As or Michael McKee said with some emotion 11 00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:36,320 Speaker 3: at two pm, made super hawkish. Fred I saw a 12 00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:40,080 Speaker 3: couple of research notes saying hawkish hawkish. I don't know 13 00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:42,720 Speaker 3: what hawkish means. I certainly don't know what hawkish squared 14 00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:46,519 Speaker 3: means as well, but there you have some piercing questions there, 15 00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:49,120 Speaker 3: and we've got some of the video to playback. That 16 00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:52,200 Speaker 3: did move the market, Lisa, what I would suggest here 17 00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:55,240 Speaker 3: with markets sort of a sigh of relief. We went 18 00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:58,880 Speaker 3: down off the statement, we came back with a nice 19 00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:02,240 Speaker 3: Nasdaq one hundred turn, Apple breaking out to new highs. 20 00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:04,560 Speaker 3: We may have time to get to that, but it 21 00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:07,720 Speaker 3: was in the two year yield a twenty eight basis 22 00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:11,760 Speaker 3: point swing to a much higher two year yield, resetting 23 00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:14,800 Speaker 3: to the new hawkish hawkish, and then we came in, 24 00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:17,040 Speaker 3: is he calm the markets? 25 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:20,160 Speaker 2: My takeaway is j Powell wants to sound hawkish. He 26 00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:22,840 Speaker 2: wanted to double down on super hawkishness, and he failed 27 00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 2: because basically the real key moment was that when you 28 00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:28,960 Speaker 2: couldn't commit to any July rate hike. To me, this 29 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:32,160 Speaker 2: stood out in response to a question about what the 30 00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:35,560 Speaker 2: change in the statement of economic projections to shift upward 31 00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:38,320 Speaker 2: fifty basis points of further rate hikes, what that meant 32 00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:39,000 Speaker 2: about July. 33 00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:39,640 Speaker 1: Take a listen. 34 00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:41,440 Speaker 4: We didn't make a decision about July. I mean, of 35 00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 4: course it came up in the meeting from time to time, 36 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:47,280 Speaker 4: but really the focus was on what to do today. 37 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:50,960 Speaker 4: I would say about about July two things. One decision 38 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:53,520 Speaker 4: hasn't been made to I do expect that it will 39 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:54,280 Speaker 4: be a live meeting. 40 00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:57,280 Speaker 2: The live meeting was not the same as we have 41 00:01:57,320 --> 00:01:59,480 Speaker 2: an indication that we are going to raise rates, and 42 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:01,800 Speaker 2: at that point you start to see the shift in markets, 43 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:04,080 Speaker 2: with equity starting to lift and getting it at one 44 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 2: point up as much as a half a percent on 45 00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 2: the Nasdaq, and you can see a real retracement of 46 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:11,799 Speaker 2: those bond yields. Basically, if you're not going to commit 47 00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:14,520 Speaker 2: to a July rate hike, why should we believe the 48 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:17,680 Speaker 2: average of a statement of economic projections by committee members? 49 00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 3: We chat Aaron a moment. We've got some very important 50 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:22,560 Speaker 3: stuff from some of the great academics across the nation. 51 00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:25,639 Speaker 3: I'm going to feature Jason Furman here in a bit. 52 00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 3: If you're just joining us, we welcome you on radio, 53 00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:32,320 Speaker 3: on television at Worldwide. Tom Keen and Lisa Bramwis. Jonathan 54 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:35,320 Speaker 3: Ferrell on assignment on one of three islands in Italy. 55 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:37,080 Speaker 3: I'm not sure which one is, Like you know, I 56 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:37,600 Speaker 3: think Capri. 57 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:41,680 Speaker 1: How do you call vacation assignment? I don't understand. 58 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 3: Because I'm American. We don't go on vacation. Little faraoh 59 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:46,920 Speaker 3: goes in holiday, which is a good and beautiful thing. 60 00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 3: We're gonna have some great conversation coming up here and 61 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:53,919 Speaker 3: in moments, Talia, do we have the Furman tweet here? 62 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:56,079 Speaker 3: I think this is too important. It's in a good 63 00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:59,359 Speaker 3: SAGIWI and the Jeffrey Rosenberg here in a moment, did 64 00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:02,520 Speaker 3: we get that this is Jason Furman of Harvard. Of course, 65 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,640 Speaker 3: with his public service to the nation and teaching, I 66 00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:09,480 Speaker 3: should say x ten at Harvard, which gives him great 67 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:14,400 Speaker 3: credit as well. The FOMC is signaling a baby step 68 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:18,320 Speaker 3: away from a belief in low equilibrium interest rates. The 69 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:22,360 Speaker 3: median long run FFR was unchanged, two and a half 70 00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:25,639 Speaker 3: of the central tenantcy shifted up, and then all three 71 00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:29,960 Speaker 3: of the lowest long run dots shifted up. Expect more 72 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 3: of this shift over time, Professor Furman of Harvard University. 73 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 3: Joining us on Jeffrey Rosenberg, portfolio manager of Systemic Multi 74 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 3: Strategy Fund at Blackrock. 