Joint 6 00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:31,760 Speaker 1: to us down this bond market, Mike Shoemaker, club head 7 00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:34,320 Speaker 1: of Mac Price Strategy at waust Fargo, might before we 8 00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:36,760 Speaker 1: talk about levels, can we just talk about ranges in today, 9 00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:39,760 Speaker 1: trading ranges on a two year of say twenty basis 10 00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:42,800 Speaker 1: points on any given day without economic data. Mike, what 11 00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:45,320 Speaker 1: do you make of that? It's just incredible, John, the 12 00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:48,400 Speaker 1: day to day of all atilities from mind boggling. Traders 13 00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:50,120 Speaker 1: here are whip lashed, and I think that's true of 14 00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:52,520 Speaker 1: people across the markets. There have been so many cross 15 00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:55,280 Speaker 1: currents it can't sustain in terms of alatility like this, 16 00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:58,120 Speaker 1: but there really has been wild to see and hopefully 17 00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:00,560 Speaker 1: slows down at least a little bit fairly. Since is 18 00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:03,960 Speaker 1: it linear or do you see a convexity where things 19 00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:06,480 Speaker 1: are speeding up like in the tenure real yield. Is 20 00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:08,760 Speaker 1: there a quickening there that you could predict for Q 21 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:11,880 Speaker 1: four a good point time non linear? I would say 22 00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,360 Speaker 1: you think about the tenure real yield in July was 23 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:17,320 Speaker 1: ballpark positive ten basis points. That rose a hundred and 24 00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:19,679 Speaker 1: fifty basis points and just a bit more than two months. 25 00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:22,240 Speaker 1: So now it seems to us it's up to an 26 00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:24,720 Speaker 1: area that I would call the right zip code. One 27 00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:28,080 Speaker 1: six two percent seems reasonable, certainly in the context of 28 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:31,319 Speaker 1: prior FED cycles and layering on additional inflation this time 29 00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:34,200 Speaker 1: with respect to the US German reels crossed over to 30 00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:38,360 Speaker 1: positive territory intends to that seems okay. So I suspect 31 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:40,679 Speaker 1: the speed is about done. It's going to slow down 32 00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:43,640 Speaker 1: a fair bit, but volatility remains super high intense as well. 33 00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:46,080 Speaker 1: Let's talk about the step down, Mike. We talked about 34 00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 1: the pivot and then the pause as John was mentioning, 35 00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:51,280 Speaker 1: and now the step down, which is actually new. I 36 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:53,840 Speaker 1: hadn't really hurt that until this morning. We already discussed it, 37 00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 1: already discussed it, right, Okay, Now all of a sudden, 38 00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:58,440 Speaker 1: it's back. It's back. It's a thing, right, How does 39 00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:01,280 Speaker 1: the FED communicate that it's going to slow down without 40 00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 1: allowing the markets to move ahead of it. And some 41 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:05,920 Speaker 1: people argue the reason why there's optimism and markets is 42 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 1: because they're getting a sniff of the step down. Do 43 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 1: you buy any of this just a sniff? I think 44 00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 1: that's probably right. It seems sort of obvious the Fed 45 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:16,960 Speaker 1: eventually would slow down, and yet the markets are all 46 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:19,639 Speaker 1: excited about this, and you put it in contacts and say, 47 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:21,880 Speaker 1: all right, so let's say the FED goes seventy five 48 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:23,840 Speaker 1: next week and follows that up with a fifty at 49 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:26,680 Speaker 1: the next meeting. Is that really an amazing result for 50 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:30,320 Speaker 1: risk investors? I would say not, And ultimately the destination 51 00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 1: matters in terms of terminal rate. But I think then 52 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:35,200 Speaker 1: the thing people really need to focus on the most 53 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 1: is how long does the FED keep that that funds 54 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:41,000 Speaker 1: rate really high? So let's say up to five. We 55 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:43,440 Speaker 1: think it's going to be a long time, six plus months, 56 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:46,520 Speaker 1: maybe a year. That's gonna hurt equities, we think, and 57 00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:48,480 Speaker 1: that's going to hurt risk. So that seems to be 58 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:50,600 Speaker 1: a little bit lost in the shuffle. People are too 59 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:52,800 Speaker 1: gung home on trying to predict the next couple of meetings, 60 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:55,800 Speaker 1: not thinking enough about the destination. Mike, what you just 61 00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 1: said is pretty pretty interesting. But you could see five 62 00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:02,360 Speaker 1: percent FED funds