00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:36,839
Speaker 1: at Comments Sexy And coming off the back of a

9
00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:39,040
Speaker 1: weekend where you actually cut the outlook for us crow,

10
00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:42,879
Speaker 1: so let's start there with y. We cut the outlook

11
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:47,360
Speaker 1: because there was there's been a very material tightening in

12
00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:50,720
Speaker 1: financial conditions over the last couple of months. All Financial

13
00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:54,160
Speaker 1: Conditions Index is up by more than two hundred basis

14
00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:57,880
Speaker 1: points from the end of two thousand and twenty twenty one,

15
00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:02,080
Speaker 1: and we think that that's going to keep growth below

16
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:05,520
Speaker 1: trend over the next several quarters. Over the next year

17
00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:08,240
Speaker 1: or so, so we're now looking for only one and

18
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:11,480
Speaker 1: a quarter percent growth this year on a fourth quarter

19
00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:13,920
Speaker 1: to the fourth quarter basis and then one and a

20
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:17,520
Speaker 1: half percent next year. And I think that's needed to

21
00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 1: create a little bit more capacity in the labor market,

22
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:27,720
Speaker 1: in particular alongside an improvement in labor force participation, because

23
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:31,400
Speaker 1: we have this huge gap between labor demand and labor supply.

24
00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:35,440
Speaker 1: We've got eleven and a half million open possessions and

25
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:38,640
Speaker 1: six million unemployed workers, and that gap needs to shrink.

26
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:41,720
Speaker 1: As share Powell has said, yeah, I want to talk.

27
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:43,720
Speaker 1: There's any ways to go here, but I do want

28
00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:46,280
Speaker 1: to talk about sub two percent g d P. And

29
00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:49,000
Speaker 1: one of the partitions here is domestic final sales, a

30
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:53,560
Speaker 1: review of the American economy versus export import dynamics on

31
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:56,160
Speaker 1: the other side, and your call exact Pandel then can

32
00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:59,200
Speaker 1: throw in dollar dynamics as well. Is your call a

33
00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:03,240
Speaker 1: foreign call or is it a domestical It's really a

34
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:08,359
Speaker 1: domestic call. Mostly that's the main driver here. I mean

35
00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:10,960
Speaker 1: first quarter, I had a lot of noise in the

36
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:13,320
Speaker 1: in the trade statistics. I think some of that is

37
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:18,079
Speaker 1: going to unravel, but I think it's really about higher

38
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:23,440
Speaker 1: interest rates, lower stock prices, somewhat wider credit spreads, and

39
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:26,480
Speaker 1: to some degree the appreciation of the dollar. But all

40
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 1: of those different drivers which are primarily going to impinge

41
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:35,359
Speaker 1: on domestic demand, slowing growth to a much lower pace.

42
00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:37,640
Speaker 1: Do you see any indications at this time at the

43
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:40,520
Speaker 1: labor economy is easy? Is it in the micro data

44
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:43,440
Speaker 1: that you look at every week? Not yet in the data, No.

45
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:47,440
Speaker 1: I think there are some signs in the more anecdotal reports,

46
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 1: company by company reports some of the tech firms scaling

47
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:55,400
Speaker 1: back hiring, lowering open positions. In the hard data that

48
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 1: get published by the Labor Department not yet. Yeah, And

49
00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:01,280
Speaker 1: how high does unemployment have to get to reach that

50
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 1: sort of spare capacity they're looking for the labor market?

51
00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:07,200
Speaker 1: I actually don't think that the unemployment rate has to

52
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:10,680
Speaker 1: rise a lot. What needs to happen, I think is

53
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:14,560
Speaker 1: that companies bring down open positions. So the path that

54
00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:18,720
Speaker 1: the FEDS tight targeting is to slow growth to a

55
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:24,200
Speaker 1: pace that is slow enough too for companies to shelve

56
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 1: some of their expansion plans and bring down some of

57
00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:30,520
Speaker 1: the open positions, but not so slow that you start

58
00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:34,240
Speaker 1: getting large numbers of layoffs. So we're expecting a little

59
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:36,800
Speaker 1: bit of an increase in the unemployment rate from the

60
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:39,640
Speaker 1: you know, three and a half percent range to the

61
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:43,080
Speaker 1: three and three quarter percent range, but not a large increase.

