00:00 Which do you choose Bono in?
00:02 75 basis points
00:05 unwavering
00:06 Unwavering I I don't see any reason the two that are calling for 25 and a 25 25 drop
00:12 I think that's delusional to put it politely
00:14 I think the feds been very clear the fact that we're in a blackout period and they can't make commentary perhaps add a look adds
00:20 a little bit of
00:22 you know
00:23 It's a shroud of unknown around that but I think the Fed has been very steadfast and every time we doubt them they come out
00:30 And they make a statement
00:32 Reinforcing just how hawkish they are so I have no reason to to doubt them
00:36 I think it's 75 basis points without a doubt for me
00:38 I think that maybe I wasn't clear in terms of the nuance of this question
00:43 What do you think the Fed should do as opposed to what do you think the Fed will do?
00:48 Because the notion behind Jeffrey gunlock and Elon Musk's
00:52 Hope that the federal slow down
00:54 What it's doing is that the economy hasn't felt the impact of the right hikes that have put been put in place already
01:01 And so by going full steam ahead we could actually be driving the economy
01:05 Into a recession more quickly more deeply whatever, you know qualifier you want to put there
01:10 Mm-hmm. I think well it is somewhat of a blunt instrument that they have but I agree with Bonwin
01:14 I think 75 is the course they've said it that's what you would want them to do
01:18 That's what I want them to do and what I think yeah
01:20 What the so I think they should do and it is also what I think they will do and we can then let's see how
01:25 The data goes and they can adjust a little bit after instead of
01:28 Shade that would be a pivot right and I don't think pivot is great for them right now. Yeah. Yeah, I would just say this
01:34 I mean again, I'm gonna be a little contrarian here. I actually think they should go a full 1%
01:38 I think the CME FedWatch tool is pricing and maybe a 25% chance of that and here's the thing why I mean
01:43 We saw what happened to the stock market one day when it became very clear that they were not gonna do 50
01:48 They're gonna do 75 or at least that was a projection. Why not do a little more continue to front-end load this thing
01:54 We already see housing data rolling over
01:56 We know that they're very focused on the housing market and then the last piece of the puzzle is going to be
02:01 Employment and so again, you know
02:03 I think if they keep continually one step forward two steps back or however
02:06 They want to do it and kind of talk back their increases of their rate hikes
02:10 I don't think it's gonna do the job that they hope to do and there seem very committed to doing it
02:14 So why not just go big and you know see what happens Summers wants a full point
02:18 Because he thinks that the Fed has to show that it means business when it comes to fighting inflation Jeff
02:24 Where do you stand on this all?
02:26 Yeah, I mean I think the Fed should go 75 at this point it's the market is braced for it
02:32 So why not do it? I think the trajectory of inflation is up for debate. Nobody really knows what's going to happen
02:37 So take what's in front of you do that
02:39 But to your point earlier, even if we get some sort of a pause
02:41 I think this policy is going to hit us with a lag. So what's done is done and there's going to be an impact on earnings
02:48 There's going to be an impact on the economy and of regardless of what they do over the next couple of quarters
