8
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:25,680
Speaker 1: we're seeing markets rebound pretty strongly here with the the

9
00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:29,040
Speaker 1: SNP up about one percent. We had some good, very

10
00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:31,159
Speaker 1: good consumer confidence day to come out this morning, so

11
00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:32,960
Speaker 1: that's clearly supporting the market. To get a sense of

12
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:35,440
Speaker 1: kind of where we are right now, we welcome at

13
00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:38,159
Speaker 1: Lisa Chalotte. She's a chief investment officer Wealth Management and

14
00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:41,559
Speaker 1: Morgan Stanley. They got like a gazillion dollars under management

15
00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:44,840
Speaker 1: two point for eight trillion to be more precise. Lisa,

16
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:46,919
Speaker 1: thanks so much for joining us on our Bloomberg Interactive

17
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:49,560
Speaker 1: Broker studio. So how do you put yesterday in today

18
00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:52,920
Speaker 1: kind of in context? Because folks out there driving around

19
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:56,560
Speaker 1: there saying, wow, yesterday was really ugly, but what's costing

20
00:00:56,600 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 1: today's bounce? Back. Yeah, So yesterday was very much about

21
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:04,080
Speaker 1: out a classical global growth scare UH. And we get

22
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:07,000
Speaker 1: these every now and then, UH, and they very often

23
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:10,440
Speaker 1: lead to market sell offs. And you know, the idea,

24
00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:16,280
Speaker 1: UH is basically that UH, the nascent rebound that we

25
00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:21,760
Speaker 1: have potentially we're beginning to see might get curtailed by

26
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:25,520
Speaker 1: the spread of coronavirus and and the idea that the

27
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 1: rebound that may have begun in China gets stalled. And

28
00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:32,640
Speaker 1: I think that that's really what the markets were obsessed

29
00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:36,920
Speaker 1: with yesterday. All that being said, when the dust settles

30
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:40,360
Speaker 1: and the markets, UM, you know, sold off. I think

31
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:45,280
Speaker 1: there are a lot of investors who believe, UH rightfully

32
00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 1: that the US is disconnected in many ways from the

33
00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:53,800
Speaker 1: global economy is kind of UH in oasis. Only nine

34
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:59,160
Speaker 1: percent of net GDP, of net trade UH is related

35
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:02,400
Speaker 1: UH do DP is related to trade UH, And so

36
00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:04,600
Speaker 1: in many ways, the US is very much a domestic

37
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:08,359
Speaker 1: oriented economy. And so you come into today UH with

38
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:14,880
Speaker 1: ample liquidity UM still extraordinary sentiment and positioning people wanting

39
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:17,440
Speaker 1: to be long this market. UH, and you get a

40
00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:19,800
Speaker 1: little piece of data that says the US consumer, which

41
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:23,880
Speaker 1: is of the mix, is UM still feeling good. Uh,

42
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:26,160
Speaker 1: and people are willing to say, yeah, we're gonna weather

43
00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:28,520
Speaker 1: this storm to yeah, this storm being a one point

44
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:31,560
Speaker 1: six percent decline yesterday and today we're up almost a percent.

45
00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:34,840
Speaker 1: So uh, these these huge moves are are sort of

46
00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:38,960
Speaker 1: infantestable and historical perspective, But nowadays, I guess volatility has

47
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:41,760
Speaker 1: been killed. But I am curious. Right now we're seeing uh,

48
00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:46,560
Speaker 1: financial conditions at all time the easiest ever based on

49
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:50,119
Speaker 1: a Chicago FED and St. Louis FED measures coming out

50
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:53,480
Speaker 1: in the past few weeks. Capex, though continuing to trend lower.

51
00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:57,680
Speaker 1: US GDP growth still only two percent. I'm trying to

52
00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:01,400
Speaker 1: square the idea of relatively slow ish growth, lack of

53
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:06,320
Speaker 1: wage inflation, lack of capital expenditures on the part of companies,

54
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:10,960
Speaker 1: with this incredibly strong job confidence and and just really

55
00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:13,760
Speaker 1: low jobless rates. What am I missing? These pieces don't

56
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:17,519
Speaker 1: seem to go together. Yes, they don't. UM. And so

57
00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 1: you know what we have very often said is, look,

58
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:22,919
Speaker 1: the lack of inflation in the real economy UM has

59
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 1: completely shown up in financial asset markets. UM. We know

60
00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:28,720
Speaker 1: that for the past eleven years we've been in a

61
00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:32,560
Speaker 1: pretty profound bowl market UM where U s docks have

62
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:36,640
Speaker 1: compounded at about four which is two times normal. UM.

