It was a sea of red, with only fourteen stocks in the SMP five hunder closing higher where Brignac, the chief investment officer at Invesco, says, with the inflation and recession fierce front of center, the FED has its work cut out for it. Monetary policy was too easy for too long, so they've got to make up some ground

here to try to stay ahead of it. So, unfortunately, I don't think that the news is going to get any better over the next month for the Fed in terms of inflation. The Investco chief investment officer Lori Brignac, making the comments on Bloomberg Business Week catch that program weekdays from two the vip M Wall Street Time well, the selloff has been widespread John. In fact, more companies in the Russell three thousand, excluding financial firms, are trading

below their cash holdings. Bloomberg's Doug Krisner has more The total number has surpassed the month end record set during the financial crisis. Smaller cap firms like those in the Russell are particularly sensitive to the health of the domestic economy, and now as financial conditions tighten, the concern of a

recession is in sharp relief. In the last session alone, the Russell three thousand fell three and a half percent, which lowest level since even so writers on the Bloomberg m Live blog say when a company's total equity value is less than its cash and marketable securities, bargains can possibly be found. In New York on dud Prisoner Bloomberg Daybreak. All right, Doug, thank you, And it could be another volatile day on Wall Street. Today's the quarterly event known

as triple witching. The three and a half trillion dollar options expiration mainly to short covering, and that could bring temporary relief to the stock market and meantime, in Asia, stocks tumbling to a two year lowest traders fear the global rush to hike interustrates may result in an economic downturn.

in two years. The index has dropped every day this week and is down for a seventh session. That's the longest weekly dropped since the onset of the global pandemic.

limited stimulus as volatility and the yen grows. China and Hong Kong stocks gained the only markets in Asia in the green this as Beijing's pro growth policy lended support to views that their equities will keep out performing in Singapore. Juliette Sally Bloomboad daybreak. All right, Juliet, thank you. After that Bank of Japan decision, the yen weekend as much as one point eight percent. BOJ Governor Harhiko Corona addressed

the recent sell off in the currency. The recent rapid weakening of the yen is negative for the economy as it increases uncertainties and companies will have a harder time putting together their business plans. Governor Harhiko Kuroda, speaking through an interpreter, added a reference to foreign exchange rates to its list of risks following the ends rapid weakening to

a twenty four year low this week. In a europe Christian, the Guard has told euro Area of Finance ministers at the European Central Banks new anti crisis tool will kick in if the borrowing costs for weaker nations rises too far or too fast, sources say. At a meeting in Luxembourg, Lagar told ministers that the new mechanism will be intended

to prevent irrational market movements from putting pressure on individual urinations. Well, President Biden's weighing in on the economy back here in the US, John he says a recession can be avoided. Let's get the details live from Bloomberg's need a Young. Good morning, Granita, Good morning Nathan. The President is reiterating his message that the US is in a stronger position

than any nation in the world to overcome inflation. And while he says the recession is not inevitable, he acknowledges that Americans are really down on the state of the country.

Let's get more on his remarks and his concerns about fake Twitter accounts from Bloomberg's had Ludlow. He said that whether Twitter pursues a subscription or an ad model, he's still concerned

about bots. Nonetheless, and essentially, the goal is to make Twitter an expensive platform and otherwise requiring some form of payment that disincentivizes BAT activity. During the forty five an address to employees, Boomberg's had Ludlow says, Musk did not address whether he was committed to the deal market conditions.

a decade ago. All of the candidates on WNBC were asked about their vision to improve the state, including don't bet against New York. We've been down before. We will come back even stronger.

The committee now wants to interview the wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, Jenny, after new emails were revealed from the conservative activists.

hearing and the potential legal outcome. I think they're going to be doing is trying to prove each of the seven prongs of their conspiracy. They're saying President engaged in the seventh part conspiracy. The first was the Big Law, the second was to replace the acting Attorney General. The third was to pressure Pence. The fourth was to pressure state officials. The fifth was to do the false elector's scheme, the sixth was the violent mob, and the seventh was

in action. When this was going on, Former federal prosecutor Michael Zeldin spoke with Joe Matthew on Bloomberg's Sound on.

Global News twenty four hours a day on air and on Bloomberg Quickdake powered by more than twenty seven hundred journalists and analysts and more than one twenty countries. Michael Barr and this is Bloomberg, John, Michael, thank you, five twenty on Wall Street. We are live on the Bloomberg

interr Aunt to Broker Studios. This is Bloomberg day Break. SMP five hundred has suffered its worst week since Smart twenty twenty a temple three point three percent in yesterday's cash market, the NASDAG one that dropped four percent yesterday. Let's get you set up for the training day head now. We're joined by Patrick Armstrong, the chief investment officer at Plurimi Wealth. Patrick, After Wednesday, what happened to the initial

relief after the Fed meeting Wednesday? I think it just dawned with a lot of people that the Fed seemed to indicate they weren't going to blink and that they would be willing to cause a recession to achieve their inflation targets. And I still think they will blink when push comes to shove. But the market started to price in recession during yesterday, where you can see that from actually treasuries UM got a bit of a rally late in the day as equities continued to sell off, oil

