Your emphasis on that is an important one. 20 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:11,600 Speaker 1: Chris Harvey wasn't a KEM major, but he was a 21 00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 1: bucknell which is like the Buckneil bubble. All you do 22 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:16,800 Speaker 1: is study financiers here because the winters are so cold. 23 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:20,520 Speaker 1: He joins US now Equity Strategy at Wells Fargo. Your note, 24 00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:27,200 Speaker 1: Chris is absolutely brilliant about thinking back to nineteen ninety eight, 25 00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:30,679 Speaker 1: ninety nine into two thousand and two thousand and one 26 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:34,679 Speaker 1: tech the analog of looking back. What's the number one 27 00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:38,520 Speaker 1: message in your study of this tech bubble versus that 28 00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:39,360 Speaker 1: tech bubble? 29 00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 4: So the number one issue is tech is not going 30 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:44,600 Speaker 4: to roll over. The major theme is not going to 31 00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:47,600 Speaker 4: roll over until you crack the economy. That's what happened 32 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:50,440 Speaker 4: back in ninety nine. That's like what's going to happen now. 33 00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:52,920 Speaker 4: And I don't think you cracked the economy until the 34 00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:55,720 Speaker 4: FED gets more aggressive, and so we'll have some wiggles. 35 00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:57,480 Speaker 4: I think we'll have a pull back in the market, 36 00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:00,160 Speaker 4: we'll have a pullback in big tech, but that for 37 00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:03,680 Speaker 4: all theme is still in place, and not until the 38 00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:08,160 Speaker 4: economy breaks do we really think about that trend breaking. 39 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:12,160 Speaker 5: Is tech in a set of individual companies you study 40 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:14,800 Speaker 5: at Wells Fargo or is it this a morphous sector 41 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 5: blob up there like a nineteen fifty sci fi movie. 42 00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 4: We do study tech, we do study individual companies, but 43 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:25,760 Speaker 4: what we do is we focus in on a lot 44 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:27,880 Speaker 4: on the uber what we call the uber cap or 45 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:30,320 Speaker 4: the top fifty names. You can look at one or 46 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:32,639 Speaker 4: two names and that's great, but that doesn't give you 47 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 4: a trend. And we look at the uber caps because 48 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 4: as you go across capitalization, small cap, MidCap, large cap, 49 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 4: they all have characteristics, and the uber caps are the 50 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:43,799 Speaker 4: ones that really have that AI exposure, that tech exposure. 51 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,640 Speaker 4: And again going back to nineteen ninety nine, that's one 52 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:48,480 Speaker 4: of the things that we did see. We saw that 53 00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:51,440 Speaker 4: uber cap out performance, we saw that tech oup performance, 54 00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:54,160 Speaker 4: and before all that, we saw the economy and the 55 00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:55,880 Speaker 4: old economy stocks roll over. 56 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:57,960 Speaker 3: You said something I want to pick up on. You 57 00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:00,679 Speaker 3: don't crack the economy until the FED gets more aggressive. 58 00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 3: Are you saying the FED hasn't gotten aggressive? 59 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 4: They said the FED has gotten aggressive. But I think 60 00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:08,919 Speaker 4: we can all agree that the economy is a lot 61 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:12,280 Speaker 4: less interestrate sensitive than we thought. The way we're characterizing 62 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:15,200 Speaker 4: the economy is an economic malaise. We did think we 63 00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:18,799 Speaker 4: were going to We thought the probability of recession spiked 64 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:20,960 Speaker 4: with the banking crisis, but now we think that's come 65 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 4: back down, and so we're really looking at an economic 66 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:27,520 Speaker 4: malaise more or less than a recession on the horizon. Right, 67 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:30,480 Speaker 4: the consumer is still okay, still has cash on the 68 00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:33,119 Speaker 4: balance sheet, eating through their savings, but still has savings. 69 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:36,640 Speaker 4: Corporations still have plenty of savings. Balance sheets are much better, 70 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 4: and so really you need some sort of shock to 71 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 4: get us into a recession. We need a lot more time. 72 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 4: This is taking a lot longer than we expect, and 73 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:46,600 Speaker 4: I think it will take a lot longer than we expect. 74 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:49,480 Speaker 3: Do you think that the amount that people are willing 75 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:53,200 Speaker 3: to pay for goods will come down, that there will 76 00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:56,400 Speaker 3: start to be some consumer pushback at a time when 77 00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:58,720 Speaker 3: we just heard FedEx. Yes, you're seeing volumes down, but 78 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 3: there's still increasing prices more than expected. And that is 79 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 3: a theme across a lot of different industries. 80 00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 4: So I may go off on a little bit of 81 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,160 Speaker 4: a tangent if I do, just pulling back in because I. 82 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 6: Talk about don't worry, it'll lot care about it. 83 00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:14,760 Speaker 4: So I talk about the consumer a lot. And if 84 00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:17,440 Speaker 4: you think about the US consumer, the US consumer has 85 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 4: been buying, and I'll exaggerate a little bit since he 86 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:21,920 Speaker 4: or she was five years old. Right, it's a very 87 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 4: savvy consumer. We've been spending a lot of money. We 88 00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:27,840 Speaker 4: know when there's utility. And what I'm seeing is the 89 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:30,240 Speaker 4: US consumer has been pulling back. They've been pulling back 90 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:32,760 Speaker 4: on goods. They're not finding a lot of utility there. 91 00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:35,479 Speaker 4: If you look at at real retail sales, if you 92 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:38,360 Speaker 4: look at at retail sales in general, it's not as 93 00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:40,720 Speaker 4: strong as you would have expected. You are seeing if 94 00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 4: you go to the walmarts and the targets, you are 95 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:46,520 Speaker 4: seeing a trade down. The US consumer's behavior has changed, 96 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:48,279 Speaker 4: and I think the US consumer is a lot more 97 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:49,839 Speaker 4: savvy than we give here or she. 98 00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 3: Credit for going forward? Then do you think we have 99 00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:57,480 Speaker 3: seen this rolling recession in certain areas that offset something 100 00:04:57,520 --> 00:04:59,159 Speaker 3: that's deeper than an economic blaze? 101 00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 7: Regardless of what FED does. 102 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:03,359 Speaker 3: They are cracking certain segments of the economy and others 103 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:06,320 Speaker 3: continue to chug along because of different advancements and less 104 00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:07,400 Speaker 3: interest rate sensitivity. 105 00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 4: You really hit on a great point, and this is 106 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:12,480 Speaker 4: something we talk about in the office a lot. You 107 00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 4: can't paid to this economy with one brush, and you 108 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 4: are seeing kind of a it's a very heterogeneous economy 109 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,800 Speaker 4: and market. You're seeing certain sectors that have already rolled 110 00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:25,719 Speaker 4: over and are beginning to improve. You're seeing other sectors 111 00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 4: that are beginning to roll over for the first time 112 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:30,159 Speaker 4: in a while. And so one of the things that's 113 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 4: causing this to be in economic delays is there's not 114 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:34,839 Speaker 4: it's not synchronous. 115 00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 2: Right. 116 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 4: The economy is very very If you look at a 117 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:41,919 Speaker 4: housing market, the housing market, the new issue market or 118 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:44,040 Speaker 4: the new market is very strong, but the old one 119 00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:46,159 Speaker 4: is three and thirty. I'm not going to leave my 120 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:48,839 Speaker 4: house because I have a thirty year mortgage at three percent. 121 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:53,400 Speaker 4: Very different. If you look at some of the construction spending, manufacturing, warehousing, 122 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 4: it's through the roof, but other parts of housing and 123 00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 4: construction are begin to roll over. So again, I think 124 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:00,920 Speaker 4: you hit on a very important point. Is something that 125 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:03,960 Speaker 4: we really have been diving into and it's it's hard 126 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:08,479 Speaker 4: to kind of disentangle. But this economy is not it's 127 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:11,840 Speaker 4: not really synced up and you cannot paint it with 128 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 4: one brush, which is why the economy has been a 129 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 4: lot more durable than a lot of people have expected. 130 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:18,440 Speaker 1: And a huge seam of the program this lack of 131 00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:20,240 Speaker 1: aggregation right now is tangible. 