As the 30 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:43,840 Speaker 1: Brexit fueled turmoil continues in global markets, investors might want 31 00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:47,080 Speaker 1: to consider income oriented e t s. That's a word 32 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 1: from Todd Rosenwood, director of et F Research for SMP 33 00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:54,480 Speaker 1: Global Market Intelligence.

That's that's taken 38 00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:12,799 Speaker 1: place in Europe, that's taking place in Japan and other 39 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:16,480 Speaker 1: markets as a whole, so good growth potential with an 40 00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:19,760 Speaker 1: income component as well.

You're listening to Taking 48 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 1: Stock with pim Box at Jacolin Hays on Bloomberg Radio. 49 00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:59,400 Speaker 1: Brexit the impact on stocks, Uh, well, it's faded at 50 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 1: least for tow, but we don't know if it's really faded. 51 00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:05,880 Speaker 1: After two days of pounding after the vote, US equities 52 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:08,240 Speaker 1: are now up, as you just heard Catherine Cattery reporting 53 00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:10,560 Speaker 1: anywhere from one and a half to two percent across 54 00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:12,880 Speaker 1: the board on the major market indexes. But you know, 55 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:15,720 Speaker 1: if you've been watching the market lately or even for 56 00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 1: a long time, you know you can't let one day 57 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 1: of rebound. Fool you. Headlines, of course are a big 58 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:23,960 Speaker 1: vulnerability to the stock market and to the bond market. 59 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:27,240 Speaker 1: Now Peter Cheer joins this now head of macro strategy 60 00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 1: at Breen Capital right here in New York City, And 61 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:33,160 Speaker 1: of course just to explain that little bit more, Peter, 62 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 1: because you know, when I say headlines, I mean headline risk. 63 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 1: I mean everybody's watching Brexit. What's Agleamarkell going to say 64 00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 1: the Chancellor of Germany about her willingness to let the 65 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 1: EU negotiate a deal that's favorable. What's going to happen 66 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:49,400 Speaker 1: within the Labor Party? So many ifs? What is what 67 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 1: is the expectation right now? Do you think in global 68 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 1: markets that could be upended by an unexpected turn on 69 00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 1: the politics side? You know, I think for the last 70 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 1: twenty four hours, all of a sudden, I think people 71 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 1: are realizing a little bit that maybe Brexit isn't quite 72 00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 1: as an immediate thing as they thought. You know, it's 73 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:09,480 Speaker 1: kind of termed okay Brexit, and then there's almost a 74 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 1: sense that it's an immediate reaction, it's immediate filing. And 75 00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:14,800 Speaker 1: I think quickly we're finding out one this is going 76 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:17,760 Speaker 1: to be delayed. Right, there's Cameron's already stepped down, so 77 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 1: they're gonna have to find a new leader. There's a 78 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:21,599 Speaker 1: chance maybe there'll be a new election in England to 79 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 1: determine this. There's how does the ECB play out its 80 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:27,080 Speaker 1: role in this? It seems like the ECB today into 81 00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 1: that maybe promising more quie in the future if needed. 82 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:33,000 Speaker 1: And then as Mirke going to continue a hardline, is 83 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 1: you're going to be aggressive against England? Or is there 84 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 1: the small chance that they start using this as a 85 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,280 Speaker 1: way to back up because if you look countries, even 86 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:44,040 Speaker 1: Merkel has that our own trouble in Germany about the 87 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 1: immigration issue. This immigration issue is not just you know, 88 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:51,479 Speaker 1: a northern England issue. It's kind of hit all of Europe. 89 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 1: So this might be the chance to back up a 90 00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:58,000 Speaker 1: little bit and create a better union. All right, let's 91 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 1: say that we get through this, we get further, Maybe 92 00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 1: she backs up, the UK calls a general election. Uh, 93 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:08,480 Speaker 1: they get ready to elect their next prime minister. And 94 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 1: it seems that this really is heading towards the next step. 95 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:15,040 Speaker 1: Can't go back, you can only go down the road. 96 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 1: Uh what about the dominoes that this could cause to 97 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 1: start falling. What is the risk there? What is the 98 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:27,840 Speaker 1: pattern you see? And I think the pattern there would 99 00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:30,359 Speaker 1: be you know, Spain, they muddled through their election and 100 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:32,400 Speaker 1: they came out okay, it actually wasn't as bad as 101 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:34,520 Speaker 