1 00:00:02,400 --> 00:00:03,000 Speaker 1: Good morning. 2 00:00:03,120 --> 00:00:05,880 Speaker 2: I'm Brian Curtiz and I'm Doug Krisner. Here are the 3 00:00:05,920 --> 00:00:07,360 Speaker 2: stories we're following today. 4 00:00:07,840 --> 00:00:11,799 Speaker 1: Moody's Investors' service has signaled that its confidence is wavering 5 00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:15,040 Speaker 1: ahead of a potential US government shutdown. We get more 6 00:00:15,080 --> 00:00:16,560 Speaker 1: from Bloomberg's Kayley Lines. 7 00:00:17,079 --> 00:00:20,239 Speaker 3: They say that a shutdown would underscore the weakness of 8 00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:23,720 Speaker 3: US institutional governance and strength. The statement goes on to 9 00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:27,880 Speaker 3: say it would demonstrate the significant constraint that intensifying political 10 00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:31,480 Speaker 3: polarization continues to put on US fiscal policy making. And 11 00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:33,440 Speaker 3: the reason this might sound so familiar is it was 12 00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:36,800 Speaker 3: just back in August when Finch downgraded the US credit 13 00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:40,200 Speaker 3: rating because of governance issues and political dysfunction. 14 00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:45,120 Speaker 1: Bloomberg's Kayley Lines reporting Moody stopped short of threatening a downgrade, 15 00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:49,280 Speaker 1: but it did use unusually blunt language in expressing concerns 16 00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:53,000 Speaker 1: over the looming shutdown. Moody's latest report, which leaves its 17 00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:56,720 Speaker 1: US rating unchanged, is a sign that debt sustainability and 18 00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:59,560 Speaker 1: the politics surrounding it will continue to be a theme 19 00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:00,960 Speaker 1: through the remainder of the year. 20 00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:04,800 Speaker 2: We heard from the CEO of Goldman Sachs today, David Solomon, 21 00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:07,960 Speaker 2: He was saying it would be unprecedented for the economy 22 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:11,399 Speaker 2: to go through this type of FED tightening without a 23 00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:14,319 Speaker 2: slowdown in growth. Here he is speaking earlier at the 24 00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:17,399 Speaker 2: American Energy Security Summit in Oklahoma City. 25 00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:19,760 Speaker 4: I think it's going to be hard to get the inflation, 26 00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:22,120 Speaker 4: get to get inflation back to the target, and that 27 00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:26,040 Speaker 4: probably means if inflation is sticky, we will see additional 28 00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:29,440 Speaker 4: interest rate increases, and ultimately that probably does lead to 29 00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:31,880 Speaker 4: a little bit more of a slowdown in the economy. 30 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:34,720 Speaker 4: Whether that's a recession or it's just a slow down. 31 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:36,119 Speaker 4: You know, it's hard to say. 32 00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:39,400 Speaker 2: Daddy is David Solomon, the CEO of Goldman Sachs. You'll 33 00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:42,360 Speaker 2: remember last week two FED officials saying at least one 34 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:44,960 Speaker 2: more rate hike is possible as that the FED looks 35 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 2: to get inflation back to that two percent target. And 36 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:52,040 Speaker 2: today the head of the Chicago Fed, Austin Goldsby, was 37 00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 2: saying it's still possible for the US to avoid recession. 38 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:56,559 Speaker 2: Brian Well. 39 00:01:56,600 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 1: Amazon is planning to invest in an AI startup, Anthropic. 40 00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:03,760 Speaker 1: It's the latest move by Amazon to become a major 41 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 1: player in generative artificial intelligence. Here's Bloomberg's alex Web. 42 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:10,760 Speaker 5: Amazon has very much been seen as a laggard in 43 00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 5: this space. You know you, Google obviously got strong AI 44 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 5: chops who bards their front face forward facing like chat model, 45 00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:23,920 Speaker 5: and so this potentially beefs up their capabilities in that space, 46 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 5: which helps them when it comes to the battle for 47 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 5: the cloud. 48 00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:30,480 Speaker 1: Wloomberg's alex Web and Amazon stock traded up one point 49 00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:33,639 Speaker 1: seven percent. Amazon is committing one and a quarter billion 50 00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 1: for the initial investment for a minority position in the startup. 51 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:40,799 Speaker 1: The final investment could reach four billion dollars. As part 52 00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 1: of the deal, Anthropic will move most of its software 53 00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:46,800 Speaker 1: too Amazon Web Services data centers. It will also use 54 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 1: Amazon's chips to train AI models used to power chatbots 55 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:52,399 Speaker 1: and other applications. 56 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 2: Well Ford Motor is halting construction on the battery plant 57 00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:59,240 Speaker 2: in Michigan worth three and a half billion dollars. We 58 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 2: have the story from Bloomberg's Denise Pellgranny. 