00:00:05,120 --> 00:00:09,200
Speaker 1: Welcome to the Bloomberg Surveillance Podcast. I'm Tom Keane. Along

2
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:13,200
Speaker 1: with Jonathan Ferrell and Lisa Abramowitz. Daily we bring you

3
00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:18,600
Speaker 1: insight from the best and economics, finance, investment, and international relations.

4
00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:23,799
Speaker 1: Find Bloomberg Surveillance on Apple, podcast, SoundCloud, Bloomberg dot Com,

5
00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:29,280
Speaker 1: and of course on the Bloomberg terminal. He has been

6
00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:32,879
Speaker 1: fabulous out front on the slowdown in GDP. Matthew Lazetti

7
00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:35,320
Speaker 1: joins us with Deutsche Bank with one of the great

8
00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:38,480
Speaker 1: calls of two thousand twenty three or recession. But it's

9
00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:40,360
Speaker 1: out there, son there. I've got to ask you your

10
00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:44,960
Speaker 1: arch call. How have you recalibrated your recession call? And

11
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:49,440
Speaker 1: how do you recalibrate after this inflation report today? Sure? First,

12
00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:51,720
Speaker 1: thanks so much for having me, Uh, no doubt. You know,

13
00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:53,440
Speaker 1: you look at the headline numbers, you look at core

14
00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:57,440
Speaker 1: better than expected decelerations in a in a number of items.

15
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:00,640
Speaker 1: I think, interestingly we didn't mention it yet, but rent

16
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:03,360
Speaker 1: to know we are were actually strong. They rebounded, uh

17
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:05,959
Speaker 1: and bounce back up point eight point seven percent. Those

18
00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:07,720
Speaker 1: are the sticky items we know we're going to be there.

19
00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:10,160
Speaker 1: I think in terms of you know, the market certainly

20
00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:11,800
Speaker 1: doesn't look at nuance at this point, and I think

21
00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:14,720
Speaker 1: rightfully so because it's at a lower print. But if

22
00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:16,640
Speaker 1: you think about some of the nuances here we u

23
00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:20,119
Speaker 1: Mike mentioned you have medical services inflation in the CPI

24
00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:22,840
Speaker 1: very very weak. That's something that sticks with with us

25
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:24,720
Speaker 1: throughout the rest of the year. But it's a completely

26
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:27,199
Speaker 1: different story in PC and so I think a big

27
00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:30,160
Speaker 1: question and kind of story over the next year will

28
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:33,200
Speaker 1: be PC and cp I are going to converge a lot. Uh,

29
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:35,280
Speaker 1: They're converge a lot because you have different measures of

30
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:37,840
Speaker 1: health care inflation in the two of those, and you're

31
00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:39,880
Speaker 1: gonna se disinflation in both of them, but it's gonna

32
00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:42,160
Speaker 1: be less disinflation in the metric that the FED looks

33
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:43,920
Speaker 1: at and the and the metric that the FED targets.

34
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:47,800
Speaker 1: How do you think Cham and Pound aviogates this one tomorrow? Uh,

35
00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:50,200
Speaker 1: you know, it's it's one where obviously they can step

36
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:52,560
Speaker 1: down to fifty basis points. I really do think that

37
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:54,360
Speaker 1: they want to step down to twenty five basis points

38
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:57,160
Speaker 1: as quickly as they can, and so data of this

39
00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:00,000
Speaker 1: nature allows them likely to do that. In the February meeting.

40
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 1: If we get another data point like this, and that

41
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 1: really then allows them to calibrate policy the best that

42
00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:06,680
Speaker 1: they can. If there is a path to US soft landing,

43
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,480
Speaker 1: going to down to bass points in February helps to

44
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:11,760
Speaker 1: optimize that. I think they also want to avoid this

45
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:14,560
Speaker 1: kind of stop start tightening cycle that they may have

46
00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 1: to do, meaning pause only to rehike at some point.

47
00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:19,520
Speaker 1: I think they can avoid that the best by stepping

48
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:21,520
Speaker 1: down to twenty basis points at the February winning this

49
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:23,440
Speaker 1: type of data helps that well. Although I do want

50
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:24,919
Speaker 1: to go to nil Dot's point because it is a

51
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:28,160
Speaker 1: salient one that this essentially gives people more money on

52
00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 1: a real term, on a real basis in order to

53
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:35,200
Speaker 1: spend further, which only prolongs this economic cycle for longer.

54
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:37,959
Speaker 1: How do you factor that into the flip side the

55
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,440
Speaker 1: bullet case, which is saying that there is this natural

56
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:44,280
Speaker 1: disinflationary cycle that is taking hold and set to accelerate. Yeah,

57
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:45,560
Speaker 1: and I think it's best to to think of that

58
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:48,280
Speaker 1: through chair PILs three different components that in the basket.

