WEBVTT - Single Best Idea: Robbert van Batenburg & Skylar Montgomery Koning (Podcast)

0:00:02.400 --> 0:00:13.080
<v Speaker 1>Bloomberg Audio Studios, podcasts, radio news.

0:00:14.320 --> 0:00:18.000
<v Speaker 2>Single best idea to get you into Amoril Day weekend.

0:00:18.040 --> 0:00:20.279
<v Speaker 2>What an a collective group today on a Friday before

0:00:20.280 --> 0:00:23.639
<v Speaker 2>Memorial Day, we get people traveling into New York. It

0:00:23.720 --> 0:00:26.320
<v Speaker 2>was great to see. We had someone coming from Geneva

0:00:26.360 --> 0:00:30.280
<v Speaker 2>with pictape that was really really informative on AI. I'm

0:00:30.280 --> 0:00:32.440
<v Speaker 2>not sure I'm a believer in it, but she tried

0:00:32.440 --> 0:00:35.000
<v Speaker 2>to convince me that I would be a believer in it.

0:00:35.040 --> 0:00:40.320
<v Speaker 2>We had Joe Mysik in legendary at Bloomberg. He is retiring.

0:00:40.440 --> 0:00:46.400
<v Speaker 2>Joe Masik without question. Of two three hundred reporters over

0:00:46.560 --> 0:00:50.400
<v Speaker 2>thirty years, has been the one with the least hysteria.

0:00:50.560 --> 0:00:53.720
<v Speaker 2>He has been a common in professional voice with a

0:00:53.840 --> 0:00:57.560
<v Speaker 2>municipal bond at Research and again. His comments there from

0:00:57.600 --> 0:01:01.440
<v Speaker 2>everything from a minor league baseball financing of the Chicago

0:01:01.560 --> 0:01:05.440
<v Speaker 2>Cubs out to what exactly happened in California in the

0:01:05.440 --> 0:01:09.000
<v Speaker 2>Great Financial Crisis. He was just brilliant as well. Let's

0:01:09.000 --> 0:01:11.680
<v Speaker 2>get through this quickly, because I know in your podcasts

0:01:12.120 --> 0:01:14.959
<v Speaker 2>you got twenty minute podcasts The big take David Gera,

0:01:16.240 --> 0:01:21.720
<v Speaker 2>look for that out on Bloomberg podcasts as well. Lawrence

0:01:21.800 --> 0:01:25.760
<v Speaker 2>McDonald and his cohorts really try to look at some

0:01:25.840 --> 0:01:29.320
<v Speaker 2>of the nuances that are out there. Here's Robert van

0:01:29.360 --> 0:01:33.480
<v Speaker 2>Bettenberg of the bear Trap Report on the view forward.

0:01:33.480 --> 0:01:37.360
<v Speaker 3>In play is international paper? Right, Brazilian companies want to

0:01:37.440 --> 0:01:40.760
<v Speaker 3>looking to buy international paper. By the way, that's a

0:01:40.800 --> 0:01:45.920
<v Speaker 3>testament of how slowly maitually foreign capitals buying the industrial

0:01:45.959 --> 0:01:49.480
<v Speaker 3>heartland of America. But once they take over and absorb

0:01:50.040 --> 0:01:54.200
<v Speaker 3>international paper, there's a splot, a slot opening up for

0:01:54.240 --> 0:01:57.080
<v Speaker 3>another company to go into the SMP. Well, international paper

0:01:57.120 --> 0:02:00.640
<v Speaker 3>as a one point two percent weight, so that's significantly.

0:02:00.640 --> 0:02:03.280
<v Speaker 3>If thirty five trillion dollars is following the S and P,

0:02:03.680 --> 0:02:06.200
<v Speaker 3>that means three hundred and forty fifty billion dollars is

0:02:06.240 --> 0:02:06.920
<v Speaker 3>going to go into that.

0:02:07.080 --> 0:02:09.440
<v Speaker 2>Nvidia does a ten for one stock split, Does that

0:02:09.480 --> 0:02:11.799
<v Speaker 2>make it a doubt component? I mean, does Cisco go

0:02:12.000 --> 0:02:13.440
<v Speaker 2>and then Video goes into the Dow?

0:02:14.520 --> 0:02:17.359
<v Speaker 3>It could be that's up for them. Yeah, I think

0:02:17.400 --> 0:02:21.200
<v Speaker 3>it's a Dow component, and you will have to see.

0:02:21.280 --> 0:02:24.720
<v Speaker 3>I mean, they just made their their Dow changes, so yes,

0:02:24.800 --> 0:02:26.960
<v Speaker 3>I'm sure they're vying for it, but there are other

0:02:27.000 --> 0:02:29.079
<v Speaker 3>companies they're vying for it as well.