63
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:39,640
Speaker 1: We think a lot of the provision of FED liquidity,

64
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:44,240
Speaker 1: and you noted financial conditions among the easiest they've ever been. UM.

65
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:48,839
Speaker 1: That liquidity has found its way to financial assets UH

66
00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:53,160
Speaker 1: and been recycled not into fundamental capital spending and fundamental

67
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:56,560
Speaker 1: capital formation, but into share repurchases and a return of

68
00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 1: capital UH to UH to shareholders. So there's been the

69
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:03,400
Speaker 1: huge wealth transfer UH and many of our clients and

70
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 1: certainly investors in the stock markets have benefited from that.

71
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:10,440
Speaker 1: But that's where the inflation is UM. In the real economy. UH.

72
00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 1: The real economy itself has really been struggling over this

73
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:20,800
Speaker 1: last decade with UM reasonably weak UH working age population

74
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:24,680
Speaker 1: growth UM and reasonably weak productivity growth UH. And so

75
00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 1: we've kind of been bouncing around this two to three

76
00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:32,239
Speaker 1: percent UH. And even though we have UM low unemployment UM,

77
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 1: we have not seen wage pressures UH. And so as

78
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:40,599
Speaker 1: a result, UM, we haven't seen the classical capital for

79
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:46,279
Speaker 1: labor substitution effects that you typically get UH end of cycle.

80
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,240
Speaker 1: What we've seen is companies saying, hey, I can get

81
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:51,640
Speaker 1: away with hiring people. I don't really pay them anything.

82
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:54,560
Speaker 1: I don't give them wage increases. UM. So I'll just

83
00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:56,560
Speaker 1: you know, I'll hold them in there as long as

84
00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:59,520
Speaker 1: as the cycle holds up as good enough. And that's

85
00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:02,400
Speaker 1: what we've been this good enough. So I'm looking at

86
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:06,960
Speaker 1: your tactical asset allocation UH, and the global equities underweight

87
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:10,520
Speaker 1: the US but overweight emerging markets international. What's your thoughts

88
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:13,200
Speaker 1: behind that? So look, our our thoughts there are really

89
00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:16,080
Speaker 1: around relative valuation. You know, we've been in at this

90
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:19,239
Speaker 1: period as we talked about for the last eleven years

91
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:24,159
Speaker 1: where US markets have profound the outperformed um the other regions,

92
00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:26,320
Speaker 1: and as a result, we have a very very strong

93
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:31,120
Speaker 1: US dollar UM. So as we look at relative valuations today, UM,

94
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:33,440
Speaker 1: you know, we see the US and and really the

95
00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:37,720
Speaker 1: top decile of p ratios for the last hundred years,

96
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:41,040
Speaker 1: it's it's getting to be an expensive market. UM. We

97
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:44,479
Speaker 1: know that on an equity risk premium basis or adjusted

98
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:48,480
Speaker 1: for low interest rates, you know, evaluations are not yet extreme.

99
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:51,240
Speaker 1: But in terms of nominal ps UM, the US market

100
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:54,800
Speaker 1: is really um, you know, getting expensive at at nine

101
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:58,159
Speaker 1: times at nineteen times forward. So our view is that

102
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:02,760
Speaker 1: as we look into t any the improvement in global

103
00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:05,280
Speaker 1: growth that we thought was going to come both cyclically

104
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:08,360
Speaker 1: and from the trade deal. Really we think has the

105
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:11,760
Speaker 1: highest beta outside the US. We just talked about the

106
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:15,640
Speaker 1: fact that the US is kind of an isolated economy. Um, well,

107
00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:17,640
Speaker 1: you can't have it both ways. You can't say, oh,

108
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:19,800
Speaker 1: global growth and global trade are gonna pick up and

109
00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 1: the US is gonna benefit. Um when you just said, hey,

110
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:26,479
Speaker 1: you know, the US is its own um story. So, Um,

111
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:29,960
Speaker 1: we have favored non US markets this year basically believing

112
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 1: that there's more operating leverage and better valuations. How long

113
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:36,320
Speaker 1: can this disconnect continue where the inflation really is in

114
00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:40,480
Speaker 1: assets and not in the real economy. Um. So I

115
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:43,119
Speaker 1: think we're starting to approach, um, the point of pain,

116
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:47,000
Speaker 1: and and that's where you know, valuations start um, you know,

117
00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:52,400
Speaker 1: begging uh um, you know belief uh and and our

118
00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:56,120
Speaker 1: senses were starting to see examples of that. Um. We

119
00:06:56,240 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 1: think you know that the history books are gonna reflect um,

120
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 1: you know that we work debacle as maybe you know