59
00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:51,400
Speaker 1: You know, we're seeing very clearly core goods and disinflation

60
00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:53,720
Speaker 1: and deflation coming in, you know, Rent and know we

61
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:55,920
Speaker 1: are we think twelve months ahead, given private rents are

62
00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:58,560
Speaker 1: really going to be decelerating. It's that third part of

63
00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:00,400
Speaker 1: the basket that creates a lot of uncertain DAN is

64
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:02,560
Speaker 1: tied to the labor market and wage growth, and there

65
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:06,040
Speaker 1: I think core services X shelter where we're likely to

66
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 1: see in healthcare and these other components as we look ahead.

67
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:10,960
Speaker 1: If you're not seeing demand destruction as much as the

68
00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:14,120
Speaker 1: FED needs, if you're seeing financial conditions ease substantially on

69
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:16,800
Speaker 1: these data, it does make their job harder. On that

70
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:18,360
Speaker 1: part of the basket. We can still see a lot

71
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:20,920
Speaker 1: of disinflation, but the question is does that get us

72
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:22,679
Speaker 1: simply from where we are to three percent? How do

73
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 1: we get from three percent to two percent? And that's

74
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:25,959
Speaker 1: I think the more difficult part. I think on number

75
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,720
Speaker 1: one question for cham and Pounds tomorrow, the risk of

76
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:30,679
Speaker 1: doing too little? Does it still out why the risk

77
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:32,960
Speaker 1: of doing too much? How do you think he answers

78
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:38,080
Speaker 1: that tomorrow? I think he's still leans towards yes, meaning

79
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:42,240
Speaker 1: that they still want to lean towards overtightening rather than undertightening.

80
00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:44,520
Speaker 1: But I think the committee is very divided on that

81
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:46,960
Speaker 1: that question um and I think he will have to

82
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 1: balance that, and the more data we get of this nature,

83
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 1: certainly that the risk balance comes comes into better balance

84
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:55,240
Speaker 1: as we look ahead, you know, stepping back, it's two

85
00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 1: data points. We're still at above course c P. I uh.

86
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:01,200
Speaker 1: They've been harised a few times in the past, and

87
00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:02,920
Speaker 1: so I think that they will be very cautious about

88
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:04,840
Speaker 1: pulling the PUG. I think that's why I'm far more

89
00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:08,160
Speaker 1: interesting Tom in the risk management question for Chairman Poal.

90
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,000
Speaker 1: You brought, agree with Max, a couple of months of data.

91
00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:13,560
Speaker 1: We'll get the projections for whatever they're worth. But ultimately

92
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:16,320
Speaker 1: the risk management question tells you a little something actually

93
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:18,320
Speaker 1: about the bus of this FED going forward. I agree,

94
00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:21,520
Speaker 1: And I had fold into that another phrase financial stability,

95
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:24,080
Speaker 1: which has really slipped away in the dialogue the last

96
00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:27,240
Speaker 1: number of weeks. It was their big particularly the I

97
00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 1: m F perhaps on the SMPS back at four k, right,

98
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:33,800
Speaker 1: people aren't so worried about financial stability. Apparently we want

99
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:35,480
Speaker 1: to see it. I mean, we've got to continue to

100
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:37,960
Speaker 1: answer John, are we threw highs yet in this recovery

101
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,839
Speaker 1: and we went up and we pulled back, But I

102
00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:42,440
Speaker 1: mean there's still a move from more than two percent

103
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:46,760
Speaker 1: on sp it's a party. Move yelds down by fourteen

104
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:48,920
Speaker 1: or fifteen basis points right the way through the curve.

105
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:51,200
Speaker 1: Two's out to tens and that dollar witness and make

106
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:54,760
Speaker 1: sure wrote dollar one six thirty four and big deal.

107
00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:57,640
Speaker 1: I've got my cat ready to go to John. Very

108
00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:01,479
Speaker 1: good to get to am as well, Matthew Lozetti of

109
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:05,560
Speaker 1: Deutsche Bank. Thank you so uh this is important. Now

110
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:08,560
Speaker 1: we need to get an equity update as well. John,

111
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 1: do you want to tell us about the nine o'clock

112
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:12,680
Speaker 1: and something about moving on? Well, I want to move on,

113
00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:18,080
Speaker 1: but you know I'm not focused on Croatia beat Argentina

114
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:20,640
Speaker 1: with the new slow that we had to shocked. I

115
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:22,560
Speaker 1: mean Troy guy asked his only book because you want

116
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:25,039
Speaker 1: to talk World Cup soccer with him? Does have a

117
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,880
Speaker 1: chance of Mark and Stanley. That's the tastes it. Troy's

118
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:31,320
Speaker 1: here to talk football, FS investments, Matt hornback to talk

119
00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:34,440
Speaker 1: about what he's here for football Stanley. Gary Chattery has

120

Speaker 1: given us the preview for tomorrow France. Yeah, big fan.