62
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,640
Speaker 1: Do you think that basically Michelle Meyer was correct when

63
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:49,000
Speaker 1: she was talking about the ability for consumers to lever

64
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:51,440
Speaker 1: up even if their incomes aren't keeping pace with the

65
00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:54,600
Speaker 1: with the inflation rate right now, and that basically the

66
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 1: FED has to go a lot faster even still, then

67
00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:00,680
Speaker 1: if then people seem to think in order to slow that,

68
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 1: otherwise we're going to get even more overheating. Well, I think,

69
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:08,040
Speaker 1: you know, borrowing is going to be a short term

70
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:11,880
Speaker 1: uh driver of spending, and I think has been to

71
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:14,600
Speaker 1: some degree. If you look at the consumer credit numbers

72
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:17,240
Speaker 1: over the last couple of months, there clearly has been

73
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:21,479
Speaker 1: some you know, re leveraging to some degree. But I

74
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:24,920
Speaker 1: don't think that that's going to be a lasting kind

75
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:29,159
Speaker 1: of uh, you know, support for for spending. So I

76
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:31,560
Speaker 1: think the sumer spending is going to be relatively slow.

77
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:35,239
Speaker 1: Income is going to be quite weak in two thousand

78
00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:38,560
Speaker 1: and twenty two. We're looking for only zero point five

79
00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:41,960
Speaker 1: percent real income growth on the fourth quarter to fourth

80
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 1: quarter basis on an annual average basis actually significantly weaker

81
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:47,960
Speaker 1: than that. But even on a Q four, the Q

82
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:50,360
Speaker 1: four basis only zero point five and I think that's

83
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:53,359
Speaker 1: going to keep spending pretty soft. Long on fair away

84
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:56,080
Speaker 1: there was Dudley and mclvy and this young whipper snapper

85
00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 1: from Germany. What was his name? I think it was

86
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:02,120
Speaker 1: heart serious is what it was. You codified emmy W

87
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:05,360
Speaker 1: mortgage would you withdraw? Let me cut to the chase yourn.

88
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:09,760
Speaker 1: When does the housing market break? Well, emmy W is

89
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:14,200
Speaker 1: actually a very important issue. Again, not as important, I

90
00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:17,280
Speaker 1: think as going into the oh eight crisis, but there

91
00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:20,080
Speaker 1: has been a pick up in mortgagee would you withdrawal

92
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:23,920
Speaker 1: over the last year, and you've got had this increase

93
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:28,120
Speaker 1: in consumer credit as well. You know, similar kind of dynamic.

94
00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:31,440
Speaker 1: This supports spending in the in the short term, but

95
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:35,400
Speaker 1: ultimately is not going to be a sustainable source of

96
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:39,360
Speaker 1: big increases in spending. So builds in a slowdown sort

97
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:41,560
Speaker 1: of down the road. And I think you know when

98
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:45,040
Speaker 1: the housing market slows, of course, is going to determine

99
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:49,120
Speaker 1: the timing of that. We haven't really seen significant slowing

100
00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:51,640
Speaker 1: in the in the part data yet. I do expect

101
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:56,520
Speaker 1: that mortgage rates up even more than ten. Treasure Pharaoh

102
00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:58,599
Speaker 1: wants to know should he buy in June or July.

103
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 1: I'm not going to give advice on that that I

104
00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:08,479
Speaker 1: think is probably not not don't worried that's too long

105
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,000
Speaker 1: term for you and it's finished here just quickly. What's

106
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:14,839
Speaker 1: the biggest risk right now to your view? Well, I

107
00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:18,679
Speaker 1: think the the FED is still trying to bring down

108
00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:24,279
Speaker 1: you know, slow slow the economy, slow employment, and bring

109
00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:28,159
Speaker 1: down open positions because they're still worried about inflation being

110
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:31,640
Speaker 1: too high and it will be well above target for

111
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:34,279
Speaker 1: the foreseeable future. I do think it's going to come down,

112
00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:38,480
Speaker 1: but if it doesn't come down quickly enough, we can see,

113
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:42,200
Speaker 1: you know, still significantly higher rates. Our call at the

114
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:45,120
Speaker 1: moment is three to three in a quarter percent for

115
00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:48,919
Speaker 1: the funds rate. We've stuck with that and it's you know,

116
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:51,479
Speaker 1: fairly close to market pricing. But I think the risk

117
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:55,000
Speaker 1: cases that you know, they have to do more, and

118
00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:58,760
Speaker 1: that then also raises the risk of a hard landing.