1: some feared. But I think you would see this kind 102 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:40,159 Speaker 1: of ongoing demand from countries people to hey, let's challenge 103 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 1: whether we want to be part of this. And again, 104 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:45,200 Speaker 1: I think England's actually the relatively easy part because they're 105 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:47,479 Speaker 1: not part of the common currency, so it's actually much 106 00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:50,360 Speaker 1: easier to separate. If you start talking to with Spain 107 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:53,719 Speaker 1: and Italy and they start threatening to pull out or 108 00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 1: they want out, that becomes much much more complicated, and 109 00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 1: I think that grinds things to a halt much faster 110 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:01,440 Speaker 1: even than anything that's going on the UK. So I 111 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:03,960 Speaker 1: think that's the real fear that you get this domino effect. 112 00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:07,600 Speaker 1: And I think within that, one thing we're all very 113 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:10,520 Speaker 1: concerned about is had the central banks kind of lost 114 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 1: their mojo? Do they really have the ability to support this. 115 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:15,000 Speaker 1: I think the FED lost a lot of credibility when 116 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,159 Speaker 1: they put June on the table and then didn't have 117 00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 1: the data to support that. So I think we're at 118 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 1: this real fragile state where if you start seeing these 119 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 1: dominoes in place that slow the global economy and this 120 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:29,080 Speaker 1: lack of faith in these central bankers, you could have 121 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:31,000 Speaker 1: a pretty severe sell off. And you know, we looked 122 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 1: potentially down to the S and P if we get 123 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:36,000 Speaker 1: that scenario. I think to get there first we have 124 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:38,080 Speaker 1: to see a that the dominoes are coming and be 125 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:40,120 Speaker 1: there's just too many shorts in the market. I think 126 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:42,040 Speaker 1: part of the reason today we're getting this big rally 127 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:45,039 Speaker 1: is there were so many people prepared for Brexit that 128 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:47,719 Speaker 1: it wasn't as damaging it could have been otherwise. And 129 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:49,920 Speaker 1: now you're kind of getting the short squeeze lied led 130 00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,200 Speaker 1: by the VIX, which is going down dramatically. All the 131 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 1: VIX vts I think are buying back stock effectively or 132 00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:58,760 Speaker 1: implicitly through their actions. So that's part of the reason 133 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:00,720 Speaker 1: we're getting this rally. It's not that it's over. We're 134 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 1: getting a bit of a short squeeze hedging, you say, 135 00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:08,159 Speaker 1: but there's a lot of hedging behind this stock market. 136 00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 1: And even though it had to down days uh, it 137 00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 1: could have been worse. That the declines really haven't taken 138 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 1: this that much lower than the market was before Brexit. 139 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 1: What is going on there? And again, I think we've 140 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:23,480 Speaker 1: had this period time really since the February rally started 141 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:25,640 Speaker 1: that no one's really liked this rally. And I think 142 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:28,840 Speaker 1: we got lucky as a marketplace that we were pretty 143 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:30,840 Speaker 1: close to the highs we are two thousand and seventy. 144 00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:33,720 Speaker 1: I think the Friday before the Brexit vote was occurring, 145 00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:35,880 Speaker 1: so you know, not last Friday, but the Friday before, 146 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 1: and I think that gave people out of confidence. Hey, 147 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:41,160 Speaker 1: you know what, I'm not going to bet on Brexit 148 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 1: winning or on Remain winning because what's the upside. So 149 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 1: I think we got very lucky that this has been 150 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,120 Speaker 1: a market that has not been well loved. I think 151 00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:53,200 Speaker 1: people are under invested. Cash balances remain very high. You've 152 00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:56,120 Speaker 1: seen all this options activity, but call ratios were very high, 153 00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:58,520 Speaker 1: and you've seen all these inflows into these zix et 154 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 1: s and e t N. So I think people were 155 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:04,360 Speaker 1: very very well prepared for this Brexit vote, which is 156 00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 1: why originally we only went from twenty thousand and down 157 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:09,880 Speaker 1: to twenty thousand and fifty and even you know, two 158 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:12,680 Speaker 1: thousand and ten, So it hasn't been that dramatic sort 159 00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:15,520 Speaker 1: of pull out because everyone wasn't positioned off sides. And 160 00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 1: for myself, when I look at the Macel world, I'm 161 