A hectic month. There is a lot of uncertainty with regard to the world in general. Jonathan jim b juncker joining us now. What a week in this market. The equity market breaking down by a little more than one and a half percent on the s p 500 but it is the absence of the bid in the bond market hitting the attention of you and i and everyone else. We are selling off, not driving yields lower. Yields are higher by four basis points. What is the signal you take away from that . Jim a worrisome signal. You are right, the fed is doing qe, buying 120 billion dollars of bonds a month, the stock market flirting with a 10 correction. That has all the hallmarks of a classic risk off rally, that bond yields should be falling as treasuries catch a bid as everyone rushes into safety. None of that is happening. The take away the market is still worried about uncertainty over next weeks election, uncertainty about the rising coronavirus, and potential or more fiscal stimulus and or inflation. All of t
President biden, if he does become president , can be. Can he reach across the isle . Aisle he reach across the . He spoke and talked about the need to unite america at this moment. Oflor i think thats one the key points coming out of this election. Its clear that perhaps maybe by popular vote or electoral vote, there is a clear winner, but it is deeply divided, and there is not a clear mandate and we are seeing that in the house and senate, that there was not a sweep. There was a much less strong mandate that we saw coming in through the polls. Can we at least find something we can agree on in terms of stimulus and pass that . Theine lets bring into conversation our reporter who covers a lot of what is going on in washington with our Bloomberg Government product. This message we heard from the former Vice President , joe biden biden, a few minutes ago that basically, the government is not your enemy. The idea that he, if elected president , will represent all people. The idea that he
Lets get to dohm. Were watching markets for the s p 500 that have posted about a 1 gain over the last three months and for those people who are keeping track of some of the election markets statistics, its a big number. In the three months prior, some analysts and strategists note that if the market is higher in the three months before an election, its the incumbent party that wins. Well see if that trend plays out. You can see for the s p 500 in that three month span we got a 1 gain entirely because of just today. You wonder whether or not that could play into some of those associations or correlations people talk about with regard to markets and the election overall. But beyond that, there are some interesting themes developing over the course of the past week if you take a look at the outperformers and underperformers, many of them have to deal with the cyclical and value oriented Sectors Technology versus Communication Services, there is a bit of outperformance in Communication Ser

Every single time we get an up opening people say, okay, i guess that selloff is over and when we get the printed selloff people say this selloff is going to go on for ages. I urge people to step back and recognize we are in a period where theres a lot of vacuum, a lot of people trying to buy when its going up, a lot of people trying to sell when its going down and just interpret that as just being enthusiasm, greed and then fear and accept it that its here to stay because its really the undercurrent behind these moves. Okay. And what does that mean in terms of this socalled playbook that you often offer people who listen to what you have to say sure.