119
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,520
Speaker 1: Not our baseline, but that would be the rest of

120
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:04,599
Speaker 1: the upside. Wrist the rights clear in present. Yeah, thank you,

121
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:12,600
Speaker 1: as always, Saxon. We're thrilled to bring you now someone

122
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:17,880
Speaker 1: hardwired to the retail of America and particularly the aspiration

123
00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:21,040
Speaker 1: that all of us are guilty of. Dana Telsey, his

124
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:25,280
Speaker 1: chief executive officer chief research officer at Telsey advisory group

125
00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:28,400
Speaker 1: and lives in New York retail truly like no one

126
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:31,920
Speaker 1: I know. Dana. I was absolutely crushed at the price

127
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:36,680
Speaker 1: rise on the Selena hoodie sweatshirt the men's it's got

128
00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:39,080
Speaker 1: the Selene thing on it. I thought it should be

129
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:41,560
Speaker 1: in my closet. I mean there was. It was eight

130
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,400
Speaker 1: hundred bucks and all of a sudden, it's nine dollars.

131
00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:48,520
Speaker 1: Everything's going up in price, right it has. We're seeing

132
00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 1: price increases and Tom, thank you for having me. Price

133
00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:55,440
Speaker 1: increases across the board on many different categories, especially on

134
00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 1: luxury goods. The consumer is buying, and we're seeing a

135
00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:02,440
Speaker 1: wide range of rumors buying in terms of demographics and

136
00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:05,400
Speaker 1: age group. The brand matters and they find ways to

137
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:07,880
Speaker 1: pay for it. But what is so important here from

138
00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:11,200
Speaker 1: the days of you, I I bear Stearns, where you're doing,

139
00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:14,760
Speaker 1: you know, channel shops and going through Abercromie and Fitch,

140
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:18,760
Speaker 1: is the way we buy this stuff is fundamentally changed.

141
00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:22,880
Speaker 1: How important for you and Joe Feldman is a firm

142
00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 1: is PayPal credit? Is the access of get that Selene

143
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:31,480
Speaker 1: sweatshirt now and pay for it later. That sea change,

144
00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:34,960
Speaker 1: It is a sea change. It's very important and frankly

145
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:38,240
Speaker 1: it lifts the sales and also the companies are learning

146
00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:41,160
Speaker 1: what to produce because of the options that they have,

147
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:45,040
Speaker 1: both buying in store and buying online. The world today

148
00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:48,120
Speaker 1: is more integrated than it ever has and we're watching

149
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:52,439
Speaker 1: sell through, watching influences, We're watching Instagram in order to

150
00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:54,360
Speaker 1: pick up what are the trends that are going to

151
00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:56,880
Speaker 1: mean something on main street? So what are you expecting

152
00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:59,320
Speaker 1: right now in about ten minutes time? And these retail

153
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:02,599
Speaker 1: sales numbers, I mean I think April hopefully should be

154
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:04,800
Speaker 1: a little bit better. We saw gas prices come in

155
00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:07,640
Speaker 1: a little bit. We still have an environment, like was

156
00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:11,520
Speaker 1: mentioned earlier, a shift to services from goods. We're expecting

157
00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:14,640
Speaker 1: a big summer season and vacation. The other thing is

158
00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:17,240
Speaker 1: you have two point six million weddings occurring this year.

159
00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:20,680
Speaker 1: On average, people spend around four hundred thirty dollars every

160
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:22,880
Speaker 1: time they go to a wedding, so you'll still have

161
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:25,440
Speaker 1: some of that good spending. April should have been a

162
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:28,680
Speaker 1: little bit better. But inflation is a headwind and that

163
00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:32,120
Speaker 1: is in every aspect that companies are dealing with. Its

164
00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:34,520
Speaker 1: people change the way they pay for luxury goods. Do

165
00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:36,720
Speaker 1: we have to change the way we think about who's

166
00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:39,720
Speaker 1: shopping there. Typically we think of the high income earner

167
00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:42,600
Speaker 1: and the luxury goods, and those two are so closely tether.

168
00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:44,600
Speaker 1: I just wanted to Donna if that's changed now over

169
00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:47,000
Speaker 1: the last couple of years. I think it has. I

170
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:48,959
Speaker 1: think you've gotten the millennials and the gen z s,

171
00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:51,520
Speaker 1: and I think the brand awareness the collaborations that have

172
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:55,280
Speaker 1: been done is bring making these luxury brands younger and

173
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:58,880
Speaker 1: younger while still keeping the ethos and the interests of

174
00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:02,320
Speaker 1: the higher income down graphics. As interest rates go up,

175
00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:05,680
Speaker 1: can they maintain the buying? I see the lines outside

176
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:08,320
Speaker 1: of the luxury stores in Soho, we all do. We

177
00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:10,440
Speaker 1: could spot the average age in that line as well.

