on the number of

270
00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:58,920
Speaker 1: jobs that we lost since the pandemic hit US, and

271
00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:02,640
Speaker 1: I think all that's very encouraging. There's some very bright spots.

272
00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:05,520
Speaker 1: I think we've got a tightening labor market and people

273
00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:08,640
Speaker 1: who want to to work or having I think some

274
00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:12,400
Speaker 1: some good luck in finding positions. You see wages rising

275
00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:15,240
Speaker 1: in many industries, So I think there's a there's a

276
00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:17,520
Speaker 1: that's a great deal to be to be pleased with.

277
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:20,800
Speaker 1: But I think at the point that you just made, UM,

278
00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:24,040
Speaker 1: some of that may be mitigated by rising inflation, and

279
00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:27,000
Speaker 1: so that's that's going to play that's going to play

280
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:29,480
Speaker 1: into this as well. And we're back on the topic

281
00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:31,920
Speaker 1: of the labor market. The conference Sport has a new

282
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:35,520
Speaker 1: survey out on work life Balanced Struggles, and I want

283
00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:39,240
Speaker 1: to hear about this. What your findings found because it's

284
00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:42,080
Speaker 1: been an interesting labor market and that it took a

285
00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:46,480
Speaker 1: long time to fill that whole and employment because you know,

286
00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:50,320
Speaker 1: we're it feels like workers have had more, say, more power.

287
00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:55,640
Speaker 1: But what did your survey find? Yes, so we just

288
00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:59,400
Speaker 1: are about to release it today and I'm pleased to

289
00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:01,800
Speaker 1: to share a bit about what we found. You know,

290
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:04,920
Speaker 1: I think in these last couple of years, certainly everyone

291
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:08,360
Speaker 1: has had their own particular reaction to the events of

292
00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:10,400
Speaker 1: the world and what they did in terms of their

293
00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:14,040
Speaker 1: work arrangements. But there are many who are very concerned

294
00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:18,400
Speaker 1: that during that time, the work and the life, the

295
00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:21,400
Speaker 1: boundaries get very blurred, and some of that hasn't necessarily

296
00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:24,200
Speaker 1: shaken back out. And in fact, some of the concerns

297
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:27,840
Speaker 1: that we UH that we saw among both those who

298
00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:31,600
Speaker 1: are fully remote and those who are UH and and

299
00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:34,160
Speaker 1: hybrid you know, sometimes in the workplace and sometimes not

300
00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:36,360
Speaker 1: as well as those who are full time, they're all

301
00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:41,120
Speaker 1: a little concerned about blurred boundaries. I think the balance,

302
00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:44,560
Speaker 1: the pendulum will swing eventually, but I think a lot

303
00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:47,560
Speaker 1: of people are concerned that the advent of technology, regardless

304
00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:49,840
Speaker 1: of the way in which you work, is going to

305
00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:52,960
Speaker 1: mean that people are going to expect the continuation of

306
00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:56,200
Speaker 1: being always on, always available, and particularly for those who

307
00:16:56,200 --> 00:17:00,480
Speaker 1: are fully remote workers, that's a real concern. Yeah, because

308
00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:04,240
Speaker 1: remote workers we hear often that they put in more time,

309
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:08,160
Speaker 1: um than those who come to the office. How does

310
00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:11,040
Speaker 1: this return to work thing than pan out? Rebecca, What

311
00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:13,240
Speaker 1: do you think? Are we just looking at a hybrid

312
00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:15,240
Speaker 1: model for the future. Do we ever go back to

313
00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:17,760
Speaker 1: the old days of you just come in from you know,

314
00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:21,199
Speaker 1: eight to six every day, five days a week. How

315
00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:23,960
Speaker 1: does it? How does it turn out? You know, I

316
00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:28,080
Speaker 1: think most most of us begin to feel that they're

317
00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:30,560
Speaker 1: going to be in a hybrid situation of some type

318
00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:33,000
Speaker 1: or another for a very long time. I think the

319
00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:36,800
Speaker 1: game has permanently shifted. And I know that in this

320
00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:41,760
Speaker 1: latest survey, those who are millennials in particular, very concerned

321
00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:45,960
Speaker 1: about the increased cost of commuting. Many workers have found

322
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:50,240
Speaker 1: that they made great strides in work life integration and

323
00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:53,880
Speaker 1: they're reluctant to give that back now. You know, companies

324
00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:55,639
Speaker 1: will argue that they need to come back to the

325
00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:59,639
Speaker 1: workplace because they're concerned about you know, the absence of

326
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:02,040
Speaker 1: network working and building relationships that it's going to have

327
00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:05,399
Speaker 1: an impact on collaboration that their culture will suffer. I

328
00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:08,960
Speaker 1: think those are all valid reasons. I think employees workers

329
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:11,520
Speaker 1: tend to agree that those are some really valid reasons

330
00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:14,000
Speaker 1: for going. But I think we need to begin to

331
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:17,240
Speaker 1: think about the workplace, the physical workplace as sort of

332
00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:18,920
Speaker 1: the way we used to think about an off site.

