The 11 00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:32,800 Speaker 3: economy really hasn't slowed down enough to make the FIT 12 00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:34,720 Speaker 3: confident that they're going to see that slack of all 13 00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:36,240 Speaker 3: air work that they want. 14 00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:40,639 Speaker 2: Fed officials will take into account upcoming readings on producer prices, 15 00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:46,040 Speaker 2: inflation expectations, and also retail sales before their next policy decision. 16 00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:48,879 Speaker 2: The FED does meet next on July twenty fifth and 17 00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:49,800 Speaker 2: twenty sixth. 18 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:52,280 Speaker 4: Well, speaking today, if you look at the FED speak 19 00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:55,560 Speaker 4: it appears that a number of officials are poised to 20 00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:58,120 Speaker 4: resume those rate hikes. We heard today from the head 21 00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:00,720 Speaker 4: of the Richmond FED. He's Tom Barkin.

The Chinese government 80 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:18,159 Speaker 6: recently urged banks to extend loan relief to developers, and 81 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:21,839 Speaker 6: President Chi ching Ping called for more foreign cooperation in 82 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:25,080 Speaker 6: areas including trade and investment in Hong Kong and Joanne 83 00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:26,480 Speaker 6: Wong Bloomberg Day Brick Asia. 84 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 2: I'm Brian Curtis along with Doug Christner and Doug In 85 00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:33,039 Speaker 2: addition to the premiers meeting, you also had the NDRC 86 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:37,240 Speaker 2: praising tech companies yesterday, which is pretty unusual for that 87 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:42,480 Speaker 2: sort of entity. It praised ten Cent, May Twan, Ali Baba, 88 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 2: and it shows that the policymakers now are looking at 89 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:49,480 Speaker 2: other ways of stimulating the economy outside of just monetary 90 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:50,479 Speaker 2: and fiscal support. 91 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:53,680 Speaker 4: And look at the Nasdaq Golden Dragon China Index in 92 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:57,160 Speaker 4: the US today, Brian jumping four percent and a call 93 00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 4: from Goldman Sachs the firm strategists see China stocks as 94 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:05,800 Speaker 4: investible right now. We've talked on this program about obvious 95 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:09,680 Speaker 4: political risk, whether it's geopolitical or regulatory, along with the 96 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:12,720 Speaker 4: loss of economic momentum in China. Now many in the 97 00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 4: market have asked this question we have on this program 98 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:19,919 Speaker 4: as well. Are Chinese stocks investible well? The answer, according 99 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 4: to Goldman right now is a clear yes, given the 100 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 4: fact that these risks essentially been priced in now. Goldman 101 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 4: seemed to plug in a few assumptions here over the 102 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 4: next twelve months. One is that the economy will grow 103 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:33,640 Speaker 4: in real terms in terms of GDP at a rate 104 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:37,719 Speaker 4: of around four point seven percent, and geopolitical tensions will 105 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:41,560 Speaker 4: kind of assume a three year average, so no real surprises. 106 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:45,279 Speaker 2: There are really a lot of doubters though these stocks 107 00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 2: are down so much. We've often mentioned that companies like 108 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:52,080 Speaker 2: ten Cent in Ali Baba, they are really not quite 109 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:54,200 Speaker 2: the same companies they used to be, and ali Baba 110 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:56,520 Speaker 2: for instance, still down even after the rallies of late, 111 00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:01,000 Speaker 2: still down about seventy percent, So you'll know that's what 112 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:02,960 Speaker 2: makes a market. There will be people who will say 113 00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:05,520 Speaker 2: it's worth the risk. Others will say, we know what 114 00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:08,240 Speaker 2: the policymakers are like, and we know that they don't 115 00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:14,240 Speaker 2: support these types of Internet giants, the monsters like may 116 00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:17,599 Speaker 2: Twan like ten Cent and Ali Baba, so it'll be 117 00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 2: interesting to watch that one. I wanted to make a 118 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 2: quick line here or comment on the inflation numbers, because 119 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 2: obviously we're leading off with that I like the line 120 