0:02:29.000 --> 0:02:32.240
<v Speaker 2>Great conversations. You know, Facy Damian says, I was fired

0:02:32.320 --> 0:02:34.760
<v Speaker 2>up over that conversation. But you know, to think of

0:02:34.800 --> 0:02:37.160
<v Speaker 2>in Nvidia ten for one stock split and the idiocy

0:02:37.200 --> 0:02:39.320
<v Speaker 2>of the Dow that they would go into the Dow

0:02:39.400 --> 0:02:43.440
<v Speaker 2>maybe replace Cisco. You know, I don't know, just absolutely fascinating.

0:02:43.880 --> 0:02:46.680
<v Speaker 2>I can't say enough about Lawrence McDonald's book. He was

0:02:46.720 --> 0:02:48.639
<v Speaker 2>way out front and the wall of money that's there,

0:02:48.680 --> 0:02:54.680
<v Speaker 2>that's Robert then Battenberg, Skuyler, Montgomery Conig is a TS Lombard.

0:02:54.720 --> 0:02:57.120
<v Speaker 2>She writes brilliant note. She's out of the University of

0:02:57.120 --> 0:03:01.119
<v Speaker 2>Saint Andrews and she writes brilliant, brilliant, brilliant notes from

0:03:01.120 --> 0:03:05.119
<v Speaker 2>ts Lombard. Look to them for those smart ideas. Here

0:03:05.240 --> 0:03:08.480
<v Speaker 2>is Skylert, Montgomery Konig for the dollar.

0:03:08.800 --> 0:03:11.160
<v Speaker 4>You know, in the short term, I'm still a bit cautious.

0:03:11.440 --> 0:03:14.280
<v Speaker 4>We're seeing more growth conversions with global growth kind of

0:03:14.320 --> 0:03:17.200
<v Speaker 4>catching up the US growth. At the same time, the

0:03:17.280 --> 0:03:21.120
<v Speaker 4>FED has had an asymmetric reaction function where because we

0:03:21.200 --> 0:03:23.640
<v Speaker 4>know they don't want to hike, the market is looking

0:03:23.639 --> 0:03:26.320
<v Speaker 4>for a reason to be dubbish. At the same time, positioning,

0:03:26.360 --> 0:03:27.679
<v Speaker 4>you know, it's come off of it, but it's still

0:03:27.720 --> 0:03:30.600
<v Speaker 4>stretched along the dollar. However, I am more positive in

0:03:30.639 --> 0:03:33.240
<v Speaker 4>the medium term. You know, growth is converging, but as

0:03:33.280 --> 0:03:36.240
<v Speaker 4>I said, US growth is still outperforming on an absolute basis.

0:03:36.480 --> 0:03:38.160
<v Speaker 4>And the key point is that we still need to

0:03:38.200 --> 0:03:41.440
<v Speaker 4>price policy diversions. Yes, the market is looking for the

0:03:41.440 --> 0:03:44.160
<v Speaker 4>ECB to cut before the FED, but over the next

0:03:44.240 --> 0:03:47.440
<v Speaker 4>year and over the next five years, policy pricing is

0:03:47.480 --> 0:03:49.800
<v Speaker 4>pretty identical. So I think you need to price in

0:03:49.840 --> 0:03:52.360
<v Speaker 4>more dubbishness in Europe and especially the UK, and that

0:03:52.400 --> 0:03:53.760
<v Speaker 4>should be supportive for the dollar.

0:03:54.400 --> 0:03:57.480
<v Speaker 2>Montgomery Knig of ts Lombard there as well. We're going

0:03:57.520 --> 0:04:00.080
<v Speaker 2>to keep this short into a holiday weekend again, and

0:04:00.120 --> 0:04:03.120
<v Speaker 2>we're on Apple CarPlay with some new improvements on Apple

0:04:03.160 --> 0:04:05.960
<v Speaker 2>car Play, they've got a new uptick coming out where

0:04:06.000 --> 0:04:09.040
<v Speaker 2>you can talk to your dashboard and turn the channel

0:04:09.520 --> 0:04:12.000
<v Speaker 2>or turn Apple car Play to Bloomberg Surveillance. I mean

0:04:12.040 --> 0:04:16.159
<v Speaker 2>it's like, you know, we dreamt about that fifty years ago.

0:04:16.400 --> 0:04:20.400
<v Speaker 2>On Android play as well on YouTube search, Bloomberg Podcast

0:04:20.480 --> 0:04:24.440

<v Speaker 2>course on Apple Podcasts. Keeping it short today This is

0:04:32.839 --> 0:04:41.960
<v Speaker 2>single best idea