rates for a year, possibly more, six 63 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 1: months a year or even more. What does that do 64 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 1: to the entire credit cycle that's predicated. I'm pushing out maturities, yes, 65 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:11,959 Speaker 1: but those maturities start coming up at the end of 66 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 1: next year. Yeah, it means it's notion that you might 67 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:17,320 Speaker 1: have easy money come back fairly soon just doesn't really work, 68 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 1: and credits probably take a hit with respect to defaults 69 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,400 Speaker 1: ramping up also. So it's not a positive in terms 70 00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:25,919 Speaker 1: of credit, not a positive genuine in terms of risk. 71 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 1: But when you think about the incentives facing the Fed, 72 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 1: especially j Powell, his number one priority is and will 73 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:36,040 Speaker 1: remain getting inflation back into a box. I means boosting 74 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,040 Speaker 1: the funds requite a bit, we know that, but also 75 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 1: keeping it up there for a while. I just want 76 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 1: to pick up on this move in a guilt market 77 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 1: as well, at the front end guilt two years down 78 00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:47,360 Speaker 1: five basis points, Mike, if you even got a cold 79 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 1: on the guilt market, if you thrown the town in, yeah, 80 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 1: guilt market, John, I think we'll take a pass on 81 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 1: that one for now, and plays out with the whole 82 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 1: PM sweepstakes, and then we'll something about discretion and val 83 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 1: are coming together. I think out at my shame, thank 84 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 1: you oft Fanca Brandon. Laura Raim joins US chiefs Economist Investments. Laura, 85 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 1: I go to the c o GO and there is 86 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 1: a raft, a Seattle slew of economic data coming out 87 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:19,719 Speaker 1: this week, and I look at it and it mostly 88 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 1: shows a resilient economy looking back. Are you surprised where 89 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:29,760 Speaker 1: we are right now? We're thirty forty fifty lines of 90 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:34,320 Speaker 1: the c O GO data. Not all that bad, No, 91 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:39,240 Speaker 1: because our economy has so much positive momentum, and this 92 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 1: is what happens when you're just early in an expansion. 93 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:44,280 Speaker 1: I think that that's maybe the big question. Are we 94 00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:48,160 Speaker 1: early in interpion an expansion? We're pretty early in an expansion, 95 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:51,479 Speaker 1: and we had so much fiscal stimulus, so much monetary 96 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,440 Speaker 1: stimulus around right. It's we're a big ship. Tom. It 97 00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:56,359 Speaker 1: takes time to turn in. And you've been a student 98 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:58,919 Speaker 1: of this for decades, going back way before you you know, 99 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:01,360 Speaker 1: you showed up on Well Street. And my answer is, 100 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 1: so we get a five percent ten year yield for 101 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:07,920 Speaker 1: whatever reason is at the end of the world as 102 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 1: we know it. We used to live that way, right. 103 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:12,840 Speaker 1: It's not the end of the world as we know it. 104 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 1: It's just a continuation of what we've seen. I mean, 105 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 1: the volatility and the treasury market is so extreme. We 106 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:22,159 Speaker 1: could be there in the next ten days. Um. I 107 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:24,919 Speaker 1: think at the end of the day, what the what 108 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:28,040 Speaker 1: we're now looking at, you know, is the FED moves 109 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 1: later this year, the Fed moves beginning next year. Markets 110 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:35,599 Speaker 1: are so tripping over themselves to try to look around 111 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:40,039 Speaker 1: the corner, and it's causing these wild swings and expectations 112 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:43,200 Speaker 1: and we're just stuck in this higher volatility world that is, 113 00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:47,640 Speaker 1: with the economic uncertainty. It's crushing all these traditional asset classes. Laura, 114 00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 1: you mentioned that it takes a long time to turn 115 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:52,479 Speaker 1: around this economy, and this is the concern of some people, 116 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:55,960 Speaker 1: the lag effects of the policies that are being implemented today. 