WEBVTT - UPDATE: A Global Bond Rout Shakes Markets

0:00:02.600 --> 0:00:05.080
<v Speaker 1>Good morning. It's Wednesday, the fourth of October in London.

0:00:05.160 --> 0:00:08.480
<v Speaker 1>This is the Bloomberg Daybreak Here podcast. I'm Stephen Carroll.

0:00:08.280 --> 0:00:09.880
<v Speaker 2>And I'm Credie Gupta. Coming up today.

0:00:09.880 --> 0:00:12.200
<v Speaker 3>The bond sell off continues as a thirty year US

0:00:12.200 --> 0:00:14.840
<v Speaker 3>treasury yield hits two thousand and seven levels.

0:00:15.200 --> 0:00:18.960
<v Speaker 1>US Republican Kevin McCarthy is ousted as House Speaker by

0:00:19.000 --> 0:00:20.240
<v Speaker 1>those in his own party.

0:00:20.400 --> 0:00:22.920
<v Speaker 3>Plus looking for lightning in a bottle, Rishi Sunac seeks

0:00:22.960 --> 0:00:25.680
<v Speaker 3>to put the Tory agenda back on track. As HS

0:00:25.680 --> 0:00:26.920
<v Speaker 3>two dominates headlines.

0:00:27.120 --> 0:00:29.040
<v Speaker 1>Let's start with a round up of our top stories.

0:00:29.840 --> 0:00:33.400
<v Speaker 3>The US treasury thirty year yield touching five percent for

0:00:33.440 --> 0:00:35.720
<v Speaker 3>the first time since two thousand and seven, the relentless

0:00:35.720 --> 0:00:39.360
<v Speaker 3>selloff in US government bonds is sparking turmoil across global

0:00:39.360 --> 0:00:42.600
<v Speaker 3>bond markets. The route accelerated after the latest US data

0:00:42.640 --> 0:00:45.920
<v Speaker 3>showed job openings increasing by more than expected in August

0:00:46.200 --> 0:00:49.560
<v Speaker 3>to nine point six million. Our market supporter Valery Titel

0:00:49.640 --> 0:00:52.440
<v Speaker 3>says the moves are unprecedented in recent times.

0:00:53.080 --> 0:00:58.080
<v Speaker 4>This route in the treasury market is just absolutely phenomenal. Honestly,

0:00:58.120 --> 0:01:00.120
<v Speaker 4>I've never seen anything like it myself been in the

0:01:00.160 --> 0:01:03.760
<v Speaker 4>markets for nearly fifteen years now. This steepening that we're

0:01:03.760 --> 0:01:08.240
<v Speaker 4>seeing since Drome Powell's testimony two weeks ago. That was

0:01:08.319 --> 0:01:13.640
<v Speaker 4>ten sessions ago. The relentless selloff mentioned there by.

0:01:13.720 --> 0:01:17.200
<v Speaker 3>Valerie Titel in US government bonds is also seeing conditions

0:01:17.200 --> 0:01:19.959
<v Speaker 3>deteriorate in corporate credit. At least two corporate borrow We're

0:01:19.959 --> 0:01:23.680
<v Speaker 3>standing down plant issuances on Tuesday thanks to the market volatility.

0:01:23.959 --> 0:01:27.280
<v Speaker 1>The market reaction comes as Atlanta Fed President Rafile Bostic

0:01:27.319 --> 0:01:30.240
<v Speaker 1>shared his thoughts on the hiking cycle. Speaking at an

0:01:30.240 --> 0:01:33.759
<v Speaker 1>event in Atlanta, Bostik said the FED should hold rates

0:01:33.800 --> 0:01:35.240
<v Speaker 1>at elevated levels.

0:01:36.160 --> 0:01:39.319
<v Speaker 5>I'm grateful to say is that we've seen inflation come down.

0:01:39.680 --> 0:01:42.600
<v Speaker 5>I feel like we're in restrictive space now and now

0:01:42.800 --> 0:01:45.399
<v Speaker 5>we just need to let that restriction play out and

0:01:45.880 --> 0:01:49.160
<v Speaker 5>let it bring inflation, continue to bring inflation down to

0:01:49.280 --> 0:01:51.600
<v Speaker 5>get back into the range of our target, and if

0:01:51.600 --> 0:01:53.440
<v Speaker 5>we can do that, that would be a good thing.

