BLOOMBERG Bloomberg Markets Americas July 12, 2024

Lets get some deeper knowledge into what is going on with scarlet fu. Scarlett we saw indexes fall to their lows right around the time apple made the announcement. We know there was talk about the increased number of cases across certain parts of the United States. Apple says it will shut down 11 Stores Across florida, north carolina, south carolina, and arizona because of increased cases. That probably dragged down some of the other indexes. Financials are the laggards right now in advance of the feds stress tests. The central bank will consider the virus impact to guide whether banks can pay dividends. Small caps were hoping to lead on the way up, now helping to lead on the downside, although we are making a bit of a comeback. Through the 42 level but could not hold on. One thing i could not keep my eye on of is wirecard, the train wreck of the week. The stock rounded off a twoday 75 plunge in germany. Short covering could be limiting the losses as investors brace for default. Able to release their annual report because 2. 1 billion dollars in cash is unaccounted for. We head into the weekend, one thing to keep in mind, there may be a case of not wanting to be too long heading into the weekend. Trader wrote, investors will be focused on the president s campaign rally, specifically what would be the optics of a packed arena with or without masks in a part of the country where the number of Coronavirus Infections is starting to increase. Vonnie thank you, scarlet fu. Speakinghair has been we were listening a couple of days this week on capitol hill. Today he is honoring juneteenth, talking about the downturn worsening in inequality. On thisop billing friday, which is of course juneteenth. Coronavirus slump has worsened economic inequality that has long existed in america, creating more suffering for low income americans and minorities. For more, lets bring in Alicia Levine of bank of new york mellon. What do you make of the amount of the talk of inequality, and what can be done . The stock market is an alltime highs and does not seem to be going anywhere. Alicia nice to talk to you again. The issue of the downturn is problematic. Even as the market moves ever higher, we know the real Unemployment Rate in the u. S. Is probably close to 25 Million People when you take in all of those categories of those working parttime, employed but not working. It is true that minority communities have always felt the pain more in times of downturn. I think it is great that Corporate America appears to be some ofd to righting that as the economy recovers. It does feel like business is taking a role here, which is great. Vonnie what about the leadership of technology and Growth Stocks . Does not continue indefinitely . Alicia the thing about the Growth Stocks, the five large cap techs have outperformed the rest of the s p by 30 percent year to date. That is the largest disconnect ever in markets. Stocks are now 12 of the market, which is enormous. It was not even the case in 1999. It is not entirely built on air because these Business Models have changed and have benefited from the lockdown. If you think about where growth goes after this, lets get past the recovery phase. What is the steadystate after that . A loan growth world in a low growth real economy world. The assets that to the best are the Growth Stocks. That is what these stocks are reflecting. They have runway into the future. Vonnie what are you doing about treasuries, as the typical portfolio gone by the wayside . Alicia i dont think so. Even though yields are historically low, you still get protections from volatility. We saw that last week when the market sold off 7 . You have gotten protection from treasuries. Bonds areh historically expensive, you need them from protection from your other risk assets as a hedge. We think its important that you have some exposure to treasuries. You will get the protection, even though yields are so low. Vonnie do you anticipate any kind of a vshape recovery . If not, what should one do for the rest of the summer . Alicia thank you for that question because our team just put out our new model for the quarter. Optimistic in the Second Quarter and more optimistic in the Third Quarter that we could get a vshape recovery. That is our most likely scenario. There is clearly risk to the downside for other scenarios playing out. But we think there is a lot of evidence that the consumer and the individual has an appetite to reengage with the economy much more than we thought would have been possible three months ago. There is less likely to be shutdowns, even though the news today about apple shutting some stores there will be spikes here in there, it is unavoidable. We are living with the pandemic, the way that sweden lived with a pandemic. There will be news from time to time that threatens that narrative. Ultimately, for the most part, in the short term, for the next six months, you will get that vshape recovery only because the fall was so deep and terrible, the data will be better the next six months, and we will be flattered by the fact that we dropped so low. Vonnie thank you for joining us, Alicia Levine. I want to reiterate some of the headlines coming out of the powell event. Speaking with Loretta Mester through a Video Conference about building a resilient workforce in the era of covid19 with a acus on youngstown, ohio, year after the gm plant was closed there. Really focusing on inequality, low income workers and minorities, paying tribute to juneteenth. He says it is not lost on me that we are meeting on juneteenth amid a renewed reckoning of racial injustice. He says the spread of the virus has created hardship and suffering.

Marcus it has been a tough couple of months for all of us in the industry, but today is a big day. Were opening red rooster creamery. This is our to go shop, take out and delivery. We had a line out the door. We are fortunate because we have a lot of space, we have an outdoor patio where people can order, sit outside, very casual. Anyone that has outdoor facilities can open and be quite successful. Its a combination of technology, great product, and outdoor access, keeping it super safe and clean.

What are your thoughts around the systemic difficulties in the United States . Marcus it is definitely a big moment for america to look at its core issues with health care, unemployment. You cannot build a system at the same time as you are under his pandemic. Sweden took a very different path from the rest of the world. That is going to be argued in a post discussion about that. But what sweden does have is a working health care system, unemployment system, and that is exactly what america needs. You think about this pandemic, it really shows which countries are prepared to deal with Something Like this. Black and brown communities, marginalized communities are being hit twice as much, and it is being linked to not have great access to health care. We have to learn from this time. The richest country in the world, we have to take care of each other.
