>> the problem will be when people realize look at these inflation numbers, they are going up instead of down. >> inflation will be higher than it was the last cycle. >> we hear from the fed officials in line with the data is that they are starting to get frustrated. >> we're still pricing the fed cutting before anyone else and i don't understand that. >> our forecast is so i'm pretty sure we will be in a small recession later this year. >> this is bloomberg surveillance with tom keene jonathan ferro and lisa abramowicz. jonathan: closing out the month
6:01 am
of may, live from new york city, good morning, good morning for our audience worldwide. this is bloomberg surveillance on tv and radio. your equity market is just about negative on the s&p 500. a monster outperformer year to date from that nasdaq 100 relative to everything else. tom: it's led by nvidia and we decided we don't own nvidia so it's a lousy may but it's about the nasdaq that's outperforming but the backdrop is fascinating when you look at the economics. inflation in france coming in lower and spain coming in lower and the news from china today is underreported against that nasdaq boom. jonathan: pmi last night dropped from china below 50 now, unsettling for those looking for a big rebound in the connie.
6:02 am
we've been watching the euro, this negative information pushing -- pushing back against the consensus that this is where the growth would be in china. it would benefit europe and things are starting to roll over. lisa: it's hard to understand the international import was -- impulsive some kind of china slowed down. at this point given the downsized surprise in china, went to they start stimulus again and do they and does it matter for global growth? does it continue to be a domestically driven game? tom: this is not going to be something -- i would look sunday evening at 7 p.m. lisa: it's hard to get conviction right now and that's the reason people are piling into a couple of ai names.
6:03 am
they are continuing to stay defensive. jonathan: that is so sad. lisa: i love you, too. jonathan: it's not just nvidia, meta, amd, salesforce, tesla. just on tesla, i read a fantastic piece yesterday, it's all about fidelity, cutting the valuation of twitter but the last line of the story should have been the first line because the last line of the story was this -- despite twitters issues, elon musk wealth is up more than $48 billion this year. here we are throwing mud at elon musk because he paid $44 billion for something that's worth nowhere near but his wealth is up more than $50 billion. i get it but it's funny to me to see the last line of the story which should have been the first line.
6:04 am
lisa: it probably underscores what people feel and why everyone is potentially going after him because he was -- if he was getting kicked in the head, people would say maybe that's enough. jonathan: he's doing ok. better than ok. your equity market in the s&p 500 is negative point 2%. on the nasdaq, we've been flying this year. yields come back down on the bond market. there is the move on the euro, back down to $1.06. tom: oil is 68 dollars $.19. you will get a 67 print here at some point. it all rolls back to china which has to be the theme today. jonathan: pmi's coming in softer? lisa: that will be the theme going forward to understand how much disinflation takes hold.
6:05 am
we haven't mentioned the debt limit. that's part of the reason why i took time up at the house is voting on the debt limit deal. how much of a pushback is there from the freedom caucus? also ron desantis coming out against this and how must've this factor into the presidential election. jolts data comes out at 10:00 a.m.. i came back for the fed speak which includes the boston fed president and michelle bowman and patrick harker and fed governor philip jefferson, curious to see whether there is any cohesive -- jonathan: once that debt ceiling deal passes, you will have lots of issues. tom: i didn't understand the memos.
6:06 am
there is a lot of money coming in in short term paper. this is your world, the short term paper versus benchmark, 181 basis points near that 191. jonathan: it's exciting to come back for the ship -- for the fed speak. we talked about the outperformance of the nasdaq and good morning to you. any reason to believe that ends anytime soon? >> no, i think you have another sense of american exceptionalism taking home -- taking hold. ai was something that we didn't know it was necessarily coming but that's something you can understand. there has also been this flight to quality trade that is helped growth stocks. we were locked in. it was so bad i had to watch an episode of bridgerton. lisa: i like bridgerton. jonathan: probably one of the
6:07 am
worst things he would have to do. lisa: i totally disagree. tom: it's like the guy in succession. >> which one, tom? on the other site of it, you had this scenario were banks were under stress. companies with these forges balanchine's were surprise this year that has driven high quality tech to being that defensive trade again. i would say we were surprised at the defensive trade in the wake of the bank stress. here we are with american exceptionalism in the equity markets. lisa: could you and up with a range bound s&p 500 but the conservative trade, the defensive trade getting upended as some of the names rallying as big tech loses steam? a lot of churn underneath the
6:08 am
hood, slamming everybody out of their positions? >> if you have superhigh conviction now, you are not paying attention. this has been a slow moving economy and market. what we believe is that we are headed toward slower growth. you are seeing that in europe now and seeing that in china with the collective impact of rate hikes and inverted yield curves. is it a continuation of this rolling recession that we've been on that keeps you in this range bound environment or does it rake into a classic recession? that's very much the open question. we don't know the answer and the answer to your question depends on that. if it's a rolling recession, you can see growth continue to lead the way and you could see bond yields at her range bound and the spreads don't widen and the fed doesn't cut that much or anytime soon and you get your 5% in cash in your growth stocks in
6:09 am
those the only games in town. if it breaks into a classic recession, bond yields fall, you got a bond trade, spreads widen which opens you up to a positive credit trade down the road and you will see more pressure in the equity market and that's why we are watching the small banks and small businesses. however that breaks will tell you which direction you are going. lisa: what's the message from commodities now? >> they are telling you global growth is slowing. if you look at what the commodity market is telling you, it's either meaningful disinflation on the horizon or outright recession risk. if you look at some of the numbers out of china and europe, i think you are starting to see those economies rake toward the more classic recession. in the u.s., is taking longer but the economy is resilient. there is more excess savings, more excess stimulus in the u.s. so we may be headed that way
6:10 am
which is not clear but it certainly is not happening as quickly as it is the rest of the world. jonathan: the stock market is not the economy. there is a key line you use -- american exceptionalism in the equity market. we had a decade of that. europe doesn't have nvidia. are we setting up for the same thing again or is it too premature to tell? >> at least over the medium to long-term. if you want to break down economic growth, it's how many babies you have for bring in and how much do you innovate? when you look at the u.s. demographic, you've got 30% working age population declines over the next 30 or 40 years for europe and china and japan. the u.s. doesn't have that. the u.s. has 10% population
6:11 am
growth projections over the next 20 or 30 years and you are the center of the world whether it's ai or robotics or other things were blockchain, you name it, it's starting with u.s. intellectual capital. you are taking a long-term bet on which economy will lead the world. and which stock market will be rewarded for that. it's absolutely the united states. it's the only major economy that has the combination of robust working age population growth and transformative innovation. i don't think that changes anytime soon. jonathan: equal weight s&p, market cap s&p, nasdaq 100 -- if you had to run an index right now, what would it be? >> i think you are bar billing -
6:12 am
belling on the equity side. the defensive dividend payers like the dow jones like dividends is a good place to be in then you have to pick some cyclical part. markets rally on fed pauses and even if the recession is to follow, what is the risk asset you want to own? it's not cyclicals. it has been international for us. i would like it to be growth going forward but i will not pay these multiples. story here is you by growth in any meaningful pullback, you sell cyclicals on any meaningful rally. jonathan: steve, good to catch up. a big line there, u.s. exceptionalism, is it making a comeback with nvidia higher? tom: it's a huge deal.
6:13 am