0:01:54.120 --> 0:01:57.080
<v Speaker 1>Bostik's comments come as the US Treasury Secretary Joannet Yellen

0:01:57.120 --> 0:01:59.280
<v Speaker 1>also weighed in on the debate. She told a conference

0:01:59.320 --> 0:02:02.560
<v Speaker 1>in Washington. While the strength of the US economy suggests

0:02:02.640 --> 0:02:05.880
<v Speaker 1>rights will remain higher, for longer. Quote it's by no

0:02:06.040 --> 0:02:06.920
<v Speaker 1>means a given.

0:02:07.800 --> 0:02:10.600
<v Speaker 3>Kevin McCarthy has been ousted as the House Speaker after

0:02:10.639 --> 0:02:14.880
<v Speaker 3>Republican hardliners rebelled over his compromise with Democrats to avert

0:02:14.919 --> 0:02:18.280
<v Speaker 3>a government shutdown. Goldman Sachs says the raises the risk

0:02:18.320 --> 0:02:21.480
<v Speaker 3>of a shutdown next month, as his eventual successor will

0:02:21.520 --> 0:02:23.960
<v Speaker 3>be under quote even more pressure from those on the

0:02:24.000 --> 0:02:26.480
<v Speaker 3>right of the party. The move ends in tumultuous nine

0:02:26.480 --> 0:02:28.640
<v Speaker 3>months in the job for McCarthy, who says he won't

0:02:28.720 --> 0:02:29.919
<v Speaker 3>run for the position again.

0:02:30.480 --> 0:02:34.560
<v Speaker 6>I don't regret standing up for choosing governan over grievance.

0:02:34.840 --> 0:02:38.079
<v Speaker 6>It is my responsibility, it is my job. I do

0:02:38.120 --> 0:02:41.960
<v Speaker 6>not regret negotiating. Our government is designed to find compromise.

0:02:42.160 --> 0:02:47.000
<v Speaker 6>I don't regret my efforts to build coalitions and find solutions.

0:02:47.280 --> 0:02:49.840
<v Speaker 6>I was raised to solve problems, not create them.

0:02:50.440 --> 0:02:53.640
<v Speaker 3>Despite McCarthy's lack of regret, the latest turmoil has fueled

0:02:53.639 --> 0:02:57.120
<v Speaker 3>concerns about deepening dysfunction in Washington. Last time the House

0:02:57.160 --> 0:03:00.280
<v Speaker 3>even voted on removing a speaker was over nineteen ten.

0:03:00.760 --> 0:03:03.040
<v Speaker 3>In that case, the officeholder survive the test.

0:03:03.600 --> 0:03:06.240
<v Speaker 1>The Prime Minister, Rishi Sunac is today expected to announce

0:03:06.240 --> 0:03:09.600
<v Speaker 1>that part of Europe's biggest infrastructure project, HS two is

0:03:09.680 --> 0:03:12.480
<v Speaker 1>being scrapped. It's understood the Prime Minister will use his

0:03:12.520 --> 0:03:15.600
<v Speaker 1>speech to the Conservative Party conference to soften the blow,

0:03:15.760 --> 0:03:18.120
<v Speaker 1>announcing that some of the savings will be used to

0:03:18.120 --> 0:03:21.840
<v Speaker 1>boost other parts of the UK's transport network, but labor

0:03:21.919 --> 0:03:25.000
<v Speaker 1>is greater. Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham says the plan is

0:03:25.040 --> 0:03:25.840
<v Speaker 1>a disgrace.

0:03:26.560 --> 0:03:29.320
<v Speaker 7>Do not pull the plug on the North of England.

0:03:29.440 --> 0:03:32.799
<v Speaker 7>Do not treat people here as second class citizens when

0:03:32.800 --> 0:03:35.840
<v Speaker 7>it comes to transport, because if you do do those things,

0:03:35.960 --> 0:03:37.800
<v Speaker 7>people here will never forget.

0:03:38.600 --> 0:03:41.600
<v Speaker 1>Burnham's criticism has been echoed by both the former Chancellor

0:03:41.640 --> 0:03:45.240
<v Speaker 1>George Osbourne and Conservative West Midlands mayor and E Street.

0:03:45.320 --> 0:03:46.760
<v Speaker 1>Here's what he told Bloomberg Radio.