59 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:05,080 Speaker 6: The plant drew scrutiny from Republican lawmakers for its ties 60 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,919 Speaker 6: to a Chinese battery maker. The plan was to license 61 00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 6: technology from China's contemporary Amperx technology. Some lawmakers accused company 62 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:16,800 Speaker 6: of being affiliated with the Chinese Communist Party, A Ford 63 00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 6: spokesperson now saying the company is pausing work and limiting 64 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 6: spending on construction for now, It's not clear if the 65 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:25,440 Speaker 6: political pressure is the reason for the halt. Ford is 66 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:29,400 Speaker 6: also throttling back on ambitious electric vehicle production plans as 67 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 6: sales growth slows. This plant would have employed twenty five 68 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 6: hundred workers and produced enough batteries to power four hundred 69 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:41,280 Speaker 6: thousand electric vehicles a year. Denise pellgreny Bloomberg Radio Well. 70 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:44,480 Speaker 1: China and the EU have reached a slew of agreements 71 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 1: in areas including macroeconomic policy as well as supply chain cooperation. However, 72 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:55,960 Speaker 1: China's Vice Premier Holy Fun expressed strong concern and dissatisfaction 73 00:03:56,200 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 1: over the EU anti subsidy probe into Chinese electric vavehicles. 74 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 1: The Vice Premier made these comments yesterday after meeting with 75 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 1: the European Union's chief trade negotiator, Valdis Dombrovski's. 76 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 7: We hold that the EU would exercise cause and to 77 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:17,720 Speaker 7: continue to keep his market free, his spanefice European consumers, 78 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:22,719 Speaker 7: benefice Korean lowcal development of Europe and the benefic global 79 00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:24,000 Speaker 7: climate Chrench compensations. 80 00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:29,240 Speaker 1: Chinese Vice Premier Holi phone. Earlier yesterday, Dombrovski's warned to 81 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:32,040 Speaker 1: China that the EU would be more forceful in upholding 82 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:36,000 Speaker 1: fair competition and defending its interests against the country. He 83 00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:39,640 Speaker 1: or rather hub said that China is hoping that the 84 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 1: EU would cancel the export restrictions on high tech goods. 85 00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:46,840 Speaker 1: The EU launched an anti subsidy probe into Chinese evs 86 00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:50,159 Speaker 1: earlier this month, and China's Commerce ministry has criticized the 87 00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:54,240 Speaker 1: investigation as a quote naked act of protectionism. 88 00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 2: The Chinese property developer Evergrand has failed to repay an 89 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 2: onshore bond. We have that story from Bloomberg's Joanne Wong 90 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:02,360 Speaker 2: in Hong Kong. 91 00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 8: Evergrand subsidiary Hangda Real Estate. The fault that on five 92 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:09,440 Speaker 8: hundred and forty seven million dollars in principle plus interest. 93 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 8: The andre bond was due September twenty fifth. In March, 94 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:16,279 Speaker 8: hang Da missed an interest payment on the bond, which 95 00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:19,720 Speaker 8: was issued back in twenty twenty. Hangdas that would actively 96 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:24,120 Speaker 8: negotiate with bondholders to find a solution. Meanwhile, Taisien reported 97 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:27,480 Speaker 8: that two former Evergrand executives had been detained by Chinese 98 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 8: authorities in Hong Kong. I'm Joanne Wang Bloomberg Radio. 99 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 1: I'm Ryan Curtis along with Doug Christner. You know China 100 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:38,719 Speaker 1: Today put this nicely on the Evergrand story. Evergrand rises 101 00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:42,799 Speaker 1: from the graveyard to haunt markets. Halloween still a month away, 102 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:46,359 Speaker 1: but a renewed crisis at Evergrand has started to scare 103 00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:50,160 Speaker 1: investors again. And also, Doug, I wanted to revisit that 104 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 1: EU China story again because although we mentioned this at 105 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 1: the beginning that the Ministry of Commerce put out a 106 00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:00,440 Speaker 1: statement saying that they had a lot of cooperation, the 107 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:05,280 Speaker 1: comments from Holly Phone were pretty sharply critical. And it's 108 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 1: interesting that the latest batch of information we got was 109 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:12,080 Speaker 1: from the Ministry of Commerce putting a positive spin on it, 110 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:15,039 Speaker 1: saying the EU reached a slew of agreements in areas 111 00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:19,160 Speaker 1: of macroeconomic policy coordination and supply chain cooperation. So I 112 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 1: wonder whether or not those comments from Holy Phone were 113 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:24,800 Speaker 1: deemed as kind of harsh and they wanted to kind 114 00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:27,520 Speaker 1: of step in and say, okay, that said we did 115 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:29,560 Speaker 1: have some cooperation, So that's something we can put to 116 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:30,240 Speaker 1: our guests. 