37
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:11,640

00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:14,800

40
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:21,000
Speaker 1: implications at all. On the other hand, maybe things are

41
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:24,800
Speaker 1: going to change a little more dramatically. But honestly, we

42
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:27,360

Speaker 1: This is taking Stock with Kathleen Hayes and Pin Fox

84
00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:56,479
Speaker 1: on Bloomberg Radio. Hispanic and Latino owned businesses, they are surging,

85
00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:59,160
Speaker 1: they are growing. They're the fastest growing segment of the

86
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:02,560
Speaker 1: small business population. And here to tell us more about

87
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 1: them and about the annual Small Business Summit that just

00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:09,600

90
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:16,400
Speaker 1: much for being with us. Thanks for having me. Tim

91
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:19,440
Speaker 1: tell us a little bit about the event, the summit

92
00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:25,720
Speaker 1: event yesterday in Washington. What were some of the takeaways. Well,

93
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:28,160
Speaker 1: we've just been as one of our most successful conferences

94
00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:30,839
Speaker 1: that we've ever had. We've been in business for twenty

95
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:34,320
Speaker 1: one years as a Latino coalition, but we had a

96
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:36,440
Speaker 1: lot of interest and we had a lot of business owners,

97
00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:39,280
Speaker 1: came from all across the United States, and we're really

98
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:41,640
Speaker 1: tackling a lot of the issues that are on their minds.

99
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:45,039
Speaker 1: The regulatory environment. They're complaining there's too much of it

100
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:48,320
Speaker 1: and they need strategies how to navigate that. They're looking

101
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:51,240
Speaker 1: for different kinds of businesses that they can get into,

102
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:55,040
Speaker 1: and they're also very interested in technology. How can technology

103
00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:58,440
Speaker 1: allow them to be more efficient and more effective. They

104
00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:01,159
Speaker 1: understand that that's a love or of the playing field.

105
00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 1: So it's a great conference. Three day conference is probably

106
00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:07,160
Speaker 1: one of our most successful ever. And we also had

107
00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:10,239
Speaker 1: a lot of elected officials both sides of the aisle,

108
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:13,880
Speaker 1: very interested and what's on the minds of Hispanics, especially

109
00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:17,880
Speaker 1: as they go into these fall elections. You know, how

110
00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:23,640
Speaker 1: are those concerns any different from any small business person,

111
00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:27,520
Speaker 1: any entrepreneur in this country. A couple of months ago,

112
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:29,920
Speaker 1: you had an up in the Wall Street Journal noting

113
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:33,120
Speaker 1: that the economic engine in America is it still it's

114
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:37,080
Speaker 1: twenty seven small businesses? You say, the presidential candidates aren't

115
00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:41,680
Speaker 1: tapping into this again, anything different about with Hispanic Hispanic

116
00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:45,080
Speaker 1: entrepreneur needs versus anybody else. You you hit it on

117
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:47,800
Speaker 1: the top of the show. There's so many new ones.

118
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:51,760
Speaker 1: There's four million Hispanic businesses in the United States. This

119
00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:56,000
Speaker 1: grows every single year. They're generating six entred sixty billion

120
00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:59,520
Speaker 1: in revenue, and demographers tell us that those numbers could

121
00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:03,880
Speaker 1: double every five years. So you're right, Hispanic businesses don't

122
00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:06,640
Speaker 1: need anything different than any other businesses. They need what

123
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:10,040
Speaker 1: I call the seas. They need capital, they need capacity,

124
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:13,760
Speaker 1: which is really technical assistance, and they need contracts with

125
00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:17,040
Speaker 1: the federal government and also Corporate America. And that's who

126
00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:19,120
Speaker 1: we were talking to over these three days when we

127
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:21,600
Speaker 1: were in Washington, Mr bur I don't wonder if you

128
00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:23,400
Speaker 1: could give us a little bit of detail about the

129
00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:28,200
Speaker 1: Latino Coalition and its stand for example, on online sales taxes.

130
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:30,560
Speaker 1: I note that you've written about that as well as

131
00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:34,120
Speaker 1: many of the other issues. Well, you know, we have

132
00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:36,240
Speaker 1: a lot of businesses that are now looking at this

133
00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:39,240
Speaker 1: whole area of e commerce and they just want to

134
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:42,520
Speaker 1: make sure that they have a level playing field. Oftentimes

135
00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 1: they're competing with a lot of larger companies that might uh,

136
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,600
Speaker 1: you know, be selling things not only in their brick

137
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:53,640
Speaker 1: and mortar but also online. Oftentimes small businesses don't have

138
00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:56,520
Speaker 1: the same kind of resources, the same kind of capacity,

139
00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:59,440
Speaker 1: and so we had folks, for example, from the Direct

140
00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:02,600
Speaker 1: Selling Association that we're there. A lot of activity is

141
00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:05,400
Speaker 1: starting to take place there. You're talking about a multi

142
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:09,000
Speaker 1: trillion dollar market and it's a way that small businesses

143
00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:13,360
Speaker 1: can also reach customers in different countries, in different localities.

