Palestinian authority says it's 3 00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:12,880 Speaker 1: working with US officials on a plan to run Gaza 4 00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:14,840 Speaker 1: after the war. Let's get to add back to for 5 00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:15,600 Speaker 1: the latest Eddy. 6 00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:18,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right.

One second, 11 00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:38,080 Speaker 3: Gaza should not shrink in terms of territory, and Israel 12 00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:41,720 Speaker 3: should not be allowed to annex certain areas that they 13 00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:45,560 Speaker 3: might call Baffar zones and so on. Third, there should 14 00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:49,920 Speaker 3: not be any forced transfer of Palestinians out of Gaza. 15 00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:54,520 Speaker 3: Egypt has been cooperating very well. And also this is 16 00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:57,320 Speaker 3: something that we did not want to see in the 17 00:00:57,320 --> 00:00:59,920 Speaker 3: same way that American administration did not want to see. 18 00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:02,120 Speaker 2: And he says the best solution would be for Hamas 19 00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:04,920 Speaker 2: to come under the umbrella of the PLO and help 20 00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:08,560 Speaker 2: build an independent state. This while Benjamin Nett, Yahoo and 21 00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:12,400 Speaker 2: Vladimir Putin. Vladimir Putin have held a lengthy talk today 22 00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:15,640 Speaker 2: as tensions have mounted over Russia's ties with Iran. Net 23 00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:19,600 Speaker 2: and Yahoo statements has he strongly criticized a dangerous cooperation 24 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:23,640 Speaker 2: between Russia and Iran and expressed his displeasure with Moscow. 25 00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:27,520 Speaker 2: Putin has criticized Israel's tactics in the war in Gaza, 26 00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:31,360 Speaker 2: and US Secretary of State Anthony Blincoln says Hamas just 27 00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 2: plainly has to give up. 28 00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:35,920 Speaker 4: There's a gap between the intent and the results, and 29 00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 4: that's the gap that we're trying to make sure it 30 00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:41,640 Speaker 4: is closed. Look, this could be over tomorrow. This could 31 00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,320 Speaker 4: be over tomorrow if a mos got out of the 32 00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:46,920 Speaker 4: way of civilians instead of hiding behind them, if it 33 00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 4: put down its weapons, if it's surrendered. 34 00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:52,120 Speaker 2: So pivoting to Ukraine, Lincoln says the move to pass 35 00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:55,080 Speaker 2: Congress to get tank ammunition to Ukraine is critical. 36 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:58,400 Speaker 4: A small portion of what has been requested is going 37 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:03,840 Speaker 4: through on an emergency basis, is moving quickly so that 38 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 4: Israel can have what it needs in hand, but virtually 39 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:11,360 Speaker 4: everything else is going through the regular order through Congress. 40 00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:14,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, and the White House has issued a statement saying 41 00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:17,920 Speaker 2: the President has invited Ukraine's President Vladimir Zelenski to the 42 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:20,680 Speaker 2: White House for a meeting on Tuesday.

The 47 00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:45,040 Speaker 5: window is closing to close the gaps. We are making progress, 48 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:51,600 Speaker 5: but not fast enough. I'm not satisfying enough now. 49 00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 2: Several US senators are there. Senator Ed Markey says Opek 50 00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:59,080 Speaker 2: is working against getting an agreement. I'm reducing greenhouse emissions. 51 00:02:59,240 --> 00:02:59,520 Speaker 6: Ope. 52 00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:09,680 Speaker 7: The oil companies right now trying to whitewash the Clark 53 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:17,760 Speaker 7: crisis that has been created by Bossal Fuels, and US's 54 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 7: companies are part of this as well. 55 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:20,680 Speaker 6: Now. 56 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:23,360 Speaker 2: Markey says, at least, at the very least, they're working 57 00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 2: to water it down. Chinese and Philippine vessels have faced 58 00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:28,880 Speaker 2: off on multiple clashes in the South China Sea over 59 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:32,400 Speaker 2: the weekend. A Philippines task force says its vessels were 60 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 2: damaged after being directly targeted yesterday by a Chinese Coastguard 61 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 2: boat using a water cannon. Global News twenty four hours 62 00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 2: a day and whenever you want it with Bloomberg News 63 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 2: Now in San Francisco. I'm ed Baxter in. 64 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:48,440 Speaker 1: This is Bloomberg Eddie b Thank you well. This is 65 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 1: going to be the first opportunity for markets in Asia 66 00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 1: to react to that US jobs data from Friday and 67 00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:57,000 Speaker 1: unexpected strengthening in the month of November, an increase in 68 00:03:57,080 --> 00:04:00,560 Speaker 1: non farm payrolls of one hundred and ninety nine thousand 69 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:03,640 Speaker 1: that obviously above estimates, and it seemed to temper bets 70 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 1: on FED rate cuts. Former US Treasury Secretary Larry Summers 71 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:10,520 Speaker 1: was saying the FED should wait. He said, the moment 72 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:14,080 Speaker 1: the FED turns or announces it's going to turn is 73 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:15,720 Speaker 1: going to be a seismic moment. 74 00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:21,000 Speaker 8: They probably need to be very deliberative and careful about 75 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:26,159 Speaker 8: getting to that point and waiting until they see some 76 00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:34,640 Speaker 8: overwhelming evidence of inflation being locked in low or see 77 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 8: some real evidence of the economy turning over. 78 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 1: That is former US Treasury Secretary Larry Summers. By the way, 79 00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:44,040 Speaker 1: the FED will meet this week. We'll have a decision 80 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:47,920 Speaker 1: on Wednesday. Officials are widely expected to hold the key 81 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:50,240 Speaker 1: policy rates steady Paul. 82 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:54,720 Speaker 9: University of Pennsylvania president Liz McGill and board chairs Scott 83 00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 9: Bock resigned this weekend.

