Find Bloomberg Surveillance on Apple Podcasts, SoundCloud, 4 00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:27,000 Speaker 1: Bloomberg dot Com, and of course on the Bloomberg Let 5 00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:29,440 Speaker 1: us discuss Washington now, and let us try to get 6 00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:32,320 Speaker 1: out through the week where maybe policy will be committed 7 00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:35,080 Speaker 1: in Washington. There's no one better to talk to than 8 00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:38,239 Speaker 1: the gentle lady from New Orleans. Henrietta Trades joined us 9 00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:42,080 Speaker 1: Beta Partners. Henrietta, You and the rest of the world 10 00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:46,720 Speaker 1: have to get to the wonderful Breeze Brady distraction next weekend. 11 00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:50,239 Speaker 1: There's a small football game in your New Orleans is 12 00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:53,320 Speaker 1: a nation, seriously as a nation can will still be 13 00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:58,040 Speaker 1: standing on Friday to get to that important match. I 14 00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:00,360 Speaker 1: would say, you can't keep New Orleans down. So we'll 15 00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:03,040 Speaker 1: just kink kinkake our way through this and get to 16 00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:05,240 Speaker 1: the end. No matter what happens in d C. We 17 00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:07,679 Speaker 1: will see that game. We will see that game, but 18 00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:10,240 Speaker 1: we've got to get through the game of this political 19 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:15,479 Speaker 1: crisis as well. Frame out policy makers in Washington. Your 20 00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:20,880 Speaker 1: expertise with the constitutional crisis we face. I think the 21 00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:24,360 Speaker 1: next nine days, as you were reminding me earlier, is 22 00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:28,839 Speaker 1: going to be everything from resignation to the Amendment UM 23 00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:30,840 Speaker 1: going back to the Confederacy, and things that can be 24 00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:36,920 Speaker 1: done to um eject lawmakers who are potentially UM fostering rebellion, 25 00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:39,760 Speaker 1: to impeachment. Certainly that will be going on all the 26 00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:42,360 Speaker 1: way through the twenty and then what we've heard from 27 00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 1: the Democratic leadership in the last a couple of days 28 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:47,200 Speaker 1: is that we might actually hold over this idea of 29 00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 1: impeachment well into one so that Democrats and some Republicans 30 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,600 Speaker 1: can ensure the President Trump can never run for office again. 31 00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 1: So I don't think the storyline is going to get 32 00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:59,400 Speaker 1: behind us anytime soon. This week will obviously be filled 33 00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 1: with a lot of job and back and forth, but 34 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 1: the nation will move on to a Biden administration and 35 00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 1: will get there soon enough. Henrietta, help us purse out 36 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:09,600 Speaker 1: the reality the substance from the drama. I mean, there's 37 00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 1: a lot of drama and there's a lot of reality. 38 00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 1: But what aspects of what we've seen unfold in Washington, 39 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:18,360 Speaker 1: d C. With the insurrection, with some of the fallout 40 00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:23,360 Speaker 1: from how quickly law enforcement responded has long lasting implications 41 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:28,240 Speaker 1: for policy. I think the amazing thing about Wednesday of 42 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 1: last week was that we got the Georgia Senate elections 43 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:34,560 Speaker 1: and that insurrection at the exact same time. And one 44 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:36,920 Speaker 1: of the things I noticed even before the insurrection started 45 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:38,960 Speaker 1: was that Republicans were eager to move on to a 46 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:42,200 Speaker 1: policy discussion, get away from the sort of cult of 47 00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:45,919 Speaker 1: personality association the Republican Conference currently has with Donald Trump 48 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,440 Speaker 1: and moved to a discussion about policy. And so that 49 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 1: actually has driven a number of Republican members in both 50 00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:54,519 Speaker 1: the House and Senate, and certainly their lobbyists to say, 51 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:56,519 Speaker 1: we do want to pass the bill with Joe Biden 52 00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,320 Speaker 1: early in one. I don't want to suggest that this 53 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:01,400 Speaker 1: will be a compa a young moment that will last 54 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:04,160 Speaker 1: for eternity, but I think we get ninety days here 55 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:07,880 Speaker 1: for a sixty vote threshold bipartisan bill against ten to 56 00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 1: fifteen Republican votes in the Senate. I'm not really sure 57 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 1: exactly how many yet in the House, but those are 58 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:16,600 Speaker 1: members who want to have policy to debate, want to 59 00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:19,079 Speaker 1: be able to move on from the discussion of Donald Trump. 