1:42
emerging markets are facing some
1:44
huge challenges right now quick mark quick
1:46
primer on are three types of markets
1:48
developed emerging and the frontier
1:51
market if you don't know
1:52
developed markets are consider us japan your
1:54
up their gdp growth is lower single digits
1:56
typically in the emerging market
1:58
properly defined as developed
1:59
the not fully developed i include countries like the
2:02
bricks because brazil russia india
2:04
china and recently added south africa
2:06
many other markets
2:09
included a match their privacy called the third
2:11
world in the eighties people didn't like that term investors
2:14
will bet imam having the higher
2:16
gdp growth typically two times
2:18
or three times what the developed world has china
2:21
for example twenty nineteen six percent growth us
2:24
in thousand and eighteen two point one percent growth
2:27
of course is frontier market
2:29
these are viewed as small unstable illiquid
2:32
generally risky if you look at something i can
2:34
yet vietnam those
2:36
would fall into that category vietnam
2:39
seven percent gdp growth in twenty nineteen
2:41
to the u s is two percent sometimes people like
2:43
to big bets on them there's a nice will chart
2:45
for ya to look at and you can just see china forces
2:47
vietnam and united states since
2:50
the eighties and so why
2:52
is this all important while the wall street journal reported
2:54
last week that he abs the emerging markets have
2:57
been selling massive pressure will get a free
2:59
market in market moment that's moment that's market
3:01
to be clear but readings that
3:05
probably half dozen things going on let me just highlights
3:08
maybe the top five and until had dropped the best these
3:10
you have high bonded loan yields the deaths
3:13
death , are increasing in emerging
3:15
markets of frontier markets think
3:17
what happens when you got a variable mortgage a variable try to
3:19
get a new market a new mortgage the
3:22
developing markets the
3:25
developing market investors have stopped
3:27
investing in emerging markets and frontier
3:29
markets as you might suspect during downturns
3:32
they're even putting money out then you have
3:34
surging inflation we all know about that and
3:36
we'll talk about inflation you're in the us with leopard print
3:38
this morning and slowing
3:41
growth we've also talked about this for the last
3:43
six months on the program all these problems
3:45
get exacerbated when for economic
3:47
growth slows and it's slow and globally and then finally
3:50
we have the potential issue of contagion
3:53
we don't know exactly what's gonna happen
3:55
when verse countries the facing challenges
3:58
although we did tell you hear what would happen the ukraine
4:00
shut up two sacks
4:03
and free bird fertilizer we'd oil all that
4:05
good stuff and it's becoming very
4:08
cute that's the carried a canary
4:10
canary in the coal mine is sri lanka breaking
4:13
news president your
4:16
purchase a sled for the melodies
4:18
and it's a state of emergency curfews her to
4:20
clear declared i think that's been cancelled
4:22
as of the taping of this we
4:24
can get into a state of sri lanka
4:27
your thoughts freiburg i know you've been shopping
4:29
at the bet to discuss this yeah now's a good long and
4:31
throw i think i'm the
4:36
the high level
4:37
for me if you look kind
4:40
of as debt markets around the world there's about three
4:42
hundred trillion dollars of global sad and
4:44
i put this chart in the as
4:46
chattered next he can put it on earth i'm
4:48
on the video
4:51
and about one hundred trillions of that
4:53
that globally
4:54
they then
4:56
emerging markets thirty
4:59
countries generally have much
5:01
more kind of
5:03
variable
5:04
gdp growth as well
5:06
as challenges ultimately with their currencies
5:09
most of this that
5:11
recently and this is an apprentice or
5:13
number of years lately have been issued
5:15
in their local currency rather
5:18
than in us dollars and so as the
5:20
currency devaluation
5:22
it becomes more challenging for an investor
5:24
to make a return if they're investing
5:27
from at us dollar denominated base
5:29
or some other dollar denominated
5:31
no i'm lucky
5:33
the emerging markets are are are heavily
5:36
saddled i mean some of these countries have over
5:38
eerie hundred percent
5:40
for two hundred and sixty percent
5:42
that to gdp
5:44
then what really got on recently i
5:47
is that many of them as net importers
5:49
of energy and food i didn't
5:51
struggle to make the stuff they need to make
5:53
at home or to see their people at home because
5:56
of the rising inflation that's been happening around
5:58
the world
5:59
there are those goods and services those kinds
6:03
are imported goods is more expensive that
6:05
makes it more challenging for people to be
6:07
able to afford food to be able to afford energy
6:10
this is part of what we're seeing happening in
6:13
our ensure lotta with com adding
6:15
that as we have rising inflation rising the us so as
6:17
we been talking about talking lot the feds been
6:19
raising interest rates here in the us which means that you
6:21
can now buy groceries that deal three percent
6:24
you're an investor around the world where
6:26
are you going to put your money set us treasuries
6:28
in a motorbike this you want to buy
6:31
three percent yield in us dollars versus
6:34
you know getting ten percent yields and
6:36
you know some currency denominated
6:38
accounts and currency denominated bond in a country
6:41
you don't really know our trust as much as the united states
6:43
and so as a result a lot of dollars
6:46
are moving out of emerging market that into
6:48
us that on the price of
6:51
that debt has collapsed and so we see in
6:53
the last couple of months a decline
6:55
of emerging markets that of about one percent
6:58
that makes it harder for the contrary to issue
7:00
new dead the fun things and it's creating
7:02
this really challenging spiral that
7:05
may ultimately lead to be false those
7:07
the false absolutely have a prevailing effect
7:10
in one country since the default and you're an investor
7:12
in emerging markets that you're going to say hey
7:14
wait a second this this this i just took a huge
7:16
loss in his position you can assert the sell
7:18
off other emerging market that and then it becomes
7:20
harder for the contrary to raise more that and fun themselves
7:23
and it's and cause a cataclysmic spiral
7:25
so it's you know it's a really scary scenario
7:27
where wading into now and i think we really
7:29
hope that the u s sensitive for interest
7:32
rates and we find some stability in these methods
7:34
over the next couple of months because it's not
7:36
as the food and energy crisis it's also humanitarian
7:39
crisis and ultimately could return a
7:41
global financial crisis on a
7:43
bond issue is that it's highly complex
7:45
but it's something that parts are talking very
7:47
closer what's happening also is the companies
7:50
that were already at risk are going
7:52
to start feeling this impact
7:54
we could jump into sri lanka if we want we
7:56
like a has
7:57
reading
7:58
a bunch of shorts whose and
8:01
the couple a very long term issues let
8:04
me set the backdrop because i think this think this interesting
8:06
let's take thirty
8:09
three month get through the lens of to other countries
8:11
jamaica and singapore the
8:14
people although you back to nineteen sixty
8:16
so you know roughly one singapore became
8:18
a nation
8:20
the jamaican population in nineteen sixty
8:23
was one point six million people singaporean
8:26
population was one point six
8:29
million people the longest
8:31
population was nine point eight million jamaica's
8:35
gdp was seven hundred million singapore
8:38
gdp was seven hundred million we
8:41
like as was one point four billie fast
8:44
forward to two thousand and twenty
8:46
two seen jamaica gdp is about
8:48
thirteen billion the
8:51
poor gdp has
8:53
grown to the three hundred and sixty billion
8:57
and three month as gdp is
8:59
eighty billion so what what is singapore
9:01
do well what did jamaica
9:04
trying to get right because one of the things that the tucked
9:06
in settlers or population even know their gdp didn't
9:08
expand their much per capita income still
9:10
quite healthy then what is real
9:12
i could get right what did we like a get wrong though
9:15
some things when you look at singapore is that
9:18
they found a way to
9:20
embrace it
9:22
might a very heterogeneous culture
9:25
set of religions in sight of that entity
9:28
in that inside that city state they
9:30
found a way to promote multiculturalism
9:32
yet also promote english as a lingua franca
9:35
why was that small things so important
9:38
because it allowed them to be a hub the
9:40
rest of the world in a way that many
9:42
many other countries couldn't do the
9:45
second thing that they had like
9:47
a very low level of corruption because
9:49
they had a leader in that case lee kuan
9:51
yew then
9:53
again some people in the west will painted as slightly
9:56
authoritarian the you
9:58
know he would painted as eden valley
9:59
the
10:00
the net result of it was very low levels of
10:02
corruption a small but highly
10:04
effective public service and
10:07
meaningful investments in education and healthcare
10:10
to make that country grover decades and
10:12
within a generation that country
10:14
completely chino exceeded all expectations
10:17
really
10:20
think struggle through a civil war
10:22
i was a all product of that civil war
10:25
the it was partly religious was partly
10:27
ethnic and
10:29
it was twenty plus years in
10:32
the making and then the happening
10:34
and he took a very right wing
10:37
autocratic leader the brother
10:39
of the current deposed president to
10:41
basically rooted out now in order to rooted
10:43
out they were enormous amounts
10:45
of war crimes and all kinds of things that i don't
10:48
think anybody would support accepted
10:50
brought i'm amount of stability
10:52
so then you would have thought okay maybe
10:54
this is the point at which you can now really
10:57
start to grow these
10:59
guys yet again found a way to
11:01
naval base and just to infuse so
11:04
much corruption in graft inside of how
11:06
the government run by the way the wasn't just the right
11:08
there was also the left a
11:11
two and a half times more on defense as
11:13
of last year than they did when they were more time
11:16
the make much sense the public service
11:18
crudo largest ever did
11:21
in a moment where you know you really should have
11:23
prioritized private enterprise so
11:25
all of these things sort of created a situation
11:28
where they fundamentally didn't know what they were doing
11:30
so at the other two issues there i think
11:33
about the great summary of like really those
11:35
fancy or countries and what may two hundred singapore
11:37
also has a great strategic location
11:40
which relies tiny shares they're both island
11:42
countries strategically located for
11:44
trade then
11:47
i guess the policies right singapore went on
11:49
a very very aggressive ah
11:51
tax and business policy
11:54
effort to sri lanka do that as well and
11:56
then maybe could speak to just how important
11:58
those are as islands you know
12:01
enter and their geography could you make it
12:03
doesn't obviously have the
12:04
i mean sri lanka has his massive growing
12:06
importance is china
12:08
has emerged
12:10
the problem in these last few years is that they
12:12
did everything possible not
12:15
just the illini china but to alienate everybody
12:17
on every dimension possible you
12:19
know they really need china the
12:22
du coup to growl was that there was an enormous
12:25
shipment of fertilizer chemical fertilizer
12:27
that was sent to the ports
12:29
then it was severely rejected and turned around
12:32
somewhere along the way the leadership
12:34
in sri lanka decided that they were
12:36
woke and so they enforce our every farmer
12:39