121
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:40,160
Speaker 1: Looking forward to that conversation and the next time I'm

126
00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:03,120
Speaker 1: leave us. Wonderful this CoA have a chance. The answer

127
00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:05,159
Speaker 1: is yes, of course they have a chance. Look what

128
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:08,280
Speaker 1: they did to Brazil. Okay, okay, that's a final word

129
00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:21,080
Speaker 1: here we get lucky this morning. Joanna us around the table.

130
00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:25,320
Speaker 1: Julian Emmanuel, the chief equity strategistic ever Core Si. Julian,

131
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:28,320
Speaker 1: good morning, good morning. We haven't had the cathartic moment

132
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:31,000
Speaker 1: according to you that the low earlier on this year

133
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:33,520
Speaker 1: is a low, not v low of this bear market.

134
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:37,680
Speaker 1: Why look, if you look at past bear markets, there

135
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:40,120
Speaker 1: is always that moment, and even in the sort of

136
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:43,960
Speaker 1: strange ones like the fourth quarter of ofen when we

137
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:47,000
Speaker 1: were in that you know, three month de grossing bear market,

138
00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:50,040
Speaker 1: you still had a cathartic moment where people just said

139
00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:54,160
Speaker 1: get me out um. And essentially that kind of selling

140
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:57,920
Speaker 1: pressure really creates the buying opportunity. And for us, when

141
00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:01,960
Speaker 1: you look at two, yes, fatility has remained elevated and

142
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,680
Speaker 1: we have strangeness going on this week with the Vicks

143
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:08,039
Speaker 1: climbing as the market has climbed, but you have not

144
00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 1: had that moment of pat There really has been very

145
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:13,640
Speaker 1: little emotion in this two questions. What's a vixed level

146
00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:16,480
Speaker 1: you need to see? It's not forty, is it? Uh?

147
00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:21,880
Speaker 1: Ultimately will be cool. Everybody wants to know when you're

148
00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 1: sitting at that little table that that ed Hyman's got

149
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:27,640
Speaker 1: with a black pen. How you link the Emmanuel world

150
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:30,120
Speaker 1: into the ed Hyman world? You do it? In your

151
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:33,920
Speaker 1: note is ad alludes back to the seventies, the forties

152
00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:37,160
Speaker 1: and the thirties. How is this inflation in this moment

153
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:40,200
Speaker 1: in the next year allude back to those troubled times.

154
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:43,400
Speaker 1: So it is very clear on this and and we

155
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:47,040
Speaker 1: we certainly agree wholeheartedly this is not the nineties seventies.

156
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:51,160
Speaker 1: The metastasizing effect of inflation uh at that we had

157
00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:54,200
Speaker 1: for an entire decade is not there. Uh you know,

158
00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:57,520
Speaker 1: clearly we've had these problems. However, we're on the other

159
00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:00,120
Speaker 1: side of it. We're seeing these readings start to come in.

160
00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 1: But the other aspect of it, thinking about the nineteen

161
00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:07,640
Speaker 1: thirties and the es and actually en seventy itself, is

162
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:11,640
Speaker 1: this decline in in money supply. M two going negative.

163
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:16,000
Speaker 1: That's a risk that the FED might have to step

164
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:20,440
Speaker 1: back and reassess. Just do you understand that so ce

165
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:22,920
Speaker 1: J Lawrence. I mean you're taking head back to see J.

166
00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:25,600
Speaker 1: Lawrence when we go into him three m. This Well,

167
00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:29,920
Speaker 1: it's look that Thursday afternoon release of the money supply

168
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:34,040
Speaker 1: was world stopped. Absolutely. What's going to lead the equity

169
00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:37,040
Speaker 1: index is lower at this point, given that big tech

170
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:42,800
Speaker 1: has already sold off disproportionately, we think that story has

171
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:46,080
Speaker 1: more to be written. If you look at it value

172
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:50,680
Speaker 1: versus growth. The extremes are certainly less extreme after the

173
00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:53,880
Speaker 1: year that we've had of growth under performance, but there

174
00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:59,320
Speaker 1: is still really an embedded passion for let's say, fang

175
00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:03,280
Speaker 1: uh amongst the part of the public whose equity holdings

176
00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:07,199
Speaker 1: remain near all time highs as a percentage of household

177
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:09,160
Speaker 1: net worth, and we think that is going to be

178
00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:12,680
Speaker 1: worked off in certainly the first six months or so.