178
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:12,960
Speaker 1: What's gonna happen here does not look good as you

179
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:16,200
Speaker 1: look further forward. I mean, we need the Chinese to

180
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:19,559
Speaker 1: come back and spend Right now, you're seeing some tourism

181
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:22,400
Speaker 1: happen with Europeans coming to the US. Will need that

182
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:26,040
Speaker 1: Asian traveler. But the product innovation is key. We've seen

183
00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:29,079
Speaker 1: what demand can be when newness is out there. You've

184
00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:31,440
Speaker 1: seen it from LVMH with their brands. You look at

185
00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:34,680
Speaker 1: what's happening with Tiffany's you've seen what it's what's happening

186
00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:38,160
Speaker 1: with bolln Siaga. There there are luxury brands that matter

187
00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:41,160
Speaker 1: to these consumers. There's a bigger issue underpitting John's question.

188
00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:43,400
Speaker 1: It's an important one, which is at what point will

189
00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:47,120
Speaker 1: higher borrowing costs really matter, especially as more consumers do

190
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:49,520
Speaker 1: start to level up in order to keep their purchasing

191
00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:52,400
Speaker 1: at the same levels as before inflation took off to

192
00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:55,240
Speaker 1: the way that it is now. I think overall, the

193
00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:58,760
Speaker 1: lower income consumer at the lower end, obviously they're struggling.

194
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:02,240
Speaker 1: The middle income can summer continues to get some higher wages,

195
00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:05,840
Speaker 1: and those wages are allocated. It may not be allocated

196
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:09,400
Speaker 1: to goods, but allocated to services above that mid tiers.

197
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:12,320
Speaker 1: The question mark if there's a pullback given what debt

198
00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:16,080
Speaker 1: levels could look like. Dana, your thoughts, thoughts and Joe

199
00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:19,240
Speaker 1: Filman's work on Amazon has been great, but I'm gonna

200
00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:22,720
Speaker 1: editorialize and say Amazon has been a train wreck your

201
00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:26,400
Speaker 1: thoughts and now they turn it around. I mean, there's

202
00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:29,360
Speaker 1: work to be done there and Amazon. The narrative that

203
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:31,720
Speaker 1: was two and three years ago that Amazon is going

204
00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:34,880
Speaker 1: to take over a retail and the consumer spend isn't there.

205
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:38,160
Speaker 1: It definitely cost more to be able to shift than

206
00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:43,720
Speaker 1: ever before. Everyone basically expected what was happening online sales

207
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:46,440
Speaker 1: to continue the growth, and we're seeing that shift now.

208
00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:49,000
Speaker 1: We're seeing the shift of a return to stores from

209
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:53,079
Speaker 1: digital sales. That's helping the physical store retailer. And frankly,

210
00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:56,480
Speaker 1: digital sales are moderating, and that Sianca is a brand.

211
00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:59,560
Speaker 1: I just don't get t k. What is a Cianca about?

212
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:05,480
Speaker 1: You know, to be honest, I just but you know,

213
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:07,920
Speaker 1: on data will be dazzled by this. I actually watched

214
00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:12,360
Speaker 1: a little short video on the Guide Balanceaga that he went.

215
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:15,040
Speaker 1: He went bankrupt like three times, and every time he

216
00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:19,160
Speaker 1: came out he revolutionized what he did out of Spain

217
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:22,960
Speaker 1: and it was with always with drama, John and I

218
00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:25,120
Speaker 1: guess that's what it is. I don't get it, Dana.

219
00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:27,640
Speaker 1: I'm convinced that in a few years time they come

220
00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:30,199
Speaker 1: out of the head office and say, got you. This

221
00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:32,520
Speaker 1: was all a joke, but you bought it anyway. I

222
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:35,560
Speaker 1: just don't get it. I think one of the things

223
00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:37,760
Speaker 1: they do, you can go buy their windows like I

224
00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:40,880
Speaker 1: did last night. They're putting things in their windows that

225
00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:45,920
Speaker 1: whether it's big inflated balloons in the in the look

226
00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:49,120
Speaker 1: of a person, they're basically creating that something you need

227
00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:52,319
Speaker 1: to see. And frankly, there's a difference between heritage and

228
00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:55,200
Speaker 1: authentic luxury, like what you have with the quality of

229
00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:57,839
Speaker 1: the goods at our mez, and there's a difference with

230
00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:02,120
Speaker 1: what's happening now that is in demand because of limited supply.

