The 6 00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:33,680 Speaker 1: instally of JP Morgan as management alongside us today. Great 7 00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:35,000 Speaker 1: have you with us in the building. I wanted to 8 00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:36,920 Speaker 1: start here because I think this is really important in 9 00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:39,160 Speaker 1: the United States. Ask about the debt ceiling and people 10 00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:41,199 Speaker 1: shake their heads and they're like, not this again. Is 11 00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:43,200 Speaker 1: anyone asking about that? When you go around and see 12 00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:45,400 Speaker 1: clients in London and UK across Europe, are they asking 13 00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:48,200 Speaker 1: about it? To be completely honest, No, not not really. 14 00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:52,040 Speaker 1: Maybe there's the the odd person is starting to think 15 00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:54,120 Speaker 1: about it. But I get the sense there's a case 16 00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:56,319 Speaker 1: if we've been here, we've seen the movie, there will 17 00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:58,320 Speaker 1: be a bit of twoing and throwing, but the reality 18 00:00:58,440 --> 00:00:59,760 Speaker 1: is at the end of the day there will be 19 00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:03,320 Speaker 1: some resolve around it. Do you think they should care? Um? 20 00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:05,920 Speaker 1: Not yet. I think ultimately you need to get you 21 00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:07,640 Speaker 1: need to wait until we get into the stage where 22 00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:10,319 Speaker 1: actually there is going to be a material impact that's 23 00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:11,920 Speaker 1: going to be later over the course of this year. 24 00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:13,640 Speaker 1: I always look at the bill market to see there's 25 00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:16,440 Speaker 1: any spikes in certain certain maturities. We're not seeing yet 26 00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:19,679 Speaker 1: that yet, so the market's not really particularly focusing on it. 27 00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:22,839 Speaker 1: And I feel that we've had over the last few years. 28 00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:25,240 Speaker 1: This isn't the first time we've had these these conversations. 29 00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:26,520 Speaker 1: There's a lot about there's a lot of other things 30 00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:28,360 Speaker 1: going on in the world before we get to probably 31 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:30,720 Speaker 1: worrying about the Well the Ottoman test of that is, 32 00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:33,320 Speaker 1: if the debt ceiling hits the fan, do we buy 33 00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:36,319 Speaker 1: the ten year treasury? The answer in years gone bias yes. 34 00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:38,560 Speaker 1: Do you see the answer changing probably even more so 35 00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:40,679 Speaker 1: now just because actually you've got some yield on the 36 00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:42,200 Speaker 1: ten uere treasury. We were happy to buy the ten 37 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:45,039 Speaker 1: year treasury back in twenty eleven when there wasn't much 38 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:46,600 Speaker 1: yield on on the ten year and at this time 39 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:48,360 Speaker 1: there is, so I definitely think that will be the case. 40 00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:51,160 Speaker 1: In the flight to quality, will will favor those those bonds, 41 00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:52,880 Speaker 1: you know where there hasn't been any yield and hasn't 42 00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:54,960 Speaker 1: been for several decades is Japan. I know it's a 43 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:56,600 Speaker 1: massive focus for a lot of people here in London 44 00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:59,440 Speaker 1: for you as well, looking at fixed income. There was 45 00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:03,240 Speaker 1: a meeting back in December. We had the meetings minutes 46 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 1: and it suggested that the government official they're actually requested 47 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:10,120 Speaker 1: a recess suspended the meeting. What do you think is 48 00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:11,800 Speaker 1: going on at the b O J and do you 49 00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:14,480 Speaker 1: think the government is happy with it? I think the 50 00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 1: reality is when you look at where inflation is in Japan, 51 00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 1: it's not what we've seen in the US, it's not 52 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 1: what we've seen in Europe, but it's it's going up 53 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 1: and at the moment, their policy looks at odds with 54 00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:27,200 Speaker 1: with what's happening. The reality though, is they don't want 55 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:30,120 Speaker 1: to cause untowards volatility in the market. I'm not I 56 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 1: don't want to liken what's happening in Japan to me 57 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 1: what happen in the UK a few months ago, But 58 00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:36,280 Speaker 1: they don't want to see that level of volatility. So 59 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:37,840 Speaker 1: I think what we've learned from the Bank of Japan 60 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:39,639 Speaker 1: over the last couple of months or so is that 61 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:41,400 Speaker 1: I think we're going to get there, but they're going 62 00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 1: to do it on their own terms. They obviously widened 63 00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:46,079 Speaker 1: the band when the market wasn't expecting it. The market 64 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,120 Speaker 1: was hoping for something last week they didn't, And they're 65 00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 1: actually doing these facilities at the moment to try to 66 00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:53,640 Speaker 1: keep financial stability. We're going to get there, it's inevitable, 67 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:55,840 Speaker 1: I think, but they also want to do on their 68 00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:57,360 Speaker 1: own terms. The two words I want to talk about 69 00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:00,480 Speaker 1: normal and market. Those two words I could with Jeremy 70 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:02,400 Speaker 1: Stretch in the last couple of hours of c ib 71 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:04,760 Speaker 1: C and he said, Japan's the next one to normalize, 72 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:06,480 Speaker 1: And I said, what's normal? I've got no idea what's 73 00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 1: normal in Japan when they've been doing this now for decades. 