179
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,719
Speaker 1: Can we talk about consensus just briefly. You published a

180
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:17,880
Speaker 1: little bit later in the year you white it. You

181
00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:19,720
Speaker 1: white it, you published, and it sounds a lot like

182
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:22,120
Speaker 1: what we've heard already, which is next year dip and

183
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:25,480
Speaker 1: then we rip when we end the year at that's

184
00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 1: the call from ever coot Julian. How do you feel

185
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:30,880
Speaker 1: when everyone sank the same thing about a year ahead?

186
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:35,560
Speaker 1: Very uncomfortable, very no bones about it. And I will

187
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:39,960
Speaker 1: say that the most bullish thing about the set up

188
00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:43,480
Speaker 1: right now is the fact that my competition on the

189
00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:47,640
Speaker 1: strategy side, the average price target is four thousand. Okay,

190
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:50,839
Speaker 1: And you know I am not a raging bull by

191
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:53,240
Speaker 1: having a last time we were forecast in a flat

192
00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:57,000
Speaker 1: market rent. I don't remember it. I don't know that

193
00:09:57,040 --> 00:10:01,800
Speaker 1: there's any precedent for whatsoever. And that, along with the

194
00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:06,640
Speaker 1: fact that this recession is the most anticipated recession of

195
00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:10,720
Speaker 1: our entire lifetimes, really gives you pause for the potential

196
00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:13,480
Speaker 1: for upside here. So where could the consensus and you

197
00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:18,040
Speaker 1: be wrong if the recession doesn't come. Okay, we all

198
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:21,160
Speaker 1: know what's happening, we all know what the components of

199
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:24,400
Speaker 1: it are. But again, think about it. Would we have

200
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:27,959
Speaker 1: ever thought that we would have seen two negative quarters

201
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:30,640
Speaker 1: of GDP like we saw in the beginning of this

202
00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:33,680
Speaker 1: year and that not be labeled a recession for the

203
00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:37,160
Speaker 1: first time since the nineties. If somehow we skate on

204
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:41,640
Speaker 1: through you know, zero growth slightly below zero, Ed's forecasts

205
00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:45,559
Speaker 1: zero percent GDP. That implies a mild recession. But if

206
00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:49,000
Speaker 1: it doesn't happen, there is you know, upside in our view.

207
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:53,160
Speaker 1: Do you remember when you were challenged with talking about bitcoin? Gentmen,

208
00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:57,440
Speaker 1: A good old thanks. I do. And and basically from

209
00:10:57,440 --> 00:11:00,360
Speaker 1: our point of view in in thinking about it though

210
00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:04,680
Speaker 1: is and we talked about this constantly, is that you're

211
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:10,800
Speaker 1: interviewing it continue is that there's an aspect of the technology,

212
00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:14,199
Speaker 1: the blockchain. Most people would agree that there's validity to

213
00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:19,120
Speaker 1: that technology, the same way there was validity to the

214
00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:23,559
Speaker 1: transcontinental railroad system in the eighteen seventies, but yet the

215
00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:27,880
Speaker 1: entire industry went bankrupt during the decade of the eighteen seventies.

216
00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:33,160
Speaker 1: Before for further economics, a space that attracted a lot

217
00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:36,160
Speaker 1: of capital and a lot of coverage, you covered it

218
00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:38,480
Speaker 1: at your own shop. And I just wonder, for let's

219
00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:41,200
Speaker 1: use that the core as an example, how difficult would

220
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:43,120
Speaker 1: it be to convince Himan now that this is something

221
00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:46,200
Speaker 1: we should cover at the firm. Well, look, and isn't

222
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:47,520
Speaker 1: that kind of the point right now that this is

223
00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:49,079
Speaker 1: going to be kind of hands off for the doubts

224
00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:51,800
Speaker 1: for a long long time still to come. There's no

225
00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:54,480
Speaker 1: question about the fact. And then again, if you think

226
00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:57,680
Speaker 1: about the price action, the price action is telling you something.

227
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:01,680
Speaker 1: The fact that since this scandal was uncovered, the price

228
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:07,679
Speaker 1: of bitcoin really hasn't moved materially lower after the initial uh,

229
00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:11,120
Speaker 1: you know, tribulations. It tells you that there is a

230
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:15,680
Speaker 1: fundamental belief in the technology, but yet is is typical

231
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:19,040
Speaker 1: for most markets. Once there's that sort of feeling of disgust,

232
00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:22,240
Speaker 1: you're gonna have a year, two years, three years, maybe

233
00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:25,560
Speaker 1: more of just sideways price action to where only the

234
00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:29,240
Speaker 1: true believers remain in the industry, and then likely you

235
00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:31,480
Speaker 1: have your next bat of progress to you were taken

236
00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:36,880
Speaker 1: about exactly that. I'm trying. I go with the railroad analogy,