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:29,120 Speaker 2: in one of our stories, too early to pop the champagne, 121 00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:32,799 Speaker 2: but start chilling the bottle. The only thing is particularly 122 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,760 Speaker 2: with us on this program talking to investors, is we 123 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:37,799 Speaker 2: need to probe the bouncers to see if the guests 124 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:41,680 Speaker 2: have already vibed too much. The Nastak one hundred to 125 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:44,159 Speaker 2: that point, the Nasdaq one hundred, with the gains today 126 00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:46,720 Speaker 2: now up forty percent here to date. 127 00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 4: I don't think you can argue with this move that 128 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:50,720 Speaker 4: we had across the Treasury curve today at the short 129 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 4: end of twelve basis points to the downside at four 130 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 4: seventy four at the long end word three eighty five 131 00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:59,719 Speaker 4: right now, so the market's convinced that the FED is 132 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:02,880 Speaker 4: nearly going to wrap up this project of tightening. 133 00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:06,400 Speaker 2: It depends I guess what happens with Core CPI four 134 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:09,680 Speaker 2: point eight percent is down definitely from where we were 135 00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 2: a year ago, but it's not down that much and 136 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 2: it's not down as much as the FED wants. So 137 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:18,360 Speaker 2: although that three percent handle sounds great for headline CPI, 138 00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:21,200 Speaker 2: the four point eight percent on a year to date 139 00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 2: number four Core is simply not good enough. Lots to 140 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:27,640 Speaker 2: talk to our guests about and coming up as the 141 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:29,800 Speaker 2: first guest on the program this morning.

NATO is stronger, more energized, and yes, more 178 00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:40,680 Speaker 7: united than ever in its history. Meanwhile, the White House 179 00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:43,320 Speaker 7: has issued a statement condemning North Korea's test of a 180 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 7: long range ballistic missile, calling it a brazen violation of 181 00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:52,040 Speaker 7: multiple US Security Council a UN Security Council resolutions. Meanwhile, 182 00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:56,439 Speaker 7: North Korea calls a test a warning of shocking consequences 183 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 7: for spy planes flying near North Korea airspace. The ice 184 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:04,560 Speaker 7: dBm are the most powerful in its arsenal. FBI director 185 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:07,280 Speaker 7: Christopher Ray has told the congressional hearing today that it 186 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:10,360 Speaker 7: will comply with a federal judges order banning it from 187 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:15,280 Speaker 7: communicating with social media companies about misinformation, although Ray says 188 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 7: it may impact effectiveness of catching foreign adversaries. 189 00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:22,679 Speaker 12: The thousands of active investigations we now have into the 190 00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:27,679 Speaker 12: Chinese government's efforts to steal our most precious secrets, rob 191 00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:32,559 Speaker 12: our businesses of their ideas and innovation, and repress freedom 192 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 12: of speech right here in the United States. 193 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 7: And the US as hackers have breached a series of 194 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:40,000 Speaker 7: email accounts linked to government agencies in the US and 195 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 7: Western Europe. The government Microsoft described the attackers as being 196 00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:47,320 Speaker 7: based in China. Global News powered by more than twenty 197 00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:50,560 Speaker 7: seven hundred journalists and analysts in over one hundred twenty countries. 198 00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:54,160 Speaker 7: In San Francisco, I'm Ed Baxter. This is Bloomberg. 199 00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:56,439 Speaker 4: Let's take a look now at what's going on these 200 00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:59,000 Speaker 4: days in market action with our guest Ben Emmons. He 201 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 4: joins us in the Bloomberg Interactive Broker studio in New York. 202 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:06,319 Speaker 4: Ben is senior portfolio manager at New Edge Wealth. Thanks 203 00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:08,960 Speaker 4: for being with us. Let's begin by looking at the 204 00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:11,960 Speaker 4: inflation story here in the US. People were really celebrating 205 00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:14,840 Speaker 4: this reading on the CPI, both on the headline and 206 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:17,960 Speaker 4: the core rate coming in a little bit below estimates. 