74 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:10,920 Speaker 1: The other world I want to talk about with you 75 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:14,040 Speaker 1: as well is the word market. Is there a market, 76 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 1: a sufficient market with private demand both domestically and internationally 77 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,680 Speaker 1: for Japanese debt for when this bo j backs away? 78 00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,000 Speaker 1: Does it exist? Is there any sign of the one 79 00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:28,959 Speaker 1: actually being there right now? Um, that's going to be 80 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:31,919 Speaker 1: a challenge because obviously the Bank of Japan own a huge, 81 00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:35,240 Speaker 1: huge piece of the market, particularly in the in the 82 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:37,520 Speaker 1: shorter dated ten years and in where they've obviously been 83 00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:40,240 Speaker 1: looking to control control yields. So I think that's an open, 84 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 1: open debate. Obviously we're going to see the market repriced 85 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,080 Speaker 1: to where to where it should should do. But the 86 00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 1: reality is there is a huge amount of securities owned 87 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 1: by by the bank repriced too. If we don't know 88 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 1: if there's a market that actually what you get. What 89 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 1: you can do is if you track the tenure j 90 00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 1: GB yield and put it on top of the ten 91 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 1: year treasury year and you see treasury yields move higher 92 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 1: over the course last year, the tenure j GB suddenly 93 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:09,880 Speaker 1: hit hit the upper bound. If you before then there 94 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:13,120 Speaker 1: was a pretty good relationship. So if you reach continue 95 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 1: to track that, you're talking somewhere seventy seventy five basis points. 96 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:19,160 Speaker 1: Given where the tenure treasury is, that probably seems as 97 00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 1: a as a good started point. As I said, inflation 98 00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 1: in Japan isn't what it was in the U S 99 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:24,279 Speaker 1: and Europe, but it's going up. We've got, you know, 100 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 1: wage negotiations coming up in April. I think they're going 101 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:29,200 Speaker 1: to have to let that go. So don't find the 102 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 1: fair used to be the phrase I know they've been 103 00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:33,720 Speaker 1: reflected on that. Should I fight the b J I 104 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:35,480 Speaker 1: think the interesting thing is, as I said, they want 105 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:37,240 Speaker 1: to do on their own terms. So there at the 106 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:39,360 Speaker 1: moment they're trying to push some of the shorts out 107 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 1: of out of the market. If you've got a long 108 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:43,679 Speaker 1: term view, I think you can hold that and actually 109 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:46,359 Speaker 1: yields will be higher over the medium medium term. What 110 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:48,720 Speaker 1: kind of number are you thinking about on the yields, 111 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:50,280 Speaker 1: I think only five base points on the tenure. I 112 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 1: think then they go beyond that kind of number. Though. 113 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 1: In Japan, I'm looking at the things right now that 114 00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:56,839 Speaker 1: are taking place across fixed income and with central banks. 115 00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:58,480 Speaker 1: You're talking about the b O J backing away from 116 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 1: the YELD curve control. These eb is doing QT. They've 117 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:03,760 Speaker 1: got officials running out all over the place. Sound fifty 118 00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:06,040 Speaker 1: basis points? Fifty basis points? I think the bank agrees 119 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:08,560 Speaker 1: pushed back a little bit in that world. Is that 120 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:11,240 Speaker 1: bullish your bearest for fixed income at a time where 121 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:13,719 Speaker 1: I've got pretty much everyone is fixed incomes saying buy bonds, 122 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:16,200 Speaker 1: all these things taking place Japan, the e C b 123 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 1: QT all over the place, is that bearish your bullish 124 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:21,280 Speaker 1: fixed income? It depends what part of the fixed income 125 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:24,160 Speaker 1: market you're talking about. Because the US, where people are 126 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:26,920 Speaker 1: looking to buy bonds, has seen the bigger repricing. We've 127 00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:29,599 Speaker 1: got more evidence over the last week or so that 128 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:32,320 Speaker 1: we are having a slow down retail sales. We're gonna 129 00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:34,719 Speaker 1: have the FED who want to slow down from their pace, 130 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:37,240 Speaker 1: the European Central Bank, the Bank of Japan, they're behind 131 00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:39,640 Speaker 1: the FED. We've only just got too neutral in Europe. 