132 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:21,840 Speaker 2: I want to point out one thing you can do. 133 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 1: This off the Bloomberg folks, the Bloomberg terminal and the 134 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:28,320 Speaker 1: description screen toes JP. Morgan is owned by institutional seventy 135 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:32,159 Speaker 1: five percent. Apple is owned sixty one percent. I know 136 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 1: you don't want to talk individual securities here, but you 137 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,400 Speaker 1: know what was me, Big Tech to the Moon. We're 138 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:40,239 Speaker 1: all going to die, except can I make the statement 139 00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:42,440 Speaker 1: big Tech is under owned by institutions? 140 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:45,279 Speaker 4: I would agree with that one hundred percent. And what 141 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 4: I what I would say is we do a lot 142 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:49,360 Speaker 4: of positioning work, and in our position work, what we've 143 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:53,400 Speaker 4: seen for years is the Byside community is underweight tech, 144 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:57,120 Speaker 4: but it's mainly underweight Apple and Microsoft. We were talking 145 00:06:57,160 --> 00:07:00,840 Speaker 4: about this in the office five years ago, kind of 146 00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 4: a flip title, but we entitled the Return of the Mac. 147 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 4: And what we had seen back five years ago is 148 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:10,800 Speaker 4: a very big underweight, an exceptional underweight in Apple that's 149 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:13,840 Speaker 4: never closed. And what we're seeing is one of the 150 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 4: things that that's giving us pause andive. I think one 151 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 4: of the things that's pushing the market is this underweight 152 00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,680 Speaker 4: in uber caps in Apple and Microsoft and a few 153 00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:23,440 Speaker 4: of the others, so I would agree with you. What 154 00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:26,840 Speaker 4: you're saying is the institutions are much much more underweight. 155 00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:29,800 Speaker 1: Branda John from Italy emails in and he says, get 156 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:32,640 Speaker 1: a new SPX quote from Chris Harvey here forty two hundred? 157 00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:33,440 Speaker 2: Can you lift it up? 158 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 4: Come on, I gonna make some news. 159 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 2: Here's what I say. So are you in target? But hey, 160 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:41,560 Speaker 2: no one's watching go so. 161 00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:44,119 Speaker 4: Our forty two are your on price targets for two hundred? 162 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 4: At the end of last year, we also had a 163 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 4: soft landing target that was forty four hundred. Right, we 164 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:53,560 Speaker 4: cannot two targets. 165 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:56,840 Speaker 2: Do you have a Harkwark target? If we get a. 166 00:07:56,800 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 4: Horkwarks, I can't give you forty five hundred. But this 167 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:05,680 Speaker 4: is why we go back to it's about the economy. 168 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 4: Because I can make certain adjustments, I can change my estimates, 169 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:11,440 Speaker 4: but really do I have a lot of confidence in that? 170 00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:11,880 Speaker 8: No? 171 00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 4: But what I have a lot of confidence in is 172 00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:16,560 Speaker 4: it's really about the economy. The major trends is not 173 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 4: gonna break until the economy breaks. 174 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,120 Speaker 2: Chris Harvey Wells Frio. 175 00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:33,640 Speaker 1: Francis Donald is a manual Life global chief economist and 176 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:37,040 Speaker 1: strategist she's very good at rining blistering bullet points to 177 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:39,440 Speaker 1: cut to the chase. We're gonna cut to the chase, 178 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:43,120 Speaker 1: which is, we all know the US is way out 179 00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:46,440 Speaker 1: front on inflation versus what we saw in United Kingdom 180 00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:49,920 Speaker 1: today and even Europe Japan being the oddity as well. 181 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:52,680 Speaker 1: And you look at the non linearity here. You picked 182 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:55,720 Speaker 1: the point three percent. The answer is core inflation's coming down. 183 00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:58,200 Speaker 1: There's a little bit of a vector in place. But 184 00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:00,439 Speaker 1: you say the path to two percent, it's going to 185 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:01,040 Speaker 1: be brutal. 186 00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:03,800 Speaker 9: Well, the path to three percent is probably going to 187 00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:05,880 Speaker 9: be quite easy. We'll be there in the next couple 188 00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:08,200 Speaker 9: of months, and then a lot of people will claim bakery. 189 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:10,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure, and I don't see it. 190 00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:13,200 Speaker 9: Well, a huge element of this is base effects that 191 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:15,160 Speaker 9: are coming through. That's just a big part of it. 192 00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:18,240 Speaker 9: But you do point out something really critical, which is 193 00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:20,520 Speaker 9: that if we talk in a year over year, inflation 194 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:23,560 Speaker 9: is healing. But for most Americans and in fact global 195 00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:26,719 Speaker 9: citizens of the world, their price pressures are not coming down. 196 00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:30,720 Speaker 9: They're still paying substantially more than they did several years 197 00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:33,200 Speaker 9: ago and are still going to have that embedded view 198 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:36,959 Speaker 9: that prices are substantially higher. And that's why these central banks, 199 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:40,040 Speaker 9: the FED, the Banks Canada, the Reserve Bank of Australia, 200 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:44,960 Speaker 9: the BOE cannot cannot imply that rate cuts are coming. 201 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:48,120 Speaker 9: If they do that, we will see a reinflation of 202 00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:50,679 Speaker 9: inflation or reinflation of inflation expectations. 203 00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:54,280 Speaker 3: But they've basically said that, and you're still seeing a 204 00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 3: group of people say inflation is going to be hotter 205 00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:59,520 Speaker 3: for longer. They don't have what it takes to actually 206 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 3: come through with these expectations. So at this point, if 207 00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 3: they don't raise rates further, will they lose the battle 208 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:06,680 Speaker 3: with inflation? 209 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:10,000 Speaker 9: Well, no, because a big segment of inflation is not 210 00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:13,880 Speaker 9: coming from interst rate sensitive sectors. Yes, some portion of 211 00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:16,200 Speaker 9: it is. But we are in a new paradigm in 212 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:18,680 Speaker 9: which inflation is being driven I know, we've said it 213 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:22,440 Speaker 9: for years now, more by global morse by supply side factors. 214 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:23,840 Speaker 6: So as we move. 215 00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:25,760 Speaker 9: Forward, and this is why you know this year is interesting, 216 00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 9: The July meeting is interesting, But what keeps me up 217 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 9: at night is twenty twenty four and onwards, because we're 218 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:33,400 Speaker 9: heading into an environment where two to three percent inflation 219 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 9: in our view, will become the norm and central banks 220 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:37,839 Speaker 9: are going to have to make a decision. Do they 221 00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 9: continue to launch us into recessions or lower growth in 222 00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:43,360 Speaker 9: order to put us towards two percent, or do they 223 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:46,240 Speaker 9: admit that the nature of inflation is changing and two 224 00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:48,240 Speaker 9: to three percent is more what we're going to be 225 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:48,680 Speaker 9: looking at. 226 00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:50,760 Speaker 3: This is so important and there's a lot to unpack 227 00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:53,080 Speaker 3: within this. If two to three percent becomes three to 228 00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 3: four percent, how do they make sure it stays within 229 00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:58,760 Speaker 3: a certain range and keep their credibility? Are you saying 230 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:01,079 Speaker 3: that it would be a mistake for this Fed to 231 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:03,120 Speaker 3: reserve to go to five and a half or even 232 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:06,040 Speaker 3: six percent in terms of a FED funds rate in 233 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:09,240 Speaker 3: order to bring inflation down faster, because all they would 234 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:12,480 Speaker 3: do would be to torpedo the economic growth without necessarily 235 00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:13,600 Speaker 3: changing that paradigm. 236 00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:16,320 Speaker 9: What I'm saying is that it's a mistake to ask 237 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:19,760 Speaker 9: central banks to solve inflation all by themselves. That is 238 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:22,079 Speaker 9: the nature of inflation changes. We have to have some 239 00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:25,720 Speaker 9: hard conversations about what we're asking global central bankers to do. Now, 240 00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:27,480 Speaker 9: the FED has a little bit of an out because 241 00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 9: it has a dual mandate. It can look towards the 242 00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:31,880 Speaker 9: employment side of the picture, which, by the way, they're 243 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 9: going to have to change the metrics they look at 244 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:34,240 Speaker 9: in order to do that. 245 00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:35,079 Speaker 6: There are other. 