237
00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:39,160
Speaker 1: but I can't go there. I think this is something else,

238
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:41,880
Speaker 1: and I go back to Ken Rogoff in his most

239
00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:45,240
Speaker 1: courageous book I've ever seen of the Generation, The Curse

240
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:49,960
Speaker 1: of Cash. This is about non regulation. It's like finance,

241
00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:52,680
Speaker 1: far more international than ft X. I'm speaking as an

242
00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:55,520
Speaker 1: amateur there, don't quote me. And the idea of this

243
00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:58,960
Speaker 1: not that it was a scam, but it was wrapped

244
00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:03,199
Speaker 1: around un regulated activity from day one and this morning,

245
00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:06,680
Speaker 1: John the regulators. The adults showed up this morning. Well,

246
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:11,000
Speaker 1: the headlines and the adults, the sec challenging bankman freight

247
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:15,000
Speaker 1: with the frauding investors, Judy, and this was great. He

248
00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:17,240
Speaker 1: can we just do this on a monthly basis, maybe

249
00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:19,480
Speaker 1: even you know, every two weeks, just coming to the

250
00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:23,720
Speaker 1: studio him and along, I'll sit out, you can, you know, okay?

251
00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:34,080
Speaker 1: Instead of counting a proto conversation. It's extremely important that

252
00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:36,480
Speaker 1: we dovetail in here first of all, to find the

253
00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:40,160
Speaker 1: one congressman in America that will root for Croatia today

254
00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:43,280
Speaker 1: against Argentina. And that would be the gentleman who is

255
00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:46,680
Speaker 1: the fabric and soul of Dutch America. This is in

256
00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:51,680
Speaker 1: western Michigan, North Kalamazoo. It is the second Congressional district

257
00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:56,640
Speaker 1: of Michigan. Yes conservative, Yes, Dutch American, but also fixated

258
00:13:56,760 --> 00:14:00,320
Speaker 1: on the new finance of America. Buildozinga joins us right now,

259
00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:03,920
Speaker 1: Republican from Michigan, thrilled he could uh join us today.

260
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:06,480
Speaker 1: I've got to talk world coupy of the congressman first though,

261
00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:09,199
Speaker 1: you've got to be rooted after what the Netherlands went

262
00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:13,679
Speaker 1: through with Argentina. I mean Croatia has a chance today, right, Yeah,

263
00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:16,120
Speaker 1: Croatia has got a chance today. Now, I will note

264
00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:20,040
Speaker 1: that the Dutch beat the United States. That was a

265
00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:23,680
Speaker 1: little tougher conversation. But I know all the football talk

266
00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:26,800
Speaker 1: has gotten me very excited about my Detroit Lions. So

267
00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:29,000
Speaker 1: that's true, hottest team in the NFL. So a little

268
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:31,240
Speaker 1: different football that is. I've got it's it's gonna be

269
00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:33,560
Speaker 1: a good day. I've got Michael Barb briefing me on

270
00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:36,240
Speaker 1: that in Bloomberg Radio on a daily basis a legend

271
00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:39,560
Speaker 1: from Detroit to the east. Congressman, I must ask you

272
00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:43,480
Speaker 1: about this meeting this morning at ten am, all the

273
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:46,480
Speaker 1: emotion and all the politics. I want you to take

274
00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:54,400
Speaker 1: the bizarreness of bitcoin, crypto, blockchain. How do you explain

275
00:14:54,640 --> 00:15:00,840
Speaker 1: this moment to your conservative constituency. Yeah, Constituty, seeing frankly

276
00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:05,080
Speaker 1: two colleagues as well, and uh, we've all of us

277
00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:08,320
Speaker 1: on the Financial Services Committee have had uh colleagues of

278
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:11,120
Speaker 1: ours coming up to us. Uh and you know, and

279
00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:14,960
Speaker 1: and not to mention obviously the constituents saying what is

280
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:18,440
Speaker 1: going on with this? And the sad element of this,

281
00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:22,640
Speaker 1: Tom is that this situation is creating the conversation, which

282
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:24,800
Speaker 1: is not a healthy one, or the direction we should go,

283
00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:27,600
Speaker 1: which is maybe we should just ban all of this.

284
00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:30,400
Speaker 1: You know, it's too confusing, it's a way too many

285
00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:33,920
Speaker 1: options and our opportunities to to cheat, lie, steal in it.

286
00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:36,760
Speaker 1: So how about we just ban it? Well, that's not

287
00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:39,560
Speaker 1: gonna happen, you know, and we we've got to remember

288
00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:41,880
Speaker 1: that this is more than just about crypto. It is

289
00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:45,320
Speaker 1: about the blockchain technology that underlies that, and that is

290
00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:49,440
Speaker 1: going to be transformative for the financial services but also healthcare,

291
00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:52,080
Speaker 1: you name it. I mean, on my backgrounds in construction

292
00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:54,720
Speaker 1: and housing, Um, you look at what you're gonna be

293
00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:57,880
Speaker 1: able to do in that field with with blockchain technology.

