7
00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:25,239
Speaker 1: delta variant, and that's calling into question the reopening trade,

8
00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:28,240
Speaker 1: if you will, putting some headwinds out there for the

9
00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:31,440
Speaker 1: global economic growth, causing some people to take down their

10
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:33,879
Speaker 1: growth forecast for this year, maybe putting a little bit

11
00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:39,080
Speaker 1: more pressure on what is an investor to do with that? Backdrop?

12
00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:41,879
Speaker 1: Here at chat At Oviatt, senior vice president, director of

13
00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:44,920
Speaker 1: investment Management at Huntington's private bank joints to say, have

14
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:48,239
Speaker 1: about twenty seven billion dollars in assets under management. So

15
00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:51,360
Speaker 1: Chad again, the folks thought they were gonna have, you know,

16
00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:54,400
Speaker 1: maybe a clearer reopening trade the back half of twenty one.

17
00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:57,480
Speaker 1: That looks like it will be delayed. How are you

18
00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:01,720
Speaker 1: guys thinking about a you know, portfolio construction here in

19
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:06,880
Speaker 1: what is you know, still a delta world? Yeah? Great, question,

20
00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:10,120
Speaker 1: and thanks for having us on this morning. As we

21
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:13,759
Speaker 1: think about things on the minds of markets and certainly

22
00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:17,280
Speaker 1: things that our clients are starting to ask about. There

23
00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:20,520
Speaker 1: is no shortage of headlines out there to indicate that

24
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:24,240
Speaker 1: we might be facing some headwinds related to that opening

25
00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:27,760
Speaker 1: trade right you have ever granted so that news coming

26
00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 1: out of China. We have monetary policy this week, fiscal

27
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:35,120
Speaker 1: policy still some unknowns their higher energy prices. We do

28
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:38,600
Speaker 1: have some slower growth numbers coming at us here in

29
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:40,680
Speaker 1: the US as well as around the world. You have

30
00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 1: earnings questions, global supply chains. So really what we are

31
00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:47,119
Speaker 1: encouraging our clients to do is just take a step

32
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 1: back and even think about where we might be in

33
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:54,720
Speaker 1: the next six to twelve months. If it is slower growth,

34
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:58,480
Speaker 1: that's not necessarily a bad thing. We've been growing at

35
00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:02,800
Speaker 1: such an accelerated pay case that some slowing should be expected,

36
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:06,280
Speaker 1: at least in terms of the rate of growth. So

37
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:09,799
Speaker 1: we're still positioned in a post recession environment. We think

38
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 1: the U S economy as well as the global economy,

39
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,959
Speaker 1: we're going to have these moments where we have resurgence

40
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:18,040
Speaker 1: in the path of the pandemic. There's going to be

41
00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 1: increases in cases. Uh, there's still some fair amount of

42
00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:25,959
Speaker 1: accommodation from most central banks around the world. Fiscal policy

43
00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:29,440
Speaker 1: is still supportive. So all things being equal, we're still

44
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:33,120
Speaker 1: positioned for growth, even if it does start to slow

45
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:36,800
Speaker 1: here heading into the last quarter of this year. So

46
00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:38,840
Speaker 1: what are you doing a position for growth? Where are

47
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:44,360
Speaker 1: you putting your money? Yeah, we still If we're thinking

48
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:48,120
Speaker 1: about how we're constructing portfolios, we're using what we call

49
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:52,520
Speaker 1: our three B methodology. Right now, we're broadly asset allocating,

50
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:56,000
Speaker 1: so we're using a broad representation of asset classes, stocks, bonds,

51
00:02:56,480 --> 00:03:00,000
Speaker 1: real estate, investments, commodities, you name it. We're putting representation

52
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:04,079
Speaker 1: should again in a broad base of asset classes. We're

53
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:08,280
Speaker 1: really balancing between growth and value right now. We're not

54
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 1: tilting one way or another too heavily. We may favor

55
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:14,800
Speaker 1: the growth side right now, it's still staying pretty balanced.

