0:00:27.600 --> 0:00:31.080
<v Speaker 1>Discipline to maintain discipline the message from David Kelly at

0:00:31.120 --> 0:00:34.640
<v Speaker 1>JP Morgan Asset Management, the chief global strategist he joined us. Now, David,

0:00:34.640 --> 0:00:37.160
<v Speaker 1>build on that. What do you mean by that? Well,

0:00:37.400 --> 0:00:41.280
<v Speaker 1>I think that we were in a recovery, but this

0:00:41.320 --> 0:00:43.560
<v Speaker 1>recovery is about it slow down. I mean the sound

0:00:43.600 --> 0:00:46.680
<v Speaker 1>that you hear outside is screeching breaks because this V

0:00:46.760 --> 0:00:49.000
<v Speaker 1>shaped recovery is going to slow a lot in the

0:00:49.080 --> 0:00:52.519
<v Speaker 1>fourth quarter and and um early next year. I think

0:00:52.520 --> 0:00:55.400
<v Speaker 1>it's important not to just, you know, to pile into

0:00:55.840 --> 0:00:58.040
<v Speaker 1>momentum stocks. We've seen, we've seen, you know, the stock

0:00:58.040 --> 0:00:59.960
<v Speaker 1>marker do wonderfully well this year, but there are parts

0:01:00.000 --> 0:01:02.160
<v Speaker 1>of the the stock markets which are frankly done too well,

0:01:02.360 --> 0:01:04.360
<v Speaker 1>giving the amount of uncertainty out there, and given the

0:01:04.400 --> 0:01:06.679
<v Speaker 1>fact that down the road we are looking at higher

0:01:06.680 --> 0:01:08.800
<v Speaker 1>taxes and higher interest rates. So I think it's very

0:01:08.840 --> 0:01:11.800
<v Speaker 1>important for investors in this stage to be disciplined realized

0:01:12.040 --> 0:01:14.479
<v Speaker 1>that just because we've seen some good economic numbers, because

0:01:14.480 --> 0:01:18.119
<v Speaker 1>the marketers seem to be okay here, you know, don't

0:01:18.160 --> 0:01:20.000
<v Speaker 1>don't take your eye off the bull. Recognize that we've

0:01:20.000 --> 0:01:22.280
<v Speaker 1>still got a long way to go before this pandemic

0:01:22.360 --> 0:01:25.080
<v Speaker 1>is really over. Within it is the idea of what

0:01:25.200 --> 0:01:28.919
<v Speaker 1>the return will be. All the actual assumptions David Kelly

0:01:28.920 --> 0:01:31.480
<v Speaker 1>has been we're supposed to invest for single digit return.

0:01:32.120 --> 0:01:35.000
<v Speaker 1>Nobody believes that that's on these high flyers. Do we

0:01:35.040 --> 0:01:39.120
<v Speaker 1>go back to a single digit world? We have to eventually,

0:01:39.160 --> 0:01:42.440
<v Speaker 1>because in the end, it's about nominal GDP growth and

0:01:42.480 --> 0:01:45.679
<v Speaker 1>what's happened for a long time, actually for decades now,

0:01:45.720 --> 0:01:48.800
<v Speaker 1>as we've seen the value of financial assets um in

0:01:48.840 --> 0:01:53.040
<v Speaker 1>the US rise much faster than overall nominal GDP. But

0:01:53.160 --> 0:01:55.600
<v Speaker 1>ultimately it's about the growth and goods and services produced

0:01:55.600 --> 0:01:59.280
<v Speaker 1>by the U S economy. And so there is gonna

0:01:59.280 --> 0:02:01.640
<v Speaker 1>be some correctional long the way here and there are

0:02:01.760 --> 0:02:03.720
<v Speaker 1>and we are going to see a return to single

0:02:03.760 --> 0:02:06.960
<v Speaker 1>digit returns. And so it's very important for people, you know,

0:02:07.080 --> 0:02:09.320
<v Speaker 1>look at valuations carefully because the things that are most

0:02:09.360 --> 0:02:11.480
<v Speaker 1>overvalued are the things that are going to get hurt

0:02:11.520 --> 0:02:15.240
<v Speaker 1>the worst when there is a more significant correction. Well, David,

0:02:15.320 --> 0:02:17.760
<v Speaker 1>when you talk about how we could see a correction

0:02:17.919 --> 0:02:20.440
<v Speaker 1>in what in tech stocks? Because right now we're seeing

0:02:20.480 --> 0:02:23.520
<v Speaker 1>an ongoing performance at least for today. A return to

0:02:23.560 --> 0:02:27.440
<v Speaker 1>the underperformance in small caps in financials and tech is

0:02:27.480 --> 0:02:31.239
<v Speaker 1>what's recovering. Well, yeah, and and and because this market

0:02:31.320 --> 0:02:33.480
<v Speaker 1>is very momentum driven. I mean, I think this year

0:02:33.520 --> 0:02:37.640
<v Speaker 1>has been so difficult for fundamental analytics. I mean, how

0:02:37.639 --> 0:02:40.240
<v Speaker 1>do you figure out, you know, what these companies are

0:02:40.240 --> 0:02:42.359
<v Speaker 1>really worth and the sort of world we're looking at

0:02:42.400 --> 0:02:45.399
<v Speaker 1>post pandemic. So I think investors are just jumping into

0:02:45.400 --> 0:02:48.640
<v Speaker 1>the momentum trade here. But when we get through this,

0:02:48.680 --> 0:02:51.120
<v Speaker 1>when we have a more normal economy, as that begins

0:02:51.160 --> 0:02:54.280
<v Speaker 1>to shape, you know, shape as we have a sense

0:02:54.320 --> 0:02:57.639
<v Speaker 1>of it. In two, I do think that value stocks

0:02:57.639 --> 0:02:59.960
<v Speaker 1>should do better than growth. Growth is very expensive RealD

0:03:00.000 --> 0:03:02.160
<v Speaker 1>of the value. You know, it's most expensive its means

0:03:02.200 --> 0:03:04.639
<v Speaker 1>since the tech bubble. I also think that international ought

0:03:04.639 --> 0:03:06.560
<v Speaker 1>to do better than the US a very similar story.

0:03:06.560 --> 0:03:09.320
<v Speaker 1>Both em and developed country international are cheaper out in

0:03:09.360 --> 0:03:11.600
<v Speaker 1>the US, So I think you need to think about

0:03:11.600 --> 0:03:14.280
<v Speaker 1>the boring middle of the market here and try not

0:03:14.320 --> 0:03:18.000
<v Speaker 1>to be too enticed or enamored of of high tech

0:03:18.600 --> 0:03:22.720
<v Speaker 1>um large cap megacap growth stalks. David, fold your economics

0:03:22.760 --> 0:03:26.200
<v Speaker 1>in your Castman and Farola. Your economists make very clear

0:03:26.240 --> 0:03:29.440
<v Speaker 1>they have a very cautious view out. Is that conscious

0:03:29.480 --> 0:03:32.120
<v Speaker 1>view folded in the fourth quarter or is that a

0:03:32.200 --> 0:03:35.640
<v Speaker 1>conscious view for next year? It should be in the

0:03:35.680 --> 0:03:38.320
<v Speaker 1>fourth quarter. If we're looking at quarterly GDP, we saw

0:03:38.360 --> 0:03:42.000
<v Speaker 1>a GDP full by two percent in the second quarter.