i can't wait to see the mathematics of active versus passive june 30. jonathan: equities are slightly negative, from new york, this is bloomberg. lisa: keeping you up-to-date with news from around the world with the first word -- the debt limit deal heads to a house vote today after squeaking through house rules committee by a 7-6 margin. the congressional budget office estimates the deal would cut deficits by 1.5 trillion dollars over a decade. house speaker kevin mccarthy has dismissed threats from republican hardliners to remove him from his job. foreign ministers of the nato countries began a two day meeting in oslo to discuss the ukraine bid to join the military alliance as well as how to boost spending. french will speak and is expected to emphasize the importance of the nato role in europe. u.s. urged serbia and kosovo to
6:14 am
immediately de-escalate tensions in northern kosovo after clashes injured dozens of peacekeepers and protesters. the u.s. secretary of state blamed kosovo's prime minister for unnecessarily inflaming ties with the minority serb community. he urged the newly elected mayors to avoid working in predominantly serbian towns where violence erected this week. global news powered by more than 2700 journalists and analysts in over 120 countries, this is bloomberg. ♪
6:17 am
>> i'm not sure what in the bill they are concerned about. it has savings of $2.1 trillion. it's a major victory. i understand people can get upset of walking through the debt ceiling but this is a house, a senate i presidency. >> we will make sure that country does not default but we will also make sure that kevin mccarthy and my colleagues on the other cited the aisle uphold their end of the bargain which is simply to produce a
6:18 am
sufficient number of votes. jonathan: house speaker kevin mccarty and hakeem jeffries speaking yesterday. wall street hoping we could just move on and hopefully we can. we could have about a little bit later in the house as they are passing a key procedural hurdle. there's going to be a balloon and t-bill issuance? there is a ramification of the silliness in washington to our world. jonathan: which will be hundreds of billions of dollars of t-bills. some people think that will be ok and some people think it can exacerbate existing tensions which are in the banking sector competing for capital with banks. i can imagine you are thinking about the other side of the trade a little bit more. we had someone from columbia who sent them of this yesterday who thinks this will be ok and we will get through it, no big deal. lisa: most people do which is
6:19 am
why the distortions haven't gotten exacerbated budget inc. about this banking stress, you see the biggest capital flight in 50 years. what will this do? tom: this friday when the report comes out, we may see further deposit flights. i just wonder, the flows are in place. jonathan: i will not make the call. loretta messer is worth reading. she talks about making another move next week and she doesn't see the conditions for a pause. payrolls on friday, cpi the day before and we will see what we get. we talked to citibank. he says .4% month on month and cpi gets it done for him. tom: we will give you the coverage on friday. right now, we speak expertise
6:20 am
with wendy schiller, one of our most popular guests. professor, there is the scene in the movie lincoln with daniel day lewis and sally field and tommy lee jones steals it as thaddeus stevens. there is all the drama and the emancipation proclamation all that. history is repeating itself, it seems like that now. who is the thaddeus stevens on the hill that will get this done? >> i think the democrats essentially and hakeem jeffries has to deliver. he says we need 150 republican votes and we will have to hold up but the white house has a democratic occupant and you have to save the present and the economy so the democrats led by hakeem jeffries will have to step in if the revolt on the republicans grows much stronger. tom: joe manchin got a pipeline in the summits of what will they
6:21 am
give the house liberals to get their vote? >> they will not need that many liberals. they will not need the most left-wing of the caucus. they may or may not give them a pass and say you don't have to go down this road because the most left-wing will say the moat -- the most right wing is not voting for this so why should we? that's the concern, the snowball effect. if you give some people a pass not to vote for this bill, how many more people do you give a pass and does your majority collapse? i don't see that happening. i think there are enough confirmed republicans, enough that hakeem jeffries will only have to get a certain percentage of his caucus and moderate democrats will need to vote for this and show that they are willing to contain the federal deficit. lisa: what does the west virginia national pipeline have to do with fiscal responsibility? >> is the way or do our
6:22 am
budgeting. we have a congress that is geographically apportioned and is bicameral. you have different incentives for senators versus house members, smaller population large geography states that have natural resources. this was the structure create a long time ago. it doesn't really fit at all. we are stuck with our huge federal government and federal budget. i can go way back attached to the debt ceiling and it was budgetary policy. this is not the way you want to make policy for a government this large. lisa: government came out and said it might reduce the deficit by rounding error but longer-term, slow growth does not address the real pressing
6:23 am
fiscal concerns with respect to certain programs that will be unsustainable. what's your view on that? is this lipstick on a pig? >> i don't know if i would go that far. at least two thirds of the federal budget, over $7 trillion, that is entitlements for built-in spending, defense spending, programs you cannot touch there facing some insolvency concerns, social security, medicare. nobody touches those programs. congressman go near them. they are doing a few things to trim the work requirements and make it stiffer to get some social welfare programs but the big ticket ones are not being touched. until those are tests, the federal budget will continue on this growth trajectory which means we will spend more than we take in every year. the debt will just keep growing particularly if you cut the irs which collects revenue which helps balance our federal spending.
6:24 am
tom: you mentioned graham rudman. why can't we get a commission done that has some strength to get to a good resolution? >> i think the republican party has strategically decided that being anti-federal government across the board is winning them votes and keeping their base roiled up and that's partly involving federal spending. some states a republican governor said we won't take federal money. they are now saying we don't want the money and we will not provide the services the money would help us provide. you are seeing a larger trend, a dipper trend in the republican party that is rejecting federal authority. this is part of it so if you can cut spending and that becomes a big ticket item, you want credit for that. you want congress to do that you want to be in a room to say you can cut spending because that gives them a talking point that
6:25 am
resonates among their base. jonathan: for how much longer do you think speaker mccarthy will be speaker mccarthy? >> democrats have said they will keep this guy afloat. they have already said if his own party rejects him, we will find the votes to keep him. the alternative could be significantly worse for the democrats and president biden. mccarthy looks like a guy will get the most basic things done and he seemed to have grown into the role. i see some democrats, maybe those who will retire perhaps in 2024 but they will come to his rescue which they have said pub jonathan: publicly. not exactly a ringing endorsement, democrats will support mccarthy. >> democrats should be aware because these splits in the republican party is what we also saw with john boehner and paul ryan. yet donald trump one and a huge
6:26 am
served -- a huge surge of republicans so it doesn't tell you anything about the republicans to get behind their candidate in the next election. jonathan: that's not what i was implying. i meant for kevin mccarthy, it's hardly a ringing endorsement from the moderate republican party for him and the fact that he needs to rely on democrats to remain speaker mccarthy. tom: i cannot state how ronald ragan invented how you run on the outside and then run through the middle. lisa: i'm not sure of pride is a big concern of his. how many votes did it take? 15? jonathan: something like that. lisa: he's not looking for a ringing endorsement.
6:30 am
jonathan: equities in the s&p 500 little negative on the s&p 500 this morning. dan week go by 0.3% on the nasdaq 100 which was on a three day winning streak. we are slightly negative right now. month to date, the nasdaq 100 is up i more than 8% this month. the eighth -- the equal weight s&p 500 is up as well. that's three months of
6:31 am
outperformance year to date. let's look at the bonds. the two before today on the month was higher by 44 basis points. it's trim some of that. remarkable to see those gains in the equity market in the nasdaq and big cap tech with those moves in the bond market at the same time. tom: -80 basis points yesterday. we've seen or read inversion. i'm going to go to the three month tenure, the high-yield t-bill as compared to the economic slow down 10 year yield, 181 basis points. jonathan: for a moment this was boring and then it got interesting particularly in the fx market with the lift in yields. place that prove foreign-exchange you have a stronger dollar and we co--- in a weaker euro and pmi's
6:32 am
