begin. it is a high-yield rally. >> i am worried about a high-yield rally. it is a little overdone. if you look at the index, which has moved something like 13 points since a very 11, you have to -- february 11, you have to wonder what is in it. yield look at the 7.5% and you say, that looks attractive relative to zero ,nterest rates glop -- broadly you can look at negative interest rates, and treasuries, that is appealing. but then you see there is not many components of the trade at the level of the index trade. what is comprised of is a number 5% of all, 4% or sorts of risk because it goes up. for individual credit, volume. at the other end, things are trading 15% or 20% which is more theoretical because people know they are not going to be paying

15%. eric: what will shut the rally down? joshua: the pullback seems to be driven by flows these days. you can track them pretty closely with respect to mutual funds and eds. eric: what we saw in january and february was pretty much liquidity issues. it was a buyers strike. what will motivate buyers to go on strike ? joshua: you have 5 billion of outflows. we will monitor the outflow structure, it was very different prior to the financial crisis. precrisis you had 10% of the market existing of daily liquidity and etf funds. that is now a quarter of the market figure. that event, you had investment banks and other traders regulating bankers who are making markets and posing a lot of inventory and making a

smooth. today you have got almost four times as many dollars held by mutual funds and atms, and if they get a redemption, they have to sell. you have a lot less capital being devoted to market making, so the price volatility gets driven by flows. eric: so a firm like yours was built to invest in markets like these. what about these usual funds? joshua: the model has created a greater mismatch of that. if they are interested in doing credit investing, i have probably seen at any time in my career since 1990. eric: you have been running since 1990, and then the address before. joshua: it is about liquidity. i read a statistic of over 30% of the high-yield market were names that had not traded at all this year. percentage, a larger

percentage have not traded in the last month. equation ifetty bad your a mutual fund manager and suddenly you have to reorient your portfolio because you have redemptions, or you have to go by things. eric: does that mean we will see more third avenues? i think it is possible. you'll get securities that are completely disentangled with credit quality. it will have little to do with credit quality and more with flows. eric: so what do you see now? bifurcationribe the of the high-yield market to those prices? are they credit fundamentals, strong or weak? joshua: it is a strange mix of things that are trading too tight and things that will not get paid off. the whole composition of the market, realize what growth is. you have to go back a little bit. you have got many, many people

with fixed incomes we used to put money in bond funds and expect to get a yield from those and would live off of them. in a kind of a market, it is not surprising money would flow into high-yield funds because nothing else has any other yields. and within those high-yield funds, that encouraged issuers to have that money to borrow, and particularly that lower grade issuers periods of the partsion of the triple c of the market, people are seeking yields. eric: and covenant erosion. joshua: and that as well. cere are now over 1300 triple . covenants get bad when money is competing. eric: what will change that? as long as we live in the zero, low u.s. or negative rates as we have seen in japan and europe, and investors are reaching for

yield, what is going to change that? what will stop covenants from eroding? joshua: it is that triple c issue. you see people trying to have a fund that will work hard and his high yield, and it goes down and reverses quickly. the unwind over let's quickly. it was pretty severe. high-yield market was down most of 5% last year, and then another month and a quarter this year. it can unwind very violently and unpleasantly. eric: is there anything attractive in this environment? joshua: it is a credit figures type of the market. picker's type of market. you have to be quite careful. there is many areas that were very cheap.

some of them are still cheap. others have bounded and are not cheap. eric: what about energy? joshua: the things that have driven the market our energy crisis and flows of capital. energy crisis, the problem historically was a lot of high-yield issuers, but not high-grade. the high-yield issuers get into markets and say, a year ago, in many cases those in securities probably stacked up poorly. you needed good commodity performance to make a lot of those securities perform. gothen oil went down, they crops. and then it rebounded. it is still questionable. the higher end of that market is still quality. eric: what about volatility in general? if you look at oil prices, you , thethe kind of volatility

wrap and rebound we saw in the first quarter is going to become more of the norm? think so. you have an economy where people ,cknowledge it is slow provisions have been down and not up. you have all of the questions about china and the effect slower growth might have on the u.s., and you have a very rapid pace of technological displacement of certain industries. ,he big issuers of high-yield those businesses have changes in their models. eric: are you buying or selling on balance? joshua: we were buying a lot prior to february 11, and we have been selling more recently. eric: that is josh friedman, co-ceo at canyon partners. david: coming up, we go back to las vegas with t boone pickens. ahead, macy's is cutting

overdone. do you agree with that? michael: a little more than overdone. we are in environment yielded six really important -- is extremely important. investors and their money have to pay to keep their money at a bank. we are in an environment where everything is possible for investors. we are concerned there is too much money chasing assets. if you look at the high-yield market in particular, high-yield markets. of two you have a lot of companies yielding very little, 4%, not very attractive. and others a part the high-yield universe are energy companies that you see 15% yields, but investors know [indiscernible] investing, you are going to be exposed to commodities, and they will remain of agree -- a degree above volatility. we talking about

inflation popping up across europe. what is the significance of that? michael: it is another sign of demand for yields. you have the ecb has been sucking everybody in saying, we what drives yield down, we will buy everything, so go ahead and make loans to country like spain and italy that are much more and challenges from an economic perspective versus germany. they are enticing them by saying go ahead and buy it, because we will make money. you can get it and very cheap rates. now your talking about a 50 year bond for spain. i don't think the ecb is going to buy 50 year bonds. you are actually relying on the credit quality of spain. david: do you think we will see that in the u.s.? michael: there have been longer issuance.

mr. -- mexico, other countries. , it makes a issue lot of sense for countries with rates so low to take advantage of it. not stays., rates will down forever. it is a good idea for the treasury to extend. david: what are your thoughts on market complacency? we are still focused on china and europe, a lot of undermining factors. forael: yield is not free investors. usually give something up or take a risk. if you invest in u.s. treasuries, investors outside u.s. like them because they are positive areas but there is risk. you look at the job market, we are starting to see wage pressures in the u.s. economy and the fed looking to continue to raise rates albeit relatively slowly. that is nothing to be a great

investment -- that does not seem to be a great investment when you have those yields behind you. so the investors are not factoring in the risk. on the corporate side, there is factors.other significant leverage, earnings slowing down, and you have an environment where the economy is growing ok, but it is not supportive of significant growth. we think right now, the people that are continuing to invest in the corporate credit environment will be in the future. david: thank you so much. sachs.rom goldman commodities close coming up. ♪ [ soft music ]