231
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:04,760
Speaker 1: That's what some of the brands. Dana, what does your

232
00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:08,920
Speaker 1: universe do when we come off China lockdown? Uh, the

233
00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:12,679
Speaker 1: luxury goods universe will do very well. But also don't

234
00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:17,040
Speaker 1: forget what China supplies. Every manufacturer is looking to diversify

235
00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:20,440
Speaker 1: their supply and being able to get the goods is key, brilliant,

236
00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:25,559
Speaker 1: thank you, awesome advantag Do you know that the sweatshirts

237
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:27,800
Speaker 1: I thought, if you bought a luxury sweatshirt that didn't

238
00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:31,079
Speaker 1: shrink in the wash, I guess you got to watch

239
00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:33,720
Speaker 1: out for tom as if the other half takes set

240
00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:37,679
Speaker 1: sweatshirt and shrinks it deliberately so that they can wear it.

241
00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:40,440
Speaker 1: To bet the idea that women spend so much more

242
00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:46,160
Speaker 1: than men, I mean, that's typically the stereotype. It's going

243
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:48,040
Speaker 1: to paint out that's exactly right. I just want to

244
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:56,280
Speaker 1: make that very clear now joining us, and this is

245
00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:59,480
Speaker 1: a really important conversation for you on radio and television

246
00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:03,000
Speaker 1: because Sky Clemens, with thirty plus years of Brown Brothers

247
00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:07,960
Speaker 1: hareman synthesizes in all the eco babble into the market

248
00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:12,400
Speaker 1: strategy and your foundation, Scott Clemens, is everybody calm down

249
00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:16,440
Speaker 1: about inflation? If you're brief and Chairman Powell today in

250
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:19,480
Speaker 1: the forty seven other FED speakers, how do you tell

251
00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:24,200
Speaker 1: them to calm down about inflation? Um, I think it

252
00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:28,680
Speaker 1: pays to be a simple minded economist given all of

253
00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:30,840
Speaker 1: the moving parts that you've laid out here. At the

254
00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:33,800
Speaker 1: top of the hour, I would remind the FED. Far

255
00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:35,640
Speaker 1: be it for me to lecture the FED, but I

256
00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:37,880
Speaker 1: would remind the FED that the price of everything, in

257
00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:41,040
Speaker 1: the price of anything, is simply the interaction of supply

258
00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:43,800
Speaker 1: and demand, and that the FED has an ability to

259
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:47,960
Speaker 1: influence demand through monetary policy, but the FED does not

260
00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:51,560
Speaker 1: have the ability to influence supply. So to the degree

261
00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:56,240
Speaker 1: that lingering inflation is a result of lingering supply chain disruptions,

262
00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:59,240
Speaker 1: the FED should not get over eager and raise interest

263
00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:01,960
Speaker 1: rates too much. Much to try to choke off inflation

264
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 1: that ends up not being demand driven to begin with.

265
00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:06,960
Speaker 1: I think that's the story for inflation and the FED

266
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:09,000
Speaker 1: for the balance of this year. Let's talk about the

267
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:11,840
Speaker 1: story for this market. MARKA. Kolanovich of JP Mulgan and

268
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:14,400
Speaker 1: the investment banks saying we're pricing in too much recession

269
00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:16,800
Speaker 1: risk just two pound question one to agree and to

270
00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:20,720
Speaker 1: how do you measure that? I think that's right. I

271
00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:23,080
Speaker 1: think the market is too pessimistic about the risk of

272
00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:26,080
Speaker 1: inflation in an environment where we're adding jobs and roughly

273
00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:29,120
Speaker 1: let's call it half a million jobs a month, net

274
00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:33,200
Speaker 1: wages arising. Combined those things together, keeping in mind of

275
00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:36,760
Speaker 1: personal consumption is sixty percent of GDP going to twenty

276
00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:39,360
Speaker 1: three twenty four. Yeah, there's a recession out there somewhere,

277
00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:41,080
Speaker 1: but I don't see that in the near term. The

278
00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:44,160
Speaker 1: background was just too strong. Where I think the confusion

279
00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:47,160
Speaker 1: or the anxiety arises is we're still in the midst

280
00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:51,760
Speaker 1: of this transition of economic leadership away from the policy

281
00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:54,600
Speaker 1: support of easy monetary policy and a lot of fiscal

282
00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:57,920
Speaker 1: spending twelve eighteen, twenty four months ago, back to a

283
00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:02,280
Speaker 1: more normal driver of economic active that's naturally anxiety inducing.