disappointing and manufacturing a whole lot softer but led by what's developing in china relative to expectations for a big boom. the euro hasn't seen $1.08 for a week now. $1.06. tom: we are committed to international economics. we did imf covers recently including speaking to the managing director. eric martin was reporting on the bombshell five-year view of 3% global growth. i'm still not used to that report from the imf, thank you for that report. today, duncan wrigley of pantheon, he comes out and says china needs to export disinflation. we so that banner when alan greenspan was running the show and william lee joins us now. let's start with greenspan 101
6:33 am
-- is china and their slogan going to export disinflation and deflation? >> china cannot export much of anything now but i hope what they do is disinflation for the rest of the world. the chinese recovery has really faltered we can see that it not only is manufacturing down but consumption is on its way going down as well. unemployment rates are at 20%. china is not good shape night noun. we are looking around and seeing what will pull china out of the doldrums. tom: what are the degrees of freedom that autocracy has when they are supposed to provide stimulus? >> it's pretty limited. not only is the federal debt out of control but the municipal level debt is out of control. the general channels for fiscal policy have been through the government to try to hire more people and build more projects and stuff like that but right now, they can't do that.
6:34 am
the amount of fiscal policy we have is truly limited and monetary policy, you have low rates but people will stay there and not borrow. where will they spend the money in order to make money in the future if demand is slow? china right now is snowballing into a fairly bad static plateau. lisa: it's -- has it been priced in or not? >> one of the things we have to look at is where is it being priced? we talked at the milken conference that a lot of investors going to china are going to private markets and we can't see a lot of that. one thing that everyone made clear is they need a good service the need someone to guide them through to find new investment opportunities. investors say they are getting good bargains because the slow down is affecting valuations in the public and private markets.
6:35 am
will you get the kind of returns you are hoping for? there i have my doubts. the possibility of technological change is also not going to be there because policy has been and site innovation, anti-technology and it's hard to see that changing. lisa: that's what we pointed to earlier as far as the tech indices. there is a huge wafer occasion between the two. has this been priced and in terms of the impulse that china had on europe? the euro has, for its earlier highs. >> the remembyi is weaker than it has been. the fx market is very short term. our investors pricing and growth opportunities over the next five years? are they putting the marginal dollar into china or somewhere else?
6:36 am
more often than not, it will be somewhere else very tom: you've got a great ability to move away from the pacific rim and the three cities we focus on all the time. what does the rest of china look like with the unemployment rates that are being reported? >> that's a great question. until now, i would have said the prospects for any kind of innovation or any kind of employment growth will come out west. the milken study for the grading disc rated performing studies in china landed onshain dou is a small innovation hub and we stand by those numbers but the numbers get dated and i'm not sure if even out west the innovation hubs can give the employment they hope for. tom: we've been here before and beijing always blinks and moves away from a totalitarian mindset , the autocracy of president xi and they moved to some form of liberality and capitalism. you say it will not happen this
6:37 am
time? i have to duck because he's throwing stock. >> president xi blinking could involve different wrinkle. he will rely on nationalism and militarism and some expansion of hubris into the rest of asia. he wants asia to be the currency area for the remembyi so these are the kind of place we should look for any kind of resuscitation of chinese nationalism. they will try to instill pride in the chinese people without giving them jobs that will be a cute trick. lisa: what does that mean in terms of international business? jp morgan is being diplomatic but had a pro china speech. how much can you cad coupling ari willingness to exacerbate that on the chinese side in light of the economic challenges?
6:38 am
>> we have a lovefest with u.s. ceos going back to tim cook and out elon musk. jamie dimon is slick to say i'm a true american and i'm a patriot so when you vote for me, remember that. going forward, we will see more of that because the people who are in china have to maintain their business and contain what they gain. the marginal dollar and americans thinking of going to china, what will they see and i think they will see a lot of opportunities in korea and the quad country surrounding china. that's where a lot of the innovative industries are moving to. lisa: you were talking about the stagnant plateau. what is the stagnant plateau in china? what is the rate of growth that will be the new normal and drive demand for the luxury goods that
6:39 am
have gotten bid for goods which have driven people to the downside this year? >> the official number is a five handle for growth going forward and we will likely see more like a three handle. with populations stagnant, any kind of massive productivity growth can't get them above three. jonathan: market participants will be interested in the next move on stimulus to get the pmi back above 50. that's not what the leader of the chinese comet's party will be focused on. they will take a multi-decade view and will be far more interested in the kind of fiscal moves they make to stimulate more investment in certain parts of the economy that will be highly competitive with the united states and europe come up a tickly is the u.s. re-trenches and refuses to do business with the chinese government. what are you focused on with regards to that? >> if you look at where the chinese art meeting, they are not with meeting with defense
6:40 am
secretary austen so they are not talking military. we know what they are doing their does not positive for the u.s. but they will meet with gina raimondo, the commerce secretary. they're hoping for some action on the tariffs and cutting the semiconductor restrictions and their information blackout will leverage what our -- what our investors see. they will shape the story for global investors. it's wonderful investors cannot resist coming but in order to do the due diligence, they require information and that's being restricted as we speak by the chinese government. going forward, i don't see that changing. jonathan: clarity, transparency, how do i know what the unemployment rate actually is in china? measuring it is hard enough but when we hear youth unemployment at 20%, how bad is it echo >> it is that bad or worse and if it wasn't, we were -- we would hear
6:41 am
more about informal data but we see companies being wound down by the government and we see due diligence companies being queried by the officials. the chinese are making it clear that we will feed you the information you need but it's from us. jonathan: bill, good to catch up as always. it's been a tough year for the equity market in china. hang seng is down by more than 20% from the peak so we are in a bear market in some parts of chinese equities. you compare that to the nasdaq this year and that wasn't meant to be the way this played out in 2023. it was meant to be very different in the equity market. tom: it was predicted to be 6% but now it's modeled down to 3%. i don't think anybody believes the bombshell but a tendency toward 3% global growth affects
6:42 am
china more than any other nation. lisa: how do you create a valuation for some tech prowess if you are basically forcing tech companies to break and reduce certain aspects of their company? how do you innovate with that? alibaba has to spin off their cloud computing so how do you invest in certain things. how you create consistency that allows for investments to compete especially without stimulus? jonathan: there was a story we put out the last week or so that you could see some rate cuts, you could see some fiscal stimulus that targeted a high-end manufacturing. when you see those headlines if they cross, that will not be about getting pmi above 50 again , there is something more strategic than that. tom: we will talk about this, this is not going away. jonathan: cfra on nvidia coming up next.
6:43 am
lisa: keeping you up-to-date with news from around the world with the first word -- >> the debt limit deal heads to a house vote today after squeaking through the house rules committee by a seven-six margin. jpmorgan chase chief executive officer jp -- jamie dimon says he is optimistic about it. >> i wish one day we get rid of the whole debt ceiling thing but i understand it's a democracy and people of different opinions of what we should be doing and is just one tool for one party to get the other party to the table. i'm quite optimistic there and i do applaud the fact that they sat down and got something done. lisa: the nonpartisan congressional budget office estimates the deal would cut deficits by $1.5 trillion over a decade. north korea has confirmed an effort to launch a military spy satellite into orbit failed earlier today. the official news agency reported a rocket crashed into the yellow sea after losing propulsion in the second stage