Senator Casey 88 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:19,040 Speaker 9: said reports of antisemitic incidents have increased almost fourfold since 89 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:21,760 Speaker 9: the start of the war between Israel and Hamas with 90 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:25,120 Speaker 9: many of the incidents reported on college campuses. 91 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 10: Those of us who have the authority in this case 92 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 10: one legislative body, the United States Congress or two houses 93 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:35,160 Speaker 10: of one Congress, is to get them the funds they 94 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:40,480 Speaker 10: need so they can fully investigate and prosecute these cases 95 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:44,240 Speaker 10: where there is a hostile environment on the campus. 96 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:47,280 Speaker 9: That's Pennsylvania Senator Bob Casey. 97 00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 6: There. 98 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:50,840 Speaker 9: With Lis micgill's resignation, the focus will turn to the 99 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:54,680 Speaker 9: presidents of Harvard and MIT, who are also criticized for 100 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 9: their responses before a House committee last week. 101 00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:00,320 Speaker 1: Doug we are hearing Macy's has received a buy out 102 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 1: offer worth five point eight billion dollars. This comes from 103 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:07,280 Speaker 1: two firms, the real estate investment firm Arc House Management 104 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:11,440 Speaker 1: and the global asset manager Brigade Capital Management. Now the 105 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:15,719 Speaker 1: aim here is to take Macy's private. The company currently 106 00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 1: as a market cap of roughly four point seven billion dollars. 107 00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:22,600 Speaker 1: It was last month Macy's reported a decline in same 108 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:25,360 Speaker 1: store sales of seven percent for the third quarter, and 109 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:29,239 Speaker 1: so far this year, macy shares are down sixteen percent. 110 00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:32,560 Speaker 9: Paul Health insure A Signa is said to have walked 111 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:36,240 Speaker 9: away from talks to merge with rival Jomana. The combination 112 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 9: would have created a giant in the industry. We've gone 113 00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:41,040 Speaker 9: more from Bloomberg's Denise Pellegrini. 114 00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:43,680 Speaker 11: A source tells us Signa is abandoning the discussions to 115 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 11: combine in a cash and stock deal, and Signa is 116 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 11: committing an additional ten billion dollars to its own one 117 00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:53,120 Speaker 11: point three billion dollars stock buyback plan instead. Analysts had 118 00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 11: said a Signa humanic combination would have made sense. Signa 119 00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 11: owns express Scripts, one of the largest managers of pharmacy benefits, 120 00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:02,680 Speaker 11: where Humana is a smaller player and Humano plans to 121 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:06,360 Speaker 11: stop selling employer coverage where SIGNA is strongest, but despite 122 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:10,320 Speaker 11: potential synergies, Bloomberg Intelligence had said antitrust approval of a 123 00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 11: Signa Humana deal would have been tricky. Regulators blocked a 124 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:17,559 Speaker 11: Signa Anthem merger and a Humana Etna deal in recent years. 125 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 11: Denise pelygreny Bloomberg Radio, we. 126 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 1: Go to China next, where the government is raising expectations 127 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 1: for its ambitious goal on GDP for the next year. 128 00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 1: The story from Bloomberg savon men in Hong Kong. 129 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:33,120 Speaker 12: China's Paula Buro pledged to strengthen fiscal support at a 130 00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 12: meeting on Friday. It also introduced a new slogan, use 131 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 12: progress to promote stability. The message supports economists expectations for 132 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:44,640 Speaker 12: a growth goal of around five percent for next year. 133 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:49,720 Speaker 12: The Paula Bureau also declared that monetary policy should be flexible, appropriate, 134 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:53,400 Speaker 12: targeted and effective. One thing to note is the previous 135 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 12: wording forceful was dropped from the statement. Economists say that 136 00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:01,640 Speaker 12: change indicates more caution to war or broad monetary easing 137 00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:05,800 Speaker 12: and a greater focus on targeted tools. In Hong Kong, 138 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:07,760 Speaker 12: I'm Yvon Mann, Bloomberg Radio. 139 00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:12,360 Speaker 9: Meanwhile, China's consumer prices fell at the steepest pace in 140 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:14,800 Speaker 9: three years. Bloomberg's Joan Wong has more. 141 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 13: China CPI fell half a percent last once from a 142 00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:22,000 Speaker 13: year earlier. That's the biggest drop since November twenty twenty. 