117 00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 1: Do you have a sense of the difference between when 118 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:03,719 Speaker 1: the interest rate rises will affect the inflation side of 119 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:06,880 Speaker 1: things and when it will affect the economic momentum side 120 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:10,640 Speaker 1: of things. You know, this is to me one of 121 00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:13,640 Speaker 1: the critical questions when I get asked, it's what should 122 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 1: the Fed what do I think the FED should do 123 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:19,279 Speaker 1: versus what are they actually doing? And I think the 124 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:23,279 Speaker 1: time has come for them to take a slower pace 125 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 1: of rate hikes and wait and see what kind of 126 00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 1: shape the economy is in. But the reality is, with 127 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:32,360 Speaker 1: housing and other interest rate sensitive sectors fueling so much 128 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,440 Speaker 1: growth over the last year and a half, they have 129 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 1: really heavily impacted that. The question on the inflation side 130 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:42,520 Speaker 1: is how much of this is really still driven by supply? 131 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 1: And I'm not talking about supply chain disruptions, those have ebbed. 132 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,599 Speaker 1: What I'm talking about is labor supply. At this point, 133 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:55,720 Speaker 1: higher services costs, higher services inflation is really driven by 134 00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 1: higher wages. My concern is that the FED is using 135 00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:03,000 Speaker 1: model They love their Phillips curve models, and they're using 136 00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 1: these models built in the nineties when labor dynamics were 137 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 1: completely different. So what does that mean in terms of 138 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:11,240 Speaker 1: what NEHRU is, What does that mean in terms of 139 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:14,360 Speaker 1: what they should be doing or should be looking for 140 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:16,920 Speaker 1: in terms of employment and what that will mean for 141 00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 1: when wages will start to moderate. It means that they 142 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:24,440 Speaker 1: may have to raise a lot more to get businesses 143 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:28,640 Speaker 1: to let go of workers. It means that the risk 144 00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 1: of a policy overshoot is higher. Their estimate of NEHRU 145 00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:36,160 Speaker 1: has always been a moving target, but today it may 146 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:40,200 Speaker 1: be lower given that people can work remotely, geographies are 147 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:44,480 Speaker 1: more fluid, and the fact that we're just have this 148 00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:48,120 Speaker 1: more constraint participation rate. Lord. Chapter twenty three of any 149 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 1: Good econ one oh one book is about the markets. 150 00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:54,120 Speaker 1: Do you suggest that this Central Bank of FED is 151 00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:56,600 Speaker 1: looking at the markets? When I look at bonds, I 152 00:07:56,880 --> 00:07:59,760 Speaker 1: took a US bond e t F. It's down twenty 153 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:03,080 Speaker 1: two percent from its high two years ago, and that's 154 00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 1: better than a lot of others. To be blunt, I'm 155 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:09,600 Speaker 1: just fascinated if this FED, you know, the phrases blink, 156 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:12,560 Speaker 1: not that they'll blink, but they become aware that a 157 00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 1: four oh one case become a two oh one. K 158 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:19,400 Speaker 1: I think that the FED is highly aware of what 159 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:22,160 Speaker 1: they've done to financial markets, and in fact, they've mentioned 160 00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 1: that over and over again. This is another key concern, 161 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:32,400 Speaker 1: which is that recently Vice chair Brainerd commented on corporate margins, 162 00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:37,040 Speaker 1: which actually remain relatively healthy, and if they FED is 163 00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:39,559 Speaker 1: looking to slow the economy down and looking to spread 164 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 1: some of the pain of that slowing to the labor market. 165 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 1: I think increasingly they're looking to to spread some of 166 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:50,559 Speaker 1: that pain to corporate margins. It's not a good supportive 167 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:54,200 Speaker 1: outlook for equities into the beginning of next year. So 168 00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:56,560 Speaker 1: I think the other question I get asked so often is, 169 00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:59,800 Speaker 1: you know, have the markets seen their bottom? We're all 170 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:02,720 Speaker 1: talking about the risk of recession, but markets still to 171 00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:06,600 Speaker 1: me don't have it priced in well. And look at 172 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 1: the priced in part. What do we do after the 173 00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 1: November two meeting? I mean, I want to get onto December, 174 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:15,800 Speaker 1: and frankly onto the meeting I believe it's February one 175 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 1: of next year. At some point they have to respond 176 00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:22,960 Speaker 1: to the markets. Yeah, I think they would say they're 177 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:25,959 Speaker 1: not responding to markets. They would heavily argue that they're 178 00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:29,800 Speaker 1: responding to the structural lags and their policy going to 179 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:33,120 