60 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:21,679 Speaker 1: So I don't I think in the immediate term, which 61 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:23,880 Speaker 1: is probably the best way to approach the situation right 62 00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:26,520 Speaker 1: now is just day by day, we are going to 63 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:30,120 Speaker 1: see even more optimism for a sixty vote threshold stimulus 64 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:32,679 Speaker 1: package right out of the gate and inviided administration that 65 00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 1: Republicans are expecting to work on, not just hoping to 66 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:38,680 Speaker 1: work on, but really expecting to pass with him. So 67 00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 1: that's the biggest impact, at least for our plans. This 68 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 1: is key and Henrietta, you phrase that so well, This 69 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 1: idea that the turmoil that we saw in Washington is 70 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 1: actually pushing Republicans and Democrats further towards some sort of 71 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:54,560 Speaker 1: consensus to work on policy, to move forward from what 72 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:57,600 Speaker 1: they would like to be simply a distraction. How big 73 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 1: could this stimulus be? Great question. I mean, it depends 74 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 1: on who you talk to you right now, I think 75 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:05,840 Speaker 1: Democrats are gonna start with the humongous ask two, three 76 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:08,400 Speaker 1: or four trillion dollars, as we've discussed in the past, 77 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:12,800 Speaker 1: Republicans are going to get sticker shock, probably anywhere above 78 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 1: seven fifty opening salvos from Republican leadership I've spoken to 79 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 1: have suggested a five billion dollar number, but the reality 80 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 1: is with Democrats in control, of the House and Senate. 81 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 1: They're not gonna waste their time on a five billion 82 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 1: dollar package. So my base case assumption is that at 83 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 1: the very low end we get something in the seven 84 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:31,360 Speaker 1: D eight hundred billion dollar range. At the high end, 85 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 1: maybe at one point eight trillion UM. That's gonna depend 86 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:35,800 Speaker 1: on the size of any direct payments they want to 87 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:39,440 Speaker 1: get out. As y'all know, the the payments to individuals 88 00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:42,719 Speaker 1: or any individual side stimulus is expensively just because of 89 00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:44,920 Speaker 1: how many individuals there are that you need to give 90 00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 1: money to. So I don't mean, I don't mean to interrupt, 91 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 1: but I am because at least that I remember, there 92 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 1: was a Job's report on Friday, and I understand within 93 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:59,279 Speaker 1: the original Washington you and everybody else's dealing right now, 94 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,880 Speaker 1: I'm not even sure the politicians are aware of how 95 00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 1: ugly that Job's report was. Do they care? And does 96 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:13,040 Speaker 1: it create a new urgency around the real crises plural 97 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:17,239 Speaker 1: that we have. That's exactly the narrative I think that's important. 98 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 1: Urgency and crisis. There's two words that you use are 99 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:23,760 Speaker 1: going to propel this package forward. Um. It's beneficial on 100 00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:26,640 Speaker 1: every single level. Both the need an urgency basis to 101 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:29,080 Speaker 1: call this a crisis. The jobs report, the COVID deaths, 102 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:33,440 Speaker 1: the shutdowns we're saying nationwide, UM, the worst hospitalization rates 103 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:37,599 Speaker 1: we've seen thus far, UM, the crisis of unemployment obviously 104 00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 1: brought to the fore by the long term unemployed and 105 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:43,400 Speaker 1: the most recent jobs number. And the benefit of a 106 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:46,760 Speaker 1: crisis and this urgency that feeds yourself is that you 107 00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:48,640 Speaker 1: don't have to pay for us. And that is the 108 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:51,520 Speaker 1: path of East resistance to getting sixty votes. So all 109 00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:55,000 Speaker 1: that helps. One final question, Henrietta, does it matter to you, 110 00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:57,720 Speaker 1: as we're talking with a number of our guests this morning, 111 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 1: to see Republicans become in dependence Ala Murkowski of Alaska? 112 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:07,719 Speaker 1: That is h humongous. I mean Senators Murkowski, Collins, Romney, 113 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 1: Ben Sass. Those are members who could potentially split the 114 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:16,120 Speaker 1: difference between a fifty Republican Democratic majority split in the 115 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:19,160 Speaker 1: Senate and really give Democrats a functioning majority. That's what 116 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:20,880 Speaker 1: we saw last time in two thousand and one when 117 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:24,160 Speaker 1: this happened, it took until May for Republican to defect 118 00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 1: the Independent Conference and caucus with Democrats. If that happens, um, 119 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:31,960 Speaker 1: that really smooths our path to another Reconciliation bill later on. 120 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:35,040 Speaker 1: This should be more stimulus, Henrietta, thank you so much, 121 00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:42,560 Speaker 1: Tres Veta Partners. There's a question that the fraud that 122 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:44,320 Speaker 1: we're seeing come off the top in some stocks and 123 00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:47,279 Speaker 1: we're seeing commensurate moves within the credit space. It does 124 00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:49,680 Speaker 1: not seem like it. But perhaps there is not the 125 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:52,200 Speaker 1: same froth. This is one of the big existential questions 126 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:55,560 Speaker 1: facing people searching for income, Brian Weinstein, among them Morgan 127 00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:59,599 Speaker 1: Stanley Investment Management, head of Global fixed Income joining us Now, Brian, 128 00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:03,800 Speaker 1: are you seeing a similar type of froththiness and aspects 129 00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:06,720 Speaker 1: of the credit market as people point to in aspects 130 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 1: of equities. Man, after listening to you guys the last 131 