WEBVTT - Surveillance: Expect Easing Mid-2020, Misra Says

0:00:09.880 --> 0:00:13.800
<v Speaker 1>Welcome to the Bloomberg Surveillance Podcast. I'm Tom Keane Jay Lee.

0:00:27.640 --> 0:00:29.360
<v Speaker 1>Just a little bit of dollar weakness leaks. So the

0:00:29.440 --> 0:00:32.120
<v Speaker 1>data are in China stabilizing, just a little bit risk out,

0:00:32.159 --> 0:00:35.080
<v Speaker 1>the type picks up. Can this be a sustainable story?

0:00:35.120 --> 0:00:38.680
<v Speaker 1>Gun into I'm watching oil because oil is telling another story.

0:00:38.680 --> 0:00:41.440
<v Speaker 1>You're seeing a little bit of pressure. They're trying to

0:00:41.479 --> 0:00:44.680
<v Speaker 1>get above zero. But hard to say because right now

0:00:44.680 --> 0:00:47.519
<v Speaker 1>this trade deal isn't necessarily firmed up in any way,

0:00:47.520 --> 0:00:49.600
<v Speaker 1>shape or form and is not giving people confidence. But

0:00:49.640 --> 0:00:52.120
<v Speaker 1>for now, it's not just that, it's also the tone

0:00:52.240 --> 0:00:55.040
<v Speaker 1>out of Chinese manufacturing data as well as mother bids

0:00:55.080 --> 0:00:56.920
<v Speaker 1>as well. Bringing ed to know what figures with us

0:00:56.920 --> 0:00:58.520
<v Speaker 1>in the studio. Great to have him with us. Exam

0:00:58.600 --> 0:01:01.920
<v Speaker 1>Tate Data founder and see. Good morning to Jens, Thank you,

0:01:02.000 --> 0:01:05.520
<v Speaker 1>thank you your thoughts on the trade story, the trade truths,

0:01:05.600 --> 0:01:08.240
<v Speaker 1>the Phase one agreement. What are your ton of clients?

0:01:08.400 --> 0:01:12.160
<v Speaker 1>What is it? We have a deal I think even

0:01:12.160 --> 0:01:14.200
<v Speaker 1>though the document has not been signed, I think it's

0:01:14.200 --> 0:01:17.679
<v Speaker 1>going to be very, very difficult after the communication we've

0:01:17.680 --> 0:01:20.119
<v Speaker 1>had from both sides not to get this deal done.

0:01:20.640 --> 0:01:24.520
<v Speaker 1>So that's the direction we're heading, and it's a turning point.

0:01:24.600 --> 0:01:27.160
<v Speaker 1>Like we have some rollback of tariffs. It's not a

0:01:27.280 --> 0:01:31.360
<v Speaker 1>dramatic thing to lower from fifteen to seven and a

0:01:31.400 --> 0:01:34.000
<v Speaker 1>half on on a portion of the tariff stuff, but

0:01:34.040 --> 0:01:36.000
<v Speaker 1>it is a step in the right direction, and I

0:01:36.040 --> 0:01:39.399
<v Speaker 1>think it's important. So I think also just if you

0:01:39.440 --> 0:01:43.080
<v Speaker 1>think about the currency outlook, can China really allow their

0:01:43.080 --> 0:01:45.520
<v Speaker 1>currency to depreciate from here like we had that big

0:01:45.520 --> 0:01:48.720
<v Speaker 1>psychological break of seven a couple of months ago, and

0:01:48.760 --> 0:01:52.560
<v Speaker 1>now we're trading literally at seven zero zero. I don't

0:01:52.560 --> 0:01:55.639
<v Speaker 1>think we can have it trading weaker than than seven

0:01:55.680 --> 0:01:58.240
<v Speaker 1>on in a meaningful way in coming weeks. It's just

0:01:58.280 --> 0:01:59.760
<v Speaker 1>not going to make the deal look good. So I

0:01:59.760 --> 0:02:03.040
<v Speaker 1>think the downside is very capped for the Chinese currency.

0:02:03.040 --> 0:02:05.920
<v Speaker 1>That's very important for e M currencies globally, and it's

0:02:05.920 --> 0:02:08.080
<v Speaker 1>important for the dollar direction globally as well. So maybe

0:02:08.080 --> 0:02:10.880
<v Speaker 1>that fits in and this description what's going on with

0:02:10.880 --> 0:02:13.080
<v Speaker 1>the d H y as well well, with the trade.

0:02:13.240 --> 0:02:15.520
<v Speaker 1>There has to be an opportunity to play it. How

0:02:16.040 --> 0:02:19.720
<v Speaker 1>how do you play a phase one trade deal? I mean,

0:02:20.360 --> 0:02:23.880
<v Speaker 1>we want to clear uncertainty, we want to be more optimistic,

0:02:24.120 --> 0:02:27.800
<v Speaker 1>But then how do you affect that in currency pairs? Okay,

0:02:27.800 --> 0:02:32.720
<v Speaker 1>So I'll answer in two ways. First, like we can

0:02:32.800 --> 0:02:35.320
<v Speaker 1>we have some epirical models where you say, okay, what's

0:02:35.360 --> 0:02:38.200
<v Speaker 1>the new equilibrium based on these Teriffer leaves and that

0:02:38.320 --> 0:02:41.520
<v Speaker 1>gives you six ninety six. So there's a little bit

0:02:41.560 --> 0:02:45.440
<v Speaker 1>of appreciation store there. And then there's the broader global dynamic,

0:02:45.440 --> 0:02:49.320
<v Speaker 1>which is like an e M trending trade that can

0:02:49.400 --> 0:02:51.560
<v Speaker 1>can run much longer than that. John, I like that

0:02:51.600 --> 0:02:55.640
<v Speaker 1>you ask, is this sustainable? I you know, I'm struggling

0:02:55.639 --> 0:02:57.720
<v Speaker 1>with that question, and I'm struggling with the idea that

0:02:57.760 --> 0:03:00.560
<v Speaker 1>the dollar can continue to weaken because yes, we have

0:03:00.720 --> 0:03:03.040
<v Speaker 1>the fact that the December fifteen tariffs aren't going to

0:03:03.080 --> 0:03:06.480
<v Speaker 1>go into effect. But other than that, basically, this phase

0:03:06.520 --> 0:03:09.000
<v Speaker 1>one deal is let's figure it out as we go.

0:03:09.080 --> 0:03:13.760
<v Speaker 1>We'll roll back tariffs perhaps as China complies with different

0:03:14.080 --> 0:03:19.000
<v Speaker 1>different phases. How does this improve confidence among CEOs in

0:03:19.120 --> 0:03:21.320
<v Speaker 1>order to make investment, which is a key issue here, right,

0:03:22.240 --> 0:03:24.960
<v Speaker 1>So I think the CEO question is important that could

0:03:25.040 --> 0:03:27.840
<v Speaker 1>impact the timing when we get a lift to p

0:03:27.960 --> 0:03:29.520
<v Speaker 1>M I S and so forth. But there's a couple

0:03:29.520 --> 0:03:31.000
<v Speaker 1>of things going on at the same time. Right The

0:03:31.320 --> 0:03:34.840
<v Speaker 1>Brexit situation, where we have a removal of tail risk,

0:03:34.960 --> 0:03:36.800
<v Speaker 1>is also going to be helping to lift p M

0:03:36.840 --> 0:03:39.520
<v Speaker 1>I S in Europe, not in this week's numbers, but

0:03:39.880 --> 0:03:43.680
<v Speaker 1>probably in the next batch of two. So I I

0:03:43.720 --> 0:03:47.040
<v Speaker 1>do think in terms of global growth, we got to

0:03:47.400 --> 0:03:51.440
<v Speaker 1>very very low level of growth expectations, actually weaker than

0:03:51.480 --> 0:03:54.080
<v Speaker 1>in the downturn we had in two thousand fifteen sixteen,

0:03:54.760 --> 0:03:58.280
<v Speaker 1>so that the bar we have to beat is extremely low.