Speaker 1: the economy. But Tomato, Tomato, I hear you. I think 180 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:36,080 Speaker 1: the point really is that they're going to have to 181 00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:40,120 Speaker 1: They're gonna have a big challenge messaging that right, because 182 00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 1: every time they talk about holding or talk about backing 183 00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:47,560 Speaker 1: off their aggressive pace, markets start pricing in rape cuts. 184 00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:50,280 Speaker 1: And you know, earlier you were talking about how kind 185 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:53,320 Speaker 1: of the fedest trained markets over the last fifteen years 186 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 1: to expect a rally at any time, and I think 187 00:09:57,320 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 1: this is what they're having to really beat markets up 188 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:03,720 Speaker 1: about right now. They're having to couldn't place a permanently 189 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:07,880 Speaker 1: higher trajectory, or at least, you know, a multi year 190 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:11,680 Speaker 1: higher trajectory, because inflation is not going to fit neatly 191 00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:14,840 Speaker 1: back into their two percent package. Yeah, may come down 192 00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:17,959 Speaker 1: from here, but it's gonna stay really elevated. This is 193 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:19,880 Speaker 1: the fine line the feed is having to walk, and 194 00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:24,600 Speaker 1: it's causing them confusion when they're communicating, it's causing it's 195 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:27,840 Speaker 1: adding to bond market volatility, and all of this is 196 00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:30,800 Speaker 1: just weighing on sentiment. We were speaking of the Bloomberg's 197 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:33,080 Speaker 1: Damien says how or earlier, and he was talking about 198 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 1: how all of this is leading to the strong dollar 199 00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 1: that's really torpedoing a lot of emerging economies. Do you 200 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 1: think that it's important for the FETE to step in 201 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:42,720 Speaker 1: on the dollar side of things to offset some of 202 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 1: that pain as they combat inflation. I don't know how 203 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:50,160 Speaker 1: they can, Lisa. I think that you know, for now, 204 00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:54,440 Speaker 1: the stronger dollar reinforces the monetary policy trajectory that the 205 00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:57,200 Speaker 1: FET is taking. And I think there's this other issue. 206 00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 1: The FED knows that unilateral intervention isn't particularly effective. You know, 207 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:05,680 Speaker 1: this is a big this If they wanted to weaken 208 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:08,080 Speaker 1: a dollar at all, it would be a huge change 209 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:13,120 Speaker 1: from these sort of unspoken stronger dollar policy that we've 210 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:16,280 Speaker 1: maintained for all this time. At the end of the day, 211 00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:19,400 Speaker 1: I think they're more focused on what they can control, 212 00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:22,000 Speaker 1: and they don't feel like the dollar is easily fits 213 00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:24,920 Speaker 1: easily within that sphere, so to the extent that their 214 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 1: blunt instrument can control financial conditions. I think they see 215 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:32,080 Speaker 1: what the damage they've done in markets, and they feel 216 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:35,040 Speaker 1: like it's part of their move into restrictive territory to 217 00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:39,199 Speaker 1: hit inflation the objective, not the unintended consequence. Laura, thank you, 218 00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:52,680 Speaker 1: Laura of FS Investments. Can I give a shout out 219 00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 1: to our next guest, tomp He came on the program 220 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:58,360 Speaker 1: back in February one fifteen dollar yen, he said, one 221 00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:01,040 Speaker 1: fifty and I almost found much. And I'll think and 222 00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:02,920 Speaker 1: here we are, say, k here we are, and Christopher 223 00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:07,080 Speaker 1: an smarter than the average bear on that macro strategy 224 00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:11,079 Speaker 1: strategistic strategius is is a bared uh Company. All I 225 00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:13,440 Speaker 1: can say, John is showing me any literature of the 226 00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:17,839 Speaker 1: show's unilateral intervention works. It's not out there, christopheroon what 227 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:22,040 Speaker 1: is out there is a desire for catharsis a vix 228 00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:25,360 Speaker 1: of forty and the eight other shades of it is Well, 229 00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:28,600 Speaker 1: it's not out there. But what element of the market 230 00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:33,400 Speaker 1: last week gave you a sense of catharsis? Well, what 231 00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:36,160 Speaker 1: I thought was most interesting about last week, You know, 232 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:38,160 Speaker 1: it was a good week for stocks, but what led 233 00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:42,480 Speaker 1: what's the only sector to do relative high? First the 234 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:46,319 Speaker 1: SMP was energy. Energy still leads, And this is what's 235 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:50,320 Speaker 1: really interesting on both down weeks and up weeks. Your 236 00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:54,320 Speaker 1: leadership really hasn't moved much. So I think, you know, 237 00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:56,200 Speaker 1: if you look at where the positioning still is, and 238 00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:58,560 Speaker 1: I would contend there's still a lot of positioning at 239 00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:01,600 Speaker 1: quote the top of the market, the Apples and the 240 00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:06,440 Speaker 1: Teslas and the Microsoft's energy outperforming doesn't help that group. 