astronomical amount and everyone is latching onto it. i think we need to be cautious going forward. i think there is so many unanswered questions and i don't think you put all your eggs in the ai basket but you have to have exposure knowing it will be part of the future. jonathan: you know when you get a briefing from pr as a ceo, you know it sounds like. just mention ai and wants the stock go higher. beyond nvidia, it's names you wouldn't associate with this stuff. we've been doing this for ages they say. lisa: doesn't this feel like what happened with cryptocurrencies in general with respect to blockchain? you had operators mentioning blockchain and their stocks would surge? nvidia says we have more ai and everyone says yay. jonathan: the challenge back then was to try and draw a distinction between the frenzy,
6:48 am
angst going too far and the real innovation that will be with us. lisa: last night, the kids were studying and they all run their tests through a chatgpt paradigm to see what grade they would get. the teachers are doing this as well. then they get a great and they know whether they have to work harder not. this is being weaved into the daily existence of so many people. jonathan: they are grading based on this? lisa: i have heard anecdotally that this has happened. if they've got a lot of students, they can run it through chatgpt. jonathan: it's amazing. tom: we ran math scores through chatgpt and it started smoking. lisa: i asked them if it's a tool to substitute or is this

6:50 am
the only way you can justify this is to extend your timeline. you go right out to 2024 and you say with a 25% growth pop, you are buying a 40 multiple stock. why don't you extrapolate to 2025? >> i think you can. there is no danger with extrapolating those numbers out right but gp use will increasingly represent a bigger percentage of dollars with these cloud companies. over the next 3-5 years, the annual growth rate for gp used specifically like nvidia on the accelerated side of things in the cloud can grow in annualized pace north of 25%. that can get you to an eps growth rate over time for nvidia
6:51 am
north of 20%. if you are a believer that the top line for this company candid continue to grow. tom: are there other nvidias out there? >> we wrote a piece back in late march about the biggest winners of the generative ai within the semiconductor industry and we talked to for names -- we pointed to for names and they were nvidia and amd is another. the other two names are more network conductivity names -- conductivity. we think broadcom is highly underappreciated. lisa: what is a tech company now and which ones can take advantage of artificial intelligence? amd is clear-cut or nvidia but
6:52 am
what about meta-, what about other companies that could potentially gain from the productivity of investments of artificial intelligence. how do you value which companies will gain in which won't? >> that's probably the most important question we get from investors right now. from a monetization perspective, who will be the biggest winners in this boom. it's a tough question to answer. the easy answer now is on the semiconductor side of things and the infrastructure side and playing that and that's where the action has been in recent weeks. when you are more forward-looking, we look at the larger cap stocks. microsoft is clearly at the top of the list in our view with copilot out there in the potential to see significant pricing power, we think the line of sight is highly visible were over the next decade, there
6:53 am
should be a clear winner. other names like alphabet and meta-we think will be tougher calls. that's why you don't see the multiples to the extent where you see the microsoft's of the world. the big reason is, will they get the roi potential or get the advertising from this ai boom? we think there are positives out there but i don't think it's as clear as a name like microsoft. lisa: you can believe this story and anyone who says anybody is using this has to be something of a believer or at least an open recipient of this information but to have some naysayers about the valuation saying the rally you have seen so far, 31% in big tech stocks so far this year is a test has a risk of petering out. they say positioning is such that it is rife for profit-taking. do you play into that?