0:03:58.320 --> 0:04:00.320
<v Speaker 1>And I think there's a bunch of reason and now

0:04:00.360 --> 0:04:04.120
<v Speaker 1>I think that the momentum is improving. And for the dollar,

0:04:04.800 --> 0:04:07.000
<v Speaker 1>the most important veriable is global growth is much more

0:04:07.000 --> 0:04:09.200
<v Speaker 1>important than what the Fed is doing. So if we

0:04:09.280 --> 0:04:11.640
<v Speaker 1>have that bottom, I feel very strongly that the dollar

0:04:11.920 --> 0:04:14.760
<v Speaker 1>will trade weaker next year. So this is really important. Yends.

0:04:14.800 --> 0:04:16.680
<v Speaker 1>One thing you've done brilliantly over the last couple of

0:04:16.800 --> 0:04:20.360
<v Speaker 1>years is emphasize how little rank differentials tell you about

0:04:20.400 --> 0:04:23.000
<v Speaker 1>the direction of the dollar over the last couple of years.

0:04:23.000 --> 0:04:25.839
<v Speaker 1>So talked to me about global growth and flows, investor

0:04:25.880 --> 0:04:29.080
<v Speaker 1>flows into places like Europe, Asia, the committally unlocks and

0:04:29.120 --> 0:04:31.480
<v Speaker 1>dollar witness in the coming twelve months. Yes, so I think.

0:04:31.560 --> 0:04:33.360
<v Speaker 1>I think one of the things that's really important over

0:04:33.400 --> 0:04:37.839
<v Speaker 1>the last five six weeks is that you as investors

0:04:37.880 --> 0:04:40.240
<v Speaker 1>are starting to put more risk cappital to work in

0:04:40.360 --> 0:04:44.920
<v Speaker 1>international markets. So you as investors were incredibly cautious over

0:04:44.960 --> 0:04:48.560
<v Speaker 1>the summer and actually repatriated investments from abroad back to

0:04:48.640 --> 0:04:51.800
<v Speaker 1>the US, and that has changed. So this goes hand

0:04:51.880 --> 0:04:54.760
<v Speaker 1>in hand with this bottom of global growth expas expectations.

0:04:54.839 --> 0:04:58.560
<v Speaker 1>There's a very strong correlation between what those expectations are

0:04:58.680 --> 0:05:02.000
<v Speaker 1>and what those flows like, and that is key to

0:05:02.120 --> 0:05:04.360
<v Speaker 1>the dollar right. And that's the one of the factors

0:05:04.440 --> 0:05:07.359
<v Speaker 1>that can be separate from the right differentials is if

0:05:07.400 --> 0:05:10.479
<v Speaker 1>the equity flow goes more inter national. So, Tom Kane,

0:05:10.520 --> 0:05:13.680
<v Speaker 1>the key question is for your triple leverage cash fund, Uh,

0:05:13.920 --> 0:05:17.880
<v Speaker 1>is it going to be cash in dollars or hero

0:05:18.200 --> 0:05:21.960
<v Speaker 1>or or pound After your trip to Europe, Yeah, it's

0:05:22.080 --> 0:05:24.120
<v Speaker 1>the high point of the European trip was the interview

0:05:24.160 --> 0:05:28.080
<v Speaker 1>with a gentleman who runs Herod's over how to unload

0:05:28.120 --> 0:05:31.040
<v Speaker 1>the wall at Knight's Bridge. That was the high point.

0:05:31.560 --> 0:05:35.400
<v Speaker 1>Um did you pray tide that one missed? You were?

0:05:35.960 --> 0:05:39.000
<v Speaker 1>You were in the Manola Blonic up on the top floor.

0:05:39.360 --> 0:05:43.200
<v Speaker 1>The key us there. Yen's great, We're gonna get a

0:05:43.240 --> 0:05:46.080
<v Speaker 1>trade deal. We're gonna go week dollar. I still want

0:05:46.120 --> 0:05:47.840
<v Speaker 1>to know how to express it? Do I do it

0:05:47.920 --> 0:05:50.640
<v Speaker 1>through a bundled group of of em? Are there one

0:05:50.720 --> 0:05:53.320
<v Speaker 1>or two? Are they true Pacific? E? M are they

0:05:53.680 --> 0:05:57.240
<v Speaker 1>Eastern Europe? Are they and eleven? What are they? Okay? Yeah?

0:05:57.320 --> 0:06:01.760
<v Speaker 1>So I think initiative expresses was m so dollar max

0:06:01.880 --> 0:06:05.840
<v Speaker 1>is one dolla, Indonesia's one dollar, Taiwan is one. We

0:06:05.960 --> 0:06:08.280
<v Speaker 1>talked about it on the on the TV segment that

0:06:08.640 --> 0:06:11.360
<v Speaker 1>their places where they cannot intervene like them intervened in

0:06:11.400 --> 0:06:14.480
<v Speaker 1>the past. Taiwan could be a really interesting regime shift

0:06:14.520 --> 0:06:16.000
<v Speaker 1>on that front. So those are some of the ones

0:06:16.000 --> 0:06:18.160
<v Speaker 1>I would look at. Good, yes, thank you so much

0:06:19.600 --> 0:06:36.560
<v Speaker 1>today too short of visit, I do a little vamp

0:06:36.640 --> 0:06:39.040
<v Speaker 1>here in the United States of America before John Farroll

0:06:39.080 --> 0:06:41.400
<v Speaker 1>dies in with Lisa and water strategy. We can do

0:06:41.520 --> 0:06:44.440
<v Speaker 1>that with David Kelly, who's the JP Morgan. He's had

0:06:44.480 --> 0:06:46.760
<v Speaker 1>a global strategy for this, that and the other part

0:06:46.800 --> 0:06:49.120
<v Speaker 1>of the of the Great Beast, and he joins us

0:06:49.520 --> 0:06:52.800
<v Speaker 1>this morning. You you did a wonderful degree in Ireland

0:06:52.920 --> 0:06:56.240
<v Speaker 1>and then you enjoyed Lansing at Michigan. If you go

0:06:56.400 --> 0:07:00.840
<v Speaker 1>directly west from Lansing, Michigan, there's Kenosha, wiscons There's a

0:07:00.920 --> 0:07:04.040
<v Speaker 1>company there called snap On Tools, which is as basically

0:07:04.040 --> 0:07:08.040
<v Speaker 1>as you can get sixteen percent total return, sixteen percent

0:07:08.200 --> 0:07:13.120
<v Speaker 1>dividend growth, trading at next to nothing compared to this market.