207 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:20,080 Speaker 4: Do you think it's enough to say that the Fed 208 00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:23,000 Speaker 4: is has succeeded, that it's won the fight, and okay, 209 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:26,040 Speaker 4: we get another twenty five basis points this month, but 210 00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 4: we're kind of going to be on pause indefinitely. 211 00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:32,439 Speaker 11: I don't think it definitely dug, but it is definitely 212 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:33,520 Speaker 11: moving in the right direction. 213 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:35,199 Speaker 9: And then so if you look at that month to 214 00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:36,760 Speaker 9: month change in. 215 00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:40,360 Speaker 11: The core services X housing number, that's particularly what you 216 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:42,280 Speaker 11: want to look at because that's what the FED is 217 00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:45,600 Speaker 11: most worried about. That month of month was about point 218 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:48,840 Speaker 11: two five percent, I believe, a lot lower than what 219 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:51,800 Speaker 11: people had thought. And it's coming off about point five 220 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 11: early in this year. So it's in a nice to 221 00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:56,680 Speaker 11: send down. And I think if we continue to see 222 00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:59,839 Speaker 11: lower prints though in that particular item, which is really 223 00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:02,640 Speaker 11: where the heat of the economy currenty is right, it's 224 00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:07,000 Speaker 11: all in services and other related sort of ancillary services. 225 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 11: Then we'll read and tracked to see the inflation getting 226 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:13,559 Speaker 11: from core infation back from four and change to readly 227 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:16,959 Speaker 11: towards the fat's target. So it's good progress. The FAED 228 00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:19,520 Speaker 11: is basically being vindicated of what they did was the 229 00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:22,200 Speaker 11: right thing. And I think the bomb market is given 230 00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:24,520 Speaker 11: and fed a lot of credibility today by saying yes, 231 00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:26,880 Speaker 11: rags can now can go down in the future. 232 00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:28,439 Speaker 9: That's why I saw the movie yields. 233 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,320 Speaker 11: On the other hand, they're not exactly done, and you know, 234 00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:34,400 Speaker 11: both Barking and Cascarry were quite clear about it. I 235 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:37,520 Speaker 11: called it like they want to manage the expectations to 236 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:39,199 Speaker 11: the finish line. They want to make sure that these 237 00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:42,439 Speaker 11: expectations are not going to suddenly become and get a 238 00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:45,400 Speaker 11: bit higher, right, And that's been the seventies problem, and 239 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:49,240 Speaker 11: when they ease too quickly and inflation expectations started to 240 00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:49,959 Speaker 11: break up again. 241 00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:54,199 Speaker 2: So you know, there are more hawkish investors and also 242 00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:57,800 Speaker 2: even economists like our own analog who think that inflation 243 00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:00,720 Speaker 2: will tick back up on a technical base. Is because 244 00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:03,120 Speaker 2: of the big numbers that we saw a year ago. 245 00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:05,840 Speaker 2: Those will drop out and then you'll have on a 246 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:10,320 Speaker 2: comparison basis a tick up and in any case, like 247 00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:13,079 Speaker 2: you said it, maybe that the FED wants to go 248 00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:15,160 Speaker 2: it wants to air on the side of too far. 249 00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:19,520 Speaker 2: So it's not really the all clear just yet, is 250 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:19,920 Speaker 2: that right? 251 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:21,120 Speaker 9: No, that's right, Brian. 252 00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 11: I think that this tick up and inflation, that's it 253 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:28,240 Speaker 11: is technical, but it's certainly something about perception of inflation 254 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 11: and right how people look at inflation and if it 255 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:34,280 Speaker 11: continues to be something that's elevated and higher, you know, 256 00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:35,480 Speaker 11: that's the that's worry. 