Speaker 1: to taking stock with Pim Box and Kathleen Hayes on

32
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 1: Bloomberg Radio. The health of the global economy, the strength

33
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:47,720
Speaker 1: of manufacturers around the world post Brexit. This is what

34
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:49,720
Speaker 1: we're going to dive into now and what it may

35
00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:52,920
Speaker 1: mean for some key commodities. To who's whose health is

36
00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:56,600
Speaker 1: so important to the health of the US and global economy.

37
00:01:56,960 --> 00:02:00,200
Speaker 1: Jason Shanker joins US now. He's President Prestige Economy X.

38
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:04,560
Speaker 1: He's located in Austin, Texas in studio Rachel Adams Hurt.

39
00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:07,400
Speaker 1: She's part of Our America's Oil team here in New

40
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:10,000
Speaker 1: York City. So Jason, let's start with you. I spoke

41
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 1: earlier today with Brad Holcomb from the Institute of Supply Management,

42
00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:16,000
Speaker 1: and we talked about US manufacturing. It's going pretty decently,

43
00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:18,440
Speaker 1: fastest growth in more than a year. But why don't

44
00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 1: you and I and Rachel look at the Euro Area

45
00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:25,959
Speaker 1: numbers because it's surprising that Euro Area manufacturing was going

46
00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:28,080
Speaker 1: as fast as pace in six months. But can that

47
00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:32,520
Speaker 1: last post Brexit? Well, I think you know you've hit

48
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:34,840
Speaker 1: the nail on the head here that things looked pretty

49
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:39,280
Speaker 1: good going into Briggs and even the UK manufacturing numbers

50
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:42,679
Speaker 1: were up quite a lot, went up to fifty two

51
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,960
Speaker 1: point one from fifty point one, you know, uh, and

52
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:47,840
Speaker 1: and the Euros it was at fifty two point from

53
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,080
Speaker 1: fifty one point five. We're fifty as a break even

54
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:53,079
Speaker 1: for all of these. These all look good, but after breakfit,

55
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 1: I think they're significant. Concern about investment and if that

56
00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:00,919
Speaker 1: investment is reduced, you could see new orders be reduced

57
00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:04,760
Speaker 1: as well. And I could weigh on on manufacturing. Although

58
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:06,720
Speaker 1: it's a bit of a mixed bag for the UK,

59
00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 1: where exporters might still do quite well in this low

60
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:12,520
Speaker 1: pound environment. You know, some are saying that it breaks

61
00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:14,840
Speaker 1: it behind the commodities market. You know, door is open

62
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,960
Speaker 1: for prices of things like oil to keep rising. This

63
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,400
Speaker 1: is one of your specialties, Jason. What do you see

64
00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:23,440
Speaker 1: for the price of oil moving ahead now? After breaks

65
00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 1: A lot of uncertainty is still around. Yeah, I know.

66
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:27,520
Speaker 1: I think for the balance of the year, we're going

67
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:29,720
Speaker 1: to spend most of the year between this second half

68
00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:32,880
Speaker 1: between forty and sixty dollars a barrel. I think that

69
00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 1: what's really important here is kind of a mix. When

70
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:39,000
Speaker 1: I look at forecasting commodity prices, it's a mix of

71
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:41,120
Speaker 1: three p M I S I look at the I

72
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:44,840
Speaker 1: s M, which is expansionary right now UM at that

73
00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:47,760
Speaker 1: high level for June and fifty three point two, the

74
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:50,360
Speaker 1: eurosone manufacturing which is pretty strong and fifty two point

75
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,720
Speaker 1: UH and the Chinese manufacturing p M I. If you

76
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 1: look at the Sichine which is the privately conducted one

77
00:03:56,880 --> 00:04:00,680
Speaker 1: of the government survey that's contracted now for eighteen of

78
00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:03,400
Speaker 1: the past nineteen months. In other words, there's been a

79
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:06,960
Speaker 1: manufacturing recession in China for over a year and a half,

80
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:10,440
Speaker 1: so the mix of it is better than it's been

81
00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:13,640
Speaker 1: in a number of months, which is positive, But China

82
00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 1: continues to risk being a drag and if there is

83
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:22,320
Speaker 1: reduced investment into Europe um then there could be issues

84
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:25,120
Speaker 1: with growth slowing there as well. So, Rachel, let's turn

85
00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:27,800
Speaker 1: to you. You wrote a story this week about cheap

86
00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:32,960
Speaker 1: gasoline and how that could mean a fuel record demand

87
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:36,040
Speaker 1: for the fourth of July holiday. What's going on? Yeah,

88
00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:39,680
Speaker 1: so Triple A expects that nearly forty three million Americans

89
00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:42,479
Speaker 1: are going to be traveling this holiday weekend and that's

90
00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:45,120
Speaker 1: due in part because of cheap gasoline prices, but also

91
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:47,279
Speaker 1: because it's the three day weekend and we've had a

92
00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:50,240
Speaker 1: few past couple of years for July four UM, so

93
00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:52,839
Speaker 1: this one is no different. And with more people saving

94
00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:55,960
Speaker 1: money from cheap gas and because that gasoline is so

95
00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:58,400
Speaker 1: cheap right now, it s incentivising Americans to hit throat.