or now to go organic the prominent
12:41
sewing organic and organic fertilizer was
12:43
all the small farm shutdown all
12:46
the large farms had twenty to thirty percent crop
12:48
yields reductions
12:49
the prices of food went crazy
12:51
the reverse policies two or three times
12:54
and really what they sound as that you know they tried
12:56
to go woke instead they went broke then
12:59
all of a sudden all these other countries who are they are trying
13:01
to help said wait what is going on you said
13:04
the offended china the offended the middle easterners
13:06
this ended the japanese by cutting a
13:08
light rail project that japan wanted to fight i mean
13:11
it's every step of the way they d industrialized
13:13
the country found a what did indeed does feel
13:16
as they try to follow this whoop what
13:18
agenda is the industrialization i mean
13:20
reversing from like the modern techniques
13:22
of industrial production like fertilizer
13:24
and modern systems a farming is the
13:26
industrialization it's it's farm
13:29
you know it's gonna be a curse ultimately sacks
13:31
to your point we we we just discuss his last
13:33
week with the farmers
13:36
if you're in a frontier market
13:38
trying to adopt the regulations
13:41
and the city's your goals for the environment
13:43
of the emerging market is like to
13:45
giant hops it's it's it's it's probably
13:47
insurmountable well like
13:49
a the there's a strong algae between the
13:51
populist uprising is happening in the
13:54
netherlands with the does farmers and up populist
13:56
uprising this happening in sri lanka basically
13:59
there winning the same policies such we
14:01
want as a further down the road
14:03
and as a poor country to begin with so
14:06
you're like to mouth mention in april of last
14:08
year the sri lankan government banned the and
14:10
producer chemical fertilizers and pesticides
14:12
used in farming say began went with
14:14
this idea they celtic courage organic farming
14:17
though the result of that was that
14:19
overall production or
14:21
cultural blocks install by a third and
14:24
rice production fell by forty three percent and
14:26
rice's drove the biggest staple the
14:28
country's now you got people they're starving
14:31
are going hungry got massive suit
14:33
and security as well as a whole economy we
14:36
have been crippled the result
14:38
of that a society of firstly collapse so
14:40
you know now what would the question is why
14:43
did the sri lankan government feel compelled
14:45
to adopt these policies one
14:47
else to do with the factor getting these massive loans
14:49
from the world bag and the i m f and
14:52
the world bank and so forth are imposing these yeah
14:54
steel requirements so three watch
14:56
as something like i'd ninety eight percent vs
14:59
g rating even as their
15:01
economy and society the collapsing
15:04
how's that possible what they're doing a great
15:06
job falling the prescriptions the
15:08
global elites are davos i mean the sort
15:10
of global elite wise into
15:12
davos from brussels or washroom on
15:14
their private planes that panels on
15:17
e s g and then they prescribe these policies
15:19
for countries like free markets and this is
15:21
a result i mean it's crazy stephen
15:23
telling us for years that somehow there's no trade
15:25
off between their environmentalists
15:28
policies creating a healthy growing
15:30
economy indices of examples that's
15:32
not true there are real trade offs
15:34
year and the crazy thing is
15:36
the elites expect more people
15:39
in sri lanka to make up for
15:42
there environmental emissions as
15:44
not really fair at all here's another example
15:46
in march of twenty twenty three letter
15:48
in force one of the world's strictest
15:51
china asked ovid nine
15:53
lockdowns cover ninety not as despite
15:56
one of the lowest death rates and
15:58
infection rates in the
15:59
though
16:00
so for nearly three months it's literally
16:03
cripple the economy in the livelihood
16:05
of citizens there here's where
16:07
it gets crazy then the
16:09
actually go against global best practice
16:11
and the band the burrito of covert
16:13
nineteen victims claiming that
16:15
it could lead to groundwater contamination i
16:17
don't even know how they came up with you
16:20
know what is it was it significantly undermines
16:23
the small minority of
16:25
the country that is muslim because a religious
16:27
practice their you know is you bury
16:29
your death that cause great
16:32
pains to them and it's it's as
16:34
in turn it hurt all these international relationships
16:36
with all these gulf nations then
16:39
you you com other way around and then you go back to the
16:41
same gulf nations a few months later and you're like can
16:43
i have subsidized oil know i can
16:45
no not so much
16:47
and just to get paid a picture what's happening there right
16:49
now as i mentioned before it's
16:51
it's pretty much a state of emergency you could see there's
16:53
videos running on social media and
16:56
your oil take those with some caution because
16:58
sometimes people will take clips out
17:00
of context or i'll label them and
17:02
correctly and correctly clips from other moments had times
17:05
but what's really happening there right now you
17:07
shared a video in our group shot
17:08
is in everything is now
17:12
the the old out in very
17:15
small amount so there there there
17:17
are lines for
17:18
basic goods and inflation
17:21
is is crippling there and as
17:23
three bird mentioned they started to pin
17:26
there the exchange rate the
17:29
end and their currency to
17:32
i guess the world's exchange rate and now
17:34
everything is super expensive
17:37
and essential imports fall
17:39
like food in madison and fuel they don't
17:41
have the money to pay for it so this is going to
17:43
be a complete societal collapse it seems
17:46
the never need to get bailed out there was a bill
17:48
that was introduced in the government that said the central
17:51
bank
17:52
the
17:54
the worst to have a discipline
17:57
on money printing sense familiar the
17:59
noted twenty twenty the central bank of sri lanka
18:01
began printing money in order to finance
18:04
going budget deficit again happens in
18:06
many countries
18:08
and they did that in part to facility
18:10
election promise that they made that they would maintain
18:12
single digits interest rates again
18:14
sounds really familiar
18:16
though
18:17
the printed about one hundred billion
18:19
rupees in march in the next two years
18:22
the central bank printed one point six
18:24
five trillion rupees
18:26
right to sixteen and a half times that first
18:28
number
18:29
and as a result what they saw was the highest
18:31
inflation in post independence history the
18:34
time after time what you're actually seeing
18:36
in sri lanka not a microcosm
18:38
of something that's endemic to whatever
18:41
you want to colleges in a developing country a third
18:43
world country center
18:45
the fence your country is southeast asian countries
18:47
in fact it actually resembles many
18:50
of the policies that exists in so
18:52
many countries all around the world and what's
18:55
really important here is it has
18:57
goes sri lanka so
18:59
goes gonna so goes pakistan
19:02
so goes of whole bunch of countries
19:04
where you're already starting to see food
19:07
riots food insecurity energy
19:09
security rampant inflation the
19:12
sovereign default and
19:14
you have to ask yourself like how are we
19:16
going to really tourniquet this whole thing
19:18
and prevent a much bigger contagion
19:21
like rebirth just talked about i think it's a we
19:23
might reality olds you must be because
19:26
ah you mention coven it turns out
19:29
a lot of these frontier countries were
19:31
already on get release and
19:33
being given a moratorium on
19:35
making their debt payments since they got so
19:37
while up during cove it then now
19:40
the other shoe drops and here we are
19:42
there's no relief you can give them if they're already
19:44
not paying their loans in some cases by
19:46
the way here's another thing that happens in a lot of these developing
19:49
countries so in the middle of all this chaos what
19:51
he thinks happen the parliament got together
19:53
the past as a member to the constitution
19:55
and it in forests and it gave incremental
19:58
power to one individual depressed
20:00
typically in most of these countries that run
20:03
by a parliamentary system the president is a
20:05
cigarette right the person shows
20:07
up me know he can
20:09
kiss his babies that's it right maybe convenes
20:11
the senate a bad is it
20:14
now what a sudden the person has control over
20:16
defense control over budget control of a central
20:18
bank
20:19
the person cannot be you
20:21
know voted out in the no confidence vote the same
20:23
way that a prime minister that happened
20:25
here as well so yet another example of
20:27
if you start to see a bunch of autocrats
20:30
and somebody is developing markets feel
20:32
like the answers more power it's
20:34
been tried here it did more though
20:36
i think that there's a there's a lot of lessons i
20:40
i'm a little concerned and skeptical that many
20:42
of these other developing countries that are teetering on insolvency
20:45
will actually learn i
20:47
mean what they need to we are the definition
20:49
of the developed world reportedly
20:51
and we have a president who tried
20:53
to stay in power stolen election sell it
20:55
as it literally is happening here and united
20:57
states as well the parallels are truly
21:00
terrifying right the cp i i'm
21:02
i'm sorry asceticism was rolling my eyes
21:05
or followed or is as well as or noise from
21:07
iraq that's what it was it's actually like
21:09
a boulder right honey health by sorry costume
21:11
also questioned up the model
21:13
model way if people don't know tomorrow is
21:15
of sri lankan dissenters to make that clear if you
21:17
didn't hear his mentioned what he did you go there a
21:19
couple years ago i mean
21:21
here's another great example of
21:23
in this case this was the last who
21:26
managed to the things
21:28
up so it's not just the right said screw things up
21:30
in that country select as well so in this example
21:33
i went there and i
21:36
offered to bring google loon myself
21:38
in google we
21:40
offered to bring internet access to the entire like,
21:43
guaranteed internet access this
21:46
is like years ago the
21:48
and we set up an entity and
21:50
the government tried to do the right
21:53
thing and grandson spectrum
21:55
and instead of sort of like
21:57
the fast tracking this and allow
22:01
you know this project to become a reality
22:04
there was an enormous amount of inciting
22:08
that essentially said that you know we were
22:10
trying to steal the license or we saw
22:12
the license or we were trying to monetize a license
22:15
and both me and google were just like
22:17
forget this this is not worth it and we abandon the
22:19
project and walked away instead
22:21
google ends up servicing a whole bunch of other countries
22:23
in the reason why sri lanka was part of it is because
22:26
the blues follow a certain orbit
22:28
and he would have it copied would go over
22:31
sri lanka no matter what so it's kind of like we
22:33
can light it up for free all we need a spectrum in
22:35
this country googles already doing that were you
22:38
know i've i've i've gone there few times i
22:42
found it very difficult to try to do the right thing
22:44
i think people there's a level of
22:46
infighting
22:47
that i hope this crisis
22:49
angel i also think that
22:52
it's an opportunity for people to
22:54
reset writ large
22:56
the gerontocracy that runs many of these
22:59
countries including the united states quite honestly
23:01
the there is an opportunity there
23:03
are some you know my friends who
23:05
i think may emerge in the next few
23:07
weeks we're
23:10
very well known people in that country who
23:12
literally want to step one the
23:16
