But look, 79 00:03:54,640 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 10: we still have institutions that have looked vulnerable for some time, 80 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:05,080 Speaker 10: and those are the ones that are most affected today. 81 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,280 Speaker 1: Former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers made the comments in an 82 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:11,680 Speaker 1: interview with Bloomberg's David Weston Catch that interview coming up 83 00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 1: shortly on the program. 84 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 2: Well, Karen, A bigger bank is also making headlines this morning. 85 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:19,720 Speaker 2: Morgan Stanley is in talks with US prosecutors and regulators 86 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:22,719 Speaker 2: to resolve a probe into its block trading practices.

Previously, Morgan Stantley said the inquiries 90 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:36,479 Speaker 11: focused on whether employees violated securities regulations by sharing or 91 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 11: using information on impending block trades. Now Morganstantley has discharged 92 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 11: two bankers.

A short term extension is now likely, 109 00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 12: but could force Republicans to break their promise against a 110 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:38,360 Speaker 12: clean debt ceiling bill or force Democrats to concede, setting 111 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:42,920 Speaker 12: a precedent before negotiations even begin.

Good morning. I'm Nathan Hager. To 216 00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:18,040 Speaker 2: hike or to pause? That is the question for the 217 00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:20,559 Speaker 2: Federal Open Market Committee, and we will find out this 218 00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:24,560 Speaker 2: afternoon what the committee does about interest rates when its 219 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:27,880 Speaker 2: May meeting draws to a close. But opinion is divided 220 00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:31,600 Speaker 2: among leading economic voices. So let's bring those voices to 221 00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:34,560 Speaker 2: you now. In a conversation with Bloomberg's Kathleen Hayes, sherry 222 00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:37,280 Speaker 2: On and Heidi Stroud Watts, former Federal Reserve Bank of 223 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:41,439 Speaker 2: Dallas president Robert Kaplan called for a hawkish pause amid 224 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:44,199 Speaker 2: regional bank turmoil. Let's bring you part of that conversation. 225 00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:48,120 Speaker 9: You think the FED should pause, Why, Yeah. 226 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:50,040 Speaker 7: I do think they should pause for a few reasons. 227 00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:53,760 Speaker 7: One is, I think we're in the early stages, not 228 00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 7: the late stages, of this banking situation. I think there's 229 00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:02,760 Speaker 7: been a pretty significant change for the prospects of small 230 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:06,520 Speaker 7: and mid sized banks. They provide most of the lending 231 00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:10,040 Speaker 7: to small mid sized businesses in the United States, and 232 00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:13,280 Speaker 7: we've just seen the first phase of this, which is 233 00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:16,080 Speaker 7: the asset liability mismatch, which is sort of the most 234 00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 7: obvious issue, but the credit issues are about to start, 235 00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:22,640 Speaker 7: and I think that's why you're seeing the reaction in 236 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 7: the markets. The other issue for me is from a 237 00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:27,560 Speaker 7: risk management point of view, if I were sitting in 238 00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:29,880 Speaker 7: the seat, I think it's more important to be able 239 00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:33,200 Speaker 7: to sustain the current rate for an extended period of time, 240 00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:36,839 Speaker 7: longer than the market thinks, then get another twenty five 241 00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:40,480 Speaker 7: or fifty basis points and risk having to cut again. 242 00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:43,720 Speaker 7: I think that would be very troubling. And I'd say 243 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:46,920 Speaker 7: one more comment if I were at the FED, I'd 244 00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:50,439 Speaker 7: call out that we need a whole of government approach 245 00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:53,000 Speaker 7: to fight inflation. Right now, the FED is saying we've 246 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 7: got this. 247 00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,200 Speaker 9: We can solve it. I don't think that's the case. 248 00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:59,640 Speaker 7: I would prefer to do what's called the hawkish pause, 249 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:05,400 Speaker 7: but signal that we're in a tightening stance, because I 250 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 7: actually think the banking situation may well be more serious 251 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:11,840 Speaker 7: than we currently understand, and I'd like to turn over 252 00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:14,800 Speaker 7: a few more cards rather than regret not doing that 253 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:15,719 Speaker 7: three months from now. 254 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:20,000 Speaker 16: Okay, put on your former golden vice chair hat. If 255 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 16: you were advising a desk, a trading desk, an investment desk. 256 00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:25,320 Speaker 9: What do you think the risk is now? 257 00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:27,640 Speaker 16: Have we not seen the end of it? It seems 258 00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:29,520 Speaker 16: we know that there's shorts out there. Are there? 