The Orioles tied the game 189 00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:30,599 Speaker 10: and the ninth and tenth innings and then beat the 190 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:33,680 Speaker 10: Rays five to four and eleven. They leaked Tampa by two. 191 00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 10: In the Al East, both teams of Clint's playoff bers. 192 00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 10: Nashvill's won and eleven innings in Milwaukee. Red sox fourth 193 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 10: straight loss was three two at Toronto, the Giants won 194 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:46,240 Speaker 10: a wild win a Colorado eleven to ten. Alabama had 195 00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:49,680 Speaker 10: a narrow win Saturday at South four after losing to Texas, 196 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:52,240 Speaker 10: and the Crimson Tide now out of the top ten 197 00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:54,880 Speaker 10: in the rankings for the first time since twenty fifteen. 198 00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:56,680 Speaker 10: They had been in the top ten one hundred and 199 00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:57,559 Speaker 10: twenty eight. 200 00:09:57,440 --> 00:09:58,280 Speaker 1: Poles in a row. 201 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:00,040 Speaker 10: John Stanshawerd Bloomberg's four. 202 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:05,360 Speaker 7: From Coast to Coast from New York to San. 203 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:07,959 Speaker 2: Francisco, Boston to Washington, DC. 204 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:12,040 Speaker 7: Nationwide on Syrias Exam, the Bloomberg Business app and Bloomberg 205 00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:14,960 Speaker 7: dot Com. This is Bloomberg Daybreak. 206 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:18,400 Speaker 3: Good morning, I'm Nathan Hager. We are getting set for 207 00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 3: a trading week that will be dominated by central bank decisions, 208 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:24,840 Speaker 3: not the least of which is the Federal Reserve coming 209 00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,800 Speaker 3: out with its latest policy decision on Wednesday, before the 210 00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:30,360 Speaker 3: Bank of England and Bank of Japan follow What is 211 00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:33,079 Speaker 3: the trajectory for the market before the Fed gives investors 212 00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:36,360 Speaker 3: its latest signal on the path for interest rates. For more, 213 00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:39,760 Speaker 3: we're joined by Lori Calvacina, head of US Equity Strategy 214 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:42,839 Speaker 3: at RBC Capital Markets. Laurie, great to speak with you, 215 00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 3: as always. What is going to drive the market reaction 216 00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 3: when we finally do hear from Jpollin Company on Wednesday? 217 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 11: Well, well, thanks for having me as always, and obviously 218 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:55,120 Speaker 11: the central banks are the big story of the week, 219 00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 11: you know. Unfortunately, our race strategy team thinks that this 220 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:01,680 Speaker 11: is going to probably be another fairly boring said meeting. 221 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:04,560 Speaker 11: They see basically no risk that we're going to get 222 00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:07,680 Speaker 11: a hike coming up. They don't expect anything particularly interesting 223 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:09,960 Speaker 11: coming out of the commentary. They think the FED really 224 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:12,680 Speaker 11: likes how the data has been progressing. You know, I 225 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 11: think they have talked a little bit about how there 226 00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:18,440 Speaker 11: might be some focus on the twenty twenty four PC 227 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:21,559 Speaker 11: numbers coming up, and that's something you know that markets 228 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:23,880 Speaker 11: on the equity side could definitely be paying attention to 229 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:27,559 Speaker 11: and digest. But in general, you know, we expect things 230 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:29,400 Speaker 11: to sort of soldier on after this meeting. 231 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:32,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's interesting how the market has managed to soldier 232 00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:37,319 Speaker 3: on despite the elevated interest rates, the dramatic rise in 233 00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:41,000 Speaker 3: interest rates we've seen for more than a year now. 234 00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:46,119 Speaker 3: How do you explain the rally that we've seen despite 235 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:47,800 Speaker 3: elevated interest rates. 236 00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:50,959 Speaker 11: Well, I think the simplest explanation, and I'll be honest 237 00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:52,720 Speaker 11: with you, this has been coming up a lot in 238 00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:56,040 Speaker 11: our conversations with client space in the US since June. 239 00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:58,920 Speaker 11: I'm not sure quite why that it really started then, 240 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:02,440 Speaker 11: but in general, we think that companies in particular as 241 00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:05,200 Speaker 11: well as consumers have really continued to benefit from the 242 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:07,880 Speaker 11: era of low interest rates this year. And what I 243 00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 11: mean by that is, if you look at the mortgage 244 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 11: rate or the effective interest rate, on mortgage debt outstanding, 245 00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:15,400 Speaker 11: so you know, not just where people are getting their 246 00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:17,679 Speaker 11: rates today, but what they've got locked in based on 247 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:20,080 Speaker 11: all the activity of the last few years. It ended 248 00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:22,520 Speaker 11: two Q about three point six percent. That's really a 249 00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 11: mind boggling statistic. Think about it from a public company perspective. 