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:11,800 Speaker 1: few minutes, I feel like we're so we're so boring, 132 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 1: um sick be income has some frofit it I like 133 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 1: anything else that it's moved up, and it's been a 134 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 1: straight line, but nothing really parabolic, right. I think it's 135 00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 1: been a bit more rational, a bit more slow, led 136 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 1: by the FED, led by low rates, and we've seen 137 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:28,840 Speaker 1: small reversals that in real yields and in regular interest rates, 138 00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 1: and but Prence Fed are still type people are still 139 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 1: looking for income. You can't get it. So I feel 140 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 1: like there is froth, but it doesn't compare in the 141 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,120 Speaker 1: same way to the things that you guys were just discussing. 142 00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 1: Does that affect your investment, this thesis, this idea that 143 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 1: you're not seeing the same froththiness. So that's a green 144 00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 1: light to continue to go deeper into risk and credit, 145 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:50,880 Speaker 1: you know, yes, yes and no. I mean certainly investors 146 00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 1: are speaking with their whilets and they're moving to risk 147 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 1: your assets because he flows into emerging market, flows into 148 00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 1: things with income like high yield and even bank loans, 149 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:00,160 Speaker 1: and what it makes us want to do to be 150 00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:01,800 Speaker 1: a little bit more slow and steady. I mean pick 151 00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 1: income is supposed to be a bit more boring than 152 00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 1: than than bitcoin or equities. UM. So what we're doing 153 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:09,120 Speaker 1: is we're not changing our views based on these manic 154 00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 1: market moves, and we're trying to take it into accounty 155 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 1: the impact of the historical events we're seeing. Right, we 156 00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 1: don't want to be over overcompetent, but we think more 157 00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:18,960 Speaker 1: stimulus is coming. Um. We obviously have the Democrats coming, um, 158 00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:21,200 Speaker 1: so have maybe spead the higher taxes, So all those 159 00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 1: things are going to play into our into our thought 160 00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:27,000 Speaker 1: but it's flowing to stay. Brian, you talk in your 161 00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 1: research note of winners in losers. If we go back 162 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:34,360 Speaker 1: to single digit returns and even bond returns of say 163 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:38,120 Speaker 1: four or five, six, seven percent, how do you parse 164 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:41,240 Speaker 1: a winner to get out to a double digit return 165 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 1: of ten? You have double digit returns and pick sncome 166 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:47,600 Speaker 1: keep getting keep getting harder, Um, And so I think 167 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:49,880 Speaker 1: what you do is you stick to your fundamental research. Right. 168 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:52,200 Speaker 1: There are all kinds of sectors that have been really 169 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:54,680 Speaker 1: beaten up, but by this emming energy for the last 170 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:57,120 Speaker 1: couple of years for sure than things like gaming and 171 00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:00,160 Speaker 1: other other places where the pandemic is hit. So as 172 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:02,120 Speaker 1: an active manager, it helps, I think to be slow 173 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:04,120 Speaker 1: and steady. We're not going to get double digit returns 174 00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:05,600 Speaker 1: in a week and a month. You talk about, you know, 175 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:08,280 Speaker 1: things a day or and over a weekend. You know 176 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 1: it's it's going to take I think a bit of 177 00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:12,200 Speaker 1: a longer time, and you'll have to get thematic um 178 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:15,960 Speaker 1: active selection right as opposed to just owning credit or 179 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 1: just owning high yield. That's not going to get you there. 180 00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 1: I know you're not doing technical analysis, but what level 181 00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:27,560 Speaker 1: of the tenure yield up price lower is a trip point, 182 00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:31,600 Speaker 1: is a Weinstein moment where you say, oops, bonds lower. 183 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:35,280 Speaker 1: I think we're really close. Um. I was surprised actually, 184 00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:37,160 Speaker 1: and it wasn't a big move, but over as got 185 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 1: over one ten that people didn't get more nervous. Tom 186 00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:42,880 Speaker 1: I would say that fifty range if you don't get 187 00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:45,040 Speaker 1: the steed coming right out, and then they probably won't 188 00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:47,600 Speaker 1: if that doesn't come right out and complain about it. Um, 189 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:50,120 Speaker 1: I think that's where people get nervous, because I moved 190 00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 1: back towards two percent um and you probably do have 191 00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 1: to have the central banks doing some more unnatural things 192 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 1: to count the rate um now with impacts on the dollar, 193 00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:00,320 Speaker 1: impacts on on psyche and obviously on valuation. So but 194 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 1: a lot of people do expect the Fed to jump in, right, 195 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 1: I mean you're saying that the Fed would have to, 196 00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:06,559 Speaker 1: but they would because otherwise you would get some sort 197 00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:10,640 Speaker 1: of disruption in credit markets and financial conditions. When you 198 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,680 Speaker 1: talk about the defense of boring bonds, this idea that 199 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:16,960 Speaker 1: there's almost this defensiveness in your discussion. It's not that exciting. 