move most of the executive
23:18
power from the presidency make
23:20
it a true you know parliamentary
23:22
south system with an empowered prime minister
23:24
and empowered elect elected
23:26
officials and let the country run at six itself
23:29
you know d prioritise and defense spending
23:31
d prioritize the growth of the public sector
23:34
reap prioritize the growth of
23:36
the private sector i hope they're successful as
23:39
would love to invest if given the opportunity
23:42
hundred those kinds of market conditions and
23:44
i would love to go back at some point but my
23:47
history with the country has been very fraught because
23:49
the as i've gone to try to do the work free bird
23:53
people are just haters and
23:55
now here is a growing up their nose off
23:57
despite the field they said visits to the worst
23:59
things smart there's a i think you have a
24:01
second swing a bat here only fifty
24:04
percent or so of people in sri lanka have internet
24:06
access and maybe we could
24:08
talk to her friend over starlink and
24:11
that could be an incredible mitzvah and and
24:13
changing as you get one hundred percent of the country on
24:15
internet i got back to change everything
24:17
and it seems you have reasonable by
24:19
the way in this is the most literate country in
24:21
the world the up understand like the people in that country's
24:24
the human potential i country is incredible
24:27
okay there are not developing countries
24:30
like this that had this type of literacy
24:32
the and the kindness of the people
24:34
these are incredible hardworking people the
24:37
elected class
24:40
some of the most inward navel
24:42
gazing corrupt people this
24:45
is the opportunity for the young people of that country
24:47
to wipe the slate clean with all of them
24:50
and start over with some i think i'm
24:53
illiteracy rate is ninety two percent or something
24:55
crazy there it's it's very high the
24:57
highly educated literate group
24:59
of people the truth is the number of people living
25:02
in extreme poverty has plummeted
25:05
thanks to globalization we went from
25:07
almost get two billion people living
25:09
in extreme poverty now a it's
25:11
gonna be that's for the and in our lifetimes we
25:13
have maybe five hundred six hundred million people living in extreme
25:15
poverty that's because of globalization
25:18
that's the great thing that's happened now was
25:20
also habit of the same time as people have
25:22
gotten that a think we have the leads to sachs's
25:24
point who think they know better and they're trying
25:26
to enforce on enough merging market
25:28
or a frontier market god forbid the
25:30
things that we have the luxury of doing in
25:33
the desert we don't even do wait
25:35
hold on we'll we'll
25:37
we'll ban chemical fertilizers in the western
25:40
world what western do have of europe has standards
25:42
for gas mileage gas but went over there
25:44
we have emissions standards we have the
25:46
accords that we've been working on all of these things
25:48
are starting are the developed world
25:51
and now exactly two exactly day we just saying
25:53
is were taken from the developer we are imposing
25:55
them and sri lanka apparently embrace
25:57
it embrace it the appointment
26:00
three longer is not rich
26:02
enough to resist exactly issue
26:04
so the us as and he
26:06
has to rating of fifty one percent sherlock as
26:08
ninety eight percent why is that because
26:10
in our country we're not can impose these crazy
26:13
mandates there's enough resistance to it
26:15
but if you're in three longer
26:17
and you have these massive loans and debt service
26:20
you have to do what di
26:23
martin of world bank in always in international
26:25
what your surgery to do yes
26:27
exactly they're the ones you impose all this
26:29
stuff so great so three all
26:31
kinds of the ninety percent near perfect
26:34
s g rating even as the country's completely
26:36
collapsing read the sullenberger article
26:38
here he says dinner one reason for the false
26:40
relaunches as leaders fell under the spell
26:43
of western green elites peddling
26:45
organic old agriculture and he is
26:47
t then he mentions
26:49
the three aren't as a near perfect score of ninety eight
26:51
tired and sweden which is eighty six us and fifty
26:54
want what does having setai years
26:56
to score mean it's sort of means as real
26:58
august two million farmers were forced
27:00
to stop using fertilizers and pesticides
27:03
laying waste his critical agricultural sector then
27:06
a good goes on from there the
27:09
it was the imposition it
27:11
is not that three launches politicians
27:14
implemented sri lankan ideas cause
27:17
the collapse of their country they implemented
27:19
western ideas and for money or ohio corrupt
27:21
see so here's a comedy sir an offer actually
27:24
very much as they implemented the ideas
27:26
they learn at davos it's almost perverse
27:28
you've got all these you know western
27:31
elites again like john kerry and so forth they
27:33
find their private jets davos comedies
27:36
yes you was they coerce
27:38
countries like syria wanted to obey them in
27:41
into people's we want to end up paying the price
27:44
this is make any sense
27:48
what's your reaction of magic health isn't i don't blame
27:50
is on trial no
27:54
yourself how trump has to do with as
27:57
your gobbled up by mean i'm still
27:59
thinking about it
27:59
the principles
28:01
you know we we should as a is
28:03
it our species humanity should
28:05
be trying to trend towards taking care of the
28:07
planet and lowering emissions and
28:09
being in renewables and then how we go
28:11
about doing it perhaps there was didn't tenth year
28:14
but obviously of the country is corrupt and
28:16
your teetering already and they don't have the bank
28:18
roll to do it forcing them to do it can
28:20
lead to collapse nobody forced anybody
28:22
but what did the score give you it's not as if it's
28:25
all of that i've gotten them by nature of you
28:27
get your alone if you do these
28:29
yeah see requirements so that is forcing
28:31
them to factor okay fair enough but i'm saying
28:33
like you know now that you have discourse not as if you
28:35
issued green bonds and you could stave off
28:37
anymore no they didn't do anything
28:40
you what you said before as a look at the sri sri
28:42
lanka should be looking at what singapore did and
28:44
just copy the playbook right i mean it's so obvious
28:47
that you know a country with a requires
28:49
a level of long term leadership and
28:51
and a lot of
28:52
the lack of corruption and i think those those
28:55
two things are very hard to come by and i think a third
28:57
which is a very controversial safe and makers required
29:00
singapore to adopt english as a lingua franca
29:02
announcer this to singapore they also brace multiculturalism
29:05
right so if you had forced you know
29:07
at first but you had bilingualism in the school
29:09
so hindi malays or
29:11
sorry tamil malays chinese right
29:14
you could you would learn all of those and so you
29:16
know you you captain ethno centricity
29:18
to where you came from they
29:21
they allowed you to understand a lingua franca
29:23
that allowed you to merchandiser skills to the rest
29:25
of the weight and eventually bought are you saying they
29:27
adopted the melting pot playbook
29:29
and they allowed everybody from around the world to have
29:31
their concert but yet participate in a common
29:34
go oh my god literally if is
29:36
a melting pot to young people today and everybody should
29:39
try to adopt you know a new
29:41
culture but keep some of their own people
29:43
find great offense to that that's
29:45
where we were all taught the melting pot is what made this
29:47
country great an ugly one you to scalded multiculturalism
29:51
but my my point is that you know having
29:54
the english decision by singapore was important
29:57
i think steady predictable leadership by lee kuan
29:59
yew was really
29:59
the go
30:02
the i know lack of corral it is you
30:04
know the way in which they they they promoted
30:06
their public sector meaning you know some of the
30:08
best thing jobs and singapore was the public sector
30:10
job right like you would aspire
30:12
to work for the government singapore and
30:14
so as a result you at policies and movements
30:16
and and the movement of capital and progress
30:19
and rules separatists or it's an example
30:21
first for so many countries and
30:24
you you look where they are today for such a small population
30:26
sad the same gdp by the you should vietnam
30:29
step a larger gdp the vietnam which
30:31
is an incredible states
30:33
definitely singapore's of ingenuity
30:35
so
30:36
could that have been three lot that i think
30:38
so knowing that
30:41
you know that the levels of literacy
30:43
and intelligence and frankly mike
30:45
look that the religious stability that can
30:47
come from buddhism yeah
30:50
we're not that brave worst where we are today
30:52
which is a shame the and
30:54
mrs the canary in a call my i think we're going to save
30:56
freiburg out at or know what you think
30:58
is going to happen over the next six months the
31:01
going to be other domino certainly yes i mean
31:03
i watch for arab
31:05
spring tides behavior right i mean
31:07
you saw the protests and people stormy
31:09
the presidential palace and for a lotta
31:12
the you know if i would
31:14
imagine if we had a
31:16
report from the
31:19
intelligence advisers to the president the
31:21
united states there's probably a
31:23
long list and a growing list the
31:26
nation's you want to keep an eye on right now where
31:29
there is food insecurity energy security
31:32
declining currency you
31:34
know rising debt burden and
31:37
you know there's a breaking point for all of these
31:40
and as you said to it hit that breaking
31:42
point you start to see more what happens rock us
31:44
now when destabilization like this happens
31:47
is scary because what happens
31:50
is there's a new power that emerges
31:52
those powers may or may not be aligned
31:54
with the interests of the united states of the interests
31:56
of allies with the interests of the world would
31:59
the interests of western democracy and
32:01
so there are kind of scary moments that can
32:03
emerge over the next couple of quarters and
32:05
years as the camel's
32:08
back start to break as one
32:10
straw after another is put on
32:12
the back and camels of my and who's
32:14
the white knight who's gonna come in and savior and
32:16
twenty or more specifically be china india
32:18
russia or the nice mates were plowing forty
32:21
billion dollars insists supporting the ukraine
32:23
conflict yeah
32:25
we're busy kind of protecting our energy
32:28
interests and our interests
32:30
with nato has as the united states
32:32
and as you point out china will
32:34
likely end up becoming the savior and
32:36
supporter particularly where they have
32:39
infrastructure investments and and interests
32:41
i mean i don't have you guys have followed as china's been building
32:44
presidential palaces for african
32:46
leaders throughout the continent the
32:48
mohammed anywhere either incredible you guys
32:50
super photos of a month and a video
32:52
but i have a that's the wrong one that
32:54
sex is house so sorry guys out that
32:57
, out of our our next was sort
33:00
of or not they might put such as as the same so many
33:02
things but there are no reports of
33:04
the brother president i just for sorry that the as
33:06
from us never saw any way but
33:08
yeah businesses are are know
33:11
a moment to watch because
33:13
there's a very you know unfortunate confluence
33:16
of circumstances that may lead to
33:18
destabilization that may lead to
33:20
influence and power been gained by folks
33:23
and aren't direct allies the united states and
33:25
this is why he want to build up a great
33:27
cash reserve and have a really
33:29
stable economy so that when these moments
33:31
to happen