75 00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 1: Oh, he's not good yet. 76 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:47,080 Speaker 3: Okay, we'll get to Jeffrey Rosenberg in a moment. Joining 77 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 3: us now our academic Michael McKee here, which I thought 78 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 3: what was great, Mic is for the first time in 79 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 3: age if someone had a ruder question than you, which 80 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 3: I think was very good. Michael McKee, Jason Furman, I think, 81 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 3: with summary here of the history that Mike I heard 82 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 3: in your voice at two o'clock, this is an extraordinary moment, Mike. 83 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 3: Is this where the FED begins to shift, where we're 84 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 3: heading up to our former vice chair? Clarity says so 85 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:20,479 Speaker 3: the Jason Furman alludes to that finally we're beginning to 86 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:22,600 Speaker 3: find a new level above two percent. 87 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:26,800 Speaker 5: Well, it may be the issue there is going to 88 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 5: be how long it takes inflation to come down, which 89 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:31,599 Speaker 5: is sort of the genesis of the question that I 90 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:34,120 Speaker 5: asked in terms of whether it's time or data that's 91 00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:36,120 Speaker 5: going to make a difference. I think a lot of 92 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:39,520 Speaker 5: what went into today's decision was the Reserve Bank of 93 00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 5: Australia and the Bank of Canada took rate moves off 94 00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:45,440 Speaker 5: the table, and the markets were then shocked when they 95 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 5: had to come back and raise rates again. So they 96 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:50,160 Speaker 5: don't know if they're going to need to raise rates again. 97 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,080 Speaker 5: They think if nothing changes that they may need to. 98 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:56,960 Speaker 5: They're giving themselves that flexibility. They don't want markets to 99 00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:00,400 Speaker 5: price in the end of tightening or any of rate 100 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 5: reductions in the near term. But Pole seemed to indicate 101 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:08,279 Speaker 5: that while they have these two rate moves priced into 102 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 5: their dot plot, it doesn't mean they're necessarily going to 103 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:15,240 Speaker 5: do them. They will see what happens with inflation with 104 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 5: the economy going forward. So July may be live, as 105 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:21,320 Speaker 5: he said, but if we don't see a lot of change, 106 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 5: I think you're going to see a lot of people 107 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 5: leaning towards the idea of the Fed holding again. 108 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 2: That I thought was really interesting, and you asked a 109 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,279 Speaker 2: great question which he did not answer. He really just 110 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 2: kept saying, look at the statement of economic projections, Look 111 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:35,839 Speaker 2: at the dot plot. How much we witnessing attention between 112 00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:39,920 Speaker 2: j Powell as an individual representative on the FMC versus 113 00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 2: the committee which is significantly more hawkish than he is. 114 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,360 Speaker 5: I think it's going to be very interesting, Lisa, to 115 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 5: listen to what the Fed officials have to say over 116 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:52,000 Speaker 5: the coming weeks, Because if you had asked where we 117 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:55,440 Speaker 5: would get dissents at this meeting, we would have said, 118 00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 5: and I think everybody on Wall Street would have said, 119 00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:00,039 Speaker 5: from the hawkish members. But now it appears that the 120 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:04,280 Speaker 5: hawks led the way, Powell going in, Jefferson going in, 121 00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:08,479 Speaker 5: and William's going in, essentially leaning towards the pause and 122 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:12,080 Speaker 5: leaning perhaps more Dubvish than others. So what was it 123 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:15,120 Speaker 5: that drew them into this idea of an additional two 124 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 5: rate moves? If they indeed joined in, it's hard to 125 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 5: imagine Powell not doing it. But there were some dots 126 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:25,960 Speaker 5: below the new median, but it does seem that the 127 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:30,640 Speaker 5: group as a whole group more hawkish. So what brought 128 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:34,160 Speaker 5: that on? And is their division? Was their division or 129 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 5: did we all kind of misread it. It's it be 130 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:38,279 Speaker 5: interesting to listen to their speeches in the next couple 131 00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 5: of weeks. 132 00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:41,200 Speaker 2: Agreed, and he even indicated that listen to their speeches 133 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 2: and they'll tell you what they think. Michael VICKI thank 134 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:44,840 Speaker 2: you so much as always for your terrific world and 135 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 2: just sort of saying right now we are seeing that 136 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:50,719 Speaker 2: lift reignite inequities NASDAC up three times on the percent 137 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:54,360 Speaker 2: as you really reassess the commitment that this FMC truly 138 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:56,400 Speaker 2: has trans rates next. 139 00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 3: Month critically, and this is perfect to go to Jeffrey 140 00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:00,839 Speaker 3: Rosenberg on the VICS, which is in the equity space. 