200 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:21,080 Speaker 1: But we're stolid, we're steady, we're a reliable investment. Do 201 00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:24,920 Speaker 1: you see credit as being sustained even with a rise 202 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 1: of yields to fifty and the benchmark rate. Yes, and 203 00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 1: we're sure there'll be some bumps along the way, right, 204 00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:33,200 Speaker 1: this will not continue to be a straight line tighter, 205 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:35,520 Speaker 1: but we do think you'll see money coming in higher 206 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 1: deals to do. Think credit um is on decent footing. 207 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:40,360 Speaker 1: And as you say, um, you have to stad at 208 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:42,960 Speaker 1: your back somewhere out there, and you have the government 209 00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 1: at your back more stimulus somewhere out there. So again 210 00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:47,760 Speaker 1: it won't be the double digit return corporate year um. 211 00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:49,600 Speaker 1: But if you do need a couple of percent. As 212 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:51,679 Speaker 1: you look in some of these sectors am high yield 213 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:54,560 Speaker 1: loans um that still have still have some yield, you 214 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:56,559 Speaker 1: can still do okay, even if you'll move up a 215 00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:58,439 Speaker 1: little bit UM And as you say, the stead will 216 00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:00,439 Speaker 1: step in at some point. We're in the world. Is 217 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:05,280 Speaker 1: the best value right now, Brian? Probably in emerging market 218 00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:07,640 Speaker 1: still and we've seen the flows in that direction. Things 219 00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:09,680 Speaker 1: have been it from a week or dollar um. That's 220 00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:12,200 Speaker 1: probably just still this thing that has the If the 221 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,599 Speaker 1: set does step then where's the release valve, Probably in 222 00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 1: the in the dollar weakening. So yeah, is a is 223 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 1: a good spot. Um, Hi yield that down in credit 224 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:22,400 Speaker 1: again when you can do your homework and it's not 225 00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:26,760 Speaker 1: just how yeld data, it's something you know, interesting and unique. Um, 226 00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:28,680 Speaker 1: those things with yield I think are still places you 227 00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 1: want to go. Bryan Weinstein, thank you so much. From 228 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:38,000 Speaker 1: Morgan Stanley Investment Management. We appreciate your time to surveillance. 229 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:42,560 Speaker 1: Keeps a lovely ship's bill over by the deak where 230 00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:45,839 Speaker 1: they all sit, and every time I said go to cash, 231 00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:50,599 Speaker 1: they ring the bell. The bell has been ringing a 232 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:53,480 Speaker 1: lot over the last three years. We talked about people 233 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,560 Speaker 1: to get bonds right that have gotten right low yields. 234 00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 1: We talk about people who get the equity markets right. 235 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:04,440 Speaker 1: But in the world of equities, no one has consistently 236 00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:08,959 Speaker 1: done it better. And Benjamin Laylor at HSBC at Tower 237 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:13,400 Speaker 1: Hudson's as well, and not only did he nail two 238 00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:17,720 Speaker 1: years ago, did he nail last year, but this year 239 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:20,640 Speaker 1: he continues the enthusiasm. Ben Laylor, thank you so much 240 00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:23,640 Speaker 1: for joining us. Is all that went on last week 241 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:30,400 Speaker 1: shaking your bull conviction? Um? I don't think so. I mean, 242 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:33,600 Speaker 1: obviously what went on last week was shocking in sort 243 00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:36,760 Speaker 1: of very many ways, but I guess the outline for 244 00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:40,320 Speaker 1: this year is really unchanged. I mean, we are looking at, 245 00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:45,000 Speaker 1: I think, just a historic growth year where expectations frankly 246 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:48,600 Speaker 1: are still too low, both for GDP growth and for 247 00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:51,320 Speaker 1: ernsings growth. And I think that's going to be really 248 00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:54,560 Speaker 1: what's going to drive the surprise, the upside surprise for 249 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:56,560 Speaker 1: this year, and and it's going to come against the 250 00:12:56,559 --> 00:13:00,720 Speaker 1: backdrop of I think still very benevolence sort of policy 251 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:03,640 Speaker 1: support UM, and I think that's going to allow evaluations 252 00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:06,360 Speaker 1: to come down a little bit but still remain much 253 00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:08,400 Speaker 1: higher than they have been historically. And that's really I 254 00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:10,880 Speaker 1: think the combination that you need to focus on for 255 00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:13,040 Speaker 1: this year. I mean that I think we're setting ourselves 256 00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 1: up for a very very rare sort of third year 257 00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:20,000 Speaker 1: of consecutive strong equity game. And so you've you've you've 258 00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:23,959 Speaker 1: seen it. Count on three fingers how many times you've 259 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:26,240 Speaker 1: seen over the last fifty or sixty years that people 260 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 1: are may be right to be cautious yet. But I 261 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:31,040 