333
00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:21,160
Speaker 1: You know, you planned for an off site, you knew

334
00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:22,800
Speaker 1: when it was happening. There was a reason to go.

335
00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:25,440
Speaker 1: You had expectations, but what was going to be accomplished.

336
00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:29,000
Speaker 1: Give workers a reason to return to the workplace. It

337
00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:32,080
Speaker 1: isn't simply about returning to the way things were checking

338
00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:37,080
Speaker 1: a box. Make it about celebrating your accomplishments, or understanding

339
00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:39,040
Speaker 1: a new product launch and how you're gonna be successful

340
00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:42,080
Speaker 1: in the marketplace. Make it about developmental opportunities. To be

341
00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:45,720
Speaker 1: intentional about it. But give give a really good reason

342
00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:48,480
Speaker 1: for coming back, not simply let's just get back to normal,

343
00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:51,159
Speaker 1: because I think those days are gone. Rebecca, thanks so

344
00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:53,480
Speaker 1: much for joining us. Great to get your insight. As always,

345
00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:57,280
Speaker 1: Rebecca Ray, their executive vice president at the conference board,

346
00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:05,280
Speaker 1: Let's continue to talk about the jobs numbers. Then with

347
00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:09,080
Speaker 1: Tom Gimbal, founder and CEO of the sound network when

348
00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:13,359
Speaker 1: of leading staffing firms, UH the biggest staffing firms in

349
00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:15,920
Speaker 1: the country. Tom, thanks so much for joining us. I

350
00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:19,000
Speaker 1: gotta ask first about UM, the people you're placing. Are

351
00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:22,480
Speaker 1: they getting paid a lot more? Well, they're getting paid more.

352
00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:25,080
Speaker 1: There's no doubt about it that this market is what

353
00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:27,840
Speaker 1: people are seeing is talent is hard to come by.

354
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:30,280
Speaker 1: There is a labor shortage. We have yet to place

355
00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:32,639
Speaker 1: anybody for two and twelve million dollars. That would be

356
00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:36,639
Speaker 1: quite a fee, um. But but overall we're seeing it.

357
00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:39,679
Speaker 1: You know, it's it's not usually you say, oh, in

358
00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:44,200
Speaker 1: the tech based developers, elite sales people, things like that,

359
00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:50,680
Speaker 1: But in this market, people are getting five sometimes increases

360
00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:55,680
Speaker 1: when they make moves. And are they also demanding Tom

361
00:19:55,680 --> 00:20:00,199
Speaker 1: to work from home or to be able to UM

362
00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:02,520
Speaker 1: or to not be required to go to the office

363
00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:05,760
Speaker 1: five days a week. Well, that's the interesting thing is

364
00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:09,600
Speaker 1: now more and more companies are moving away from fully

365
00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:12,680
Speaker 1: remote and looking for people who are within a commuting

366
00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:16,560
Speaker 1: distance for some sort of hybrid. The more unique the

367
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:20,399
Speaker 1: skill set or UH in high demand and individual is,

368
00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:24,600
Speaker 1: the more preference they have. But we're not seeing that

369
00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:26,560
Speaker 1: to be a big deal. What you are seeing is

370
00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:29,199
Speaker 1: people won't even listen to a job. If something there

371
00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:32,080
Speaker 1: are people who want remote so badly they won't even listen.

372
00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:34,840
Speaker 1: It's not something that comes up in the negotiation. If

373
00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:37,320
Speaker 1: you're going into interview for a job, you're under the

374
00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:40,760
Speaker 1: assumption that usually it's gonna be a hybrid at the

375
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:44,840
Speaker 1: very least, unless they're telling you upfront. So what does

376
00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:47,040
Speaker 1: this report? Then? If you step back, Tom and look

377
00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:49,960
Speaker 1: at this report from the thirty five thousand of you, Um,

378
00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:53,360
Speaker 1: how does it look to you? It looks fantastic. If

379
00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:56,240
Speaker 1: I would have said to somebody a year ago, uh,

380
00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:59,200
Speaker 1: that twelve months later we'd have our twelfth consecutive month

381
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:01,960
Speaker 1: of over four a thousand jobs, Unemployment would be at

382
00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:06,840
Speaker 1: three point six percent UM and uh, the wages would

383
00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:09,840
Speaker 1: be increased and the participation rate would be increased. Everyone

384
00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:12,080
Speaker 1: would say, sign me up for that program. And if

385
00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:15,679
Speaker 1: the economists had predicted four thousand jobs instead of five thousand,

386
00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:18,760
Speaker 1: we'd be doing backflips, right, you know. The the the

387
00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:21,880
Speaker 1: economists get to get the judge statistically what they think

388
00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:24,639
Speaker 1: will happen, and us on on main Street, we're actually

389
00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:27,600
Speaker 1: doing the heavy lifting. And this job market is still

390
00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:29,720
Speaker 1: as good as I've ever seen, and we're seeing the