33:32
you know the good actors the world can take advantage
33:34
of us prose the that once in the united states is not
33:37
a great position for this every
33:39
society as they say
33:40
the me out three miss meals away from tire
33:44
there are now for record nineteen
33:46
developing countries the
33:48
sovereign debt trading at the stress levels
33:50
nineteen and to that have already started
33:53
that's just know the united man as
33:55
nukes ryan i'm a of as scientists
33:57
months that's problematic well
33:59
and package then pick it was famous
34:01
for enabling other countries iran
34:04
north korea reportedly they
34:06
look at their nukes as an export and
34:08
they are more than willing to sell years later acknowledged
34:10
as you guys are like from fort you know there are
34:12
currently as of today inflation protests
34:15
going on across the locker albania argentina
34:18
panama tenure donna
34:20
and if you look at the videos
34:22
and you look at the images are some of these protests
34:24
and again there's like you know in the african
34:27
continent there are you
34:29
know very radical militant groups that will
34:31
try and seize power if they're see stabilization
34:34
at the top
34:35
the and you know there are there are risks
34:37
in in south america i mean all
34:39
over the world are you know these
34:41
sorts of moments to catalyze
34:43
a real shift in power and influence
34:46
the ender and and there's a lot of it going
34:48
on so you better believe that sucks in the
34:50
us state department the cia are very busy right
34:52
now
34:52
if you are if you look at bond prices
34:55
the three countries that are the next closest
34:57
to defaulting so rush has defaulted but that was
34:59
more of a agree no foreign
35:01
currency controls that that didn't allow them to
35:03
pay between like as officially he folded in the next
35:05
three or el salvador gone on pakistan
35:09
by the way argentina to see guys know
35:11
the argentinian print on inflation
35:15
the only things are several the nxt
35:17
one for sense that , we
35:20
are nine point nine know they had know they the
35:22
fault of years ago renegotiate since
35:24
they've been back at the table over and over negotiating
35:27
for years
35:28
and now they're facing the sad
35:30
disinflationary crisis yet again
35:33
it's a it's a scary moments in
35:35
argentina
35:37
this is exactly what the european crisis
35:39
with the portugal
35:42
italy greece and spain we're
35:44
going to see a lotta negotiations occurring i really
35:46
believe in this country and i think the people are incredible
35:48
and i hope that the
35:51
whoever the president
35:53
agreed
35:55
as much power away from that role in person
35:57
of and the prime minister gets a little
35:59
right
35:59
what my hobby for the best okay cp
36:02
ice as everybody who listens this our
36:04
nose is a basket of goods and services
36:06
and how it changes over time he could slice
36:08
and dice the cp i ah be found
36:11
food energy shelter your house etc
36:13
last two months have been just extraordinary
36:16
to watch driven obviously by energy
36:18
which has been driven by the russia
36:21
ukrainian conflict to the sack
36:23
rant on bidens administration
36:25
the core index doesn't include
36:27
energy and so if you were to look at the core
36:30
and index it and here's a chart
36:32
five point nine percent in june
36:35
the end it peaked actually with six
36:38
point five percent
36:40
in march so that's been trending down
36:43
if you take energy out of it we
36:45
, an exposure was rude i think are are
36:47
excluded from core yeah and
36:49
if we haven't we haven't
36:51
experienced core inflation like this since the seventies
36:53
or eighties here's another charges to zoom out
36:56
and you'll see exactly how
36:58
during this has been for basically
37:01
our generation we haven't experienced
37:03
since if you were born in the seventies or so
37:05
that's when it was higher than it is
37:07
today the and we
37:10
had obviously goods and services plummet
37:12
in our lifetime because the globalization
37:14
and low interest rates hour energy
37:16
hasn't seen inflation like this
37:19
since is already what does this or the cpr
37:21
what is that that is the core so that
37:23
are so if i sat score so and then
37:25
here's the energy
37:27
one coming up next so we'll look at energy
37:29
obviously energy has
37:32
been volatile in our lifetime
37:34
because lifetime because of the oil in
37:36
the world is controlled by dictators middle east
37:38
russia of and as well yada yada the
37:40
forty percent year over year ah
37:42
increase in cost of gas
37:44
and oil and energy has
37:47
put us back to the mid seventies eighties in terms
37:49
of pain that this short say said spike
37:51
in all over the place but generally it was
37:53
under twenty percent and now we're back above
37:56
twenty percent is all about the oil
37:59
the market
37:59
we're talking and the group chat before you
38:02
were kind of satisfied with nine point one do you think
38:04
the nine point one we're seeing in inflation
38:07
print today which was hired
38:09
and expectations
38:11
what did i can lead to in terms of the interest
38:13
rate hike seventy five basis points or you
38:15
think they just go right to one you know we talked
38:17
about this that this is gonna be a big print i
38:19
think we all expected this to be a big print
38:22
the actually also kind of put myself on
38:24
a limb there and i said new no i wouldn't be surprised
38:26
if at some point we printer hi
38:29
nine maybe even a ten handle it so yeah point
38:31
not get there
38:33
the reason is because you
38:35
know rents are a little
38:38
chino they lag in how
38:41
they report is inside of cp i so
38:43
we have a couple more months to go as
38:45
branson rents are moving or
38:47
budging a bit
38:51
number one i'm we do see
38:53
a little bit of fall off and in energy prices
38:55
butts i'm not sure that it's it's enough
38:57
frankly to to move the needle so i think
38:59
that we could be in a sustained period for while the
39:03
more interesting thing i saw today was
39:05
that canada surprised everybody
39:07
and raised there benchmark interest
39:09
rate by a hundred basis points okay sadie
39:12
hawkins one four point one hundred bits and they
39:14
just said we're going for it we need to team
39:17
we need to break the back of inflation
39:19
they ripped a band it off yeah
39:21
and you know and i think if you read
39:23
the said minutes more carefully
39:25
i think jerome powell is basically ready
39:28
to do the same thing yep past the disinflation
39:30
friend the expectation for july
39:33
my pick tv basis points from seventy
39:35
five which means a small percentage of people
39:38
ought to think it's gonna be one hundred in
39:40
september i think moved to seventy five so
39:45
the question is is that enough
39:46
i
39:48
just don't know i
39:51
i don't know and to be clear
39:53
this is for june the data we are today
39:55
june july thirty this for june what
39:57
we did see in july cause we can track well
39:59
it is that down twenty percent movement
40:02
over months and the cpr has been driven
40:04
largely by oil suspected aftermath
40:06
what do you think it's gonna be in july
40:08
when we get it in august of a yes or no because
40:10
the again the owner a cool though the rest are
40:13
up so much that they may actually
40:15
you know breakeven meaning
40:17
rent go up by so much oil gonna
40:19
buy so much they cancel and we're still at night
40:22
can i could not your prediction for july which
40:24
will get in august he big nine he
40:26
i'm worried that we're in a sustained
40:28
inflationary environment i'm worried
40:30
about that i hope that we're not the
40:34
then the question jason secondarily is and one
40:36
of the markets to and so interesting
40:38
today is like the markets shook it all
40:40
off i mean like you could not have had a worse
40:42
inflation print everything was up while
40:45
ten meaning meeting like
40:47
he was going beyond the number that was
40:49
expected every component of it was up
40:51
everything looked horrible and
40:54
people like me them
40:56
is that because the market it's future looking csx
40:59
he was being an ugly pricing
41:02
will get through this and six to twelve months is our
41:04
years on the most of the mothers are down i now to be clear
41:06
it up the print was definitely worse than expected
41:08
they were doing yeah they were expecting
41:11
a point eight percent it was my point one last
41:13
month's number was a point six i remember
41:15
us talking about inflation a couple months
41:17
ago saying that we thought they picked
41:20
me or maybe in april or may at the latest
41:22
simply because the voices
41:24
measured on your over your basis and
41:27
where's or no lot much for your com slash to
41:29
remember this conversation yes or the lopping
41:31
effect turned out not to be enough
41:34
and inflation is still rising so we have not
41:36
yet pissed on cp i understand that course
41:39
we have peaked by the going
41:41
to school energy and
41:44
food i mean that's a pretty arbitrary decision
41:46
those are you really important variables
41:48
that matter the ordinary americans
41:50
prefer though we solve this
41:53
problem and from from our point we
41:55
don't know what is gonna be meniscus aside the
41:58
big question now is when doesn't they shouldn't finally
42:01
peak in start going down
42:03
where should be and then how much as
42:06
severe recession do we have to have
42:08
in order for the fed solve this problem i
42:11
feel like things are turning over in real estate
42:13
we talked about that last week the number of homes
42:15
being listed is skyrocketing
42:17
the number of mortgages being originated
42:20
is plummeting while the rate goes
42:22
up so we're going to see mortgage rates probably
42:24
go six seven percent for
42:26
the end of year
42:28
that gonna put a huge cabal the
42:32
hi and real estate is also starting to get hit
42:34
massively the
42:36
number of listings of listings up in the high and
42:38
and the number cells is plummeting so
42:41
that was one of those cards we wanted to see turnover
42:43
and it looks like that's turning over to someone smokes
42:46
or for kitchen is it of we obsess over
42:48
cpr right now because we're all kind of these they'd
42:51
macro want to be traders but i just
42:53
want to remind you could the said it's been pretty clear about
42:55
the say don't focus on c b i the focus
42:57
on something else instead copy city which is
42:59
so
43:00
personal consumption expenditures price
43:02
and yes
43:04
and i don't know what the flow
43:06
through from cpr to pcp i is
43:08
exactly
43:09
the
43:11
that in the broadest measure of goods and
43:13
services which doesn't include food and energy
43:15
though it stands to reason
43:17
that pc he may say elevated for
43:19
a while which made his
43:21
that bad enough of the motivation they need
43:24
to go a hundred to go another hundred
43:26
or maybe go hundred and seventy
43:27
then a seventy five i think that
43:30
david point is right like
43:33
teaming that we've been expecting to see we haven't
43:35
seen it so every month
43:37
it's like oh is coming next month every month
43:39
has been on to something that's us as at some
43:41
point you may just have to say maybe we're
43:44
and like a sustained period for a while
43:46
and i have to believe it's going up before i believe it's going
43:48
to stay stable a good well we did see
43:50
energy go down housing we are seeing
43:52
now are starting to contract the number
43:55
of a price cuts has
43:57
been surgery according to redfin so i
43:59
think we're starting [unk] the lay offs obviously happened
44:01
two months ago so don't we things that
44:03
were starting to see that headwinds and then we were
44:05
talking to a buddy of ours who's begun
44:07
the airline space
44:09
he said god the and i think you are pointing
44:11
out the statistic that heathrow is now capping