Speaker 1: think that I think that outlook is is what we're 262 00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:33,160 Speaker 1: playing for here, and I actually probably be a bit 263 00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:35,720 Speaker 1: better about it now than I did. UM. You know, 264 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:37,520 Speaker 1: maybe not because of last week, but certainly over the 265 00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:39,880 Speaker 1: last a couple of weeks, I think the outlook has 266 00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:43,880 Speaker 1: probably firmed up. Ben, What's so important here is along 267 00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 1: the way there's a nuance of sectors. Is this the 268 00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:50,880 Speaker 1: blunt instrument of a market just lifting or tell us 269 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:55,480 Speaker 1: your sector nuance, the distinctions between two years ago one 270 00:13:55,600 --> 00:14:01,319 Speaker 1: years ago in your sector allocation? Now, yes, as I 271 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:03,480 Speaker 1: would sort of sectors and countries. I mean, I think 272 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:06,480 Speaker 1: you definitely get paid to. I mean I prefer to 273 00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:08,959 Speaker 1: call it out sort of catch up of these sort 274 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:12,839 Speaker 1: of value cyclical sectors and also international market rather than 275 00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:16,000 Speaker 1: a rotation, because I think everything is going up. I 276 00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:18,920 Speaker 1: just think this sort of value cyclical and international markets 277 00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,080 Speaker 1: are probably going up a bit more than the sort 278 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:23,120 Speaker 1: of winners of last year. But I do think everything's 279 00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 1: going up um and and the it's a very different environment. 280 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:31,800 Speaker 1: I mean, we're I think right now you should be 281 00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:34,720 Speaker 1: reaching for risk, you should be reaching for growth. M 282 00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:36,760 Speaker 1: In many ways, that's sort of the opposite of last year. 283 00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:39,760 Speaker 1: So we're you know, very focused on places that you 284 00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 1: know have um you know, value and cyclicals are probably 285 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:46,240 Speaker 1: going to grow three to four times more than the 286 00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:49,320 Speaker 1: sort of winners of last year. This year and you're 287 00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:55,360 Speaker 1: paying third lower valuations. I mean that's basically I think 288 00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 1: the outlook for this year. So you know, where do 289 00:14:57,480 --> 00:15:00,120 Speaker 1: I get that most operating leverage to this, to this 290 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:04,280 Speaker 1: environment of higher GDP growth on a half bond fields. Um, 291 00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:07,880 Speaker 1: it's it's industrials, it's small cap, it's financials, it's it's 292 00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:11,400 Speaker 1: the emerging market, it's a bit of Europe. Um. This 293 00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:13,960 Speaker 1: is where I think that the most unt I mean 294 00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 1: part of make to make this clear, Ben Laylor's law 295 00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:20,280 Speaker 1: on the Cleveland Browns exactly talk about an add of 296 00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:23,280 Speaker 1: the odd of the money call there, Ben, you know, 297 00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:25,400 Speaker 1: at some point, well, we're about to go into the 298 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:28,200 Speaker 1: fourth quarter earning season here, Ben, and at some point 299 00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:32,120 Speaker 1: earnings have to matter. Can't just be the fed flooding 300 00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:34,960 Speaker 1: in the market with liquidity. What's your earnings outlook here 301 00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:39,400 Speaker 1: for one and maybe into next year? Yeah, So I 302 00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:41,440 Speaker 1: completely agree with that. I mean a fourth quarter, you know, 303 00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:45,040 Speaker 1: earnings do need to sort of keep delivering, and and 304 00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:46,480 Speaker 1: I think they sort of have been right. I Mean, 305 00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:49,400 Speaker 1: we've just come off two quarters of the biggest earnings 306 00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 1: beats you've you've ever seen in recent history. Um, And 307 00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:55,040 Speaker 1: I think this is going to be a sort of 308 00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:57,600 Speaker 1: another quarter where you see some very strong earnings Beach 309 00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:01,200 Speaker 1: one and two. Who's been leading those speech, It's exactly 310 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:04,040 Speaker 1: those sectors, um, that I've just been sort of talking about. 311 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:07,480 Speaker 1: It's um, it's been those most sort of cytroical sectors 312 00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:10,240 Speaker 1: with the most depressed earnings. So that's what I'm looking 313 00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:12,760 Speaker 1: for for this quarter, that sort of narrative to continue 314 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:16,760 Speaker 1: of just more earnings beat driving further earnings sort of 315 00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:19,240 Speaker 1: upgrades and those beat coming out of these most sort 316 00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:22,000 Speaker 1: of depressed sectors. But to ance your question to you know, 317 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 1: earnings outlook for next year of sorry for this year. 318 00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:26,720 Speaker 1: I just have to get used to saying that in 319 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:30,480 Speaker 1: the US, UM, the US that he was sent internationally, 320 00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:33,920 Speaker 1: and I think there's probably UM, I think when all 321 00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:35,800 Speaker 1: this sad and done, those numbers are going to be 322 00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:38,480 Speaker 1: about at least ten percent too low across the board. 