246 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:38,559 Speaker 9: Central banks that have single mandates that are only targeting inflation. 247 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:40,960 Speaker 9: Those central banks are going to have to say, what 248 00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:43,839 Speaker 9: is the cost of two percent? Now that the nature 249 00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:45,079 Speaker 9: of inflation is changing. 250 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:51,200 Speaker 1: If you see the disinflationary trajectory you're outlining assumed be 251 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:55,920 Speaker 1: serious disinflation, what does as a labor component non firm 252 00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:58,080 Speaker 1: payrolls do I mean we have people that come on 253 00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:02,680 Speaker 1: that suggests we could see abrupt decline in non farm payrolls. 254 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:03,240 Speaker 2: Do you buy it? 255 00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:06,240 Speaker 9: Here's the issue with the employment data. Now, in the 256 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,200 Speaker 9: past we would look at non farm payrolls as a 257 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:10,520 Speaker 9: good indicator. We look at the unemployment rate, which of 258 00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:14,520 Speaker 9: course is what the federals. I am looking at weekly 259 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:18,040 Speaker 9: hours worked, among other indicators. And the reason for that 260 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:19,960 Speaker 9: is we have companies that have been very clear they 261 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 9: are still scarred by the labor shortages that have persisted 262 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,960 Speaker 9: over the past several years. They will attempt to cut costs, 263 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:28,760 Speaker 9: likely in ways that are not laying people off. But 264 00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:30,800 Speaker 9: what we're likely to see is you stay employed, you 265 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:33,040 Speaker 9: get to check that box. But the amount of hours 266 00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:36,040 Speaker 9: that you're asked to work decline. Now, weekly hours is 267 00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 9: already back to pre COVID levels. And yet I hear 268 00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:40,559 Speaker 9: all the time, but the labor market's on fire. Well 269 00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:42,760 Speaker 9: not if you look at the actual amount of labor 270 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:46,360 Speaker 9: being consumed in this environment. The unemployment rate is still 271 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:49,560 Speaker 9: going to be probably rising very slowly. We don't actually 272 00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:52,439 Speaker 9: have it going above five percent even in a recession. 273 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:55,600 Speaker 9: But the amount of labor consumed is going to be lower. 274 00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:57,200 Speaker 9: This is why our metrics have to broaden. 275 00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 1: Lisa mentioned earlier something we've talked about in surveillance for quarters. 276 00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:05,240 Speaker 1: I would say, now, which is a solution as patients 277 00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:07,960 Speaker 1: and expansion of the X axis where they stay higher 278 00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:08,600 Speaker 1: for longer. 279 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 2: To me, that's just it's a. 280 00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:13,480 Speaker 1: More efficacious move than to worry about twenty five to 281 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:14,600 Speaker 1: fifty beeps up down. 282 00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:15,200 Speaker 2: Do you buy that? 283 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:18,080 Speaker 9: Absolutely well? The solution to most things is patients, Tom 284 00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:20,160 Speaker 9: and Lisa, I agree with you on that one. So 285 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:23,000 Speaker 9: when we discuss our forecasts, yes we have penciled in 286 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:25,319 Speaker 9: one more rate hike for July, but what we spend 287 00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:27,560 Speaker 9: much more time thinking about is the response to the 288 00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:29,920 Speaker 9: next recession. And at this point, what we're looking at 289 00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 9: in twenty twenty four is yes, the central banks do cut, 290 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:35,480 Speaker 9: the Federal Reserve does cut, but only towards what they 291 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:38,839 Speaker 9: view as neutral, that they don't actually go into easing territory. 292 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:41,680 Speaker 9: They stay restrictive, And of course that brings a question 293 00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:43,480 Speaker 9: that I know you love to ask on this, what 294 00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:46,080 Speaker 9: the heck is neutral? That we don't know for sure? 295 00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 3: When you talk about the resilience in the face of 296 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:51,720 Speaker 3: the rate hikes and the lack of interest rate sensitivity 297 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,280 Speaker 3: in certain areas, what do you make of the fact 298 00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:56,959 Speaker 3: that markets have continued to rally, that we've erased all 299 00:13:56,960 --> 00:13:59,480 Speaker 3: of the losses incurred since the beginning of the raid hikes, 300 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:02,120 Speaker 3: and that we've seen to your yields rise by one 301 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:04,920 Speaker 3: hundred basis points in the past month and a half. 302 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:07,720 Speaker 9: I think you use the word reckoning earlier, which is 303 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:10,960 Speaker 9: I think an important moment. We have historically, for my 304 00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:14,319 Speaker 9: entire career, believed that as you face a recession, central 305 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:17,760 Speaker 9: banks respond, and indeed, you know, my job on the byside, 306 00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 9: working for an asset manager is to input our forecast 307 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:21,880 Speaker 9: to see what different asset classes are going to do 308 00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:24,040 Speaker 9: in a recession. We start saying Okay, there's going to 309 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 9: be an opportunity for equities for fixed income throughout this. 310 00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:31,040 Speaker 9: But when we start modeling recessions without material rate cuts 311 00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:33,320 Speaker 9: or with less rate cuts, then we actually see a 312 00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:36,440 Speaker 9: very different asset class return. It is not a standard 313 00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:39,040 Speaker 9: recession playbook. So what I think is happening now is 314 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:41,920 Speaker 9: a market that's coming to that realization that recession or 315 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:45,120 Speaker 9: bank failures does not equal rate cuts. This is a 316 00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:47,000 Speaker 9: paradigm change from how we've looked at things. 317 00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:49,480 Speaker 3: So why is there such a resilience right if that's 318 00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:52,080 Speaker 3: not going to be rate cuts to the rescue? Is 319 00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:55,040 Speaker 3: that reckoning going to be lower or is it going 320 00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:57,840 Speaker 3: to be that Maybe this economy just isn't interest rate 321 00:14:57,920 --> 00:14:59,560 Speaker 3: sensitive in the way many people expect it. 322 00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:01,400 Speaker 9: There is an element of that, and there's certainly no 323 00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:02,800 Speaker 9: shortage of soft landing. 324 00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:03,080 Speaker 10: Now. 325 00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 9: The issue I have with that and why I think 326 00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:07,480 Speaker 9: there's a disconnect right now between equities which are being 327 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:09,840 Speaker 9: distorted by the AI story. There's no question about that, 328 00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:13,280 Speaker 9: and fundamentals is that every single leading indicator of a 329 00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:17,640 Speaker 9: recession is flashing red. Deeply read Lisa like flashing red. 330 00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:19,440 Speaker 9: So even if I say to my team, okay, I 331 00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:22,400 Speaker 9: want you to have cut in half those indicators. Is 332 00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:25,080 Speaker 9: it still a recession? The answer is yes. So if 333 00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:26,960 Speaker 9: you want to make the point that it's a soft landing, 334 00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:29,840 Speaker 9: you have to discredit the bulk of indicators that have 335 00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:31,320 Speaker 9: traditionally told us a recession. 336 00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:32,080 Speaker 6: And you can do that. 337 00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:34,120 Speaker 9: And there are some strategists that have made very good 338 00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 9: points about excess savings and labor shortages, but I'm not 339 00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:39,720 Speaker 9: quite there yet. So a recession ahead means there's a 340 00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:43,119 Speaker 9: disconnect between prices and fundamentals. That's when we make money, Lisa. 341 00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:47,520 Speaker 1: Thirty seconds quick. Is a stock market disassociated from your 342 00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:49,000 Speaker 1: cautious economic. 343 00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:51,600 Speaker 9: View, Yes, but that's okay. We have tactical time frames, 344 00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:54,320 Speaker 9: medium time frames. Macro is not everything all of the 345 00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:57,360 Speaker 9: time as much time. As much as I would like 346 00:15:57,680 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 9: macro to be the driver, sometimes you have to trade 347 00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:03,840 Speaker 9: off momentum, technicals and sentiment. If you're a tactical portfolio manager, 348 00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:06,040 Speaker 9: that's the moment and recession may still be a couple 349 00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:08,800 Speaker 9: months away, So sometimes there's a disconnect depending on your 350 00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:10,360 Speaker 9: time frame. That's also an opportunity. 