132 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:41,720 Speaker 1: Is as you said, what is neutral in Japan? Maybe 133 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:44,280 Speaker 1: we'll find out got no idea, So they need to 134 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:47,000 Speaker 1: do a little bit more. And I actually think Europe 135 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 1: is particularly interesting at the moment because we were in 136 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:52,919 Speaker 1: a world where they were hiking rates to deal with inflation. 137 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,040 Speaker 1: Now inflation is coming or likely to come off because 138 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 1: what's happening in energy prices that should be good for 139 00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:00,600 Speaker 1: the economy. Growth is supposed We're supposed to be be in 140 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:02,720 Speaker 1: recession in Europe at the moment, and we're not. So 141 00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 1: are The e C began and maybe have to go 142 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:07,320 Speaker 1: slower but further as they tried to battle this. So 143 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 1: I definitely thin there's a dynamic between wanting to own 144 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 1: US fixed income and then being a little bit more 145 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,040 Speaker 1: cautious and some of the other markets around the world. 146 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:15,600 Speaker 1: I wanted to squeeze this in because I asked this 147 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:17,480 Speaker 1: question earlier, I'm going to ask it a week. Does 148 00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 1: the ECP hype more than the FEDE Yes, it seems 149 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 1: to be the takeaway at the moment and stably this 150 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 1: was fantastic. It's good to see it from JP Morgan 151 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:32,599 Speaker 1: Asset Management. Right now, Alfia dor Walla joins us with 152 00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 1: Rock Creek Group. They are an exceptionally thoughtful group with 153 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:39,840 Speaker 1: real hydrocarbon focus and also with an E. M. Bent. 154 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,880 Speaker 1: We're thrilled she could join us this morning. If what 155 00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:48,160 Speaker 1: is cash right now? Is cash an asset? You know? 156 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:50,679 Speaker 1: Last year cash was definitely an asset. We were overweight 157 00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 1: cash and it helped our portfolios. This year we are 158 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 1: starting to put a little bit of money to work 159 00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:59,040 Speaker 1: incrementally within fixed income more than anything else. UM a 160 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:02,359 Speaker 1: little bit too early to be really chasing fixed in cup. 161 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:04,320 Speaker 1: We think that at some point we're gonna want to 162 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:08,360 Speaker 1: start extending duration, so fixed income is a big focus today. 163 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 1: What do you do with the energy is the only 164 00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:14,559 Speaker 1: survivor of an ugly two thousand twenty two You people 165 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:18,880 Speaker 1: have got terrific natural gas history. How do you how 166 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,120 Speaker 1: do you frame that or how do you bet on 167 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:24,400 Speaker 1: that out three years? Yeah? And you know, Lisa, you 168 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 1: mentioned two of our main themes, will the energy shock 169 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 1: from the war in Europe continue to be contained or 170 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 1: do we see part two this year? You know, we 171 00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:34,800 Speaker 1: saw winter warmth, We've started seeing European subsidies, We've seen 172 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 1: the US tapping into the Strategic Patrol reserve support containment. 173 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 1: And then we see China on the other hand. You know, 174 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 1: demand for oil is going to increase as China reopens, 175 00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 1: and so we're kind of looking at all of these 176 00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:50,400 Speaker 1: factors and saying, is the second half of the year 177 00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:52,480 Speaker 1: going to be a little bit like we were seeing 178 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:54,640 Speaker 1: some of the tensions in the last year. So let's 179 00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 1: put those two ideas together. You were saying it's not 180 00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 1: time to lean into duration, but you're waiting too, and 181 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:02,000 Speaker 1: the cuential for the energy crisis to rear its head. 182 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:04,400 Speaker 1: What are you waiting for? We've seen a rally already, 183 00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 1: so yields are already almost a percentage point off the 184 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 1: recent highs for the tenure. What are you waiting for 185 00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 1: to say it is time? Yeah, and it's a continuous 186 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,680 Speaker 1: conversation as markets are moving, But we've seen a disconnect 187 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 1: right between market expectations and the fed's hawk is announcements. 188 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:20,120 Speaker 1: The tenure seems to be stuck a little bit around 189 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 1: three and a half percent because markets think that the 190 00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:24,480 Speaker 1: FED is going to have to pit it and reduce rates. 