241 00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:10,080 Speaker 1: So I'm not sure a lot changed from a leadership perspective, 242 00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:11,959 Speaker 1: which is more important to us whether the next two 243 00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:15,360 Speaker 1: points is up or down if the leadership doesn't change, 244 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:19,079 Speaker 1: And you know, with technical analysis, does quality matter whether 245 00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:24,079 Speaker 1: it's quality small quality, large cap profitable companies showing down 246 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:27,760 Speaker 1: down the income statement. Does that matter right now? Well, 247 00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:30,160 Speaker 1: I think that was the other message from the market 248 00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 1: last week when you look at really what didn't move 249 00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:35,800 Speaker 1: or didn't rally, what I would still call the garbage 250 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:40,280 Speaker 1: basically didn't bounce. I mean things like Carvana or Roku 251 00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:45,520 Speaker 1: or names that have basically um were the speculative darlings 252 00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:48,199 Speaker 1: of the cycle which were thrown out. Those didn't move 253 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:50,920 Speaker 1: last week. So I think the market continues to make 254 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:54,080 Speaker 1: this very clear distinction between what is quality and what 255 00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:57,040 Speaker 1: is not quality. And I think ultimately, you know what, 256 00:13:57,040 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 1: what would be bullish from here? I think the market 257 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:04,120 Speaker 1: disassociated eating itself from things like Bitcoin or Arc or 258 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:06,320 Speaker 1: the I p o s that I think would be 259 00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:09,000 Speaker 1: a bolsh development that how to happen in two thousand two, 260 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:10,560 Speaker 1: if you remember, as we kind of came out of 261 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:14,000 Speaker 1: dot com, the market how to disassociate itself with a 262 00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:16,560 Speaker 1: lot of the garbage from the briar cycle. I gotta say, Chris, 263 00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:19,480 Speaker 1: right now, the headline is that Roku and Carbon are garbage, 264 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:21,960 Speaker 1: according to Christopherone of Strategus. I don't know that that's 265 00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:25,800 Speaker 1: necessarily the headline that you necessarily one, or maybe it is, 266 00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:27,560 Speaker 1: but there is this issue that right now there are 267 00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:29,840 Speaker 1: a lot of people who think that there's so much pessimism. 268 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:32,960 Speaker 1: We hear all the Barrish talk on this program elsewhere 269 00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:34,960 Speaker 1: and are sick of it. And you're seeing that come 270 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:38,200 Speaker 1: into the commentary. You're seeing that in the options market, 271 00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:41,320 Speaker 1: where you're seeing actually people putting on much less protection 272 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:43,880 Speaker 1: against the market dropping another ten percent. What do you 273 00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:48,800 Speaker 1: make of that? You know, it's a great question, Lisa, 274 00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:52,040 Speaker 1: and I'm struck by a couple of things. Number One, 275 00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:56,480 Speaker 1: I think back to late two thousand into two thousand nine. 276 00:14:57,120 --> 00:14:59,840 Speaker 1: I think that feeling of capitulation was very different than this. 277 00:14:59,880 --> 00:15:01,920 Speaker 1: I I mean, I can remember not wanting to turn 278 00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:04,440 Speaker 1: the screens on in the morning. I don't think we're 279 00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:07,360 Speaker 1: quite there yet today. The second thing I would just 280 00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:11,600 Speaker 1: notice be careful that or at least distinguished between what 281 00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:13,360 Speaker 1: people say they're doing with their money and what they're 282 00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:15,840 Speaker 1: actually doing with their money. And I still think the 283 00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:19,280 Speaker 1: gap between those two things is quite uh is quite 284 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:23,680 Speaker 1: wide here. The flows, for example, are still pretty aggressive 285 00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:27,080 Speaker 1: into both equities and bonds. I'm not sure that describes 286 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:30,640 Speaker 1: that cathartic or capitulative momentum. We do have good seasonal 287 00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:33,240 Speaker 1: support here for the next call at ninety days, I 288 00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:36,760 Speaker 1: want to be mindful of that we essentially oscillated between 289 00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:39,160 