117 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:33,680 Speaker 2: Certainly a complicated relationship when you talk about de risking 118 00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:37,320 Speaker 2: versus decoupling. Right, And before you go, Brian, I want 119 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:39,599 Speaker 2: to draw your attention. I don't know whether you saw 120 00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:42,640 Speaker 2: this FED study today warning on some weakness in the 121 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:46,359 Speaker 2: US consumer This study claims all but the richest twenty 122 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:51,160 Speaker 2: percent have run out of excess pandemic savings. And at 123 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:53,880 Speaker 2: the same time today Mike Wilson was warning about some 124 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 2: of the consumer stocks. He is citing a slow down 125 00:06:56,680 --> 00:07:00,400 Speaker 2: in consumer spending. He's also looking at the issue of 126 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:04,719 Speaker 2: student loan repayments, rising delinquencies, where credit cards are concerned, 127 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:07,640 Speaker 2: higher gas prices, and some weak data that we've seen 128 00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:09,000 Speaker 2: in the housing market as well. 129 00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, it is absolutely a concern, and we have noted 130 00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:15,320 Speaker 1: for a while that consumers have been spending a lot 131 00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 1: on their credit cards and with rates this high, and 132 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:20,000 Speaker 1: of course you know if you don't pay off those 133 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:24,480 Speaker 1: credit card bills, the rates are stratospheric. But one of 134 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 1: the quick comment on the Amazon investment, I know that 135 00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 1: you worked on this story a little bit too. One 136 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:30,880 Speaker 1: of the things I think is interesting about it is 137 00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 1: that in the past AWS has focused more on developers 138 00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:38,000 Speaker 1: rather than consumers, so this might mark a change in that. 139 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 1: In trying to bring AI more to the consumer side 140 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:45,360 Speaker 1: of the equations, so something we can also explore later 141 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 1: in the program. Now it's time for Global News. Well, 142 00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:53,720 Speaker 1: let's get the latest on World News now with head 143 00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:56,280 Speaker 1: Baxter in San Francisco. He is in the nine to 144 00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 1: sixty newsroom looking at all the top stories, and I 145 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,440 Speaker 1: imagine right up there near the top would be President 146 00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 1: Biden tomorrow showing up on the picket line. 147 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:07,280 Speaker 9: Yeah, absolutely, Brian, And we'll get there in just a second. 148 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:10,320 Speaker 9: But when lawmakers get back tomorrow, they'll have a very 149 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 9: short window to avert a government shutdown. They now will 150 00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 9: have to work on a continuing resolution. Bloomberg's Kaylee Lion 151 00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:18,640 Speaker 9: says it's the only way to get anything done. 152 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:20,240 Speaker 3: Mechanism of doing so is going to have to be 153 00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:22,800 Speaker 3: a continuing resolution. They simply don't have time to pass 154 00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:26,080 Speaker 3: all twelve appropriation bills they would need to. How long 155 00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:28,680 Speaker 3: that continuing resolution is though, in the House, and whether 156 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 3: it can get adequate support in the Republican Party considering 157 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:34,600 Speaker 3: Speaker McCarthy can only be afford to lose for votes, 158 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:37,080 Speaker 3: is an open question. Granted, the Senate also is working 159 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 3: on its own cr through the mechanism of the FAA 160 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 3: reauthorization bill. That is something Majority Leader Chuck Schumer is 161 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:45,840 Speaker 3: going to try to be working on this week. 162 00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:48,679 Speaker 9: And Bloomberg's Laura Davison says this could last a while. 163 00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:50,960 Speaker 10: Sources really are saying that this is going to be 164 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 10: you know that Republicans are very much dug in on this, 165 00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:56,600 Speaker 10: So we're looking at weeks potentially more. 166 00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:59,280 Speaker 6: The whole idea of going into. 167 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:00,719 Speaker 10: A shutdown that what would our liners will tell you 168 00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:03,520 Speaker 10: they want to extract some sort of concessions from Democrats. 