191 00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 1: We think that the tenure could retrace it around four 192 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 1: percent at some point early this year, and then that's 193 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 1: going to signal a good opportunity to slowly start buying 194 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:36,920 Speaker 1: duration again. We're looking for good entry points to start 195 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:39,840 Speaker 1: extending duration in our fixtingcome portfolios, but we don't want 196 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 1: to chase anything because we do think that we're still 197 00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 1: a long way off from the FED really signaling any 198 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:47,480 Speaker 1: sort of even pause. What's interesting to me is the 199 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:50,240 Speaker 1: idea of a four percent ten year yield and the 200 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:55,080 Speaker 1: implication for equities that previously sold off when yields went up. 201 00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:57,679 Speaker 1: But if we have an environment where pausitive, where it's 202 00:08:57,679 --> 00:09:00,920 Speaker 1: a positive look at the economy at could potentially happen 203 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 1: with growth, is it also couldn't be positive for equities 204 00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:05,960 Speaker 1: in the short run. You know, I think equities are 205 00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 1: gonna be maybe potentially a tale of two halves this year. 206 00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:10,880 Speaker 1: You know, we think kind of middling for the next 207 00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:12,960 Speaker 1: six months, but I think you're gonna have to pick 208 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:15,400 Speaker 1: your spots. You have to remember the SNP is still 209 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:18,920 Speaker 1: trading around eighteen times, whereas Europe's trading around twelve and 210 00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:21,440 Speaker 1: a half and e M in certain countries even lower. 211 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:23,880 Speaker 1: So it could be a valuation story of the half 212 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:27,080 Speaker 1: of the Here Lifia with you and our Sanny, let's 213 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:29,839 Speaker 1: just talk about the Vogue again. I believe it was 214 00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:33,640 Speaker 1: a vogue twelve months ago, twenty four months ago, thirty 215 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 1: six months ago. You get the theme e M in 216 00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:41,960 Speaker 1: international are back. Is this time different? You know, it 217 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 1: feels like a little bit of a consensus trade because 218 00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:46,440 Speaker 1: you're starting to hear people really talk about it more 219 00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:49,719 Speaker 1: and again. You can't generalize yet. I mean China to 220 00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:54,680 Speaker 1: Brazil to India. These are completely different factors, completely different 221 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 1: time horizons you have to have. But as an institutional investor, 222 00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:00,680 Speaker 1: you have to be in emerging markets a to some extent. 223 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:02,679 Speaker 1: You have to get China right because that is the 224 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 1: still the biggest determinant in a NIM portfolio. Alifa, thank 225 00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:08,839 Speaker 1: you so much. Olivia Dorwalla with Rock Creek Group there 226 00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:22,720 Speaker 1: on the allocation mystery, what we're gonna do right now? 227 00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 1: You speak to someone who invented it. I really can't 228 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:29,080 Speaker 1: say this enough. I'm gonna go back to the shot 229 00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:32,560 Speaker 1: gun aw of point figure charts of eighteen eighty and 230 00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:35,320 Speaker 1: through the early part of last century, and then in 231 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:39,600 Speaker 1: the nineteen forties there was dropped upon us someone who said, 232 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:43,480 Speaker 1: you can plot a stock and you can draw lines 233 00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:47,280 Speaker 1: of support in resistance. His name was John Maggie. One 234 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:51,040 Speaker 1: of his great disciples was Relf and compora to say 235 00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 1: he's a chartered market technician. Co Farnder barely describes his 236 00:10:55,040 --> 00:11:01,720 Speaker 1: contribution to looking back at what Price tells us about forward? Ralph, 237 00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 1: honored to have you with us today. I want you 238 00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:10,400 Speaker 1: to discuss the modern idiocy over catharsis. We need Catharsis 239 00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:14,000 Speaker 1: to make a bottom in the equity market. Have you 240 00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 1: observed catharsis that drags us out of this bear market? Absolutely? Tom, 241 00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:23,920 Speaker 1: Thank you for that kind introduction. I have to have 242 00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 1: I have to stress Octobert. Tom, the Dow had an 243 00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:34,800 Speaker 1: intra day price wing of fifteen hundred and two points. 244 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 1: No one's talking about it. In technical parlance, that's called 245 00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 1: a key reversal day when the low of the day 246 00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:46,600 Speaker 1: and the high of the day precede the previous days 247 00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:50,880 Speaker 1: high low, and that to me was a major turning point. 