259 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:30,520 Speaker 9: No people are nervous? 260 00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:32,840 Speaker 16: But is there fundamental risk right now that could keep 261 00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:37,640 Speaker 16: this small and medium sized banking turmoil problem going? 262 00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:38,480 Speaker 9: Yeah. 263 00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:41,760 Speaker 7: Normally when we're discussing problems with banks, it's after we've 264 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:44,600 Speaker 7: been through a credit cycle. We have not been we 265 00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:48,199 Speaker 7: haven't even started the credit cycle. We've just had an 266 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:52,400 Speaker 7: asset liability mismatch issue where banks were overinvested in long 267 00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:56,360 Speaker 7: term treasuries and bank equity has been marked down just 268 00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:59,960 Speaker 7: based on that. We've got the credit issues yet to come, 269 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:04,160 Speaker 7: we're at a different stage in the cycle. And there's 270 00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:09,160 Speaker 7: also potential deposit instability down the road when those credit 271 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:13,280 Speaker 7: issues start to unfold. And so I would say we're 272 00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:16,560 Speaker 7: in the second or third inning of this situation, not 273 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:19,640 Speaker 7: the first inning or seventh inning. I should say we 274 00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:23,600 Speaker 7: just finished the first phase potentially, but there's a lot 275 00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:26,160 Speaker 7: more to go. The credit phase, I think normally is 276 00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:26,880 Speaker 7: more serious. 277 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:30,960 Speaker 17: Robert, on your point about pausing at this moment, you 278 00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:33,240 Speaker 17: don't expect that there might be the risk that if 279 00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:36,000 Speaker 17: you pause at this level, then you might be forced 280 00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:38,880 Speaker 17: to hike again like we saw with ASTRADI the eye 281 00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:42,040 Speaker 17: and what is really more detrimental to credibility at this point. 282 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 7: Yeah, So I think there's a way to position this. 283 00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:48,360 Speaker 7: And let's say they raise then pause, or they pause 284 00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:53,000 Speaker 7: and signalog so called hawkish pause. Either way, the rhetoric 285 00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:57,360 Speaker 7: needs to be that the FED stands ready to raise rates. 286 00:14:57,760 --> 00:15:00,760 Speaker 7: All you're doing is we've raised a lot very quickly. 287 00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:03,760 Speaker 9: We want to absorb and digest some of it. 288 00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:07,480 Speaker 7: I think people will understand it, think it's prudent, but 289 00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:09,840 Speaker 7: signal we're prepared to do more. And I think the 290 00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:13,280 Speaker 7: markets will understand that message. If they give that message. 291 00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:15,400 Speaker 17: And your concerns about credit tightening coming out of time 292 00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:18,480 Speaker 17: when we saw the Jewel's numbers really fall, we're seeing 293 00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:23,280 Speaker 17: layoffs out of a two three year high. How concerning 294 00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:25,440 Speaker 17: is this for the most vulnerable part of this of 295 00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:30,480 Speaker 17: the American population, especially when you're thinking that a lot 296 00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:34,640 Speaker 17: of people will be left out when inflation is this fast. 297 00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:40,280 Speaker 9: So normally at this stage you worry about the unemployed. 298 00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 7: Right now, we're in a crisis of the employed. The 299 00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:46,960 Speaker 7: problem that's going on out there, fifty million workers that 300 00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:49,880 Speaker 7: make fifty thousand dollars a year or less cannot make 301 00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:53,840 Speaker 7: ends meet, okay, And part of it is there's been 302 00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:57,560 Speaker 7: a substantial amount of fiscal spending which hasn't stopped, by 303 00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:03,480 Speaker 7: the way, and substantial about monetary easing, and really the 304 00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:06,360 Speaker 7: low moderate income families are paying the price of it. 305 00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:09,400 Speaker 7: So you do need some adjustment in the labor market. 306 00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:13,400 Speaker 7: We've got demographically in the United States shortage of workers 307 00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:15,360 Speaker 7: for as far as the eye can see, at fifty 308 00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 7: thousand or less, and so I think you could tolerate 309 00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:22,280 Speaker 7: some loosening in the labor market. I'm more worried about 310 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:25,960 Speaker 7: the family who is working that tells me they can't 311 00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:29,040 Speaker 7: make ends meet, and that is a widespread group of 312 00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:29,840 Speaker 7: people right now. 313 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:32,240 Speaker 16: Does the FED to deserve bear responsibility for what is 314 00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:33,320 Speaker 16: happening to these banks. 