323 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:42,560 Speaker 1: When you look back historically, UM, you know, very rarely 324 00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:45,920 Speaker 1: the analysts sort of low ball earnings. But when they do, 325 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:48,600 Speaker 1: it's either because we're coming out of a recession or 326 00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 1: it's because we're somewhere along the line we're getting sort 327 00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:55,080 Speaker 1: of more fiscal stimulus be being poured into the market, 328 00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:57,160 Speaker 1: and this year we have got both of those things, 329 00:16:57,640 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 1: and potentially we're about to getting even you know another 330 00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:03,240 Speaker 1: another slug of fiscal expansion. So I think earnings are 331 00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:07,240 Speaker 1: fas too low. Um, and you know you CONSERNSUS for 332 00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:09,200 Speaker 1: US this year when all of a sudden done, I 333 00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:12,680 Speaker 1: think we're probably close to the thirty alright. So Ben, 334 00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:16,120 Speaker 1: you've taken your career kind of looking at this global 335 00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:19,720 Speaker 1: this equity business on a global scale, on globally rate. 336 00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:22,440 Speaker 1: Here as we start, where do you see some of 337 00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:28,840 Speaker 1: the best opportunities on a global outlook basis? Yeah, So, 338 00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:31,120 Speaker 1: as I say, I mean we are definitely looking at 339 00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:33,520 Speaker 1: you know, assets which should be deeply out of favor 340 00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:36,480 Speaker 1: for the last decade or so. Um, you know, internationals 341 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:38,879 Speaker 1: one and sort of value stroke cyclicals is another one. 342 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:42,879 Speaker 1: I mean those two together have probably underperformed, um you 343 00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:45,080 Speaker 1: know growth from the US by you know, over two 344 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:47,960 Speaker 1: percentage points over the last decade. So this I think 345 00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:50,600 Speaker 1: is the change, um, both on the value six of 346 00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:53,080 Speaker 1: your side, also at your point on the international side. UM. 347 00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:54,760 Speaker 1: So i'd be looking at I'd be looking at the 348 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:58,000 Speaker 1: m you know specifically, Um, you know, the more cyclical 349 00:17:58,040 --> 00:18:02,000 Speaker 1: bits of em sort of Latin semir frontier market, basically 350 00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:04,520 Speaker 1: the bit that didn't do well last year, which is 351 00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:08,120 Speaker 1: really all about China and and bits from Europe, especially 352 00:18:08,119 --> 00:18:12,719 Speaker 1: sort of domestic cyclical Europe financials in Europe. Until very recently, 353 00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:15,040 Speaker 1: those were pretty much the cheapest, most out of favor, 354 00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:18,720 Speaker 1: most paided, uh sort of segments. Um, that's where i'd 355 00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:20,920 Speaker 1: be looking. I mean, I guess the sort of caveat um, 356 00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:23,320 Speaker 1: and I would say, what do you get for that? 357 00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:26,040 Speaker 1: You basically get twice the growth for those segments that 358 00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:28,200 Speaker 1: you do in the US, and you're basically only paying 359 00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:31,240 Speaker 1: a third less in terms of in terms of evaluation. 360 00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:34,359 Speaker 1: So that's why I think it's worth looking, um, you know, 361 00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:39,240 Speaker 1: looking internationally, I guess the one caveat is is currencies. Um, 362 00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:45,480 Speaker 1: Euro's obviously been strengthening, Yen's obviously been strengthening. And I 363 00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:48,440 Speaker 1: was just gonna say, that's that's a pretty big headwin 364 00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:50,600 Speaker 1: for some of these companies, which which are you know, 365 00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:53,960 Speaker 1: big international players. Um, so sort of just there are 366 00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:58,200 Speaker 1: some caveats, but what if you don't get that consensus. 367 00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:02,399 Speaker 1: Mark McCormick was from t D Securities and Ben Laidler. 368 00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:05,760 Speaker 1: I mean Marcus really pushed it against consensus. He's got 369 00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:10,879 Speaker 1: your equity optimism, your optimism on recovery through all of 370 00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:14,439 Speaker 1: these challenges, and he says, the great unspoken could be 371 00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:17,879 Speaker 1: strong dour this year. What do the equity markets do 372 00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 1: if we get a Mark mccormickdollar. Yeah, I mean I 373 00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:24,959 Speaker 1: think that that that would clearly be negative. I mean 374 00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:28,320 Speaker 1: I'm not looking for big, significant dollar weakness from here. 375 00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:30,879 Speaker 1: I mean you've actually had a lot. I'll you know, 376 00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:34,359 Speaker 1: I think markets can do well with sort of dollar stabilization, 377 00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 1: and I'm not and I'm not sure I see the 378 00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:42,920 Speaker 1: ingredient for you know, meaningfully stronger dollar. Um. But but again, um, 379 00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:45,199 Speaker 1: the you know, going actually initial point. I mean, if 380 00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:48,120 Speaker 1: we don't get that bigning surprise and clearly we're gonna 381 00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:50,720 Speaker 1: make a lot, we're just gonna we're gonna make less money. 