sold off. Both of those basically points of the market pricing and higher recessionary chances. Does the FED care about the markets anymore, well, especially the risk assets. They must think about it, but I don't think they're being driven by the way they they were in when Powell did is one eighty. That was driven by the equity market. Now, I think they've decided inflation so far past their targets. They can't see a bother to worry about equities at

this point. So I think inflation is first and form most in their minds. Unemployment number two and equities are distant third at this point, Do you have any thoughts on whether or not policy can have a meaningful impact on the inflation we have? I mean, filling up the car and that was seventy bucks this morning. The food store that was another two hundred. Yeah. The unfortunate consequence, Um, it's a pretty blunt instrument to deal with inflation is

interest rates. It's the way it does is it kills demands, It creates unemployment. When you don't have a job, you're not filling up your car as much. Those kind of things. So there's some pretty awful consequences from focusing on the demand side of things of the inflation when it's really the supply side of things creating at least half of the inflation right now would be supply bottlenecks, and FED policy is impotent to deal with those kind of things.

But it seems for the moment they've decided this is the policy they're going to do to fight inflation, and they think their positioned to do that. So is risk reward looking any more attractive at these levels? I had bought equities yesterday. I bought Activision, which has got a cash offer from Microsoft, which should close at June next year, and you're getting a return effect goes through. I bought

some agry business equities that looked pretty compelling to me. Mosaic, the largest podcast reserves, is trading at about eight times earnings right now. And corporate bonds for the first time in many many years. Um, well maybe since they looked attractive as well right at the bottom. But you're getting yield above excuse me, expected inflation now on investment grade debts, so I actually think risk return corporate bonds investment grade

looks pretty attractive now as well. Now I have investors adjusted to the tighter monetary policy, do they now have to start focusing on adjusting to a different earnings picture ahead. Um, it's really shocking me how analyst expectations. They came into this year expecting the S and P five to make two hundred and twenty dollars a share. Analysts are now expecting two hundred and twenty eight dollars a share in

two So earnings estimates haven't rolled over. I do think that has to happen based on a slowing economy and probably a bit of a margin squeeze on a lot of companies. SMP delivered twelve point seven percent profit margin, which is unprecedented, and anytimes you say unprecedented, that's usually the period you start to get a mean reversion. So I wouldn't be surprised to see margin expectations come down

and earnings per share expectations come down. But I think the markets front running earnings forecast at this point where it sold off while earnings have been revised higher this year, Well, is maybe an unanswerable question at this point, at least with any degree of accuracy. But is it a bottom for stocks that we've already passed um. I actually think we might be around the bottom now, but there's going

to be a lot of moving parts. I think the stocks that are growing earnings are beneficiaries of their own assets that are in high demands. So I think commodity stocks have really be sold off over the last month. They've got great returns here today. I do think there's going to be some buy the dips there and I think they're going to blow away earnings expectations. But I think that the no earnings tech type companies, I think

they still have a lot further to fall. I think there's still flocky valuations despite sell offs in a lot of those kind of companies. I think there may still be another seventy in those kind of stocks to fall. All right, Patrick, thanks a lot of appreciate that. Patrick Armstrong always a pleasure the chief investment officer at Flaimi Wealth.

And as we look at futures after yesterday's sell off, smp EMUNI futures right now thirty five points higher, that's up one percent, the DAL futures of two D two points that's up eight sense of a percent, and that as the community futures one six points higher, a rimes at one point one percent. As we look at the treasuries right now, the ten year yield three one, that's up two basis points. Two year three sixteen, that's up seven basis points.

Yesterday, the SMP five hundred closed at an eighteen month low, market surrounding off a week highlighted by interest rate increases, including the Fed's biggest move since Greg Jensen, co Chief investment Officer at Bridgewater Associate says the Fed has a difficult

job ahead. They're serious about two percent inflation. They're gonna have to crack the U S economy hard, and it's then gonna take the easing tops set that and then the recovery before you see a bottom. So that's a that's a long process. Um In the end, we think the Federal blink and choose to sustain asset prices lower than they are today. Greg Jensen at Bridgewater Associate says stocks may still fall lower because unlike other bear markets,

there's not support from an accommodative accommodative central bank. To other market notes, this morning, before the opening bail to fetch here, Jpal makes welcoming parks at in the inaugural conference or the international role of the dollar today also triple witching Friday, the three and a half trillion on our options expiration may lead to short covering that could bring temporary relief for the stock market when the yen

The following is an editorial from Bloomberg Opinion. Although US public school students faced plenty of challenges during the pandemic, most of them could at least count on one benefit. A guaranteed lunch waivers issued by the federal government in have enabled schools to serve meals free of charge to all students. With the waivers set to expire later this month, many of those kids are now at risk of going hungry for the sake of their health and education. It's

imperative for Congress to step in. The wisest course would be for lawmakers to extend the waivers for the upcoming school year while mandating that states transition back to means testing. In more than two years in schools first closed their doors, America's students are still struggling to recover. It shouldn't be asking too much to ensure that they all have enough to eat.

comfortable with a seventy five basis point hike. We have to recognize, though, that it hasn't happened in almost thirty years, so it can be jarring, and the digestion is going to take time. Uh.