0:07:13.640 --> 0:07:17.760
<v Speaker 1>Do I buy more snap On Tool Canona, Kenosha, Wisconsin,

0:07:18.160 --> 0:07:20.520
<v Speaker 1>Or do I end up buying some fancy pants tech

0:07:20.640 --> 0:07:24.400
<v Speaker 1>thing out on the West coast, Which I didn't think

0:07:24.400 --> 0:07:25.920
<v Speaker 1>that was a question you're gonna ask me this morning,

0:07:26.040 --> 0:07:31.040
<v Speaker 1>But that's the ar question after this year. I think,

0:07:31.160 --> 0:07:34.240
<v Speaker 1>I think there there's there are large distortions within US,

0:07:34.800 --> 0:07:36.720
<v Speaker 1>within the US market, but we've got to remember that

0:07:37.040 --> 0:07:39.040
<v Speaker 1>as it wasn't so long as you're in the momentum

0:07:39.200 --> 0:07:41.400
<v Speaker 1>up stage. I think there's more and more money going

0:07:41.480 --> 0:07:43.920
<v Speaker 1>into eat sid to pass the strategies, which is actually

0:07:44.000 --> 0:07:47.360
<v Speaker 1>helping momentum stocks. So I wouldn't want to make a

0:07:47.400 --> 0:07:49.320
<v Speaker 1>short term call. No, I think I think, I think

0:07:49.360 --> 0:07:53.280
<v Speaker 1>The bigger point for investors is international is cheap realts

0:07:53.280 --> 0:07:55.120
<v Speaker 1>of the US, and I think that I think you

0:07:55.160 --> 0:07:56.600
<v Speaker 1>know you need, you need to make your money these

0:07:56.640 --> 0:07:58.640
<v Speaker 1>big ascid allocation calls. I wanted to get that out

0:07:58.640 --> 0:08:00.800
<v Speaker 1>of the way, John, other than to say, the Spartans

0:08:00.840 --> 0:08:03.040
<v Speaker 1>of Michigan State have a hockey team this year to

0:08:03.200 --> 0:08:05.160
<v Speaker 1>die for, I feel like that's the only reason you

0:08:05.240 --> 0:08:08.680
<v Speaker 1>brought up that's right question, Spartan hockey. If you're not

0:08:08.800 --> 0:08:11.920
<v Speaker 1>familiar with some of the notes that David Kelly puts out,

0:08:12.000 --> 0:08:14.080
<v Speaker 1>please reach out to him because there's some great lines

0:08:14.120 --> 0:08:16.320
<v Speaker 1>in there. There's an old saying that the reason some

0:08:16.440 --> 0:08:18.480
<v Speaker 1>people bash their heads against the wall is because it

0:08:18.520 --> 0:08:22.080
<v Speaker 1>feels so good when they stop. What do you referring to, David,

0:08:22.120 --> 0:08:24.600
<v Speaker 1>I referring to all the all this progress on trade.

0:08:24.680 --> 0:08:26.680
<v Speaker 1>I mean, if you go back four years ago, we

0:08:26.760 --> 0:08:29.600
<v Speaker 1>didn't have brexit. We did we had an old nafter

0:08:30.000 --> 0:08:32.079
<v Speaker 1>and we didn't have trade war in China. And now

0:08:32.160 --> 0:08:34.199
<v Speaker 1>we've got some We've got a U. S m c

0:08:34.320 --> 0:08:36.040
<v Speaker 1>A which looks like it's going to pass to deal

0:08:36.120 --> 0:08:39.400
<v Speaker 1>with sort of an after one point zero zero zero

0:08:39.559 --> 0:08:43.800
<v Speaker 1>one we've got. I think Brexit will finally be resolved

0:08:43.840 --> 0:08:48.560
<v Speaker 1>in a more comfortable way than people fear um and uh,

0:08:49.040 --> 0:08:50.800
<v Speaker 1>you know, we we have a phase one deal with

0:08:50.920 --> 0:08:53.199
<v Speaker 1>China to move back a few steps on the on

0:08:53.240 --> 0:08:55.160
<v Speaker 1>the road we were on. But in the end, all

0:08:55.200 --> 0:08:58.439
<v Speaker 1>it's doing is, you know, reducing the amount of mutulation

0:08:58.520 --> 0:09:02.160
<v Speaker 1>we were doing to ourselves. It's not really progress in

0:09:02.800 --> 0:09:04.880
<v Speaker 1>the long scheme of things. Let's let's continue with this

0:09:05.040 --> 0:09:07.400
<v Speaker 1>metaphor of banging your head against the wall, uh, and

0:09:07.480 --> 0:09:09.839
<v Speaker 1>then stopping and being really happy that you stopped. The

0:09:09.960 --> 0:09:12.640
<v Speaker 1>question is we're now getting back to can the real

0:09:12.720 --> 0:09:16.079
<v Speaker 1>global economy generate the kind of growth that is baked

0:09:16.160 --> 0:09:19.640
<v Speaker 1>into the valuations and equities and risk assets in and

0:09:19.760 --> 0:09:23.120
<v Speaker 1>right now the consensus seems to be yes, given the

0:09:23.200 --> 0:09:26.000
<v Speaker 1>certainty that we're getting from the trade truth. But do

0:09:26.080 --> 0:09:28.600
<v Speaker 1>you disagree based on this idea that we're not moving

0:09:28.760 --> 0:09:31.199
<v Speaker 1>forward necessarily, we're just not banging our head against the

0:09:31.240 --> 0:09:32.640
<v Speaker 1>wall now? I think no, I think we. I think

0:09:32.679 --> 0:09:34.360
<v Speaker 1>you have to have a different story somewhat on the

0:09:34.400 --> 0:09:37.360
<v Speaker 1>economy and on markets. Uh. It is true that in

0:09:37.679 --> 0:09:40.600
<v Speaker 1>absolute terms valuations are expensive, but if you look at

0:09:40.640 --> 0:09:44.199
<v Speaker 1>it relative to to cash, relative to bonds around the world,

0:09:44.559 --> 0:09:47.079
<v Speaker 1>valuations are cheap, and so long as you buy the

0:09:47.240 --> 0:09:49.120
<v Speaker 1>idea that the global economy is going to grow slowly

0:09:49.160 --> 0:09:51.959
<v Speaker 1>but not generate inflation, you're gonna have these low rates.

0:09:51.960 --> 0:09:54.199
<v Speaker 1>You're gonna have central banks falling over themselves to be easy.

0:09:54.440 --> 0:09:56.280
<v Speaker 1>And that still means that there's nowhere else in the

0:09:56.320 --> 0:09:59.160
<v Speaker 1>money to go. Some money is getting funneled into into

0:09:59.200 --> 0:10:01.600
<v Speaker 1>global equities, so let's put some capital to work. Then

0:10:01.720 --> 0:10:05.839
<v Speaker 1>the regional breakdown gun into Europe, Asia AM. How you

0:10:05.960 --> 0:10:08.760
<v Speaker 1>thinking about that breakdown at the moment, David, I would

0:10:08.920 --> 0:10:15.440
<v Speaker 1>be uh, EM first, probably, UM, Yam Asia first, probably,

0:10:15.480 --> 0:10:20.319
<v Speaker 1>and then uh Europe, Japan, um, you know, second, and

0:10:20.360 --> 0:10:21.920
<v Speaker 1>the third I think that I think one of the

0:10:22.040 --> 0:10:25.120
<v Speaker 1>key things is rising trade tensions hurt the rest of

0:10:25.120 --> 0:10:27.599
<v Speaker 1>the world more than they hurt the US, and that

0:10:27.720 --> 0:10:31.360
<v Speaker 1>they also contribute to higher dollar. Falling trade tensions therefore

0:10:31.400 --> 0:10:34.839
<v Speaker 1>give you a lower dollar and also benefit the big

0:10:34.880 --> 0:10:37.120
<v Speaker 1>trade of the world, which your EM countries. So that's

0:10:37.160 --> 0:10:38.960
<v Speaker 1>where I think you'll see the bands, both in terms

0:10:39.000 --> 0:10:41.560
<v Speaker 1>of lower dollar and better performance from e M stocks.

0:10:41.600 --> 0:10:43.160
<v Speaker 1>That's kind of where I want to be over words, David,

0:10:43.160 --> 0:10:45.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm struggling right now because I'm thinking about what you're saying.