do you think anything like that will just be a buying opportunity? how do you play the tactical ride up that cannot continue at this pace? >> in terms of the performance, we think they will be some sort of ai fatigue potentially in the coming weeks. that said, we remain big believers that the valuation is not as extended as many people think. especially as you look toward 24 basis points for names like nvidia and others where they are within their 5-10 year ranges. when you think about the growth tied to a number of these names, i .2 names like a microsoft and others. it is a risk to the downside on the estimate. there is probably upside
6:55 am
potential to the estimates. we want to be behind these names that are ai related and you kind of want to have a basket of names, not put all your eggs in one basket and you want to avoid any pullbacks. it's definitely gotten a bit hot especially on the semi side of things. the four names we highlight it continue to be the biggest winners in the names you want to buy. jonathan: some people feel like they have to be long. 49 buys 8 holds and one guy who couldn't care less. do you sense the so-called career risk associated with this and how quickly it's moving? isn't it pressure that you have to be long? >> that's a great point. i think there is always risk on that side of things.
6:56 am
we are fundamental by nature and to us, the fundamentals are screaming buy right now and you continue to pound the table on these type of names. especially on nvidia when you look at the multiples in the low 40's and then you look at the growth tied to it, 3-5 years and you look at how early we are and you are a believer of autonomous vehicles or what have you, there is risk to potentially having to sell to be tactical in nature rather than beating the table on the longer-term outlook on these areas. i think that's what you need to do for investors out there now. jonathan: always great to hear from you, thank you. the pressure year to date must be huge. tom: the pressure end of year for people behind this, are at