141 00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:04,040 Speaker 3: This is the volatility measurement around the standard of course 142 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:07,920 Speaker 3: five hundred bursts down to a constructive thirteen point nine. 143 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:11,720 Speaker 3: A boy, we taken volatility out of the equity markets here, 144 00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 3: and of course Jeff Rosenberg that's part of his view 145 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:18,280 Speaker 3: as the systemic multi strategy fund manager for black Rock. 146 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 3: He's been so wonderful to be with surveillance here for 147 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:22,640 Speaker 3: a good amount of time. Jeff, I'm going to go 148 00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:24,280 Speaker 3: to the history right now. We'll get to the vix 149 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 3: in a moment and what it means for the yield space. 150 00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:30,880 Speaker 3: Professor Furman at Harvard says, today's a sea change. And 151 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:34,520 Speaker 3: finally we're getting the verbiage from our central bank to 152 00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 3: get away from what you know. I'm going to associate 153 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 3: this with John Taylor, where we had a run rate 154 00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:42,080 Speaker 3: under two percent one point eight one point seven percent. 155 00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:45,480 Speaker 3: We use two percent as a language, and finally we're 156 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:47,720 Speaker 3: going to start admitting we're going to come down to 157 00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:53,000 Speaker 3: something above two percent. Is that what hawkish hawkish meant today? 158 00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:55,960 Speaker 6: You know, it could be part of that Tom That's a. 159 00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:58,600 Speaker 7: That's a that's a huge deal long run, because it 160 00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:02,800 Speaker 7: implies that lot or space for the FED to reach 161 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 7: its terminal rate because the real neutral rate is higher 162 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 7: than anticipated. I'm not sure that's so clear. I think 163 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:13,080 Speaker 7: that's an interesting read. I think what's really clear here 164 00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,680 Speaker 7: in the market reaction is the FED, you know, mark 165 00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 7: to market and upgrade. 166 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:19,400 Speaker 6: It's upgraded its assessment. 167 00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:23,640 Speaker 7: Of the economy, and you know that's good news in 168 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:26,320 Speaker 7: some sense. This is about you know, really pushing back 169 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 7: hard against the recession. Consensus, the recession expectations from consensus 170 00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:38,640 Speaker 7: in terms of economics, and consistent refrain all year long 171 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:41,679 Speaker 7: that it's just around the corner. It's just around the corner, 172 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 7: not around the corner. And yes, you've got the FED 173 00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:47,440 Speaker 7: who's got to push back against that. But for the 174 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:50,280 Speaker 7: kind of back in and forth in financial markets is 175 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,600 Speaker 7: a little bit about, hey, this economy is a little 176 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:56,480 Speaker 7: bit more resilient, and Powell admitted it, it's been much 177 00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 7: more resilient to the five hundred basis points than they expect, 178 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:02,319 Speaker 7: than anyone expected, both in terms of the economy. 179 00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:05,199 Speaker 3: Jeff, to me, this is a foundational moment, and your 180 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:09,720 Speaker 3: colleague Waylee nailed this a couple of days ago, and 181 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:13,040 Speaker 3: that there just seems to be a resilience here that 182 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:17,439 Speaker 3: deserves a higher interest rate structure. Did we get wrong 183 00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:22,960 Speaker 3: the recession idea in the sense that for whatever reason, technology, demographics, 184 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 3: the other factors. Blenchard talks about that this is just 185 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:31,720 Speaker 3: simply a much more resilient American economy that we have 186 00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:33,079 Speaker 3: to deal with in finance. 187 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 7: Yeah, and resilient to what resilient to interest rate sensitivity? 188 00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:38,280 Speaker 8: Right? 189 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 7: I got done talking about housing interest rate sensitive sectors 190 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:45,160 Speaker 7: they're the most, they're the fastest to respond. 191 00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 6: Yes, we've seen that. What we haven't seen is the 192 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:50,160 Speaker 6: rest of the economy. And so what that might. 193 00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:55,080 Speaker 7: Imply is a lot less interest rate sensitivity to tightening, 194 00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:58,400 Speaker 7: and higher interest rate than is expected. And so either 195 00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 7: you need a lot more and what's really missing here 196 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,120 Speaker 7: is the admission that you need to do a lot 197 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:06,920 Speaker 7: more damage to the labor markets to really reign in 198 00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:07,640 Speaker 7: that inflation. 199 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:08,840 Speaker 6: Otherwise you're going. 200 00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:11,720 Speaker 7: To be living with a lot longer, more persistent inflation 201 00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 7: than a lot of the forecasts, including the FED, and 202 00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:17,319 Speaker 7: these updated SAP are implying. 203 00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:20,320 Speaker 2: Jeff, do you believe Fed Chair J Powell that this 204 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:21,679 Speaker 2: FED is going to go twice more? 205 00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 7: I think twice more is not too high of a bar. 206 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:29,000 Speaker 7: I think the market had one more. A little bit 207 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:32,120 Speaker 7: of the surprise in the sep here is that you've 208 00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:35,439 Speaker 7: got two more. I don't really think that's the surprise. 