121
00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:09,479
Speaker 1: an example of valuations becoming disconnected. And certainly a lot

122
00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:11,120
Speaker 1: of folks have said, oh no, no, no, that's just

123
00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:15,520
Speaker 1: an idiosyncratic situation. But we see examples of it, whether

124
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 1: we're looking at um valuations in VC or we're looking

125
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:21,840
Speaker 1: at valuations some of the valuations that are being paid

126
00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:26,440
Speaker 1: in the private equity markets, etcetera. That's fascinating. This is

127
00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:39,640
Speaker 1: really really interesting, Lisa Chellette, thank you. Apple shares up

128
00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 1: more than two percent ahead of reporting earnings after the

129
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:45,240
Speaker 1: bell today. A lot of questions about just how robust

130
00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:49,160
Speaker 1: their growth has been, whether it can justify the tremendous

131
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:51,000
Speaker 1: rally that we saw last year and some of the

132
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:54,440
Speaker 1: estimates that analysts have across Wall Street. But I want

133
00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:57,360
Speaker 1: to turn our focus to what actually is going on

134
00:07:57,640 --> 00:07:59,440
Speaker 1: right now and help us do that. As John Butler,

135
00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 1: Senior tell Services and Equipment analyst for Bloomberg Intelligence, and

136
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:06,679
Speaker 1: that is the effect of the coronavirus on its supply chain,

137
00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:09,280
Speaker 1: which may or may not be in the front and

138
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:12,640
Speaker 1: center today as the report earnings. But you think it

139
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:16,280
Speaker 1: could be potentially substantial, right I do. I want to

140
00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:19,400
Speaker 1: stress I view it sort of as a near term risk.

141
00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:23,720
Speaker 1: So Bloomberg did a great piece last night on m

142
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:28,360
Speaker 1: Live blog where they talked about epidemics and the typical

143
00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:32,520
Speaker 1: bell curve that goes with that. So uh from beginning

144
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:35,440
Speaker 1: to peak, it's typically ten weeks, call it two and

145
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:39,760
Speaker 1: a half months, and that's sort of the before the

146
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:44,800
Speaker 1: number of cases begins to decline. And so my thought

147
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:48,360
Speaker 1: in reading that was that that's the risk, that's the

148
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:54,480
Speaker 1: window where Beijing could remain proactive about closing down factories,

149
00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:59,839
Speaker 1: restricting travel and in general doing the right thing, but

150
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:03,319
Speaker 1: putting measures in place that could threaten the Apple supply chain.

151
00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:07,800
Speaker 1: So looking ahead to the coming year for Apple, they

152
00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:12,720
Speaker 1: reportedly are set to launch a lower cost replacement to

153
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:15,400
Speaker 1: the old iPhone. See if you remember that, So it's

154
00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:18,920
Speaker 1: a lower cost iPhone sort of positioned at the high

155
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:21,760
Speaker 1: end of the mid price market, which is a big segment.

156
00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:25,520
Speaker 1: But if you're gonna launch that in March, you got

157
00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:28,840
Speaker 1: to start building it in February at the latest. So

158
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:32,480
Speaker 1: in my mind, that sets up a near term risk

159
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:34,680
Speaker 1: for them. It could lead to a push out of

160
00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:38,400
Speaker 1: the introduction of that phone, and god, if this whole

161
00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:43,160
Speaker 1: scenario plays out longer than that ten week peak, then

162
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:48,600
Speaker 1: ultimately it could may even threaten the September refresh, although

163
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:52,360
Speaker 1: to be clear, I don't see that happening. Um. I

164
00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:58,160
Speaker 1: think this whole scenario with coronavirus is probably going to

165
00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:01,600
Speaker 1: play out over a typical bell curve. So John is,

166
00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:04,840
Speaker 1: as Apple or any other technology companies that have a

167
00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:08,960
Speaker 1: big president in China, they talked about any supply chain disruptions.

168
00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:13,160
Speaker 1: They have not, and so I think a lot of

169
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:16,240
Speaker 1: people are going to be coming into tonight's Apple report

170
00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 1: and the earnings call anxious to hear something. I would

171
00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:23,839
Speaker 1: be amazed if they didn't address it already in China.