169 00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:05,960 Speaker 10: They want to hold out as long and try to 170 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:07,040 Speaker 10: win things over. 171 00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:10,400 Speaker 9: And lower reports that the side that causes a shutdown 172 00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:13,559 Speaker 9: rarely gets any political gain out of it. And for 173 00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:16,080 Speaker 9: Kevin McCarthy, why would they want to stop paying the 174 00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:19,240 Speaker 9: troops or stop paying the border agents of the Coast Guard. Yeah, 175 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 9: five days in counting. Philippines has removed China's floating barrier 176 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:25,360 Speaker 9: in the South China Sea just hours after condemning it. 177 00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 9: Coastguard says it was at the order of President Ferdinand 178 00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:34,079 Speaker 9: Marcos Junior. And the UAW strike expands. President Biden will 179 00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 9: be in Michigan tomorrow and he White House is stepping 180 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:40,680 Speaker 9: further into the FRAY spokeswoman Carrina Jean Pierre. 181 00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 7: This is the president that's made very very clear that 182 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:46,680 Speaker 7: he believes that corporate profits should lead to record UAW 183 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 7: a record UAW contract. 184 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:50,440 Speaker 9: Sean Pierre says, the President has made it very clear 185 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:55,320 Speaker 9: he believes corporate profits should lead to UAW A record contract. 186 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 9: And Donald Trump goes to Michigan on Wednesday with a 187 00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:01,960 Speaker 9: tentative agreement of the Hollywood Studio strike. The process begins 188 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 9: of getting things back to work, but Stephen wolf Pereira, 189 00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:08,560 Speaker 9: business officer at Three Pound Studio, says it will not 190 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:10,319 Speaker 9: begin immediately. 191 00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:13,760 Speaker 11: Reality is they need to get back to work. So 192 00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:17,040 Speaker 11: we're glad that we have a tenement agreement. It needs 193 00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 11: now to go to the guild members and hopefully on 194 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 11: Tuesday they will vote and ratify this, but it's still 195 00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:24,320 Speaker 11: going to be some time before folks get back to work. 196 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:30,360 Speaker 9: And WGA picket lines are down. The United States President 197 00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:32,760 Speaker 9: Joe Biden has met with leaders from Pacific Islands as 198 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:36,640 Speaker 9: the US tries to compete against Chiant's influence in the region. 199 00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:40,560 Speaker 12: We hear your calls for reassurance that you never, never 200 00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:43,320 Speaker 12: will lose your statehood or membership of the UN as 201 00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 12: a result of a climate crisis. Today, the United States 202 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:51,679 Speaker 12: is making it clear that this is our position as well. 203 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:54,400 Speaker 9: And he directly addressed the issue of rising sea levels, 204 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 9: said the US hears the concerns. Global News powered by 205 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:00,839 Speaker 9: more than twenty seven hundred journal an analyst in over 206 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 9: one hundred and twenty countries. In San Francisco, I'm Ed Baxter, 207 00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:05,280 Speaker 9: and this is Bloomberg. 208 00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:07,920 Speaker 1: This is Bloomberg Daybreak Asia. I'm Brian Curtis, along with 209 00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 1: Vonnie Quinn and our guest is Sylvia Jablonski, co founder, 210 00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 1: CEO and CIO at Defiance ETFs. Sylvia, a point blank question, 211 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:21,840 Speaker 1: here are yields rising because of concerns about inflation or 212 00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:23,160 Speaker 1: confidence in growth? 213 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:25,319 Speaker 6: Hi, Brian, great to talk to you today. 214 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:29,320 Speaker 13: You know, I think that a lot of this is yeah, 215 00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 13: I mean, I think a lot of this is just kind. 216 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:35,280 Speaker 6: Of fears of fears of growth, fears. 217 00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:38,560 Speaker 13: Of inflation, and you know, just a lot of uncertainty there. 218 00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:41,360 Speaker 13: We saw the ten year yield climb eleven basis points 219 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:43,920 Speaker 13: to above four point five four percent, and we haven't 220 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:47,560 Speaker 13: seen that in well over a decade, so, you know, 221 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:51,960 Speaker 13: just just fresh signs of uncertainty and turmoil here and maids. 222 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:54,640 Speaker 6: So Sylvia, give us an idea of what you expect 223 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:55,880 Speaker 6: will happen growth wise. 224 00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 13: So you know, I think what will happen in terms 225 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:02,760 Speaker 13: of growth is very much dependent on the path that 226 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:04,880 Speaker 13: the FED takes. Right, So if we get that one 227 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 13: more rate hike and then we get into next year 228 00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:10,240 Speaker 13: and we have a clear picture of what the Fed 229 00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:12,680 Speaker 13: plans to do now, and that's essentially you know, two 230 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:17,040 Speaker 13: less rate cuts than we're projected before, and we sort 231 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:18,560 Speaker 13: of stick to that, then I think, you know, I 232 00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:21,000 Speaker 13: think we know where we're at, and it feels tangible 233 00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:23,760 Speaker 13: to achieve that soft landing with slower growth. 