209 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:37,880 Speaker 7: I think the surprise is what I was just sort 210 00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:42,800 Speaker 7: of implying that, if indeed you don't see inflation. 211 00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:44,720 Speaker 6: Respond more aggressively. 212 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 7: And to Tom's first question, if indeed the real neutral 213 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:52,200 Speaker 7: rate is much higher than what Williams was just highlighting 214 00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:55,280 Speaker 7: in a recent speech. Yes, and what people think is, 215 00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 7: you know, no change from the pre COVID environment, then 216 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:02,720 Speaker 7: that terminal rate is much higher. Not fifty basis points, 217 00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:05,400 Speaker 7: but hundreds of basis points, and that would end up 218 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:07,600 Speaker 7: being a big surprise. I'm not saying that's where we're going. 219 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:10,960 Speaker 7: But the longer that you don't see the response in 220 00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:15,280 Speaker 7: labor markets in inflation, the more the data is telling 221 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:18,320 Speaker 7: you that you're not tight in terms of policy, and 222 00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:20,560 Speaker 7: to get tight you got to go a much higher. 223 00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:23,000 Speaker 2: If that's the case, then why are equity markets up 224 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:25,960 Speaker 2: right now? Why is the Nasdaq actually gaining stability and 225 00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:29,240 Speaker 2: then some even on the heels of projected further tightening. 226 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:32,760 Speaker 7: So I think, you know, there's a big story around 227 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 7: the Nasdaq and some concentration issues around spots. 228 00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:41,040 Speaker 6: Tech is back as sort of the safe haven and 229 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:41,880 Speaker 6: the safe. 230 00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:43,280 Speaker 7: Place to go, so you have a little bit of 231 00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:45,719 Speaker 7: that issue. It's not a high breadth market move. 232 00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:48,280 Speaker 2: You well, one a second, but Jeff, I'm sorry to interrupt, 233 00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:50,640 Speaker 2: and I realized this is difficult, but this is important 234 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:53,280 Speaker 2: because it's not just what it has been doing. It 235 00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:56,520 Speaker 2: is in response to what we saw today that as 236 00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:59,319 Speaker 2: j Powell started to talk, and as he was basically 237 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:01,760 Speaker 2: saying they have no committed to a July rate hike, 238 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:06,040 Speaker 2: you saw a real enthusiasm kind of percolate up. Doesn't 239 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:08,640 Speaker 2: that tell you something more than just simply AI hype. 240 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 6: Well, it is more than that. 241 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:14,120 Speaker 7: And what I was going to extend that is it's 242 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 7: back to what is the safe haven for equity investors. 243 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:21,000 Speaker 7: The safe haven is large cap tech and so you've 244 00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:24,839 Speaker 7: added a few new semiconductor companies in that list. We 245 00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:30,280 Speaker 7: got new funny acronyms to describe that new equity market concentration. 246 00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 7: But it's about where do I go when I'm uncertain. 247 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:36,959 Speaker 7: I go into these large cap companies because that's what's say. 248 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:39,560 Speaker 7: If you want to see the broader economic impact, then 249 00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:41,520 Speaker 7: you got to look at Russell two thousand. You got 250 00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:43,400 Speaker 7: to look at small caps and you see a big 251 00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:46,000 Speaker 7: gap in that performance today. I think that's where you 252 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 7: search more about the economic sensitivity and where the vulnerabilities. 253 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:52,520 Speaker 6: Thank you very much for pulling that up. 254 00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:55,199 Speaker 7: And that's where you see the disconnected and that's where 255 00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:58,480 Speaker 7: I think you can square somewhat of the Oh that's 256 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:00,880 Speaker 7: got to do more, that's not so good for the economy. 257 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 6: Okay, so that's not so. 258 00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:06,280 Speaker 7: Good for the movement into economic sensitive stuff. If you 259 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:08,120 Speaker 7: if you run this back a little bit further from 260 00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 7: the beginning of the month, from the end of May payrolls, 261 00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 7: you see Russell was actually leading the stock markets. 262 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:15,760 Speaker 6: And so this kind of rotation is. 263 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:17,640 Speaker 7: About uh oh, all right, I go back to my 264 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:20,920 Speaker 7: safe haven. It's just my safe haven in this new 265 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:23,960 Speaker 7: world is large cap tech. It's not the two The 266 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:26,680 Speaker 7: Fed's raising rates, and so this is where you see 267 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:27,600 Speaker 7: market dynamics going. 268 00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:29,000 Speaker 6: I think it's all very consistent. 269 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:32,080 Speaker 3: Jeff Rosenberg, thank you so much today with black Rock 270 00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:34,400 Speaker 3: on a busy, busy afternoon. You want to get Michael 271 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:37,360 Speaker 3: McKeon here for one more question before we get to 272 00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:40,800 Speaker 3: doctor Carpenter as well. Mike, I'm going to assume the 273 00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:45,000 Speaker 3: dots of twenty twenty three, I was twenty five sprawl 274 00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:48,280 Speaker 3: from Bullard to Goulesby. What are we going to hear 275 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:51,480 Speaker 3: in the next FED speak Derby? How do all these 276 00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:55,320 Speaker 3: speakers deal with a hawkish hawkish statement? 