0:03:42.200 --> 0:03:44.360
<v Speaker 1>We think would rise by as much as thirty percent

0:03:44.800 --> 0:03:47.640
<v Speaker 1>in the third annualize. But then when you rise by

0:03:47.640 --> 0:03:51.080
<v Speaker 1>about three percent annualized in the fourth, so there's a

0:03:51.200 --> 0:03:54.000
<v Speaker 1>very sharp deceleration growth. And you're gonna see that in jobs.

0:03:54.000 --> 0:03:56.200
<v Speaker 1>I mean if you look sequentially, Okay, we saw we

0:03:56.240 --> 0:03:59.640
<v Speaker 1>added one point four million jobs last month. That's good,

0:04:00.440 --> 0:04:03.320
<v Speaker 1>but we think that job growth will now decelerate about

0:04:03.480 --> 0:04:06.280
<v Speaker 1>less than a million per month, which sounds okay, except

0:04:06.320 --> 0:04:09.840
<v Speaker 1>we're still eleven million jobs shorter where we were in February,

0:04:09.960 --> 0:04:12.200
<v Speaker 1>So again a deceleration there. So I think in the

0:04:12.240 --> 0:04:15.200
<v Speaker 1>monthly numbers it's upon us. In the quartine numbers, we're

0:04:15.200 --> 0:04:16.640
<v Speaker 1>gonna have to wait for the fourth quarter to see

0:04:16.680 --> 0:04:19.720
<v Speaker 1>that deceleration. What's the run rate of nominal GDP that

0:04:19.880 --> 0:04:24.960
<v Speaker 1>you then fold into your forecasting of the equity markets. Um, well,

0:04:25.360 --> 0:04:27.039
<v Speaker 1>it's it's hard to talk about a run rate in

0:04:27.080 --> 0:04:30.680
<v Speaker 1>either twenty one when you get but once you get

0:04:30.680 --> 0:04:34.760
<v Speaker 1>into two, we're looking at something in the order of

0:04:34.839 --> 0:04:37.239
<v Speaker 1>four to five percent once we get back to close

0:04:37.279 --> 0:04:39.160
<v Speaker 1>to full employment. But yeah, you're gonna be you know,

0:04:39.240 --> 0:04:42.039
<v Speaker 1>we'll have to bring that unemployment rate rate down for

0:04:42.040 --> 0:04:44.600
<v Speaker 1>for a while here. But you know, we've got another problem,

0:04:44.600 --> 0:04:47.240
<v Speaker 1>which is that we've got a demographic crash going on

0:04:47.360 --> 0:04:49.320
<v Speaker 1>right now, which is also going to take something out

0:04:49.320 --> 0:04:53.240
<v Speaker 1>of GDP growth for this pandemic is Oh, it's what

0:04:53.320 --> 0:04:55.120
<v Speaker 1>you make if. What's happening in Washington at the moment,

0:04:56.560 --> 0:04:58.920
<v Speaker 1>it's all politics. I mean, I think that they I

0:04:59.600 --> 0:05:02.880
<v Speaker 1>was hoping we'd see some sort of new support package,

0:05:03.560 --> 0:05:06.400
<v Speaker 1>a Phase four deal before the conventions, because honestly, there

0:05:06.400 --> 0:05:08.159
<v Speaker 1>are a lot of unemployed people in this country who

0:05:08.200 --> 0:05:10.000
<v Speaker 1>need that. A lot of people are going to suffer

0:05:10.000 --> 0:05:12.320
<v Speaker 1>through this winter. But nobody wants to make a deal

0:05:12.520 --> 0:05:14.599
<v Speaker 1>at this stage, it seems to me before the election.

0:05:14.760 --> 0:05:17.640
<v Speaker 1>So hopefully after the election, however, it goes in that

0:05:17.720 --> 0:05:20.920
<v Speaker 1>lame duct session of Congress, we'll have something to support

0:05:20.920 --> 0:05:23.719
<v Speaker 1>people who just can't get back to work until a

0:05:23.720 --> 0:05:26.360
<v Speaker 1>pandemic is tamed, and hopefully we'll tame the pandemic in

0:05:26.440 --> 0:05:29.920
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty one. But right now it's just partisan posturing

0:05:30.120 --> 0:05:33.039
<v Speaker 1>because everybody is focused on the election. David, is no

0:05:33.160 --> 0:05:36.480
<v Speaker 1>deal or a very skinny deal priced into the market currently.

0:05:37.600 --> 0:05:39.680
<v Speaker 1>I think it probably is. And remember we're talking about

0:05:39.680 --> 0:05:41.520
<v Speaker 1>eight weeks. I mean we're talking about that there are

0:05:41.880 --> 0:05:44.960
<v Speaker 1>perhaps ten weeks. But once the election is over, I

0:05:44.960 --> 0:05:47.919
<v Speaker 1>think there is a majority probably in Congress for some

0:05:47.960 --> 0:05:50.360
<v Speaker 1>sort of skinny deal because after all, and things like

0:05:50.560 --> 0:05:53.160
<v Speaker 1>state and local government, you can come back in January

0:05:53.240 --> 0:05:54.800
<v Speaker 1>with a new Congress and if you know, if, if,

0:05:55.480 --> 0:05:57.640
<v Speaker 1>depending on how that that shapes, that you could you

0:05:57.640 --> 0:06:00.320
<v Speaker 1>could do something then So you just need to do

0:06:00.400 --> 0:06:02.480
<v Speaker 1>something about the unemployment support. You need to do something

0:06:02.480 --> 0:06:05.479
<v Speaker 1>to try and help these small businesses. But it's you

0:06:05.520 --> 0:06:07.720
<v Speaker 1>don't need to spend a fortune right now, because you

0:06:07.760 --> 0:06:09.960
<v Speaker 1>can always come back next January and do something bigger.

0:06:10.920 --> 0:06:13.039
<v Speaker 1>It's even just a comment on the language that we're

0:06:13.080 --> 0:06:15.640
<v Speaker 1>using at the moment. A skinny deal is now something

0:06:15.680 --> 0:06:19.440
<v Speaker 1>between five hundred and seven hundred billion dollars down in Washington.