0:10:45.679 --> 0:10:48.920
<v Speaker 1>This idea of low inflation, central bank stimulating risk acids

0:10:49.160 --> 0:10:52.120
<v Speaker 1>outlook relatively cheap. That's been a story for ten years.

0:10:52.480 --> 0:10:54.760
<v Speaker 1>At what point does that run out? At what point

0:10:54.840 --> 0:10:57.480
<v Speaker 1>does this create a real problem. Well, it creates a

0:10:57.520 --> 0:10:59.559
<v Speaker 1>problem if inflation comes back. But there's a there's a

0:10:59.559 --> 0:11:01.319
<v Speaker 1>funny thing going on in the global economy, and that

0:11:01.440 --> 0:11:03.959
<v Speaker 1>is that income is getting less and less equally distributed.

0:11:04.360 --> 0:11:06.719
<v Speaker 1>And the you know, aggregate demand is when people with

0:11:06.880 --> 0:11:08.880
<v Speaker 1>money want to buy stuff. And the problem in in

0:11:08.920 --> 0:11:10.400
<v Speaker 1>the global economy right now as the people who have

0:11:10.440 --> 0:11:12.080
<v Speaker 1>money don't want to buy stuff, and the people want

0:11:12.120 --> 0:11:13.920
<v Speaker 1>to buy stuff don't have money. And so long as

0:11:13.960 --> 0:11:18.079
<v Speaker 1>that that income income inequality grows, you're actually drat. You

0:11:18.120 --> 0:11:20.120
<v Speaker 1>don't have enough aggregate demand to the economy. That's what's

0:11:20.160 --> 0:11:22.679
<v Speaker 1>holding inflation though. So you know, the the irony is

0:11:22.760 --> 0:11:24.839
<v Speaker 1>if you if we ever do fix the problem for

0:11:25.160 --> 0:11:28.320
<v Speaker 1>middle income consumers, for lower income consumers, then we'll have inflation,

0:11:28.440 --> 0:11:33.079
<v Speaker 1>and then that's The new Foreign Affairs Magazine is absolutely exquisite.

0:11:33.080 --> 0:11:35.679
<v Speaker 1>It's the strongest issue they've ever done, including the no

0:11:35.760 --> 0:11:39.679
<v Speaker 1>about Lawyer's jerryzy Mueller's in there on capitalism. How do

0:11:39.760 --> 0:11:45.000
<v Speaker 1>you affect a policy to lift the have nots without

0:11:45.160 --> 0:11:51.559
<v Speaker 1>diminishing the hats. Well, it's it's productivity. You're trying to

0:11:51.840 --> 0:11:54.760
<v Speaker 1>reduce some of the nonproductive things you do. And we've

0:11:55.040 --> 0:11:57.319
<v Speaker 1>got a lot of negative some games going on in

0:11:57.360 --> 0:12:01.280
<v Speaker 1>the world in things like defense, in trade, trade, trade, yeah,

0:12:01.480 --> 0:12:03.000
<v Speaker 1>all these things. So you're try and get rid of

0:12:03.040 --> 0:12:05.840
<v Speaker 1>the things that are hurting you. You introduce more certainty,

0:12:06.040 --> 0:12:08.560
<v Speaker 1>I think what you you also try to reduce currency

0:12:08.600 --> 0:12:10.400
<v Speaker 1>of volatility. I mean, we should get back to a

0:12:10.440 --> 0:12:14.600
<v Speaker 1>situation where the United States, Europe, China are actually talking about,

0:12:14.920 --> 0:12:16.760
<v Speaker 1>you know, exchange rates and trying to make this this

0:12:17.400 --> 0:12:19.760
<v Speaker 1>the less vo also goes right now, everybody's keeping rates low,

0:12:20.760 --> 0:12:23.160
<v Speaker 1>unreasonably low to try and push our currency down, and

0:12:23.240 --> 0:12:26.120
<v Speaker 1>that is I think in the end, just distorting for

0:12:26.160 --> 0:12:28.240
<v Speaker 1>the global economy. Can we do a ten year bet,

0:12:28.559 --> 0:12:29.760
<v Speaker 1>and that's what it is. It's going to be a

0:12:29.800 --> 0:12:31.319
<v Speaker 1>bit of a gamble. Let's do a ten year bet.

0:12:32.120 --> 0:12:34.000
<v Speaker 1>Where a rights going to be at the e C

0:12:34.200 --> 0:12:38.360
<v Speaker 1>Bay in ten years time? Higher or lower? I think

0:12:38.720 --> 0:12:40.920
<v Speaker 1>they could hardly be lower, so they will be higher.

0:12:40.960 --> 0:12:42.679
<v Speaker 1>The question is are they a little bit higher or

0:12:42.760 --> 0:12:44.840
<v Speaker 1>much higher. And that really gets back to the first

0:12:44.920 --> 0:12:47.319
<v Speaker 1>question I'm asking because eventually, you know, think about this

0:12:47.400 --> 0:12:50.000
<v Speaker 1>growth and financial assets. What is the financial asset. Of

0:12:50.040 --> 0:12:51.960
<v Speaker 1>financial asset is a coupon, which says that you can

0:12:52.040 --> 0:12:54.200
<v Speaker 1>buy some part of the goods and services produced by

0:12:54.200 --> 0:12:56.600
<v Speaker 1>the real economy. Now, what we've seen is an explosion

0:12:56.600 --> 0:12:59.680
<v Speaker 1>of the value of financial assets while the global economy

0:12:59.720 --> 0:13:02.760
<v Speaker 1>is kind like a tortoise. Eventually, when people cash in

0:13:02.800 --> 0:13:05.360
<v Speaker 1>those assets, you've got an inflation problem. We don't have

0:13:05.440 --> 0:13:07.880
<v Speaker 1>it right now, but if you're gonna ask me, could

0:13:07.920 --> 0:13:10.240
<v Speaker 1>we have that within the next ten years in Europe, Orange,

0:13:10.280 --> 0:13:11.800
<v Speaker 1>in the United States, yes we could. Well, let's have

0:13:11.840 --> 0:13:15.800
<v Speaker 1>the same question for the Federal Reserve. Then at the

0:13:15.840 --> 0:13:18.720
<v Speaker 1>Fed in the next ten years. I think again, by

0:13:18.800 --> 0:13:20.520
<v Speaker 1>the end of ten years, I think will be higher

0:13:20.559 --> 0:13:22.720
<v Speaker 1>than that, because that is it's still it's it's crazy,

0:13:22.760 --> 0:13:24.880
<v Speaker 1>it's it's a less than the rate of inflation. I mean,

0:13:25.200 --> 0:13:27.839
<v Speaker 1>you know, the whole the whole concept of saving is

0:13:27.920 --> 0:13:30.079
<v Speaker 1>that I don't eat ten apples today because you will

0:13:30.120 --> 0:13:32.160
<v Speaker 1>give me eleven apples in the future. What we're telling

0:13:32.200 --> 0:13:34.920
<v Speaker 1>people today is, you know, don't consume ten apples today

0:13:34.920 --> 0:13:36.839
<v Speaker 1>because we'll give you nine apples in the future. That

0:13:37.040 --> 0:13:39.160
<v Speaker 1>is nuts and it is not sustainable. Just to put

0:13:39.440 --> 0:13:40.959
<v Speaker 1>the reason I asked this is Bank of America have

0:13:41.000 --> 0:13:43.400
<v Speaker 1>come out with a fantastic pace about the last ten years.