96
00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:01,039
Speaker 1: So the reporting of done for this story and other

97
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:03,760
Speaker 1: work you've done on oil is it? Is it the

98
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:06,520
Speaker 1: when you talk to the analysts and the oil experts,

99
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 1: are are they seeing sufficient demand to keep oil prices

100
00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:14,560
Speaker 1: around this level? Or higher. Well, a recent Bloomberg Intelligence

101
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:18,839
Speaker 1: survey actually found that more than fifty percent of analysts

102
00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:22,960
Speaker 1: and energy professionals expect that gas will in the year

103
00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:26,240
Speaker 1: I mean oil, excuse me, oil in the year at

104
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:29,279
Speaker 1: fifty dollars a barrel or more. Um. And those respondents

105
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:33,279
Speaker 1: were actually more bullish on Brent crude. Where about saw

106
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:37,119
Speaker 1: that that oil within the that price range? Okay, Jason

107
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,800
Speaker 1: Shanker back to you. Um if I'm oh boy there.

108
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:42,360
Speaker 1: The central banks are really in play right now, aren't they.

109
00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:45,279
Speaker 1: The Bank of England maybe cutting the rate rates twice.

110
00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:47,279
Speaker 1: It's a lot of economists think the Fed on hold.

111
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:50,000
Speaker 1: Stanley Fisher, FED Vice chair got to see what the

112
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,120
Speaker 1: impact of briggs It is before you look at rates.

113
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:56,080
Speaker 1: What's going to happen? Well, you know, I think I

114
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,919
Speaker 1: think you know my thoughts on this. I know I

115
00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:01,440
Speaker 1: spoke with you when my my book Recession Proof came

116
00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:03,680
Speaker 1: out at the end of February. I've been expecting on

117
00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:07,640
Speaker 1: end of two thousand sixteen or two seventeen US recession.

118
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:11,040
Speaker 1: I think that's already been baked in. And regardless of

119
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:13,760
Speaker 1: what happened with Breggsit, I think Breggs it just pushes

120
00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:16,680
Speaker 1: US further in that direction. I think there's a risk

121
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:20,400
Speaker 1: of a UK recession, and that's been acknowledged as a

122
00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:24,640
Speaker 1: result of reduced investment despite a likely increase in exports.

123
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:27,960
Speaker 1: And you know, the Eurozone and the entire global economy

124
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 1: are very much on the edge. I mean, the i

125
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:33,920
Speaker 1: m F lowered their growth forecast back in April significantly.

126
00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:37,440
Speaker 1: In the press conference, one of the heads of research said,

127
00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:41,000
Speaker 1: we're not presently in a crisis, we're on alert for

128
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:45,039
Speaker 1: a crisis. This was back in April, right, So I'll

129
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:46,880
Speaker 1: be very curious to see that next round of i

130
00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:49,839
Speaker 1: m S growth forecast. But the world banks lowered THEIRS,

131
00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 1: and the IMF recently lowered the US growth forecast, not

132
00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:54,560
Speaker 1: only two point two for the year. I think we're

133
00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:57,080
Speaker 1: in for some real slowing. I think autos are the

134
00:06:57,160 --> 00:07:01,039
Speaker 1: lynchpin for the US economy right now. They were very

135
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:05,160
Speaker 1: strong last year. If you look year over your retail

136
00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:09,320
Speaker 1: sales excluding autos was at a lower pace than in

137
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:13,760
Speaker 1: two thousand one, so autos, a million extra cars were

138
00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:16,240
Speaker 1: and light trucks were sold. Last year. We went from

139
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:20,040
Speaker 1: sixteen point four million vehicles in two thousand fourteen to

140
00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:23,160
Speaker 1: seven teen point four million last year. And if the

141
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:26,120
Speaker 1: financial regulators push on banks to be more conservative with

142
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:28,640
Speaker 1: the credit, you're going to get a reduction in subprime

143
00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:31,400
Speaker 1: auto loans at a time when the lease fleets that

144
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:35,000
Speaker 1: are coming back this year are three times the size

145
00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:37,560
Speaker 1: of normal returning God, leave it there, Jason Shanker, thanks