56
00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:18,920
Speaker 1: And then we're also being relatively bond light in most

57
00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:22,480
Speaker 1: of our allocations. We think pathive least resistance for yields

58
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:26,760
Speaker 1: is likely higher, and so we are favoring equities over

59
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:30,920
Speaker 1: fixed income. Now, you know, so broad asset allocation balance

60
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:34,119
Speaker 1: between growth and value and bond light is really what

61
00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:36,920
Speaker 1: we're thinking about. So, you know, a lot of folks,

62
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:40,040
Speaker 1: you know, they're thinking about, do I need to stick

63
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:41,840
Speaker 1: with some of those tried and true growth stories they

64
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:44,760
Speaker 1: give me both top line and bottom line growth, whether

65
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:47,320
Speaker 1: it's a you know, a Microsoft or and Apple or

66
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:50,360
Speaker 1: something along those lines, maybe some healthcare names, or do

67
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:54,120
Speaker 1: I kind of, you know, really embrace this um reopening

68
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:57,240
Speaker 1: and think about rotation into some more cyclical names. Maybe

69
00:03:57,240 --> 00:03:59,520
Speaker 1: I can get some small cap and get some return there.

70
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:04,040
Speaker 1: How do guys think about the equity allocation within equities?

71
00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:07,920
Speaker 1: We we did broaden out earlier this year there as well,

72
00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 1: so we did start to increase our exposures to MIT

73
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 1: and small cap earlier in the year. We haven't pulled

74
00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 1: back from those decisions. We still are predominantly large tap

75
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:23,080
Speaker 1: domestic equity focused, but we still have our broader representations.

76
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:27,040
Speaker 1: There could be some challenges with the idea of slower growth,

77
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:31,760
Speaker 1: maybe not as much support by way of stimulus or accommodation.

78
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:34,720
Speaker 1: That could have impact some of those smaller or mid

79
00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:40,039
Speaker 1: sized companies, But generally speaking, we're still favorable on all

80
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:44,120
Speaker 1: of the different market capitalizations here. We haven't changed our allocation.

81
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:46,280
Speaker 1: We are a little bit in a wait and see

82
00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:49,360
Speaker 1: moment with the FED meeting this week. We also have

83
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:54,520
Speaker 1: some fiscal policy decisions coming at US and the quarter

84
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:58,720
Speaker 1: here and taxes potentially, uh, which is something that we

85
00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:00,839
Speaker 1: always talk about with our client in the fourth quarter

86
00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:03,840
Speaker 1: of each year, but this year is going to be

87
00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:07,599
Speaker 1: a particularly challenging set of circumstances if we don't have

88
00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:10,240
Speaker 1: a whole lot of clarity on what the tax ramifications

89
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,280
Speaker 1: maybe for next year. Yeah, I mean, that's got to

90
00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:15,280
Speaker 1: be the biggest there's so many question marks chat I know,

91
00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:18,240
Speaker 1: but taxes for for your business has to be one

92
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:21,680
Speaker 1: of the biggest ones. It is, and we've had such

93
00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:26,479
Speaker 1: a great rebound from where we were March of that

94
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:30,839
Speaker 1: there's a lot of embedded unrealized games and portfolios, and

95
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:33,839
Speaker 1: so for those folks with taxable investments that have gains,

96
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:36,719
Speaker 1: there's some decisions to be made ahead of what could

97
00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:40,320
Speaker 1: be some potential tax increases. So we will be talking

98
00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:45,840
Speaker 1: very closely to our clients about that. We're not tax advisors,

99
00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:48,520
Speaker 1: so we'll be working with some of their other professionals

100
00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:51,479
Speaker 1: within their financial lives, but that is part of the

101
00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:55,400
Speaker 1: equation for particularly hind that with worth investors, What do

102
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:57,320
Speaker 1: you do with some of these games? How and when

103
00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:00,400
Speaker 1: do you realize those? Do you have potential bosses and

104
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:03,120
Speaker 1: other parts of your portfolio? Again, we'll be working with

105
00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:06,520
Speaker 1: the tax advisors, but it is a conversation that will

106
00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,640
Speaker 1: start to pick up here as we enter the fourth quarter. Hey, Chat,

107
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:12,080
Speaker 1: thanks so much for joining us here today. We appreciate

108
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:15,400
Speaker 1: getting your thoughts here on these markets. Chat oh yet,

109
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:19,640
Speaker 1: senior vice president, director of investment management at Huntington's private

110
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:23,880
Speaker 1: bank located and I think the state of State of Ohio.

111
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:27,920
Speaker 1: There you go with the Ohio State University, So look

112
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:30,039
Speaker 1: forward to that anyway. Chat kind of talking about a

113
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:33,320
Speaker 1: broad diversification of a portfolio, and we've heard that from

114
00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:36,040
Speaker 1: others like Barry Ridholts as well. Well more coming up

115
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:41,240
Speaker 1: this is Bloomberg. Well, Matt and I we've been following

116
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:45,480
Speaker 1: this global supply chain issue, you know, four months now.