294
00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:01,440
Speaker 1: It's all very exciting. But this which appears to have

295
00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:05,680
Speaker 1: all the hallmarks of Enron and Bertie Maynoff blended together,

296
00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:08,920
Speaker 1: named Sam Bankman freed Uh, that is putting a very

297
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:11,800
Speaker 1: different spin on what the what the conversation has been

298
00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:15,760
Speaker 1: here in Washington. Congressman, how give you the timing of

299
00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:19,480
Speaker 1: the arrest given the planned meeting this morning on Capitol

300
00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:24,080
Speaker 1: Health Well, um, I would assume I would certainly, let's

301
00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:29,000
Speaker 1: hope that that Ginzler's revised calendar release yesterday had nothing

302
00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:31,480
Speaker 1: to do with that. But I have been talking to

303
00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:36,320
Speaker 1: a number of my colleagues who were former prosecutors, who

304
00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:38,560
Speaker 1: are saying, well, wait a minute, this if if you're

305
00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:44,680
Speaker 1: giving a witness or a potential UH potential mark UH

306
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:48,320
Speaker 1: an opportunity to come in under oath, spend four hours

307
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:52,720
Speaker 1: in you know, just freewheeling conversation with Congress where they

308
00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:55,680
Speaker 1: might just end up purjuring themselves. Why would you not

309
00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:58,520
Speaker 1: give them that opportunity. So it's got a lot of

310
00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:01,400
Speaker 1: just kind of question marks around own that about the timing.

311
00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:04,960
Speaker 1: I'm welcome his arrest. I what I don't understand is

312
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:07,600
Speaker 1: why it wasn't a week ago or a week from now.

313
00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:10,399
Speaker 1: Why did it have to be yesterday or last evening?

314
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:12,280
Speaker 1: What do you think would have been accomplished and what

315
00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:16,400
Speaker 1: do you want to be accomplished at today's meeting. Yeah. Well,

316
00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:19,440
Speaker 1: and of course, as you know we're having UH the

317
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:23,760
Speaker 1: new interim CEO Ray is coming in UH and I

318
00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:26,760
Speaker 1: would have wanted to hear his answer. The conversation that

319
00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:29,280
Speaker 1: I was going to have was going to be surrounding

320
00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:33,479
Speaker 1: uh FTX dot com. You know, the separation between uh

321
00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:37,560
Speaker 1: US as well as international funds, and was there commingling

322
00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:41,399
Speaker 1: of that illegally potentially if there was a U S

323
00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:45,639
Speaker 1: dollars getting put into those international funds like that, I

324
00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:48,600
Speaker 1: wanted to hear from both of them what their take

325
00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:51,000
Speaker 1: was and whether there was any any evidence of that,

326
00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:53,640
Speaker 1: because I want to protect US consumers and I want

327
00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:56,199
Speaker 1: to protect US taxpayers as well, because there's obviously been

328
00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:59,280
Speaker 1: some plans for we gotta bail it out, which can't happen.

329
00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:01,560
Speaker 1: I mean, people have looking for the Secretary of Treasury,

330
00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:03,800
Speaker 1: whether it's yelling or before. I mean, you know this

331
00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:08,240
Speaker 1: stretches back a number of years and administrations, Congressmen, but

332
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:11,920
Speaker 1: you've got to believe at some point we decide if

333
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:15,840
Speaker 1: bitcoin and all that is an asset, is it blodable,

334
00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:20,160
Speaker 1: can you audit it? And can it provide text advantage

335
00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:22,200
Speaker 1: when it has a huge gain to the I R

336
00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:24,560
Speaker 1: S and such? Are we at that point right now

337
00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:27,040
Speaker 1: where we need to codify bitcoin to be an I

338
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:31,040
Speaker 1: R S item? Well, there's not consensus of that yet.

339
00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:35,000
Speaker 1: And look you've got you've got some arguing it's commodity,

340
00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:37,600
Speaker 1: some arguing it's a security. Uh, you know, we like

341
00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:40,080
Speaker 1: things to be either fish or foul here in Washington,

342
00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:42,640
Speaker 1: d C. And it turns out this is a platypus right,

343
00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:46,000
Speaker 1: it's got it's got hallmarks of both UH and we

344
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:51,520
Speaker 1: we have not reached that consensus. Clearly, Gensler Chair Gensler believes, well,

345
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:53,119
Speaker 1: he did believe when he has had to see f

346
00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:55,600
Speaker 1: TC that it was a commodity. He now seems to

347
00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:59,439
Speaker 1: think it's a security. But you know, we we we

348
00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:02,040
Speaker 1: are going have to wrestle with this one right now.