44:13
the number of
44:15
people can rely but you've been or israeli so
44:18
overloaded with with traffic of
44:20
passengers the
44:22
today came out and said we are capping the number
44:24
of passengers to one hundred thousand a day
44:27
there more
44:28
this is after the cost of
44:30
those flights was skyrocketing you
44:32
know six seven thousand dollars a really good
44:35
sacks i really was to go back to sack
44:37
said before he did this the
44:39
nuggets for me of this entire summer
44:41
was what he said about
44:43
his take away from the code two conference right
44:45
just remind people you know that the
44:47
person said something to the effect of well
44:50
not all these other people will be saving money and
44:52
cutting jobs i intend to hire and new
44:54
know nothing has changed from and
44:57
the comment that i made in our group chat is or
45:00
maybe that's the psychology of everybody
45:02
it's like to determine he'll the gutters that yeah
45:04
just disagree clear what what kotor
45:06
did as a date polled all
45:08
the founders in the audience the poll results
45:10
show that on the one hand ever in the audience and of
45:12
so that we are headed for a big downturn and
45:15
economic conditions and fundraiser we must offer
45:17
on the other hand all the founders or two
45:19
thirds i'm said they were gonna use
45:21
this downturn to accelerate or business supposed
45:24
to caught my want to one conversation of the various founders
45:26
basically are in line with that
45:28
which is it's all not meet you
45:30
know i know everybody else is can
45:32
be impacted is go after caught by
45:35
i'm going to be the one exception it will be
45:37
exceptions absolutely but everybody
45:39
can be the exception so i never
45:41
knew what i'm saying i'm going to still by my car
45:43
i'm still going on my summer vacation everybody else
45:45
has to make that's why doesn't matter what they say
45:47
consumers are behaving that way you know
45:49
american airlines
45:51
basically put out what they were they thought they
45:53
were going to be their stock was up ten percent you
45:55
know heathrow says we have too much traffic we're going
45:57
to capital one hundred k there was an article
45:59
about
45:59
know you know us home prices and
46:02
rents and there were these two
46:04
housing companies in the wall street journal that were profiled
46:07
and both of them serve middle income neighborhoods in
46:09
houston and these other places they're like we've
46:11
never done better business
46:13
and you know there are fewer and fewer people buying
46:15
homes because a mortgage rates the all want to read we
46:18
in our complete have we have complete ball control
46:22
we're we're is the stopping and the slowing
46:24
down of spending it just may be reflexively
46:26
this thing where everybody feels like to
46:28
be you know to have the polite dinner conversation
46:30
they have to talk about how they're pulling back it
46:33
doesn't seem like anybody's pulling austerity
46:36
measures have not yet yeah well i think
46:38
i think they are in the process of working but it takes
46:40
a while to me when i was say is like we are one
46:42
hundred percent gonna solve disinflation
46:45
problem why do i say that because
46:48
bubbles are fully within the hour the feather duster
46:50
raise interest rates high enough mobile
46:54
prove that in the early nineteen eighties
46:56
here to raise interest rates as high as twenty
46:58
percent but he crossed the
47:01
inflation ickes seventies but that's what it taught
47:03
so i've no doubt that the said can stop
47:05
inflation i think the question is how much
47:07
plane or the after inflict how high
47:10
do rates have to go and how long
47:12
do we lived through this sort of stagflationary
47:14
period in dot the unsettling
47:16
thing is we're just doesn't seem like were anywhere near
47:19
the end of this yet i wrote this i
47:21
wrote this last week and a little note but some
47:23
this is why as you look at the tail or a again
47:26
you know people and abandoned the tail or a that's not what
47:28
it used to be i guess but you know it's still pretty
47:31
directional reactor at which is what
47:33
did the true equilibrium interest
47:35
rate
47:36
that allows us to basically manage to meet
47:38
supply and demand together so that we have a com
47:40
stable economy that
47:43
that stable equilibrium
47:45
rate is approaching five percent
47:49
you know our target the
47:51
the collective wisdom of the to of the market
47:54
leave that three percent is enough to get the job
47:57
we're right now at one point five to
47:59
one point
47:59
seven five so if
48:02
there's any number between three
48:04
and five that is the true price
48:08
we have a lot of work to do
48:11
the get
48:13
he was real your point because the the tenured
48:15
t bill has been kind of floating around
48:17
three percent though that is the long
48:19
term expectation the
48:21
interest rate that's required tags for as normal
48:24
inflation by what if it's
48:26
four percent it's five percent if that ends
48:29
up being the case if you use downside
48:31
to parse the stock market
48:33
how would you define ten
48:35
percent pullback twenty percent pulled back from here while
48:38
you have a bunch of things that we we talked about this
48:40
other issue before as well which is if
48:42
you believe the stock market is fairly valued
48:44
you have to believe that prices are right
48:47
that be burnings or right right sook as a
48:49
it's attack to leave it all boils down to the per price
48:51
earnings ratio the snp five hundred
48:53
and
48:55
i'm going to still maintain that the he
48:57
is wrong
48:58
earnings around for most of these companies
49:00
so let let y
49:02
one is that when these companies start
49:05
to report their quarterly earnings starting
49:07
in the next few days
49:09
the year over year comparison is going
49:11
to be to the numbers that they posted
49:14
in to to of twenty twenty one
49:16
which by all accounts was a blowout number
49:19
why because the number before that was
49:21
twenty twenty what services was the right
49:24
so you have these incredibly
49:26
tough hot in terms of
49:28
growth percentages that you have to reach which
49:30
i don't think are achievable
49:32
that
49:34
everybody's costs of making
49:36
and selling things is going up with stands
49:38
to reason that unless you raise prices quickly
49:40
enough your profits will go down
49:43
third if you actually do business outside
49:45
of the united states the us dollar has rallied
49:47
so much that you actually
49:49
have lessons on that you're making these other
49:51
countries when you convert them and bring them back to the united
49:53
states now most people look through that
49:55
last issue the point is if
49:57
you add this all up there is a reason
49:59
the probability that the
50:02
all be he's are wrong
50:04
in which case we have to
50:06
reassess with the right he should be
50:08
in which case what is the right peace yes
50:10
and earnings are a function of what you spend a what
50:12
you make so that's why we see so many
50:15
companies to in laos cutting people a
50:17
microsoft google everybody is now
50:20
putting people on a node actor
50:22
therefore i'm they're i'm they're they're white
50:24
collar labor but they're hiring you know blue
50:26
collar labor faster and so you know
50:28
we're actually going to see it down to can productivity
50:31
right you're replacing a person that you
50:33
know may sit down at a desk and use a computer
50:35
eight to ten hours a day to do something but
50:37
you are hiring a lot of people that you
50:39
know may get paid by the hour or make it pay to you
50:41
know fixed salary if you do the right kind of
50:43
work but a that
50:46
qualifies as as more contractual blue
50:48
collar labor
50:49
the difference in that is a productivity difference ultimately
50:52
and just everybody knows pete for p
50:54
his price earning ratios overtime here's
50:56
a quick chart for you currently this
50:59
is where the snp five hundred
51:01
we are currently twenty
51:04
or south and
51:06
we have twice in our lifetime kind
51:08
of hit that's in a thirteen fourteen fifteen
51:11
level so we could have a twenty five
51:13
percent correction from here in the stock market
51:16
if you look at the high
51:19
our recent high in december
51:22
twenty twenty were a thirty eight price earnings
51:24
ratio some we've fallen
51:26
from thirty eight down to twenty
51:29
you know almost in half and we
51:31
could so good and twenty five percent from
51:33
here in that would
51:35
ugly not even set a new record that would just
51:38
the last two crises we had the thing
51:40
that system that the thing that i think will work
51:42
against this happening jason so yeah you're right
51:44
though
51:45
maybe it goes to three thousand or thirty two hundred
51:48
what if you look again
51:50
today you know and what what i mean by like
51:52
the market has roughly seeking the sauce like the size
51:54
of the markets right now as we as we talk
51:56
are
51:57
they are essentially down have a point
51:59
you know the the as appears down
52:02
no twelve points
52:04
it means that they're looking for
52:06
any and all reasons the
52:08
say this is a solved problem move
52:10
on nothing to see now
52:13
that is a psychological reaction those
52:16
the that if you actually i i called a friend today
52:18
and i said where the flows then
52:20
he said you know retail right now is
52:22
where all the flows are meaning it's retail
52:25
that buying their in the thirty or thirty
52:27
fifth percentile of where they normally by
52:29
which is a pretty healthy signal
52:31
the explain what you mean
52:33
my hope the way the market most basically
52:35
is your buyers and sellers and
52:38
me know to to make it really really simple you
52:40
have hedge funds as one
52:42
class a buyer you are you
52:44
at each yes but then
52:46
they're not really daisy i defines yeah yeah but
52:48
they have six strategies and so you know their hedging
52:51
their moving but whatever
52:52
then you have written
52:53
okay so it's retail and hatch those are the
52:56
two main pockets of of where the flows
52:58
come into the stock market from and
53:01
you can get a real sense of what's happening
53:03
what the psychology of the market is if
53:06
you see what those closer
53:08
right now what we see is a
53:10
hedge funds are largely on the sidelines
53:13
they needs is they are they've
53:16
been so battered and bruised in some ways
53:18
i think they're licking their wounds there
53:20
must be waiting there they do not
53:22
find a compelling reason to buy
53:25
right but they have what i at some point
53:27
rights from office is their business know
53:29
about it didn't get mine other opportunities
53:32
are at their businesses to make money relative
53:34
to their index sense of their index gets towards
53:36
they doing nothing makes him look like jesus
53:39
the so they don't necessarily have to buy at any
53:42
point they just need to make money as mbs
53:45
right now we're in a situation where the markets
53:47
are looking for a direction
53:49
retail seems to think that direction serbia
53:52
hedge funds don't have an opinion are
53:54
saying we're just gonna wait this thing out okay
53:57
meanwhile the data the had that
53:59
is
53:59
the
54:00
and i think that's that's attention we have right
54:03
now the stock market is the
54:05
psychological desires for this thing to
54:07
be over meaning i think
54:09
people want to here inflation
54:11
is done we're starting the recession
54:14
there were three or four quarters will be out here's
54:16
a steady cd interest rates let's go attack people
54:18
want to accept the reality freiburg does that
54:20
mean that were bouncing along the bottom for the next
54:23
year and the misses the time or the
54:25
opportunity
54:26
the buyer want to give financial advice but what
54:28
are your thoughts
54:29