117
00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:48,040
Speaker 1: It just really doesn't seem to be getting any better

118
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:52,400
Speaker 1: in effects so many different industries across the board. And

119
00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:54,440
Speaker 1: the story jumped out at me today that I wanted

120
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:57,800
Speaker 1: to talk about, and that is us real estate builders

121
00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:00,640
Speaker 1: building homes. Tough to find material, It was tough to

122
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:03,000
Speaker 1: find people that are work and build these houses. Craig

123
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:05,960
Speaker 1: Giammona joins this US real estate team leader for Bloomberg News,

124
00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:08,440
Speaker 1: and his claim to fame, in my opinion, was he

125
00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:12,320
Speaker 1: was the sports editor for the Daily Sitka Sentin. Aware

126
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 1: of Sitka. You might a Sitka Sitka. That's awesome. Who

127
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:19,800
Speaker 1: is that on the resume? Sitka Alaska? That's awesome. Uh, Craig,

128
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:22,600
Speaker 1: thanks so much for joining us here. So we're hearing

129
00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:27,000
Speaker 1: from the home builders that the supply chain challenges are

130
00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:30,600
Speaker 1: impacting their business as well. What's going on, Yeah, you

131
00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:32,160
Speaker 1: know that this has kind of been out there for

132
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:33,920
Speaker 1: a while, as you said, right, so the supply chain

133
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:37,000
Speaker 1: has been snarled really across the globe. Started with lumber

134
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:39,000
Speaker 1: that was a pretty high profile. Some of that has

135
00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:41,480
Speaker 1: eased off, but you're really seeing sort of the macro

136
00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:44,520
Speaker 1: factors that we know about showing up in in the

137
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:47,400
Speaker 1: home builder world. And they're talking about it in their

138
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:49,720
Speaker 1: in their earnings. Hard time getting workers, hard time getting

139
00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:53,640
Speaker 1: things like windows and would and you know it's slowing

140
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 1: them down. I mean, I think the flip side a

141
00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:57,240
Speaker 1: little bit is that they're making a ton of money

142
00:07:57,240 --> 00:07:59,120
Speaker 1: on these homes. You know, there was a problem. There

143
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:01,520
Speaker 1: was sort of a guidance yesterday from Pulty Group, but

144
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:03,800
Speaker 1: they did say our margin is up, so we don't

145
00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:05,840
Speaker 1: think it's going to affect earnings, but it's slowing down

146
00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:09,160
Speaker 1: their ability to build these homes. What what do you

147
00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:13,800
Speaker 1: think about? I mean, you're the US real estate team leader.

148
00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:16,560
Speaker 1: What a hot subject, probably one of the most popular

149
00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:21,040
Speaker 1: dinner guests wherever you live. Um, what do you think about?

150
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:25,200
Speaker 1: Prices that have gone crazy? Um, supply that has dried up?

151
00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:28,880
Speaker 1: Where's this market headed? You know, there's really no We've

152
00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:31,720
Speaker 1: been waiting, right, There's been things froze up in March.

153
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:34,600
Speaker 1: It was very quiet in April and May, but as

154
00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:37,480
Speaker 1: soon as people started to move around again, they felt

155
00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:39,400
Speaker 1: a little bit better about wearing a mask and having

156
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:42,040
Speaker 1: an open house. The market now has really been on

157
00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:44,440
Speaker 1: fire for the better part of a year and a half.

158
00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:47,760
Speaker 1: And you know, the laws of gravity still exists, right,

159
00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:49,440
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know how long we can see

160
00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:52,760
Speaker 1: The prices can't come down, right, Craig, How housing prices

161
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:56,280
Speaker 1: don't ever fall? That's that's right? What could ever go wrong?

162
00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:59,360
Speaker 1: But I mean I think all getting aside um, it's

163
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:02,240
Speaker 1: been months after months after months, and I think a

164
00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:04,160
Speaker 1: lot of us are sitting here saying what something has

165
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:06,920
Speaker 1: to give here? But mortgage rates are still at historically

166
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:10,679
Speaker 1: low levels below three percent, and there's tremendous demand. There's

167
00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:13,920
Speaker 1: a gigantic millennial generation that sort of delayed home purchases

168
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:16,720
Speaker 1: they had student debt, but now those people are thirty

169
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:20,240
Speaker 1: five having the second kid. The pandemic sort of made

170
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:22,760
Speaker 1: people a lot of people reevaluate cities like you know,

171
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:26,520
Speaker 1: Manhattan or San Francisco. So there's just tremendous demand for