349
00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:03,960
Speaker 1: I should know it. Also, by the way, we have

350
00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:06,800
Speaker 1: not seen Gary Ginsler in front of our committee in

351
00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:10,679
Speaker 1: over a year. It was last October. So Lisa was asking,

352
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:12,199
Speaker 1: you know, what kind of questions you would like to

353
00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:15,080
Speaker 1: ask today. I'd like to ask what has the interaction

354
00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:19,080
Speaker 1: been with this Curies in Exchange Commission UH leading up

355
00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:22,040
Speaker 1: to this point? And that's a very important thing. Sam

356
00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:24,200
Speaker 1: Bankman Freed was here in December of twenty one. It's

357
00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:26,440
Speaker 1: ironic that he would have been here more often than

358
00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:29,240
Speaker 1: Gary Ginslo in front of our committee. Carson, I've got

359
00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:30,920
Speaker 1: to ask you this, and we do this with all

360
00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:34,840
Speaker 1: of our politicians, particularly when they're not lawyers. You are

361
00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:41,200
Speaker 1: steeped in the core industrial process of America and sand, gravel,

362
00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:44,920
Speaker 1: crushed stone, that's what you do out in western Michigan.

363
00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:50,800
Speaker 1: How do we jump start investment in those core industrial

364
00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:55,560
Speaker 1: and housing construction processes. What does Washington need to do

365
00:19:56,080 --> 00:20:00,920
Speaker 1: to help somebody not busy and gravel right now? Yeah, Well,

366
00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:03,480
Speaker 1: and here's the interesting thing, Tom, is we actually are

367
00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:06,800
Speaker 1: pretty busy. Infrastructure has continued to go on, and your

368
00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:09,320
Speaker 1: last guest was talking about that, you know, some of

369
00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:13,800
Speaker 1: those underlying pressures that normally would have had us going

370
00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:17,640
Speaker 1: in a different direction. As we've seen inflationary pressures still continue.

371
00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:20,080
Speaker 1: There's still a lot of activity, but we've got to

372
00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:24,120
Speaker 1: we've got to solve this. Uh. The supply chain part

373
00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:27,679
Speaker 1: of that is in construction, is is making sure that

374
00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:31,240
Speaker 1: we've got domestic oil production in world oil production because

375
00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:34,960
Speaker 1: of a barrel of oil goes into PVC pipe, shingles,

376
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:37,800
Speaker 1: ash for all the you know, siding, all of those things.

377
00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:40,040
Speaker 1: So if we're if we're looking at how to housing

378
00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:43,360
Speaker 1: and infrastructure, we've got to make sure that the materials

379
00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:46,800
Speaker 1: and the labor is actually there and available. Cox thank

380
00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:48,560
Speaker 1: you so much for your time today. From the second

381
00:20:48,600 --> 00:21:02,119
Speaker 1: District of Michigan, Billa Zinga, thank you. We have inflation

382
00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:05,240
Speaker 1: here in two hours, and part of inflation has been

383
00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:08,080
Speaker 1: your gallon of gas. And for business diesel and Maria

384
00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:11,320
Speaker 1: send has been a huge value of Bloomberg surveillance in

385
00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:15,639
Speaker 1: Bloomberg worldwide and joins US now from energy aspects uh

386
00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:19,560
Speaker 1: A Marina. Is oil disinflating or is it becoming a

387
00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:23,920
Speaker 1: true deflation area item within the reports at eight thirty.

388
00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:28,680
Speaker 1: I mean, look, in the near term, it's obviously been deflationary, right,

389
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:32,600
Speaker 1: We've seen all the prices collapse. But I will say

390
00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:35,000
Speaker 1: this has got very little to do with fundamentals. Yes,

391
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,760
Speaker 1: there were good fundamental reasons why you know, we were

392
00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:40,720
Speaker 1: expecting around the year end that did materialize, given the

393
00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:45,240
Speaker 1: new Chinese long gowns, French strikes, all of those factors. Right, Sure,

394
00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:48,840
Speaker 1: we should have probably been in the low nineties, late eighties,

395
00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:51,960
Speaker 1: but not collapsing down to where we have. I'm talking

396
00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:54,920
Speaker 1: about Brent here of fort Um. This has been a

397
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:58,359
Speaker 1: massive year end liquidation event, Lots and lots of funds

398
00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:01,440
Speaker 1: of liquidated and I think that's what's drag prices here,

399
00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:05,439
Speaker 1: and that's obviously been deflationary, at least in the near term.