0:06:19.880 --> 0:06:23.200
<v Speaker 1>What are your thoughts on that there are no fiscal

0:06:23.200 --> 0:06:25.599
<v Speaker 1>hawks left. There's no monetary hawks left either, and the

0:06:25.600 --> 0:06:28.400
<v Speaker 1>hawks have all left Washington, which is a little worrying.

0:06:28.880 --> 0:06:30.760
<v Speaker 1>We do need to do this right now, but I

0:06:30.800 --> 0:06:34.000
<v Speaker 1>am very concerned that as the economy cover is particularly

0:06:34.120 --> 0:06:37.360
<v Speaker 1>get a good vaccine and it begins to move forward fast.

0:06:37.760 --> 0:06:40.159
<v Speaker 1>Later next year, We've got a lot of government debt,

0:06:40.200 --> 0:06:41.599
<v Speaker 1>and this is going to be a time when we

0:06:41.680 --> 0:06:45.680
<v Speaker 1>need to be really disciplined in terms of policy, just

0:06:45.760 --> 0:06:48.839
<v Speaker 1>to maintain the credibility of you know, of our you

0:06:48.839 --> 0:06:51.800
<v Speaker 1>know of treasury bonds and credibility of the currency. So

0:06:52.200 --> 0:06:54.800
<v Speaker 1>we're going to need to have some discipline down the road.

0:06:55.080 --> 0:06:57.240
<v Speaker 1>But you know, I have no problem with spending money

0:06:57.320 --> 0:06:58.600
<v Speaker 1>right now because there are a lot of people who

0:06:58.640 --> 0:07:01.320
<v Speaker 1>are really in some stress and you're not going to

0:07:01.400 --> 0:07:04.920
<v Speaker 1>create inflation in the middle of a of an economy

0:07:04.960 --> 0:07:08.960
<v Speaker 1>with the almost ten percent unemployment. David Ran to catch

0:07:09.040 --> 0:07:11.280
<v Speaker 1>up as always, stay well, send out records to the team.

0:07:11.320 --> 0:07:18.400
<v Speaker 1>David Kelly there of JP Morgan Asset Management. Let's stagger

0:07:18.480 --> 0:07:22.000
<v Speaker 1>to our guests as we can Omar regular shrub chief Investment.

0:07:25.600 --> 0:07:27.760
<v Speaker 1>You know, I can't, I can't come out after Quinneth

0:07:27.800 --> 0:07:31.360
<v Speaker 1>Peltrow Good Morning on Bloomberg Radio and Bloomberg Television. Thrilled

0:07:31.360 --> 0:07:34.280
<v Speaker 1>you with us under simulcast and Mr Aguilar will give

0:07:34.360 --> 0:07:38.240
<v Speaker 1>us some brilliance right now. What is the character of

0:07:38.280 --> 0:07:41.520
<v Speaker 1>this pullback? You have the advantage of Kathy and Lisianne

0:07:41.560 --> 0:07:44.560
<v Speaker 1>to give you perspective as well. What is the nature

0:07:44.800 --> 0:07:49.280
<v Speaker 1>of the pullback we've seen? Omar Well, good morning Town.

0:07:49.320 --> 0:07:52.480
<v Speaker 1>Definitely is that out of my range of understanding A

0:07:52.480 --> 0:07:55.960
<v Speaker 1>lot of the discussion of reline and celebrities. But I

0:07:56.040 --> 0:07:59.680
<v Speaker 1>can tell you though that um big part of what

0:07:59.720 --> 0:08:02.080
<v Speaker 1>the more it is going through now is something that

0:08:02.200 --> 0:08:05.040
<v Speaker 1>in a way, it shouldn't be coming as a surprise.

0:08:05.160 --> 0:08:08.080
<v Speaker 1>As we come out of this summer and such an

0:08:08.080 --> 0:08:13.040
<v Speaker 1>amazing run in the market, we clearly speculated what would

0:08:13.080 --> 0:08:16.040
<v Speaker 1>could be the fault look like. And if you actually

0:08:16.080 --> 0:08:18.560
<v Speaker 1>see all the sources of uncertainty we had and the

0:08:18.600 --> 0:08:23.000
<v Speaker 1>gap between the market and the economy getting bigger and bigger,

0:08:24.160 --> 0:08:28.120
<v Speaker 1>that all of a sudden created that the environment for

0:08:28.200 --> 0:08:31.240
<v Speaker 1>a you know, a potential volatility and what we're observing

0:08:31.320 --> 0:08:33.000
<v Speaker 1>right here you put it into the context of the

0:08:33.040 --> 0:08:35.720
<v Speaker 1>size of the rally that we have seen since April,

0:08:36.080 --> 0:08:39.400
<v Speaker 1>we're just seeing volatility. The size of the correction, even

0:08:39.400 --> 0:08:43.680
<v Speaker 1>though in the NASDAK has significant, is still, you know,

0:08:43.840 --> 0:08:47.040
<v Speaker 1>very small relative to the size of the bold market

0:08:47.120 --> 0:08:50.240
<v Speaker 1>we saw earlier in the year. Our really serious question,

0:08:50.280 --> 0:08:52.439
<v Speaker 1>and I don't want you to speak for the executives

0:08:52.440 --> 0:08:54.760
<v Speaker 1>A Swab and Mr Schwab as well, you can do

0:08:54.800 --> 0:08:59.880
<v Speaker 1>that firm self. Swab and others in retail electronic brokerage

0:09:00.240 --> 0:09:05.079
<v Speaker 1>have been pinatas about the sizeable retail trading we're seeing.

0:09:05.480 --> 0:09:09.160
<v Speaker 1>Do you buy that idea that there's something ill about

0:09:09.200 --> 0:09:14.160
<v Speaker 1>all that retail trading? Well, you know, the the our

0:09:14.520 --> 0:09:17.960
<v Speaker 1>job a CHUAB is always to guide retail investors to

0:09:18.080 --> 0:09:21.120
<v Speaker 1>find their best way to trade and in many cases

0:09:21.160 --> 0:09:24.120
<v Speaker 1>to find, you know, the opportunities they find in the

0:09:24.160 --> 0:09:26.160
<v Speaker 1>market so that they can use their capital in the

0:09:26.280 --> 0:09:29.599
<v Speaker 1>wise way. Of course, there's a lot of players in

0:09:29.640 --> 0:09:32.200
<v Speaker 1>the market, there's a lot of activity in the market,

0:09:32.280 --> 0:09:34.760
<v Speaker 1>and the size of the retail trading, especially the high

0:09:34.880 --> 0:09:38.920
<v Speaker 1>frequency retail trading, has had an impact in the market,

0:09:38.920 --> 0:09:41.120
<v Speaker 1>no question about it. Now. I think a big part

0:09:41.160 --> 0:09:43.640
<v Speaker 1>of the discussion of what we do at investment management

0:09:43.640 --> 0:09:46.719
<v Speaker 1>part of CHUAB, it also involves, you know, trying to

0:09:46.760 --> 0:09:50.360
<v Speaker 1>guide them in through the behavioral aspects of the market.

