Peter lynch was a guest on Bloomberg bay state business heard weekdays from two to 5 p.m. on Bloomberg one O 6 one Boston and our Boston listeners can catch the full conversation coming up in the 4 p.m. hour of today's show and as a Bloomberg business flash Tom and Paul Karen thanks so much for being keen futures up 54 Nice lift to the market More buoyant in hour ago but we're watching NASDAQ 100 leading the way Right now on this I believe we're in the year three We're starting year three of this pandemic And there's a belief of all the different guests we've spoken to Over time these horrific things become a common cold We speak with Amish adulter Johns Hopkins University It would be great if it tilts towards being a cold but I don't think we can say that with certainty yet I think there's a possibility that that may be the case based on some of the early case of series that are coming from South Africa that were not seeing as many people being hospitalized as not many people not as many people needing ICU beds or needing oxygen and a lot of people getting picked up incidentally when they're in the hospital for other reasons That's all reassuring But we need more data to be able to say that with certainty And we also need to see what happens when we extrapolate South Africa's experience to countries that are older like the U.S. And it's also the case that the U.S. has more vaccination So this would be a great thing I think all of us are cautiously optimistic It would be it's interesting because it seems to be converging upon this consensus and that's a good thing because we're not seeing outliers of severe disease yet I suspect we will but hopefully this is kind of the step that the virus takes to become something that we deal with more frequently on an annual basis that has the ability to get around our immunity but not make us too sick but I think we still have to wait for one more time What is your waiting to the calendar to the fact that there are waves to the autumn and into winter whether it's a cold the flu that we had amateurs would call it what's the weighting of the seasonality versus all our other fears Well I do think that coronaviruses are going to ultimately end up becoming seasonal Because all of the other ones do This one just takes some time to get to seasonality because there's not enough immunity in the population But I do think we will see intensification to spread when it gets colder when people move indoors and when spread of the virus is more efficient It's just going to take some time to see complete that complete stark seasonality Right now we do see some seasonality but they're still transmission going on in the summer because there's too much too many people that were not immune Given what we know about Amy Kron and what it can do getting around certain immunizations whether it's vaccinated individuals or people who've been previously infected what does it mean to be fully vaccinated Does it mean a booster shot as well Well I think you have to remember that vaccines are not all or all or nothing It's not on and off switch There's a spectrum of protection that they provide And even if o'clock is able to get around some of the immunity which is what likely the case it's not able to get around what matters protection against serious disease hospitalization and death And when you think about boosters to me the threshold has always been preventing serious illness hospitalization and death And that's why I'm somebody who thinks boosters belong to people that are above the age of 65 high risk conditions those who got the J&J vaccine For the healthy population it's a little bit unclear whether they're needed or not even though the CDC updated their recommendations And there is some controversy in the field There may be a need with omega to make an omega specific booster And then that's a little bit different But these first generation boosters I think in a healthy population you're just really pushing off a breakthrough infection time in the future You're not really giving a great amount of protection in terms of what it actually gives you But if you're older or have a high risk condition yes definitely clear thing Clear benefits there Doctor delta before we let you go I'd love you to weigh in on the mandate in New York City now that all private sector employees get vaccinated Is this the course of travel that you expect not only in New York City but around the country and around the world I think it's going to be certain cities to try and do this It's interesting because New York City already has one of the highest vaccination rates in the country It would be great if that was going on in parts of the south where the vaccination rates are low But what we'll find probably is some states are already highly vaccinated are going to become more boosted and more highly vaccinated while the rest of the country kind of language is at that lower rate of vaccination Like West Virginia 41% fully vaccinated So I think what we're kind of still in that two track pandemic but I think that because the ocean mandate predictably got tied up in ports you're going to see local municipalities and states try the same thing I'm a sergeant Johns Hopkins University They're fired up on where we are in this pandemic Well I look at the market and in talking to Dan Ives today of Apple I went back and I looked 20 years Apple's gone up 36% per year And there's been more than 36 times across 20 years not fooling There's been more than 36 times where people basically said OMG it's over Yeah Like ten days ago Right Cell phones iPhones you know it's done Yeah It's just an extraordinary story and it's a story that's become so ingrained in our lives You just think about the products and services that you use from Apple And is it over owned I don't think so as long as they continue to put up the growth and the growth just doesn't happen It is the result of extraordinary amounts of research and development they put in year in and year out to come up with these new products new services this is a company I always tell people they've earned their returns Everything that they've put up there I think they've earned you Just look at the top line growth rate The profits they put up the free cash flow they put up the numbers supported Is it an institutional darling I mean you used to Yeah You know used to trot around the country when one of the true experts in media where there was always a darling Yep Are they over owned I don't think so I think this is almost just one of a given like Amazon as well I kind of think that's it now entering that Pantheon there of stocks you have to explain away if you're a portfolio manager and you go to you make the rounds and you talk to your investors whether it's a pension fund somewhere and you say how come you don't own this Why don't you own Apple Oh I think I've got a better play It's one of those names You just kind of have to own And of course when you look up the holder's list it's everybody in the world I mean the Vanguard is a BlackRock but even more just bank Sovereign wealth funds everybody owns it The hedge funds even hedge funds get paid to be counter you know culture They own apple and then they just train around it It's not our job to say buy hold sell but I'm gonna point out mister.