172
00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:29,400
Speaker 1: homes that we don't have enough. We've underbuilt for decades,

173
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:33,679
Speaker 1: and that's why prices continue to go up. So, Craig,

174
00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:36,440
Speaker 1: you know, I read a Bloomberg story. You know, another

175
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:39,520
Speaker 1: logistic issue, just saying, how you know a cargo ship

176
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:43,160
Speaker 1: was loaded in Asia, sailed for Los Angeles Long Branch,

177
00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:45,400
Speaker 1: took nineteen days to get there, and then when I

178
00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:48,480
Speaker 1: got there, it's now sitting there for twenty days, still

179
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:52,280
Speaker 1: not able to unload. Uh, it's cargo. Are any of

180
00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:55,600
Speaker 1: these homebuilders given any guidance as to when they think

181
00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:59,560
Speaker 1: things will improve in their business? They haven't, and they

182
00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:02,560
Speaker 1: haven't got incredibly specific about like where the pain points are,

183
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:04,880
Speaker 1: but I think we know that things like that are

184
00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:08,280
Speaker 1: showing up. I mean, there's labor issues, so they haven't

185
00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:09,679
Speaker 1: said too much of that. I mean, I think the

186
00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:11,600
Speaker 1: good thing for the home builders right now is that

187
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:14,320
Speaker 1: they can sell every home they build, and they're selling

188
00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:17,559
Speaker 1: them fast. Um. Some of this, you know, going back

189
00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:19,200
Speaker 1: a couple of months, we had us we broke a

190
00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:22,520
Speaker 1: story that these builders were deliberately slowing down sales, and

191
00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:24,400
Speaker 1: now some of them have come out and said that

192
00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:27,040
Speaker 1: because they don't want to disappoint buyers. I also think

193
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:29,560
Speaker 1: an element of that was with the commodities being so

194
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:32,360
Speaker 1: volatile that they didn't want to lock in contracts when

195
00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:34,960
Speaker 1: these homes are still under under construction because you know,

196
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:36,839
Speaker 1: wait three months and maybe the price is going to

197
00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:38,800
Speaker 1: be fifteen percent higher. So I think some of this

198
00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:41,640
Speaker 1: was them trying to control the business. And I think

199
00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:44,280
Speaker 1: I still think that they're there. You know. The good thing,

200
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:46,080
Speaker 1: like I said, the backdrop here is that there's no

201
00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:48,400
Speaker 1: shortage of buyers for these homes. There's billions and billions

202
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:50,600
Speaker 1: of dollars that's been raised on Wall Street, uh to

203
00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:53,560
Speaker 1: go after these homes, you know, by institutional investors, not

204
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:55,840
Speaker 1: to mention sort of the first time buyers and the

205
00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:59,040
Speaker 1: families that are trying to get into the wealth creation

206
00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:01,199
Speaker 1: pipeline that we believe been for you know, fifty years

207
00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:05,040
Speaker 1: in this country. Is there any indication that the government

208
00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:07,959
Speaker 1: wants to step in and do something. I mean, it's

209
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:11,160
Speaker 1: terribly un American to intervene in markets like that. But

210
00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:15,680
Speaker 1: here in Germany, you know they're talking about, well, we've

211
00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:18,319
Speaker 1: got rent caps and everything like New York City, but

212
00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:21,959
Speaker 1: they're also talking about taking property back um in. In

213
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:25,000
Speaker 1: in Canada, you've got both parties were saying they wanted

214
00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 1: to block foreign buyers from um the markets for at

215
00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:31,120
Speaker 1: least a couple of years. Are you hearing anything like

216
00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:33,560
Speaker 1: that out of the US. It's very interesting. I mean,

217
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:35,880
Speaker 1: somebody else another editor of Boomberg asked me this very

218
00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:38,040
Speaker 1: question this morning. But whether when I think this is

219
00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:40,200
Speaker 1: going to become a political issue in the United States.

220
00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:42,080
Speaker 1: I mean, it's sort of one of these things where

221
00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:44,120
Speaker 1: I just think we have a very different attitude about

222
00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:47,360
Speaker 1: it in the US than they do in Europe or Canada. Um.

223
00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:50,360
Speaker 1: I think affordability is a huge problem. You'll see the

224
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:53,160
Speaker 1: Democrats talk about it at a high level, but as

225
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:55,280
Speaker 1: far as specific plans to address I mean, the Buiding

226
00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:58,680
Speaker 1: administration has put some money into building more affordable housing.