400
00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:07,760
Speaker 1: I just don't think this is gonna last. Well, it's

401
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:09,520
Speaker 1: not gonna last, But when's it going to go and

402
00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:11,720
Speaker 1: what will make it go? Is it a sense of

403
00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:14,479
Speaker 1: Pacific room demand, is a global demand or is there

404
00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:18,719
Speaker 1: some supply adjustment. I think it's going to be demand,

405
00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:21,560
Speaker 1: and I think it's going to be Asia, China in particular,

406
00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:24,880
Speaker 1: that's going to be the biggest driver of oil markets

407
00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:29,360
Speaker 1: next year. They are finally giving very clear indications of reopening.

408
00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:32,240
Speaker 1: So far, you know, we've been very cautious and we've

409
00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:35,880
Speaker 1: been kind of expecting April onwards. But yesterday we put

410
00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:38,560
Speaker 1: out a note we raised our Chinese demand numbers because

411
00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:41,760
Speaker 1: these are the very first concrete they have taken, and

412
00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:45,160
Speaker 1: I think that is meaningful. Again, it doesn't mean overnight

413
00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:48,639
Speaker 1: China can reopen. It will be a slow, gradual reopening.

414
00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:52,600
Speaker 1: But imagine Tom, it's been three years con February that

415
00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:55,840
Speaker 1: China would have had COVID. We've seen the kind of

416
00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:58,400
Speaker 1: pent up demand in the West when the West opened up,

417
00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:02,560
Speaker 1: and you're talking about bill Land, one billion plus people.

418
00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:05,360
Speaker 1: The bent up demand is going to be huge, and

419
00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:09,040
Speaker 1: you'd appreciate this is the multiplier effect. The impact is

420
00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:11,320
Speaker 1: going to have on the rest of the region. Korean

421
00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:15,720
Speaker 1: exports highland tourism everywhere. I think that's where the big

422
00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:17,800
Speaker 1: demand push is going to come from. So why is

423
00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:19,960
Speaker 1: that not being priced into markets at all? Why is

424
00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:22,520
Speaker 1: nobody following through on the story that everyone seemed to

425
00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:24,520
Speaker 1: be on board with not so long ago, that are

426
00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:28,480
Speaker 1: reopening in China would be bullish for oil prices. I

427
00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:31,119
Speaker 1: these there are two things for me. One, I have

428
00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:34,399
Speaker 1: a feeling this is a we need to see it

429
00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:37,399
Speaker 1: to believe it, because we've had a couple of quote

430
00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:40,960
Speaker 1: unquote false starts right even earlier this year. People after Shanghai,

431
00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:45,280
Speaker 1: we're expecting loosening of restrictions that didn't quite materialize um

432
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:47,960
Speaker 1: and they are still not buying crude in the market

433
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:50,159
Speaker 1: the way they used to. That's because they bought a

434
00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:52,200
Speaker 1: lot of crude in November. They need to run that down.

435
00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:54,040
Speaker 1: So I think both of that those things need to

436
00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:56,879
Speaker 1: go inside. And more generally, it's your red right. If

437
00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:59,399
Speaker 1: people have squared off their books, they don't want to

438
00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:02,639
Speaker 1: necessarily put to positions now. Having said that, if you

439
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:04,520
Speaker 1: look at the curve, if you look at the price

440
00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:09,359
Speaker 1: set right now for three, it does look extremely attractive.

441
00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:12,359
Speaker 1: You don't need major supply losses to tighten this market up.

442
00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:15,760
Speaker 1: Just the end of the SPR and China reopening does

443
00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:18,960
Speaker 1: provide some huge, huge bowcases for next year. Yeah, I

444
00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:21,640
Speaker 1: was gonna say, the strategy in petroleum reserve releases are

445
00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:25,679
Speaker 1: still ugoing, the last one having just been finished. With

446
00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:28,879
Speaker 1: respect to the distribution, how much has that influenced the

447
00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:33,280
Speaker 1: price hugely? If you take a step back this year,

448
00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:37,000
Speaker 1: what has actually happened is that we haven't lost much

449
00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:39,040
Speaker 1: while the door from the Russian invasion right, because the

450
00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:43,000
Speaker 1: embargo has just only kicked in. Since the invasion, we

451
00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:46,880
Speaker 1: have had two hundred and seventy million barrels of global

452
00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:51,200
Speaker 1: SPR released and maybe half a million barrels of of

453
00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:53,760
Speaker 1: Russian losses. So you can do the numbers. And yet

454
00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:57,680
Speaker 1: commercial infantries, yes, we've built, but only built by about

455
00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:00,040
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty million barrels. So had it not and

456
00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:03,000
Speaker 1: for the strategic petroleum reserves, we would have run out.

457
00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:07,840
Speaker 1: Avoid example basis of energy aspects. This is the Bloomberg