351 00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:11,560 Speaker 2: Francis, thank you so much. 352 00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:14,240 Speaker 1: Francis Donald with us with the manual life of Montre 353 00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:16,160 Speaker 1: and Manual Life Investment Management. 354 00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:18,400 Speaker 2: I should say as well. 355 00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:24,720 Speaker 3: By amandam Line, I'm head of macro credit research at 356 00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:28,520 Speaker 3: Blackrock joining us now, Amanda, how much more restrictive do 357 00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:31,400 Speaker 3: five percent rates get as time goes on? 358 00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 7: Well, thank you Lisa and Tom for having me. Good morning. Look, 359 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 7: I think it's a challenging. 360 00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:40,160 Speaker 11: Environment for a large subset of the corporate credit universe, 361 00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:44,400 Speaker 11: specifically the subset that has a large exposure to floating 362 00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:47,640 Speaker 11: rate debt. And you know right now, we've already seen, 363 00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:50,160 Speaker 11: as you well know, the all in cost of debt 364 00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 11: for the leverage loan universe double more than double actually 365 00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:56,360 Speaker 11: since the first quarter of twenty twenty two. And the 366 00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:59,320 Speaker 11: signaling that we receive from central banks, both the FED 367 00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:02,200 Speaker 11: and the ECB is that there's probably more room to 368 00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:05,360 Speaker 11: run there, and President Leguard was very clear on that 369 00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:08,360 Speaker 11: in her press conference recently. So I think that there's 370 00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:11,399 Speaker 11: more upward pressure. But as you noted at the start, 371 00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:14,879 Speaker 11: I think whether we get an extra twenty five or 372 00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:19,200 Speaker 11: fifty basis points from here is probably less relevant than 373 00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:22,320 Speaker 11: the amount of time that we stay in this kind 374 00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:26,240 Speaker 11: of higher cost of capital environment. Because corporates are looking 375 00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:29,840 Speaker 11: at these upcoming maturity walls, which yes they are in 376 00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:33,560 Speaker 11: mostly twenty twenty five, but that will need to be 377 00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:37,080 Speaker 11: addressed sooner rather than later. And for those corporates, we're 378 00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:40,719 Speaker 11: not really expecting any sort of relief, certainly not in 379 00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:41,480 Speaker 11: the form. 380 00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:44,800 Speaker 7: Of rate cuts. And I think actually, if you look at. 381 00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:46,679 Speaker 11: Where the all in yields are and a lot of 382 00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:49,920 Speaker 11: the subsets of the corporate credit market, the risk free 383 00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:52,760 Speaker 11: rate has done a lot of that heavy lifting, and 384 00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 11: spreads are fairly contained, and so there's probably some room 385 00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:58,760 Speaker 11: for spreads even too high. 386 00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:00,800 Speaker 1: There's a lot of math to mat You get that 387 00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:05,200 Speaker 1: from Milando line, Amanda, let me cut to the chase. Finally, 388 00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:08,960 Speaker 1: we have a risk free rate. William Sharp is happy 389 00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:11,560 Speaker 1: we got a risk free rate. And then you've got 390 00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:15,120 Speaker 1: spreads up. And Lisa's pointed out how narrow spreads are. 391 00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:20,520 Speaker 1: What are the ramifications if the actual yield in an 392 00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:25,920 Speaker 1: aggregate corporate space widens out, what actually happens to our 393 00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:27,280 Speaker 1: listeners and viewers. 394 00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:30,879 Speaker 11: I think the first order implication is that you uptick 395 00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:34,520 Speaker 11: in financial distress, and you're already seeing that in the 396 00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:38,040 Speaker 11: default rates. For example, in the US market, the leverage 397 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:41,800 Speaker 11: loan default rate is outpacing the high old bond default 398 00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:45,399 Speaker 11: rate by the largest magnitude since the data on the 399 00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:48,520 Speaker 11: Moody series that we use began in nineteen ninety six, 400 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:52,359 Speaker 11: and realistically over the past two decades, there have been 401 00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:56,360 Speaker 11: very few instances where the loan default rate is outpacing 402 00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:58,760 Speaker 11: the high old bond default rate. And I think really 403 00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:01,040 Speaker 11: that speaks to the point that you're raising. It's that 404 00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 11: that real time marking to market of the higher cost 405 00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:08,080 Speaker 11: of capital in the market. As the policy rate has 406 00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:11,560 Speaker 11: moved higher, borrowing costs for floating rate debt, if they're unheedged, 407 00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:14,639 Speaker 11: have moved higher in tandem, and that's causing stress for 408 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:18,520 Speaker 11: a subset of smaller issuers that don't have the pricing power, 409 00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:21,280 Speaker 11: they don't have the financial flexibility, perhaps they don't have 410 00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:25,400 Speaker 11: the refinancing options, and so they're added disadvantage. Now that's 411 00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:29,359 Speaker 11: not a common subset throughout the best maturity of the market, 412 00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:31,440 Speaker 11: but for the small nswers that will be stressed. 413 00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:37,600 Speaker 1: Is commercial real estate, either actual or securitized. Is commercial 414 00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:41,760 Speaker 1: real estate and opportunity are just a massive weight for 415 00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:42,480 Speaker 1: the washout. 416 00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:46,000 Speaker 11: The way that we're viewing it, is another reason for 417 00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:49,719 Speaker 11: banks to be more selective in lending. So, as you know, 418 00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:52,720 Speaker 11: it's a more than five point five trillion dollar market, 419 00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:56,399 Speaker 11: banks both small and large, own roughly half of that, 420 00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:59,199 Speaker 11: and I think it will take some time for the 421 00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:02,919 Speaker 11: price to discuss process to play through. You know, it's 422 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:06,920 Speaker 11: reasonable to think that metrics that we used in past cycles, 423 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:10,919 Speaker 11: like LTVs, like cap rates may not be as relevant 424 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:14,399 Speaker 11: in this cycle given the significant change in prices that 425 00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:17,320 Speaker 11: we've seen, and also given the interest rate volatility, and 426 00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:20,560 Speaker 11: so I think it will take some time for investors 427 00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:23,160 Speaker 11: to get clarity on the macro which determines the cash 428 00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:26,040 Speaker 11: flows of those assets, and then also to figure out 429 00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 11: where the real bottom exists in price discovery. That's probably 430 00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:33,000 Speaker 11: going to take longer to play out than, for example, 431 00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:36,240 Speaker 11: the stresses that we might see in the corporate credit 432 00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:39,200 Speaker 11: market among those smaller issuers. But it's something that we're 433 00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:42,280 Speaker 11: definitely wanting because it's so interest rate sensitive. I think 434 00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:45,320 Speaker 11: the real point, though, Tom, is that just like commercial 435 00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:47,840 Speaker 11: real estate can't be painted with a broad brush, all 436 00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:49,320 Speaker 11: cre is not created equal. 437 00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:52,400 Speaker 7: Office we think is perhaps the most vulnerable. 438 00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:56,240 Speaker 11: Similarly, in the corporate credit market, quality means much more 439 00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:59,920 Speaker 11: than ratings. It's really nuanced it means pricing power, refin 440 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:04,359 Speaker 11: dancing options, business model resilience, and those are really things 441 00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:07,040 Speaker 11: that I think will be increasingly important in the second 442 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:09,640 Speaker 11: half of the year because the fact of the matter 443 00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:11,600 Speaker 11: is that we didn't make as much progress on taming 444 00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:15,360 Speaker 11: inflation as we liked. There's probably upside risk to policy 445 00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:17,919 Speaker 11: rates a higher cost of capital environment, and so we 446 00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:21,639 Speaker 11: need to tread carefully when we think about what companies 447 00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:25,080 Speaker 11: and sectors and asset classes are best positioned for that environment. 