277 00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:58,400 Speaker 5: Well, I think first of all, you throw out the 278 00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:01,200 Speaker 5: twenty twenty five dots because those are just sort of 279 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:02,240 Speaker 5: darts on a board. 280 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:06,559 Speaker 8: They don't have Yes, you may. 281 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:09,400 Speaker 5: They don't have any idea where we're going to be 282 00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 5: in twenty twenty five. They don't know about twenty twenty four. 283 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:15,400 Speaker 5: As Powell admitted today, the economy has surprised with its 284 00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:18,559 Speaker 5: strength this year, and we got these surprising move in 285 00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:21,200 Speaker 5: the dot plot this time. So I wouldn't look that 286 00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:23,480 Speaker 5: far out. But I think what you do want to 287 00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:27,920 Speaker 5: say is that we're going to see who can define 288 00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:31,880 Speaker 5: what it would take for them to move again. Obviously 289 00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 5: Austin Golesby probably doesn't want to do very much. But 290 00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 5: if the Fed is going to move, if Jim Bullard 291 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:39,120 Speaker 5: is going to move, is it going to be that 292 00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:42,920 Speaker 5: time question, the fact that inflation doesn't come down, or 293 00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:45,280 Speaker 5: is it going to be the fact that inflation goes 294 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:46,200 Speaker 5: back up again. 295 00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:47,760 Speaker 8: That's what they need to find out. 296 00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:51,040 Speaker 2: Based on this question that Tom is rightly asking. Are 297 00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:53,960 Speaker 2: you seeing this shift as evidenced by some of these 298 00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:57,200 Speaker 2: projections and even what we heard from j Powell? Are 299 00:14:57,240 --> 00:15:00,120 Speaker 2: they moving the terminal rate higher than what we've I'm 300 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:00,720 Speaker 2: accustomed to. 301 00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:03,400 Speaker 8: Well, yes, I think they are. 302 00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:07,160 Speaker 5: They do think that we could go to as much 303 00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 5: as five and three quarters percent. 304 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 8: Or six percent. 305 00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:13,000 Speaker 5: The issue is if they start to get that high, 306 00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:15,680 Speaker 5: what second round effects are there, and so they're going 307 00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:17,840 Speaker 5: to be reluctant to move, but they want to leave 308 00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:21,360 Speaker 5: that possibility open because the economy has been so strong 309 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:23,920 Speaker 5: and they don't think that it is going to react 310 00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:27,520 Speaker 5: as it has in the past. And one interesting thing 311 00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 5: today is by moving up to one percent for a 312 00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:32,080 Speaker 5: GDP growth figure this year, they're. 313 00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:34,359 Speaker 8: Implicitly pricing out a recession. 314 00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:36,720 Speaker 5: So while pal says the risks are still onto the 315 00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:39,920 Speaker 5: upside for inflation, they're not to the downside anymore, at 316 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:42,200 Speaker 5: least as far as the Fed is concerned, it seems, 317 00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:45,760 Speaker 5: with going too far, tightening too much and sending the 318 00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:47,080 Speaker 5: economy into contraction. 319 00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:50,360 Speaker 3: Michael McKeith, thank you so much, really really exceptional. They're 320 00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:52,880 Speaker 3: reporting us out at two o'clock and how original this 321 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:55,960 Speaker 3: statement was today, mister McKee in charge of all of 322 00:15:56,000 --> 00:16:00,960 Speaker 3: our economic coverage, we finished strong. Lisa with the or ghost. 323 00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:03,560 Speaker 2: With someone who has extensive experience at the Federal Reserve 324 00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:06,680 Speaker 2: and beyond in government making some of these decisions and 325 00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:10,160 Speaker 2: seeing the mechanics of it. Someone who currently heads the 326 00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:13,800 Speaker 2: economics team as global chief Economist at Morgan Stanley, Seth 327 00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:17,120 Speaker 2: Carpenter joining us now, and I am curious your reaction. 328 00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:20,720 Speaker 2: Why are markets up if the FED is shifting upward 329 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:22,800 Speaker 2: its expectation of terminal rates. 330 00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:26,080 Speaker 9: Yeah, I think there was a lot to impact there. 331 00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:28,240 Speaker 9: I think Lisa was listening to the show earlier and 332 00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:32,880 Speaker 9: you pointed out that Powell was unwilling to commit to July, 333 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:35,760 Speaker 9: called it a live meeting, which I think makes sense, 334 00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:38,080 Speaker 9: but he didn't want to lock himself in. And I 335 00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 9: think the equity market might be saying, gosh, maybe we 336 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:43,480 Speaker 9: got off easy. There could have been an even more 337 00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:46,920 Speaker 9: hawkish outcome. Look what happened with the dots, and now 338 00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:50,000 Speaker 9: Powell is saying, Okay, that's not baked in the cake. 339 00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 8: So I think your analysis earlier was pretty. 340 00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 1: Spot on at this point. 