143 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:24,840 Speaker 13: It's also weaker than a zero point two percent drop 144 00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 13: projected by economists in a Bloomberg survey. Producer costs dropped 145 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 13: even further into negative territory. It fell three percent, compared 146 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:36,200 Speaker 13: to a forecast decline of two point eight percent. China 147 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:38,960 Speaker 13: has struggled with falling prices much as this year. It 148 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:41,760 Speaker 13: has set an annual inflation target of around three percent 149 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 13: this year, which it is nearly certain to miss. Bloomberg 150 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:49,079 Speaker 13: Economics expects the inflationary risks to persist into twenty twenty 151 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:52,400 Speaker 13: four due to a weak domestic demand in Hong Kong. 152 00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:53,839 Speaker 13: Joined Wang Bloomberg Radio. 153 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:55,880 Speaker 1: We talked a moment ago about the fact that we've 154 00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 1: got a FED meeting in the week ahead. Let's preview 155 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 1: the gathering with our own Steve Matthews, Bloomberg's economics reporter 156 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 1: who joins us from Atlanta. Steve, I think we can 157 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:08,880 Speaker 1: agree that that job's data on Friday stronger than forecast. 158 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:12,679 Speaker 1: You combine that with what appears to be a moderation 159 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 1: in consumer expectations for inflation. Where does this leave us 160 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:18,720 Speaker 1: in terms of FED policy? 161 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:24,520 Speaker 6: Well, if you are inclined to do a victory dance, 162 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 6: I mean you could basically, you know, declare victory and 163 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:31,560 Speaker 6: say we're thrilled with how things are going. But you 164 00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 6: won't hear cherr Pal do that on Wednesday. It's pretty 165 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:40,000 Speaker 6: clear that the idea of a soft landing is taking hold. 166 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:42,680 Speaker 6: I mean, the SAID has been on the soft landing 167 00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 6: camp for really since July, and a lot of Wall 168 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 6: Street is as well. You know, as far as this meeting, 169 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:55,120 Speaker 6: it's clear they are going to do nothing in terms 170 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:58,440 Speaker 6: of rights. The big news will be in the dot 171 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:03,320 Speaker 6: plot of the projections for interest rates of the FMC 172 00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:08,319 Speaker 6: and you know, you have Wall Street. You know, the 173 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:13,440 Speaker 6: pricing is for about fifty percent for the first rate 174 00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:16,679 Speaker 6: cut in March, and it will be really interesting to 175 00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:18,720 Speaker 6: see where the FED is. The FED will not be 176 00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:22,839 Speaker 6: there quite yet. I mean, in our survey of economists 177 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 6: that came out today, they're predicting that the dots will 178 00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:31,200 Speaker 6: show two rate touch two quarter point rate cuts this year, 179 00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 6: which would be much stingier than you know, the four 180 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,199 Speaker 6: or five that most of the folks on Wall Street 181 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:37,840 Speaker 6: are looking for. 182 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:40,920 Speaker 9: Yeah, I'm enjoying the imagery of a victory Dancia. But 183 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:44,040 Speaker 9: in terms of right cuts, it's all about perception, isn't 184 00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:48,120 Speaker 9: it that the FED would really want to avoid being 185 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:54,679 Speaker 9: seen to endorse this market perception that easing is coming exactly. 186 00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:58,400 Speaker 6: And you know, there is a good portion of the 187 00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:02,839 Speaker 6: FED that would agree pretty much entirely with what Larry 188 00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:06,360 Speaker 6: Summers was saying. I mean, these are folks that they 189 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:09,800 Speaker 6: grew up in the seventies. You know, they understand the 190 00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:14,960 Speaker 6: seventies experience with inflation. They want to be certain that 191 00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:21,560 Speaker 6: they have you know, killed the inflation dragon before before 192 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:24,840 Speaker 6: they are ready to kind of you know, be done 193 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:29,720 Speaker 6: with it. And so you know, they would prefer to 194 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:33,720 Speaker 6: keep rates higher for longer, wait a while in terms 195 00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:37,760 Speaker 6: of actually cutting rates, And I think the tone of 196 00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:41,280 Speaker 6: power will be really interesting that plus the dot plot 197 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:44,480 Speaker 6: or what people will be focused on. But you know, 198 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 6: I think in his speech December one in at Laana 199 00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:51,920 Speaker 6: at Spelman College, he said it was too soon to 200 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 6: speculate on right cuts, and I think you'll see him 201 00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 6: reiterate that this week. 202 00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:00,360 Speaker 1: You use the term soft landing a moment ago, Steve, 203 00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:02,960 Speaker 1: and I'm looking at the piece that you authored for 204 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:06,840 Speaker 1: Bloomberg News with your colleague Rich Miller. The Fed starts 205 00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:10,000 Speaker 1: to confront the next big question, why to cut rates. 