0:03:47.280 --> 0:03:48.920
<v Speaker 8>My argument is you do need to have AGES two,

0:03:48.920 --> 0:03:50.640
<v Speaker 8>so that's not really the question, is it. And of

0:03:50.680 --> 0:03:53.080
<v Speaker 8>course what's been put to the Prime Minister is a

0:03:53.120 --> 0:03:57.440
<v Speaker 8>proposal which is supported by private businesses to say let

0:03:57.600 --> 0:04:00.120
<v Speaker 8>us try to rethink the leg to the North, but

0:04:00.200 --> 0:04:02.960
<v Speaker 8>it is still needed to win the investment around the world.

0:04:03.920 --> 0:04:06.320
<v Speaker 1>Those comments from Andy Street and others have helped to

0:04:06.360 --> 0:04:09.680
<v Speaker 1>cast a long shadow over the annual Tory gathering. HS

0:04:09.720 --> 0:04:12.760
<v Speaker 1>two was a core plank of the party's previous pledge

0:04:12.760 --> 0:04:15.920
<v Speaker 1>to level up economic opportunities across the country.

0:04:16.480 --> 0:04:19.719
<v Speaker 3>Pallentteer, the data analysis firm co founded by tech billionaire

0:04:19.800 --> 0:04:22.960
<v Speaker 3>Peter Thiel, has emerged as the topic for a major

0:04:23.120 --> 0:04:26.160
<v Speaker 3>NHS data contract. The five year deal could be worth

0:04:26.200 --> 0:04:29.599
<v Speaker 3>close to half a billion pounds and focuses on analyzing

0:04:29.680 --> 0:04:34.320
<v Speaker 3>medical information. Palenteer's relationship with the NHS has been criticized

0:04:34.360 --> 0:04:37.880
<v Speaker 3>by civil rights and patient advocacy groups who worry about

0:04:37.960 --> 0:04:42.080
<v Speaker 3>data privacy and the firm's work with intelligence and defense agencies.

0:04:42.440 --> 0:04:46.000
<v Speaker 1>Billionaire investor Ray Dalio says US China relations are close

0:04:46.040 --> 0:04:48.720
<v Speaker 1>to breaking down. Speaking to Bloomberg's David Weston at the

0:04:49.240 --> 0:04:53.239
<v Speaker 1>Bridgewater Associates, founder warned of the risk of conflict between

0:04:53.279 --> 0:04:54.760
<v Speaker 1>the world's two largest economies.

0:04:55.440 --> 0:04:59.599
<v Speaker 9>The US China relationship are in a number of areas

0:05:00.080 --> 0:05:03.320
<v Speaker 9>on the brink of red lines, so, in other words,

0:05:03.440 --> 0:05:05.760
<v Speaker 9>these irreconcilable differences, they're right on the.

0:05:05.720 --> 0:05:09.240
<v Speaker 1>Brig Dahalio went on to say that the breaking point

0:05:09.279 --> 0:05:11.640
<v Speaker 1>would be if the United States comes out in favor

0:05:11.920 --> 0:05:15.080
<v Speaker 1>of an independent Taiwan, that he said would be quote

0:05:15.120 --> 0:05:19.040
<v Speaker 1>the equivalent of a declaration of war. Dahlio's long nurtured

0:05:19.040 --> 0:05:23.039
<v Speaker 1>relations with Chinese officials and has previously expressed admiration for

0:05:23.120 --> 0:05:27.480
<v Speaker 1>some of Beijing's economic policies. So let's talk more than

0:05:27.560 --> 0:05:31.599
<v Speaker 1>about the route in global bond markets. We've been talking

0:05:31.600 --> 0:05:34.960
<v Speaker 1>this morning about the thirty year treasury yield hitting that

0:05:35.160 --> 0:05:37.920
<v Speaker 1>five percent level for the first time since two thousand

0:05:37.960 --> 0:05:40.800
<v Speaker 1>and seven, just slightly below that at the moment, back

0:05:40.800 --> 0:05:43.240
<v Speaker 1>down around four point nine to nine percent. This is

0:05:43.400 --> 0:05:46.400
<v Speaker 1>a milestone moment for markets at the time that we've

0:05:46.440 --> 0:05:50.520
<v Speaker 1>seen treasuries essentially bulldoze their way through global markets to

0:05:50.560 --> 0:05:52.600
<v Speaker 1>the greatest extens that we saw at the start of

0:05:52.640 --> 0:05:55.479
<v Speaker 1>the pandemic. A market support of Valerie title is with

0:05:55.520 --> 0:05:56.920
<v Speaker 1>us as well, and Critie this is I know you've

0:05:56.920 --> 0:06:00.240
<v Speaker 1>been following closely too. I mean where to start in this.