234 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:26,040 Speaker 6: However, if inflation. 235 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:27,960 Speaker 13: You know, kind of spooks us and goes the other way, 236 00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:30,280 Speaker 13: and you know, price of oil and gas remains high, 237 00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:33,760 Speaker 13: perhaps we have some hotter than expected reads and the 238 00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:36,360 Speaker 13: Fed is sort of forced to do additional rate hikes 239 00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:39,040 Speaker 13: and perhaps you know, no cuts next year. I do 240 00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:41,600 Speaker 13: think that puts us into a situation where we would 241 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:44,600 Speaker 13: be worried about growth. The growth this year has been 242 00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:49,400 Speaker 13: unexpected and you know, far more positive than you know, 243 00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 13: we stopped by the markets. We had that over two 244 00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:55,040 Speaker 13: percent last quarter, two percent the quarter before the consumers 245 00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:57,600 Speaker 13: holding up, spending has held up. You know, corporate earnings 246 00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:00,679 Speaker 13: are sort of great, and that's all in the face 247 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:03,080 Speaker 13: of these headwinds of high inflation and high rates. So 248 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:05,600 Speaker 13: if that sort of gets worse, I do think things 249 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:06,360 Speaker 13: will start to crack. 250 00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:08,920 Speaker 1: And does that, given all your views, does that make 251 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:10,920 Speaker 1: the tenure yield at a little over four and a 252 00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:14,320 Speaker 1: half percent very attractive and in fact, maybe even more 253 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:17,200 Speaker 1: attractive at the longer end rather than in the belly 254 00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:17,679 Speaker 1: of the curve. 255 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:21,440 Speaker 13: Yeah, again, I think, you know, I think, I think 256 00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:25,880 Speaker 13: what really will matter to the market is essentially you know, 257 00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:28,280 Speaker 13: what happens with the Fed and what happens with rates. 258 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:31,600 Speaker 13: I'm not necessarily paying attention. You know, not much changed today, 259 00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:33,720 Speaker 13: so that move in the yield was a little bit 260 00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:36,720 Speaker 13: surprising to me. I don't think that, you know, there 261 00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:39,839 Speaker 13: was any kind of major news that necessarily prompted that. 262 00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:42,880 Speaker 13: So I think, you know, it'll be really interesting just 263 00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:45,800 Speaker 13: to see what the Fed does, what happens with inflation 264 00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:47,959 Speaker 13: into the next couple of months, you know, what happened 265 00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:51,240 Speaker 13: sort of with corporate earnings, and you know, and then 266 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:53,480 Speaker 13: what the bottom line impact will be. 267 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:57,840 Speaker 6: Sure, but if you need to preserve cash or make 268 00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:00,280 Speaker 6: some money now, and then you can't really afford to wait. 269 00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:02,800 Speaker 6: So what would the betting be here? I noticed today 270 00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 6: hedgehons are cutting leverage at fastest pace since the twenty 271 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:07,080 Speaker 6: twenty crash. 272 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:09,160 Speaker 13: Yeah, so it depends on, you know, the sort of 273 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 13: the position that you're in. I suppose, on one hand, 274 00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:15,240 Speaker 13: you know, there are still great ways to generate short 275 00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:18,240 Speaker 13: term yo than income. Right, you have these short term 276 00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:21,480 Speaker 13: treasury products still still at the forty five percent range, 277 00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:23,120 Speaker 13: so you know, sure you could sort of scoop those 278 00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:24,880 Speaker 13: up in the short term and then you know, if 279 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:27,560 Speaker 13: you're a longer term investor, though, I think the recent 280 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:30,360 Speaker 13: pullback of the market essentially rallied right in the end 281 00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:33,560 Speaker 13: of July, and you know, we got to a point 282 00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:34,920 Speaker 13: where there was a lot of kind of fear of 283 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:37,920 Speaker 13: missing out. But then you know, the logic there was like, well, 284 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:40,400 