0:13:43.480 --> 0:13:46.280
<v Speaker 1>What performed well? What didn't perform well? Which was the

0:13:46.320 --> 0:13:49.560
<v Speaker 1>most activist central bank? Which was the least activist central bank,

0:13:49.840 --> 0:13:52.880
<v Speaker 1>the least active if central bank worldwide over the last

0:13:52.920 --> 0:13:57.480
<v Speaker 1>ten years Japan one right cut, no hikes, and the

0:13:57.559 --> 0:13:59.760
<v Speaker 1>same is probably true for the ten years previous to that.

0:13:59.840 --> 0:14:01.640
<v Speaker 1>As wow that once we get down to these kind

0:14:01.679 --> 0:14:04.280
<v Speaker 1>of levels, we're stuck here. Why is that going to

0:14:04.320 --> 0:14:06.319
<v Speaker 1>be different for Europe, different from the United States of

0:14:06.400 --> 0:14:10.360
<v Speaker 1>the next decade. Well, because, as I said, it is

0:14:10.600 --> 0:14:15.600
<v Speaker 1>it is fostering a boom in financial assets. And eventually,

0:14:15.960 --> 0:14:18.559
<v Speaker 1>if those financial assets end up in the hands of

0:14:18.640 --> 0:14:20.560
<v Speaker 1>people who actually want to spend the money rather than

0:14:20.640 --> 0:14:23.240
<v Speaker 1>save the money, then you have a growth and inflation.

0:14:23.280 --> 0:14:24.960
<v Speaker 1>And the key thing here is inflation. I mean, I

0:14:25.040 --> 0:14:27.240
<v Speaker 1>know the Japanese have been looking for inflation, but if

0:14:27.240 --> 0:14:31.880
<v Speaker 1>they ever distributed income and it's somebody galtarian more egalitarian

0:14:32.280 --> 0:14:34.640
<v Speaker 1>in Japan, but just used to if you get more

0:14:34.680 --> 0:14:38.640
<v Speaker 1>consumers spending going and among lower middle incoln consumers, then

0:14:38.640 --> 0:14:41.280
<v Speaker 1>you could end up inflation, and that's what triggers so

0:14:41.480 --> 0:14:43.480
<v Speaker 1>changes this whole story. You and I know each other

0:14:43.600 --> 0:14:46.240
<v Speaker 1>long agoing far away in Boston when a CD was

0:14:46.360 --> 0:14:50.480
<v Speaker 1>nine or seven percent. It ain't there anymore. Is there

0:14:50.560 --> 0:14:56.480
<v Speaker 1>any evidence of central bank quote unquote reflate? Um? Well,

0:14:56.520 --> 0:14:59.080
<v Speaker 1>they push push up short term rates if if they

0:14:59.200 --> 0:15:00.920
<v Speaker 1>if they want to the home as they run, they

0:15:01.240 --> 0:15:03.280
<v Speaker 1>lose their nerve. I mean, you know, did the Federal

0:15:03.280 --> 0:15:05.400
<v Speaker 1>Reserve really need to ease three times this year? And no,

0:15:06.720 --> 0:15:09.320
<v Speaker 1>but they did it. Um So can they do it? Yes?

0:15:09.400 --> 0:15:11.320
<v Speaker 1>They can push up short term rates and and in

0:15:11.360 --> 0:15:13.120
<v Speaker 1>the end I think that they I think they should

0:15:13.920 --> 0:15:15.600
<v Speaker 1>because I think we should get back to more normal

0:15:15.640 --> 0:15:20.920
<v Speaker 1>monetary polican that will in the end reduce distortions around

0:15:20.920 --> 0:15:22.960
<v Speaker 1>the global economy. But they can do it. I'm not

0:15:23.000 --> 0:15:25.360
<v Speaker 1>saying they're going to next time. David Kelly on where

0:15:25.400 --> 0:15:27.280
<v Speaker 1>the Irish border is, I don't know where it is.

0:15:27.360 --> 0:15:29.960
<v Speaker 1>After the election, maybe we'll talk to him about that.

0:15:29.960 --> 0:15:31.320
<v Speaker 1>I think I think it's I think it's now in

0:15:31.360 --> 0:15:36.240
<v Speaker 1>the Irish seats. David Kelly, thank you so much, as always,

0:15:36.240 --> 0:15:51.320
<v Speaker 1>the GMP. Morgan just thrilled that time. Here. What we

0:15:51.440 --> 0:15:53.560
<v Speaker 1>need now not a clinic on the equity markets. Have

0:15:53.680 --> 0:15:55.400
<v Speaker 1>done that a little bit this morning, but John, I

0:15:55.480 --> 0:15:58.440
<v Speaker 1>think we've really got to dive into full faith and credit.

0:15:58.640 --> 0:16:00.040
<v Speaker 1>We did, and we can do that with pretty a

0:16:00.080 --> 0:16:02.440
<v Speaker 1>misery club ahead of right strategy at t D Security

0:16:02.520 --> 0:16:04.360
<v Speaker 1>is pretty great to have you with the summer program.

0:16:04.560 --> 0:16:06.840
<v Speaker 1>Tom's got a few questions on Repope, but let's start

0:16:06.960 --> 0:16:09.440
<v Speaker 1>this conversation where we picked up at the top of

0:16:09.480 --> 0:16:12.400
<v Speaker 1>the hour ten year rates one eighty four, no big

0:16:12.480 --> 0:16:16.840
<v Speaker 1>shift higher? Why so thanks for having me. I'll always

0:16:17.080 --> 0:16:19.600
<v Speaker 1>good to chat with you all. Um. So you know

0:16:19.760 --> 0:16:22.320
<v Speaker 1>what we heard on Friday in terms of the deal,

0:16:22.480 --> 0:16:26.040
<v Speaker 1>it's phase one. It's agricultural purchases. I mean, does it

0:16:26.160 --> 0:16:30.320
<v Speaker 1>remove entire business uncertainty around tariffs for all of next

0:16:30.400 --> 0:16:34.240
<v Speaker 1>year and and beyond, I would argue not. I think

0:16:34.360 --> 0:16:36.520
<v Speaker 1>just two weeks ago we heard from the President that

0:16:36.600 --> 0:16:39.600
<v Speaker 1>we were going to pose tariffs on Brazil and Argentina.

0:16:40.120 --> 0:16:43.360
<v Speaker 1>You know, the French tariffs are out there our viewers.

0:16:43.600 --> 0:16:46.360
<v Speaker 1>That's all we're gonna get for for US. China is

0:16:46.400 --> 0:16:48.040
<v Speaker 1>going to be phase one. I mean it took them

0:16:48.560 --> 0:16:51.440
<v Speaker 1>like three months after we had the deal in principle

0:16:51.760 --> 0:16:54.560
<v Speaker 1>to actually get this somewhat written down, so to try

0:16:54.600 --> 0:16:56.920
<v Speaker 1>and get Phase two, phase three, which are all much

0:16:57.000 --> 0:17:00.160
<v Speaker 1>more difficult structural issues. Our thought as were not she's

0:17:00.200 --> 0:17:02.960
<v Speaker 1>going to get this until the election. So the global

0:17:03.080 --> 0:17:06.080
<v Speaker 1>growth dynamic, I think you know it did take away.

0:17:06.160 --> 0:17:08.280
<v Speaker 1>I think some of the negative or or the the

0:17:08.359 --> 0:17:10.960
<v Speaker 1>worst case scenario has been removed. I think the escalation

0:17:11.000 --> 0:17:14.120
<v Speaker 1>of tariffs, which we've all nervous, could that happen on Sunday?