0:09:50.400 --> 0:09:52.720
<v Speaker 1>If you actually see a lot of the retail activity

0:09:53.200 --> 0:09:56.199
<v Speaker 1>usually tends to be very short term in age nature,

0:09:56.440 --> 0:09:59.480
<v Speaker 1>and in many cases tends to be fairly related to

0:09:59.520 --> 0:10:02.680
<v Speaker 1>behavior of economics. Um So we do a lot of

0:10:02.720 --> 0:10:04.719
<v Speaker 1>research and we provide a lot of advice to our

0:10:04.760 --> 0:10:07.800
<v Speaker 1>retail clients to try to guide them to understand what

0:10:08.000 --> 0:10:11.840
<v Speaker 1>is really the motivation be find a lot of the trading.

0:10:11.920 --> 0:10:14.000
<v Speaker 1>Is it really more for a short term trade? Is

0:10:14.000 --> 0:10:17.960
<v Speaker 1>it really more consistent with their investment objectives? Well, I am.

0:10:18.120 --> 0:10:20.640
<v Speaker 1>You mentioned two things. They're one on side the volume

0:10:20.679 --> 0:10:23.480
<v Speaker 1>clearly increased over the last six months on the retail side.

0:10:23.720 --> 0:10:25.920
<v Speaker 1>The other on the character of the trading. Can you

0:10:25.960 --> 0:10:27.880
<v Speaker 1>talk a little bit more about that, Whether you've seen

0:10:27.920 --> 0:10:30.760
<v Speaker 1>a shift to more short term than perhaps it was

0:10:30.760 --> 0:10:32.960
<v Speaker 1>twelve months ago, Whether you've seen a shift from just

0:10:33.200 --> 0:10:35.720
<v Speaker 1>the underlying stock to more options activity, which is a

0:10:35.720 --> 0:10:37.920
<v Speaker 1>big discussion in the last week or so. Can you

0:10:37.920 --> 0:10:40.960
<v Speaker 1>give us some color some clarity there. I'm a well,

0:10:41.080 --> 0:10:43.760
<v Speaker 1>you know, the the I think the market environment has

0:10:43.760 --> 0:10:47.880
<v Speaker 1>actually put you know, clients and in generally investors in

0:10:48.000 --> 0:10:50.840
<v Speaker 1>like two camps, and you can actually barely clearly see

0:10:50.920 --> 0:10:54.000
<v Speaker 1>through the activity that we see in the market. On

0:10:54.000 --> 0:10:56.320
<v Speaker 1>one hand, we have what is called in behavioral finance,

0:10:56.360 --> 0:10:59.920
<v Speaker 1>the overconfident crowd, the over confident crowd, that is a

0:11:00.000 --> 0:11:04.600
<v Speaker 1>cognitive bias that basically feels that clearly, short term trading

0:11:04.720 --> 0:11:08.160
<v Speaker 1>it is the place to go, mostly because central banks

0:11:08.200 --> 0:11:10.880
<v Speaker 1>provide that extra liquidity and backstop for the market to

0:11:10.920 --> 0:11:14.200
<v Speaker 1>continue to follow that trade. You can actually see that

0:11:14.320 --> 0:11:17.000
<v Speaker 1>more in options, you can see that more in just

0:11:17.160 --> 0:11:19.080
<v Speaker 1>the momentum trade. You can actually see it. You can

0:11:19.120 --> 0:11:22.760
<v Speaker 1>obviously think about all the different participants that are trading

0:11:22.880 --> 0:11:25.760
<v Speaker 1>on on and off regarding those short term you know

0:11:26.040 --> 0:11:28.760
<v Speaker 1>components on the other hand, and we see that more

0:11:28.800 --> 0:11:31.880
<v Speaker 1>and more often, we actually see more of the other

0:11:31.920 --> 0:11:34.080
<v Speaker 1>side of the trade, which is some of those you

0:11:34.120 --> 0:11:37.400
<v Speaker 1>know investors that tend to be more risk averse were

0:11:37.480 --> 0:11:39.960
<v Speaker 1>loss a version, which is more of an emotional bias

0:11:40.000 --> 0:11:43.160
<v Speaker 1>in behavioral economics, that tend to actually drive more and

0:11:43.320 --> 0:11:45.920
<v Speaker 1>trying to be more safe and try to put more

0:11:46.080 --> 0:11:49.160
<v Speaker 1>cash on the sidelines and looking for protections. So when

0:11:49.200 --> 0:11:52.160
<v Speaker 1>you think about options, it's it's both ways. It basically

0:11:52.200 --> 0:11:54.320
<v Speaker 1>allows for you to put money to work in the

0:11:54.360 --> 0:11:56.800
<v Speaker 1>market to try to put you know, your views, but

0:11:56.880 --> 0:11:59.520
<v Speaker 1>also to try to seek protection. So we actually see,

0:11:59.679 --> 0:12:02.840
<v Speaker 1>you know, basically a bifurcation in terms of the the

0:12:02.880 --> 0:12:06.160
<v Speaker 1>way that activity goes. One is more short term in nature,

0:12:06.200 --> 0:12:08.480
<v Speaker 1>the other one tends to be more long term in nature.

0:12:08.720 --> 0:12:11.080
<v Speaker 1>So does this all balance itself out and keep the

0:12:11.320 --> 0:12:15.280
<v Speaker 1>rotation into cyclicles intact despite the textile off or we're

0:12:15.280 --> 0:12:18.040
<v Speaker 1>gonna be basically be set back and it's not going

0:12:18.080 --> 0:12:20.280
<v Speaker 1>to regain the helm and everything else going to kind

0:12:20.280 --> 0:12:23.679
<v Speaker 1>of limp along for a while. Well, you know, I've

0:12:23.840 --> 0:12:26.960
<v Speaker 1>I've always you know, described this induced the theory of

0:12:27.040 --> 0:12:30.800
<v Speaker 1>economics that basically say, when you look at history of recessions,

0:12:31.400 --> 0:12:35.319
<v Speaker 1>normally the market takes off before the recession is finally completed.

0:12:36.160 --> 0:12:38.280
<v Speaker 1>But in one thing that has been common in all

0:12:38.280 --> 0:12:41.559
<v Speaker 1>the prior recessions is that the source of the recession

0:12:41.679 --> 0:12:45.520
<v Speaker 1>gets resolved before you start seeing the rotation from growth

0:12:45.520 --> 0:12:48.800
<v Speaker 1>to value. Even though the market can continue to go up,

0:12:48.840 --> 0:12:51.840
<v Speaker 1>you actually see the rotation you know, into value from growth,

0:12:51.880 --> 0:12:54.640
<v Speaker 1>and that's very typical and most of the recessions what

0:12:54.760 --> 0:12:57.760
<v Speaker 1>we what is unique about this one is that these

0:12:57.800 --> 0:13:01.160
<v Speaker 1>looks more as a recession that comes for a nashural

0:13:01.360 --> 0:13:05.440
<v Speaker 1>disaster more than an economic you know, driven recession, and

0:13:05.480 --> 0:13:09.360
<v Speaker 1>the reality those and the majority of the natural disaster recessions,

0:13:09.480 --> 0:13:12.520
<v Speaker 1>they are actually solved because the natural acester has gone.