391
00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:33,000
Speaker 1: CEOs I'm talking to every single day. They're they're not

392
00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:35,959
Speaker 1: worried about the Ukraine, they're not worried about Russia. As

393
00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:37,760
Speaker 1: far as what's going on, they only have one fear,

394
00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:40,720
Speaker 1: and that's inflation. And and that's where I think we

395
00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:46,080
Speaker 1: should be really focusing our concerned domestically. Yeah, I mean, um,

396
00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:50,879
Speaker 1: it's okay for now. I guess as as companies pass

397
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:55,120
Speaker 1: on inflation to consumers, they're able to increase wages. But

398
00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:59,000
Speaker 1: how long can that last. You're gonna be in a

399
00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:01,520
Speaker 1: in a real tough situation. And I don't want to

400
00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:03,600
Speaker 1: be the doomsday guy. I think we're gonna be in

401
00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:05,800
Speaker 1: a really good market for the next twenty four to

402
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:09,000
Speaker 1: thirty six months. However, you get people that are renting

403
00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:14,240
Speaker 1: places and buying places, uh, based on an inflated salary,

404
00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:16,800
Speaker 1: and you hit a real recession. And what we had

405
00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:19,840
Speaker 1: wasn't a recession, it was a blip, you know. Two

406
00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:23,639
Speaker 1: thousand one, h two thousand nine, those were recessions. You

407
00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:26,320
Speaker 1: get that situation. People aren't gonna be able to pay

408
00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:29,240
Speaker 1: those rents and people are buying above their means. So

409
00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:32,720
Speaker 1: I do worry a little bit about inflation that continues

410
00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:36,120
Speaker 1: at this rate. Uh. And it's gotta it's gotta impact

411
00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:39,800
Speaker 1: commutes as well. Right, This is something that I guess employers,

412
00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:44,959
Speaker 1: or at least many employers are paying. Yeah. It's an

413
00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:48,000
Speaker 1: interesting dynamic, man, because what you have right now are

414
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:49,800
Speaker 1: people that want to work from home or they want

415
00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:52,560
Speaker 1: subsidies to come in. But then they also want their

416
00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:56,320
Speaker 1: Walgreens to be open seven, They want the stores to

417
00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:59,080
Speaker 1: deliver all the time, they want the products on the shelves,

418
00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:02,240
Speaker 1: they want their athletes and spring training. You know, white

419
00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:06,120
Speaker 1: collar workers have a very um selfish view from time

420
00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:08,960
Speaker 1: to time about what should be remote work and what

421
00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:12,400
Speaker 1: shouldn't be. And I'm I'm a firm believer that if

422
00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:15,160
Speaker 1: we want society to come back, we want inflation low,

423
00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:17,840
Speaker 1: uh at at a lower rate. We've got to make

424
00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:20,000
Speaker 1: sure that we can get the dry cleaners back open

425
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:23,200
Speaker 1: in the sundry stores, and and people going back into

426
00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:26,119
Speaker 1: the office because that goes to auto repair shops and

427
00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:29,040
Speaker 1: keeps the gasoline prices lower and and all of those

428
00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:31,640
Speaker 1: things that fuel the economy. So you can't you can't

429
00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:33,480
Speaker 1: have your cake and eat it too. Yeah, you should

430
00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:36,200
Speaker 1: see the I mean the stores around here in Midtown Manhattan,

431
00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:42,120
Speaker 1: which is an office society or an office culture, half

432
00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:45,719
Speaker 1: of them are still closed. It's just unbelievable because you know,

433
00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:49,280
Speaker 1: the entire workforce that used to supply all these delays

434
00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:52,159
Speaker 1: with the revenue, UM, has just stayed in Long Island,

435
00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:55,480
Speaker 1: New Jersey or Westchester rather than coming in and and

436
00:23:55,560 --> 00:24:00,000
Speaker 1: buying sandwiches. So yeah, I I totally understand what you're saying. Um,

437
00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:03,200
Speaker 1: do you think about the possibility of a wage price spiral?

438
00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:07,240
Speaker 1: Are you concerned about that? Our employers concerned about that? No?

439
00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:09,639
Speaker 1: I don't think so. I think right now things are

440
00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:11,840
Speaker 1: gonna things are starting to level off a little bit.

441
00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:14,960
Speaker 1: It's gonna be interesting because you know, every May, June, July,

442
00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:17,639
Speaker 1: we've got recent college graduates and none of the workforce,

443
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:20,840
Speaker 1: and those salaries are a lot higher, it looks like

444
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:24,640
Speaker 1: coming out than they were a year and two years ago. Um,

445
00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:26,520
Speaker 1: you know, the worst time to have come out was

446
00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:30,199
Speaker 1: in right, wages were really low. They've jumped up now

447
00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:32,760
Speaker 1: this year that they're they're a lot more. But I

448
00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:35,760
Speaker 1: don't think anything is gonna be too crazy, all right, Tom,

449
00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:38,320
Speaker 1: Great to get your take as usual, Tom, gimbal Is,