0:06:00.520 --> 0:06:03.280
<v Speaker 1>First of all, Valari, can we talk about yesterday first?

0:06:03.520 --> 0:06:05.039
<v Speaker 1>And what happened yesterday.

0:06:04.800 --> 0:06:07.120
<v Speaker 4>Was a phenomenal session, one of the worst sessions for

0:06:07.160 --> 0:06:09.440
<v Speaker 4>the treasury market on the year. And not only did

0:06:09.440 --> 0:06:14.040
<v Speaker 4>we have the thirty year yield rise fifteen basis points

0:06:14.080 --> 0:06:16.599
<v Speaker 4>on the session, but all across the curve five year

0:06:16.640 --> 0:06:20.120
<v Speaker 4>tenure and thirty year breached new cycle highs, and it

0:06:20.200 --> 0:06:23.800
<v Speaker 4>is phenomenal to see this move extending in the Asia session,

0:06:23.839 --> 0:06:25.920
<v Speaker 4>in the European session as well as we As you

0:06:25.960 --> 0:06:29.120
<v Speaker 4>just mentioned that thirty year yield breaching five percent. The

0:06:29.160 --> 0:06:32.120
<v Speaker 4>weakness in the equity market is continuing. SMP was down

0:06:32.120 --> 0:06:35.880
<v Speaker 4>some one point four percent today. Futures are falling nearly

0:06:35.880 --> 0:06:38.400
<v Speaker 4>another six tenths so far this morning, so that's a

0:06:38.400 --> 0:06:41.039
<v Speaker 4>two percent move in the next in the last two

0:06:41.080 --> 0:06:43.360
<v Speaker 4>sessions just so far for the S and P five hundred,

0:06:43.760 --> 0:06:46.960
<v Speaker 4>and the route is notable. Globally, Not only did we

0:06:47.000 --> 0:06:50.279
<v Speaker 4>see Japan five year yields breaching a new decade highs,

0:06:50.279 --> 0:06:53.440
<v Speaker 4>we also had Germany ten year yields breaching three percent

0:06:53.480 --> 0:06:56.159
<v Speaker 4>for the first time since twenty eleven. Honestly, there are

0:06:56.200 --> 0:06:59.400
<v Speaker 4>too many superlatives out there for how high these yields

0:06:59.400 --> 0:07:03.160
<v Speaker 4>have gotten in this phenomenal steepening of the treasury curve

0:07:03.160 --> 0:07:06.480
<v Speaker 4>that we have seen over the summer and continuing into

0:07:06.520 --> 0:07:06.840
<v Speaker 4>the fall.

0:07:07.240 --> 0:07:09.160
<v Speaker 3>Well, I think the scariest superlative is these are the

0:07:09.279 --> 0:07:11.520
<v Speaker 3>highest levels in yields going back to two thousand and seven,

0:07:11.560 --> 0:07:14.400
<v Speaker 3>which doesn't exactly instill a lot of confidence in terms

0:07:14.400 --> 0:07:18.080
<v Speaker 3>of what comes next, Valerie, what is the ripple effect here.

0:07:19.160 --> 0:07:20.360
<v Speaker 2>Yet to be seen? That Critty.

0:07:20.920 --> 0:07:23.680
<v Speaker 4>We know that what happened last year here in the UK,

0:07:23.800 --> 0:07:26.200
<v Speaker 4>when we had that such volatility and long end guilt,

0:07:26.280 --> 0:07:29.200
<v Speaker 4>it caused pension funds and insurers to really fall out

0:07:29.200 --> 0:07:31.480
<v Speaker 4>of bed. That one really came out of nowhere. Is

0:07:31.480 --> 0:07:34.200
<v Speaker 4>there some risk lurking in the US at the moment

0:07:34.640 --> 0:07:37.280
<v Speaker 4>for those holders of this long end debt. I mean,

0:07:37.680 --> 0:07:40.640
<v Speaker 4>some of these thirty year treasuries are trading below fifty

0:07:40.680 --> 0:07:43.520
<v Speaker 4>cents on the dollar. Now, that is just an imprecedent

0:07:43.760 --> 0:07:46.480
<v Speaker 4>amount of losses that we are seeing in the treasury market,

0:07:46.520 --> 0:07:50.000
<v Speaker 4>which around the world is known as a safe asset,

0:07:50.080 --> 0:07:52.960
<v Speaker 4>as a safe haven, as something you.