227
00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:02,360
Speaker 1: But these things are very, very tricky in a capitalist society,

228
00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:05,160
Speaker 1: very tricky to control. And like you said, it's un

229
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:08,120
Speaker 1: American for the government to a lot of people believe

230
00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:10,400
Speaker 1: it's Unamerican for the government to step in and try

231
00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:12,560
Speaker 1: to control this. But you know, I don't think it's

232
00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:15,640
Speaker 1: hyperbole to say that we're looking at a generational shift

233
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:18,040
Speaker 1: in the ability of people to buy homes. I mean,

234
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:19,679
Speaker 1: I think there's a generation of people that just might

235
00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:21,839
Speaker 1: have to rent. You know that that three hundred thousand

236
00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:25,079
Speaker 1: dollars home for a first time buyer, that's the thing

237
00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:27,440
Speaker 1: that doesn't exist. You know, people that were in homes

238
00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:30,120
Speaker 1: they were able to refy. You know, they've they've managed

239
00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:32,480
Speaker 1: to buy homes for cash, they bought second homes. This

240
00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:34,640
Speaker 1: really has been a housing valley fueled at the high end,

241
00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:37,880
Speaker 1: and it is creating some some serious questions that I

242
00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:40,200
Speaker 1: think could become a political issue, but very very tricky

243
00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:42,839
Speaker 1: to deal with that, I think in a substant way. Craig.

244
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:45,040
Speaker 1: You know when when you've spoken to homebuilders in the past,

245
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:48,480
Speaker 1: you know they've said that they're not really buying entry level,

246
00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:51,200
Speaker 1: they're not building entry homes because the margin on some

247
00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:53,440
Speaker 1: of the bigger homes is much much better for them.

248
00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:56,840
Speaker 1: And to think is that one of the contributors to

249
00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:59,480
Speaker 1: this housing problem, that that he just historically have not

250
00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:03,760
Speaker 1: been building entry level for first time buyer. Yes, absolutely,

251
00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:05,880
Speaker 1: and that that goes back to the last crash. I mean,

252
00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:07,719
Speaker 1: I think they came out of you know, look, we've

253
00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:10,520
Speaker 1: underbuilt in this country for three or four decades, if

254
00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:13,120
Speaker 1: you look at the chart, just we haven't kept up

255
00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:15,800
Speaker 1: and we're running out of land. Zoning is a big

256
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:18,120
Speaker 1: problem in a lot of the country. Single families zoning

257
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:20,600
Speaker 1: is a political issue, but because there's a lot of

258
00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:22,720
Speaker 1: sort of well meaning, wellmaning people that would agree we

259
00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:25,240
Speaker 1: have an affordability crisis, but when the proposal shows up

260
00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:27,720
Speaker 1: in their town, they say, no way, I want to

261
00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:30,120
Speaker 1: keep single family zonning. You know, the Nimbi factor is

262
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:33,079
Speaker 1: a big effect. So we've underbuilt for a long time,

263
00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:35,640
Speaker 1: and coming out of the last crash, you're right, the

264
00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:38,640
Speaker 1: builders basically said, the margin is much better at the

265
00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:41,959
Speaker 1: high end. You know, it costs me maybe only slightly

266
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:43,679
Speaker 1: more to build this high end home and I can

267
00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:47,040
Speaker 1: make a lot more selling it. So there has been

268
00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:49,480
Speaker 1: an underbuilding problem at the low end. That is probably

269
00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:52,600
Speaker 1: something that government could try to address. But you know,

270
00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:55,160
Speaker 1: right now we're dealing with a severe shortage of of

271
00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:57,240
Speaker 1: places to live. And oh, by the way, rent is up.

272
00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:59,400
Speaker 1: You know, rent is up all over the country, basically

273
00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:02,400
Speaker 1: everywhere the side Manhattan and San Francisco. Rent has gone

274
00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:05,120
Speaker 1: through the loop. That's because people with good six figure

275
00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:08,640
Speaker 1: jobs can't find home subai and are now renters. Better

276
00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:10,719
Speaker 1: to be a settler than a buyer in this real

277
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:13,720
Speaker 1: estate market, is what I've been told Matt Craig giammona

278
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:16,480
Speaker 1: US real estate team leader for Bloomberg News his Twitter

279
00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:21,840
Speaker 1: handle at Sitka Writer, Sitka Alaska boom didn't see that comes,

280
00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:24,480
Speaker 1: so Craig Gimmona giving us the latest on housing supply

281
00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:29,040
Speaker 1: chain issues impacting that industry as well, lumber prices, labor,

282
00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:34,880
Speaker 1: you name it. Now. I remember when I was a kid,

283
00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:39,560
Speaker 1: maybe fourth or fifth grade, and my dad had started

284
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:41,560
Speaker 1: a project to put a deck on the back of

285
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:47,320
Speaker 1: the house, and he was like in seventh heaven, absolutely obsessed.