7:03 am
on the other. tom: you can see it in --jon: you can see it in the underperformance of chinese equities. the reopening trade stymied in october. i am with you. the breakdown in the european story is the one to take in -- my attention and anticipation on maybe we have the pushback of the idea of this is where the growth will be and this is where the equity market gains would be. the story has been challenged and we heard from -- the line that we talked about. arbery going back to u.s. equity market exceptionalism? the problem a lot of people have listening to this is that they have a struggle on their hands. in the u.s. equity market, are we on the brink of a melt top or a melt down? there is no conviction consensus. tom: the consensus has been some
7:04 am
sort of marginal moved to -- where you find value in emerging market bonds. time after time, you end up with some soup of resilient dollar, stronger dollar, diminished growth expectations off of what was look at six-month before and that is where we are right now. i will go to the imf bombshell of april 6. are reframing out 3% global growth. technically -- jon: for many people who have booked a vacation to europe, based here in america, you probably want to watch -- all one of five watch. the right be some euros -- there might be some euros that need to be paid. the broader market story, equity futures on the s&p 500 shaping up and we look at this, negative

7:06 am
people are saying it looks like we need another hike and we do need to tighten more. there seems to be more of a reticence around the edges and a pushback from some members. jon: if you want to identify some consensus, you mentioned pushing against cuts and they don't want to commit to up. lisa: especially because we don't know which way things will break. the disinflation story, the china story, we get the disinflation story out of italy and the distant -- out of plants -- france. italy comes and surprises to the upside with respect to inflation and how do you get a handle on what is going on? jon: if you're interested in the views of jp diamond -- jamie dimon, we will play some of that for you. jamie dimon on the debt ceiling and china and u.s. interest rates. we will catch up with emily
7:07 am
roland, co. chief investment strategist at john hancock investments. i have been speaking to you all year and you pushback against the euro euphoria. you remain committed to the growth equity story and the united states over the rest of the world. are you sticking with it? emily: we are absolutely and it feels like markets are getting the memo in terms of the macroeconomic environment. we are looking at decelerating growth as you have mentioned, disappointing data overnight in china. he saw japan industrial production and retail sales disappointing and you see this big rotation into yours -- u.s. markets and that has been exhibited by the cost asset action. you are seeing the dollar get a bid and this massive rotation into u.s. quality growth stocks which we have talked about for some time so that has key locations for portfolios
7:08 am
especially when you think about some of these trend following strategies. japan, they have bought euros based on the price, and you may see that reverse and exacerbate some of the flows. tom: you will get me in trouble mentioning the trend following strategies. i am glad you mentioned japan. those were shocking numbers. within this, the sticky inflation. everyone is doing real analysis but we live in a nominal world. will we be surprised by ok revenue growth that supplies blue chips? emily: inflation has helped these companies that have a lot of pricing power, especially companies have -- that have high operating leverage. we think it is going to be hard to sustain that going forward. bottom line costs are elevated, whether that is the cost of capital and wage growth is
7:09 am
elevated. they are fine with that going down and demand is starting to slow. we have seen that way back in the supply chain when you look at the i -- supply index and new orders. i know everyone has a favorite leading indicator but that is ours at john hancock and that will put pressure on margins and cost companies to defend their margins going forward and that will result in the unemployment rate rising. we haven't seen that happen yet but we think that is something that comes in the next quarters. lisa: there has been a growing team about this inflection point that we seem to be coming upon, not just because we are halfway through the year but some of the main drivers in the first half are shifting. do you see that as well and what are the features of? the inflection? point emily: some of the main drivers have been supporting the market. better weather in europe that
7:10 am
cost massive rotation into european equities and cost -- because the dollar to weekend -- weekend --weaken. you are seeing some of those things shift. as this rotation comes back to the u.s.. the economic data not great across the globe but it is better in the u.s. which is a big shift over the last couple quarters. stronger dollar, bid for treasuries. we think those are where the opportunities are from here in the market action from the past couple of days to us makes a ton of sense given the fact we are in a decelerating growth environment and recession is likely to unfold. jon: thank you. emily roland of john hancock investments. we have gone to extreme levels back to late september. euro-dollar, the single currency dropped to about 95.
7:11 am
106 point -- 1.0677. i don't see anyone suggesting we can go to those levels but these levels surprise people to because there were because to get back to 1.15 on the euro. remember when i went to london and every guest lined up to state the ecb will hike more than the federal reserve this year. they bade mel -- they may well do. the story has changed. tom: i've mentioned this. emily -- emily roland mentioned the slowdown in japan an obvious data in tokyo and china and europe and this brings back within a terrible war, the idea of innovation, the buoyancy and affirmance of europe, is that belief still there? lisa: i would type is to china. how much of the enthusiasm of the upside subplot -- surprise in your -- europe -- how much

that he wants and this is why you hear swelling of this idea that there will be a motion to vacate figure mccarthy because they wanted deeper spending cuts but by and large, the majority of the republican say we understand and we only control the house. democrats control the senate and they control the white house and in that environment, we are still able to get a deal and they wanted back. -- they want to back mccarthy. this is a divide within the party but that divide has been there for years. tom: i want to go back to these x number of republicans standing up and if the boat was the other way, it would be the x numbers of progressives as well. i have no real escalation -- recollection of the past -- putting at risk their party and their speaker. to you and your study of this, is this a modern occurrence that

7:35 am
relieved i am not to hear him tell me that i should be preparing for 7%. [laughter] i will take what i can. we argue for a posten that should relax the markets. this is the time where you click coupons because yields have reset materially higher from where they were at the end of 2021. when you look at real yields in the bond market, they are the highest level going back 17 years. we are going to get some capital appreciation on top of the coupon clipping. i am looking for close to double-digit returns on the bloomberg aggregate over the next -- jon: this is a key --tom: this is a key statement. mr. jamie dimon knows what a s&p blue book is. you try to buy bonds for a price up yields down. which kind of bonds will give you the best pop to get your doctoral --your double-digit

things. it gives you a reasonably high level of yield. it is not cash. cash is sitting out there at 5% but that is the cash-strapped at this type -- the cash trap at this time of. the cycle your cash -- the cycle. you have lost all of that and then the yield curve starts to adjust to a central bank that is cutting rates. we think we are going to be in a recession by the end of the year and everything that has happened this year tells us end of the year recession. that first fed rate cut in september and i know the recent data throw some of that into speculation. not in our book. jon: five-year in the treasury market. ig, and some -- tons of demand coming from abroad. high-yield.