0:07:52.800 --> 0:07:54.720
<v Speaker 2>Hold because it holds its value.

0:07:54.760 --> 0:07:57.440
<v Speaker 4>That's clearly not been the case in the last two

0:07:57.520 --> 0:08:01.200
<v Speaker 4>years in the treasury market. But we're seeings happen elsewhere

0:08:01.240 --> 0:08:05.120
<v Speaker 4>across emerging markets bit jitterly when it comes to this

0:08:05.240 --> 0:08:09.400
<v Speaker 4>dollar strength causing those emerging market currencies to weaken. We

0:08:09.440 --> 0:08:12.560
<v Speaker 4>saw it in the credit markets yesterday. We're seeing credit

0:08:12.640 --> 0:08:17.000
<v Speaker 4>spreads start to creep wider, and some issuers in the

0:08:17.120 --> 0:08:20.520
<v Speaker 4>US yesterday pulling their deals just due to this treasury volatility,

0:08:21.480 --> 0:08:25.239
<v Speaker 4>we're also seeing it in financial conditions. This is something

0:08:25.360 --> 0:08:28.800
<v Speaker 4>that could possibly be in the Fed's favor in some

0:08:28.840 --> 0:08:32.400
<v Speaker 4>way financial conditions and now flipped into tightening territory due

0:08:32.440 --> 0:08:34.840
<v Speaker 4>to the strengthening dollar due to this rise in yields

0:08:35.200 --> 0:08:37.680
<v Speaker 4>and due to these credit spreads beginning to widen crazy.

0:08:37.679 --> 0:08:39.960
<v Speaker 1>Can we talk a bit about the kind of political

0:08:40.240 --> 0:08:44.160
<v Speaker 1>implications here as well, because of course, higher yields immediately

0:08:44.200 --> 0:08:46.280
<v Speaker 1>means the cost of borrowing for the US government gets

0:08:46.320 --> 0:08:49.520
<v Speaker 1>even higher. And part of this story is the supply

0:08:49.679 --> 0:08:52.160
<v Speaker 1>issue around the fact that the US government is borrowing

0:08:52.240 --> 0:08:52.920
<v Speaker 1>that much more.

0:08:53.280 --> 0:08:54.040
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it really is.

0:08:54.080 --> 0:08:55.680
<v Speaker 3>And I think part of this is as well, and

0:08:55.760 --> 0:08:57.560
<v Speaker 3>this is something that Valerie could probably weigh in on

0:08:57.640 --> 0:08:59.800
<v Speaker 3>as well. As you look at the thirty year yield,

0:09:00.160 --> 0:09:01.520
<v Speaker 3>is the yield that a lot of people are.

0:09:01.440 --> 0:09:03.520
<v Speaker 2>Taking out mortgages on as well. Just on the surface

0:09:03.559 --> 0:09:03.920
<v Speaker 2>as well.

0:09:04.160 --> 0:09:06.720
<v Speaker 3>So when you were talking about a crack in the markets,

0:09:06.760 --> 0:09:09.080
<v Speaker 3>the fact that the long end affects the housing market,

0:09:09.440 --> 0:09:11.720
<v Speaker 3>well that's going to affect the broader economy. Can you

0:09:11.760 --> 0:09:14.240
<v Speaker 3>imagine going into twenty twenty four when people are kind

0:09:14.280 --> 0:09:17.200
<v Speaker 3>of hitting all of their or say, submitting their ballots

0:09:17.440 --> 0:09:22.160
<v Speaker 3>and suddenly their household wealth has completely been eliminated or

0:09:22.280 --> 0:09:25.040
<v Speaker 3>is even more expensive than initially thought, those mortgage payments

0:09:25.080 --> 0:09:25.760
<v Speaker 3>getting higher.

0:09:25.920 --> 0:09:26.800
<v Speaker 2>I think James.