286
00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:50,760
Speaker 1: It was all he could think about, studying every possible

287
00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:53,760
Speaker 1: material he could use, you know, figuring out what the

288
00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:57,080
Speaker 1: maintenance would be, planning it was like it was like

289
00:14:57,120 --> 00:14:58,600
Speaker 1: the greatest thing that ever happened to him. And I

290
00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:02,000
Speaker 1: didn't get why until I got my own house, and

291
00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:05,760
Speaker 1: now I totally get it, especially after the pandemic. A

292
00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:10,320
Speaker 1: deck is like your own private little escape. Brian Fairbanks

293
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:13,280
Speaker 1: joins us right now, President CEO of Treks. They make

294
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:18,440
Speaker 1: the alternative wood uh decking material that all homeowners are

295
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:24,920
Speaker 1: probably familiar with. Brian, I imagine your business was absolutely

296
00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:30,600
Speaker 1: booming during lockdown. How's it going now? Yeah, things continue

297
00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:32,760
Speaker 1: to move along well. So thanks for having me on

298
00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:36,200
Speaker 1: this morning, both Matt and Paul. As we moved into

299
00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:39,080
Speaker 1: the pandemic last year, of course, there were a lot

300
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:42,960
Speaker 1: of questions about the economy early on, but pretty quickly

301
00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:45,920
Speaker 1: after that and people were staying at home realized they

302
00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:49,040
Speaker 1: had time to work on their homes, and we saw

303
00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:53,040
Speaker 1: our numbers increased quite rapidly through that time period, and

304
00:15:53,080 --> 00:16:00,120
Speaker 1: we've continued to see that tailwind into two one. As

305
00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:04,440
Speaker 1: we look forward, we still continue to see opportunities for

306
00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:08,720
Speaker 1: strength of outdoor living products and people wanting to be

307
00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:12,600
Speaker 1: able to build low cost outdoor space on their home

308
00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:17,880
Speaker 1: so give us a sense of um your supply chain.

309
00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:21,680
Speaker 1: We've heard from so many different company executives and across

310
00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:24,320
Speaker 1: the globe that they can't get the materials they need,

311
00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:26,840
Speaker 1: and if they do get the materials, they don't have

312
00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:29,840
Speaker 1: the labor to actually build it. Talk to us about

313
00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:33,120
Speaker 1: your business, how you're dealing with that. Sure, it's fair

314
00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:36,240
Speaker 1: to say that we've had our share of challenges. Last

315
00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:40,080
Speaker 1: year we grew over as a company, and year to

316
00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:44,040
Speaker 1: date through the second quarter, we've grown thirty two so

317
00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:47,840
Speaker 1: that puts a lot of pressures on our suppliers. Of course,

318
00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:50,640
Speaker 1: we had the freeze down in Texas earlier this year,

319
00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:54,080
Speaker 1: so some of the additives and various polymers that go

320
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:58,960
Speaker 1: into our product were impacted by that. But overall, with

321
00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:02,480
Speaker 1: these six us of our supply chain group, we've been

322
00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:06,560
Speaker 1: able to manage our way through without having any main

323
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:13,440
Speaker 1: outages of material. Where do you put together you're decking,

324
00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:16,240
Speaker 1: I know it's it's mostly recycled materials, right, So where

325
00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:17,800
Speaker 1: do you source that and where do you put it?

326
00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:22,320
Speaker 1: Put it all together? Yeah? Correct Tracks is unique in

327
00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:27,359
Speaker 1: that of the content that goes into our deck boards

328
00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:32,040
Speaker 1: is recycled material It's polyethylene stretch film and bags from

329
00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:36,600
Speaker 1: grocery stores as well as reclaimed would we purchase that

330
00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:40,320
Speaker 1: from all over the country and up into Canada. We

331
00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:43,840
Speaker 1: will leark work with some of the larger grocery change,

332
00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:49,879
Speaker 1: larger distributors, anybody who is using polyethylene as protective wrap

333
00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:54,040
Speaker 1: on manufactured parts. And we've built our program to be

334
00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:58,320
Speaker 1: a service to these organizations where instead of paying to

335
00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:02,000
Speaker 1: put this material into land, we can provide them payment

336
00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:04,800
Speaker 1: and get it off their shipping dot quickly and put