172
00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:26,120
Speaker 1: If you look at the retail store base, they have

173
00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:29,800
Speaker 1: limited the number of hours those stores are open across

174
00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:33,640
Speaker 1: all of China. So clearly it's on Apple's mind and

175
00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:38,000
Speaker 1: they're already taking measures to address the the thread of

176
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:40,520
Speaker 1: this virus. All right, So let's get to the big,

177
00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:44,000
Speaker 1: the big kuna here, which is the earnings, right, the

178
00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:48,240
Speaker 1: first two trillion dollar company, right. Yeah, it's interesting they're

179
00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:52,520
Speaker 1: set up for this great year. You know, the iPhone tennis,

180
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:55,920
Speaker 1: which sold throughout last year, did not really resonate well

181
00:10:55,960 --> 00:11:00,079
Speaker 1: with people, and every quarter last year they booked to

182
00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:03,720
Speaker 1: a double digit decline in iPhone sales. So we have

183
00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:07,000
Speaker 1: very low hurdle set up for this year. Every quarter

184
00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:12,240
Speaker 1: this year, and the iPhone eleven that they introduced in

185
00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:17,520
Speaker 1: September last year has done really well, um by any measure.

186
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:20,560
Speaker 1: You know, we're hearing from third party researchers as well

187
00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:24,720
Speaker 1: as the tech community. Uh, just in general. I'm seeing

188
00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:27,199
Speaker 1: a lot of it out there, a lot of iPhone

189
00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:30,640
Speaker 1: elevens in in people's hands. What I think they got

190
00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:34,600
Speaker 1: so right is they introduced a new camera system. So

191
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:37,240
Speaker 1: you've got sort of a hit on your hands, some

192
00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:42,640
Speaker 1: new devices coming to market and a lot of selfies.

193
00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:45,720
Speaker 1: He likes the filters, he likes the multiple cameras. I

194
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:48,240
Speaker 1: looked at Tom Keene. Tom Keine posts some amazing photos

195
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:52,240
Speaker 1: on Twitter from his phone eleven, so he's really been efficient.

196
00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:55,360
Speaker 1: I just point and pushed a little point. He spends

197
00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:59,520
Speaker 1: He spends entire radio segments filming said videos. You know,

198
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:02,000
Speaker 1: it is interesting though, and it's just the idea of

199
00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:06,840
Speaker 1: phone camera. I mean, that's essentially what's happening. Cameras have

200
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:12,640
Speaker 1: become digital digital. I'm sorry, today's smartphones are digital cameras

201
00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:16,280
Speaker 1: with a phone app basically, and so the phone is

202
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:20,559
Speaker 1: honestly no all kidding aside is it's the most important

203
00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:24,800
Speaker 1: feature on any smartphone. And I really think Apple did

204
00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:27,839
Speaker 1: a lights out job with the iPhone eleven. And they

205
00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:31,959
Speaker 1: lowered the starting price by fifty dollars. So it just

206
00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:34,480
Speaker 1: has done very well and I think we're gonna hear

207
00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:37,240
Speaker 1: that tonight and it sets them up for a great

208
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:41,160
Speaker 1: year where you have this low bar set from how

209
00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:44,280
Speaker 1: we performance. How important is that five G story to Apple?

210
00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:45,880
Speaker 1: A lot of bulls are out there saying this is

211
00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:51,360
Speaker 1: the next major refresh cycle. I think I think they're right,

212
00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:53,280
Speaker 1: but I think it's going to play out over a

213
00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:56,880
Speaker 1: longer period of time than they think. People don't upgrade

214
00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:59,920
Speaker 1: immediately to the new technology, so if you look at

215
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:03,360
Speaker 1: four G, it was sort of a multi year ramp

216
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:07,600
Speaker 1: to the point where sat uh not saturation penetration levels

217
00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:11,920
Speaker 1: in the US we're really meaningful. So I think we'll

218
00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:14,560
Speaker 1: see the same thing happened this year, where we have

219
00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:18,719
Speaker 1: a decent year of early adopters. The iPhone five G

220
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:21,080
Speaker 1: coming out in September, I think is going to be

221
00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:24,320
Speaker 1: a popular device, but it will take a couple of

222
00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:27,280
Speaker 1: years to really get out there, so to speak. I

223
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:29,560
Speaker 1: feel like sociologists are going to look at this period

224
00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:32,920
Speaker 1: of time where it's no longer about the conversation, it's

225
00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:35,200
Speaker 1: just about how you look. I mean, honestly, I do

226
00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:37,520
Speaker 1: think that this is going to be a transformation that people,

227
00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,000
Speaker 1: you know, just want to see themselves others, but they

228
00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:45,200
Speaker 1: don't actually want to have and conversations have gone to

229
00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 1: texting yes for the most guilty. By the way, John Butler,

230
00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:53,920
Speaker 1: thanks so much for joining us. John Butler, Senior Telecom

231
00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:57,280
Speaker 1: Services and Equipment Annals also is the ace on Apple

232
00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:09,200
Speaker 1: for Bloomberg Intelligence. There is a big question right now