248 00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:57,160 Speaker 1: And since that October low to the December thirteenth high, 249 00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:01,120 Speaker 1: that DALLA is up about the S and P s 250 00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:05,200 Speaker 1: up about eighteen. So there's been a nice recovery and 251 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:08,320 Speaker 1: since then the market has been consolidating. I think we're 252 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:11,680 Speaker 1: making a bottom long term in this bowl market. Well, 253 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:15,240 Speaker 1: if the study of technical analysis, with great respect for 254 00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:18,280 Speaker 1: Dow theory and the rest of it, was done of 255 00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:22,240 Speaker 1: a time of non derivative instruments, we now live in 256 00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:26,800 Speaker 1: a world of E t f s, of massive indexation, 257 00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:31,160 Speaker 1: and all to the formulas of support and resistance that 258 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:34,720 Speaker 1: you helped invent, do they work in this time where 259 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:38,040 Speaker 1: the New York Stock Exchange really isn't the New York 260 00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:44,560 Speaker 1: Stock Exchange we knew. Yes, I appreciate that question, Tom, 261 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:48,240 Speaker 1: But remember what technical analysis is all about. It is 262 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:52,599 Speaker 1: following the laws of supply and demand bias versus sellers, 263 00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:56,640 Speaker 1: and that has never changed. The emotion of investors has 264 00:12:56,720 --> 00:13:00,120 Speaker 1: never changed, fear and greed. It is all manifest and 265 00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 1: what we follow. So if you believe in price, which 266 00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:07,440 Speaker 1: I do, that's I don't own and indicator an own price, 267 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:11,120 Speaker 1: and I follow the trend of price. Buyers push him up, 268 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:14,200 Speaker 1: sell us push them down. It's that simple ralph on 269 00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:18,080 Speaker 1: the spectrum of risk versus fear of a risk, appetite 270 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:22,840 Speaker 1: versus taking all your tips off the table, where are we? Um? 271 00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:28,640 Speaker 1: For me, I've taken I've become a little I've become 272 00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:33,280 Speaker 1: very aggressive coming out of that October thirteenth low, and 273 00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:37,520 Speaker 1: I think since then, if you look at foreign markets 274 00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:41,839 Speaker 1: like Europe, and you look at emerging markets, they have 275 00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:45,720 Speaker 1: been leading the US market. So UM, I think it's 276 00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:49,240 Speaker 1: broadening out. So I'd say, put chips on the table, 277 00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:52,199 Speaker 1: play the game. What makes you feel like this has 278 00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:54,720 Speaker 1: staying power? Like this is the early stages of something 279 00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:58,800 Speaker 1: more sustained versus a head fake ahead of something that 280 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:00,920 Speaker 1: a lot of people say as an a very byproduct 281 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:05,440 Speaker 1: of monetary policy. Good question. Um, Remember I was talking 282 00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:10,280 Speaker 1: about October thirteen low and rallied in two much to 283 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:16,040 Speaker 1: December thirteenth high, and that since December thirteenth we've had 284 00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:20,320 Speaker 1: a pullback. The doll was dropped about uh six percent 285 00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:22,720 Speaker 1: the so I think the SMP had an eight percent 286 00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 1: decline and those levels right there, we are looking at 287 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:29,920 Speaker 1: that would be a thirty two thousand, five eighty one 288 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:33,680 Speaker 1: on the Dow and three thousand, seven sixty four on 289 00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:37,400 Speaker 1: the SMP. Those are very short term support levels. That's 290 00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:39,680 Speaker 1: where the buy and she could be in. I I 291 00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:42,880 Speaker 1: keep my eye closely on that on a short term basis, 292 00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:46,440 Speaker 1: and I think we're holding up well. Well. I want 293 00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:48,800 Speaker 1: to get back to the arch issue of the day, 294 00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:51,600 Speaker 1: which is the failure of the American retirement system because 295 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:53,400 Speaker 1: people are in and out and in and out of 296 00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:55,800 Speaker 1: the market. We're at one of those moments right now. 297 00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:59,040 Speaker 1: We're millions of people are literally saying, how do I 298 00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:01,840 Speaker 1: summon the cur to get back into the market. And 299 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:04,440 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go to the to the crew that you 300 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:06,760 Speaker 1: and I are weaned on in Large Mountain, New York, 301 00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:11,440 Speaker 1: Mike Burke, Chartcraft, Mr. Cohen's work, and of course Earl Blumenthal. 302 00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:15,120 Speaker 1: They knew when to have the courage to get into 303 00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 1: the market. How do you get into the market like 304 00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:24,880 Speaker 1: you did in nine Uh, when you say get into 305 00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:29,240 Speaker 1: the market, you mean participating and trading. I'm in cash 306 00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 1: and I need to go long. How do I get 307 00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:37,440 Speaker 1: back into the market if I'm scared stiff? Well again, 308 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:40,160 Speaker 1: I I again being a technician, I think you gotta 309 00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:43,640 Speaker 1: look at levels, and I think in the days ahead, 310 00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:47,800 Speaker 1: literally excuse me, in the in the very short term, 311 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:51,800 Speaker 1: the next couple of weeks, just watch because we're in 312 00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:54,400 Speaker 1: the early seasons right now, and we've still got a 313 00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:57,440 Speaker 1: lot of dialogue about whether it's a recession and not 314 00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:01,120 Speaker 1: a recession um and you've got the war in Ukraine. 