284
00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:04,040
Speaker 1: I get it, but I think people are looking at

285
00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:06,280
Speaker 1: the glasses being half empty. There are a lot of

286
00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:08,600
Speaker 1: half full notions out there as well. Well. Are have

287
00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:11,160
Speaker 1: full notion something that would encourage the Fed to hike

288
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:13,680
Speaker 1: further leading to half empty? And I know this sounds

289
00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:15,800
Speaker 1: like a paradise, a parody of what it is to

290
00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:17,880
Speaker 1: be gloomy, but honestly, this is what a lot of

291
00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:20,720
Speaker 1: people are thinking. That the momentum that we're seeing in

292
00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:23,160
Speaker 1: a lot of the economic data is a bad thing

293
00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:25,320
Speaker 1: because it means the FED has to do more. What

294
00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:29,680
Speaker 1: do you say to counter that? Well, at least I

295
00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:31,920
Speaker 1: think the answer to that is what's really important. And

296
00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:33,600
Speaker 1: this is a subtle nuance, but I think this is

297
00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:36,200
Speaker 1: the source of a lot of the volatility and financial markets.

298
00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:39,280
Speaker 1: The important thing is not that the Fed is raising

299
00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:42,920
Speaker 1: interest rates, but why they're raising interest rates. And admittedly

300
00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:45,640
Speaker 1: that's very subjective, but if the Fed, on one hand,

301
00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:48,520
Speaker 1: is raising interest rates out of growing confidence that this

302
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:51,880
Speaker 1: transition and leadership is taking place, that's a pretty benign

303
00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:54,680
Speaker 1: and even supportive outcome. If, on the other hand, the

304
00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:57,720
Speaker 1: market concludes that inflation is running away and the FED

305
00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:01,120
Speaker 1: is playing catch up. That's a very just up to outcome,

306
00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:03,520
Speaker 1: and I think the push and pull between those two

307
00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:07,000
Speaker 1: notions is what drives market volatility, not just day to day,

308
00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:10,320
Speaker 1: but sometimes even hour to hour. We've we've all seen

309
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:13,120
Speaker 1: these days in which the market opens strongly and closes

310
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:17,040
Speaker 1: in the red or vice versa. Hopefully today's opening polls,

311
00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:19,120
Speaker 1: but I think that's likely to continue for some time

312
00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:21,240
Speaker 1: to come. We're telling our clients to get used to

313
00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:24,159
Speaker 1: the kind of intra day volatility that has characterized the

314
00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:26,480
Speaker 1: beginning of this year. It's not gonna go away anytime soon.

315
00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:30,359
Speaker 1: So given that, where's your highest conviction right now, Scott Well,

316
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:33,120
Speaker 1: With the rise in interest rates, we've begun allocating capital

317
00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:35,960
Speaker 1: into traditional fixed income for the first time close to

318
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:38,720
Speaker 1: a decade. For our clients at Brown withs Harim and

319
00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:43,160
Speaker 1: taxable clients, remmisciple bonds are are offering a better trade

320
00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:45,000
Speaker 1: off of risk and return than we've seen in quite

321
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:49,720
Speaker 1: some time. Beyond that, the carnage in equity markets has

322
00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:52,760
Speaker 1: left a lot to find. I take a very simple

323
00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:54,959
Speaker 1: measure and look at the percentage of stocks in an

324
00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:58,359
Speaker 1: index trading below their fifty day moving average as of

325
00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:01,680
Speaker 1: last night's close. Seventy eight percent of the SMP was

326
00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:05,840
Speaker 1: below it's fifty day moving average. Of the Russell two

327
00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:10,720
Speaker 1: thousand and nine point nine five percent of the NASTAC

328
00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:13,399
Speaker 1: is trading below it's fifty day moving average. That doesn't

329
00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:15,439
Speaker 1: mean that everything is cheap, but it certainly means that

330
00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:18,040
Speaker 1: among that carnage there are plenty of good trade offs

331
00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:20,640
Speaker 1: of risk and return. Scott, let's think positive. Let's say

332
00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:23,960
Speaker 1: you go down in flames with your inflation call. Instead

333
00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:28,880
Speaker 1: of getting two to three percent inflation, you fail, you're wrong,

334
00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:32,320
Speaker 1: and we get four point two percent inflation by the

335
00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:35,600
Speaker 1: end of the year. That is a c change from

336
00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:38,560
Speaker 1: where we are right now. What does the stock market

337
00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:43,520
Speaker 1: do if Clemens is wrong? That's probably more disruptive for

338
00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:46,000
Speaker 1: the stock market if Clemens turns out to be wrong.