0:09:26.520 --> 0:09:30.480
<v Speaker 3>Carville, the political famous political strategists, had said, it's the economy, stupid,

0:09:30.559 --> 0:09:33.160
<v Speaker 3>that's how you decide who's president. This isn't I mean,

0:09:33.440 --> 0:09:36.240
<v Speaker 3>how you punctuate that is quite important. Well, it really is,

0:09:36.280 --> 0:09:39.040
<v Speaker 3>but I mean that happens to be the sense. And

0:09:39.080 --> 0:09:41.440
<v Speaker 3>I think that's been the concern around why gasoline prices,

0:09:41.480 --> 0:09:44.520
<v Speaker 3>for example, are such a political mover, but housing is

0:09:44.559 --> 0:09:45.160
<v Speaker 3>not far behind.

0:09:45.280 --> 0:09:47.440
<v Speaker 1>But this is happening at a time when you know,

0:09:47.720 --> 0:09:51.439
<v Speaker 1>even within the US bascal scene, there's more upheaval because

0:09:51.480 --> 0:09:54.640
<v Speaker 1>Kevin McCarthy has now gone a speaker, putting essentially Congress

0:09:54.640 --> 0:09:56.200
<v Speaker 1>into staces until I figure that out.

0:09:56.200 --> 0:09:58.720
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I mean, look, it's not the best time in

0:09:58.920 --> 0:10:01.560
<v Speaker 3>Washington right now. We aren't exactly setting a great precedent,

0:10:02.000 --> 0:10:03.480
<v Speaker 3>I want to say, in terms of leadership. But I

0:10:03.520 --> 0:10:05.640
<v Speaker 3>think what you have to keep in mind here is that, look,

0:10:05.679 --> 0:10:07.680
<v Speaker 3>this shutdown just got a whole lot harder. And I

0:10:07.679 --> 0:10:10.600
<v Speaker 3>think those are the calls that matter from a political standpoint.

0:10:10.280 --> 0:10:12.280
<v Speaker 1>Because we brought six weeks away.

0:10:12.800 --> 0:10:15.680
<v Speaker 3>November seventeenth, Yeah, is when the US government shuts down.

0:10:15.720 --> 0:10:17.560
<v Speaker 3>And look, I think just for some kind of inside

0:10:17.559 --> 0:10:20.000
<v Speaker 3>baseball here or inside cricket as I believe it's called

0:10:20.040 --> 0:10:24.400
<v Speaker 3>on this side of the ocean, is basically that one

0:10:24.440 --> 0:10:27.280
<v Speaker 3>of the major issues of this spending bill has been

0:10:27.320 --> 0:10:28.200
<v Speaker 3>you can't touch the fence.

0:10:28.240 --> 0:10:28.640
<v Speaker 2>Spending.

0:10:29.120 --> 0:10:32.360
<v Speaker 3>Ukrainian aid has kind of gone out the window essentially,

0:10:32.640 --> 0:10:34.160
<v Speaker 3>and then a lot of it is coming down as

0:10:34.200 --> 0:10:36.400
<v Speaker 3>well as how you tackle eventually what will be the

0:10:36.400 --> 0:10:37.240
<v Speaker 3>debt load as well.

0:10:37.280 --> 0:10:39.479
<v Speaker 2>And there are calls coming out of Goldman that are saying.

0:10:39.400 --> 0:10:42.920
<v Speaker 3>Because of the political politicization of this, you are now

0:10:42.960 --> 0:10:45.000
<v Speaker 3>going to see it become even harder to actually hit

0:10:45.040 --> 0:10:46.160
<v Speaker 3>a bipartisan deal.

0:10:46.600 --> 0:10:48.120
<v Speaker 2>It come November seventeenth.

0:10:48.240 --> 0:10:50.880
<v Speaker 3>The first people that get hit in a shutdown are

0:10:50.920 --> 0:10:54.040
<v Speaker 3>your servicemen, are your troops. And again coming from the South,

0:10:54.440 --> 0:10:56.920
<v Speaker 3>that is a real sticking point for a lot of

0:10:56.960 --> 0:10:59.640
<v Speaker 3>the folks who are very passionate about our army battery.