315 00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:36,800 Speaker 7: I don't blame the FED for making the hikes, although 316 00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:39,880 Speaker 7: I would have eased off monetary policy a couple of 317 00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:42,120 Speaker 7: years ago so these weren't necessary. But once they had 318 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:43,920 Speaker 7: to do it, I don't blame it for that. I 319 00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:46,920 Speaker 7: do think there's a problem with a lack of supervision 320 00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:50,480 Speaker 7: once they knew they were in a hiking mode, and 321 00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:52,960 Speaker 7: I think it was up to the FED to supervise 322 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:57,080 Speaker 7: and make sure that if there were outliers, like two 323 00:16:57,160 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 7: of the largest fifteen banks, that they caught that earth 324 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,120 Speaker 7: early so we wouldn't be going through what we're going 325 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:02,760 Speaker 7: through right now. 326 00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:05,520 Speaker 16: You left the FED at twenty twenty one, the new 327 00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:09,479 Speaker 16: framework was being put in place. The new framework said, oh, 328 00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:11,760 Speaker 16: we're not going to raise rates until we're well above 329 00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:15,840 Speaker 16: two percent, until we've got maximum employment. Is that another 330 00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:19,880 Speaker 16: factor that helped set the stage for where we are now? 331 00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:21,360 Speaker 9: It might have, As you know. 332 00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:25,760 Speaker 7: I dissented on the guidance in the September of twenty twenty. 333 00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 7: It was only descent I ever made at the FED. 334 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:32,280 Speaker 7: But I dissented because I thought locking into that guidance 335 00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:38,359 Speaker 7: did not make sense, and I wish that that hadn't 336 00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:40,560 Speaker 7: been done. But yes, that may have led the FED 337 00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:43,760 Speaker 7: to be more inclined to keep buying bonds to be 338 00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:48,560 Speaker 7: later to raise rates. And I've said many many times 339 00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:52,880 Speaker 7: taking the foot off the accelerator earlier would have made 340 00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:54,720 Speaker 7: it so they didn't have to slam on the brakes 341 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:55,840 Speaker 7: like they're doing right now. 342 00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:58,800 Speaker 16: What do you think is the big challenge for the 343 00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:01,080 Speaker 16: FED and the federal government? 344 00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:01,679 Speaker 2: Right now? 345 00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:02,920 Speaker 9: Here's the issue. 346 00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:07,359 Speaker 7: There's the monetary policy element of this cyclical part, but 347 00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:11,080 Speaker 7: we've got a few other issues. We need more fiscal discipline. 348 00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:13,760 Speaker 7: We still have a lot of fiscal spending in the pipeline. 349 00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:16,359 Speaker 7: And right now the federal government, in my view, is 350 00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:18,920 Speaker 7: working in some ways at cross purposes with the FED 351 00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:23,440 Speaker 7: energy policy, and the integration to the transition is being 352 00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:26,320 Speaker 7: done on the backs of low modern income families. There's 353 00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:29,679 Speaker 7: many actions outside the FED that are making it harder 354 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,359 Speaker 7: for people making fifty grand a year or less to 355 00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 7: make ends meet. And yes, I think you want a 356 00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:39,040 Speaker 7: whole of government approach to inflation, not just a FED 357 00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:40,600 Speaker 7: does this alone. 358 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:42,919 Speaker 17: Approach, and I mean we come back to always a 359 00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:47,720 Speaker 17: US debt sealing issues, default possibilities, you enforced. We know 360 00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:50,280 Speaker 17: sort of where this is going. But if we continue 361 00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:53,160 Speaker 17: to see that stand of what will be the implications. 362 00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:57,720 Speaker 7: So there's the back and forth of the standoff, which 363 00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:00,840 Speaker 7: is going to stress people out. But there's a real 364 00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:03,639 Speaker 7: issue in here. As we sit here right now, we 365 00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:06,640 Speaker 7: haven't even gone into a downturn. The deficit is right 366 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:10,240 Speaker 7: now already ten percent of GDP. We actually have a 367 00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:14,080 Speaker 7: legitimate issue about the need for more fiscal restraint. 