0:13:12.720 --> 0:13:16.439
<v Speaker 1>In this particular one, we have not solved the source

0:13:16.480 --> 0:13:19.640
<v Speaker 1>of the recession. We're still trying to figure it out,

0:13:19.960 --> 0:13:22.800
<v Speaker 1>and therefore it's going to be very hardly to basically

0:13:22.800 --> 0:13:26.400
<v Speaker 1>think about a series of rotation until we actually have

0:13:26.679 --> 0:13:29.640
<v Speaker 1>our kids to the source of that you know, solution

0:13:29.720 --> 0:13:33.120
<v Speaker 1>for the recession source. I'm a time on time, just

0:13:33.120 --> 0:13:35.319
<v Speaker 1>a quick one from May. Clearly there's many people that

0:13:35.400 --> 0:13:37.560
<v Speaker 1>still haven't come back to the office. Have you got

0:13:37.600 --> 0:13:40.880
<v Speaker 1>any basic assumptions of what happens to volume with guys

0:13:40.960 --> 0:13:43.640
<v Speaker 1>like yourself right now once people start going back to

0:13:43.640 --> 0:13:48.559
<v Speaker 1>the office again. Well, it's actually quite interesting, you know, John,

0:13:48.600 --> 0:13:51.560
<v Speaker 1>because what we actually think is that there is a

0:13:51.600 --> 0:13:54.720
<v Speaker 1>significant amount of people that are actually more comfortable trading

0:13:54.760 --> 0:13:56.959
<v Speaker 1>from home, and in fact, a lot of the activity

0:13:57.240 --> 0:14:00.440
<v Speaker 1>in terms of day trading tends to be more often

0:14:00.760 --> 0:14:03.199
<v Speaker 1>or people that are now have more time to actually

0:14:03.200 --> 0:14:06.200
<v Speaker 1>be training at home, so we we don't necessarily anticipate

0:14:06.280 --> 0:14:09.320
<v Speaker 1>to see any significant change in terms of how the

0:14:09.440 --> 0:14:13.720
<v Speaker 1>different um you know, activity within trading will actually happen.

0:14:13.800 --> 0:14:16.319
<v Speaker 1>Of course, it's solid speculation, you know what we think

0:14:16.320 --> 0:14:19.160
<v Speaker 1>about the bigger players people obviously, like on the asset

0:14:19.200 --> 0:14:22.120
<v Speaker 1>management side, you know, we obviously all are working from

0:14:22.160 --> 0:14:24.560
<v Speaker 1>home and therefore for that is not going to make

0:14:24.600 --> 0:14:26.760
<v Speaker 1>any difference in terms of how we operate now in

0:14:26.840 --> 0:14:30.000
<v Speaker 1>terms of retail clients and in terms of others. Clearly,

0:14:30.120 --> 0:14:32.200
<v Speaker 1>you know, the advantage that they have in terms of

0:14:32.240 --> 0:14:36.360
<v Speaker 1>their technology that is provided by different providers is there.

0:14:36.480 --> 0:14:39.120
<v Speaker 1>So it is it is unclear to me that there

0:14:39.120 --> 0:14:41.160
<v Speaker 1>will be a significant change in the volume that we see,

0:14:41.160 --> 0:14:44.520
<v Speaker 1>and we see a significant pick up invalume already. I'm

0:14:44.520 --> 0:14:47.280
<v Speaker 1>not great to catch up as always, I'm Aguila from

0:14:47.280 --> 0:14:55.040
<v Speaker 1>shaf Thank you right now. In oil, we really ignored

0:14:55.080 --> 0:14:56.960
<v Speaker 1>this since it's been my fault, and we to send

0:14:57.400 --> 0:15:01.720
<v Speaker 1>join us with energy aspects, terrific micro economic analysis of

0:15:01.800 --> 0:15:04.880
<v Speaker 1>what's going on in oil, but also the broader picture

0:15:05.000 --> 0:15:08.160
<v Speaker 1>as well. How do you respond, Emriata to the certitude

0:15:08.160 --> 0:15:10.400
<v Speaker 1>of the pundits that this is just a bad and

0:15:10.520 --> 0:15:17.440
<v Speaker 1>weaker global demand a weaker global economy. Do you buy it? Well, Tom,

0:15:17.440 --> 0:15:20.880
<v Speaker 1>I said that we really never were talking about a

0:15:20.920 --> 0:15:24.480
<v Speaker 1>strong global economy, right. I think, if anything, the price

0:15:24.520 --> 0:15:27.320
<v Speaker 1>of oil is finally catching up with fundamentals. We talked

0:15:27.360 --> 0:15:30.520
<v Speaker 1>about it not that long ago. The kintango in the market,

0:15:30.560 --> 0:15:33.520
<v Speaker 1>so the futures prices was telling us that, you know,

0:15:33.680 --> 0:15:36.720
<v Speaker 1>prices in the future will be higher, um. And that

0:15:36.800 --> 0:15:39.720
<v Speaker 1>was already showing the kintango had widened. It was showing

0:15:39.760 --> 0:15:42.840
<v Speaker 1>the physical market was oversupplied when opek had started to

0:15:42.880 --> 0:15:46.000
<v Speaker 1>ease their carts and US production was coming back a

0:15:46.040 --> 0:15:48.680
<v Speaker 1>little bit. Um. But the price isn't move and that

0:15:48.840 --> 0:15:50.760
<v Speaker 1>was to do with the fact that you know, Fed's

0:15:50.840 --> 0:15:53.640
<v Speaker 1>kept the interest rate so low, sas so much money around,

0:15:53.960 --> 0:15:58.440
<v Speaker 1>and the dollar was extremely weak. Finally those factors changed,

0:15:58.440 --> 0:16:01.200
<v Speaker 1>and that's essentially what dragged price as well. This was

0:16:01.280 --> 0:16:04.320
<v Speaker 1>long over you, um. And I think what this should

0:16:04.360 --> 0:16:07.640
<v Speaker 1>help is accelerate some of those inventory drawdowns which we're

0:16:07.640 --> 0:16:10.480
<v Speaker 1>already seen. But it should get better bigger, um. And

0:16:10.520 --> 0:16:13.280
<v Speaker 1>that's the only way we will rebalance this market. Well, Okay,

0:16:13.320 --> 0:16:15.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna draw the ire of some my co hosts, perhaps,