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:19,760 Speaker 1: always looking at how people are positioned. I think the 162 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 1: fact that people are positioned so lightly on risk was 163 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,560 Speaker 1: a relatively saving grace. And is letting us get this 164 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:29,720 Speaker 1: rally today? Your single largest fear, everybody listened to Peter cheers, 165 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:33,840 Speaker 1: single largest fear. I think that it's Junker in them. 166 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:38,520 Speaker 1: Continue to talk, really show a EU that is completely 167 00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:41,520 Speaker 1: out of touch with reality, that the you know, politically light, 168 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 1: continue to elite, pretend to be or continue to act elite, 169 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 1: and I think that will drive this faster than they realize. 170 00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:51,680 Speaker 1: And you will very quickly see people pushing against Brussels, 171 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:54,719 Speaker 1: wanting out. And I don't think the economic system is 172 00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:57,679 Speaker 1: sustainable right now, and if all these hedges get squeezed out, 173 00:08:57,960 --> 00:08:59,520 Speaker 1: that will be the worst. So I will be looking 174 00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:02,720 Speaker 1: tonight to see our hedges going down. Do you see 175 00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:04,960 Speaker 1: shares outstanding and some of these vix ets come down. 176 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:07,720 Speaker 1: If you see that coupled with an adamant you know, EU, 177 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:10,040 Speaker 1: or a EU that's out of touch, then yeah, I 178 00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:12,760 Speaker 1: think we have trouble. John Claude Jinger is the President 179 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 1: of the European Commission. That's why his words are so important. 180 00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:18,560 Speaker 1: What about a possible wave of credit losses in the 181 00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:22,400 Speaker 1: investment grade market? And you know, to me, if we 182 00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:26,120 Speaker 1: start this next wave of selling off, I am very 183 00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 1: concerned that it starts hitting the investment grade space, not 184 00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 1: necessarily because there will be default, but because there will 185 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:33,400 Speaker 1: be marked market losses. And how I look at the world, 186 00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 1: I look at a little bit through I call it 187 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:38,400 Speaker 1: Maslow's hierarchy of credit bubbles. And we've kind of already 188 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:40,160 Speaker 1: seen high yield sell offs and we've had a couple 189 00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:42,560 Speaker 1: in the past year. And what happens in hiw yield 190 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:45,440 Speaker 1: sell offs we get volatilely in the equity market, but 191 00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:47,560 Speaker 1: it's usually contained. And the reason for that is I 192 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:49,480 Speaker 1: think most people invest in high yield with their eyes 193 00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:51,719 Speaker 1: wide open, as they understand, hey, you know what, I 194 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:53,600 Speaker 1: might lose five percent, but I'm trying to make eight 195 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:56,839 Speaker 1: or nine percent, so I'll deal with that volatility. It's 196 00:09:56,880 --> 00:09:58,560 Speaker 1: the investment grade where people are only trying to make 197 00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:00,240 Speaker 1: three or four percent, where all of a sudd maybe 198 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:02,880 Speaker 1: see this big spread widening and people lose two or 199 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:05,560 Speaker 1: three percent, that all of a sudden, they question whether 200 00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 1: they want to be in there, they sell. I think, 201 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:09,360 Speaker 1: you know, just before us, they were talking about, you know, 202 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:11,840 Speaker 1: dividend stocks, same sort of thing. There's been this huge 203 00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:16,359 Speaker 1: flight into so called safe stocks, all this yield hungry investments, 204 00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:19,080 Speaker 1: and I think they're very crowd of trade, and if 205 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:21,559 Speaker 1: it starts selling off, I'm not sure who the buyer 206 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:25,360 Speaker 1: of this is. So that's why this chips into investment grade, 207 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:27,439 Speaker 1: which is a much bigger problem for the equity market. 208 00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 1: Fifteen seconds. Your second biggest fear is that the stock 209 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:33,760 Speaker 1: buyout blackout period starts, companies won't buy back stocks, and 210 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:36,200 Speaker 1: that's a big issue potentially. Yeah, and I think that's 211 00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:38,480 Speaker 1: part of what happened in January February. Is one of 212 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 1: the big drivers of this market has been some companies 213 00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:43,439 Speaker 1: buying back their own stocks, are selling puts against their stocks, 214 00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 1: and as they come into earning period, they get blacked out, 215 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:49,800 Speaker 1: so they cannot do that during earning period. So again, 216 00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:53,360 Speaker 1: very susceptible to a January February type time frame exactly 217 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:57,240 Speaker 1: as they start July, well, the j months, there's some 218 00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:01,080 Speaker 1: some potential pitfalls there.