hydrant and retailer kind of waiting in the way
54:31
i'm the me as the stock market is that a bottom they
54:34
are we bouncing along the bottom yes or
54:36
what would you how would you describe the next year if
54:39
he were to look at what do you think i'll tell you guys
54:41
some stories i went to a conference
54:43
in march
54:45
with a lot of fund
54:47
managers probably managers several trillion
54:49
dollars in total
54:51
people were like in shock and awe at
54:53
that conference because they had taken such significant
54:56
write downs and they were still getting written
54:58
down so all their investments were off
55:00
they were forty percent in the p they
55:02
were forced to now things are collapsing no
55:05
one was doing anything they were all sit on the
55:07
sidelines hanging out waiting i
55:10
want to a conference last we add to the tone
55:12
a misdemeanor was default morals
55:15
last week i went to a conference with a lot of
55:17
managers there probably managing
55:19
trillions of dollars across the pool
55:21
than
55:23
people were just kinda b had accepted this
55:25
new reality and they were kind of willing
55:28
to look at new things and you
55:30
know they were no longer engaged in trying to shore
55:32
up to their portfolio and lot
55:34
of the stuff we talk about which i think tactical
55:36
on the ground how do we deal with our businesses and
55:38
our portfolios investments that we actively
55:41
work with
55:42
the private market
55:43
they were much more interested in kind of starting to explore
55:46
and think about new thanks and i hadn't seen
55:48
that three months ago
55:49
that might have a positive sign a market
55:51
participant point of here i
55:53
think that folks are kind of college accepted
55:56
a new normal an inflationary normal
55:58
a high bar activity i've
56:01
normal ah you know a normal
56:03
of uncertainty a normal of kind of recessive
56:06
and , people have started to kind of internalized
56:09
that new normal i think they're now starting
56:11
to say okay what's in my accent plan b
56:14
and that action plan is i've got trillions
56:16
of dollars in capital city on the sidelines what
56:18
should i start to do with it
56:19
though you might might very very
56:22
very anecdotal experience
56:24
has been that significant market
56:26
participants i think are going to start to park their
56:28
head up this corner the answer to think
56:30
about doing you face what that translates
56:33
into in terms of you know stock price
56:35
movements and indices i don't know i've always
56:37
said that there's going to be a huge variation in our
56:39
times during the school this year
56:42
and some industries some sectors some
56:45
hide the businesses will outperform others
56:47
and so i don't want to create generalize statements about
56:49
indices but i do think that's capital
56:51
activity is gonna start to come back with corner
56:54
where people just have to think about what to do rather than
56:56
pull everything out because of the massive shift has
56:58
happened in the past several quarters
57:00
that very you as a market participants
57:03
thinking you're looking at series
57:05
days maybe doing some
57:07
opportunistic a flat rounds
57:09
are you looking at
57:11
the start of market midstage market
57:13
and saying hey this is an opportunity maybe i
57:15
should start looking to put some money to
57:17
work in the next six to twelve months or
57:20
are you were so i'm busting you're selling
57:22
my first year as a marker participate you're investing
57:24
whatever nothing by we see that
57:26
the piece of the over here slowed way down because
57:28
founders know that valuations have gone down
57:31
the summer is a environments tougher so plosser
57:33
there is every nine months now they know
57:35
this might be raising at once for two years though
57:38
the pace as slowed way down that's
57:40
a good thing in is
57:42
healthy and more itself area some more
57:44
normalized the
57:46
last year companies
57:49
i could raise did raise their be a whore chest so
57:51
i think this can be a delay it's stuff we a store
57:53
period we've done a couple of growth deals recently
57:56
i think the fact that tiger and the
57:58
other hand across that's what the fact they pull
58:01
back way back from that
58:03
your markets gives smaller firms like
58:05
us off to growth the also how did
58:07
you make the decision to invest
58:09
in those companies they're both companies have known for long
58:11
time of one or two daughters for a while so you
58:14
know the the opportunity arose to
58:16
invest fans it was way less competitive
58:18
than it would have been since last call opportunistic
58:21
you you near the from you have confidence
58:23
in them and easy money
58:26
we bases on to deals and last
58:28
like four months that what
58:30
was your pace let's say eighteen
58:32
months ago there's off as
58:34
much prefer more the old deals
58:36
happening
58:37
interesting
58:39
if you want to think about tail risk where there is
58:41
some of them that and massively
58:43
shifts the market you know that be indices
58:46
south right make them go negative and everyone
58:48
hold money out of equities are are out of thorns
58:51
further
58:52
there are some of those events brewing
58:54
right we talked about the consumer cry one
58:56
where as we thought maybe taiwan's
58:59
maybe this emerging market
59:01
crisis that crisis that that kind of the emerging
59:04
either like little turtles putting their heads off
59:06
the mean at some out but there's another
59:08
be turtles now you know pacifically
59:11
knew that you know there's still reason
59:13
to be wary whereas men alone a black
59:15
swan event which is the not define
59:17
orange and black swans either julia like the
59:19
significance and own recess
59:22
user node known but significant risks
59:24
right now and if any of them to
59:26
kind of take off
59:28
yeah we're already in a very shaky
59:30
kind of period right now we're trying to manage inflation
59:32
and recession there you know
59:34
businesses are trying to raise capital and
59:36
again this is why a lot of biotech companies are trading
59:38
blow cast because the expectation of they're
59:40
not in be able to raise capital i mean any
59:42
want to go out of business is absolutely
59:44
delighted that are soft boom you
59:47
know you start to see things still so i think that's the
59:49
reason people investors
59:51
portfolio managers are not and i kind of
59:53
rushed back into putting more money
59:56
into equities is just sitting around wins
59:58
his last year the since dissolve
1:00:00
an era before graduating out there are
1:00:02
companies that do not face the risk of ruining just
1:00:04
are sitting on so much cash they have so much revenue
1:00:06
that there's no chance of that he i've always said it doesn't
1:00:09
matter if you find a great business and
1:00:11
you believe in that business over the very long
1:00:13
run you don't need to worry about
1:00:15
timing them as it you put money
1:00:17
in that business long as you get a for evaluation
1:00:20
for it today relative to what it should be priced at
1:00:22
a somewhat marches are telling y twenty p
1:00:24
would be more than fair has anybody who knows
1:00:26
but like whatever that and whatever that is but if you find a great
1:00:29
business that you think's gonna compounds value
1:00:31
for you over the very long
1:00:33
run markets opened a man
1:00:35
the long run you mean a decade
1:00:37
call it a decade and you know sites and business
1:00:39
and he's invested in either side companies
1:00:41
that i don't think they're pointing to go public next year
1:00:44
he's making on investment in a business that he considered
1:00:46
to be a great business the can count on value not
1:00:49
not hometown valuation the
1:00:51
compound business value meaning
1:00:53
they can do something more valuable next year
1:00:55
than they were doing this year and continue to accrue
1:00:58
an advantage in their business that allows
1:01:00
them to accumulate earnings overtime or tonight
1:01:02
revenue that ultimately translates into earnings overtime
1:01:04
and are many businesses republic that that operate
1:01:07
like that that regardless of any of these turtles
1:01:09
popping their head out those businesses will perform
1:01:11
well over the next decade and i think you
1:01:14
know that's always a great place to invest service
1:01:16
and we basically went from d day saving
1:01:18
private ryan and seen you know
1:01:20
and the first quarter to now people are accepted
1:01:23
were more time and we're not shell shocked and
1:01:25
from people are looking for opportunities
1:01:27
jamal be found an opportunity maybe to talk about the
1:01:29
deal he did this
1:01:32
you know i didn't agree with free burke i mean you find these
1:01:34
businesses that you like and if they appeal to you and
1:01:36
you do your work that's the most important
1:01:39
can be afraid to write a check
1:01:41
the new stopper their to say define what you
1:01:43
mean by do the work because everybody here to say
1:01:46
that what does that mean for an investor
1:01:48
for somebody like yourself what is doing the work me he
1:01:50
really depends on the sector so for example one
1:01:52
you know one
1:01:54
when we were when
1:01:56
i was trying to underwrite open door when
1:01:58
i really wanted to understand was
1:02:00
you know what to take rates look like in
1:02:02
all these various markets will how do i think
1:02:04
take weights will evolve hear how to value added
1:02:06
services work was and a margins can use
1:02:08
saints what does the sensitivity
1:02:10
of different parts of the real estate economy
1:02:13
to interest rates in oh that's an example
1:02:15
of work when i was underwriting so five
1:02:18
you know what you're trying to understand is you
1:02:20
know how to banks generates adding net increase
1:02:23
income you know name
1:02:24
how does that change over time how does bank
1:02:26
charters change that i'm
1:02:29
in ohio last rates change in in
1:02:31
the times
1:02:33
the economic expansion vs
1:02:35
recessions how do you price all of that into a fair
1:02:37
share value of a business
1:02:39
this a lot of really
1:02:41
detailed diligence to understand
1:02:44
all the facets or as many of the facets
1:02:46
as possible of a business that allied have a clear
1:02:49
hi sense of what's possible then there
1:02:51
are others
1:02:52
which your pure technology bats
1:02:55
where you try to understand
1:02:57
either biology the
1:03:00
technology so in the case of a deal that i did
1:03:03
in out today or this past week myself
1:03:07
much a family offices around the world
1:03:11
led by a great chairman pablo like
1:03:13
reddit who started a phenomenal business called
1:03:15
royalty farmer which is public i
1:03:17
was when the bunch of folks we put
1:03:19
in about half a billion dollars to
1:03:23
the help advance into you know clinical
1:03:27
trials this business that's trying to
1:03:29
provide a solution to chronic kidney disease
1:03:31
so in that example of us lot
1:03:33
of scientific diligence on
1:03:36
what are the existing solutions how did
1:03:38
they work what is the mechanism of action inside
1:03:40
the body how
1:03:42
is this the same or different what
1:03:44
, the early data say how
1:03:47
are the clinical trials structured
1:03:49
and then you come to an answer me this
1:03:51
case this decided that was worth taking and
1:03:53
the like reynosa name of the company and
1:03:56
what they do the company called probe sydney
1:03:58
and basically the idea
1:04:00
that it uses your own body to
1:04:02
help heal your kidneys if you are on the verge
1:04:04
of chronic kidney disease or you are getting dialysis
1:04:07
etc essentially
1:04:09
how much is it removes cells
1:04:11
from your body
1:04:12
from your kidney actually and
1:04:15
then it does
1:04:16
basically put it into centrifuge does some specific
1:04:19
things to it grows and amplifies certain
1:04:21
cell lines from your kidney and and rejects