0:17:14.520 --> 0:17:16.840
<v Speaker 1>That's been taken off, and therefore I think equity is

0:17:16.880 --> 0:17:19.199
<v Speaker 1>liked it. But for rates to sell off much more

0:17:19.280 --> 0:17:21.879
<v Speaker 1>from here, I think we need clear evidence that business

0:17:21.960 --> 0:17:25.159
<v Speaker 1>uncertainty is going away, that business investment is going to

0:17:25.240 --> 0:17:28.160
<v Speaker 1>pick up, and the consumer remains resilient. I think all

0:17:28.240 --> 0:17:31.440
<v Speaker 1>of those questions are still there. So I would argue

0:17:31.440 --> 0:17:34.879
<v Speaker 1>you near the high end of the rate range if

0:17:34.920 --> 0:17:38.159
<v Speaker 1>that's the case. And is the rates market sending a

0:17:38.359 --> 0:17:41.240
<v Speaker 1>very different signal than the equity market in terms of

0:17:42.080 --> 0:17:45.760
<v Speaker 1>what we can expect with growth. Yes, I think you know,

0:17:45.880 --> 0:17:48.280
<v Speaker 1>to some extent, both rates and equities are telling you

0:17:48.400 --> 0:17:51.320
<v Speaker 1>that the FED is very unlikely to take back the

0:17:51.400 --> 0:17:54.639
<v Speaker 1>insurance cuts. So even if the consumer remains resilient. I

0:17:54.680 --> 0:17:56.320
<v Speaker 1>think what we saw in the dot plot is very

0:17:56.359 --> 0:17:59.280
<v Speaker 1>clear even the Hawks don't really want to take back

0:17:59.400 --> 0:18:02.440
<v Speaker 1>all of the joan cuts. So if that's a positive

0:18:02.520 --> 0:18:04.960
<v Speaker 1>tail wind for equities or or all risk asses, I

0:18:05.000 --> 0:18:07.520
<v Speaker 1>think that's fair and and and that tells you why

0:18:07.640 --> 0:18:09.880
<v Speaker 1>interest rate is probably do you know the tenure doesn't

0:18:09.880 --> 0:18:12.240
<v Speaker 1>go above two percent. Where I think the signals are

0:18:12.280 --> 0:18:15.560
<v Speaker 1>slightly different is the fact that the equity market takes

0:18:15.640 --> 0:18:18.399
<v Speaker 1>the straight deal to say okay, all downside risks behind us,

0:18:18.920 --> 0:18:20.960
<v Speaker 1>and the race market saying you know, not so fast.

0:18:21.520 --> 0:18:25.560
<v Speaker 1>All we've had is one tail risk being removed. We

0:18:25.720 --> 0:18:27.520
<v Speaker 1>still have to deal with them. And look at the

0:18:27.600 --> 0:18:30.080
<v Speaker 1>US one PM. I'm actually very surprised that Treasury is

0:18:30.160 --> 0:18:32.480
<v Speaker 1>this morning. I want to ignore that and just sort

0:18:32.520 --> 0:18:35.399
<v Speaker 1>of go off the China positive data. There's still a

0:18:35.480 --> 0:18:38.159
<v Speaker 1>lot of growth global growth headwinds, I think for the

0:18:38.320 --> 0:18:41.760
<v Speaker 1>US next year again into there's a view that the

0:18:41.800 --> 0:18:43.800
<v Speaker 1>FED is on hold, on hold through the whole of

0:18:43.800 --> 0:18:45.440
<v Speaker 1>the year. I get the sense from you over the

0:18:45.520 --> 0:18:47.000
<v Speaker 1>last couple of months that you don't think they are

0:18:47.040 --> 0:18:48.440
<v Speaker 1>on hold. In fact, you think right to go on

0:18:48.480 --> 0:18:52.200
<v Speaker 1>the other way, lower again, you're still thinking that prayer.

0:18:53.320 --> 0:18:55.480
<v Speaker 1>I still do. I think the FED has told us

0:18:55.520 --> 0:18:57.280
<v Speaker 1>that the bar to cut is higher than it was

0:18:57.359 --> 0:18:59.800
<v Speaker 1>over the last couple of months, so you know that's fair.

0:19:00.560 --> 0:19:04.040
<v Speaker 1>But if the consumer shows any signs of losing momentum,

0:19:04.480 --> 0:19:06.720
<v Speaker 1>and this is where I think the business investment side

0:19:06.840 --> 0:19:09.680
<v Speaker 1>is key, because it's very clear that US business investment

0:19:09.720 --> 0:19:13.320
<v Speaker 1>has slowed pretty dramatically, don't you because of the insert.

0:19:13.359 --> 0:19:16.160
<v Speaker 1>I would argue to an uncertainty shock, and that takes

0:19:16.200 --> 0:19:18.600
<v Speaker 1>a while, and if that doesn't go away, and at

0:19:18.680 --> 0:19:20.440
<v Speaker 1>some point it's going to affect the labor market and

0:19:20.520 --> 0:19:22.600
<v Speaker 1>therefore the consumer. So we expect the fact to actually

0:19:22.640 --> 0:19:25.639
<v Speaker 1>restart easing by the middle of next year. Something we

0:19:25.720 --> 0:19:28.320
<v Speaker 1>try to do on Bloomberg surveillance is speak to grizzled

0:19:28.400 --> 0:19:32.600
<v Speaker 1>pros like Priam of TV Securities about whatever the uproar

0:19:32.680 --> 0:19:35.920
<v Speaker 1>of the moment is. PREA, based on my reading coming

0:19:36.000 --> 0:19:39.159
<v Speaker 1>back among particularly the Gloom crew, the world's gonna end

0:19:39.720 --> 0:19:42.440
<v Speaker 1>like John at eleven am this morning or something that

0:19:42.920 --> 0:19:48.359
<v Speaker 1>we dashed into the Repo liquidity world and today or

0:19:48.480 --> 0:19:51.800
<v Speaker 1>Wednesday you get the video up before the world end, Pria,

0:19:52.480 --> 0:19:55.480
<v Speaker 1>should we have a sweat about the repo market in

0:19:55.600 --> 0:19:59.000
<v Speaker 1>the year end, So this is where you know, I

0:19:59.080 --> 0:20:01.959
<v Speaker 1>am worried about the onomy, But on repot, I actually

0:20:02.040 --> 0:20:05.520
<v Speaker 1>think the FED has understood what's happening and they're using

0:20:05.680 --> 0:20:08.240
<v Speaker 1>all the tools they have, and I think these tools

0:20:08.240 --> 0:20:11.000
<v Speaker 1>are effective. So I'm actually not as worried on the

0:20:11.080 --> 0:20:14.480
<v Speaker 1>repot year end and all strategies or or report people

0:20:14.520 --> 0:20:16.919
<v Speaker 1>are sort of divided into two gamps. Those I think

0:20:16.960 --> 0:20:19.000
<v Speaker 1>it's all going to end on December thirty one. It's

0:20:19.119 --> 0:20:21.720
<v Speaker 1>as bad as last year. I actually think last year

0:20:21.840 --> 0:20:24.040
<v Speaker 1>was very different. You had the thread that was letting

0:20:24.040 --> 0:20:26.840
<v Speaker 1>the portfolio run off. They were not doing any temporary

0:20:26.880 --> 0:20:29.640
<v Speaker 1>repo operations. What we heard last week was the FED

0:20:29.760 --> 0:20:32.480
<v Speaker 1>is actually now pumping almost five hundred billion of repot

0:20:32.520 --> 0:20:36.000
<v Speaker 1>around the turn and some dealers, So some dealers are

0:20:36.040 --> 0:20:39.600
<v Speaker 1>obviously capital constrained, balance sheet constraint, but the fact that