within your call, does it make sense to be buying high-yield and taking on more credit risk at a time the fed will be cutting rates? bob: i am listening to the conversation at the start about the equity market and how we are isolating nvidia and a couple things have driven this rally. there are other things that are lacking. i am a bond guy, which makes me a equity market expert. [laughter] i see a lot of what is going on in the equity market and high-yield market and we have parsed through this. what you are looking at is the triple seat universe is 8000 -- 1000 basis points over. the double d universe is in -- the different differentiation is occurring. this is different from where we were in august.
7:39 am
whenever we hit 600 basis points over, most of the market was about 600 basis points over. that was probably the time to take a shot over the near term. now is not. the market is telling you there is differentiation beneath the surface. investors are seeing cracks forming and they're trying to get out of the way. lisa: you said things are playing out as they should to get to a recession by the end of the year and get the fed to cut rates by september. does that mean we will see a rapid deceleration in some of the economic data that we haven't seen yet? bob: absolutely and we talked about this. from the last fed rate hike until recession, it has historically averaged about a 13 month period so the long end variable takes time. we are getting into a year and a quarter and we are going to start hitting the window when the 475 -- 475 basis --four 75
7:40 am
basis points are going to hit. the higher cost of everything, that is causing them to rededicate where this spending goes to so that catch-up is coming and some of the inflation data we are looking at, europe, overnight or this morning, came in soft. it really surprised to the upside but everything seems to be slowing down. the one thing that seems to have gone over -- under the radar, look at the bloomberg commodities index. it was 140ish about a year ago and it is below 100 now and the trend is diving south at a rate you only see headed into recession so the weakness is there. the cumulative and lack are catching up. lisa: a lot of people pushback

at commodity being a signal right now and this time they say it is different. here is the issue, people same because of china and the and ability to get that right and because of russia and their willingness to pump much more than their allotted amount to get money to fund the war. you are seeing distortions in the commodity market that do not comply with what they are seeing on the ground. how much are you using this as a key signal to see where we should be? bob: you have low input -- unemployment in the u.s.. everyone is talking about 3.5% unemployment. everyone is talking about wages have gone up and there is stickiness to core inflation. everyone is talking about consumers want to spend on travel and leisure. the demand is there but if demand is at a high enough level, you will see commodities prices pushed higher. people are spending on things and buying things.

appreciation that will be controlled that will force the downturn to accelerate in the fed to cut rates? bob: the cost of carry is too great at some point in time and i think about houston property in the early 80's when everyone talked about, oil price collapse. if you could afford to carry this property, you could make a ton of money. guess what, you couldn't. people were going to the sale of their homes and writing checks were somebody to take their house. -- for somebody to take their house. at some point, you get tired of carrying the property. we are seeing some of that already where you see property owners -- holders say, here is the level of debt and here is what the -- i think the property is work. here are the keys and good luck to you. lisa: there is an issue on whether you think that commercial property devaluation
7:53 am
is going to be what triggers the fed to cut rates. bob: it is not just commercial property. there are a lot of other things going on. the regional banking system is on life support. many of the regional banks have their entire securities portfolios on repo to the fed at par. they are trading in the 90's and they have the cash at par sitting there. those are in the water and now with the federal home loan bank so they have cash to meet deposits around close. we will know in two months when we get bank earnings what is happening. my impression there is -- is that there is still outflows at the regional banks. be don't know how the regional banks will offer rate -- we don't know how the regional banks will operate --

8:08 am
it is true. the s&p is up nicely this year but it is probably the thinnest rally we have seen forever. couple minutes ago i was on my bloomberg and i put in spw index gp go that is the equal way -- if you look at the index, it is negative for the euro from last night. s&p the market cap is up 9.5 with equal weighted is basically zero. that is a 10% spread. the people are missing -- there you go -- that is the future is, never mind. people are missing it is not the market that is up come it is a handful of companies. there are attractive opportunities outside of things that have moved and i would argue it is may be early but time to fight the momentum and look at other areas that should benefit over the next 12 months. lisa: are you going more into bonds?

the idea we could end up at a 3% level for the entire yield curve with people piling into bonds. the fed cutting rates by september and a full-blown recession underway the end of the year. do you take that view as well? alex: full-blown recession is probably a bit overstated. your original question are you going back into bonds, we never left bonds. we have weathered the storm in bonds and have enjoyed the rally since last fall. that is the secret not a lot investors appreciate. that have been quite strong the last seven months. if you look at was going on in bond market today, yields are much juicier than they were year ago. municipals have come of the board. you're to be very picky in corporate. very selective around credit. there is a risk of a deep
8:10 am
-- we will be in recession. our view of gdp u.s. as a negative on it. but it is physically a zero. to get a zero for the full year means the back half is a recession. our view is the strength of the labor market is much stronger and the other negative forces and we muddle through and we get through to the other side. jonathan: it is amazing to see 3.4 state unemployment in america. we have to leave it there. the difference between the outperformance and market cap s&p. nasdaq 100 up 8% this month. s&p down 3% month to date. that is 11 points about performance. a single month. tom: by no means am i saying by wholesale.