Speaker 1: thirty and thirty eight hundred for the better part of 290 00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:42,280 Speaker 1: the last six weeks. I could get you to let's 291 00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:45,960 Speaker 1: call it thousand on SMP, but then we have to 292 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 1: deal with the very inconvenient fact that this is still 293 00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:51,400 Speaker 1: a downtrend. And I think stocks rallying into down trends 294 00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:54,160 Speaker 1: are ultimately things that you want to fade uh down 295 00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:56,360 Speaker 1: the road. So there's a breaking point at some point 296 00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:59,400 Speaker 1: that a lot of people foresee yourself, Mike Wilson, and 297 00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:02,720 Speaker 1: you did correctly call the en going or weakening to 298 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:05,720 Speaker 1: one fifty per dollar? How much is that going to 299 00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:09,600 Speaker 1: be a potential catalyst? This question of what John called 300 00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 1: bonfire of central bank for an exchange reserves, how much 301 00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:18,320 Speaker 1: is that going to be really the trigger? Well, the 302 00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:21,520 Speaker 1: layers that we've used this is very simply the market 303 00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:23,520 Speaker 1: is back in charge here, and I think we saw 304 00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:25,720 Speaker 1: that in the UK over the last several weeks. I 305 00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:28,600 Speaker 1: suspect we're gonna learn that here in Japan over the 306 00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:32,320 Speaker 1: next number of months. I mean, the story is what 307 00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:34,480 Speaker 1: thirty billion dollars of intervention? I think that's what the 308 00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:38,240 Speaker 1: FT reports on Friday. So that's a fifty increase from 309 00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:40,960 Speaker 1: the twenty billion dollars of intervention that we saw I 310 00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:44,960 Speaker 1: think on September two. After the September intervention, it took 311 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:47,440 Speaker 1: fourteen trading days for yen to make a new load. 312 00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 1: So that's kind of our our benchmark here. Let's see 313 00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:52,000 Speaker 1: where we stand in two weeks. Are we talking about 314 00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:54,720 Speaker 1: one two yen again? Are we talking about I think 315 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:57,120 Speaker 1: that's going to be how we judge whether or not 316 00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 1: this is successful. Because when I see German tenure yields 317 00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:03,720 Speaker 1: at two fifty and US turns at four twenty, and 318 00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:07,080 Speaker 1: I see Japanese turns at twenty six basis point business points, 319 00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:08,800 Speaker 1: so there's a clear outlier here, and I think that's 320 00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:12,399 Speaker 1: an unsustainable path for the b o J to remain on. 321 00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:15,120 Speaker 1: You see the gamp blower on that chart, Ramo, there's 322 00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:16,960 Speaker 1: just smoke coming off the bottom of it. What is 323 00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:19,560 Speaker 1: it about forty billion dollars worth? Now? Article at this 324 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:23,040 Speaker 1: point men just ridiculous. I want to look at sterling 325 00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:26,160 Speaker 1: as well. One thirteen eighteen. Latest reporting from the team 326 00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:28,040 Speaker 1: in the UK term that Richie soon Act. The former 327 00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:31,760 Speaker 1: chancellor's getting the public endorsements and we've been tracking them 328 00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:34,840 Speaker 1: here at Bloomberg News. We've verified public statements from one 329 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:37,239 Speaker 1: hundred and seventy nine Tory MP so that's more than 330 00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:40,520 Speaker 1: half of the Tory MP's out time the nine this 331 00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:43,080 Speaker 1: morning our time. What happens at nine a m JOm 332 00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:46,199 Speaker 1: Perhaps we get a prime minister in the annoying the 333 00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:48,720 Speaker 1: Queen chi soon Auld. Maybe we've got to change the 334 00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:52,920 Speaker 1: language that we've got the King as wealth. Sure, big changes, Chris. 335 00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 1: I don't want to linger on it too long. I 336 00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:56,480 Speaker 1: think this market wants to move on and move on quickly. 337 00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:59,440 Speaker 1: You mentioned that maybe we've had one scalpe and list trust. 