0:16:15.840 --> 0:16:18.239
<v Speaker 1>but trying to come up with a narrative to understand

0:16:18.640 --> 0:16:22.000
<v Speaker 1>whether the moves in the equity market have been consistent

0:16:22.040 --> 0:16:24.480
<v Speaker 1>with what we're seeing in oil. Oil seemed to be

0:16:24.480 --> 0:16:26.800
<v Speaker 1>moving somewhat independently of the stock cell off that we saw,

0:16:26.840 --> 0:16:30.280
<v Speaker 1>the nastac cell off in particular over the past three sessions,

0:16:30.320 --> 0:16:33.680
<v Speaker 1>particularly having to do with OPEC cutting prices and people

0:16:33.800 --> 0:16:37.320
<v Speaker 1>not increasing their orders all that much. Do you find

0:16:37.440 --> 0:16:39.960
<v Speaker 1>the price action in oil, the weak demand in oil

0:16:40.040 --> 0:16:42.560
<v Speaker 1>to be consistent with the large to the large degree

0:16:42.720 --> 0:16:46.680
<v Speaker 1>the recovery and equity prices. I would say that what

0:16:46.800 --> 0:16:49.440
<v Speaker 1>is the problematic thing with oil? Of course right now

0:16:49.520 --> 0:16:53.440
<v Speaker 1>the headwinds really is that demand is recovering, like you'd say,

0:16:53.480 --> 0:16:55.200
<v Speaker 1>I think, and you can see that in the equity market,

0:16:55.200 --> 0:16:57.760
<v Speaker 1>but also whether it be home sales data and just

0:16:57.840 --> 0:17:01.200
<v Speaker 1>generally even you know, broader mac data in China. Are

0:17:01.240 --> 0:17:03.680
<v Speaker 1>the parts of the world recovering for sure, But it's

0:17:03.720 --> 0:17:07.280
<v Speaker 1>transportation that's the weakness, right and unless and until there's

0:17:07.280 --> 0:17:10.160
<v Speaker 1>a vaccine, it is going to be hard to get

0:17:10.280 --> 0:17:13.679
<v Speaker 1>people moving in the same way. Yes, traffic data is

0:17:13.720 --> 0:17:17.560
<v Speaker 1>picking up, but you know, flying check field demands remains

0:17:17.640 --> 0:17:21.320
<v Speaker 1>at record low still and that is the issue over here,

0:17:21.320 --> 0:17:23.480
<v Speaker 1>and that that's why I think it is correct for

0:17:23.600 --> 0:17:27.040
<v Speaker 1>oil to diverge from equity is broadly. But once you

0:17:27.119 --> 0:17:30.240
<v Speaker 1>have run down the infantry, and once you do get

0:17:30.280 --> 0:17:32.320
<v Speaker 1>the demand recovery, which by the way is a good

0:17:32.400 --> 0:17:36.440
<v Speaker 1>year if not too away, then things will probably correl

0:17:36.480 --> 0:17:38.560
<v Speaker 1>it a lot better. This is crucial, this idea that

0:17:38.600 --> 0:17:41.840
<v Speaker 1>perhaps the economy can recover without keep a flying around

0:17:41.840 --> 0:17:44.480
<v Speaker 1>and traveling around to the degree that they did in

0:17:44.480 --> 0:17:47.400
<v Speaker 1>the past. How low could oil prices go in your view,

0:17:48.600 --> 0:17:51.520
<v Speaker 1>I don't think that when you're talking about the recovery

0:17:51.560 --> 0:17:53.480
<v Speaker 1>in the man we're not saying that the recovery is

0:17:53.480 --> 0:17:56.119
<v Speaker 1>going to go take us back to pre COVID levels. Right.

0:17:56.160 --> 0:17:58.680
<v Speaker 1>We should be very clear on that we are recovering.

0:17:58.880 --> 0:18:02.160
<v Speaker 1>But it's just that unlessen unt that last bit, which

0:18:02.200 --> 0:18:04.880
<v Speaker 1>is going to be very all intensive recovers, we're really

0:18:04.880 --> 0:18:07.719
<v Speaker 1>not going to be able to go back to I

0:18:07.760 --> 0:18:10.359
<v Speaker 1>don't think there's much more than a two dollar you know,

0:18:10.640 --> 0:18:13.360
<v Speaker 1>left in the corrections. We it's been very, very violent.

0:18:13.760 --> 0:18:16.560
<v Speaker 1>I think at around thirty five dollars we should find

0:18:16.600 --> 0:18:19.760
<v Speaker 1>the floor. I think us production, the recovery we were

0:18:19.760 --> 0:18:22.760
<v Speaker 1>seeing very gradual. That's going to go back down again

0:18:23.280 --> 0:18:25.199
<v Speaker 1>um and I think as a result of that, you

0:18:25.240 --> 0:18:29.480
<v Speaker 1>will probably start to see more pressure generally um on

0:18:29.480 --> 0:18:32.680
<v Speaker 1>on those supplies, which again helps in the rebalancing. Is

0:18:32.720 --> 0:18:39.040
<v Speaker 1>this pullback advantageous for Saudi Arabia to provide new discipline

0:18:39.119 --> 0:18:42.919
<v Speaker 1>to OPEC plus? I think it's not going to do

0:18:43.000 --> 0:18:46.480
<v Speaker 1>them any harm, especially given they've been trying to get

0:18:46.520 --> 0:18:51.000
<v Speaker 1>compliance up, and to be honest, Iraq and Nigerian compliance

0:18:51.040 --> 0:18:53.560
<v Speaker 1>has been picking up. It's been more of the other

0:18:53.640 --> 0:18:56.320
<v Speaker 1>GCC countries, some of them that their compliance has been

0:18:56.320 --> 0:18:59.240
<v Speaker 1>slipping off late. But yes, I think that's very much

0:18:59.359 --> 0:19:02.160
<v Speaker 1>the focused and while Saldi Arabia would of course light

0:19:02.240 --> 0:19:04.359
<v Speaker 1>pricing to be around forty dollars, they all have very

0:19:04.400 --> 0:19:07.359
<v Speaker 1>high budgetory requirements. I think this does play to their

0:19:07.400 --> 0:19:09.640
<v Speaker 1>advantage in the short term. What do you see next?