8:20 am
can you expand on that power in washington with president after this budget debate? can you get there with donald trump november 2024 to move beyond a narrow majority in the house? bryan: what we're going to see now is a lot of voices coming to the table and i think the one that will be successful as the candidate is going to talk about the future of u.s. about how we will grow the economy and address the fiscal situation we are in. we'll have a number of voices at the table. i think we need to dramatically change course in washington and following two years of dramatic increases of spending. lisa: a lot of people talk about the real discussion being its ultimate and whether social security checks by the be reduced. medicare medicaid receives less funding. are you putting those things on the table in your discussion about further fiscal restraint? bryan: in this bill we are only

8:25 am
it somewhat embarrassing for the president to go abroad to places like japan to the g7 to try and lead the global effort on the bunch of issues to then be looking back and had this debacle playing out at home? bryan: as he divided government there are few opportunities to negotiate spending reforms needed every particularly when exec at of authority has grown dramatically. in this bill we address the fact that the president try to alter student loan payments. that never went through congress in the first place. based on executive overreach what we have so few opportunities to get spending under control. this negotiation allows us to actually bring president of the table and have a conversation about how we get spending under control. this is overall a good bill

that should take pressure off. it is still a long ways to go to we get to pre-pandemic level. lisa: they've been talking about going raising rates will more time before pausing or taking a breather. is that becoming more of a consensus now that there has not been a fuller shakeout in these smaller sector? michael: it does seem to be more consensus but voters, fed voters who have spoken are evenly divided. i think you will see friday and cpi report jobs on the 13th will be -- i would not go to the bank to what is in fed funds futures argument that there is a 65% chance of a rate increase because that can change depending on the data. it does look like most people at the fed leaning in that

8:35 am
economy that has been holding up. a lot of people expected the shift in spending from goods and services but we are continuing to see the economy that both components remain strong and u.s. consumer goes out to spend. tom: one of our themes its return to american exceptionalism. the country by country they seem to be slowing down widely anticipating by imf. at t. rowe price is america the place to be because of economic growth? blerina: i think we saw that last year and i think the theme continues that the fed was able to increase interest rates faster and sooner here than other central banks because of the resilience of the economy. u.s. consumer has been strong. i do think the direction of travel for the second half of the year is one where a ton of headwinds are gathering momentum
8:36 am
so u.s. economy is going to slow as well and we are seeing signs of the labor market starting to cool down. all those things are going to play out -- u.s. would not be as strong in second half of the year as it was in the first half. lisa: wells fargo ceo was speaking at a conference and he talked about credit card spending being up 10% so far this year. debit card spending is about applied the people are out there spending in a significant way -- about the flat people are spending as he is an efficient way. what are you looking at that points to something that is softer, perhaps an inflection point to a lower growth rate? blerina: i think a lot of what is happening last year was labor market was adding jobs in aggregate hours and income was growing fast. even faster than inflation. we look at average hourly earnings that was surpassed by
8:37 am
the rate of inflation but payroll a look at must not. the payroll proxy has been declining because job growth is down but more importantly hours worked are declining faster than employment. that it -- this is important. the other one is excess savings story. we were talking a lot about it as the pandemic ended at whether that was a wealth fact or it is going to be spent by consumers. it turned out last year consumers continue to spend the excess savings buffer and i think that is going to run out at the end of this year. both of those and then you add fiscal impulse which is slightly negative but it is adding to the momentum that is dragging the economy down. all those factors make meat less optimistic about u.s. consumer later in the year. lisa: i am wondering whether you think the momentum we currently
8:38 am
have based on all of these indicators is enough to avoid recession and make a recession and probable because there is still be savings, they're still the power to go out and spend. blerina: it is certainly possible that we can get a soft landing but i think historically with this combination of factors of high inflation, fed tightening, the 20 training -- liquidity training. what happens in the labor market is key. we'll get the jolts data later today. one scenario could be soft landing in the labor market that we need purely through closing vacancies which is something governor while has been discussing since last summer. i think what we have seen so far more consistent with a soft landing in labor market. tom: we are talking about lower
8:39 am
yields. price up, you'll down and there is a debate about this. you're in interesting seat at t. rowe price managing gazillions of dollars. the overarching theme linking your economic with your portfolio managers price up, you'll down in bonds? -- yield down in bonds? blerina: a lots of factors have been affecting yields in recent days about looking at the two year for instance from september to date has been in the range of four to 4.5. for most of the time what is it telling us? market is buying the story that yields will be higher for longer but probably we are quite close to the peak in interest rates. from here i do not think there is that much upside for yields. tom: i think this is a profound idea. bullard and others are talking about higher rate regimes and
8:40 am
others -- the calendar is moving forward. what we hear from bob michele, blerina uruci is something in january or late last year and they are now saying we will compress this in four or five months. lisa: how much does he have to do with china reopening? i want to end of they are to get your thoughts on how much the disinflationary place people are talking about accelerating stands from a china which real but it does not seem to be as people expected. blerina: i think china economic growth story looks different than it did 10 years ago. i do not think they are going to drive economic growth as they did and i think this has repercussions for global inflation and global demand for commodities. i think we're seeing that play out. tom: thank you so much. maybe a softer tone than we

earlier in the year there is this explosive chinese recovery and it will happen fast and a lot like america's, that was never in the carts. china had to get over covid. we are starting to see in april and may whether there's going to be more recovery. the latest data has been bad. the stuff we are seeing has been better than what the government has been putting out. we are not seeing the worrying falls that have perpetuated the gloom. we are not there. tom: dr. lee talks about innovation which comes from a more strident autocracy in beijing. given the changes you see off of the party congress, is this a chinese leadership that can still use traditional monetary and fiscal stimulus to ghost the
8:50 am
economy? leland: the economic model still relies on the impart. there is a lot more restrain and constrained for being able to do it in a way they did before. i think there are elements that as things get worse they will have more pressure to stimulate. i think the mistake is people think they are not stimulating. we have seen policy support this year. we are seeing rates sliding. we are rejections falling which means government has been more permissive in credit revision. it is not nothing. they have not been building and building to assimilate growth. i think they want to stay away from that but they are supportive on monetary side. policy support is there but not in -- what it was in the old days. lisa: you have said people have been to gloomy on china. where are underestimating restraint really is? leland: there are two places. people are shaking up over the