448 00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:27,440 Speaker 3: And the upside risk to policy rates is what people 449 00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:29,639 Speaker 3: are focused on when they listen to Fedho J. Powell 450 00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:32,280 Speaker 3: as he takes the seed on Capitol Hill in about 451 00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:34,840 Speaker 3: two and a half hours from your vantage point, you say, 452 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:37,920 Speaker 3: it's more important how long rates remain high. When does 453 00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:40,480 Speaker 3: it start to bite the most one of the maturity 454 00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:42,480 Speaker 3: walls the most painful, and you start to see the 455 00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:45,320 Speaker 3: interest rate sensitivity really come to the foe. 456 00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:48,720 Speaker 11: Yeah, so we've seen some early signs of that in 457 00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:51,359 Speaker 11: the default rate, but I would say at current levels 458 00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:54,399 Speaker 11: the default rate is still pretty well contained relative to 459 00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:57,440 Speaker 11: the history. There's probably some upside risk to that. I 460 00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:00,720 Speaker 11: think when the twenty twenty five maturity wall really become 461 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:04,960 Speaker 11: an issue is twelve months prior to those bond maturities, 462 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:07,360 Speaker 11: because for a host of reasons, we know that highield 463 00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:11,399 Speaker 11: corporates in particular don't like to let their maturities become 464 00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:15,000 Speaker 11: current on their balance sheet because has implications for the 465 00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:18,560 Speaker 11: year end audit and going concern language. And so even 466 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:21,160 Speaker 11: though twenty twenty five seems far off in the distance, 467 00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:23,760 Speaker 11: it's actually not that far off if you think that 468 00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:26,040 Speaker 11: corporates will start to address that in twenty twenty four. 469 00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:29,520 Speaker 11: One really interesting point, and I don't think that this 470 00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:35,159 Speaker 11: favorable technical will persist. The magnitude of high yield supply 471 00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:39,639 Speaker 11: and the purpose of highyield supply has been incredibly bondholder 472 00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:42,760 Speaker 11: friendly so far here today, it's kind of the best 473 00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:44,600 Speaker 11: of both worlds. We haven't had a lot of high 474 00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:47,000 Speaker 11: old supply, and the supply that we've had has been 475 00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:50,960 Speaker 11: used for bondholder friendly needs like refinancing and debt repayment. 476 00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:54,800 Speaker 11: As we get closer to those maturity walls, that volume 477 00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:58,240 Speaker 11: of supply likely picks up, and so that favorable technical 478 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:01,280 Speaker 11: has probably been an anchor for kyld spreads. Frankly, yere 479 00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:03,880 Speaker 11: today will probably ease up a bit and so that's 480 00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:06,120 Speaker 11: something certainly to watch as we get closer to those 481 00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:08,440 Speaker 11: maturity walls. But yes, Lisa, to your point, I mean 482 00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:11,919 Speaker 11: the length of time and the willingness, as you alluded 483 00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:14,320 Speaker 11: to earlier in the program, for the FED to really 484 00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:17,720 Speaker 11: stay the course and keep rates in restrictive territory or 485 00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:21,320 Speaker 11: even move them higher, is really the key consideration for 486 00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:22,439 Speaker 11: corporate credit quality. 487 00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:25,280 Speaker 1: Avanda. Thank you, Amanda. Aligning with us with black Rock 488 00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:31,280 Speaker 1: this morning, I'm going to talk China here at least 489 00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:34,159 Speaker 1: is all fired up to talk to China with Greg Valier, 490 00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:36,119 Speaker 1: and that's the lead part of his note this morning's 491 00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:39,960 Speaker 1: chief policy strategist at AGF Investments. 492 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:42,399 Speaker 2: But there's Eric Canter, Greg. 493 00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:46,480 Speaker 1: Valier, and you and I know he was absolutely flattened 494 00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:50,600 Speaker 1: in Republican politics of a good number of years ago. 495 00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:54,439 Speaker 1: Has a Republican Party changed it all since Eric Canner? 496 00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:56,600 Speaker 1: I mean to me, McCarthy's in the same place as 497 00:23:56,960 --> 00:23:59,880 Speaker 1: John Bayner, and there's an Eric Canter right now trying 498 00:23:59,880 --> 00:24:02,800 Speaker 1: to help McCarthy and he can't get anything done. 499 00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:06,479 Speaker 12: Yeah, I think the party has gotten more strident in 500 00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:09,600 Speaker 12: many respects in the House, which makes life, as we 501 00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:13,360 Speaker 12: all know, very difficult for McCarthy. I think the other 502 00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:16,960 Speaker 12: big story is China. And just a couple of comments quickly, 503 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:20,560 Speaker 12: Tom on that the little progress they made in the 504 00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:25,400 Speaker 12: last few days was negated overnight with Joe Biden inexplicably 505 00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:28,800 Speaker 12: ripping into z I don't know why he did it. 506 00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:32,720 Speaker 12: And number two, I think that these stories out on 507 00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:36,320 Speaker 12: a military base or a spy base or a training 508 00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:42,080 Speaker 12: base in Cuba by the Chinese really is a serious, 509 00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:43,240 Speaker 12: serious issue. 510 00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:46,399 Speaker 1: I agree because you and I lived in I have 511 00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:50,480 Speaker 1: the clearest memories of my youth and the Cuban missile crisis. 512 00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:51,800 Speaker 2: But I would suggest. 513 00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:55,240 Speaker 1: Greg, there's not missiles involved here. It's going to be 514 00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:58,399 Speaker 1: X number of soldiers one hundred miles from Key West. 515 00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:02,119 Speaker 1: I get that tension, but can you really equate it 516 00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:07,280 Speaker 1: to a Cuban missile crisis of John Fitzgerald Kennedy fair point. 517 00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:10,159 Speaker 12: It's not as serious as nineteen sixty two. But at 518 00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:13,120 Speaker 12: the same time, it's going to give fodder the politicians 519 00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:16,040 Speaker 12: who don't like China in both parties, whether it's Chuck 520 00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:21,200 Speaker 12: Schumer or Kevin McCarthy, and both parties, China is not popular, 521 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:24,840 Speaker 12: and I think this will simply add fuel to the fire. 522 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:28,119 Speaker 12: To speak out against the Chinese. 523 00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:31,200 Speaker 3: Greg You mentioned Joe Biden inexplicably in your words going 524 00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:33,720 Speaker 3: after Jijinping. I'll reach you the actual comments. He was 525 00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:37,159 Speaker 3: speaking at a fundraiser last night, saying that the Chinese 526 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:40,480 Speaker 3: leader had been blindsided by the spy balloon, saying he 527 00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:43,240 Speaker 3: didn't know it was there. That's what the great embarrassment 528 00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:46,960 Speaker 3: for dictators. Well, they don't know what happened, and that 529 00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:49,240 Speaker 3: was what really keyed off some of the concerns with 530 00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:52,679 Speaker 3: people calling that irresponsible and saying that really does heightened tensions. 531 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:56,840 Speaker 3: What do you make of the why behind President Biden's comments. 532 00:25:57,240 --> 00:25:59,480 Speaker 3: Was this some sort of diplomatic foray or was this 533 00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:02,400 Speaker 3: another folk pa that's going to be sort of highlighted 534 00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:05,320 Speaker 3: as kind of emblematic of his presidency. 535 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:08,359 Speaker 12: Well, first of all, Lisa, you've got to say, it 536 00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 12: looked to me anyway that the balloon story had been buried. 537 00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:14,800 Speaker 12: I think we put that behind us three or four 538 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:19,040 Speaker 12: days ago, and Biden resurrected it. So this could be 539 00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:22,640 Speaker 12: just part of a string of gas we've seen recently 540 00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:25,840 Speaker 12: by Biden. After one speech last week he said, God 541 00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:29,200 Speaker 12: Save the Queen. There's things that he says that leave 542 00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:32,240 Speaker 12: people scratching their heads, and it could be serious for 543 00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:35,520 Speaker 12: a second, it does plant seeds of doubt among a 544 00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:38,680 Speaker 12: lot of Democrats who are reluctant to vote for him. 545 00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:41,600 Speaker 3: Well, just putting aside the election for one second and 546 00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:43,960 Speaker 3: just doubling down the theme, do you actually think that 547 00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:47,639 Speaker 3: this could materially worsen relations with Tina? That the relationship 548 00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:51,000 Speaker 3: is already so fragile that a gaff by the President 549 00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:54,600 Speaker 3: just simply mentioning the word dictator could undermine everything that 550 00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:57,160 Speaker 3: Tony blinkn accomplished while he was overseas. 551 00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:01,360 Speaker 12: Well, it doesn't help, does it. It makes things more complicated. 552 00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:04,440 Speaker 12: And I'm sure you've just as you have angry lawyers 553 00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:07,560 Speaker 12: working for Donald Trump or shaking their head over Trump's 554 00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:10,719 Speaker 12: interview with Bret Baher, you see a lot of people, 555 00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:14,200 Speaker 12: I'm sure close to Blincoln shaking their heads over why 556 00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:17,320 Speaker 12: Biden would say something that to me reckless? 557 00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:19,840 Speaker 2: Greg, What do we follow into July? 558 00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:22,560 Speaker 1: I mean, I think for so much of our audience, 559 00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:25,960 Speaker 1: we're exhausted by this story, this story. We glance at 560 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:29,000 Speaker 1: the Post, glance at the Times, glance at Bloomberg, politics, etc. 561 00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:31,920 Speaker 1: But what's the thing to follow into July. 562 00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:36,320 Speaker 12: Well, we've got today, as you know, we've got jerown Powell. 