368 00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:16,200 Speaker 9: And if this. 369 00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:18,760 Speaker 7: Game of chicken, I don't like the tactics, and I 370 00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:21,879 Speaker 7: don't think it's healthy to be threatening or making people 371 00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:22,840 Speaker 7: worried about default. 372 00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:26,760 Speaker 9: But the discussion about controlling. 373 00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:30,359 Speaker 7: Spending is necessary, and I think fifty million families that 374 00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:33,080 Speaker 7: can't make ends meet out there, I think might welcome 375 00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:33,760 Speaker 7: that debate. 376 00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:39,320 Speaker 16: Final quick quick question, quick answer in June, in July, 377 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:42,320 Speaker 16: in August, are we still going to be where we are? 378 00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:44,760 Speaker 16: Is the FED going to in effect have been done 379 00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:45,679 Speaker 16: hiking rates? 380 00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:47,120 Speaker 9: Do you think there's more to come? 381 00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:48,359 Speaker 16: How is this going to play out? 382 00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:51,880 Speaker 7: I think getting from where we are down to say 383 00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:55,439 Speaker 7: four percent headline inflation will be doable. I think what 384 00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:57,679 Speaker 7: we're going to find is it's going to be very 385 00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:02,120 Speaker 7: sticky to get headline inflation. That the wage price spiral 386 00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:05,119 Speaker 7: of people making fifty thousand or less is alive and 387 00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:09,960 Speaker 7: well and intense, and that's going to affect services inflation. 388 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:11,960 Speaker 7: So I think this is going to be a two 389 00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 7: or three year battle, not a six month battle. 390 00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:18,000 Speaker 2: And that was former Dallas FED President Robert Kaplan speaking 391 00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:21,119 Speaker 2: there with Bloomberg's Kathleen Hayes, sherry On and Heidi Stroud 392 00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:24,720 Speaker 2: watts Well. Robert Kaplan calls for a hawkish pause. Former 393 00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:28,639 Speaker 2: Treasury Secretary Larry Summers says the Fed should remain just 394 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:32,159 Speaker 2: plain hawkish. In a discussion with Bloomberg's David West, and 395 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:35,000 Speaker 2: Summers talked about a potential rate hike today as well 396 00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:37,080 Speaker 2: as the dead ceiling. Let's listen into that. 397 00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:37,400 Speaker 9: Now. 398 00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:39,920 Speaker 18: We heard from Jamie Diamond after the First Republic that 399 00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:41,720 Speaker 18: you thought pretty much we were over maybe there'd be 400 00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:44,280 Speaker 18: a small under left. Looks like we're not over this. 401 00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:46,720 Speaker 18: Whatever it is right at this point, how did we 402 00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:48,480 Speaker 18: get here? Why does this keep going on? 403 00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:54,600 Speaker 10: I think that we actually are probably over the vast 404 00:20:54,600 --> 00:21:00,679 Speaker 10: majority of the banking of the banking traumas. But look, 405 00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:06,000 Speaker 10: we still have institutions that have looked vulnerable for some time, 406 00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:09,600 Speaker 10: and those are the ones that are most affected today. 407 00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:15,040 Speaker 10: We still have concerns about commercial real estate and what 408 00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:18,800 Speaker 10: that's going to mean for the credit worthiness of a 409 00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:24,959 Speaker 10: number of institutions. There are still questions that are going 410 00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:30,159 Speaker 10: to be around. I'm concerned today, but I have to 411 00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:32,919 Speaker 10: say I'm not highly alarmed by what's happening in the 412 00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:38,880 Speaker 10: banking sector. I'm frankly more alarmed about what's happening in 413 00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:43,240 Speaker 10: the political sector, where it's clear that we've only got 414 00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:48,480 Speaker 10: a certain amount of time and something's got to come together, 415 00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:52,240 Speaker 10: where something very serious is going to happen before that. 416 00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:55,000 Speaker 18: Is there a more systemic effect here because we have 417 00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:58,399 Speaker 18: a lot of banks and appears actually have liabilities greater 418 00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:01,720 Speaker 18: than their assets at this point because of the reduced 419 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:04,760 Speaker 18: value of the assets because of the rapid increase in 420 00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:07,720 Speaker 18: the interest rates. Is there a larger issue of solvency 421 00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:09,720 Speaker 18: that respect to a lot of US banks at this point. 