Speaker 13: now valuations are sort of too high. How much higher 285 00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:43,040 Speaker 13: than you know, can we go? What's the good news 286 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:45,400 Speaker 13: on the horizon? And the good news on the horizon 287 00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:47,560 Speaker 13: could be that, you know, the market has pulled back 288 00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:50,440 Speaker 13: in those you know, August and September duldrums. So if 289 00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:52,440 Speaker 13: you're kind of a dollar cost averager. You don't need 290 00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:55,360 Speaker 13: to raise cash in the next three months. These are 291 00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:57,800 Speaker 13: good entry points because you know, sort of regardless of 292 00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:01,640 Speaker 13: what happens in the near term, you know, inflation is 293 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:05,680 Speaker 13: coming down right systematically, maybe not, you know, kind of 294 00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:07,760 Speaker 13: like a perfect straight line in the next couple of months, 295 00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:10,680 Speaker 13: but inflation is coming down. The Fed will come you know, 296 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:13,320 Speaker 13: to a halt here and at some point that bodes 297 00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:16,200 Speaker 13: well for the market, particularly you know, growth stocks, and 298 00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:17,760 Speaker 13: again they've had a great run, but some of them 299 00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:19,920 Speaker 13: are now down you know, ten percent in the last 300 00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:22,920 Speaker 13: couple of months, So there are opportunities there. Short term, sure, 301 00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 13: you can stay in these cash like products that yield 302 00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:27,640 Speaker 13: forty five percent, but longer term, you know, scooping out 303 00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:29,080 Speaker 13: equities tends to win the race. 304 00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:32,360 Speaker 1: If I could direct the conversation around to China and 305 00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 1: Asia more generally, a lot of guests on this program 306 00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:40,800 Speaker 1: do raise politics and policy as one of the reasons 307 00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:44,600 Speaker 1: that they're a little nervous about China. Normally, politics doesn't 308 00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:48,840 Speaker 1: affect stock prices too much in your view, is it 309 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:51,000 Speaker 1: worth looking at China or would you sort of be 310 00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:52,080 Speaker 1: hands off for a while? 311 00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:56,800 Speaker 13: Yeah, I mean, I think, you know, in terms, and 312 00:15:56,840 --> 00:15:58,520 Speaker 13: again it kind of depends on what kind of investory 313 00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:00,280 Speaker 13: you are, right, I think if you're looking out to 314 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:02,520 Speaker 13: the longer term, you know, two, three, four years out, 315 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:05,000 Speaker 13: then there are great opportunities now to scoop up emerging 316 00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 13: market stocks because you know, they just haven't done what 317 00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:11,600 Speaker 13: the market expected them to do. This year. US rates 318 00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:14,760 Speaker 13: remained high, you know, China seeing weakness and growth and 319 00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:17,280 Speaker 13: demand and things like this. But again, I do think 320 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 13: that these things tend to eventually come around. I wouldn't 321 00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 13: expect to see much performance. I probably, you know, wouldn't 322 00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:26,040 Speaker 13: dip in if I had a shorter investment timeframe, say, 323 00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:28,440 Speaker 13: you know, next six to twelve months or so in 324 00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 13: the region. But longer term, you know, I do think 325 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:34,600 Speaker 13: that you're you're looking at something that will be discounted, 326 00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:37,080 Speaker 13: you know, when you look back too or three years 327 00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:39,440 Speaker 13: from now. So a lot of this will depend again 328 00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:42,720 Speaker 13: on stability in the US US dollar price of oil 329 00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:44,440 Speaker 13: and gas, you know, sort of what the FED does, 330 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 13: and you know, just the cross politics between China and 331 00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:50,600 Speaker 13: the US on parts and production manufacturing. I do think 332 00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:54,680 Speaker 13: that matters. Again, second largest economy is a huge consumer 333 00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:57,200 Speaker 13: of US goods and travel and things like this. I mean, 334 00:16:57,440 --> 00:17:00,800 Speaker 13: if things fall to the wayside, I do think that 335 00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:02,920 Speaker 13: that sits on you know, both economies growth. 336 00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:05,120 Speaker 8: Sylvia, you said the EV trade is where the puck 337 00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:08,359 Speaker 8: is going China or out of China. 338 00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:10,920 Speaker 6: Well, I think both there. 339 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:14,080 Speaker 13: You know, again some of the some of this will 340 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:17,480 Speaker 13: impact consumer spending.