338 00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:01,439 Speaker 1: What is the next one come from? Chris? Can you 339 00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:03,679 Speaker 1: elaborate that on that a little bit more? Is that 340 00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:06,160 Speaker 1: a change in leadership at the b J that's set 341 00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:10,680 Speaker 1: to take place anyway? What is it? Well? I think 342 00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:13,159 Speaker 1: that's a good place to start. We wrote something to 343 00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:16,840 Speaker 1: the effect in I think February or March that the 344 00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:19,879 Speaker 1: b o J was going to have its b Oe 345 00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:23,160 Speaker 1: type event, and I didn't also think that the Boe 346 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 1: would have another Bowe nine YouTube type event, But of 347 00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:27,399 Speaker 1: course that's that's kind of what happened here over the 348 00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:30,119 Speaker 1: last several weeks. So I do think ultimately this is 349 00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:33,479 Speaker 1: heading towards some crescendo, and I think Japan is kind 350 00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:35,600 Speaker 1: of ground zero for that now. Also, keeping my time, 351 00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:39,240 Speaker 1: CNH this morning is at seven thirty thirty one, right, 352 00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:41,680 Speaker 1: so the stresses that we've seen in the Chinese currency 353 00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:44,479 Speaker 1: haven't abated here either. So I still have yen at 354 00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:48,320 Speaker 1: one fifty and I have Chinese uh at seven thirty. 355 00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:51,520 Speaker 1: I'm not sure that's the greatest environment for macro risk. 356 00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:55,080 Speaker 1: What are the technicals of the tenure real yield? Now 357 00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:58,160 Speaker 1: we splot it out to one, I'd call that catharsis 358 00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:01,920 Speaker 1: you come back, but we sets Arron above that one 359 00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:06,240 Speaker 1: sixty level. What's that chart looked like? Well, this is 360 00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:08,960 Speaker 1: a little bit of a pet peeve that this idea 361 00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:12,640 Speaker 1: that that that real yields are actually positive. I guess 362 00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:16,119 Speaker 1: theoretically they are positive. You're if you're taking right, you 363 00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:18,840 Speaker 1: take your break evens right. But if we look at 364 00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:21,280 Speaker 1: like the actual policy, right, I mean, what the Fed 365 00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:23,960 Speaker 1: funds rate is three and a quarter and inflations eight. 366 00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:27,159 Speaker 1: So I think for all intensive purposes, for for real people, 367 00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:30,640 Speaker 1: the real legis rate is actually still quite negative. So 368 00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:32,760 Speaker 1: I think there's more work to do here before the 369 00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:38,920 Speaker 1: FED really believes that short rates are offering a positive 370 00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:42,040 Speaker 1: Really year, it was Chrispherun our Fed speaker today. He's 371 00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 1: a Fed whisper, He's a whispers It was heartily Chris, 372 00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:49,840 Speaker 1: thank you, great cold buddy. You know, just Chris to 373 00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:56,520 Speaker 1: run that a fatigue. We're gonna swing back to China 374 00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 1: right now. Peter Twotz with his professor of international relations 375 00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:02,960 Speaker 1: at the London School of Economics. Peter, the advantage we 376 00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:06,320 Speaker 1: have here is your work at LBJ in Texas. What 377 00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:09,320 Speaker 1: is the symbolism that this is the only issue the 378 00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:15,720 Speaker 1: Republican and Democrat parties share in common in Washington? Frame 379 00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:20,440 Speaker 1: what we observe this weekend for a unified Washington as 380 00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:26,440 Speaker 1: they confront a third term. G Morning, Tom Well. I 381 00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 1: would say that for Washington, UH, for Republicans and Democrats, 382 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:36,080 Speaker 1: where they saw on display um in Beijing over the 383 00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:42,080 Speaker 1: weekend will only reinforce the view that that that China 384 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:46,560 Speaker 1: is um is a force to be that the US 385 00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:48,560 Speaker 1: are going to have to contend with going forward. I mean, 386 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:54,280 Speaker 1: it was a very impressive, carefully choreograph display of she's 387 00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:57,640 Speaker 1: power at the twentie Party Congress, but I think it's 388 00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:03,480 Speaker 1: more likely to fuel um, you know, insecurity security competition 389 00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:08,360 Speaker 1: in the region. One reason is that national security replaced 390 00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:12,080 Speaker 1: the economy is the dominant theme in the run up 391 00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:15,160 Speaker 1: to this weekend, and she's report to party members who 392 00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:19,000 Speaker 1: were gathered in Beijing, and it's no accident. I think 393 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:23,760 Speaker 1: that she held back today's latest report on China's lackluster 394 00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:28,879 Speaker 1: third quarter economic performance, the data until the Party Congress 395 00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:32,280 Speaker 1: wrapped up, and so what they saw on display was 396 00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:36,600 Speaker 1: she consolidating his hold on power. And the belief is 397 00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:40,160 Speaker 1: is that she is that the kind of underlying premise 398 00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:45,879 Speaker 1: is that she is interested in pushing China's ambitions in 399 00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:52,159 Speaker 1: the region and and expanding power, if only to compensate 400 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:56,520 Speaker 1: for the erosion, um, you know, the slowdown in economic 401 00:21:56,600 --> 00:22:01,880 Speaker 1: growth in China. Peter, what does this mean about Taiwan? Okay, Well, 402 00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:05,280 Speaker 1: she was actually very careful I think on Taiwan. On 403 00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:08,199 Speaker 1: the one hand, he made it, he announced or you know, 404 00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:11,480 Speaker 1: made a reference to the fact that if push came 405 00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:14,560 Speaker 1: to shove, they would use force there. On the other hand, 406 00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:17,240 Speaker 1: there was a kind of olive branch to Taiwan and 407 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:22,440 Speaker 1: trying to integrate Taiwan into the larger Chinese um economy. 