315 00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:05,560 Speaker 1: If we can hold above that October low, which I 316 00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:08,840 Speaker 1: think we will, that to me would be the final test. 317 00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:12,640 Speaker 1: So the next couple of weeks volatility we hold above 318 00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:17,920 Speaker 1: those loans, I think, looking out towards the second half 319 00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:19,200 Speaker 1: of this year, I think we're going to be in 320 00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:22,400 Speaker 1: pretty good cheap never enough time Ralph and Compourer, they're 321 00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:25,720 Speaker 1: on technical analysis. Just honored to have him on with us. 322 00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:31,480 Speaker 1: I'm happy to say here in London I can catch 323 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:34,320 Speaker 1: up with Jeremy Stretch, the head of Detail FEC Strategy 324 00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:36,520 Speaker 1: at C I B C. Jeremy great to catch up 325 00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:38,200 Speaker 1: with anybody. Good to see it from page to the 326 00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:41,280 Speaker 1: ft this morning for all to see. Europe can avoid recession? 327 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:45,600 Speaker 1: The Eurozone can avoid recession? Can the Eurozone avoid recession? Well? 328 00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 1: Suddenly the movie music has materially changed because of the 329 00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:51,320 Speaker 1: retreat that we've seen in European gas prices, and of 330 00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:53,720 Speaker 1: course we've also seen that Chinese reopening narrative which is 331 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:57,160 Speaker 1: providing a slightly more constructive backdrop for the German exports sector. 332 00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:00,160 Speaker 1: So the combination of these two factors does suggest that 333 00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:03,240 Speaker 1: Europe might and Germany and the leadership of that might 334 00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:06,159 Speaker 1: just avoid that negative GDP print. And that's obviously one 335 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:07,880 Speaker 1: of the one of the catholics which has really been 336 00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:11,920 Speaker 1: driving this euro recovery narrative, alongside the presumption that the 337 00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:14,040 Speaker 1: ECB is seemingly much more hawkers than the defeat. And 338 00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:17,600 Speaker 1: it's a relative story, isn't it stagnation versus recession? Now 339 00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:20,840 Speaker 1: we need to talk about stagnation versus expansion and recovery. 340 00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:23,760 Speaker 1: It's a big difference between the form and the latter. No, indeed, 341 00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:25,280 Speaker 1: indeed there is so in a sense, I think what 342 00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:28,040 Speaker 1: we had is that obviously, going through the third quarter 343 00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:30,520 Speaker 1: last year, we had an enormous degree of negativity pricing 344 00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:33,040 Speaker 1: or baked into the sort of the Eurozone recovery narrative, 345 00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:35,000 Speaker 1: because of course we were talking about the potential of 346 00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:37,679 Speaker 1: gas rationing. Now here we are at this stage in 347 00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:39,679 Speaker 1: the in the in the winter period. Now it is 348 00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:42,040 Speaker 1: remarkably cold here in London as we know at the moment, 349 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:45,520 Speaker 1: but the actual winter itself has been relatively mild thus far. 350 00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:48,120 Speaker 1: And if you look at European gas short storage levels, 351 00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:51,000 Speaker 1: it's they're running around twenty above the sort of levels 352 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:53,320 Speaker 1: you would have expected normally at this time of the winter. 353 00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:56,640 Speaker 1: So that eases the burden in terms of the re 354 00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:58,919 Speaker 1: refilling of those gas storage tanks through the course of 355 00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:02,440 Speaker 1: this summer, and US we've seen Germany opening its liquefied 356 00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:06,639 Speaker 1: natural gas UH ports in terms of William's Harving for example. 357 00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:09,200 Speaker 1: So the ability for Germany to get those en ergy 358 00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:12,600 Speaker 1: capabilities or or flows from the US in particular has 359 00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 1: helped to alleviate some of those recession risks far enough, 360 00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:18,080 Speaker 1: coal as well over in Germany well, which is which 361 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:19,760 Speaker 1: is which is an interesting one. So in the sense 362 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:21,480 Speaker 1: that's one of the legacy issues. So that's why it 363 00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:23,440 Speaker 1: was as fascinating to see, you know, the great of 364 00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:27,879 Speaker 1: Thumberg narrative being put alongside at the World Economic Forum 365 00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:30,159 Speaker 1: in Davos. You mentioned the CP is a question for 366 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:32,679 Speaker 1: you three, does the e c V hype more than 367 00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:35,040 Speaker 1: the Fed this year. Yes, I think it does. I 368 00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:38,119 Speaker 1: think we're