0:19:09.800 --> 0:19:12.320
<v Speaker 1>And Lisa's point, I mean on the date calendar here,

0:19:12.359 --> 0:19:16.439
<v Speaker 1>what does oil do next? I think for now it

0:19:16.480 --> 0:19:19.040
<v Speaker 1>has to consolidate, and unfortunately it's going to be pretty

0:19:19.040 --> 0:19:22.680
<v Speaker 1>boring because unless anounder, the billion barrels we built gets

0:19:22.760 --> 0:19:26.399
<v Speaker 1>kind of absorbed, um, it's really not going to get

0:19:26.440 --> 0:19:29.199
<v Speaker 1>exciting and prices can't really move higher. I think the

0:19:29.240 --> 0:19:31.720
<v Speaker 1>next big thing has to really come from the winter

0:19:31.800 --> 0:19:34.159
<v Speaker 1>demand side. So you know, that's what I think a

0:19:34.160 --> 0:19:37.280
<v Speaker 1>lot of people are focusing on because the macro picture

0:19:37.440 --> 0:19:40.400
<v Speaker 1>is gradually improving, right, but that's very gradual that are

0:19:40.480 --> 0:19:43.359
<v Speaker 1>risked around the second wave and second lockdowns around the world.

0:19:43.640 --> 0:19:45.840
<v Speaker 1>So it's really going to be about the winter demand next.

0:19:47.000 --> 0:19:49.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm rata right to catch up with you this morning.

0:19:49.200 --> 0:19:56.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm ready sad ad Energy aspects. Thank you. This is

0:19:56.520 --> 0:19:59.800
<v Speaker 1>a conversation of the day within the selection season with

0:20:00.280 --> 0:20:03.840
<v Speaker 1>question over what the wealthy the haves are doing with

0:20:03.880 --> 0:20:07.240
<v Speaker 1>their money. Providing leadership on this, including his wonderful new

0:20:07.280 --> 0:20:10.720
<v Speaker 1>book is David Rubinstein, of course, of the Carlisle Group

0:20:11.000 --> 0:20:14.600
<v Speaker 1>and his peer to peer conversations. One of them has

0:20:14.640 --> 0:20:17.040
<v Speaker 1>been with Read Hastings. David, I want to cut to

0:20:17.119 --> 0:20:21.440
<v Speaker 1>the chase Mark benny Off of Salesforce, that doubt component

0:20:21.920 --> 0:20:26.680
<v Speaker 1>in a recent conversation with Bloomberg was scathing about the

0:20:27.080 --> 0:20:31.879
<v Speaker 1>lack of philanthropy, the clumsiness of the new rich of California,

0:20:31.960 --> 0:20:35.439
<v Speaker 1>the new rich of technology. Read Hastings seems to be

0:20:35.480 --> 0:20:40.440
<v Speaker 1>providing real leadership. Here is his gift to black universities

0:20:40.800 --> 0:20:43.880
<v Speaker 1>is that enough to be a game changer, to teach

0:20:44.040 --> 0:20:48.360
<v Speaker 1>the younger crew how to give away the millions. Well,

0:20:48.400 --> 0:20:50.680
<v Speaker 1>it was a twenty million dollar gift and it got

0:20:50.680 --> 0:20:53.320
<v Speaker 1>a lot of attention, as it should have gotten. When

0:20:53.320 --> 0:20:55.120
<v Speaker 1>I asked him about it, he said, he's actually made

0:20:55.280 --> 0:20:58.320
<v Speaker 1>very other large gifts. Actually some are larger, but they

0:20:58.359 --> 0:21:00.679
<v Speaker 1>just haven't been publicized. So I think he will have

0:21:00.720 --> 0:21:02.960
<v Speaker 1>an impact. But I think Mark makes a good point.

0:21:03.040 --> 0:21:05.520
<v Speaker 1>You have people that are now worth tens and twenties

0:21:05.520 --> 0:21:07.800
<v Speaker 1>and thirties and billions of dollars, and you wonder what

0:21:07.800 --> 0:21:10.040
<v Speaker 1>they're gonna do with all that money. I'm just piling

0:21:10.040 --> 0:21:12.400
<v Speaker 1>it up. Well, what do you do with it? I mean,

0:21:12.440 --> 0:21:15.000
<v Speaker 1>this is something you with your successive face and you

0:21:15.000 --> 0:21:18.960
<v Speaker 1>know full disclosure, folks. Mr Bloomberg, the founder of Bloomberg LP,

0:21:19.119 --> 0:21:22.440
<v Speaker 1>in this radio and TV property, his face the same conundrum.

0:21:22.760 --> 0:21:26.000
<v Speaker 1>Why is it so hard for some and particularly these

0:21:26.040 --> 0:21:31.119
<v Speaker 1>young technology types to give money away. Well, typically throughout

0:21:31.119 --> 0:21:33.080
<v Speaker 1>the history of the world, people tended to give away

0:21:33.080 --> 0:21:35.160
<v Speaker 1>money towards the end of their life and they would

0:21:35.200 --> 0:21:37.800
<v Speaker 1>live at the sixties, seventies, eighties. Now a lot of

0:21:37.800 --> 0:21:40.480
<v Speaker 1>people making money in their twenties thirties and forties, and

0:21:40.480 --> 0:21:43.399
<v Speaker 1>they haven't really expected to make this much money, and

0:21:43.400 --> 0:21:45.160
<v Speaker 1>it takes a while for them to give it away.

0:21:45.160 --> 0:21:47.600
<v Speaker 1>I guess hopefully they will do some things. A number

0:21:47.640 --> 0:21:49.840
<v Speaker 1>of these people have signed a giving pledge, as Mike

0:21:49.880 --> 0:21:52.199
<v Speaker 1>Bloomberg has and as I have, But I think it

0:21:52.240 --> 0:21:54.119
<v Speaker 1>will take a while because the amount of money that

0:21:54.160 --> 0:21:58.359
<v Speaker 1>people accumulated quickly is just unbelievable. For example, the founder

0:21:58.400 --> 0:22:00.640
<v Speaker 1>of Tesla, He's now has a net worth of let's

0:22:00.640 --> 0:22:03.560
<v Speaker 1>say seventy billion or hundred billion dollars. He made it

0:22:03.600 --> 0:22:05.480
<v Speaker 1>so quickly. It just takes a while to give it

0:22:05.480 --> 0:22:06.959
<v Speaker 1>away and figure out what you want to do with it.

0:22:07.119 --> 0:22:09.720
<v Speaker 1>But more philanthropy should be done, for sure by all

0:22:09.720 --> 0:22:12.200
<v Speaker 1>the wealthy people that now have it money. So, David,

0:22:12.240 --> 0:22:13.920
<v Speaker 1>there are those who are looking to give away money,

0:22:13.960 --> 0:22:15.639
<v Speaker 1>and then there are other people who are counting on

0:22:15.760 --> 0:22:18.959
<v Speaker 1>continuing to work until they are very old because they

0:22:18.960 --> 0:22:22.439
<v Speaker 1>need to support themselves. For those individuals, uh And speaking

0:22:22.440 --> 0:22:25.280
<v Speaker 1>to your interview with read Hastings, can they expect to

0:22:25.320 --> 0:22:27.600
<v Speaker 1>go back to the office. Can you tell us what

0:22:27.720 --> 0:22:31.320
<v Speaker 1>Netflix is CEO had to say about that? Um? Well,