563 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:39,640 Speaker 12: But I would say throughout the summer the number one 564 00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:43,480 Speaker 12: story is Ukraine. If this war doesn't go well and 565 00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:46,520 Speaker 12: they got off to a fairly slow start, I think 566 00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:49,320 Speaker 12: it'll lead to a lot of anxiety that the West 567 00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:52,280 Speaker 12: and the US may lighten up on our aid. We're 568 00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:54,520 Speaker 12: not at that point yet. I think that this is 569 00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:57,359 Speaker 12: still a winnable war, but I think there's got to 570 00:27:57,359 --> 00:27:59,560 Speaker 12: be signs of progress. So to me, that is the 571 00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:01,560 Speaker 12: story for the rest of the summer. 572 00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:03,879 Speaker 1: I want to take the military and it's effort in Ukraine, 573 00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:06,119 Speaker 1: swing it back to the Pacific ring Greg Value and 574 00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:08,520 Speaker 1: one of the clear things we see is an expansion 575 00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:12,080 Speaker 1: of the United States military across a Pacific rim. 576 00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:14,120 Speaker 2: It seems to me to endure. 577 00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:18,800 Speaker 1: It's not only a discussion, it's now being budgeted and planned. 578 00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:19,719 Speaker 2: Is that how you see it? 579 00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:21,000 Speaker 13: Yeah? 580 00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:23,520 Speaker 12: I think so. There's going to be controversy in the 581 00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:26,000 Speaker 12: House on how much we're going to spend on Ukraine 582 00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:29,240 Speaker 12: and the budget, and I would say the number two 583 00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:31,880 Speaker 12: issue for the next two or three months will be budget. 584 00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:34,160 Speaker 12: And I don't want to sound like the little boy 585 00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:36,880 Speaker 12: who cried Wilf. But I think chances of a government 586 00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:39,800 Speaker 12: shut down on October one are a little bit above 587 00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:42,640 Speaker 12: fifty to fifty, so that's going to be a big deal. 588 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:44,719 Speaker 12: I think at the end of the day, the defense 589 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:47,800 Speaker 12: industry and Ukraine get plenty of money from the US. 590 00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:48,720 Speaker 13: We know that. 591 00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:50,920 Speaker 3: Just to double down what you're talking about with respect 592 00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:52,960 Speaker 3: to Ukraine and that you think that's going to be 593 00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:56,200 Speaker 3: the key worry. Are you expecting to hear exactly what 594 00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:59,440 Speaker 3: the progress is how Ukraine is defending against a Russian 595 00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:02,760 Speaker 3: offensive that, by a number of reports is getting perhaps 596 00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:06,040 Speaker 3: a bit perhaps more savvy. How much are you looking 597 00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:09,760 Speaker 3: for intel from the Rebuild Ukraine conference currently ongoing. 598 00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:13,200 Speaker 12: Well, of course, as we all know, the first casualty 599 00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:17,680 Speaker 12: of war is the truth, so it's hard to discern 600 00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:20,120 Speaker 12: what is true and what isn't. I just think this 601 00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:22,440 Speaker 12: is going to be a long slog I think people 602 00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:27,080 Speaker 12: were unrealistic thinking that the Ukrainians were just romped during June. 603 00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:29,520 Speaker 12: Well they haven't, but we still have a long way 604 00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:30,360 Speaker 12: to go this summer. 605 00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:34,000 Speaker 1: Greigvillier, thank you so much, greatly appreciate it. With AGF investments. 606 00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:47,720 Speaker 1: There is a movie it is called North Side seven 607 00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:51,520 Speaker 1: seven seven. It is of a Chicago long ago. Jimmy 608 00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:55,280 Speaker 1: Stewart takes a lens and is fabulous in that movie 609 00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:59,520 Speaker 1: until halfway through you realize there's an old lady on 610 00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:03,040 Speaker 1: her knee. He's at the Wriggly Building taking the movie, 611 00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:05,960 Speaker 1: stealing the movie from Jimmy Stewart. And of course that 612 00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:11,080 Speaker 1: is the iconic grandmother and mother within called Northside seven seven. 613 00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:15,400 Speaker 1: This is an extraordinary book. I really don't know what 614 00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:18,680 Speaker 1: to say Jenny Rametti Romedy, as you know, it's the 615 00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:23,800 Speaker 1: most mispronounced name in corporately. Well, Jenny Romedy with us 616 00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:27,560 Speaker 1: this morning on a hugely courageous book. And I want 617 00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:31,760 Speaker 1: to start with the blistering first fifty pages of your childhood. 618 00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:33,760 Speaker 2: And Baba came to the rescue. 619 00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:37,880 Speaker 14: Who was Baba my great grandmother? And you're right, and 620 00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:40,560 Speaker 14: you speak of the Wriggly Building, because I was raised 621 00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:42,240 Speaker 14: by really strong women who. 622 00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:43,560 Speaker 6: All suffered great tragedies. 623 00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:47,080 Speaker 14: And that was my great grandmother who came here from Belarus, 624 00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:50,040 Speaker 14: the last person alive from her family, who worked third 625 00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:52,560 Speaker 14: shift in the Wriggly Building, cleaning bathrooms, never spoke a 626 00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 14: stitch of English English, and saved every diamond us savings 627 00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:58,960 Speaker 14: bonds and one day it would would allow us to 628 00:30:58,960 --> 00:30:59,440 Speaker 14: have a car. 629 00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:01,080 Speaker 2: What was the first day? 630 00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:05,840 Speaker 1: Like at Northwestern there were fancy people from New triermutants 631 00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:06,480 Speaker 1: from New. 632 00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:09,720 Speaker 6: Jas you know that. And there I was, Yes, there 633 00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:10,080 Speaker 6: I was. 634 00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:12,920 Speaker 14: No I I was there, by the grace of God right, 635 00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:16,520 Speaker 14: just lucky enough to get a scholarship. And what I 636 00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:18,520 Speaker 14: what I remember is having gone to the store and 637 00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:22,280 Speaker 14: bought one pair of Jeanes and topsiders. 638 00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:24,280 Speaker 6: To try to fit in a slide rule. I did 639 00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:25,080 Speaker 6: use a slide rule. 640 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:28,160 Speaker 1: You're dating this is like a nerd. Yes, go to 641 00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:30,800 Speaker 1: the woman from Chicago, wouldn't know a slide rule if 642 00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:31,760 Speaker 1: it hit over the world. 643 00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:34,720 Speaker 3: From a slide role to today, it's actually an appropriate 644 00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:37,920 Speaker 3: kind of pathway at a time. Win Tech is at 645 00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:40,440 Speaker 3: the epicenter of how to get from the slide rule 646 00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:44,640 Speaker 3: to the graphic calculator and beyond right, how much can 647 00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:47,080 Speaker 3: you see some of the lessons that you learned at 648 00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:50,160 Speaker 3: the helm of IBM of how to bring a company 649 00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:53,560 Speaker 3: up to speed with technology that moves more quickly than 650 00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:54,440 Speaker 3: anyone could imagine. 651 00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:56,720 Speaker 14: Yeah, this is it's timely because even though the book 652 00:31:56,760 --> 00:31:59,040 Speaker 14: took me two years to write, Good Power there's a 653 00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:02,080 Speaker 14: whole section in it on it A because a decade 654 00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:04,720 Speaker 14: ago I spent quite a bit of time trying to 655 00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:07,160 Speaker 14: bring AI into the world to solve really tough problems. 656 00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:10,240 Speaker 14: And here we are now, and to me, the things 657 00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:13,200 Speaker 14: I learned. Everybody wants to talk about the technology, this 658 00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:15,520 Speaker 14: is going to be a people and a trust problem. 659 00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:18,520 Speaker 6: That is what I learned from all these years. 660 00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:21,280 Speaker 14: And that you know, with something like AI, I see 661 00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:23,440 Speaker 14: it as two sides of one coin, and if we 662 00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:25,840 Speaker 14: don't manage the good and the bad at the same time, 663 00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:27,440 Speaker 14: we're going to have trouble. 