233
00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:13,000
Speaker 1: as US equity is rebound after yesterday sell off, how

234
00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:16,840
Speaker 1: will China's market respond in the wake of the closure

235
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:19,720
Speaker 1: of the Wuhan City How how big it is it

236
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:23,080
Speaker 1: accounts for one point six percent of the total GDP

237
00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:27,200
Speaker 1: of China, as well as the potential ramifications for JN

238
00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:30,120
Speaker 1: paying the president of the country. Christopher Balton joining us

239
00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:34,640
Speaker 1: now Associate professor at Fullbright University, Vietnam. Also a Bloomberg

240
00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:39,360
Speaker 1: Opinion columnist, joining us from Saigon in Vietnam. Christopher, can

241
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:41,680
Speaker 1: you give us just a sense, uh, first of all,

242
00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:44,240
Speaker 1: just what the response has been like on the ground

243
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:48,320
Speaker 1: where you are right now. Um, what we're basically seeing

244
00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:50,520
Speaker 1: is is that even though it's a typically busy time

245
00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:55,040
Speaker 1: when people are out in restaurants with families, enjoying Chinese

246
00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:58,000
Speaker 1: New Year. What we're really seeing is people saying indoors

247
00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:01,480
Speaker 1: and ordering lots of food and grocery. We're actually seeing

248
00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:06,240
Speaker 1: reports of heavy buying in in grocery stores UM, and

249
00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:09,320
Speaker 1: cities working to make sure that they can guarantee residents

250
00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:12,760
Speaker 1: that they continue to have enough food. People are stocking up,

251
00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:16,080
Speaker 1: But we're not seeing panic buying from from the people

252
00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:19,360
Speaker 1: I've been talking to. So it seems that even though

253
00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:22,800
Speaker 1: the impact on the economy is basically going to be

254
00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:25,440
Speaker 1: even though people might not be eating at restaurants, they

255
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:27,480
Speaker 1: seem to be making sure that they're getting a lot

256
00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:32,280
Speaker 1: of food UH and doing a lot of online shopping elsewhere. So, Christopher,

257
00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:36,000
Speaker 1: how important is it for presidents she here to get

258
00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:39,760
Speaker 1: you know, to handle this successfully, to get it out

259
00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:42,280
Speaker 1: in front of it? What's the risk for President g

260
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:46,760
Speaker 1: with the coronavirus there, there's a lot of risk. And

261
00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:51,440
Speaker 1: it's it's it's no coincidence that that President Lee was

262
00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:54,320
Speaker 1: actually appointed to lead the working group on on this

263
00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:58,560
Speaker 1: issue primarily because it's it's she is does not want

264
00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:02,560
Speaker 1: to be seen as as in charge of this UH debacle. UM.

265
00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:04,600
Speaker 1: And I think what you're seeing inside of China right now,

266
00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:07,160
Speaker 1: and everything that that you're hearing is is that there's

267
00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:12,040
Speaker 1: deep frustration at the level of competence in handling and

268
00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:14,720
Speaker 1: really getting out and addressing this um. There was a

269
00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:17,200
Speaker 1: there was a something that's gone viral on Leach had

270
00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:22,320
Speaker 1: a very important event where the mayor of Wuhan is

271
00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:26,520
Speaker 1: holding this UH press conference and he's talking about their

272
00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:30,080
Speaker 1: their capacity to to make face masks, and he starts

273
00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:32,360
Speaker 1: off saying, well, we can make one point eight billion,

274
00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:35,040
Speaker 1: and then it's like, no, it's it's one point uh.

275
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:39,200
Speaker 1: It's it's one point zero eight, and then it's uh,

276
00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:41,680
Speaker 1: and then it goes to an even lower number. And

277
00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:44,160
Speaker 1: so I think there's this sense among the Chinese public

278
00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:47,840
Speaker 1: that that their their government is not nearly as competent,

279
00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:50,480
Speaker 1: and there's a lot of very deep frustration of the

280
00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:54,480
Speaker 1: government because over the years they have a a history

281
00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:57,960
Speaker 1: of not handling public health crisis well. And so there's

282
00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:01,800
Speaker 1: kind of this mounting frustration going to connect the idea

283
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:04,320
Speaker 1: that in the US and elsewhere there seems to be

284
00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:07,679
Speaker 1: a complacency about China's response, and there's been kind of

285
00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:09,800
Speaker 1: a theme where people say, well, it's so much better

286
00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:13,480
Speaker 1: than two thousand three when Stars was spreading this seems

287
00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:17,040
Speaker 1: to actually be proactive. Where where well can you explain

288
00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:21,440
Speaker 1: that disconnect? Well, it's it's difficult to say because you

289
00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:27,040
Speaker 1: get so many conflicting responses about what the actual nature

290
00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:30,680
Speaker 1: of preparedness and China's ability to act. They're clearly acting,

291
00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:35,000
Speaker 1: that doesn't necessarily mean that they're acting well in in

292
00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:38,439
Speaker 1: solving the problem. Um, you know, there's there's videos that

293
00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:41,480
Speaker 1: and and I want to emphasize videos that you see

294
00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:45,359
Speaker 1: on things like we chat or or other social media platforms.

