Good morning. I'm Nathan Hager. That 216 00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 3: first cut from the FED might have to wait till 217 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:42,040 Speaker 3: after March. That's what we heard from FED shaw Jerome Powell, 218 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 3: reiterating a message we heard from the January meeting in 219 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:48,800 Speaker 3: his first interview with CBS's Sixty Minutes since twenty twenty one, 220 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:52,040 Speaker 3: when inflation was just starting to surge, but with price 221 00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 3: pressures now on the decline for nearly a year, J 222 00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:57,880 Speaker 3: Powell was asked, why not cut now? 223 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:01,600 Speaker 4: We want to see more evidence that inflation is moving 224 00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:05,080 Speaker 4: sustainably down to two percent. We have some confidence in that, 225 00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 4: our confidence is rising. We just want some more confidence 226 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 4: before we take that very important step step of beginning 227 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:12,680 Speaker 4: to cut interest rates. 228 00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:15,520 Speaker 3: And again that was FED share Jpowen interview airing last 229 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:18,560 Speaker 3: night on CBS's sixty Minutes for More. We're joined by 230 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:22,600 Speaker 3: Lori Calvacina, the head of US equity strategy at RBC 231 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:26,200 Speaker 3: Capital Markets. Thisays a message that we've heard before from 232 00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 3: this chairman and from policymakers across the FED. Lorie, is 233 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:34,760 Speaker 3: there a read through to stocks from what we're getting 234 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:36,000 Speaker 3: from this Federal Reserve? 235 00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 13: So I think that you know, in terms of the 236 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:42,720 Speaker 13: pushback on the March expectations. Over at RBC, we've been 237 00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:45,320 Speaker 13: a little bit confused why those March expectations were there 238 00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 13: to begin with. Our team's call has always been for 239 00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:51,679 Speaker 13: a June start of the cutting cycle. I do think though, 240 00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 13: you have to pay attention to what was priced into 241 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:55,720 Speaker 13: the market, and we are sitting at a point where 242 00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 13: there was a lot of excitement about rate cuts in 243 00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:00,559 Speaker 13: twenty twenty four that was baked into the stock market 244 00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 13: in that monster fourth quarter rally. We've seen we've got 245 00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:06,880 Speaker 13: sentiment indicators that are sitting around a sort of dangerous 246 00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 13: levels right now or worry some levels at least in 247 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:12,600 Speaker 13: the short term. And so it wouldn't you know, surprise 248 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:14,080 Speaker 13: me if this does have a little bit of a 249 00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:15,959 Speaker 13: negative impact in the short term, but I would say 250 00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:19,360 Speaker 13: overall doesn't really do anything to derail our constructive view 251 00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 13: on the year. 252 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:23,240 Speaker 3: You pushed yourself back a bit by saying that sentiments 253 00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:27,080 Speaker 3: at dangerous levels. What's Scott you concerned about? Where sentiment 254 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 3: is right now? 255 00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:29,840 Speaker 13: So the one you know where I would maybe apply 256 00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:32,320 Speaker 13: the more sort of dangerous term would be looking at 257 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:35,199 Speaker 13: the weekly CFTC data, which frankly, if you look at 258 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:38,280 Speaker 13: Byside positioning in US equity futures and you combine all 259 00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:42,120 Speaker 13: the contracts together, we're actually sitting above levels that we 260 00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:45,199 Speaker 13: saw back in early twenty eighteen and twenty twenty, as 261 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,360 Speaker 13: well as you know, well above the highest frankly of 262 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:50,240 Speaker 13: twenty twenty one. In twenty twenty two. So you see 263 00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:53,200 Speaker 13: major indications of frost there when you look at the 264 00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:55,960 Speaker 13: AAII survey, which is an indicator I like a little 265 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:57,960 Speaker 13: bit better. We have more history on that, we can 266 00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:01,400 Speaker 13: do more back testing. That one's hovering around one standard 267 00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:04,640 Speaker 13: deviation above the long term average in terms of net bullishness, 268 00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:08,079 Speaker 13: got their early December, was sitting there early January. It's 269 00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:10,680 Speaker 13: pulled back just a little bit, so it's right below 270 00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:13,560 Speaker 13: that one standard deviation mark right now. That one is 271 00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:15,680 Speaker 13: telling you to be looking out for a short term 272 00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:17,640 Speaker 13: pullback in the equity market, but more like a six 273 00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 13: and a half percent gain on the year, so not 274 00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:22,960 Speaker 13: quite as worrisome as that institutional data set from CSPC. 275 00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:26,960 Speaker 3: How big a pullback could we see though, given what 276 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:29,320 Speaker 3: you're seeing in those indicators, so. 277 00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:30,920 Speaker 13: You now we haven't put a number on it. I 278 00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:33,920 Speaker 13: would say that anytime you start thinking about pullbacks in 279 00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:36,640 Speaker 13: the US equity market, you know, kind of a garden variety, 280 00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:39,720 Speaker 13: something that's typical and nothing to get too concerned about, 281 00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 13: would be anywhere from say five percent to ten percent, 282 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:44,520 Speaker 13: and that's you know, really kind of looking at an outlier. 