144
00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:15,880
Speaker 1: So that's something that's on their minds as well. But

145
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:19,680
Speaker 1: at the same time, you know, cost is critically important.

146
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:23,679
Speaker 1: Big businesses sometimes can absorb additional costs in terms of taxes,

147
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:27,560
Speaker 1: in terms of regulations, small businesses can dr I have

148
00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:31,440
Speaker 1: to ask you because you were the US Small Business Administrator,

149
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:34,839
Speaker 1: UM from let's see, from two thousand one to two

150
00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:38,959
Speaker 1: thousand six, you worked under George Bush, George W. Bush,

151
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:43,040
Speaker 1: former president uh Donald Trump presumptive nominee and all that.

152
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:44,520
Speaker 1: Are you going to vote for Trump? What do you

153
00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:48,040
Speaker 1: think of him as the next president? Listen, we're doing

154
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:51,520
Speaker 1: some polling right now, nationwide polling, and we're getting a

155
00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:53,520
Speaker 1: lot of headwinds from a lot of our business owners

156
00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:56,360
Speaker 1: you know, Latino Coalition doesn't indoors. And I haven't made

157
00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:59,320
Speaker 1: a decision yet myself, but neither one of these two

158
00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:03,760
Speaker 1: candidates are talking enough about small business, and as you said,

159
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:06,320
Speaker 1: we feel that that's the engine of America. But they're

160
00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:08,000
Speaker 1: hitting a lot of head winds right now. So we're

161
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:10,040
Speaker 1: gonna be paying a lot of attention to that. But

162
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:12,760
Speaker 1: I will tell you, and I'm just telling you initial

163
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:16,000
Speaker 1: results of this polling, and we're gonna do the events

164
00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:19,839
Speaker 1: at both conventions, the Republican Convention of Democratic Convention, but

165
00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:24,360
Speaker 1: we're getting eighty percent negative ratings and these are from

166
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:31,800
Speaker 1: Hispanic Republican voters on Donald Trumps. Eighty percent negatives from

167
00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:36,480
Speaker 1: Hispanic Republican voters on Donald Trump. So obviously he's gonna

168
00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:38,520
Speaker 1: have to moderate his message if he's if he's really

169
00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:40,880
Speaker 1: good a plan on getting a lot of Hispanic support

170
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:43,920
Speaker 1: the way he says he's going to. What is the

171
00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:47,959
Speaker 1: Latino Coalition's message when it comes to Bill Ackman, the

172
00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:52,840
Speaker 1: head of Pershing Square Capital, Well, we don't deal a

173
00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:55,120
Speaker 1: lot with Bill Ackman, but Herbal Life is one of

174
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:57,960
Speaker 1: our key sponsors and we and Herbal Life does a

175
00:09:58,000 --> 00:09:59,960
Speaker 1: lot in the Hispanic community has a lot of US

176
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 1: Panic businesses that are working for him. You know. Uh,

177
00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 1: the actment's attack on Herbal Life is something that we

178
00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:09,240
Speaker 1: don't really get um and so you know, we're we're

179
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:12,360
Speaker 1: gonna be monitoring that situation. I think that's died down

180
00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,440
Speaker 1: a little bit. But Herbal Life is one of our

181
00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 1: key sponsors. Were glad to work with them. They participated

182
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:19,439
Speaker 1: in this conference, and as I said, I think that

183
00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:21,400
Speaker 1: they're providing a lot of opportunities for a lot of

184
00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:24,000
Speaker 1: Hispanics in the United States. Well, let us know when

185
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:27,200
Speaker 1: you got the results of the poll ready, we will.

186
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:30,079
Speaker 1: We're gonna be releasing that right before the conventions. And

187
00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:32,360
Speaker 1: we have a new app that the Latino Coalition. You

188
00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:35,280

192
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:48,480
Speaker 1: former US Small Business Administrator. He says, no candidate is

193
00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:53,040
Speaker 1: addressing the needs of Hispanic entrepreneurs in particular, or entrepreneurs

194
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:56,680
Speaker 1: in general. Enough. This is taking stock on blueboard radio.

195
00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:04,600
Speaker 1: Coming upon taking stock, what do you do with your

196
00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:06,960
Speaker 1: money and if you lean it to the government for

197
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:11,000
Speaker 1: ten years, you'll get one point five seven percent. That's

198
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:14,119
Speaker 1: the question we'll put to Jonathan Golub, chief equity strategist

199
00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:14,560