337
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:09,280
Speaker 1: it into trucks decking products. So some companies says they

338
00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:12,959
Speaker 1: think about how their business was impacted by the pandemic

339
00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:16,080
Speaker 1: and the changes in everybody's day to day lifestyles. A

340
00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:19,800
Speaker 1: lot of businesses were able to pull demand forward, whether

341
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:23,800
Speaker 1: you're a peloton provider or or something else. And when

342
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:26,080
Speaker 1: you look at your business, did you see I mean,

343
00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:28,840
Speaker 1: the growth rate you're talking about not typical. I wouldn't

344
00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:31,560
Speaker 1: think in that business. So how much of your growth

345
00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:33,439
Speaker 1: that you've experienced over the last you know, four or

346
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:36,040
Speaker 1: five quarters do you feel it's just literally pulled forward

347
00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:41,560
Speaker 1: from the following the upcoming quarters. Pre pandemic timeframe, Trucks

348
00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:45,639
Speaker 1: Company was growing between fourteen and six, we've seen higher

349
00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:49,359
Speaker 1: growth in the meantime as we come out of the pandemic,

350
00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:53,400
Speaker 1: we have significant opportunities to be able to continue growing

351
00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:57,840
Speaker 1: in that high teens type level as we focus on

352
00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:02,439
Speaker 1: converting more people who would have been installing wood decks today.

353
00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:06,240
Speaker 1: Would decks account for about seventy eight percent of the

354
00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:09,840
Speaker 1: overall industry, and our key strategy is to convert more

355
00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:12,800
Speaker 1: of that two treks at the rate of two hundred

356
00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:16,160
Speaker 1: or more basis points a year. We also have opportunities

357
00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:21,879
Speaker 1: to grow in international marketplaces as well as focusing more

358
00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:28,040
Speaker 1: on the new builder marketplace. All right, very interesting stuff

359
00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:31,159
Speaker 1: and of course something that I think everybody wants to

360
00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:34,560
Speaker 1: know either more about or has already dealt with throughout

361
00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:39,160
Speaker 1: the pandemic, because a deck is just got to get

362
00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:40,320
Speaker 1: out of the house a little bit. It's just a

363
00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:43,760
Speaker 1: man's castle or a woman's castle if you're a woman

364
00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:47,240
Speaker 1: who's into decks, which I'm sure a lot of them are. UM, Brian,

365
00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:50,040
Speaker 1: thanks so much for joining us, Brian Fairbanks. They're joining

366
00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:54,280
Speaker 1: us from Treks talking about their recycled deck materials and

367
00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:57,000
Speaker 1: the growth they've seen and the growth that they expect

368
00:19:57,160 --> 00:20:00,600
Speaker 1: to come um, I dream of a day when I

369
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:02,680
Speaker 1: will be back in the United States of America putting

370
00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:04,119
Speaker 1: a deck on the back of my house. I'll consider

371
00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:10,840
Speaker 1: treks boards. Let's get over to Fernando Valet. Now I

372
00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:13,639
Speaker 1: told you are oil and gas analysts and Bloomberg Intelligence

373
00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:16,120
Speaker 1: was going to join us on a couple of uh,

374
00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:19,639
Speaker 1: we're really big stories. And Fernando, let's start with the

375
00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:23,960
Speaker 1: Conico Phillips purchase of UM assets in the Permian Basin

376
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:26,080
Speaker 1: Shell assets in the Permian Basin. It's a nine and

377
00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:29,560
Speaker 1: a half billion dollar acquisition. What are the BFW bullet

378
00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:32,880
Speaker 1: points we should know about here? Well, the big thing

379
00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:37,800
Speaker 1: is Conicos acquiring uh, pretty continuous acreage to its most

380
00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:41,960
Speaker 1: recent deal, the Concho Resources acquisition, which had announced in

381
00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:45,280
Speaker 1: October of last year, and they are acquiring about a

382
00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:47,879
Speaker 1: hundred and seventy five thousand barrels a day of production,

383
00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:50,680
Speaker 1: which they expect to grow to two hundred thousand barrels

384
00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:55,160
Speaker 1: next year and two d twenty five thousand acres UM.