206 00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:13,200 Speaker 1: So if we don't get a soft landing and we 207 00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 1: get a mild recession instead, might that be the catalyst? 208 00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:22,400 Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, that's exactly right. And you know that's the 209 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:25,760 Speaker 6: big difference on Wall Street. Most everybody on Wall Street 210 00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:28,560 Speaker 6: expects right cuts this year, and in fact the Fed 211 00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:33,720 Speaker 6: does too. But if you have some kind of financial shock, 212 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:39,120 Speaker 6: you have a decline and unemployment and employment, a big 213 00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:43,640 Speaker 6: rise in unemployment, that that would be, you know, a 214 00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:50,720 Speaker 6: catalyst for both near term cuts and perhaps sharper cuts. 215 00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:53,440 Speaker 6: And we haven't seen any sign of that yet, but 216 00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:56,560 Speaker 6: you know, that would be a really negative view for 217 00:12:56,600 --> 00:13:01,480 Speaker 6: the economy and a really you know, dangerous view. But 218 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 6: you know, what everyone is hoping for, and most of 219 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 6: the economists in our survey predict is that you'll have 220 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:12,280 Speaker 6: something much more benign, and just the fact that inflation 221 00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:16,000 Speaker 6: is coming down. When inflation comes down. You know, if 222 00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:19,680 Speaker 6: you look at different economic models, like the Taylor Rule, 223 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:25,080 Speaker 6: the John Taylor's creation, the Stanford Professor, they all suggested 224 00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:28,679 Speaker 6: when when inflation comes down, it's appropriate to cut rights. 225 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:32,839 Speaker 6: And that's what Governor Chris Waller said a couple of 226 00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:36,800 Speaker 6: weeks ago. And the market's got very excited about and 227 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:41,200 Speaker 6: that would be, you know, the ideal course inflation's coming down. 228 00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:46,559 Speaker 6: So therefore, based on these various monetary policy benchmarks, it 229 00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:48,280 Speaker 6: would be appropriate to cut rights. 230 00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:50,679 Speaker 9: Yeah, well, to say, we'll be hitting into this meeting 231 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:55,640 Speaker 9: armed with the CPI November numbers and that number of 232 00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 9: those scene accelerating a little upper third of one percent 233 00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 9: on tyber hesitate the words. But is that just going 234 00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:04,640 Speaker 9: to be a transitory blip. 235 00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:10,520 Speaker 6: Yeah, it's truly interesting because I mean the headline number 236 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:14,280 Speaker 6: would be that folks are forecasting is that no, there'd 237 00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 6: be no change at all, essentially zero inflation because of 238 00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:24,240 Speaker 6: declines and energy prices. Core inflation excluding food energy might 239 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:29,840 Speaker 6: tick up a bit, but yeah, the the expectation is 240 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:35,120 Speaker 6: that both declining energy prices that will feed into core 241 00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:39,000 Speaker 6: inflation over some period of time. Housing prices are likely 242 00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 6: poised to decline. If you look at what's happening with 243 00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:46,400 Speaker 6: apartment rents. Plus, if you look what's happening with for example, 244 00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:49,760 Speaker 6: use cars, use car prices, and we get you know, 245 00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:54,920 Speaker 6: various indexes monthly. They are coming down. So that should 246 00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:58,400 Speaker 6: also feed into core inflation over time. So yeah, if 247 00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:01,400 Speaker 6: there is a tick up, the expectation would be that 248 00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:04,920 Speaker 6: that would not necessarily last. But as Powell has said, 249 00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 6: you know, they expect that the course to dis inflation 250 00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:10,760 Speaker 6: will be bumpy. It's not going to happen, you know, 251 00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:12,520 Speaker 6: without some bumps along the way. 252 00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:17,040 Speaker 1: This is Bloomberg day Break Asia, your morning brief on 253 00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:20,280 Speaker 1: the stories making news from Hong Kong to Singapore and 254 00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:23,480 Speaker 1: Wall Street.