257 00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:38,679 Speaker 9: Like, if you don't lean more against that, then. 258 00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:42,760 Speaker 11: People have expectations that are basically and this is this 259 00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:45,160 Speaker 11: conference board number coming out in the next week and 260 00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:47,160 Speaker 11: a half is a really good sign of that that 261 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:50,440 Speaker 11: that one year expectation is at over six percent. But 262 00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:53,720 Speaker 11: people still expecting really high inflation from here. You know, 263 00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:56,520 Speaker 11: as long as you don't manage that down further, you 264 00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:58,760 Speaker 11: will end up again in the future potential but again 265 00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:02,360 Speaker 11: higher inflation. So this is the Fat's not a conundrum. 266 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:04,200 Speaker 11: It's not a dilemma. It's it's more like, this is 267 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 11: the risk that they're running. Therefore they stay the course 268 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:09,720 Speaker 11: on this and this message of we need to bring 269 00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 11: inflation really down to two percent, we can't be satisfied 270 00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:13,079 Speaker 11: at three percent. 271 00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:14,480 Speaker 4: So with the meeting at the end of the month, 272 00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:16,520 Speaker 4: is there a risk for Powell, for the FED chairman 273 00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:19,160 Speaker 4: that he sounds a little too dubbish he wants to 274 00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 4: kind of adopt a more kind of a hawkish stance 275 00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:23,720 Speaker 4: just to keep the market on the back foot. 276 00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:24,320 Speaker 1: Yeah. 277 00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:28,000 Speaker 11: Probably, I think he will probably give that hockeyish tone. 278 00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:31,200 Speaker 11: I would think in a way he did recently too 279 00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:36,400 Speaker 11: in that testimony front of Congress, right and in the 280 00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:39,320 Speaker 11: following on the minutes, there's that similar tone in there. 281 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 11: So I think that he's wary of that. You know, 282 00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:44,040 Speaker 11: within the fet there's a group of people that are 283 00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:45,960 Speaker 11: really hawkish. You could tell that from the top loot. 284 00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:47,960 Speaker 11: There are people saying, no, we have to get the 285 00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:50,640 Speaker 11: six percent rate, that's much more of a better rate 286 00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:53,320 Speaker 11: to get inflation down. But he's more in the camp 287 00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:55,240 Speaker 11: of saying, we cannot really be of those who are 288 00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 11: below where the median is because you know that that 289 00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:01,040 Speaker 11: would not be sufficient. Right, So keep that hockey still 290 00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:01,600 Speaker 11: for sure. 291 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:04,520 Speaker 2: And in terms of the markets, because most of our 292 00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:07,120 Speaker 2: discussion has really been what the economy is doing with 293 00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:09,800 Speaker 2: the levels of inflation. But what about in terms of 294 00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:11,720 Speaker 2: the markets. I mentioned that, you know, we have to 295 00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:14,040 Speaker 2: see whether or not people have already you know, drank 296 00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:16,920 Speaker 2: from the till a bit too much. Markets have rallied 297 00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:19,080 Speaker 2: pretty sharply in the first half of the year. 298 00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:21,320 Speaker 9: Yeah, that's right, Brian. 299 00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:24,880 Speaker 11: There is a lot of anticipation, right, essentially build upon 300 00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:27,320 Speaker 11: what we saw today. You know, we got the confirmation 301 00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:30,440 Speaker 11: that we're we're in the live path down on inflation 302 00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 11: for now, right, and and so yes, you could say 303 00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:37,960 Speaker 11: that at some point there's a fair bit of that overpriced, right, 304 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:40,120 Speaker 11: it's just too far maybe pricing, and that's where the 305 00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:42,840 Speaker 11: correction will be. I say, take note of what's happening 306 00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,040 Speaker 11: with the dollar and the movement in the end. I 307 00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:47,040 Speaker 11: find that in the striking, you know, the Bank of 308 00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:49,640 Speaker 11: Japan will be at some point making a decision too. 309 00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 11: Is that some of that anticipation everybody said like, once 310 00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:55,280 Speaker 11: the end gets really stronger, that will be the next 311 00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:58,080 Speaker 11: central bank that could start affecting markets, And that's I 312 00:15:58,080 --> 00:15:58,800 Speaker 11: think to be worse. 