382 00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:52,240 Speaker 1: I mean, I think you're, you know, you're looking us 383 00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:55,040 Speaker 1: sort of flatish US year at that point. You know, 384 00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:56,880 Speaker 1: markets do you know, obviously do a pretty good job 385 00:19:56,880 --> 00:19:59,119 Speaker 1: of pricing things in ahead of time, which is why 386 00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:01,920 Speaker 1: you've very rarely se that sort of third year of 387 00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:05,600 Speaker 1: strong gains. So I think it probably turns um, you know, 388 00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:08,200 Speaker 1: a pretty strong year into a plast this year. I'm 389 00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:11,560 Speaker 1: not sure it completely derails it. Um, you know, only 390 00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:13,800 Speaker 1: growth is still you know, still a big number. And 391 00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:15,919 Speaker 1: I think more importantly, I think we begin to focus 392 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:18,200 Speaker 1: spent more on on you know, actual actually next year 393 00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:19,720 Speaker 1: at some point where I still think you're going to 394 00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:22,760 Speaker 1: see um, you know, I sort of flow through from 395 00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:25,159 Speaker 1: this year into next year and still decent earnings at 396 00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 1: that point and a forbearance and and sort of reasonably 397 00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:31,840 Speaker 1: reasonable forbearance and the bed which I think will support valuations. 398 00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:34,159 Speaker 1: Benjo and Lee lu thank you so much. Terror Hud 399 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:41,360 Speaker 1: sitting here on optimism within the equity marketing, Well, there 400 00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:44,800 Speaker 1: are financials, there are investments as well. There's also, of 401 00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:48,720 Speaker 1: course a constitutional crisis in Washington. For more than anything, 402 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:52,080 Speaker 1: we're all living in the pandemic, living the reality of 403 00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:55,119 Speaker 1: what we are going to do. Is Katie Peess already 404 00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:58,800 Speaker 1: out of the Johns Hopkins University system at Adream Health Charlotte, 405 00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:02,119 Speaker 1: North Carolina, and not so much in the trenches of 406 00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:04,600 Speaker 1: what we're doing, but in the hey, we've got to 407 00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:08,800 Speaker 1: get this done. Of what we're doing in vaccination, Kate 408 00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:12,320 Speaker 1: Pess already, what is your best practice right now to 409 00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:17,280 Speaker 1: ramp up our vaccination programs. Yes, certainly you all were 410 00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:22,360 Speaker 1: just talking about, you know, transitioning testing sites larger arenas 411 00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:25,560 Speaker 1: into vaccination sites. I do think the more people we 412 00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:29,200 Speaker 1: can get vaccinated, you know, as soon as possible as 413 00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:32,840 Speaker 1: supply allows, and making sure that we're prioritizing those at 414 00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:35,880 Speaker 1: higher risks so that we get the most um kind 415 00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:38,600 Speaker 1: of impact from protecting the people that may have higher 416 00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:42,680 Speaker 1: likelihood of possibility. Is money and funding a constraint? Are 417 00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:45,439 Speaker 1: you limited or is Mount Scion, New York or Cedars 418 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:49,480 Speaker 1: Sinai out in l A? Are you people limited by 419 00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:54,560 Speaker 1: the budgeting of the last mile of vaccination? You know, 420 00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:58,280 Speaker 1: the conversations I've been a part of. Budgeting isn't as 421 00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:01,639 Speaker 1: much of an issue. Certainly, the things are all very expensive. 422 00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:04,720 Speaker 1: It's how do we functionally get it done and deal 423 00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:08,959 Speaker 1: with the financial consequences later. Certainly, you know, tremendous work needed, 424 00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:12,560 Speaker 1: tremendous people resources needed to make that happen. Is there 425 00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:15,800 Speaker 1: a skill to giving a vaccine? My skill is to 426 00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:18,240 Speaker 1: hold somebody's hand because I know it's going to hurt 427 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 1: so much. I'm kidding folks, But is there a skill? 428 00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:25,240 Speaker 1: Is there a skill to giving a shot. So the 429 00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:28,440 Speaker 1: actual functionality of giving a shot can be done by 430 00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:32,440 Speaker 1: you know, medical professionals at different levels. You do, and 431 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:34,480 Speaker 1: on the off chance that there is a reaction to 432 00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:37,720 Speaker 1: the vaccine, need to have people able to respond quickly 433 00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:40,800 Speaker 1: if someone has a reaction. So you do need medical 434 00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:43,480 Speaker 1: professionals there. You can't just be yeah. I mean, I 435 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:45,879 Speaker 1: remember Katie the leap from touch to cycling out to 436 00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:48,120 Speaker 1: seto menafin, and you know, there was some real doubt 437 00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:51,800 Speaker 1: about all these modern fancy antibiotics. What have you learned 438 00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:55,080 Speaker 1: in a number of weeks about our confidence in having 439 00:22:55,119 --> 00:23:00,320 Speaker 1: these vaccines both shots? Yeah, so certainly we have an 440 00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:03,920 Speaker 1: increase in people's confidence as more and more people get vaccine. 