0:11:00.000 --> 0:11:01.920
<v Speaker 4>Sorry, go aheadah, And you have to wonder whether the

0:11:01.960 --> 0:11:05.760
<v Speaker 4>markets are really going to force some political change when

0:11:05.800 --> 0:11:08.520
<v Speaker 4>it comes to Washington, and just how much money they're

0:11:08.559 --> 0:11:12.360
<v Speaker 4>spending because I'll give you some shocking stats. Thirty percent

0:11:12.400 --> 0:11:16.280
<v Speaker 4>of treasuries have to be refinanced in the next sixteen months,

0:11:16.320 --> 0:11:18.600
<v Speaker 4>and a lot of questions are now being raised as

0:11:18.640 --> 0:11:21.080
<v Speaker 4>to whether those debt financing costs are going to become

0:11:21.720 --> 0:11:24.640
<v Speaker 4>too much of a burden to the US government and

0:11:24.720 --> 0:11:29.120
<v Speaker 4>possibly push the path towards fiscal unsustainability. We had a

0:11:29.120 --> 0:11:32.720
<v Speaker 4>call out from Goldman yesterday noting that they see interest

0:11:32.840 --> 0:11:37.000
<v Speaker 4>expense rising to four percent of GDP by twenty thirty.

0:11:37.040 --> 0:11:40.120
<v Speaker 4>That is a shocking statistic. It has not gone much

0:11:40.200 --> 0:11:42.959
<v Speaker 4>above two percent. I think the highest it was was

0:11:43.000 --> 0:11:45.360
<v Speaker 4>back in the nineteen nineties where we reached two percent.

0:11:45.720 --> 0:11:48.240
<v Speaker 4>But if we're really headed for this higher for longer

0:11:48.480 --> 0:11:51.360
<v Speaker 4>situation in the bond market, the US government could be

0:11:51.400 --> 0:11:52.679
<v Speaker 4>the first casualty of them.

0:11:52.800 --> 0:11:54.960
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Votari, Can we talk a bit about the international

0:11:54.960 --> 0:11:56.760
<v Speaker 1>impact of this as well, because I mean, we've seen

0:11:56.760 --> 0:11:59.120
<v Speaker 1>the German YO curve has uninversed in the past few minutes,

0:11:59.160 --> 0:12:02.280
<v Speaker 1>because we've seen the thirty year yields move above where

0:12:02.280 --> 0:12:04.760
<v Speaker 1>the two year yield is the ten year German bundshield

0:12:04.840 --> 0:12:08.200
<v Speaker 1>and over three percent for the first time since twenty eleven.

0:12:08.440 --> 0:12:11.760
<v Speaker 1>This is a story that is rippling through markets across

0:12:11.760 --> 0:12:12.080
<v Speaker 1>the world.

0:12:12.120 --> 0:12:15.120
<v Speaker 4>It's rippling through and let's be clear, the Central Bank

0:12:15.280 --> 0:12:17.360
<v Speaker 4>in Europe and the Central Bank here in the UK

0:12:17.559 --> 0:12:19.520
<v Speaker 4>have really no control over what's going on.

0:12:19.679 --> 0:12:22.720
<v Speaker 2>This will tighten financial conditions.

0:12:22.200 --> 0:12:25.080
<v Speaker 4>Globally as we see yields rise, and that is not

0:12:25.240 --> 0:12:28.440
<v Speaker 4>something the ECB or the Bank of England can necessarily fight.

0:12:28.520 --> 0:12:31.880
<v Speaker 4>This is being led by the US, and let's be honest,

0:12:31.880 --> 0:12:33.920
<v Speaker 4>even in the US, the FED really does have no

0:12:34.000 --> 0:12:38.240
<v Speaker 4>control over long end yields unless they intend on embarking

0:12:38.320 --> 0:12:41.480
<v Speaker 4>again on quantitative easing, which is something I don't think

0:12:41.520 --> 0:12:43.640
<v Speaker 4>they have necessarily on their radar. So this is going

0:12:43.679 --> 0:12:46.200
<v Speaker 4>to be a very very hard thing for not just

0:12:46.240 --> 0:12:48.600
<v Speaker 4>politicians but for central banks to fight.

0:12:50.080 --> 0:12:52.559
<v Speaker 1>The other aspect of this, of course, to think about,

0:12:52.320 --> 0:12:56.240
<v Speaker 1>is where we see the other asset classes. Essentially, as

0:12:56.280 --> 0:12:58.280
<v Speaker 1>I look across the sea of Red on my Bloomberg

0:12:58.360 --> 0:13:01.880
<v Speaker 1>terminal this morning, well, I mean, when we're thinking about

0:13:01.880 --> 0:13:04.920
<v Speaker 1>what happens next in this story, Valerie, where do we

0:13:04.960 --> 0:13:08.600
<v Speaker 1>need to watch for what might either accelerate this further

0:13:09.080 --> 0:13:11.160
<v Speaker 1>or potentially bring some calm to market.