341 00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:56,560 Speaker 2: Was that a failure at a time when inflation has 342 00:16:56,600 --> 00:17:00,160 Speaker 2: been sticky or is it FED seeing something that perhaps 343 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:03,920 Speaker 2: others are overlooking in terms of how quickly this economy 344 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:04,879 Speaker 2: is seeing justinflation. 345 00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:08,399 Speaker 9: I wouldn't call it a failure, and I don't know 346 00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:10,840 Speaker 9: that they're seeing something that other people are. And I 347 00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:14,400 Speaker 9: think one way you can interpret the rates market reaction, 348 00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:18,439 Speaker 9: which is say, not solely pricing in what dot plot says, 349 00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:22,720 Speaker 9: is the market understands that the FED decisions will be 350 00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:25,440 Speaker 9: dependent on the incoming data, and I don't think the 351 00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:28,399 Speaker 9: market shares the view that inflation is going to be 352 00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:30,480 Speaker 9: nearly as high as what the Fed's written down. 353 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:32,560 Speaker 8: Their forecast for core. 354 00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:35,159 Speaker 9: PCE inflation at the end of this year went up 355 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 9: by a sizeable amount. Looking at my colleague Ellen Zenner 356 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:43,400 Speaker 9: and her team's forecast for CPI inflation, just the next 357 00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:46,000 Speaker 9: print that we get next month, it's going to be really, 358 00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:49,080 Speaker 9: really hard to get anywhere close to the Fed's core 359 00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:52,040 Speaker 9: inflation forecast for this year. And so if we're right, 360 00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:54,080 Speaker 9: and if the market's right on where inflation is going 361 00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:57,080 Speaker 9: to go for the next print, boyd, the committee probably 362 00:17:57,119 --> 00:17:58,560 Speaker 9: will be seeing a different tune. 363 00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:00,600 Speaker 8: I think that's part of what's going on. 364 00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:03,400 Speaker 9: That will actually, I think did a reasonably good job 365 00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:07,040 Speaker 9: keeping that hawkish option there while not having a hike 366 00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:07,639 Speaker 9: at this meeting. 367 00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:10,399 Speaker 3: It's original territory to say the least focus is not 368 00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:14,200 Speaker 3: a cliche. This is not something Seth. Carpenter was taught 369 00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:17,640 Speaker 3: at Princeton by a guy named Bernanki and Alan Blinder 370 00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:22,080 Speaker 3: and other greats of a Princeidon. Doctor Carpenter, I look 371 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:24,359 Speaker 3: at where we are, and if I can state it 372 00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:29,720 Speaker 3: is original territory, it's in some form original economics. Do 373 00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:33,040 Speaker 3: we just simply have to really start thinking of a 374 00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:38,040 Speaker 3: higher our start is Jeff Rosenberg said, maybe away from 375 00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:41,080 Speaker 3: what John Williams codified a few weeks ago. 376 00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:45,399 Speaker 9: I'm not convinced that we have enough information yet to 377 00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:48,480 Speaker 9: get there. And in fact, any estimation that gets done 378 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:51,720 Speaker 9: of our star just takes so many years of data 379 00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:53,320 Speaker 9: to get any sort of precision on it. 380 00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:55,280 Speaker 8: And the committee really. 381 00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:57,760 Speaker 9: Has to make decisions at a meeting by meeting basis. 382 00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:00,600 Speaker 9: So they're going to do in practice what all of 383 00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:03,919 Speaker 9: those fancy statistical techniques do, which is look at the 384 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:07,600 Speaker 9: data and ask the question, given where the industrate is now, 385 00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:10,800 Speaker 9: is inflation rising or falling? Is the economy slowing or 386 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:13,680 Speaker 9: speeding up? And if the answer is inflation's coming down 387 00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:15,600 Speaker 9: a bit and the economy is slowing down a bit, 388 00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:19,800 Speaker 9: then you just conclude we're above are star. It's literally 389 00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:22,000 Speaker 9: as simple as that, and in real time, it is 390 00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:23,040 Speaker 9: the best that they can do. 391 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:27,479 Speaker 3: I first met ellen Zettner in a true expertise of 392 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:31,359 Speaker 3: measuring the American consumer. I believe it saw a FED 393 00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:34,720 Speaker 3: today walk greatly away from a recession call. Maybe we'll 394 00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:38,520 Speaker 3: see contractions slow down in some form of stag nation. 395 00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:42,640 Speaker 3: Who knows, but doctor Carpenter. If I look at Alan 396 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:46,679 Speaker 3: Zettner's study of the American consumer, the great miscall of 397 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:50,560 Speaker 3: the last six months is this is a good economy. 398 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:54,240 Speaker 3: We are buoyant, we are spending money. Do you see 399 00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:57,479 Speaker 3: any amendment of that today? I mean, can we believe 400 00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:01,720 Speaker 3: in that forward that it's a better than good econom. 