very much in this steady and significant policy 369 00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:42,159 Speaker 1: narrative the you know, the sort of paraphrase Madame Legarde 370 00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:45,480 Speaker 1: and throw Margaret Thatcher into it's the ladies not for 371 00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 1: turning in terms of the interest rate story from the 372 00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:50,159 Speaker 1: narrative that we saw from last week. So it seems 373 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:53,359 Speaker 1: likely to go along with the comments and class not 374 00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:54,800 Speaker 1: over the weekend that we're going to see at least 375 00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:56,960 Speaker 1: two fifty bases where most in the from the CD 376 00:18:57,280 --> 00:18:59,679 Speaker 1: the next two meetings. Do they go beyond that in 377 00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:02,919 Speaker 1: terms of into the spring? Possibly? Yes. So that I 378 00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:04,879 Speaker 1: think does suggest that the c B is gonna be 379 00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:07,160 Speaker 1: a little more hawkers than the Fed, because if we're 380 00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:11,240 Speaker 1: if the market is right, and obviously markets attending to be, 381 00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:13,560 Speaker 1: you know, very aggressive in terms of calling for a 382 00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:16,360 Speaker 1: moderation in terms of policy timing for the Fed, then 383 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:18,040 Speaker 1: that does suggest that the c is gonna be more 384 00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:20,439 Speaker 1: hawk kid Joseph salk Jen this morning, writing in London 385 00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:22,879 Speaker 1: for sock Jen, saying, a spoonful of optimism house the 386 00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:25,199 Speaker 1: dollar go down. You want to play that against the yen, 387 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:27,800 Speaker 1: against the euro? How do you want to play that story? Well, well, 388 00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:29,159 Speaker 1: I think that I think the yen is is an 389 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:31,440 Speaker 1: obvious and in an interesting one because again we've we've 390 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:34,920 Speaker 1: seen a degree of policy uncertainty really written large after 391 00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:38,400 Speaker 1: that adjustment in term of your curve control back in December. 392 00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:40,640 Speaker 1: Now those minutes from the meeting there have been really 393 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:43,119 Speaker 1: so overnight suggests that a lot of the b o 394 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:46,399 Speaker 1: J members were worried about the communication aspects of that change. 395 00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:48,119 Speaker 1: But I think it was it was always going to 396 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:49,879 Speaker 1: be the case, you know, to expect a degree of 397 00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:52,880 Speaker 1: policy normalization from the bo J this year, but more 398 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:55,960 Speaker 1: so after Corona leaves office, because of course he's only 399 00:19:55,960 --> 00:19:57,919 Speaker 1: got one more meeting to go. So I think, you know, 400 00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:02,120 Speaker 1: I think there is some substantive scope for yet appreciation. 401 00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:04,320 Speaker 1: So we you know, we'd be looking for runs up 402 00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:06,320 Speaker 1: to maybe one one, one thirty two in the nearer 403 00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:08,960 Speaker 1: term to provide better levels to start short looking from 404 00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:11,240 Speaker 1: a return back to one twenty. The words we use matter. 405 00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,240 Speaker 1: You said normalization and Japan in the first same sentence. 406 00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:16,600 Speaker 1: So we've had several decades now see a rates in Japan. 407 00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:19,240 Speaker 1: What's normal? Well, that's true. I mean I've been in 408 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:21,679 Speaker 1: the market for some considerable time and you know Japan 409 00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:24,399 Speaker 1: and Japanese minetary policy has been generally the same. They 410 00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:27,600 Speaker 1: but always attaining for this aiming for this two percent 411 00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:31,639 Speaker 1: inflation target, which invariably they've missed other than and sporadic 412 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:35,480 Speaker 1: and exceptional circumstances. We're seeing now normalization that I think 413 00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:37,800 Speaker 1: is a process of moving away from that negative interest 414 00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:39,320 Speaker 1: rate policy. So I think that's going to be the 415 00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:41,560 Speaker 1: dynamic that we're going to see. So if we start 416 00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:44,199 Speaker 1: to seeing Japan moving away from those negative rates, that 417 00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:47,520 Speaker 1: has enormous implications for fund flows because of course Japan 418 00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:51,159 Speaker 1: being that major exporter of capital, exporter of credit in 419 00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:53,200 Speaker 1: terms of looking for those higher yields. If there is 420 00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:55,639 Speaker 1: a degree of dislocation in terms of those fun flows 421 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:58,200 Speaker 1: and that exiting from Japan, that I think that has 422 00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:00,800 Speaker 1: in more normous implications. So as we look for treasury 423 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:03,800 Speaker 1: j UB spreads to continue to compress, that provides that 424 00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:05,600 Speaker 1: to a momentum for Dolly and to move. Love talked 425 00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:07,080 Speaker 1: to me about their limits, about how far they B 426 00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:09,160 Speaker 1: I J can go, how far they can pull back 427 00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:11,320 Speaker 1: from their your curve control. I was thinking about the 428 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:12,920 Speaker 1: ECB in Europe in the last year, and if you 429 00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:14,840 Speaker 1: told me they were going to deliver what they have delivered. 