339
00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:48,840
Speaker 1: I think, though, at the same time, the trajectory of

340
00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:51,960
Speaker 1: inflation is important. If at the end of this year

341
00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:54,200
Speaker 1: the inflation number still starts with the four but we're

342
00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:56,920
Speaker 1: headed in the right direction, that's different. In that environment,

343
00:18:56,960 --> 00:18:59,280
Speaker 1: I would want to own companies that have pricing power,

344
00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:03,840
Speaker 1: companies that passed through those higher input costs to their

345
00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:07,720
Speaker 1: end customers. That that tends to be associated with brand, loyalty,

346
00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:11,199
Speaker 1: essential products and services, repeat customers, all the kinds of

347
00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:15,080
Speaker 1: quality markers of a company. Not that they're immune from

348
00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:17,520
Speaker 1: an inflationary environment like that, but there are a lot

349
00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:20,360
Speaker 1: more resistant to it. Right to catch up, scill as

350
00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:23,040
Speaker 1: always a different perspective of things at the moment, skilled

351
00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:29,800
Speaker 1: climates at Brand brother Sentiment. Right now, we are all

352
00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:33,520
Speaker 1: aware it is yield up and price down. That is

353
00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:36,600
Speaker 1: the mix, the toxic mix for something rare in the

354
00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:39,720
Speaker 1: last decades, a bond bear market. When you Seesar's living,

355
00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:42,840
Speaker 1: this is global head of strategy at Credit Sites and

356
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:45,359
Speaker 1: she knows, well, you can talk about spreads and you

357
00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:49,280
Speaker 1: can analyze loans in different categories and the answer is

358
00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:52,000
Speaker 1: prices down. And she joins us this morning, I want

359
00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:55,680
Speaker 1: to look at the Bloomberg Total Aggregate Index, Total Return Aggregate,

360
00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:58,840
Speaker 1: Full Faith and Credit Index, and the answer is we're

361
00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:03,360
Speaker 1: down twelve ice seven percent. Analyze. Can you state it's

362
00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:06,119
Speaker 1: a bond bear market? It feels like we're in a

363
00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:08,560
Speaker 1: bond bear market. And from talking to the credit investors

364
00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:10,560
Speaker 1: that I speak to on a regular basis, they are

365
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:14,119
Speaker 1: certainly seeing a lot of signs of kind of continuing negativity.

366
00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:16,840
Speaker 1: Don't fight the FED is definitely the mantra in the

367
00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:19,560
Speaker 1: bond market, and the FED seems to be on a

368
00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:23,040
Speaker 1: very hawkish course to continue to high rates. That being said,

369
00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:26,280
Speaker 1: there are some signs of kind of constructive positivity on

370
00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:29,520
Speaker 1: on the credit market side of things. Well, no, but

371
00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:33,040
Speaker 1: in the equity market, I clawback on growth, I called

372
00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:36,640
Speaker 1: clawback on use of cash. How do you claw back

373
00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:40,040
Speaker 1: from a twelve percent loss? Frankly, and I g it

374
00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:44,159
Speaker 1: could be an eight percent loss? What's the strategy to

375
00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:48,000
Speaker 1: clawback in fixed income? So in fixed income, we've had

376
00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:50,679
Speaker 1: two phases of the sell off. First, it was all duration.

377
00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:54,480
Speaker 1: We saw higher rated, longer duration assets sell off as

378
00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:57,679
Speaker 1: we saw that big sensitivity to the moving yields. Now

379
00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:00,840
Speaker 1: with everybody very concerned about growth or moving into the

380
00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:03,240
Speaker 1: credit risk phase of the sell off, and this means

381
00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:05,400
Speaker 1: you have to be very selective in terms of where

382
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:08,639
Speaker 1: you are positioning your risk, and that is actually a

383
00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:11,480
Speaker 1: very good sign for these dedicated credit investors who have

384
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:14,919
Speaker 1: longer term views and longer term mandates rather than kind

385
00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:17,159
Speaker 1: of a three to six month time horizon like we

386
00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:19,320
Speaker 1: usually see in the equity market, when you with about

387
00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:21,520
Speaker 1: an hour ago before we get retail sales. When you

388
00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:25,199
Speaker 1: take a look at the corporate fundamentals, which sectors are

389
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:27,760
Speaker 1: starting to feel the biggest hit from some of the

390
00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:30,720
Speaker 1: weakness that at least we saw in Walmart, if not beyond.

391
00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:33,879
Speaker 1: So we're definitely seeing a shift away from some of

392
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:38,200
Speaker 1: the COVID pandemic darlings, some of the consumer staples and

393
00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:41,879
Speaker 1: retails side of things. But we are also seeing a

394
00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:46,320
Speaker 1: continued improvement in energy fundamentals. While we might not hold

395
00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:50,280
Speaker 1: energy prices where they currently are, the levels are still

396
00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:54,119
Speaker 1: going to be quite strong for cash flow and credit investors.