408 00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:26,000 Speaker 1: But I think the big story kind of locally over 409 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:29,320 Speaker 1: the weekend there was what was happening at exactly the 410 00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:33,400 Speaker 1: moment that she was strengthening his grip on power at home. 411 00:22:33,560 --> 00:22:37,879 Speaker 1: Japan and Australia announced that they were deepening defense cooperation. 412 00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:43,200 Speaker 1: This happened on Saturday to counter j and Pain's growing 413 00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:46,720 Speaker 1: preoccupation with power and influence in the region. And it's 414 00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:52,480 Speaker 1: significant because it actually follows on an announcement a Japanese 415 00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:56,440 Speaker 1: proposal to develop a counter strike capability capable of attacking 416 00:22:56,480 --> 00:23:00,480 Speaker 1: and enemies command and control systems in military basis in 417 00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 1: the region. That is a big departure for Japan. If 418 00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:07,159 Speaker 1: that becomes policy, most people think it will be we 419 00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:11,640 Speaker 1: become policy in December, and so it's just a kind 420 00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:15,399 Speaker 1: of it's pushing the region more and more into a 421 00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:19,119 Speaker 1: kind of insecurity dilemma. Peter, if you're advising some of 422 00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:22,400 Speaker 1: the big US banks or a multinational in the US 423 00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:25,600 Speaker 1: trying to capture some of the business in the world's 424 00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:28,639 Speaker 1: second biggest economy. What would you tell them in terms 425 00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:31,800 Speaker 1: of how big of a sea change this particular meeting, 426 00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:35,320 Speaker 1: this particular apnointment for a third term of jan Ping, 427 00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:39,600 Speaker 1: really how important it was. I think it's significant. I mean, 428 00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:43,040 Speaker 1: I think he really kind of reinforced his commitment to 429 00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:47,680 Speaker 1: the state over markets, and you know, and and and 430 00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:52,879 Speaker 1: I think for businesses it will reinforce the need desire 431 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:56,560 Speaker 1: to hedge heads their bets going forward, to look for 432 00:23:56,600 --> 00:24:01,480 Speaker 1: other locations and so forth for investment. And I think 433 00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:03,879 Speaker 1: the kind of general reaction of the markets this morning, 434 00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:06,840 Speaker 1: I think that you were reporting on earlier kind of 435 00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:10,919 Speaker 1: points in that direction. So um, you know, you know, 436 00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:13,439 Speaker 1: as I said to people, to my students, you know, 437 00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:16,399 Speaker 1: when it comes to East Asia, it's time to buckle 438 00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:20,440 Speaker 1: up because the stronger she Jinping at home means greater 439 00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:22,840 Speaker 1: insecurity intention in the region. But I just want to 440 00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:25,240 Speaker 1: pick up on something you said, why does he care 441 00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:28,399 Speaker 1: about the data it's about the states over markets, because 442 00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:31,080 Speaker 1: really that data is not just for domestic consumption, it's 443 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:33,879 Speaker 1: for international consumption. Why does he still care about the 444 00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:38,600 Speaker 1: economic data. I think it's just that you're talking about 445 00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:43,960 Speaker 1: an event that is so carefully choreographed the Party Congress. 446 00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:46,040 Speaker 1: That to have that kind of come out. I think 447 00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:48,800 Speaker 1: it was supposed to be released a week ago, so 448 00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:51,320 Speaker 1: during the Party Congress or at the beginning of the 449 00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:55,680 Speaker 1: Party Congress. Um, you know, might have been unsettling for 450 00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:58,760 Speaker 1: some who have access to that information, even if most 451 00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:02,400 Speaker 1: Chinese would not really have access to it unless they 452 00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:06,520 Speaker 1: were um you know, um uh you know provided it. 453 00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:10,840 Speaker 1: So I think I think it it just it was 454 00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:14,200 Speaker 1: kind of off note for where he wanted to take 455 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:16,960 Speaker 1: the Party Congress.