295
00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:48,280
Speaker 1: We don't always know how accurate they are, so it's

296
00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:50,520
Speaker 1: difficult to say, well, are are they acting? You know,

297
00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:54,480
Speaker 1: there's this there's this video of there's China has made

298
00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:58,000
Speaker 1: a great fanfare that they're building a new hospital. Well,

299
00:17:58,040 --> 00:18:00,879
Speaker 1: these types of the construction form that they're using is

300
00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:05,680
Speaker 1: basically a type of reinforced heavy duty plastic cardboard. Uh,

301
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:08,720
Speaker 1: and they use these on Chinese construction sites. And so

302
00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:11,760
Speaker 1: it's not really like a quality construction. There's not gonna

303
00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:14,880
Speaker 1: be air filtering and sanitation standards and things like that.

304
00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:18,679
Speaker 1: But they've clearly gone to the trouble of building something

305
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:21,159
Speaker 1: that they can put people in. So it's very very

306
00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:25,719
Speaker 1: difficult to disentangle what is actually helping uh with regards

307
00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:27,600
Speaker 1: to what China is doing and what is just action

308
00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:31,760
Speaker 1: for the sake of appearing busy. Christopher, is it worthwhile

309
00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:35,000
Speaker 1: making the analogy two stars as it relates to the

310
00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:39,200
Speaker 1: potential impact on the Chinese economy which was material at

311
00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:43,960
Speaker 1: the time? Um, I think it's still in a way

312
00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:48,160
Speaker 1: very early, too early to to say with with significance.

313
00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:50,679
Speaker 1: I think the first crack that we've really seen in

314
00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:53,000
Speaker 1: how big an impact it's going to have on the

315
00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:57,000
Speaker 1: economy is China has announced that they're actually pushing back

316
00:18:57,040 --> 00:19:00,760
Speaker 1: the return to return to work date by one week.

317
00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:03,320
Speaker 1: At the moment, um, I wouldn't be surprised if that

318
00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:06,640
Speaker 1: flips another week or two. Um So, I think it's

319
00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:10,199
Speaker 1: still really too early to just start making solid comparisons

320
00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:13,280
Speaker 1: to stars or really anything else, because this is just

321
00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:16,880
Speaker 1: so unprecedented at the moment. There's also an idea that

322
00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:19,440
Speaker 1: Wuhana is a very big city, but it only accounts

323
00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:23,720
Speaker 1: for one point six percent of China's entire GDP. Is

324
00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:27,760
Speaker 1: the potential impact on the economy much greater Based on

325
00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:32,040
Speaker 1: Wuhan's rule in terms of a node of transportation and

326
00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:35,680
Speaker 1: manufacturing and a part of supply chains of companies both

327
00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:41,080
Speaker 1: locally and internationally. Yes, absolutely, it's it's it's kind of

328
00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:44,000
Speaker 1: like right in the middle in the center of China.

329
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:48,320
Speaker 1: It's it's a big rail hub, lots of manufacturing. And

330
00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:50,760
Speaker 1: so what you've really seen is you've seen these you know,

331
00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:54,000
Speaker 1: as people leave. And so when when this happened, right

332
00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:56,520
Speaker 1: as people were leaving for Chinese New Year and so on,

333
00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:58,720
Speaker 1: on some days, there were estimates that more than a

334
00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:02,159
Speaker 1: million people we're leaving the city of Wuhan in a

335
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:04,919
Speaker 1: specific day. And if you've ever been in a city,

336
00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:07,920
Speaker 1: a major Chinese city during Chinese New Year, you can

337
00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:10,639
Speaker 1: have these cities that you know, of a fifteen million

338
00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:13,440
Speaker 1: people that will literally you know, fifty in the population

339
00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:16,480
Speaker 1: will leave. Um. That that's not that's not a crazy number.