0:22:31.359 --> 0:22:33.760
<v Speaker 1>I think read Hastings would like people to come back

0:22:33.760 --> 0:22:35.359
<v Speaker 1>to the office, but they want to make certain that

0:22:35.400 --> 0:22:37.919
<v Speaker 1>it's safe and so forth. He's been working remotely and

0:22:37.960 --> 0:22:42.440
<v Speaker 1>actually from uh, you know, his house in California. Many

0:22:42.680 --> 0:22:45.680
<v Speaker 1>CEOs like Read Hastings recognize that people are not coming

0:22:45.720 --> 0:22:49.000
<v Speaker 1>back to work really until there's a vaccine, until there's

0:22:49.080 --> 0:22:52.560
<v Speaker 1>there's safe public transportation, and until there's a lot of

0:22:52.640 --> 0:22:55.280
<v Speaker 1>childcare for you for you people have young children. So

0:22:55.320 --> 0:22:57.080
<v Speaker 1>I think it's gonna take a while. I think you

0:22:57.160 --> 0:22:59.159
<v Speaker 1>probably aren't going to see people back to work in

0:22:59.240 --> 0:23:02.720
<v Speaker 1>full man for another six to nine months. So he

0:23:02.760 --> 0:23:05.239
<v Speaker 1>didn't ask you whether you have a Netflix subscription. And

0:23:05.280 --> 0:23:08.399
<v Speaker 1>we've learned some private information about that, David, which you

0:23:08.440 --> 0:23:10.840
<v Speaker 1>can or cannot share on this program. It's just us,

0:23:11.320 --> 0:23:14.159
<v Speaker 1>but I do want to hear what he expects going forward.

0:23:14.320 --> 0:23:17.199
<v Speaker 1>Was this a blip giving him a boon during this

0:23:17.320 --> 0:23:19.920
<v Speaker 1>work from home era or does he see the success

0:23:20.480 --> 0:23:24.920
<v Speaker 1>par laid into a longer term establishment of streaming as

0:23:24.960 --> 0:23:28.760
<v Speaker 1>the entertainment of choice. Well, when he started Netflix, people

0:23:28.840 --> 0:23:32.240
<v Speaker 1>remember he basically had a system where you you rented

0:23:32.240 --> 0:23:34.639
<v Speaker 1>a DVD and he mailed it to you overnight, you

0:23:34.680 --> 0:23:37.160
<v Speaker 1>mailed it back to him and then he eventually got

0:23:37.160 --> 0:23:39.639
<v Speaker 1>into the streaming business ahead of everybody else and caught

0:23:39.680 --> 0:23:42.440
<v Speaker 1>the rest of Hollywood by a flat footed He built

0:23:42.480 --> 0:23:45.480
<v Speaker 1>the biggest streaming business now with the market value about

0:23:45.480 --> 0:23:48.639
<v Speaker 1>two and twenty three billion dollars, And at one point

0:23:48.760 --> 0:23:51.920
<v Speaker 1>he wanted to sell the company for fifty million dollars

0:23:52.160 --> 0:23:55.000
<v Speaker 1>to then the biggest company doing this blockbuster, and they

0:23:55.000 --> 0:23:57.000
<v Speaker 1>said no, they didn't want to pay fifty million dollars

0:23:57.040 --> 0:23:58.639
<v Speaker 1>for it. That's the best thing that ever happened to

0:23:58.720 --> 0:24:02.359
<v Speaker 1>him financially, David, how do you parse the Netflix is

0:24:02.400 --> 0:24:06.320
<v Speaker 1>and how did Mr Hastings speak about the idea of

0:24:06.480 --> 0:24:11.680
<v Speaker 1>spending spending, spending spending and not really generating profits. How

0:24:11.720 --> 0:24:15.920
<v Speaker 1>do you partition companies that clearly make an income statement

0:24:16.000 --> 0:24:19.600
<v Speaker 1>profit in those where it's not smoke in mirrors but

0:24:19.640 --> 0:24:23.359
<v Speaker 1>it's a little bit mysterious. Well, people made fun of

0:24:23.440 --> 0:24:25.960
<v Speaker 1>Jeff Bezos for a while he was just building market share.

0:24:26.000 --> 0:24:28.360
<v Speaker 1>They said he'd never gonna earn any money. People made

0:24:28.359 --> 0:24:31.280
<v Speaker 1>fun of Elon Musk that that Tesla would never get anywhere,

0:24:31.280 --> 0:24:33.280
<v Speaker 1>and people made fun of Netflix spending a lot of

0:24:33.320 --> 0:24:36.359
<v Speaker 1>money on original content. Turns out that these entrepreneurs have

0:24:36.400 --> 0:24:38.800
<v Speaker 1>had the last laugh so far. Clearly, when you can

0:24:38.840 --> 0:24:41.520
<v Speaker 1>build market share, you can really get a lot of

0:24:41.520 --> 0:24:44.280
<v Speaker 1>customers and they get addicted to what you're what you're producing,

0:24:44.480 --> 0:24:46.680
<v Speaker 1>and ultimately that's what happened to Netflix. People are now

0:24:46.880 --> 0:24:48.840
<v Speaker 1>I want to say, addicted, but people really love it

0:24:49.080 --> 0:24:51.240
<v Speaker 1>and it's really unique. Nobody else is really competing with

0:24:51.280 --> 0:24:54.520
<v Speaker 1>them at the scale they're able to produce and show

0:24:55.000 --> 0:24:58.520
<v Speaker 1>their their their content. David Rubinstein one final question. This

0:24:58.600 --> 0:25:00.720
<v Speaker 1>is quite a security over to soft Bank and the

0:25:01.119 --> 0:25:05.520
<v Speaker 1>latest derivative uproar that we've seen. Could soft Bank do

0:25:05.720 --> 0:25:09.320
<v Speaker 1>what they did in investment management out of Abu Dhabi

0:25:09.400 --> 0:25:12.800
<v Speaker 1>with the ex Deutsche Bank crew. Could they have generated

0:25:12.840 --> 0:25:17.080
<v Speaker 1>these derivative strategies with call options if they were simply

0:25:17.160 --> 0:25:21.480
<v Speaker 1>registered in the United States. I think it would be tougher,

0:25:21.520 --> 0:25:23.120
<v Speaker 1>and I think a lot of people in the investment

0:25:23.119 --> 0:25:26.840
<v Speaker 1>world we're surprised by this because that's a staggering amount

0:25:26.840 --> 0:25:29.639
<v Speaker 1>of money. It appears about twenty billion dollars of call

0:25:29.680 --> 0:25:33.119
<v Speaker 1>options right now. It may be profitable, but it's a

0:25:33.160 --> 0:25:36.120
<v Speaker 1>fairly risky thing to do. David. Let's leave it there.

0:25:36.160 --> 0:25:38.159
<v Speaker 1>Thank you so much, greatly appreciate it, and this is