0:20:39.680 --> 0:20:42.560
<v Speaker 1>these operations are all getting oversubscribe actually tells me that

0:20:42.960 --> 0:20:44.840
<v Speaker 1>there are other dealers out there who are able to

0:20:44.920 --> 0:20:48.199
<v Speaker 1>expand their balance sheets, take the FED liquidity and distributed

0:20:48.240 --> 0:20:50.960
<v Speaker 1>in the system. So with the fact that the FED

0:20:51.080 --> 0:20:54.560
<v Speaker 1>is using this, plus they're adding to reserves permanently, I

0:20:54.640 --> 0:20:57.480
<v Speaker 1>think they've understood, they've acknowledged the problem, which is what

0:20:57.640 --> 0:21:01.119
<v Speaker 1>resulted in that September spike, and they're addressing it. This

0:21:01.280 --> 0:21:03.119
<v Speaker 1>raise is a really interesting question. If you take the

0:21:03.600 --> 0:21:06.080
<v Speaker 1>catastrophic view off the table, the end of the world,

0:21:06.600 --> 0:21:10.000
<v Speaker 1>that repo will ignite that we've all been worried about.

0:21:10.440 --> 0:21:12.159
<v Speaker 1>If you take that off the table, Let's take a

0:21:12.200 --> 0:21:15.520
<v Speaker 1>look at that half trillion dollars of stimulus essentially at

0:21:15.520 --> 0:21:18.280
<v Speaker 1>the Federal Reserve is pumped into the financial system, especially

0:21:18.640 --> 0:21:21.720
<v Speaker 1>if dealers are using it to make cheap loans. How

0:21:21.840 --> 0:21:24.320
<v Speaker 1>much is that supporting risk assets? How much has that

0:21:24.600 --> 0:21:27.879
<v Speaker 1>driven the rally more than people have really given credit to.

0:21:29.480 --> 0:21:31.240
<v Speaker 1>So you know, the FED will keep telling us that

0:21:31.359 --> 0:21:34.399
<v Speaker 1>it's not quee, but if you look at reserves or

0:21:34.440 --> 0:21:36.359
<v Speaker 1>look at the balon sheet, the FED balon sheet is

0:21:36.400 --> 0:21:39.240
<v Speaker 1>growing now. I actually don't agree that this should be

0:21:39.359 --> 0:21:42.240
<v Speaker 1>very positive for risk assets, but it's a sentiment issue.

0:21:42.480 --> 0:21:44.240
<v Speaker 1>We've heard from the FED for the last ten years

0:21:44.320 --> 0:21:47.680
<v Speaker 1>that QUI helps discuss it, and I think that that

0:21:47.840 --> 0:21:51.200
<v Speaker 1>is part of it. Um it's definitely stimulus into the

0:21:51.240 --> 0:21:54.000
<v Speaker 1>report market. I don't know if it should result in

0:21:54.080 --> 0:21:56.440
<v Speaker 1>highest stock market, but I think it is absolutely the

0:21:56.800 --> 0:21:58.760
<v Speaker 1>FAED banon sheet is growing by a lot over the

0:21:58.840 --> 0:22:02.000
<v Speaker 1>next month. Does that vector matter? I mean, does the

0:22:02.119 --> 0:22:04.680
<v Speaker 1>rate of change of the FED balance sheet growth matter?

0:22:04.720 --> 0:22:07.200
<v Speaker 1>If they do it in a gradual, measured way, does

0:22:07.280 --> 0:22:09.199
<v Speaker 1>that solve a lot of problems that you don't get

0:22:09.280 --> 0:22:12.080
<v Speaker 1>with the abruptness that we've seen the last number of quarters.

0:22:13.080 --> 0:22:16.080
<v Speaker 1>So the study is between stock and flow. They're fairly mixed.

0:22:16.359 --> 0:22:19.560
<v Speaker 1>I would argue the combination of both the stock and

0:22:19.680 --> 0:22:22.159
<v Speaker 1>the flow that matters. But you know, between over the

0:22:22.280 --> 0:22:25.200
<v Speaker 1>last two months, they've already injected two billion. Remember they're

0:22:25.200 --> 0:22:27.840
<v Speaker 1>also buying bills, and my viewers, I know they're only

0:22:27.920 --> 0:22:30.040
<v Speaker 1>staying into the second quarter. I think they're buying bills

0:22:30.040 --> 0:22:33.800
<v Speaker 1>almost all of next year because in an ample reserved regime,

0:22:34.080 --> 0:22:37.400
<v Speaker 1>the FED operations should not happen. So there's five hundred billion,

0:22:37.480 --> 0:22:39.760
<v Speaker 1>let's say, or five hundred billion gets used. That means

0:22:39.800 --> 0:22:42.399
<v Speaker 1>the FED needs to buy five billions of bills to

0:22:42.600 --> 0:22:46.280
<v Speaker 1>offset these thos over time. So that's a pretty big

0:22:46.359 --> 0:22:48.440
<v Speaker 1>stock and flow whichever way you look at it is

0:22:48.560 --> 0:22:51.320
<v Speaker 1>a huge increase in the balance sheet. Terrific briefing, Thank

0:22:51.359 --> 0:22:55.840
<v Speaker 1>you so much. Pretty misretenious Primities, Head of Global Rate Strategy.

0:23:10.080 --> 0:23:12.240
<v Speaker 1>This is a joy, Henry, the trades with the Surveta

0:23:12.359 --> 0:23:15.680
<v Speaker 1>partners here with futures up fifteen, futures up fifty nine.

0:23:16.080 --> 0:23:18.399
<v Speaker 1>And the joy of Henrietta on a Monday morning is

0:23:18.440 --> 0:23:20.080
<v Speaker 1>you don't have time to read, and she's got a

0:23:20.160 --> 0:23:23.680
<v Speaker 1>note that's wicked, concise and right at the top. Henrietta,

0:23:23.720 --> 0:23:28.359
<v Speaker 1>you nail it. How about that enforcement mechanism? The Mexicans

0:23:28.400 --> 0:23:31.760
<v Speaker 1>are flying north because they're worried about the enforcement mechanism

0:23:31.880 --> 0:23:34.639
<v Speaker 1>of labor in Mexico and that I don't even know

0:23:34.760 --> 0:23:37.920
<v Speaker 1>what the enforcement mechanism is of phase one or Phase

0:23:38.000 --> 0:23:42.360
<v Speaker 1>twelve or whatever. How are we doing on enforcement mechanisms

0:23:42.800 --> 0:23:46.840
<v Speaker 1>in a trade negotiation? Thanks so much for having me time. Well,

0:23:47.400 --> 0:23:50.280
<v Speaker 1>the interesting thing about enforcement mechanisms, UM, and the way

0:23:50.359 --> 0:23:52.480
<v Speaker 1>that it's been rolled out by Usdr Lifehiser over the

0:23:52.520 --> 0:23:55.760
<v Speaker 1>weekend sounds very much like what we expected. UM. The

0:23:55.840 --> 0:23:59.240
<v Speaker 1>most important word here is timing. It takes time to

0:23:59.600 --> 0:24:02.440
<v Speaker 1>inforce something, just a natural component of what it means

0:24:02.520 --> 0:24:05.600
<v Speaker 1>to enforce something. So the way that I'm expecting this

0:24:05.720 --> 0:24:08.080
<v Speaker 1>to roll out for investors to watch is that on

0:24:08.200 --> 0:24:10.640
<v Speaker 1>a one month, a two months and then a six

0:24:10.760 --> 0:24:14.000
<v Speaker 1>month basis, there's going to be a sort of rolling