340
00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:20,199
Speaker 1: And imagine if Manhattan was suddenly fifty smaller by population

341
00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:23,760
Speaker 1: um and dispersed all over the Eastern seaboard. That's kind

342
00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:26,480
Speaker 1: of what we're talking about with Wuhan. And so all

343
00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:29,520
Speaker 1: of a sudden, the risk that that virus gets transported

344
00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:32,520
Speaker 1: all over the Eastern Seaboard, or in this case, all

345
00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:36,959
Speaker 1: over China is much much greater and a very real possibility. Christopher,

346
00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:39,600
Speaker 1: you're on the ground in Saigon in Vietnam right now.

347
00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:45,040
Speaker 1: What's the feeling there. Um, there's absolutely lots of precautions

348
00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:47,560
Speaker 1: being taken. I was actually at a health facility today

349
00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:50,199
Speaker 1: on an on an unrelated matter, UM, and they had

350
00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:54,040
Speaker 1: actually set up a tent outside of the facility where

351
00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:57,600
Speaker 1: they were checking people. Everybody was given a mask and

352
00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:00,919
Speaker 1: it was mandatory. UM. There was of course all types

353
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:06,440
Speaker 1: of all nature of sanitation available to people around. UM.

354
00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:10,320
Speaker 1: They're absolutely tracking uh, any travelers that have been to

355
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:13,520
Speaker 1: China recently. UM. It's absolutely a lot of concern, but

356
00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:16,280
Speaker 1: I think they're they're absolutely on top of things and

357
00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:20,040
Speaker 1: tracking people that need to be tracked. Christopher Balding, thanks

358
00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:22,639
Speaker 1: so much for that on the ground UH commentary. We

359
00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:27,840
Speaker 1: really appreciated. Chris Balding, Associate Professor Fulbright University in Saigon, Vietnam.

360
00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:39,560
Speaker 1: He's also Bloomberg Opinion Commism. Let's take a look at

361
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:42,600
Speaker 1: the coronavirus and how it relates to the global energy markets.

362
00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:45,840
Speaker 1: We saw let's sell off in oil over the last

363
00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:50,040
Speaker 1: several sessions and really off from the peak of early January.

364
00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:53,440
Speaker 1: Here w T I today just to quote that that's

365
00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:55,320
Speaker 1: actually staging a little bit of a rebound today up

366
00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:57,240
Speaker 1: about one per cent. Do you get a sense of

367
00:21:57,320 --> 00:22:00,159
Speaker 1: kind of global oil markets and the driver's on the

368
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:03,160
Speaker 1: supply and demand side. We welcome John killed Off, founding

369
00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:06,280
Speaker 1: partner of Again Capital. So, John, how are you thinking

370
00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:10,680
Speaker 1: about global oil markets given some of these issues as

371
00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:12,920
Speaker 1: it relates to the coronavirus as well as some other

372
00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:16,119
Speaker 1: geopolitical issues globally, well on the demand side of the

373
00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:19,359
Speaker 1: equation right now, there's just a tremendous fragility as a

374
00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:23,680
Speaker 1: result of this outbreak of the coronavirus. UM. You know,

375
00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:26,160
Speaker 1: a lot of us were dusting off the charts from

376
00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:29,240
Speaker 1: two thousand three when the stars epidemic hit and oil

377
00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:31,879
Speaker 1: took quite a hit. Then oil prices were basically just

378
00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:34,960
Speaker 1: about cut in half UM from about thirty eight dollars

379
00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:38,159
Speaker 1: a barrel danto almost five, So quite a bit of

380
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:40,199
Speaker 1: a sell off because you know, when I talk to

381
00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:44,000
Speaker 1: you guys about the price dynamic, it's always Asia, Asia,

382
00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:47,720
Speaker 1: Asia and China in particular. UM. You know, there was

383
00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:49,679
Speaker 1: had been some hope that they were getting back on

384
00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:53,240
Speaker 1: their feed economically after the at least the partial resolution

385
00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:55,359
Speaker 1: of the U S. China trade war and now this

386
00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:59,600
Speaker 1: hits and it's just uh, you know, skewing the demand

387
00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:03,840
Speaker 1: growth back to down to flat, if not down on

388
00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:05,960
Speaker 1: the year, because this is still early days. If you

389
00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:08,960
Speaker 1: ask me, I don't quite understand the rush to say

390
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,200
Speaker 1: the oil clear has been sounded. Here what we're seeing

391
00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:13,399
Speaker 1: in the stock market today and and even oil to

392
00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:14,960
Speaker 1: a degree, We've got a long way to go on this,

393
00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:16,919
Speaker 1: you know, I want to pick up on that, because

394
00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:20,280
Speaker 1: we are seeing a rally in equities almost completely erasing

395
00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:23,880
Speaker 1: yesterday's declines at this point if it continues throughout the day.