1:04:23
those back into kidney and hi
1:04:26
to improve what's called your it easier
1:04:28
for which is your estimated claw
1:04:30
miller filtration rate which is essentially
1:04:34
the number that weaken used to estimate
1:04:36
how efficient your kidneys or and essentially when
1:04:38
you are you know what type two diabetic
1:04:41
or you have chronic kidney disease or kidney failure
1:04:43
or you're on dialysis it's because that
1:04:45
filtration capability has sailed
1:04:48
so all these toxins are getting pushed back into
1:04:51
by
1:04:53
oh yeah we took a minnow half billion dollar
1:04:56
shot every one hundred and twenty five million dollar check i
1:04:58
hope that works at a message freiburg
1:05:00
we saw some satellite images this week
1:05:03
biden
1:05:03
if announced them they looked pretty trippy
1:05:06
explain to us what do you
1:05:08
downstream effect of what
1:05:10
is i think the them most
1:05:12
clear picture were seeing
1:05:14
the
1:05:15
the cosmos ever created and
1:05:17
what i could actually do for humanity
1:05:19
with one another to do with fight and
1:05:21
fat com of into a sword
1:05:24
fighting showed it on monday isis the subtle and
1:05:26
he made and heat daily specifically had
1:05:28
him sherry which i think
1:05:30
maybe they were looking for a many when or something good
1:05:32
for him i'm has he has nothing to
1:05:34
do with this program i'm i i don't
1:05:36
mean i just mean that like scientists and
1:05:38
engineers their work on this for many are and a yup
1:05:40
deserve all the frigging credit
1:05:42
the james webb telescope is a space
1:05:44
telescope just like the hobbles right never
1:05:46
the hubble space telescope and this is a massive
1:05:48
improvement over the hero to
1:05:51
imagine you're you're in a boat and you're trying to look
1:05:53
at the bottom of the ocean you take a bunch of innocuous pair
1:05:55
of binoculars you look into the ocean inside
1:05:57
see what's at the bottom of the are some how hard that would
1:05:59
be right there's all this murky stuff in the water
1:06:02
to be really hard to see it the that
1:06:04
the reason that we create a space telescope is
1:06:06
a that the same problem that we would have looking
1:06:08
at a telescope through the earth's atmosphere
1:06:10
doesn't impact the light coming into the telescope
1:06:13
and so there's so much stuff in the atmosphere
1:06:15
writers miles of pop molecules
1:06:17
in durban south moving around so my
1:06:20
putting a telescope in space we get rid of all
1:06:22
that murkiness and now we can really capture
1:06:24
the line coming from far far
1:06:26
away concentrate that like and
1:06:28
to really sensitive photo detectors
1:06:31
these are photo detectors that operates as
1:06:33
merely the the coldest
1:06:36
point in the universe negative two hundred and sixty
1:06:38
three calvin and
1:06:40
and that photo detector makes it extremely sensitive
1:06:43
and using a twenty foot wide mirror
1:06:45
we can capture all the life has come again
1:06:48
concentrate on to the photo detector and
1:06:50
and and breathe that white arm and
1:06:52
so why is this important why is this interesting
1:06:55
will people get really excited by and flip
1:06:57
out over the cool imagery that they see these
1:06:59
images is colorful images of galaxies
1:07:02
and start far far away what we're really
1:07:04
doing is we're not as looking far away we're looking
1:07:06
back in time so these are
1:07:08
these images come to us from galaxy
1:07:11
that a four point six billion light years away
1:07:13
there would have four point six billion years for
1:07:15
that lights are reach our planet and we're
1:07:17
actually seeing what happened in the earlier part
1:07:20
of the universe and we're seeing how these are
1:07:22
galaxies
1:07:23
for and how they're moving how to
1:07:25
interact with one another have a plan scientists interact
1:07:27
with one another
1:07:28
what a lot of people miss as i think the most important
1:07:30
in to highlight as an astrophysicist
1:07:33
when you're looking for new telescopes and adamant
1:07:35
telescope state are you not looking for imagery like
1:07:37
we looked at today that's really good to sell the
1:07:39
stores in defining to do a press conference really
1:07:42
looking at affected us out of better
1:07:44
grass is are you know as
1:07:46
it showed for every wavelength of light across
1:07:48
some spectrum what the intensity as
1:07:51
of that that amount of like that that wavelength of light
1:07:53
and particularly the james
1:07:55
webb telescope has incredible
1:07:57
micro center raise and incredible sensitive
1:07:59
that allowed us to go for near infrared infrared
1:08:02
and some visible light and look at that
1:08:04
spectrograph
1:08:05
why that important he did it you can
1:08:07
capture the spectrograph in a very high
1:08:09
resolution way for a son
1:08:11
or for a planet far away he could
1:08:13
tell you very specifically with the movement
1:08:15
is and what the chemical composition
1:08:17
is of that object
1:08:19
from that we can start to do incredible
1:08:21
research and in for very important
1:08:24
things about how planets form
1:08:26
hostile form of how many places like
1:08:28
earth might be out there how things are moving
1:08:30
how much mass or matter there is
1:08:33
in the universe and are two very
1:08:35
very big question questionable
1:08:37
phenomenon in astrophysics right now
1:08:39
one is called dark energy one called dark matter
1:08:42
turns out the majority of matter and universes
1:08:44
undetectable
1:08:45
there also is this really
1:08:47
weird energy forth switching
1:08:50
on everything in the universe causing
1:08:52
universe to accelerate it's expansion
1:08:55
so the universe is expanding everything's moving away
1:08:57
from itself but it's not it's expanding and slowing
1:08:59
down it's expanding and speeding up you're
1:09:01
having this sort of instruments in space that
1:09:03
allows us to capture in a very high resolution
1:09:06
way using spectroscopy another
1:09:08
tool that astrophysicists is and better
1:09:10
map out how this is happening in different parts
1:09:12
of the universe starts to give us a better
1:09:15
says and allows us to kind
1:09:17
of enquirer and start to develop
1:09:19
theory the run what's really going on and i want
1:09:21
to say one more thing could put a lot of people think that
1:09:23
this stuff is so esoteric and it's like super
1:09:25
into say why we couldn't handle a northerner
1:09:28
most applied engineering
1:09:30
and technology that we've developed as a species
1:09:33
started out initially of pure research
1:09:35
with no freaking clue where was going to go to imaging
1:09:39
dna penicillin electronics
1:09:42
samurai machines so many of these
1:09:44
capabilities evolved from scientists to
1:09:46
query in the universe and asking questions
1:09:49
and gathering data and all of a suddenly came
1:09:51
across some things developed a series
1:09:53
built an application of that theory and a
1:09:55
technology emerged that saints
1:09:57
the course of our history as a species
1:10:00
that's the reason to do pure research
1:10:02
and that's the reason it's so important
1:10:04
for us to put ten billion dollars into a program
1:10:06
like this we're going to discover amazing
1:10:08
things with this tool and it will
1:10:11
ultimately hopefully yields advances
1:10:13
for humankind that we cannot even contemplate tonight
1:10:15
so be energy right i mean understanding
1:10:17
dark matter and energy totally
1:10:20
enemy has changed everything and energy read
1:10:22
about it one day there might be a capability
1:10:24
where we say there's say new class of matter and
1:10:26
matter new understanding of energy that weekend
1:10:28
and apply in some form of physics on earth
1:10:31
that we could do something interesting with and we have to be
1:10:33
able to query and understand the university that
1:10:36
we measure their way that we measured the matter
1:10:38
from your a this is yours
1:10:40
got access and i mean the hubble telescope
1:10:43
keep up with correct me if i'm around here is
1:10:45
my alma mater say says
1:10:48
how much dark matter incinerators jamaat
1:10:50
incinerators lot you're full of it from
1:10:53
what we now know the emmy to hobble told us
1:10:55
the rate of expansion of the universe
1:10:57
and it also tells us the age of the universe and we found
1:10:59
all this other planets told to free
1:11:01
birds point about you know looking
1:11:03
you know through that through the muddy water
1:11:06
there's a great visualization on the last
1:11:08
you have hop on the right you don't have were
1:11:10
beautiful said if you slide as you can just see like
1:11:13
just how crystal clear and these images are
1:11:15
and from my understanding we found
1:11:17
some number of universes
1:11:20
already that we didn't know just from the first images
1:11:22
by the way i wanted to give everyone a heads up this imagery
1:11:24
looks beautiful and i'm in up isn't that a big
1:11:27
one i'll put it behind my frigging death care because i think
1:11:29
it's so that i think after photography is one of my
1:11:31
that of all time favorite forms
1:11:34
of arts by com remember
1:11:36
this is imagery that was actually have sheriff
1:11:38
in near infrared an infrared spectrum
1:11:41
and then he converted it's a visible light to make it
1:11:43
look cool so remember that these images
1:11:45
you know that that these clouds you're actually there
1:11:47
don't actually look at like that fuller yard
1:11:50
and it's a very cool way to visualize the
1:11:52
density and of this know that will change and where
1:11:54
does this has enough for you in terms of
1:11:57
your excitement between
1:11:59
the new season
1:11:59
doctor who and a foundation
1:12:02
series if you let me let me just give you got
1:12:04
one more kind of
1:12:06
really everything is if you started our son
1:12:08
and you will get a sort of super bright if
1:12:11
you go at the speed of light for four minutes you reach
1:12:13
the earth or couple minutes to reach the earth looks our
1:12:15
six minutes or some sort of it it's look back and
1:12:17
now the some looks like it doesn't are dot if
1:12:19
you go for another couple minutes you
1:12:22
end up looking back from saturn and the sun starts
1:12:24
to look like a star i me
1:12:26
about how how damages now
1:12:28
imagine continuing to go the speed of light
1:12:30
for another hour you look back you'll hardly
1:12:33
be able to differentiate the sun from the rest of the universe
1:12:35
now visa for four point six billion years
1:12:38
then you're shooting away for four point six million years now
1:12:40
low fat how friggin hardwood of the
1:12:42
to see anything that's the technical
1:12:44
capability we just put into space we
1:12:47
built a twenty foot wide mirror
1:12:49
to concentrate the ones the so times
1:12:52
that travels a four point six billion years
1:12:54
loss all of their dead city lock all of that
1:12:56
you're completely devout completely diffuse
1:12:59
the capturing a few of them
1:13:01
one that concentrated way onto a detector
1:13:03
for minutes at a time and generate
1:13:06
the village
1:13:07
the profound or perfectly complex
1:13:09
the fifth at agenda
1:13:10
the complexity can ultimately yield other technological
1:13:14
tools that we could use in also says
1:13:16
i'm industry so i just i just
1:13:18
want however i posted a for you guys
1:13:20
are it's an incredible story the basically this
1:13:22
program was riddled with delays and
1:13:25
things that weren't working and and stay
1:13:27
put
1:13:28
quiet very assuming engineer
1:13:30
in charge of it and he completely turned the whole
1:13:32
thing around and
1:13:33
it's one of the most incredible closed what's his name
1:13:36
cmos outta his name is greg
1:13:38
robinson then he turned a
1:13:40
ten billion dollar debacle the
1:13:42
into a groundbreaking scientific mission this
1:13:44
is a quote from the wall street journal that