0:13:11.320 --> 0:13:13.560
<v Speaker 2>Well, my mind goes straight to the big data.

0:13:13.600 --> 0:13:13.840
<v Speaker 7>We have.

0:13:13.920 --> 0:13:16.520
<v Speaker 4>On Friday, we get the monthly payroll report out of

0:13:16.559 --> 0:13:20.040
<v Speaker 4>the US, which if it does reflect a hotter than

0:13:20.080 --> 0:13:24.880
<v Speaker 4>expected labor market. Yet again, we could see a bit

0:13:24.880 --> 0:13:27.000
<v Speaker 4>more panic when it comes to the treasury market and

0:13:27.000 --> 0:13:30.560
<v Speaker 4>that hit equities and strengthen the dollar as well. That

0:13:30.600 --> 0:13:33.080
<v Speaker 4>could be the next kicker. But I mean it could

0:13:33.080 --> 0:13:35.280
<v Speaker 4>also be the kicker that could end the selloff. Right

0:13:35.320 --> 0:13:38.480
<v Speaker 4>if we get a week payroll print, let's say, way

0:13:38.520 --> 0:13:41.600
<v Speaker 4>weaker than expected, we could all calm down now thinking

0:13:41.600 --> 0:13:43.600
<v Speaker 4>that the US economy is going to slow down. Maybe

0:13:43.600 --> 0:13:46.079
<v Speaker 4>this higher for longer mantra is a bit of a lie,

0:13:46.200 --> 0:13:49.640
<v Speaker 4>kind of like transitory, and that's on the horizon. So

0:13:49.679 --> 0:13:52.120
<v Speaker 4>I think Friday's data is going to be pivotal for

0:13:52.200 --> 0:13:52.920
<v Speaker 4>what happens forward.

0:13:53.160 --> 0:13:55.959
<v Speaker 3>Spoken like a true macro thinker, I'll do the micro

0:13:56.080 --> 0:13:58.400
<v Speaker 3>here because I'll take the other side of it, which

0:13:58.480 --> 0:14:00.559
<v Speaker 3>is when you look at the ripple effects in terms

0:14:00.559 --> 0:14:02.360
<v Speaker 3>of this in terms of this market, take a look

0:14:02.400 --> 0:14:04.319
<v Speaker 3>at what the stock market has not priced in the

0:14:04.360 --> 0:14:07.520
<v Speaker 3>stock market around the world, I might add, has not

0:14:07.600 --> 0:14:10.079
<v Speaker 3>priced in this higher bar wing cost. We know that

0:14:10.080 --> 0:14:11.640
<v Speaker 3>the FED has been hiking, We know that a lot

0:14:11.640 --> 0:14:13.880
<v Speaker 3>of these has been priced in for twenty twenty two.

0:14:13.960 --> 0:14:16.600
<v Speaker 3>It has not been priced in for the varshocks, which

0:14:16.640 --> 0:14:19.680
<v Speaker 3>essentially means that all the selling momentum that you're seeing

0:14:19.680 --> 0:14:21.680
<v Speaker 3>at a lot of these trading desks that hasn't been

0:14:21.680 --> 0:14:23.720
<v Speaker 3>priced into the stock market. Another place we're going to

0:14:23.720 --> 0:14:26.400
<v Speaker 3>see a disconnect is when oil starts trading in line

0:14:26.440 --> 0:14:28.400
<v Speaker 3>with the global sentiment at a time, by the way,

0:14:28.640 --> 0:14:32.200
<v Speaker 3>when over and over again we see these physical supply shortages,

0:14:32.560 --> 0:14:34.840
<v Speaker 3>and yet the market is trading in line with the

0:14:34.880 --> 0:14:37.120
<v Speaker 3>stock market, or the bond market, or even the stronger

0:14:37.160 --> 0:14:40.680
<v Speaker 3>dollar is responding to that as opposed to the fundamental

0:14:41.000 --> 0:14:43.120
<v Speaker 3>kind of tailwinds for that price. And I think that's

0:14:43.120 --> 0:14:44.920
<v Speaker 3>where you're going to start to see the dislocations really

0:14:44.960 --> 0:14:45.400
<v Speaker 3>show up.