396
00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:27,040
Speaker 1: But oil it's just flat, I mean essentially, I mean

397
00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:29,480
Speaker 1: it's it's a little up. We're not seeing that big

398
00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:31,440
Speaker 1: of a price gain. What's going to tip the scales

399
00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:34,520
Speaker 1: one way another? It's one percent, but still after losing

400
00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:37,400
Speaker 1: what more than ten dollars in the past month. This

401
00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:40,639
Speaker 1: is this is not um massive what will tip the

402
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:44,120
Speaker 1: scales one way or another in order to determine whether

403
00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:47,800
Speaker 1: there's another substantial like lower the price of oil. Yeah,

404
00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:49,360
Speaker 1: and then at least, if you think about it, we've

405
00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:52,560
Speaker 1: actually retraced or so of the of the gains from

406
00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:54,560
Speaker 1: the October lows. That got it that we saw, we

407
00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:57,440
Speaker 1: got as high as sixty dollars on the on the

408
00:23:57,480 --> 00:24:01,280
Speaker 1: most intense ran fears. Um, what's going to tip us

409
00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:04,480
Speaker 1: to the downside here is if it is that we

410
00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:09,280
Speaker 1: don't get another further response out of OPEC and Russia. Uh.

411
00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:11,520
Speaker 1: They were already been on the wires that this has

412
00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:13,879
Speaker 1: gotten their attention. I can tell you that they've been

413
00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:17,320
Speaker 1: talking about it already about potentially extending their current deal

414
00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:19,520
Speaker 1: to June. At least they're gonna have to go longer

415
00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:21,520
Speaker 1: than that, and they're gonna have to cut more if

416
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:24,280
Speaker 1: they want to support this price. The big line in

417
00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:26,080
Speaker 1: the stand, the first line of the stand here and

418
00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:30,080
Speaker 1: we saw it yesterday get tested was down around was below,

419
00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:32,760
Speaker 1: but really fifty dollars if you go back several years,

420
00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:36,000
Speaker 1: that has been the number that has held up. Um.

421
00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:38,240
Speaker 1: There's a tendency to think it will hold up again

422
00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:40,639
Speaker 1: because you will get a response from some of the producers.

423
00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:43,040
Speaker 1: But if we break that, then you're you're looking at

424
00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:46,919
Speaker 1: significant uh more downside to the low forties uh in

425
00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:49,800
Speaker 1: pretty rapid fashion. So, Jeff, what's the thinking as it

426
00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:52,160
Speaker 1: relates to OPEC and it relates to the supply side

427
00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:56,280
Speaker 1: of the equation, is there a growing determination to support

428
00:24:57,000 --> 00:24:59,800
Speaker 1: global oil prices or we just don't have that coordination

429
00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:03,760
Speaker 1: in than opaque and OPEC. Plus you know, it's it's

430
00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:06,840
Speaker 1: aspirational on their part. I can tell you that, particularly

431
00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:09,640
Speaker 1: Saudi's who you know, you finally got that a ramco

432
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:12,480
Speaker 1: I p O out the door. They've been watching that

433
00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:15,520
Speaker 1: stock price come down as the price of oil comes down.

434
00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:17,160
Speaker 1: So I just want to remind people if you're looking

435
00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:19,800
Speaker 1: to buy into that at some point or in some shape, way,

436
00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:23,959
Speaker 1: shape or form, you've got tremendous exposure to the crude commodity,

437
00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:26,600
Speaker 1: So be careful with that. There's no silver bullet there

438
00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:30,080
Speaker 1: with that company. And um so they're they're gonna try.

439
00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:32,120
Speaker 1: I mean that they were on the wires all weekend,

440
00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:35,800
Speaker 1: uh making noise about about addressing this this slide, and

441
00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:40,320
Speaker 1: even actually by chastising the analyst community for being overreactive

442
00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:43,280
Speaker 1: and too aggressive on the on the on the demand

443
00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:46,520
Speaker 1: outlook cuts, which which is impacting the price. So I

444
00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:48,520
Speaker 1: thought that was an interesting thing on their part that

445
00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:51,879
Speaker 1: shows you how and engage they are with the price

446
00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:54,320
Speaker 1: of the commodity these days. So, but there's a sense

447
00:25:54,359 --> 00:25:57,080
Speaker 1: in the market that it's just beyond their grasp. There's

448
00:25:57,080 --> 00:25:59,800
Speaker 1: too much US soil, there's too much US exports, and

449
00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:02,880
Speaker 1: is even moril coming on from different spots that's also

450
00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:07,080
Speaker 1: helping to keep these global markets rather well supplied. John Kilduff,

451
