1
00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:11,600
Speaker 1: Bloomberg Audio Studios, podcasts, radio news.

2
00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:18,640
Speaker 2: Single best idea and our single best idea is when

3
00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:22,160
Speaker 2: there is tragedy, we go to the science of aviation

4
00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:26,000
Speaker 2: with Bloomberg Intelligence. This has obviously been a commitment by

5
00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:30,440
Speaker 2: Bloomberg for well over thirty years. It was definitive in

6
00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:34,640
Speaker 2: Dallas with George Ferguson and Mary Schlangenstein, and we just

7
00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:37,879
Speaker 2: build out an ability to look at Boeing and then

8
00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:40,879
Speaker 2: out of London and down to Paris to look at

9
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:45,040
Speaker 2: Toulouse and Airbus. We're committed to the coverage of aviation

10
00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:48,400
Speaker 2: and today was a very difficult day. We thank Danny

11
00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:53,840
Speaker 2: Lee and Bangkok who was absolutely spectacular on Asia in

12
00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:57,600
Speaker 2: the reach from the Pacific rim over to Mumbai and

13
00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:03,000
Speaker 2: Amenabad to speak after this terrible plane crash. In particular

14
00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:07,640
Speaker 2: George Ferguson yeoman's duty, not in Dallas, George Ferguson definitive

15
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:10,840
Speaker 2: in the industry and Oslo at a conference. We thank

16
00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:14,360
Speaker 2: him for giving us some real wisdom on the seven

17
00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:18,960
Speaker 2: eighty seven, the seven seventy seven and our safety to fly.

18
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:24,120
Speaker 2: Francis Donald stopped by with RBC Capital Markets wonderful to

19
00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:29,200
Speaker 2: calculation of GDP Francis Donald on these uncertain.

20
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:31,360
Speaker 1: Times, Well, there's all sorts of measures of uncertainty, and

21
00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:34,600
Speaker 1: no surprising, whatever measure you're using is at an all

22
00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:37,560
Speaker 1: time high. And what that means for forecasters but also

23
00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:40,760
Speaker 1: for businesses. My clients, the CEOs that I talk do

24
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:43,039
Speaker 1: you hear from them? What I hear is we have

25
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:46,960
Speaker 1: to risk manage around downside and upside. We can't have

26
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:49,800
Speaker 1: one scenario that we base our business operations on. We

27
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:52,480
Speaker 1: have to plan and prepare for a wide range. But

28
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:56,520
Speaker 1: this uncertainty, it is not actual policy that is problematic here,

29
00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:59,160
Speaker 1: although yes, there are some elements of it that are problematic.

30
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:02,040
Speaker 1: It's what is the game that we're playing. We cannot

31
00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:05,040
Speaker 1: write the playbook until we know what the game is itself,

32
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:08,640
Speaker 1: And so forecasters and businesses are actually operating with much

33
00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:11,120
Speaker 1: ward wider set of scenarios available.

34
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:15,880
Speaker 2: Francis Donald of RBC Capital Markets, the vice chairman and

35
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:19,480
Speaker 2: the former vice chairman, Richard Clarita of Columbia University, and

36
00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:22,400
Speaker 2: of course all of his work at PIMCO was with

37
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:25,320
Speaker 2: us today. This before the June eighteenth FED meeting. I

38
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:27,840
Speaker 2: asked him a question I'm certain I've never asked him

39
00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:31,240
Speaker 2: before Richard Clarina on gold.

40
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 3: I'm following this pretty closely because the purchases in the

41
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 3: official data, the purchases of gold are large, and they've

42
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:42,560
Speaker 3: been picking up. I'll share an anecdote with you. I

43
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:46,160
Speaker 3: was in Asia ten years ago seeing a very sophisticated

44
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:51,160
Speaker 3: official investor, official institution investor, and we were talking about

45
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 3: gold even then. This is like twenty fourteen, twenty fifteen,

46
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:57,880
Speaker 3: and that was in the context of Kiwi Infinity, and

47
00:02:57,919 --> 00:02:59,639
Speaker 3: I said to him, well, why invest in gold. You

48
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:02,799
Speaker 3: can buy inflation index security. It gives you a hash

49
00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:05,520
Speaker 3: against inflation. And he looked at me and he said,

50
00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:10,799
Speaker 3: gold doesn't default. And so I don't think the US

51
00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:14,720
Speaker 3: is going to default either, but certainly we have seen

52
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:17,280
Speaker 3: that allocation. And again talk about back to the future.

53
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:19,480
Speaker 3: I mean central backs have been holding gold as a

54
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:23,600
Speaker 3: reserve for hundreds of years, and so we're sort of

55
00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:25,240
Speaker 3: getting back into that mindset.

56
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:28,680
Speaker 2: Richard Claire to there on gold. I really never thought

57
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,600
Speaker 2: I would speak with one of our great academics on

58
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 2: monetary theory about gold. But there is the surprises of

59
00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:40,000
Speaker 2: surveillance and your commute across the nation, across Canada, serious

60
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:44,040