250 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:30,240 Speaker 11: I've actually crunched the data three different ways for the 251 00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 11: S and P five hundred to make sure I was 252 00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,920 Speaker 11: getting the right numbers. The lowest number I came up 253 00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:37,280 Speaker 11: with for two Q was one point seven percent and 254 00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 11: the highest I came up with was three point one percent, 255 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:41,640 Speaker 11: which is looking at a median of the S and P. 256 00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:45,000 Speaker 11: And we think that's really happened because companies, you know, 257 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,400 Speaker 11: they sort of listened to investors in recent years and 258 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:50,280 Speaker 11: went out and locked in long term debt at low 259 00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 11: rates and really you know, took down their variable rate 260 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:56,160 Speaker 11: dead and short term debt. So the plunchline here is 261 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:58,440 Speaker 11: they just really haven't felt the dight of these interest 262 00:12:58,520 --> 00:12:58,959 Speaker 11: rates yet. 263 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,360 Speaker 3: That raises the question of whether we're going to start 264 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:04,960 Speaker 3: to feel that bite in twenty twenty four. What's your 265 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 3: view on that? 266 00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:08,880 Speaker 11: So you are starting to see both of those statistics 267 00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:11,800 Speaker 11: I mentioned creep up. I will tell you I wasn't 268 00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:14,480 Speaker 11: actually at our industrial conference last week, but the reports 269 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 11: from the field that I heard were that one of 270 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:20,240 Speaker 11: the big topics was deleveraging. It seemed to come up 271 00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 11: in just about every conference company recap that I read 272 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:26,360 Speaker 11: from the team that was on the ground there, And 273 00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:28,800 Speaker 11: we actually took a look at the statistics around de 274 00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:31,560 Speaker 11: leveraging and how often companies are mentioning this across not 275 00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:33,800 Speaker 11: just the S and P or the industrials, but across 276 00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:35,520 Speaker 11: the whole Russell three thousand and we found it's been 277 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:38,719 Speaker 11: quite elevated over the last few years. So I think 278 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:41,000 Speaker 11: one of the ways that companies are preparing, you know, 279 00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:43,640 Speaker 11: for potentially the need to free sentance at higher levels 280 00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 11: is simply to pay down debt. We know that most 281 00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:49,880 Speaker 11: S and P companies have average weighted maturities of five 282 00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 11: years or more. There is a decent amount, you think 283 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:54,520 Speaker 11: about twenty five percent have average weighted maturities in the 284 00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:57,120 Speaker 11: next two to five years. So if the FED does 285 00:13:57,200 --> 00:14:00,400 Speaker 11: start cutting next year as anticipated, even the debt that 286 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:02,600 Speaker 11: does need refinancing is going to get a little bit 287 00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:05,280 Speaker 11: of relief. So I do think this is you know, 288 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:08,960 Speaker 11: kind of a headwind for companies in future years. It's 289 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:12,000 Speaker 11: something that seems like it's been very well managed so far. 290 00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:15,600 Speaker 11: I think companies have enough runway they can manage around it. 291 00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:17,680 Speaker 11: That doesn't mean that we're not going to see some impacts, 292 00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 11: but it feels like a headwind as we're ascending a 293 00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 11: mountain as opposed to a cliff that we're about to 294 00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:22,520 Speaker 11: fall off of. 295 00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:25,640 Speaker 3: One thing that we have started to see more of 296 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:29,920 Speaker 3: in recent weeks is inflows into US stocks. As we 297 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 3: think about where this market could go for the rest 298 00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:38,720 Speaker 3: of this year, in our last minute, what impact could 299 00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:42,720 Speaker 3: that have on valuations for the stock market. Is there 300 00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:45,480 Speaker 3: a risk that the US market starts to get overbought 301 00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:46,800 Speaker 3: with these inflows coming in. 302 00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:50,720 Speaker 11: So we've started to see sentiment deteriorate. Whether you're looking 303 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:52,920 Speaker 11: at the CFTC data, it's come in just a little 304 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:55,840 Speaker 11: bit or the AAII data has come in quite a 305 00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:58,200 Speaker 11: bit since hitting our peak over the summer. But the 306 00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:00,400 Speaker 11: enflows are starting to come back, and there's starting to 307 00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:02,080 Speaker 11: come back to the growth part of the market in 308 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:04,320 Speaker 11: a big way. A lot of this is passive driven 309 00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:06,960 Speaker 11: based on the analysis that we've put together, so it 310 00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:09,200 Speaker 11: does generate from upside risk heading into the end of 311 00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 11: the year. 312 00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 1: This is Bloomberg day Break Today, your morning brief on 313 00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:18,600 Speaker 1: the stories making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. 314 00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:21,560 Speaker 2: Look for us on your podcast feed at six am 315 00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:25,280 Speaker 2: Eastern each morning, on Apple, Spotify, and anywhere else you 316 00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:26,520 Speaker 2: get your podcasts. 317 00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:29,360 Speaker 1: You can also listen live each morning starting at five 318 00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:32,040 Speaker 1: am Wall Street Time on Bloomberg eleven three to zero 319 00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:34,920 Speaker 1: in New York, Bloomberg ninety nine to one in Washington, 320 00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:37,880 Speaker 1: Bloomberg one oh six to one in Boston, and Bloomberg 321 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:39,640 Speaker 1: ninety sixty in San Francisco. 322 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:43,160 Speaker 2: Our flagship New York station is also available on your 323 00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:48,280 Speaker 2: Amazon Alexa devices.