397
00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:57,920
Speaker 1: And we're also seeing some idiosyncredit risk in some sectors,

398
00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:00,919
Speaker 1: things like high yield healthcare and how yield telecom. We're

399
00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:03,880
Speaker 1: seeing some single name stories that are really driving outside

400
00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:06,399
Speaker 1: spread widening in those specific sectors. They're sort of an

401
00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:10,439
Speaker 1: existential question facing credit right now. Yes, borrowing costs are

402
00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:12,960
Speaker 1: a lot higher, but companies don't really have to borrow.

403
00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:15,240
Speaker 1: And if they don't have to borrow, does it matter, right,

404
00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:17,360
Speaker 1: I mean, does it actually affect their bottom line? When

405
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:20,600
Speaker 1: do companies have to start borrowing again and actually locking

406
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:23,680
Speaker 1: in these yields that are incredibly high relative to where

407
00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:25,960
Speaker 1: they were a year ago. That's a great point, Lisa,

408
00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:28,520
Speaker 1: and I would also say the yields are high relative

409
00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:31,119
Speaker 1: to one year ago, but let's not forget that one

410
00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:34,359
Speaker 1: year ago was the absolute rock bottom for borrowing costs,

411
00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:37,240
Speaker 1: a level that we're probably not going to see again,

412
00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:40,560
Speaker 1: at least for a long period of time. And so

413
00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:42,840
Speaker 1: even if borrowing costs have moved up by call it

414
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,280
Speaker 1: a hundred a hundred and fifty basis points in investment

415
00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:48,320
Speaker 1: grade from a long term perspective, that is still a

416
00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:51,480
Speaker 1: very low level of borrowing costs. And in fact, the

417
00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:54,080
Speaker 1: amount of no issue that we've seen this year has

418
00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:56,840
Speaker 1: been quite robust because a lot of companies are looking

419
00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:59,760
Speaker 1: at those current borrowing costs and saying, well, you know,

420
00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:02,440
Speaker 1: the is actually still not a terrible time to be

421
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:06,560
Speaker 1: um continuing to add to the balance sheet, continuing to

422
00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:10,480
Speaker 1: refinance transactions. And then in the high yield market, that's

423
00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:13,240
Speaker 1: where we've seen the most liability management, really giving a

424
00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:16,960
Speaker 1: lot of these issuers a reprieve from having to go

425
00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:20,080
Speaker 1: to the capital markets. And we probably have another twelve

426
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:23,120
Speaker 1: to twenty four months before there's really a lot of urgency,

427
00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:25,919
Speaker 1: especially for the higher rated parts of the high yield market.

428
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:29,040
Speaker 1: The double b issuers when this presents a real issue

429
00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:30,680
Speaker 1: for the FED. And we were talking about this on

430
00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:34,200
Speaker 1: the consumer side with with Michelle Meyer of master Card.

431
00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:37,040
Speaker 1: But if a lot of these companies are immune to

432
00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:40,080
Speaker 1: more substantial FED rate hikes at least at a financing level,

433
00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:43,560
Speaker 1: how high can the FED raise rates before presents a

434
00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:46,400
Speaker 1: credit issue. So I think that the way the FED

435
00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:50,320
Speaker 1: looks at the credit markets is functioning of capital markets.

436
00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:53,879
Speaker 1: Are deals pricing is their investor demand, And for the

437
00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:57,439
Speaker 1: investment grade market in particular, deals are still pricing, albeit

438
00:23:57,440 --> 00:24:00,800
Speaker 1: at pretty steep new issue concensions relative to last year,

439
00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:03,439
Speaker 1: and order books have been relatively solid. So I think

440
00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:06,480
Speaker 1: the FED is looking at the investment grade market and saying,

441
00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:09,960
Speaker 1: there are clearly some technical challenges going on in this market,

442
00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:13,440
Speaker 1: but from a borrowing perspective and pure liquidity flowing, we

443
00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:16,399
Speaker 1: can continue to hike rates. Now we're in kind of

444
00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:19,000
Speaker 1: the approach to the danger zone a hundred and fifty

445
00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:21,560
Speaker 1: basis points of spread. You usually don't hold that for

446
00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:23,840
Speaker 1: very long in the i G market. Either you break

447
00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:25,600
Speaker 1: one way or the other. And if you break to

448
00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:27,560
Speaker 1: two hundred, that's when the FED has to take a

449
00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:29,919
Speaker 1: little bit of a pause. And say our capital markets

450
00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:33,240
Speaker 1: still functioning when he want when he says to that

451
00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:37,160
