These latest nominations come 213 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,400 Speaker 2: after the latest threat of tariffs from the President elect 214 00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 2: on China, Canada, and Mexico.

But 217 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 6: if we get close to a place where we're talking 218 00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:31,080 Speaker 6: about across the board to tariff's, I think that would 219 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,800 Speaker 6: be a week up four call for risk assets, for 220 00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:36,000 Speaker 6: equities and credit alike. 221 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 2: That's why Lee at Blackrock joining us now.

Terry, good morning. 223 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 2: Is the President elect giving investors more policy clarity with 224 00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:48,680 Speaker 2: his latest picks? 225 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:53,000 Speaker 15: Good morning, Nathan, And yeah, I think he is. You 226 00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:57,720 Speaker 15: have Hasset and nec is, among other things, a familiar 227 00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:01,839 Speaker 15: face and somebody who's not only a Trump loyalist, but 228 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:06,120 Speaker 15: somebody that's been around the block with markets for a while. 229 00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:12,120 Speaker 15: Greer is of course very much in the mold of Lightthheiser, 230 00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:15,839 Speaker 15: who was USTR in the first administration. So I think 231 00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:19,079 Speaker 15: the signal market should should take away from this is 232 00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:24,760 Speaker 15: seriousness and pretty much what they expected. There will continue 233 00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:27,319 Speaker 15: to be, you know, the three questions that surround the 234 00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 15: Trump administration on economic policy. You know, you're starting to 235 00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:36,800 Speaker 15: get the tariff's question answered unsurprisingly, and second second question, 236 00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:40,559 Speaker 15: the third question about tax and fiscal remain unanswered. 237 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:44,760 Speaker 2: So where does the priority lie? We did hear from 238 00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:49,280 Speaker 2: Presidental like Trump talking about tariffs yesterday with Jamison Greer 239 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:52,640 Speaker 2: coming in as us t R is a sixty percent 240 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 2: tariff on China that he talked about on the campaign 241 00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:56,720 Speaker 2: trail still on the table. 242 00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:00,760 Speaker 15: I imagine it's on the table. Sure, I don't think I 243 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:05,000 Speaker 15: would look for that immediately. You know the You know, 244 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:09,280 Speaker 15: markets tend to whipsaw back and forth. Is Trump serious? 245 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:13,640 Speaker 15: Will best and talk sense into him? And the answer 246 00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 15: to you know, the either or there is yes. The 247 00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:19,640 Speaker 15: answer is both. Markets should not think this is all 248 00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:23,040 Speaker 15: one thing or all the other thing. What I do think, though, 249 00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:26,840 Speaker 15: is that you have a situation where the president is 250 00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 15: clearly intends to want to use tariff threats to manage 251 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:35,720 Speaker 15: the border for among other things, and get international cooperation. 252 00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:38,360 Speaker 15: And at the same time, I think what you should 253 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:42,640 Speaker 15: look for, and I think bestiness selection confirms this is 254 00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:45,280 Speaker 15: you should look for a more gradualist approach on the 255 00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 15: kind of heavy tariffs that you mentioned, in no small 256 00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:52,240 Speaker 15: part because it's got to fit into an overall economic vision. 257 00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:55,439 Speaker 15: I think the mistake markets make is that they look 258 00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:58,760 Speaker 15: at tariffs very much in a silo in a vacuum, 259 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 15: without looking at what the rest of the economic policy 260 00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:06,120 Speaker 15: might be. To my mind, Trump is somebody that wanted 261 00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:09,600 Speaker 15: to fix and improve the economy. He doesn't do that 262 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:13,800 Speaker 15: by pursuing a maximalist tariff policy right at the beginning. 263 00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:16,600 Speaker 2: And what influence does Kevin Hassett have on that broader 264 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:22,200 Speaker 2: economic vision, particularly with the championing of tax cuts that 265 00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 2: we saw from Kevin Hassett in his previous role at 266 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:26,240 Speaker 2: the Council of Economic Advisors. 267 00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:29,280 Speaker 15: Well, I think it's a I think it's a veteran. 268 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:32,000 Speaker 15: You know, you when you pick a veteran, you know, 269 00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:36,880 Speaker 15: for Trump, it is a sign of a sign of 270 00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 15: respect and a sign of continuity. So you know you've 271 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:44,400 Speaker 15: got that. Secondly, because you've got a veteran who Trump 272 00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:48,600 Speaker 15: apparently trusts, you know, otherwise they wouldn't be brought back, 273 00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:52,440 Speaker 15: you know, see Mike Pompeo for example. Then what you 274 00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:55,800 Speaker 15: have is a situation where hast not only has an 275 00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:59,440 Speaker 15: independent voice at the National Economic Council, but that he 276 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:03,760 Speaker 15: you can serve as a moderating voice between Bessett and Lutnik, 277 00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:06,560 Speaker 15: who might well have we don't know this yet, who 278 00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:10,320 Speaker 15: might well have different visions about how to proceed. And 279 00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:15,280 Speaker 15: there's at least reported some personal antipathy between those two people. 280 00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:18,080 Speaker 15: So Hassett very much serves as a fulcrum on the 281 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:20,960 Speaker 15: policy and does so. Sitting in the White House just. 282 00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:23,320 Speaker 2: Thirty seconds left, Terry, is there still room for Robert 283 00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:25,120 Speaker 2: Leiitheiser in this economic team? 284 00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:31,720 Speaker 15: I tend to look at Greer as the Lightheiser pick, 285 00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:35,080 Speaker 15: So you know, I think, you know, I would never 286 00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:39,240 Speaker 15: count Whiteheiser out on this clearly as the President's trust. 287 00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:42,480 Speaker 15: But I look at Greer at USTR anyway as very 288 00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:46,360 Speaker 15: much somebody that is kind of kind of the next 289 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:47,600 Speaker 15: generation Lightheiser. 290 00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:50,680 Speaker 2: This is Bloomberg day Break, your morning podcast on the 291 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:54,160 Speaker 2: stories making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. 292 00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 11: Look for us on. 293 00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:59,040 Speaker 3: Your podcast feed by six am Eastern each morning, on Apple, Spotify, 294 00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:00,520 Speaker 3: or anywhere else listen. 295 00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:03,200 Speaker 2: You can also listen live each morning starting at five 296 00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:06,160 Speaker 2: am Wall Street time on Bloomberg eleven three to zero 297 00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:08,920 Speaker 2: in New York, Bloomberg ninety nine to one in Washington, 298 00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 2: Bloomberg ninety two nine in Boston, and nationwide.