664 00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:29,920 Speaker 3: When you look back on your legacy at IBM and 665 00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:32,479 Speaker 3: you think about some of the advancements that perhaps were 666 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:34,680 Speaker 3: shrugged off at the outset, whether it was cloud computing 667 00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:36,760 Speaker 3: or some of the others, what would you do differently, 668 00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:40,400 Speaker 3: or how do you understand what to identify as something 669 00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:44,400 Speaker 3: that holds promise versus the next you false hope that 670 00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:45,320 Speaker 3: everyone's going to cling to. 671 00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:48,760 Speaker 14: Yeah, look, I think this is difficult. It's difficult because 672 00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:51,280 Speaker 14: actually many of the bets we placed were correct. Some 673 00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:54,920 Speaker 14: timing was not exactly right on those. But today everything 674 00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:57,440 Speaker 14: we did around AI and now it's hybrid cloud is 675 00:32:57,480 --> 00:33:01,000 Speaker 14: what the company is really growing from. So the idea 676 00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:02,880 Speaker 14: when you run a company, and IBM's the oldest tech 677 00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:04,800 Speaker 14: company and clearly I had to lead it through its 678 00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:08,600 Speaker 14: most tumultuous reinvention, is that you've just got to make 679 00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:10,960 Speaker 14: those decisions for the long term, even if you may 680 00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:12,600 Speaker 14: not see them play out during your tenure. 681 00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:15,920 Speaker 1: For joining us on radio and television, good power. I 682 00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:18,680 Speaker 1: can't say enough about it. It's summer read thin. This 683 00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:22,440 Speaker 1: is great but very dense. Two hundred and thirty pages 684 00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:26,239 Speaker 1: here on a life story that's extraordinary and also the 685 00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:28,400 Speaker 1: realities of IBM. I'm going to address it. You've been 686 00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:32,200 Speaker 1: You've had critics like a Pinata here on the transformation 687 00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:34,600 Speaker 1: of I've been moved. I want to get to Gersner 688 00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:36,440 Speaker 1: in a minute. But the way you used to read 689 00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:38,680 Speaker 1: the statement from Sam Palmisano as you looked at the 690 00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:40,920 Speaker 1: free cash flow on page two of the on your 691 00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:42,680 Speaker 1: report and you said, IBM to the moon. 692 00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:46,120 Speaker 2: What happened? How did Palmisano get this so wrong? 693 00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:48,280 Speaker 14: Look, I mean what we had done, we had done 694 00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:50,959 Speaker 14: very well to a certain point. But then the world changed. 695 00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:51,880 Speaker 2: The world changed. 696 00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:53,920 Speaker 14: There was there was not just one tech trend, there 697 00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:57,160 Speaker 14: was cloud there was data, there was AI, mobility, social media, 698 00:33:57,600 --> 00:33:58,760 Speaker 14: and that's five tracks. 699 00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:02,880 Speaker 1: Now the meetings was it? Did you blame mackenzie? Did 700 00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:05,680 Speaker 1: you bring in consultants who screwed this up? Why did 701 00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:09,240 Speaker 1: you have such an inertial force where you couldn't change faster? 702 00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:11,640 Speaker 14: Yeah, I think Wich always had. When you're an incumbnent 703 00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:14,600 Speaker 14: in something, it is both you're trying to protect them 704 00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:15,719 Speaker 14: and not just protect a pass. 705 00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:17,000 Speaker 6: You've got customers that you've. 706 00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:18,520 Speaker 14: Got to serve, yet you've got to move to the 707 00:34:18,520 --> 00:34:21,440 Speaker 14: future at the same time. And so that realized how 708 00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:23,440 Speaker 14: every one of us had a challenge, and mine was 709 00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:27,160 Speaker 14: to now prepare a whole new technology portfolio for the future. 710 00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:30,000 Speaker 14: But I had a double sort of challenge in that 711 00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:32,839 Speaker 14: I also had to reskill the workforce, and so when 712 00:34:32,840 --> 00:34:36,040 Speaker 14: I began, folks weren't prepared for future skills. 713 00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:37,759 Speaker 1: It's de late in the book, You're phenomenal on this. 714 00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:39,720 Speaker 1: You go to Brian Moyne at a Bank of America, 715 00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:41,800 Speaker 1: who's an animal. I mean, I love you know, Brian, 716 00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:44,640 Speaker 1: you go, what's the FED gonna do? Belowning he's a 717 00:34:44,680 --> 00:34:48,040 Speaker 1: bank animal. He knows the deposit flows in Kansas City, 718 00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:51,239 Speaker 1: and he talks about hiring for skill. Yeah, does that 719 00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:52,600 Speaker 1: mean you only hire engineers? 720 00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:52,959 Speaker 6: Yeah. 721 00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:56,239 Speaker 14: Look, this is something that I work passionately on now, 722 00:34:56,280 --> 00:34:58,400 Speaker 14: this idea to hire for people for their skills, not 723 00:34:58,560 --> 00:35:01,319 Speaker 14: just their degrees. I I came to it having had 724 00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:03,479 Speaker 14: a mother. You know, I was abandoned as a kid 725 00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:06,880 Speaker 14: and my mother had no education. So but I quickly 726 00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:10,160 Speaker 14: saw access and aptitude were not equal, meaning she had 727 00:35:10,200 --> 00:35:12,040 Speaker 14: aptitude no access to education. 728 00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:14,400 Speaker 6: So she got a little bit of education and. 729 00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:16,200 Speaker 14: Can get an hourly job, a little more, a little 730 00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:18,520 Speaker 14: better job to get us off of things like food stamps. 731 00:35:18,920 --> 00:35:22,240 Speaker 14: Fast forward, I would be searching for people like cyber 732 00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:25,520 Speaker 14: They're not in the marketplace. In twenty twelve, we'd start 733 00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:29,040 Speaker 14: to work with community colleges and high schools, and I'd say, 734 00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:31,240 Speaker 14: why aren't we hiring these people? They can do the job. 735 00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:34,400 Speaker 14: Will one hundred percent of our requirements are college degrees, 736 00:35:34,840 --> 00:35:37,120 Speaker 14: and it would lead me down this path for really, now, 737 00:35:37,160 --> 00:35:40,320 Speaker 14: almost two decades of a movement, I think it's essential 738 00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:43,960 Speaker 14: to democracy in this country that we revisit. Having found 739 00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:47,319 Speaker 14: fifty percent of our jobs were over credentialed, requiring a 740 00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:50,000 Speaker 14: degree to start when you didn't need one to start. 741 00:35:50,040 --> 00:35:53,200 Speaker 14: This idea that where you start shouldn't determine where you end. 742 00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:54,840 Speaker 6: That skills first, you. 743 00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:57,120 Speaker 3: Join the show at a really important point, and you're 744 00:35:57,120 --> 00:35:59,239 Speaker 3: an important voice at a time where we talk so 745 00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:02,239 Speaker 3: much about and how much that's a divergent story from 746 00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:04,680 Speaker 3: the rest of the economy. Do you think that the 747 00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:07,799 Speaker 3: big tech names that have really become the behemoths are 748 00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:12,600 Speaker 3: doing a good job managing the technological trends, managing to 749 00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:16,040 Speaker 3: train people in the appropriate ways, and creating a path 750 00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:17,880 Speaker 3: for a longer type of trajectory. 751 00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:19,479 Speaker 6: Let me answer that two ways. 752 00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:21,319 Speaker 14: One is there's a whole chapter of what I call 753 00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:24,200 Speaker 14: stort in good tech, and it isn't just the tech companies. 754 00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:27,040 Speaker 14: It's now all of us and has much efforts got 755 00:36:27,120 --> 00:36:30,040 Speaker 14: to be put on preparing people to see a better 756 00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:31,520 Speaker 14: future because of this technology. 757 00:36:31,719 --> 00:36:33,560 Speaker 6: I mean, my biggest learning with trying. 758 00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:36,359 Speaker 14: To roll out AI, particular with professional people, they don't 759 00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:39,600 Speaker 14: trust it. They unless they're part of its co creation 760 00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:42,480 Speaker 14: and how it's used, won't use it. So as you 761 00:36:42,520 --> 00:36:45,520 Speaker 14: go forward, now this is about reskilling, not just your 762 00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:48,000 Speaker 14: current workers. You know it will be multiple times in 763 00:36:48,040 --> 00:36:50,960 Speaker 14: our lifetime once and done. Education is over now, and 764 00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:54,319 Speaker 14: so that idea that. I think that side of the 765 00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:57,920 Speaker 14: coin about preparing the workforce is totally not paid attention 766 00:36:57,960 --> 00:37:00,799 Speaker 14: to right now, and to me, that is the biggest thing. 767 00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:04,040 Speaker 14: And second is is really getting people to trust the technology. 768 00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:06,480 Speaker 14: You know, I had a lot of experience with a 769 00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:09,640 Speaker 14: big company with a big brand, and when you introduce AI, 770 00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:12,759 Speaker 14: there's very little tolerance for it to be wrong. When 771 00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:15,600 Speaker 14: you're a big company, a startup, no problem. But when 772 00:37:15,640 --> 00:37:18,520 Speaker 14: you start using it for health financial services, you're in 773 00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:21,000 Speaker 14: a whole different ballgame with how people react to it. 774 00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:23,840 Speaker 14: So that issue of trust and preparing people are what 775 00:37:23,920 --> 00:37:26,160 Speaker 14: I think is not being acted on enough. 776 00:37:26,280 --> 00:37:28,080 Speaker 1: I'm out of time, but I got to squeeze this in. 777 00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:30,840 Speaker 1: I got fourteen more questions. I got time for one question. 778 00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:35,960 Speaker 1: What was the best practice of lou gersnerh My? 779 00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:38,080 Speaker 14: You know I you know I have a men's respect 780 00:37:38,080 --> 00:37:39,640 Speaker 14: for low and to this day is a very good 781 00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:42,680 Speaker 14: friend of mine. I think he was a brilliant both 782 00:37:42,719 --> 00:37:46,000 Speaker 14: strategist and execution leader both sides of the coin. 783 00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:48,080 Speaker 2: He got his hands dirty issues. 784 00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:51,759 Speaker 6: Absolutely and to this day this is a gospel to me. Yes, absolutely, 785 00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:52,920 Speaker 6: You and I share. 786 00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:54,840 Speaker 1: Nothing on the show. Everybody puts it together for me, 787 00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:55,480 Speaker 1: I just show up. 788 00:37:55,600 --> 00:37:58,719 Speaker 14: No, No, we share that admiration. He is able to simplify 789 00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:00,279 Speaker 14: the complex and an amazing way. 790 00:38:00,719 --> 00:38:04,040 Speaker 1: This is a great book, Good Power, leading positive change 791 00:38:04,080 --> 00:38:08,160 Speaker 1: in our life's work in world.