385
00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:57,760
Speaker 1: And they believe they can actually get more free cash

386
00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:02,280
Speaker 1: flow UM that way and eventually increase their sharels of

387
00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:06,520
Speaker 1: distributions towards their target and at the same time lower emissions,

388
00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:10,640
Speaker 1: they actually increase their targets to lower greenhouse gas emissions

389
00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:16,680
Speaker 1: tot So for now, as a long time energy analysts

390
00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:18,600
Speaker 1: on Wall Street, you followed these companies for a long

391
00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:21,159
Speaker 1: time and kind of what I even notices in the

392
00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:23,199
Speaker 1: permium base and you know, when things get tough, the

393
00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:25,119
Speaker 1: big guys come in and can kind of roll up

394
00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:28,440
Speaker 1: some of the smaller players here. Um. But the seller

395
00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:31,359
Speaker 1: here's Royal Dutchell, one of the majors. Why is Shell

396
00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:36,040
Speaker 1: selling here? I think there are really two reasons, Paul. First,

397
00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:38,920
Speaker 1: there is a difference of opinion on how the energy

398
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:43,000
Speaker 1: transition will will transcribe between the European majors and the

399
00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:46,520
Speaker 1: US majors, and have addressed that from an emission standpoint.

400
00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:50,080
Speaker 1: So Shell has been kind of exiting more and more

401
00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:54,040
Speaker 1: of the large position oil and gas projects and this

402
00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:58,400
Speaker 1: is a marketable asset obviously there it was a competitive process,

403
00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:02,080
Speaker 1: um and also it was an area where they don't

404
00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:05,840
Speaker 1: necessarily have the greatest expertise. So I think Shells really

405
00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:07,720
Speaker 1: trying to go towards the l m G portion of

406
00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:12,359
Speaker 1: the world. And uh so Shill was was an avenue

407
00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:14,520
Speaker 1: to raise some funds and do some share all the

408
00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:19,520
Speaker 1: ibex um. For Conico, it's really they've reshaped their company

409
00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:21,719
Speaker 1: to focus on focus on show and they're now going

410
00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:24,000
Speaker 1: to be the second largest producer in the lower forty eight.

411
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:27,879
Speaker 1: So it's really a repositioning. If you remember the exited

412
00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:31,040
Speaker 1: deep water in two thousand fifteen, after the oil price

413
00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:35,560
Speaker 1: crash of two thousand fourteen, what about the gas price,

414
00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:38,280
Speaker 1: what about l m G, what about what's going on

415
00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:41,440
Speaker 1: in the UK right now. It's been phenomenal to watch

416
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:44,160
Speaker 1: and it seems like everything that's going wrong to push

417
00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:49,359
Speaker 1: prices higher could absolutely. I think you haven't gotten the

418
00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:52,400
Speaker 1: contribution from renewables that you would have expected in the UK,

419
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:55,920
Speaker 1: and I think it's something that we talked about. It's

420
00:22:56,000 --> 00:23:01,560
Speaker 1: that resilience and ability to switch over very quickly. Unfortunately,

421
00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:05,040
Speaker 1: in Europe you had a confluence of issues from closing

422
00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:09,280
Speaker 1: the coal plants a bit faster than what was originally expected. Uh,

423
00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:12,280
Speaker 1: issues with growing in which was the largest gas shield

424
00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:15,760
Speaker 1: and in Europe and in the Netherlands that's now being

425
00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:19,679
Speaker 1: shut sooner than expected, and all of that because of

426
00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:23,040
Speaker 1: the low oil prices gave an unreal expectation that would

427
00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:25,600
Speaker 1: always be always be the case. And now we're seeing

428
00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:27,520
Speaker 1: that having a bit of more of a basket approach

429
00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:31,360
Speaker 1: to be beneficial as we transition and increase our electricity load.

430
00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:33,760
Speaker 1: All right, we got w T I crewed at seventy

431
00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:36,800
Speaker 1: dollars a barrel. Uh, should I be looking for some

432
00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:40,160
Speaker 1: of these uh you know dudes down in Texas and

433
00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:44,600
Speaker 1: you know, to start putting wells back in the ground. Well,

434
00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:47,080
Speaker 1: on the private side, they really have been. I think

435
00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:52,040
Speaker 1: with consolidation of Echo and Shell and others like uh,

436
00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:56,159
Speaker 1: Pioneer and and and Parsley. What happens is actually you

437
00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:59,320
Speaker 1: put fewer because you start to high grate your portfolio,

438
00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:01,359
Speaker 1: so you only drew of your better wells and you

439
00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:04,000
Speaker 1: pace it a little bit more differently. So I think

440
00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:08,800
Speaker 1: cover intuitively, all these mergers will actually reduce the amount

441
00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:11,920
Speaker 1: of of well as you would have seen even the

442
00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:15,280
Speaker 1: oil press arising quickly. All right, Fernando, thanks so much

443
