1
00:00:02,400 --> 00:00:15,680
Speaker 1: Bloomberg Audio Studios, Podcasts, radio news.

2
00:00:14,160 --> 00:00:17,360
Speaker 2: Single best idea on the slowest week of the year. Well,

3
00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:20,079
Speaker 2: maybe the last week of December's the slowest week of

4
00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:23,200
Speaker 2: the year, or maybe it's the last week of August. Whatever,

5
00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:26,759
Speaker 2: it's not this year. After the Powell speech, and it

6
00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:29,920
Speaker 2: was an extraordinary speech. I've gone back and reread it twice.

7
00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:32,400
Speaker 2: Thank you Claudia Simon. She said time shut up and

8
00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:35,040
Speaker 2: go back and read it twice. I did, and I

9
00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:38,360
Speaker 2: love the last paragraph. We featured that today on Lessons

10
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:43,720
Speaker 2: Learned the humility of this crazy economics, finance, investment and

11
00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:48,000
Speaker 2: international relations. We do. But it was an eventful Monday today,

12
00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:50,920
Speaker 2: no question about that. Thank you to Jumani Brasacchi of

13
00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:54,600
Speaker 2: Horizons out of Dubai. Look for that on Bloomberg Television

14
00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:58,720
Speaker 2: and on her Lebanon really talking with some emotion about

15
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:02,840
Speaker 2: the view south from Beirut towards Israel and of course

16
00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:06,520
Speaker 2: all that Israel's experiencing as well. Ethan Brown are from

17
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:10,880
Speaker 2: Tel Aviv helping us out this morning. And foreign exchange

18
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:13,440
Speaker 2: on the new week Dollar. It's always good to talk

19
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:17,120
Speaker 2: to Daryl Meyer. He's a the HSBC here and the

20
00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:18,480
Speaker 2: week Dollar it's weird.

21
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:21,160
Speaker 1: The market seems to want to dislike the dollar, right,

22
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:23,280
Speaker 1: and so for a period they said, well, the reason

23
00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:25,600
Speaker 1: to dislike the dollar is the US is setting to recession,

24
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:27,840
Speaker 1: and they said, well, actually no, it's not. Now the

25
00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:30,000
Speaker 1: reason to dislike the dollar is because US setting for

26
00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:33,440
Speaker 1: assault landing, and it feels like it's gotten beaten up

27
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:35,320
Speaker 1: the last couple of months. You know, I think it's

28
00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:37,480
Speaker 1: ready for a bounce. I think it's ready for consolidation.

29
00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:41,559
Speaker 1: You know, we've constructed a narrative that fitted the price action,

30
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:44,520
Speaker 1: but really, is the US economy in such bad shape?

31
00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:47,200
Speaker 1: I'm not convinced. And then I always come back to

32
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:49,280
Speaker 1: the question is like, I'm going to joke to you,

33
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 1: why will I like you in Ireland? But why do

34
00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:53,280
Speaker 1: people like the euro? And you kind of go, well,

35
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:55,440
Speaker 1: it's not the dollar, but I think that only gets

36
00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:57,600
Speaker 1: you so far right, And if you actually go why

37
00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:00,080
Speaker 1: why do I like the Euro? It feels like a

38
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:02,640
Speaker 1: pretty short conversation. So I think that's also part of

39
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:04,520
Speaker 1: the Russian off. Why you can get back to one

40
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:05,640
Speaker 1: of five and you're a dollar.

41
00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:07,840
Speaker 2: Deren Mara, there, I agreed with Jeff for you of

42
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:10,760
Speaker 2: Bny melon there on that target of euro weaker euro

43
00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:14,640
Speaker 2: stronger dollar migrating from one to eleven, one twelve to

44
00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:17,640
Speaker 2: a weaker euro. One oh five is where those two

45
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:21,359
Speaker 2: are looking and of course always open to at debate.

46
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:23,639
Speaker 2: That's what makes the market go. I would note d

47
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 2: x Y the Blended Large Country Index. A traditional index

48
00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:33,919
Speaker 2: goes one oh five, four, three, two one. A break

49
00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:36,600
Speaker 2: below one hundred would be a huge deal. I don't

50
00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:41,120
Speaker 2: have the BBDXY the Bloomberg Dollar Index in front of me,

51
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:46,640
Speaker 2: but it's a much better series, including em including China.

52
00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 2: It's a much richer set of data. Look for the

53
00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:53,680
Speaker 2: Bloomberg dx Y bbdx Y in the terminal. It's out

54
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:59,399
Speaker 2: there publicly as well as a very important series. Every

55
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:01,320
Speaker 2: once in a while, how someone walks in the door

56
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:05,040
Speaker 2: with incredible accomplishments in a topic that we all feel

57
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 2: so certain about. Brad Case out of the yel combine

58
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:13,440
Speaker 2: of Schiller, GutsMan and others economists chief economist Fanny May

59
00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:17,440
Speaker 2: for years. He's now working for some people Middleburg communities,

60
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:21,720
Speaker 2: trying to do rental real estate in a more constructive way.

61
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:25,840
Speaker 2: We talked about that, but he was devastating, and I

62
00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:29,200
Speaker 2: think one of the great canards that's out there, that

63
00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 2: real estate is a way better investment than a blended

64
00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:38,720
Speaker 2: stock market average. This is maybe the important, most important

65
00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 2: conversation of the week, and it's only Monday. Brad Case

66
00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:45,440
Speaker 2: on stocks or real estate.

67
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 3: It turns out that what's most important is that when

68
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,480
Speaker 3: you buy a house, you have to put a gigantic

69
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 3: amount of money into an asset that appreciation is very low.

70
00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:58,600
Speaker 3: If you instate, you rent a place, whether it's a

71
00:03:58,640 --> 00:03:59,200
Speaker 3: house or an.

72
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:00,840
Speaker 2: Apartment, you can go invest somewhere else.

73
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:02,640
Speaker 3: You put that money into the stock market, and that

74
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,520
Speaker 3: is a much better investment. That the total returns on

75
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,400
Speaker 3: real estate are much much lower than in the stock market.

76
00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:11,680
Speaker 3: And I've actually done this analysis with data going back

77
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:15,160
Speaker 3: to the early nineteen seventies. Most of the time people

78
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:18,080
Speaker 3: are better off renting than owning in terms of building wealth.

79
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:20,919
Speaker 2: I can't say enough the importance of that. I also

80
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:26,159
Speaker 2: can't say enough how so many people disagree violently with

81
00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:30,960
Speaker 2: brad Case over that people forget about the leverage taken

82
00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:35,159
Speaker 2: within a mortgage structure of housing and the risks at intel.

83
00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:39,720
Speaker 2: Many of the people have not enjoyed real or nominal

84
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:43,880
Speaker 2: house price decreases and a lot of people, and particularly

85
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:47,799
Speaker 2: the marketing of real estate that I see both institutionally

86
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:51,880
Speaker 2: in retail. It forgets the fees along the way, the

87
00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:54,560
Speaker 2: costs along the way. The tex is we need a

88
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:57,760
Speaker 2: maroon carpet in the family room and the rest of it.

89
00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:00,920
Speaker 2: What should we do with the lawn deer? Maybe you're

90
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:04,000
Speaker 2: ranking that conversation up over the Labor day weekend to

91
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:07,400
Speaker 2: try and improve the man's bradcase of Middleburg. They're just

92
00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:13,279
Speaker 2: absolutely brilliant. Couple of program notes, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto.

Speaker 2: They're out with new software soon. I don't know when