430 00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:17,120 Speaker 1: On top of throwing in QUTEI as well. I would 431 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:19,840 Speaker 1: have had real doubts about what could or couldn't happen 432 00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:22,200 Speaker 1: to the bond market. I would have expected the periphery 433 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:25,199 Speaker 1: to face a real, real difficulty. I know spreads are wider, 434 00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:27,720 Speaker 1: I know yields are out over the last twelve months 435 00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:29,560 Speaker 1: or so, but not to the extent that I would 436 00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:31,199 Speaker 1: have said, have you been surprised by that? What does 437 00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:33,639 Speaker 1: that inform you about how far the BOJ might go? 438 00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 1: You're absolutely right, because if you think about what we've 439 00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 1: seen from the c B, you would have thought that 440 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:39,520 Speaker 1: B two B bund spreads would have been pushing to 441 00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:42,000 Speaker 1: fifty basis points or higher and starting to really create 442 00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:45,119 Speaker 1: some degree of fragmentation risk. So, in a sense, I 443 00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:46,720 Speaker 1: think you know that we have seen a degree of 444 00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:50,200 Speaker 1: relative calm, if you like, in terms of the movements 445 00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:52,359 Speaker 1: that we've seen in terms of monitory policy. And I 446 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:54,040 Speaker 1: think that's going to be interesting in terms of Japan. 447 00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:56,960 Speaker 1: So can they tolerate you know, long air yields, you 448 00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:59,000 Speaker 1: know ten year olds moving up on one percent? I 449 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:01,800 Speaker 1: think they probably can if we get a more normalized 450 00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:04,600 Speaker 1: yield curve in Japan. So I think you know there 451 00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:07,520 Speaker 1: is this scope for an adjustment. I'm not suggesting that 452 00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:08,800 Speaker 1: you know the bo J is going to be suddenly 453 00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:13,040 Speaker 1: adopting a very aggressive place of balance sheet constriction. I 454 00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:16,400 Speaker 1: think it's more about removing or easing those consideration terms 455 00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:20,240 Speaker 1: of your curve control, removing that negative rate dynamic, and 456 00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:22,879 Speaker 1: then encouraging some of those fun flows to remain on shore. 457 00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:25,760 Speaker 1: I think that's the sort of the dynamic, rather necessarily 458 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:28,560 Speaker 1: going for a complete sea change, even with the confines 459 00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:30,960 Speaker 1: of a new administration. Let's finish on the FED. The 460 00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:33,480 Speaker 1: dove's got the last word, Governor Waller. I would have 461 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:35,800 Speaker 1: called him a dove last year, but certainly endorsed the 462 00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:38,240 Speaker 1: twenty five basis quite moved this year. Are we done 463 00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:41,480 Speaker 1: after that? I think we're then getting to a situation 464 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:43,720 Speaker 1: where we are literally right at the end game, and 465 00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:45,600 Speaker 1: I think the data will then determine that. So I 466 00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:49,040 Speaker 1: think we are still very much focusing on employment and earnings. 467 00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:50,639 Speaker 1: I think those are the t that you know, the 468 00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:54,000 Speaker 1: obvious benchmarks, and then of course looking within the CPI 469 00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:56,600 Speaker 1: print to see how things like those rent dynamics play out. 470 00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:58,600 Speaker 1: So I think we are very very close to the 471 00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:00,879 Speaker 1: end game here. But I think the the other issue 472 00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:03,679 Speaker 1: that we were still take take issue with from the 473 00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:06,600 Speaker 1: market perspective is that degree of cuts, you know, that 474 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:09,040 Speaker 1: rate cutting, that's price into the market. Were very close 475 00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:10,520 Speaker 1: to the end of the hiking cycle where we don't 476 00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:13,680 Speaker 1: necessariything we should be pricing in cuts from the second 477 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:16,119 Speaker 1: half of the final question, Marcus have to grapple with 478 00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:20,119 Speaker 1: ever changing probabilities and price them accordingly. Who's got more 479 00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:23,040 Speaker 1: chance here the Federal's Earth get into five or Tottenham 480 00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:25,240 Speaker 1: getting the top four finish this year in the league. 481 00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:28,000 Speaker 1: We'll considering my son as a massive Arsenal fan. Then 482 00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:31,639 Speaker 1: I really really cannot, I really cannot answer anything in 483 00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:34,560 Speaker 1: the affirmative in relation to Tottenham. There we go, Jemmy Stretcher, 484 00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:36,639 Speaker 1: CRV Sanks very much. Let's see you may Thanks for 485 00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:40,760 Speaker 1: having us.
