it was part of the transportation sector. the transports not being able to keep up with the record rally we have seen. >> it also seems like a classic cycle of overcapacity, cutting capacity, with airlines. i love car sales, best number in years. , but it is a car great to see people buying cars. real estate, the numbers have in solid. maybe we are getting signs of an economic rebound. alix: factory orders down in april, but it was the inventory that it out. jpmorgan had a note out saying that there is a downside risk forecast.e 2% gdp there were better manufacturing signs, but this report made them rethink it and think that the trends are weaker, if we are not

4:03 pm
take a look at the greece national bank and all the money that they oh, we are looking at 99 billion euros. that is not the chart their. -- there. that chart is how much we have seen -- this is the chart. those --ow much grease owes creditors. a majority goes to germany. they could make that argument, if you do not bail out greece, you do not get paid back germany. >> obviously, that is a big concern, if greece default people lose money. but their armor cards -- more cards to play. if you default on a bank, then you start to get a contagion
4:04 pm
effect. germany does not want to lose the money it has lent, but it could take the hit. ultimately, this will be a political decision. it won't be about the money, it will be about merkel and other leaders saying, do we want to take a move that would peel back the project that they have been working on so long? i would guess the answer is no. but ultimately, it is about politics. alix: and now this other chart. this is 2012. this is all over and mainstream media, 350 mentioned in may alone. , a chiefined by carl u.s. economist. and michael.
4:05 pm
your thoughts go back and forth, can germany take the hit, i'm thinking greece has the power. do you guys think -- what do you guys think? >> it is germany's benefit in the long run to have these week eak members. if they need to relax rules, it is well worth it. here is the reason. imagine the strength of the deutsche mark if germany was on their own. they have low budget deficits and a strong position. they would be in the same boat as switzerland with strong currency. they do not like, politically it is not a popular thing for them to help these smaller members, it gives them a weaker matters in export powerhouse like germany. >> it is the cost of membership in a club.
4:06 pm
alix: where you laughing at carl -- were you laughing at carl? >> no, my response is similar. germany does not have to go to the deutsche mark. weak euro, soless i think most smart people do not t whatthat this grexi happened. they think they will come up with a deal. there is a decent chance that , this in charge will say may not be the right thing to do. it is possible that greece could exit. >> so greece and the overall world economy is something that someone brought up in a speech today. value to watchful waiting. clarifiestional data

4:08 pm
-- when dudley gives remarks and he will have the benefit of the report. -- seeing that report. michael, you had to put money to work. how do you deal with that when we have a fed speak, this is what makes carl crazy? >> or every half-hour a greece headline. you have this back and the the real impact of whether trees stays or leaves. -- greece stays or leaves. for real-world people come up you up and the markets are prepared for it. i think you would end up with a market reaction, but not one -- would be and when you talk about the economy, we are getting right now indications of things like
4:09 pm
the jpmorgan thing you talked about. people who said that the economy was not low enough. people have them prepared for crummy earnings in the next quarter. these may not be the fellow. we might be surprised to the upside in the next quarter, because pessimism is rampant. fed just said that it may be september when they do it, if they go ahead and do that the market will probably say one and done makes sense. the market has been a lot of little kids in respect to the fed, not listening to the adult in the room. they say we will do it, but not do anything after that. i think that will happen in september. alix: we actually have breaking

about potential stock market -- a potential stock market bubble? some are confident that the bull market will run on. that the ratio is higher than the historical average, but i think that a higher pe ratio is fully justified in a world of record low interest rates. even when the fed raises them, they will remain low on the historical standard. in my estimation and my colleagues at wharton, a lower discount rate means a higher average valuation for the stock market, so i certainly don't believe that this is overvalued at current levels. >> that is a key point, at what fundsre do you think the

will peak once the federal reserve is at the apex of the tightening cycle? , one belief is, and here of the rare times i agree with the bill gross, we haven't disagreed over the last 5-6 years, but he named the new at 2%, fed funds rate and my own populations confirmed that. rate oververage fund the next decade will remain at 2%. it does not mean that at the peak of tightening it will not be above 2%, it could get to 3-4%. but then it will be brought down below 2%. that is when the economy softens. we will have a lower average level of interest rates, rates coulde fed peak above 2%. but it will not be the 4% that dock,w the fed has in its
4:24 pm
that it puts out every quarter in protection. valuation, is there a range that has you concerned? >> my feeling is if we get , 22 or 23, we are at a rich valuation. in perspective, the stock market got to 30 price-to-earnings ratio in 2000 and that was a. of higher interest rates. that was a clear overvaluation in the market. in 2000.s bearish those levels were not justified. 18-20 as thely see new normal valuation in the market, rather than 15-16, which has been the valuation during most of the postwar. . professor, goldman sachs has
4:25 pm
quoted you in the past years and have looked at different asset and came to the conclusion that on a percentile basis, stocks look overvalued, but other things look more overvalued, like 10 year chad -- treasuries, volatility, would you agree with that? >> the question is on bond. interest rates will rise. with the 10 year, now a little 3.5above 2%, it could go to and probably that is the new normal for 10 years. that corresponds to about a 1.5 point above bonds, and has been a term spread there, historically. bonds are much more expensive than stocks, but my feeling is,
4:26 pm
my cancellation say that the 10 gets to 3.5, that will impose losses on bondholders, but stopped at that level should be valued at 18-20, 3.5% over the 10 year treasury rate. bonds are more overvalued than stocks, i don't think that stocks are overvalued, they are fairly valued within the new reality of lower growth and slower inflation that the u.s. economy will experience in the next 10 years. that was a very passionate professor spiegel. have a good day everybody. ♪ .