Clay Holmes got the last 992 00:48:37,040 --> 00:48:39,120 Speaker 16: five outs. So much needed a Yankee win. Three to 993 00:48:39,160 --> 00:48:42,200 Speaker 16: one over Seattle. They beat the Mariners George Kirby, the 994 00:48:42,320 --> 00:48:44,520 Speaker 16: Ryan native who had shut them out in a recent 995 00:48:44,520 --> 00:48:47,279 Speaker 16: game in Seattle, Billy McKinney to the two run homer 996 00:48:47,360 --> 00:48:49,600 Speaker 16: off Kirby in the second inning.

Right now, we haven't 1001 00:48:58,600 --> 00:49:01,680 Speaker 26: been doing that, So it looks bad. It feels bad, 1002 00:49:01,760 --> 00:49:06,799 Speaker 26: It tastes bad, and no one likes losing, so so 1003 00:49:06,880 --> 00:49:10,760 Speaker 26: I understand why the fans are upset and not happy 1004 00:49:10,840 --> 00:49:11,960 Speaker 26: with how it's playing out. 1005 00:49:12,080 --> 00:49:13,920 Speaker 16: Cash but said he still has belief in rookie short 1006 00:49:13,960 --> 00:49:17,680 Speaker 16: staff Anthony Volfe, who's among many Yankees who have been struggling. 1007 00:49:17,320 --> 00:49:18,040 Speaker 8: Mets at Houston. 1008 00:49:18,120 --> 00:49:21,200 Speaker 16: Justin Verlanders faced his former team, and Alex Bregman hit 1009 00:49:21,200 --> 00:49:23,279 Speaker 16: a two run homer off him. The Astros won four 1010 00:49:23,320 --> 00:49:25,360 Speaker 16: to two. The Mets ten only four hits, didn't have 1011 00:49:25,400 --> 00:49:28,000 Speaker 16: a base runner off Franbur Valdez until the sixth inning. 1012 00:49:28,040 --> 00:49:31,600 Speaker 16: They didn't score until the eighth Freeway Series. Dodgers shut 1013 00:49:31,600 --> 00:49:34,360 Speaker 16: out the Angels to nothing behind Clayton Kershaw. The Cincinnati 1014 00:49:34,400 --> 00:49:37,080 Speaker 16: Reds last season lost one hundred games. They just won 1015 00:49:37,120 --> 00:49:39,640 Speaker 16: their tenth game in a row, and the Giants, a 1016 00:49:39,680 --> 00:49:42,239 Speaker 16: five hundred team last year, won their ninth straight. The 1017 00:49:42,280 --> 00:49:45,440 Speaker 16: ex met Marcus Stroman has the lowest DRA in the 1018 00:49:45,520 --> 00:49:47,560 Speaker 16: National League. He pitched the Cubs to a shutout win 1019 00:49:47,560 --> 00:49:50,920 Speaker 16: over Pittsburgh and the ex Yankee Aaron Hicks, who's still 1020 00:49:50,960 --> 00:49:53,000 Speaker 16: getting paid by the Yanks. They released him with a 1021 00:49:53,040 --> 00:49:55,000 Speaker 16: one eighty eight batting average. He had a homer four 1022 00:49:55,080 --> 00:49:58,440 Speaker 16: RBIs in Baltimore's win at Tampa Bay.

While a flurry of legal 1029 00:50:21,080 --> 00:50:24,319 Speaker 15: news came out of Washington yesterday morning. First we learned 1030 00:50:24,320 --> 00:50:26,719 Speaker 15: the trial date for former President Donald Trump in the 1031 00:50:26,719 --> 00:50:30,760 Speaker 15: classified documents case. A federal judge set that for mid August. 1032 00:50:31,080 --> 00:50:34,240 Speaker 15: It was also announced that the current President's son, Hunter Biden, 1033 00:50:34,480 --> 00:50:37,640 Speaker 15: is facing tax and gun charges and reached a plea 1034 00:50:37,719 --> 00:50:41,479 Speaker 15: deal in that case. Bloomberg's Joe Matthews spoke with former 1035 00:50:41,520 --> 00:50:44,400 Speaker 15: White House Chief of Staff mcmulvaaney on Bloomberg Sound On 1036 00:50:44,600 --> 00:50:47,439 Speaker 15: to break down the political fallout for the current and 1037 00:50:47,680 --> 00:50:50,200 Speaker 15: former presidents. Let's hear part of that conversation. 1038 00:50:51,000 --> 00:50:54,960 Speaker 19: Anything short of a felony indictment of Hunter Biden was 1039 00:50:54,960 --> 00:50:57,480 Speaker 19: going to be interprened by some folks as too. 1040 00:50:57,560 --> 00:50:57,759 Speaker 1: Tier. 1041 00:50:57,880 --> 00:51:00,160 Speaker 19: I think it remains to be seen as to what 1042 00:51:00,920 --> 00:51:04,560 Speaker 19: in what are the facts, what was the circumstance behind 1043 00:51:04,880 --> 00:51:08,880 Speaker 19: Hunter Biden's tax issues. Now that the Chairman Comber's made 1044 00:51:08,880 --> 00:51:10,799 Speaker 19: a really good point, which is now that we are 1045 00:51:10,840 --> 00:51:13,200 Speaker 19: either you know, at the end or moving speedily to 1046 00:51:13,239 --> 00:51:16,360 Speaker 19: the end of the investigation of Hunter Biden, then the 1047 00:51:16,440 --> 00:51:19,239 Speaker 19: Department of Justice no longer has an excuse not to 1048 00:51:19,280 --> 00:51:24,400 Speaker 19: share information with Congress. So as between both the public 1049 00:51:24,560 --> 00:51:28,719 Speaker 19: hearing on the plea deal and the congressional investigation, my 1050 00:51:28,840 --> 00:51:31,040 Speaker 19: guess is we'll see a lot more about Hunter Biden 1051 00:51:31,040 --> 00:51:33,200 Speaker 19: than we know right now, and only then will you 1052 00:51:33,280 --> 00:51:36,440 Speaker 19: be able to sort of have an informed opinion as 1053 00:51:36,520 --> 00:51:38,879 Speaker 19: to a two different tiers of justice in this com. 1054 00:51:39,200 --> 00:51:42,640 Speaker 15: Does this quiet the voices of concern who thought Hunter 1055 00:51:42,719 --> 00:51:45,200 Speaker 15: Biden was never going to be acknowledged here in Washington, 1056 00:51:45,239 --> 00:51:47,120 Speaker 15: that this would never actually become a case. 1057 00:51:47,719 --> 00:51:50,560 Speaker 19: Yeah, a little bit. In fact, I had some conversations 1058 00:51:51,000 --> 00:51:53,480 Speaker 19: with some of my friends, by Republican friends who are 1059 00:51:53,480 --> 00:51:56,959 Speaker 19: complaining about, well, they're charging trump but they're not charging Hunter. 1060 00:51:57,440 --> 00:51:59,160 Speaker 19: And then you know, say, well, okay, if they charge 1061 00:51:59,200 --> 00:52:04,240 Speaker 19: Hunter with them charging Trumpet very quiet, very quickly. So again, 1062 00:52:04,480 --> 00:52:06,520 Speaker 19: whether or not it's a serious charge, I guess we 1063 00:52:06,560 --> 00:52:08,640 Speaker 19: don't know yet until we see the facts in the file. 1064 00:52:09,000 --> 00:52:12,080 Speaker 15: Make the idea of an August fourteen trial date the 1065 00:52:12,200 --> 00:52:14,120 Speaker 15: all the while, and that might frankly be a bigger 1066 00:52:14,160 --> 00:52:17,480 Speaker 15: story that's been kind of overshadowed by the Hunter headline. 1067 00:52:17,520 --> 00:52:19,880 Speaker 15: Do you think a trial actually begins in August? 1068 00:52:20,400 --> 00:52:22,280 Speaker 19: And no, you're not supposed to make, you know, absolute 1069 00:52:22,320 --> 00:52:24,600 Speaker 19: tradictions when you're dealing with politics, and there's a lot 1070 00:52:24,600 --> 00:52:26,920 Speaker 19: of politics here. But I'd be willing to bet my 1071 00:52:26,960 --> 00:52:29,719 Speaker 19: house there's no trial in August fourteen. Keep in mind, 1072 00:52:29,760 --> 00:52:32,879 Speaker 19: the right to a speedy trial, which does exist under 1073 00:52:32,880 --> 00:52:37,040 Speaker 19: our constitution, is possessed by the accused not by the government. 1074 00:52:37,880 --> 00:52:39,800 Speaker 19: So you know, if Donald Trump wants to have slowed 1075 00:52:39,800 --> 00:52:42,120 Speaker 19: things down, there's going to be plenty of opportunities to do. So. 1076 00:52:42,160 --> 00:52:43,920 Speaker 19: You've made a good point about how hard it's going 1077 00:52:43,960 --> 00:52:46,759 Speaker 19: to be the picking jury. I disagree with your the 1078 00:52:46,800 --> 00:52:49,560 Speaker 19: reporter respectfully. I think it's going to be very, very 1079 00:52:49,560 --> 00:52:52,279 Speaker 19: difficult to pick a jury here because everybody's going to 1080 00:52:52,280 --> 00:52:54,120 Speaker 19: have an opinion about it, and Donald Trump is going 1081 00:52:54,160 --> 00:52:56,799 Speaker 19: to be looking for one juror who's willing to say, 1082 00:52:56,800 --> 00:52:58,279 Speaker 19: you know, I don't care what he did. I'm not 1083 00:52:58,360 --> 00:53:00,040 Speaker 19: convicting it because he only has to get it one 1084 00:53:00,080 --> 00:53:02,400 Speaker 19: person to hold out, and the government knows that. So 1085 00:53:02,480 --> 00:53:04,520 Speaker 19: that's going to take a long time. The government may 1086 00:53:04,520 --> 00:53:06,560 Speaker 19: try to recuse the judge. That may take a long time. 1087 00:53:06,600 --> 00:53:08,279 Speaker 19: It's going to be flights over evidence that may take 1088 00:53:08,280 --> 00:53:10,200 Speaker 19: a long time. So if I'm a betting man, and 1089 00:53:10,239 --> 00:53:13,840 Speaker 19: I am, I'm not betting among them, and. 1090 00:53:13,800 --> 00:53:17,240 Speaker 15: I am, says Mick mulvaney that said, does the trial 1091 00:53:17,280 --> 00:53:19,799 Speaker 15: begin before the presidential election? Or is that really what 1092 00:53:19,840 --> 00:53:22,760 Speaker 15: we're talking about here? Anything to delay it past the election. 1093 00:53:23,080 --> 00:53:24,560 Speaker 19: I talked to a lot of my friends who were 1094 00:53:24,560 --> 00:53:26,560 Speaker 19: in the federal prosecuting business. A lot of folks who 1095 00:53:26,640 --> 00:53:29,719 Speaker 19: used to do white collar criminal defense to a man 1096 00:53:29,800 --> 00:53:31,719 Speaker 19: and a woman, they all thought this trial would take 1097 00:53:31,719 --> 00:53:34,879 Speaker 19: place after the election. I think we're all surprised by 1098 00:53:34,920 --> 00:53:37,640 Speaker 19: this announcement, at least of this early date. And whether 1099 00:53:37,680 --> 00:53:39,319 Speaker 19: or not that changes the caucus, you know, I'd have 1100 00:53:39,320 --> 00:53:41,600 Speaker 19: to talk to folks who've done this for twenty thirty years. 1101 00:53:42,120 --> 00:53:44,120 Speaker 19: I'm not sure how Donald Trump delays it for a 1102 00:53:44,200 --> 00:53:46,600 Speaker 19: year and you know, four months or whatever. But I 1103 00:53:46,640 --> 00:53:48,239 Speaker 19: still think it's a better chance than not that it 1104 00:53:48,280 --> 00:53:50,440 Speaker 19: comes after the election. But again, this has thrown me 1105 00:53:50,440 --> 00:53:53,000 Speaker 19: a curveball along that everybody else see. It's August fourteenth day. 1106 00:53:53,160 --> 00:53:54,800 Speaker 15: I don't know if you saw Donald Trump and Brett 1107 00:53:54,800 --> 00:53:57,800 Speaker 15: Bayer on Fox News. There were some pretty remarkable moments, 1108 00:53:57,800 --> 00:54:00,520 Speaker 15: and it's been suggested that some of the could be 1109 00:54:00,640 --> 00:54:03,520 Speaker 15: entered as evidence in the trial, particularly as he discusses 1110 00:54:04,040 --> 00:54:06,600 Speaker 15: moving the boxes around and what was in the boxes. 1111 00:54:06,600 --> 00:54:08,080 Speaker 15: Here's the moment that you might have missed. 1112 00:54:08,120 --> 00:54:09,520 Speaker 2: So why not just hand them over then? 1113 00:54:09,760 --> 00:54:12,120 Speaker 13: Because I had a boxes, I want to go through 1114 00:54:12,120 --> 00:54:14,560 Speaker 13: the boxes and get all my personal things out. 1115 00:54:14,800 --> 00:54:16,600 Speaker 12: I don't want to hand that over to Narrow yet. 1116 00:54:16,840 --> 00:54:19,000 Speaker 15: And I was very busy, as you've sort of seen. 1117 00:54:19,080 --> 00:54:21,279 Speaker 19: Yeah, but according to the Diamonds, you then tell this 1118 00:54:21,360 --> 00:54:24,520 Speaker 19: aide to move to other locations after telling your lawyers 1119 00:54:24,560 --> 00:54:27,160 Speaker 19: to say you'd fully complied with the subpoena when you hadn't. 1120 00:54:27,320 --> 00:54:29,520 Speaker 12: But before I send boxes over, I have to take 1121 00:54:29,600 --> 00:54:30,239 Speaker 12: all of my things. 1122 00:54:30,239 --> 00:54:33,560 Speaker 15: Actually, the former president do damage to himself. 1123 00:54:33,880 --> 00:54:36,520 Speaker 19: Yes, I was watching it. I was actually texting a 1124 00:54:36,560 --> 00:54:39,120 Speaker 19: little bit with Berett Bair. You know, the interview wasn't live. 1125 00:54:39,320 --> 00:54:41,160 Speaker 19: All I could think of is now the public sort 1126 00:54:41,160 --> 00:54:43,120 Speaker 19: of gets a chance to see why so many of 1127 00:54:43,160 --> 00:54:46,080 Speaker 19: Donald trump lawyers quit because he made things much much 1128 00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:48,840 Speaker 19: worse for himself. There's one thing that it wasn't in 1129 00:54:48,880 --> 00:54:50,960 Speaker 19: the segment you just picked up, but it was right 1130 00:54:51,000 --> 00:54:53,200 Speaker 19: about the same time where he said.