441 00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:06,600 Speaker 1: Having that, we still have a huge, huge, huge way 442 00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:09,239 Speaker 1: to go to get the protection our community needs. Well, 443 00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:11,280 Speaker 1: we got a huge way to go. But do we 444 00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:13,920 Speaker 1: do that with an increasing confidence or we just sort 445 00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:16,200 Speaker 1: of there and and we have to get it done. 446 00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:19,680 Speaker 1: And do you do you suggest that there'll be societal 447 00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:26,840 Speaker 1: constraints that will force vaccination. Um, you know, I think 448 00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:30,400 Speaker 1: it's unlikely as far as mandatory vaccination. Is that kind 449 00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:32,639 Speaker 1: of what you're saying, like an airline says you're not 450 00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:35,960 Speaker 1: getting on board if you don't have a vaccine. Yeah, 451 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:38,680 Speaker 1: so certainly I think private entities may go that route 452 00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:42,159 Speaker 1: and specifically kind of travel related you know, requiring proof 453 00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:44,159 Speaker 1: of vaccination to get on a plane and go to 454 00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:46,760 Speaker 1: certain areas. Certainly I think that's possible. You know, at 455 00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:50,159 Speaker 1: the governmental level, I think less likely, at least for 456 00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:53,800 Speaker 1: a very long time. UM that will happen. The timeline 457 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:57,480 Speaker 1: if you sophisticated m R n A vaccines is you know, 458 00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:00,080 Speaker 1: for anybody to study this and a pro like you 459 00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:03,440 Speaker 1: are a hack like me. It's really really something. How 460 00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:06,199 Speaker 1: close are we to what Peter Hotez of Baylor College 461 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:10,359 Speaker 1: of Medicine talks about, which is a low cost traditional 462 00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:14,880 Speaker 1: vaccine to really get this done? Where are we in that? Yes, 463 00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:17,840 Speaker 1: certainly getting closer by the day. So the MR and 464 00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:22,080 Speaker 1: A story is amazing and happened safely and rapidly over 465 00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:24,440 Speaker 1: a very short period of time. But that doesn't mean 466 00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:28,320 Speaker 1: that other vaccine candidates, traditional vaccine candidates like you mentioned, 467 00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:31,320 Speaker 1: weren't being worked on at the same time. So more 468 00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:34,440 Speaker 1: and more UM research studies are going on to get 469 00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:36,800 Speaker 1: the level of data to make sure that type of 470 00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:40,959 Speaker 1: vaccine is protective, and you know, the cost the handling 471 00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:44,400 Speaker 1: of the current MR and A vaccines are hugely, hugely 472 00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:47,000 Speaker 1: kind of blocking getting them out. So as we get 473 00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:50,600 Speaker 1: these more, more of these candidates that are more easily 474 00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:54,760 Speaker 1: usable and distributable UM out. It's it's hugely important. There's 475 00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:56,600 Speaker 1: a ton of work going on to make that happen. 476 00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:00,440 Speaker 1: Do you envision the Charlotte Charlotte, North Carolina, folks, is 477 00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:04,639 Speaker 1: Charlotte Convention Center being used as the vaccine site? Is 478 00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:08,080 Speaker 1: that where we're heading? You know, certainly the Health Department 479 00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:11,760 Speaker 1: is already using um beau Jangles Coliseum to vaccinate people. 480 00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:13,720 Speaker 1: You know, I do think we are going to need 481 00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:17,000 Speaker 1: larger venues to get the volume of people vaccinated that 482 00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:20,119 Speaker 1: we need. That's going to mean private healthcare, you know, 483 00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:23,679 Speaker 1: public Health Department, all groups kind of working together to 484 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:26,080 Speaker 1: make that happen. What have you learned about the shock? 485 00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:28,160 Speaker 1: I mean, so many people are concerned about the shock, 486 00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:30,840 Speaker 1: and there's this report and that report one out of 487 00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:33,080 Speaker 1: a million, one out of a hundred thousand, whatever those 488 00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:36,879 Speaker 1: numbers are. Are those numbers contained and appropriate or do 489 00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:41,120 Speaker 1: you have any concern about the research on shock? Yeah? 490 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:43,760 Speaker 1: So certainly, the numbers have continued to be low of 491 00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:48,120 Speaker 1: people that have anaphylactic shock or shock like reactions following 492 00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:50,760 Speaker 1: the vaccine, which is reassuring as we go out to 493 00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:54,359 Speaker 1: larger and larger groups of people. UM, certainly, you know, 494 00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:56,560 Speaker 1: we need to continue to monitor, but you know, those 495 00:25:56,680 --> 00:25:59,560 Speaker 1: I would just re enforce that those numbers do stay 496 00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:02,879 Speaker 1: low and happen in a very small number of people. 497 00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:05,520 Speaker 1: In the vast majority of people do just fine after 498 00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:08,720 Speaker 1: the first dose and the second the second dose, what 499 00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:11,199 Speaker 1: does the second dose do? I really haven't seen a 500 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:12,919 Speaker 1: good article on this. I mean, you know, in the 501 00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:16,000 Speaker 1: old days, folks, we had booster shots. Is that what 502 00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:19,520 Speaker 1: this is. It's just a booster really, it is essentially 503 00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:21,880 Speaker 1: acting like a booster shot, so to kind of the 504 00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:25,200 Speaker 1: initial ones kind of priming your immune system, your protective system, 505 00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:28,240 Speaker 1: and then the second dose UM kicks it up further 506 00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:32,400 Speaker 1: to hopefully get longer duration of protection, higher level of protection. 507 00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:35,760 Speaker 1: But with that we do see some more side effects 508 00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:39,560 Speaker 1: as far as arm paining, fevers, feeling kind of crummy, 509 00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:43,399 Speaker 1: especially in kind fifty five after that second shot. So 510 00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:46,040 Speaker 1: people just need to be prepared for that.