1:13:46
the quote from the nasa
1:13:49
the head of nasa's science
1:13:51
mission directorate thomas are broken says
1:13:53
it all
1:13:55
there's a huge distance between success and
1:13:57
failure and only a few options
1:13:59
the view from want to the other as he
1:14:02
said
1:14:03
greg robinson work such wonders
1:14:06
that his boss calls him quote the
1:14:08
most effective leader of a mission
1:14:10
i have ever seen in the history of nasa
1:14:12
and
1:14:14
really
1:14:15
this project he had eleven died
1:14:18
showers every brothers and this has been
1:14:20
going on for i guess twenty years now
1:14:22
this process of getting the skelton ten
1:14:25
years of really intense building what would
1:14:27
the next nemo will switch over to politics
1:14:29
were quick second zoe as we wrap up here freiburg
1:14:32
whoa what's the next how
1:14:34
are scope a because obviously
1:14:36
of we've gone hobble to web what
1:14:39
the next one conceivably look like him with
1:14:41
the timeline for that is there another one that's gonna com
1:14:43
and then what would that enable because it does
1:14:45
feel like if we accelerate this
1:14:47
women really get a deep understanding of
1:14:49
the universe it seems
1:14:52
to be accelerating our understanding cry
1:14:54
that are technologies obviously accelerating so
1:14:56
feel like we couldn't you know send another one of these out
1:14:58
next ten years that would dwarf this
1:15:00
one's capable yes or a lot of some
1:15:03
telescopes operate operate wavelengths
1:15:05
and they're meant the tide of proceed different miss
1:15:08
and so you know there have there are some telescopes
1:15:10
in are already operates in all in canada gamma rays
1:15:12
spectra
1:15:14
that really their third we i don't
1:15:16
know if we ever talked about the summer so but one of
1:15:18
the not really interesting areas of inquiries
1:15:21
is on his knees gravitational
1:15:23
waves detectors and there are new
1:15:25
more deaths versions of those system started to come
1:15:27
on my mother not space space telescopes
1:15:30
other and we can talk about that another time
1:15:32
on but they're creating
1:15:34
new methods of inquiries where we're not capturing
1:15:37
so taunts white coming from
1:15:39
faraway were actually capturing
1:15:42
the waves of gravity coming
1:15:44
from interactions of matter around
1:15:46
the universe and it's a new way to kind of observe the universe
1:15:48
know telescopes represent a new class of inquiries
1:15:51
that was just kind of you know discovered a few years ago
1:15:54
and proven out and and now there's there's a lot
1:15:56
more going on into that area ten free bird
1:15:58
you have something you want to give a sound idea
1:15:59
that you guys a photo of a new dog
1:16:02
i adopted last week her name is daisy
1:16:04
how we killed her out from virginia
1:16:07
the the is one of four thousand beagles
1:16:10
that were rescued
1:16:12
from a facility in virginia that was
1:16:14
shut down by the d o j the
1:16:16
facility was investigated by peta
1:16:18
and the humane society and they basically
1:16:21
shuffles facility down buses are in the united
1:16:23
states we only do animal
1:16:25
testing on beatles they're the only dogs that we do animal
1:16:27
testing on because they can put up with
1:16:29
pain and they have a high tolerance and i threshold
1:16:31
for pain it's a really awful fact
1:16:33
we need to change at the united states vs the eighth
1:16:36
does not provide guidance on us and pharma
1:16:38
companies pesticide companies major companies
1:16:40
very often test on diesel the
1:16:43
company on you know that was
1:16:45
operating the spiegel facilities in
1:16:47
virginia was shut down for i'm
1:16:49
you know ethical issues after
1:16:52
facility it
1:16:54
or the humane society or took control
1:16:56
of our the company called and vigo their parent
1:16:58
company is publicly traded i think that the fact
1:17:01
that we test on the beagles in this country awful
1:17:03
we adopted a the other four
1:17:05
thousand and beagles like easy available for adoption
1:17:08
i'll put some length and the show notes here people feel
1:17:10
free to go and grab them i'm sure
1:17:12
that long list is absolutely incredible
1:17:15
i think that it's awful we just on dogs in the country
1:17:18
and i say i urge anyone that has influence
1:17:20
of the of the a to get them to provide better
1:17:22
guidance is is not a lot a required and
1:17:24
they don't provide guidance
1:17:26
and co lot of companies de facto
1:17:28
a d falter testing on t lost when
1:17:30
they really don't need to and said i'm sorry bird let me ask
1:17:32
you the music wasn't earning it's incredible an adult
1:17:34
to the da the help of four thousand that adopted some
1:17:37
how should we do testing
1:17:40
totally i look i think that there's a system
1:17:42
is really important ethical lines here and we can debate
1:17:44
those this is a good nuance conversation
1:17:47
we use mouse models in biology to
1:17:49
explore solution for human disease
1:17:51
we we use primate models right which means
1:17:54
we the primates we use dogs
1:17:56
we use tax we use mammals
1:17:58
com
1:17:59
there it there
1:17:59
okay
1:18:00
obviously not necessary we
1:18:02
don't need to take be goals and poor
1:18:05
tons of kim kardashians me with makeup line
1:18:07
in their eyes to see what happens if not
1:18:09
required by law and it's not about getting
1:18:11
some pharmaceutical drug approved this is in
1:18:13
an area that i have you know i'm not going
1:18:15
to get into the debate on on exploring
1:18:18
and resolving kind of pharmaceutical solutions
1:18:20
and and things that can actually pretty human
1:18:22
disease where i'm particularly sensitive
1:18:24
to is one it's not needed and
1:18:26
when we're taking these animals and just doing awful
1:18:28
things to them saw when there's no law
1:18:30
that requires that we're not putting stuff in our bodies
1:18:33
and this isn't about i'm in of protecting
1:18:35
human it's really about cover your ass
1:18:37
behavior for make of companies and pesticide
1:18:39
company says they don't need to be doing and not
1:18:41
really what i'm addressing three thousand nine hundred
1:18:43
ninety nine beagles to go if
1:18:45
you adopt one of the spiegel send us a photo was
1:18:47
sarah at the end of next week
1:18:49
programmed excellent me say that guys it's really know
1:18:52
either make a good set of room for an and how we
1:18:54
treat
1:18:55
dogs who are connected to humans
1:18:57
in a very special way i think speaks volumes to
1:18:59
us as individuals
1:19:02
that would you like to well
1:19:04
on the by the amish ration talk about twenty twenty two
1:19:06
or give us an update on ukraine i give you the choices
1:19:09
green is my elder abuse this point
1:19:12
you're gonna try
1:19:16
a few questions or canada you're trying to trying
1:19:18
me up here but like but like say is my
1:19:20
point one percent i don't want to beat a dead horse before
1:19:22
i can i read you guys something and you can tell me
1:19:24
there were these and
1:19:27
there's a there's a group called committee
1:19:29
to unleash prosperity
1:19:31
the to researchers stephen moore and john
1:19:33
decker this is in the wall street journal article i personally
1:19:35
good the peers studied the resumes
1:19:38
a sixty eight top executive branch
1:19:40
officials the worksheet the
1:19:42
economy from president biden in treasury secretary
1:19:44
janet yellen to white house special assistance on
1:19:46
economic policy
1:19:49
the average business experience of
1:19:51
biden appointees he's
1:19:53
only two point four years
1:19:55
like
1:19:56
any fresh faced twenty five year old on wall
1:19:58
street has clocked me the private business
1:20:00
hours again i'm reading from the journal
1:20:03
article the most of washington's top
1:20:05
officials
1:20:06
he did you to percent have quote virtually
1:20:08
no business experience and and
1:20:10
we can at home the average donald trump's
1:20:12
cabinet officials had thirteen years of experience
1:20:15
in the private economy the author says what a disaster
1:20:18
wasn't i sixty three percent democrats
1:20:20
want to get rid of biden that i want him to run again
1:20:22
i've never seen a president
1:20:24
ben the affected on been turned
1:20:26
on my his own party so quickly internet
1:20:29
ministries you need to take that ownership of the democratic
1:20:31
party which media has to take it back to the
1:20:33
center and he needs to have a wholesale
1:20:36
replacement cause the team
1:20:39
that he works if on domestic policy
1:20:41
it's not working and remarked that was
1:20:43
his pitch widow back to normal say he was
1:20:45
gonna be a you know more of a centrist
1:20:47
and that's not what we've gotten but of course he
1:20:49
was handed the disastrous economy that trump
1:20:52
created why do you say he was handed a disastrous
1:20:54
economy person because of our cove it and
1:20:56
because of the massive stimulus that we spent
1:20:59
those students i
1:21:01
was like a set up a bit of trouble on a second
1:21:03
be they would be much different if trump is running
1:21:05
that the economy with a setup was there for
1:21:07
probably to spend more money right trump wanna spend more money
1:21:10
that's a really
1:21:12
good question as you have to think too that that's
1:21:14
a really good question let's move on what's the update on ukraine
1:21:16
there's a really of success game day on right now where
1:21:18
the russians are slowing
1:21:20
the flow of gas
1:21:22
the owner of i didn't i spent another
1:21:24
the shutdown nord stream one for
1:21:26
their annual maintenance
1:21:29
ross said supposed to be
1:21:31
back supposed by july twenty first and
1:21:34
so the real question is what happens
1:21:36
question
1:21:37
potent hand checks europe and just
1:21:39
takes an extra day or two to get that thing back
1:21:41
up and going is ernest
1:21:44
it predicts or i think the western allies
1:21:46
skyn a fracture com this winner yet germany
1:21:48
scary be freezing the germans are not going
1:21:50
to take this well when they can put the heat on listen
1:21:53
a foreign policy based on virtue signaling
1:21:55
is one thing when you're economy is
1:21:57
good the and you're
1:21:59
not
1:21:59
read about your energy
1:22:02
security and you can see your
1:22:04
homes is another thing to have a foreign
1:22:06
policy based on virtue signaling when you're economies
1:22:08
and resistance yeah runaway inflation
1:22:11
and you're in the winter and you can
1:22:13
hear a homes you more as change real
1:22:15
quick don't s three or four months
1:22:17
ago that liberal interventionists were triumphant
1:22:20
about this ukraine war two
1:22:22
or three big productions one that ukraine
1:22:24
was gonna
1:22:25
when
1:22:26
look what ukraine was wearing the first couple weeks but now
1:22:28
it looks like russia has one does donbass
1:22:30
region number two they
1:22:33
predicted that we were collapse the russian economy
1:22:35
with all the sanctions the opposite happened
1:22:38
with gloucester own economy anniversary
1:22:40
they predicted this would strengthen the western alliance
1:22:42
that's the only car that as and he
1:22:45
basically turned yeah then i think it will
1:22:47
this this winter i think you're gonna see serious
1:22:50
opposition to the way the by the
1:22:52
most recent has led the was
1:22:54
there
1:22:55
the response i think it's well said that
1:22:57
if germany has the
1:22:59
yeah blinds as sri lanka had you
1:23:02
would see a definite fracturing of how
1:23:04
people look at it just like they slipped last week
1:23:06
and they made natural gas and nukes
1:23:08
ah nuclear power a green energy
1:23:11
so yeah their morals and ethics and
1:23:13
virtue signaling i go as far as
1:23:16
their wallets and their heat and meals
1:23:18
go as we all know this is a bit another amazing episode
1:23:21
of the all and podcasts are the baron of