0:24:14.119 --> 0:24:17.560
<v Speaker 1>series of checks and balances, much like what they're attempting

0:24:17.600 --> 0:24:20.040
<v Speaker 1>to accomplish with Mexico UM. And the way that it

0:24:20.119 --> 0:24:24.240
<v Speaker 1>happens is that businesses get a discrete um medium of

0:24:24.680 --> 0:24:28.679
<v Speaker 1>communication with the administration. They'll start speaking with the working

0:24:28.760 --> 0:24:32.760
<v Speaker 1>level train negotiators on a monthly basis, on a bi

0:24:32.880 --> 0:24:36.080
<v Speaker 1>monthly basis, so every two months they'll bump it up

0:24:36.080 --> 0:24:39.040
<v Speaker 1>to the Deputy director at the U s TR and

0:24:39.160 --> 0:24:41.040
<v Speaker 1>see if they've worked out any of their issues, whether

0:24:41.119 --> 0:24:44.119
<v Speaker 1>it's I P s AFT or Force Technology transfer, or

0:24:44.240 --> 0:24:48.640
<v Speaker 1>maybe China is stalling on purchasing its agriculture bio bioengineered

0:24:48.960 --> 0:24:52.280
<v Speaker 1>seeds UM. And then on a six month basis USTR

0:24:52.359 --> 0:24:55.159
<v Speaker 1>Lifefise or Advice Premier Luca, I assume it will be

0:24:55.240 --> 0:24:59.560
<v Speaker 1>Luka will be meeting to go through all those complaints

0:24:59.720 --> 0:25:01.879
<v Speaker 1>from the US side to make sure that they have

0:25:02.000 --> 0:25:05.479
<v Speaker 1>been complying with this phase one, so called deal UM.

0:25:05.560 --> 0:25:09.240
<v Speaker 1>And so every six months, expectively beginning I'd say June July,

0:25:10.280 --> 0:25:13.240
<v Speaker 1>where we should roughly be around that time, the US

0:25:13.240 --> 0:25:15.159
<v Speaker 1>side decides whether we want to ratch it up tariffs

0:25:15.560 --> 0:25:19.280
<v Speaker 1>or we want to reduce taris further andrietta given the rolling,

0:25:19.560 --> 0:25:22.720
<v Speaker 1>Given the rolling nature of this deal, the fact that

0:25:22.800 --> 0:25:25.680
<v Speaker 1>it it's sort of I is going to be implemented

0:25:25.800 --> 0:25:29.440
<v Speaker 1>as we go. How much certainty does it really give businesses?

0:25:30.720 --> 0:25:32.480
<v Speaker 1>Not a whole lot. And you know, a lot of

0:25:32.600 --> 0:25:35.760
<v Speaker 1>the response that we've gotten over the weekend has been

0:25:35.800 --> 0:25:39.200
<v Speaker 1>mostly from trade association saying they feel pretty comfortable about

0:25:39.280 --> 0:25:42.159
<v Speaker 1>what is included in a phase one deal. But for businesses,

0:25:42.400 --> 0:25:44.720
<v Speaker 1>unless you were assuming that these tarists would be in

0:25:44.800 --> 0:25:48.280
<v Speaker 1>place and perpetuity, which a lot of the big global manufacturers,

0:25:48.359 --> 0:25:51.920
<v Speaker 1>sort of the big multinational supply chains that we all

0:25:52.240 --> 0:25:54.440
<v Speaker 1>you know know what, are familiar with, they are able

0:25:54.520 --> 0:25:57.239
<v Speaker 1>to digest the fact that all these tires are going

0:25:57.280 --> 0:25:59.359
<v Speaker 1>to be in place for the remainder of President Trump's

0:25:59.440 --> 0:26:02.679
<v Speaker 1>tenure UM. But the smaller modern pop shops they now

0:26:02.760 --> 0:26:06.600
<v Speaker 1>have to face the reality that on two D fifty

0:26:06.600 --> 0:26:08.560
<v Speaker 1>billion dollars worth of goods are going to be in

0:26:08.640 --> 0:26:10.840
<v Speaker 1>effect for at least the first half of next year,

0:26:10.920 --> 0:26:14.760
<v Speaker 1>probably well into one UM. And the only remedy we

0:26:14.840 --> 0:26:17.600
<v Speaker 1>got here is that D billion dollars worth the tariffs

0:26:17.680 --> 0:26:20.000
<v Speaker 1>drop from fifteen percent to seven and a half. So

0:26:20.119 --> 0:26:23.280
<v Speaker 1>if you're a smaller multinational and you're shipping your goods

0:26:23.320 --> 0:26:26.040
<v Speaker 1>from China, you're paying these tariffs for the foreseeable future,

0:26:26.080 --> 0:26:28.040
<v Speaker 1>and that's not particularly helpful to them. And we're so

0:26:28.119 --> 0:26:30.240
<v Speaker 1>let's talk about and just round out this conversation with

0:26:30.320 --> 0:26:32.720
<v Speaker 1>the risk that this falls apart before it's fully implemented

0:26:32.920 --> 0:26:35.640
<v Speaker 1>between the United States and China. Was listening to embassat

0:26:35.680 --> 0:26:38.840
<v Speaker 1>a light Higher Speak on CBS just yesterday on Face

0:26:38.920 --> 0:26:41.399
<v Speaker 1>the Nation with Market Brennan. I got the sense that

0:26:41.920 --> 0:26:44.560
<v Speaker 1>there's a risk here that the success on this depends

0:26:44.600 --> 0:26:46.560
<v Speaker 1>on who implements the deal in China. Will it be

0:26:46.600 --> 0:26:50.400
<v Speaker 1>the hardliners or the reformers. What's your sense of things, Henrietta.

0:26:50.480 --> 0:26:52.520
<v Speaker 1>And the risk that this falls apart before it really

0:26:53.080 --> 0:26:56.720
<v Speaker 1>gets implemented, Well, once again, we have a three to

0:26:56.800 --> 0:26:59.880
<v Speaker 1>five week waiting period, so we're going to be transcribing

0:27:00.040 --> 0:27:04.280
<v Speaker 1>these texts into legal jargon for the next month at least,

0:27:04.359 --> 0:27:07.680
<v Speaker 1>which means it won't be signed until February. Based on

0:27:07.760 --> 0:27:10.200
<v Speaker 1>what we saw from China and you know, the extraordinary

0:27:10.240 --> 0:27:13.080
<v Speaker 1>pop and circumstance that went around their announcement at eleven

0:27:13.119 --> 0:27:16.680
<v Speaker 1>o'clock PM their time, on Friday. I don't think that

0:27:16.760 --> 0:27:18.960
<v Speaker 1>we should expect China to blow up the deal and

0:27:19.080 --> 0:27:21.240
<v Speaker 1>just say, hey, we're not going to comply. But I

0:27:21.280 --> 0:27:23.960
<v Speaker 1>could definitely see this dragging on, if you'll recalled, last

0:27:24.000 --> 0:27:26.119
<v Speaker 1>time we got this close and didn't have legal text

0:27:26.600 --> 0:27:30.720
<v Speaker 1>was in March of twenty nineteen, and we ultimately didn't

0:27:30.800 --> 0:27:33.639
<v Speaker 1>get a Phase one deal until Friday, though that was

0:27:33.680 --> 0:27:36.879
<v Speaker 1>almost nine months later. I could definitely see a delay

0:27:37.040 --> 0:27:39.520
<v Speaker 1>further from here. Great Henry Atatrice, thank you so much.

0:27:39.640 --> 0:27:43.959
<v Speaker 1>Nice update there, and really the Nte grite of I mean,