401 00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:04,959 Speaker 9: So good is in the eye of the beholder a bit. 402 00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:07,880 Speaker 9: I mean, the unemployment rate is quite low. We've had 403 00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:11,040 Speaker 9: spending hold up. But I would just stress we have 404 00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:13,879 Speaker 9: had here at Morgan Stanley since the beginning of this 405 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:16,920 Speaker 9: rate hiking cycle, a call that we would get as 406 00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:19,440 Speaker 9: soft landing. We think inflation is coming down, we think 407 00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:22,320 Speaker 9: inflation will continue to come down. But we have never 408 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,119 Speaker 9: had as a baseline forecast of the US economy we 409 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:29,040 Speaker 9: would go into recession. And I feel really comfortable that 410 00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 9: we had that view before that we're sticking to that 411 00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:31,640 Speaker 9: view now. 412 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:34,919 Speaker 2: Jeff Rosenberg had an interesting comment when he was looking 413 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:38,600 Speaker 2: at the performance of the Nasdaq as per usual these days, 414 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:40,639 Speaker 2: seeing gaines on both the S and P and the 415 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:44,320 Speaker 2: Nasdaq and then looking at nearly a percent loss on 416 00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:47,119 Speaker 2: the Russell two thousand and basically this goes into the 417 00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:50,560 Speaker 2: haven stocks. The haven assets are the big companies and 418 00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:54,000 Speaker 2: the smaller ones are being increasingly left behind. Even if 419 00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 2: we do get a soft landing, how is that dynamic 420 00:20:57,200 --> 00:21:01,240 Speaker 2: going to rejigger the haves emma have nots in corporate America. 421 00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:06,280 Speaker 9: I think there's just a whole set of cross currents 422 00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:08,920 Speaker 9: going on here. And as we often like to say, 423 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:11,399 Speaker 9: the economy is not the market. In the market is 424 00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:14,919 Speaker 9: not the economy. We do think there's still more slowing 425 00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:16,880 Speaker 9: to happen. There's probably going to be a little bit 426 00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:20,000 Speaker 9: more slowing going on in some of the good sectors 427 00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:22,840 Speaker 9: than in the services sector, and so that's going to 428 00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:24,840 Speaker 9: change a bit who the winners and the losers are. 429 00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:27,320 Speaker 9: We do think Europe is going to be slow as well, 430 00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:29,800 Speaker 9: and so those companies that are exposed to the rest 431 00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:31,800 Speaker 9: of the world through exports are probably going to fare 432 00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:34,400 Speaker 9: a bit differently than those that are just domestically focused. 433 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:37,040 Speaker 9: So I think it is a very very tricky time 434 00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:40,640 Speaker 9: now for investors to try to parse out just from 435 00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:42,560 Speaker 9: the headline macro numbers, what is going to. 436 00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:45,320 Speaker 8: Mean for the individual components of the equity market. 437 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:48,480 Speaker 2: Are you seeing signs set of material disinflation on the 438 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:51,040 Speaker 2: wage front at a time when Jay Powell did talk 439 00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 2: about the fact that there was some sort of right 440 00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:57,520 Speaker 2: sizing or in the balance between supply and demand for labor, 441 00:21:57,880 --> 00:21:59,800 Speaker 2: are you seeing signs that there is going to be 442 00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 2: a significant drop bar resistant area that remains. 443 00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:04,600 Speaker 1: Sticky even as you see disinflation in goods. 444 00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:08,160 Speaker 9: So two critical points that I would make here. One 445 00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:11,840 Speaker 9: is we have been just pounding the table for quite 446 00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 9: some time that the labor market is tight, but it's 447 00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:17,600 Speaker 9: tight in the sense that they're actually there's a bit 448 00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:19,840 Speaker 9: of a shortage of workers relative to the amount of 449 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:22,680 Speaker 9: economic activity. So we can get the economy to slow 450 00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:26,080 Speaker 9: down without there having to be a whole wave of layoffs. 451 00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:28,159 Speaker 9: And that's part of our thesis for a soft landing. 452 00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:30,800 Speaker 9: And I think Powell sort of nodded in that direction 453 00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:33,920 Speaker 9: by pointing out that vacancies are coming down, hirings are 454 00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:36,160 Speaker 9: coming down, but firings are not really going. 455 00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:36,360 Speaker 8: Up a lot. 456 00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:38,760 Speaker 9: So I think that's the first point. The second point 457 00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:42,119 Speaker 9: that I think is very much worth emphasizing. However, and 458 00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:43,920 Speaker 9: Jay Powell was asked about this. 459 00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:44,360 Speaker 8: A little bit. 460 00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:47,679 Speaker 9: He referred to the Bernanki and Blanchard paper. But we 461 00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:50,480 Speaker 9: have been saying now from several quarters in a row. 462 00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:55,680 Speaker 9: People overestimate how critical wage inflation is for the resulting 463 00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:59,639 Speaker 9: consumer price inflation. They are clearly correlated. But most of 464 00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:03,440 Speaker 9: the direct action of caudality is from consumer prices to wages. 465 00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:05,880 Speaker 9: I am not worried about the current setting of wage 466 00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:08,679 Speaker 9: inflation being the thing that drives inflation higher. 467 00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:11,240 Speaker 3: So the carpenter, I've got two and a half minutes left. 468 00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:14,400 Speaker 3: Let's look at the heritage of Morgan Stanley economics. Steve 469 00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:18,960 Speaker 3: Roach invented it. You followed on with great international economics. 