be a big part of where stocks go this year. Uh. And so earnings is going to be very important, But we're also going to want to keep very close eye on the key data indicators that are going to determine the path ahead for the set as well. Um. We know the Fed wants to front load rate hikes um, but they're also clear they are very data dependent. We just saw an enormous pivot over the course of a

few days. The Fed had anticipated raising rates about fifty basis points until they got cp I UH and inflation expectations last Friday and made the decision to do seventy basis points. So we want to to follow that too, because there is no set path. Well, what what does this all say about the margins and perhaps margin compression, Well, that is certainly going to be an issue, but that

happens in slowdowns. Of course, this is a rather rapid slowdown, just given that the FED is truly engineering it UM, so we're going to want to follow that closely, and they're going to be some companies that fair better than others. So it's a time to be rather discerning and selective. Is risk we ward looking any more attractive at these levels? Oh? Yes it is uh for for those long term investors. UH. If if you in to today or started to dollar cost average into the market, I think you'd be quite

happy a year from now, two years from now. UM. There is though a fair amount of turbulence going on, and as earnings get downwardly revived for a number of companies UM, there are going to be even more opportunities presenting themselves. It's hard to time at those who I do think opportunities are are starting to abound now and UM markets markets look rather attractive. Well what the sectors

do you like over others? Well, technology has been beaten down so much now that doesn't mean that there isn't more to go UM, But UM being selective avoiding the SpecTec UM finding those companies that have strong balance sheets, good cash flow UM. Ultimately they could provide very very good growth UM In a in a challenging slowdown can be a pretty good alternate of two other risk assets. They can be absolutely UM bonds are are looking a lot more attractive than they did uh and, and of

course it's important to be well diversified. So so this is a time for investors, especially if they were underweight fixed income UM, to to start to to increase exposure. I will give the caveat though, that I think we want to be underweighting risky credit in this environment. Yeah, well, well why is that just because of the path forward? Yes, because because we are in a slowdown, because profit margins

are going to be coming under pressure. Uh so, so we want to be more more selective UM and and air on the side of up quality, what do you look for when you seek out the capitulation in the markets? What signs are you looking for? Uh? Well, UM, there are a variety of signs that that technicians look for. I do think one one measure that has worked well in the asked is hitting that high level on the VIX, that forty or so level on the VIX. We certainly

saw that as a very helpful indicator UM. In march of UM. There there are a variety of others. UM. I do also believe that UM the trigger for a market turnaround. Right now, UM could very well be another pivot by the FED, a more dovish pivot this time UM,

and that won't happen overnight. Right. We know the FED wants to continue to be aggressive in the shorter term, but given that they're going to be data dependent, UM, they could they could pivot again, get more dovish, and that could be a real catalyst for stocks moving up. Very interesting. Christina Hooper, chief market to strategist at invest Goo. Nathan, all right, John, thank you, it is on Wall Street

time for our Bloomberg Law Report. Let's get to a legal story we're watching this morning, a closely watched case that tested the boundaries of applying human fights to animals. In a divided decision, New York's highest Court rule that Happy the elephant is not entitled to legal personhood and a right to bodily liberty. In two thousand six, Happy became the first elephant to pass a mirror recognition test

that indicates self awareness like humans. Animal rights advocates argued that should mean the cheeks should be considered autonomous and qualified for the same protections against unlawful imprisonment as humans. The decision means Happy will remain alone in a one acre enclosure at the Bronx Zoo, where she's been kept for forty five years and for more. Bloomberg's June Grosso speaks with Elizabeth Stein of the Non Human Rights Project.

Happy is New York Council. What do you say to the people who think this legal fight is absurd because an animal is not a human being. Well, it's the argument is that an animal is not a human. That is absolutely true. We are not arguing that an animal

is a human. What we are arguing is that human beings have certain rights, such as the fundamental right to bodily liberty protected by habeas corpus, which we believe is not limited to human beings, and based on the extraordinary intrinsic nature of elephants, their autonomy, their extraordinary cognitive complexity, we believe that Happy as an elephant, is entitled to the recognition of that same right that a human being has.

The fact that a human being has this right should never preclude a non human animal such as Happy the elephant, from having that same right, and in the eyes of the law, A person is not the same thing as the human beings. They're not synonymous terms. A person is merely anything, whether it be an individual or an entity that has the capacity for a right. You are asking the court to make a novel ruling here. What was

your argument? We presented the factual basis for Happy autonomy, for the fact that she is this autonomoust extraordinarily contentive ly complex non human animals who suffers the same way that a human being would suffer in this imprisonment, that she should be out traveling miles a day as elephants do foraging planning. Elephants have a true sense of self. They remember the past, they know the present, and can plan for the future. The females such as Happy are matriarchs.

They are in heard, They mourn the dead, They play, they frolic, they roam. So what we were saying to the court is based on common law principles of science and fairness and equity and justice. More than anything, the court needed to evolve the common law to be able to recognize Happy common law right to bodily liberty, and once recognizing this right, her imprisonment is unlawful and the remedy for Habeas Corpus is released from the unlawful imprisonment.