313 00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:00,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, we've had a couple of big days. I mean, 314 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 4: in terms of yen strength versus the dollar, we're sub 315 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:07,600 Speaker 4: one thirty nine right now, and I'm wondering would you 316 00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:10,200 Speaker 4: be betting on some type of modification to the messaging 317 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:13,120 Speaker 4: from the BOJ when they meet next just preparing the 318 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:16,080 Speaker 4: markets for change and yield curve control. 319 00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:18,840 Speaker 11: Possibly because it's been going on now for some time. 320 00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:22,960 Speaker 11: The bottom line messages like we keep easying because of 321 00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:26,200 Speaker 11: you know, we still haven't reached our core rate for 322 00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:29,760 Speaker 11: two percent was what he said at in CenTra Ueita. 323 00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:33,400 Speaker 11: But within those minutes and those those policy discussions have 324 00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:35,920 Speaker 11: been coming out, there's been you know a little hints 325 00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:38,560 Speaker 11: here and there that they're willing to make it a 326 00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:42,360 Speaker 11: step in that policy and basically relax that why that 327 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 11: yukere of control actually you waded to an extent that 328 00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:48,280 Speaker 11: is too in CenTra. So I think they're getting much 329 00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:51,160 Speaker 11: closer to that decision, and that is a big deal 330 00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:54,040 Speaker 11: to markets, I think, because that is in a way 331 00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:56,800 Speaker 11: the last central bank that really is following the s 332 00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 11: and because the end has been so we and people 333 00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:03,400 Speaker 11: borrowing yen, so it's actually being a sort of a 334 00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:06,480 Speaker 11: vehicle for risk taking. You know that that unminded that 335 00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:09,480 Speaker 11: yen carry idea, that's that's going to affect mark us negatively. 336 00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:11,160 Speaker 9: So I carefully watching. 337 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:14,920 Speaker 2: That strengthen the end though, really over the past ten 338 00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:19,040 Speaker 2: days really feels like more dollar dollar weakness than yen strength. 339 00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:20,920 Speaker 2: I don't think the signals really have been that strong 340 00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:23,600 Speaker 2: out of the Boja, but if because also if you 341 00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:27,520 Speaker 2: look at the yuan, the Chinese REMMB, the CNH now 342 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:30,560 Speaker 2: seven sixteen. A week ago, we were worried about hitting 343 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:35,800 Speaker 2: seven thirty. So that that's but that does big A 344 00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:38,560 Speaker 2: little bit of discussion here quickly on China. We've had 345 00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:42,280 Speaker 2: a number of developments lately about non monetary and fiscal 346 00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:44,679 Speaker 2: ways of stimulating the economy. Do you like what you see? 347 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:48,240 Speaker 11: Well, Brian, there's a lot of liquid he bumped into 348 00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:51,040 Speaker 11: the system now, right, the new loans that came out 349 00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:51,560 Speaker 11: the other night. 350 00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:52,679 Speaker 9: I mean that's more than. 351 00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:57,520 Speaker 11: Triples BBOC contas the exact liquidity you know, very quickly, right, 352 00:17:57,600 --> 00:18:01,600 Speaker 11: So it's a sort of a few there for yeah, 353 00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:04,160 Speaker 11: for biggest stimulus or at least a push. I think 354 00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:07,520 Speaker 11: these PMI data are coming out later in July. You know, 355 00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:10,520 Speaker 11: you could see some effects from that. The cacshin surfaces 356 00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:13,000 Speaker 11: PMI data was a little stronger than expected. That so 357 00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:15,439 Speaker 11: there's already I think some of that stimulus that they 358 00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:19,600 Speaker 11: did earlier in June is impacting data, and the Chinese 359 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:21,200 Speaker 11: are very technical and very effective in it. 360 00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:25,280 Speaker 2: This is Bloomberg Daybreak Asia.