422 00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:14,560 Speaker 10: I think there is some alarmism in the calculations you're 423 00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:21,879 Speaker 10: describing because it insufficiently recognizes that yes, if you hold 424 00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:24,720 Speaker 10: a bond or you hold a mortgage and the interest 425 00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:28,160 Speaker 10: rate goes up, the value of that mortgage goes down. 426 00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:34,600 Speaker 10: But equally, if you're having a deposit and that deposit 427 00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:37,520 Speaker 10: is at a low interest rate and so you're going 428 00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:41,240 Speaker 10: to be able to earn a spread, there's an asset there, 429 00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:44,560 Speaker 10: and when interest rates go up, the value of that 430 00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:48,720 Speaker 10: asset goes up. And so I think it's kind of 431 00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:54,760 Speaker 10: alarmist and wrong to focus on the first adjustment and 432 00:22:54,840 --> 00:23:00,720 Speaker 10: not pay attention to the second adjustment. So, yes, absolutely 433 00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:05,639 Speaker 10: we have not been as careful in thinking about interest 434 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 10: rate increases as we should have been. I think it 435 00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:15,520 Speaker 10: was kind of amazing and very unfortunate that FED stress 436 00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:21,000 Speaker 10: testing didn't put weight on interst rate increased scenarios in 437 00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:25,240 Speaker 10: the way that it should have, And that's an important 438 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:30,320 Speaker 10: intellectual failure by the Federal Reserve system. But I also 439 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:35,920 Speaker 10: think that the kind of analysis that your sighting are 440 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:38,080 Speaker 10: probably overly alarmist. 441 00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:40,600 Speaker 18: Learn let's come back to the issue raised by the 442 00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:43,640 Speaker 18: debt ceiling. You've been in these jobs, so when there's 443 00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:46,320 Speaker 18: a crisis, and sometimes they come in pairs. Right now, 444 00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:47,919 Speaker 18: we have the banking on the one hand, and the 445 00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:49,880 Speaker 18: debt selling on the other how do you handle those 446 00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:51,879 Speaker 18: simultaneous potential crises. 447 00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:59,720 Speaker 10: I think on the debt limit issue, you have parties 448 00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:06,840 Speaker 10: that may not always be rooting for success, and you 449 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:12,800 Speaker 10: also have entities like the Republican Caucus, where you're negotiating 450 00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:17,800 Speaker 10: with somebody, but you're not really sure of what the 451 00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:25,040 Speaker 10: person you're negotiating with can or cannot deliver, and that 452 00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:32,240 Speaker 10: makes this say, more difficult kind of situation. 453 00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:35,119 Speaker 18: Let's talk about the Federal reserves. How does this affect 454 00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:36,959 Speaker 18: potential of their decision the past. You said you think 455 00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:39,240 Speaker 18: twenty five basis points is in the cards for May. 456 00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:41,400 Speaker 18: Can they hike into a banking crisis? 457 00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:46,879 Speaker 10: Anyone in the federal reserve system who was inclined to 458 00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:53,000 Speaker 10: use language that was committing to further hikes in June 459 00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:57,439 Speaker 10: should surely hesitate because we don't know how this is 460 00:24:57,480 --> 00:25:02,960 Speaker 10: going to metastasize. At the same time, I think for 461 00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:07,680 Speaker 10: the Fed to signal in a definitive way that they 462 00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:14,040 Speaker 10: were finished would be to take a substantial risk of 463 00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:18,000 Speaker 10: locking into what turns out to be a mistaken path, 464 00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:22,120 Speaker 10: and would also perhaps be taken by the market as 465 00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:26,359 Speaker 10: a seek sign of significant alarm. So what I'm going 466 00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:29,080 Speaker 10: to be looking for and hoping for from the FED 467 00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:37,600 Speaker 10: is a move upwards and a clear recognition of uncertainty 468 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:41,520 Speaker 10: and agnosticism with respect to what's coming. 469 00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:47,000 Speaker 2: This is Bloomberg Daybreak Today, your morning brief on the 470 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:50,480 Speaker 2: stories making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. 471 00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:53,520 Speaker 1: Look for us on your podcast feed at six am 472 00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:57,280 Speaker 1: Eastern each morning, on Apple, Spotify, and anywhere else you 473 00:25:57,320 --> 00:25:58,400 Speaker 1: get your podcasts. 474 00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:01,320 Speaker 2: You can also listen live each morning starting at five 475 00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:03,919 Speaker 2: am Wall Street time on Bloomberg eleven three to zero 476 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:07,440 Speaker 2: in New York, Bloomberg ninety nine one in Washington, Bloomberg 477 00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:10,160 Speaker 2: one oh six y one in Boston, and Bloomberg ninety 478 00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:11,600 Speaker 2: sixty in San Francisco. 479 00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:15,120 Speaker 1: Our flagship New York station is also available on your 480 00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 1: Amazon Alexa devices.