470 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:19,560 Speaker 8: You come down the. 471 00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 3: Ramp at the Hong Kong Airport and there are the 472 00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:26,240 Speaker 3: two billboards. It's Morgan Stanley, Greet you to China, Greet 473 00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:29,320 Speaker 3: you to Hong Kong. And certainly it changed Hong Kong. 474 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:33,159 Speaker 3: Now our Secretary of State will visit China. That is 475 00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:36,239 Speaker 3: in the news today. And the great mystery is the 476 00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:40,240 Speaker 3: strength of the Chinese economy and what it means for America. 477 00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:43,400 Speaker 3: What is the reporting of Morgan Stanley on the strength 478 00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:45,080 Speaker 3: of the Chinese economy. 479 00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 9: Well, we remain reasonably upbeat about the outlook for Chinese 480 00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:52,600 Speaker 9: economic growth this year, and it has been such a 481 00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:56,240 Speaker 9: roller coaster over time. We were bullish on China a 482 00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:59,040 Speaker 9: bit before the market was, and then the market got 483 00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:01,320 Speaker 9: way over at SKI when the first quarter data came 484 00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:03,040 Speaker 9: out and the opening. 485 00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:04,160 Speaker 8: Up process started happening. 486 00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:07,240 Speaker 9: Now I see lots of people getting super bullish on China, 487 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:09,919 Speaker 9: and our view is and has been, it will be 488 00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:12,879 Speaker 9: domestic spending leading the way. It will be domestic spending 489 00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:16,040 Speaker 9: on services, that's the biggest part of it. And if 490 00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:18,800 Speaker 9: and when the rest of the economy starts to weaken 491 00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:21,560 Speaker 9: as we have started to see for some Q two data, 492 00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:24,679 Speaker 9: there's going to be some policy support coming out to 493 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:28,200 Speaker 9: keep the housing market from collapsing again, to keep infrastructure 494 00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:30,960 Speaker 9: from being a drag on the economy. But no two 495 00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:33,640 Speaker 9: ways about it, we think China's going to have far 496 00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:37,040 Speaker 9: exceed its official five percent growth rate target this year. 497 00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:39,600 Speaker 2: Seth Carpenter, thank you so much for taking the time 498 00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:41,480 Speaker 2: as always, and we look forward to catching up with 499 00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:44,560 Speaker 2: you throughout the weeks ahead as we continue to contemplate 500 00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 2: the pace of disinflation and the nexcess of China, which 501 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:50,440 Speaker 2: is actually really interesting, this idea that any stimulus could 502 00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:53,440 Speaker 2: then reignite some of the growth that people have been 503 00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:53,760 Speaker 2: looking for. 504 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:56,720 Speaker 3: And it goes right over to the ramifications of thees 505 00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:01,600 Speaker 3: ESB easier, good afternoon, folks here for fifteen hours. And 506 00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:04,680 Speaker 3: what it goes over to, Lisa, here is the ECB 507 00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:07,920 Speaker 3: and how they react to a hawkish hawkish fed. 508 00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:11,000 Speaker 2: Right, the idea of a hawkish skip, a super hawkish 509 00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:14,399 Speaker 2: skip over to you, Christine Legard. Tomorrow we will hear 510 00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:17,160 Speaker 2: from our here's the score in markets, an ASTAC still 511 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:19,119 Speaker 2: maintaining a gain app and tens of percent on the 512 00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:21,240 Speaker 2: S and P down about a tenth of a percent. 513 00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:23,479 Speaker 2: But I keep going back to what Jeff Rosenberg had 514 00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:25,920 Speaker 2: to say about the Russell two thousand. There you're seeing 515 00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:31,200 Speaker 2: a material decline, regardless of any potential optimism about perhaps 516 00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:34,480 Speaker 2: fewer rate hikes or a temperate fed. That is where 517 00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:37,000 Speaker 2: you're seeing it sell off almost a percent. As people 518 00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:39,280 Speaker 2: take a look at smaller companies and how much they're 519 00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:40,280 Speaker 2: going to struggle. 520 00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:41,919 Speaker 3: Or they take a look at big companies, as we 521 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:45,320 Speaker 3: showed Apple earlier, buttressed ride up against those recent highs, 522 00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:49,160 Speaker 3: a little bit away from being a three trillion dollar company, 523 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:51,119 Speaker 3: and to me, it's again I go back to my 524 00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:53,680 Speaker 3: arch theme to Americas that have and they have nots 525 00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:56,240 Speaker 3: and of course Chairman Paul trying to speak to both 526 00:25:56,359 --> 00:25:59,160 Speaker 3: parts of our economy. Let's be honest, there's a huge 527 00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:00,399 Speaker 3: part of America flat in. 528 00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:02,639 Speaker 2: Their back, which really is perhaps the reason why he 529 00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:05,760 Speaker 2: started with saying our dual mandates, they want to support employment, 530 00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:08,320 Speaker 2: they want to bring inflation down. That was a nod 531 00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:10,359 Speaker 2: perhaps to some of the political pressures. 532 00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:12,879 Speaker 3: We're looking at the Marcus now the down negative two 533 00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:15,280 Speaker 3: sixty six.