Bloomberg Daybreak: Asia
Election Day 2020: Rick Davis
"Joining us live is Bloomberg's Rick Davis, partner at Stone Court Capital has run a good number of campaigns, including John McCain's 2008 Rick Again. Thank you so much for joining us. My pleasure. Yeah, The Democrats seem focused on Pennsylvania Joe Biden yesterday back again today, Camilla Harris today saying it be decided they're Biden claims it's his first home. Polling has been good. But now the NBC Marist poll today shows it tightening. Where does this stand? Well, it's on the horse race side. You can't tell, but it's been a very stable election. Even in Pennsylvania, Biden held the lead anywhere from 4 to 10 points, depending on which poll and at what point in this campaign. But that's the nature of this campaign is so unusual is how little has really changed lately. I mean, when you were tracking polls and you're only you know, seeing Ah pointer to tightening or loosening in the course of an election. It shows you a very stable electric. In other words, people have made up their minds and we've seen in the last month. People are voting in record numbers during these early votes, And so my guess is Pennsylvania. I would say. Friends toward Biden because he's never been behind in any public or private survey I've seen, but you know, we're see what happens on Election Day. Yeah, Also Florida I mean, for the most part of Florida Early on, and who knows early eyes? It goes for for Biden. They're saying that it's over. Yeah. If Florida goes for Biden, there's really no way for Donald Trump. To find a path to victory mean Biden start with some of the Trump states that he won before pretty much in Hiss. Calm. Michigan, Minnesota, Wisconsin. These are all states that Biden is right now tracking an almost 10 in some cases, 12 points. So you take those states away from Donald Trump. And he can't afford to lose those Bay States and the biggest one that he Has in play 29 electoral votes is Florida now have the two things have the pollsters learned anything since 2016 number one and have the Democrats learned anything since 2016 I'll take the last one. First. What the Democrats learned is that they needed to pick their spots as to where they need to win in orderto get the necessary electoral votes and And Hillary Clinton's campaign spread themselves all over states that were completely unnecessary. They had people in Arizona and other places the week before the election thinking we're going to turn Red States blue. What? What Joe Biden has shown is the discipline to park himself. As you said earlier in Pennsylvania, every surrogate he has in the country was in there today. And he's planted a flag. If I win Pennsylvania, I win the presidency and I'm fighting here. And he has Ah, just in just in the past hour in campaigning, talking to young talking to students, saying that they that they are the key. I mean, the Democrats have needed, you know, asking that question to motivate young voters. Michelle Obama's been beating this drum now since Since 2016 the young have to be showing up. Are we seeing that they will Yeah, There are record turnouts bank on Which state you're talking about in Pennsylvania is one of them where under 25 8. Voters are starting to show up in much bigger numbers than they did in 2016. Now whether or not that follows on Election day. These are all the early voters that we can track. But if that follows up on Election Day, the young voters could actually make a big impact on the state like Pennsylvania. OK, let's and and the presidency, of course, is what everybody focuses on the most for very good reason. But But let's let's look at the Senate here. I mean, if you're a Democrat, and you're looking at this, you're saying, Wow, we have a really good shot that this could flip. Yeah, His Senate is ah, Titan. There's no question about that. Republicans have probably five or six states where they have likely swings to the Democratic side, potentially. And they only have one pickup in in in. Ah, Alabama. What is interesting? State toe Watch is Georgia. Not only do you have a Senate race up for grabs, But you have a special election for a senator to Senate seats up in Georgia this year. And Georgia has a funky law where you have to get over 50% of the vote, or you go to a runoff. And at this point, neither one of the incumbent Republicans there look like they're going to be able to get to 50%. So you could have the control. The Senate decided months later in a special election on top of the special elections you already have? Yeah, possibly in in January. Now now vote counting. Of course, you know, we hoped to see something tomorrow probably won't. But the president has said that he may claim victory on on election night anyway, both sides of lawyered up. This could be a mess as well. I don't want to be negative, Bob, but but this could be a mess. Well, The good news is states run their elections and so unless they decide to defer to the president states, which would be extraordinary, right? No, no state Tends to do that voluntarily, then they're going to count at their own pace. In fact, we've never had an election where the actual elections certifications. We're on election night. They always take days later. In order to facilitate all the ballot collection and count all the ballots, And then the state certifies. There's there. It just simply doesn't happen on election night in any election we've ever had. And so I think that most of the states if their discipline and they follow their own rules, they'll pay no attention to the president's protestations. He did this in 2018 during the Florida governor's race where he said, Oh, you know, all the votes were counted, and we ought to just move on. We're Yeah, we're going to have to leave it there. Thank you so much and will watch for you and David and Jeannie. With our special election coverage