283 00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 13: If you get anything beyond ten percent, you're really kind 284 00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:49,640 Speaker 13: of getting into growth scare territory, and we actually think 285 00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:51,719 Speaker 13: the economy is still on pretty solid flitting, So I 286 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:53,720 Speaker 13: wouldn't be looking for anything nefarious like that. 287 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:57,360 Speaker 3: What are you hearing from companies as they report earnings 288 00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:01,120 Speaker 3: about their outlook for the economy. We've seen so many 289 00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:03,720 Speaker 3: strong indicators of how this economy has been able to 290 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:07,080 Speaker 3: perform up to now what's the outlook that you're hearing? 291 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:09,599 Speaker 13: So I would say, you know, we read through a 292 00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:11,520 Speaker 13: lot of transcripts and the thing we've written the last 293 00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:13,400 Speaker 13: couple of weeks in our weekly is just that the 294 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:16,760 Speaker 13: commentary on the outlook and the macro backdrop is just 295 00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:19,200 Speaker 13: very varied at this point in time. So on the 296 00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:21,480 Speaker 13: one hand, you have a lot of companies who are 297 00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:25,000 Speaker 13: talking about stabilization, who are talking about resilience, about consumers 298 00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:28,520 Speaker 13: moving things around and being judicious, but not really showing 299 00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:31,840 Speaker 13: any you know, significant signs of weakness. On the other hand, 300 00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:34,520 Speaker 13: you do have some companies and we actually had one 301 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:37,920 Speaker 13: company last week use the word dismal, you know, but 302 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:41,360 Speaker 13: really highlighting the uncertainty of the geopolitical risks, of the 303 00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:44,760 Speaker 13: longer lead times in terms of getting deal sealed. So 304 00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:47,640 Speaker 13: it really is is varied, to be honest, and you 305 00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:49,040 Speaker 13: even see that within industries. 306 00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 3: All right, So in our last minute, Laurie, we're getting 307 00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:54,320 Speaker 3: into the heart of earning season here, another very busy 308 00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:58,000 Speaker 3: week when it comes to reporting season. What's your expectation 309 00:14:58,160 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 3: based on what we've heard so far? 310 00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:03,040 Speaker 13: So I think that we're getting more sector color. We're 311 00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 13: going to have a better sense of the sector of 312 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:07,960 Speaker 13: winners and losers in another week or so. But really, 313 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:11,800 Speaker 13: the reactions to the earning speeds in aggregate haven't been 314 00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:15,600 Speaker 13: you know, that's that significant. To be honest, We're seeing 315 00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:18,280 Speaker 13: more muted reactions than what we typically see. So I 316 00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 13: think investors are looking for color on cost margins and 317 00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:23,240 Speaker 13: that sort of thing. But I think, to be honest, 318 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:25,080 Speaker 13: this is just a reporting season we've got to work 319 00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:27,280 Speaker 13: through where we adjust numbers down a little bit, get 320 00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:29,960 Speaker 13: some slightly more realistic expectations in, and then we can 321 00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:30,240 Speaker 13: move on. 322 00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:31,720 Speaker 2: Wow. 323 00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:35,360 Speaker 1: This is Bloomberg day Break today, your morning brief on 324 00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:38,960 Speaker 1: the stories making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. 325 00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:42,000 Speaker 2: Look for us on your podcast feed at six am 326 00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:45,760 Speaker 2: Eastern each morning, on Apple, Spotify and anywhere else you 327 00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:46,920 Speaker 2: get your podcasts. 328 00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:49,800 Speaker 1: You can also listen live each morning starting at five 329 00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 1: am Wall Street Time, on Bloomberg eleven three to zero 330 00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:55,320 Speaker 1: in New York, Bloomberg ninety nine to one in Washington, 331 00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:58,320 Speaker 1: Bloomberg one oh six to one in Boston, and Bloomberg 332 00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 1: ninety sixty in San Francisco. 333 00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:03,640 Speaker 2: Our flagship New York station is also available on your 334 00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:09,120 Speaker 2: Amazon Alexa devices.
