mark: correct. central banks are relying on erroneous cpi and other inflation measures, as i point out in the book. and it is crazy for them to be relying on these numbers, and even insinuated movement when there is a .5% change. it does not make sense. the other thing i point out is that prices are rising because of valuation, so it is pretty interesting to see how a young generation of people are relying more and more on bitcoin and some of these other currencies. the currencies that are fixed in terms of the amount that can be generated, so if that is the case, then the home movement is toward a more stable kind of currency, and the printing press is now running overtime. so it will be a really interesting development. we are in exciting times when it comes to currencies. francine: you are a, you know, bull when it comes to stocks and the currencies. is it part of a bubble that burst this year? mark: of course there are a lot of bubbles i can burst this year because of the kind of liquidity that

mark cuban is a billionaire. mark cuban is not a genius. you think that would make him very grateful for america, a country were geniuses, people not geniuses can make a billion dollars. but he's not grateful. he just announced that his nba team is no longer playing the national anthem. you are not going to hear it anymore. that's how much he dislikes the country that helped them win. we've got details right after this. oh, you think this is just a community center? no. it's way more than that. cause when you hook our community up with the internet... boom! look at ariana, crushing virtual class. jamol, chasing that college dream. michael, doing something crazy. this is the place where we can show the world what we can do. comcast is partnering with 1000 community centers to create wifi-enabled lift zones, so students from low-income families can get the tools they need to be ready for anything. oh we're ready. ♪ ♪ >> tucker: ma >> tucker: mark cuban is a billionaire. he owns the dallas mavericks, the nba team. like other nba owners, he

it's colorful unconventional and alternative parts marked $25.00 as a kind of artist's village in the heart of berlin on the banks of the play river normally some $200.00 creatives work here including d.j.'s artists and musicians but the project has been hit hard by the pandemic. you can't do any cultural events you can't hold concerts we can barely cater for people and that really hurts . when the co-operative project celebrated its opening in may 2017 things were very different there was a lot of partying with no need for social distancing. but the people involved here are not letting the pandemic get them down musician hunters who stood and runs a recording studio today he's working with german d.j. lecky who's making the best of the situation. i play for me this is actually been a good break for me not being on the tour so much for a change i spent a lot of time here at heights marked a bit in the studio almost every day working on new projects i've written a whole new album over the last year even though it's marked off what's marked was extremely important for us a studio operat

mark: absolutely. you can look at weighted average maturities of certain mutual funds in the fixed income space and see they are pretty long already. they believe this cash wave is coming, and they are trying to extend out to get as much yield as they can in hopes that when the cash waves come, they will at least have captured some of those higher rate levels to try to boost their overall returns. we do think that will likely continue as this big cash wave does flood the front in in the belly of the rates curve -- front end and the belly of the rates curve. jonathan: just quickly, because we only have about 30 seconds, do we have an asset shortage? mark: yes, there is a collateral shortage. i know that is hard to believe when you're talking about the types of deficit that we have, but right now, technically at the front end of the curve, there's going to be more cash that is available and not enough assets. and again, that is going to put upward pressure on prices, downward pressure on rates. jonathan:

we want to thank sean and mark levin, of course. bill hemmer, we are about to be joined, i understand, by the former president of the united states who you know gave the presidential medal of freedom in 2020 at the state of the union address to rush limbaugh. president trump, are you with me? >> i am and it was a great honor to do so when we gave the medal of freedom, it was something special, we gave it during the state of the union address and it was especially half the room, half the room went crazy and half the room, they knew he should get it but it was special >> mr. president, thank you for joining us, when was the last time you spoke with rush limbaugh? >> three or four days ago, his fight was very, very courageous and he was very sick, it was something i was not going to be beaten but you wouldn't know it. he is married to an incredible woman, kathryn who really, every time i spoke to him he would tell me how great she was, she took such great care. i mean he, in theory, could have been gone four months ago, really. he was

mark: i do. what is remarkable that is happening in the rate market is that the fed appears to be using control of both ends of the curve for different reasons. they are losing control of the front end because of all of the reserves and cash coming into the market and that is what is pushing markets to zero and at times negative. at the back end of the curve, the fed appears to be losing control because the market is very unclear as to what the fed's reaction will be to sharply rising interest rates. no one wants to step in and catch the falling knife. the fed has to come in and act as a circuit breaker to some extent at the backend of the curve. we think they need to say something akin to what the ecb has been signaling, that they are monitoring markets and aware that the high interest rates can be a problem at the back end of the curve, and they are ready to use all of their tools to ensure maximum employment and stable price objectives. if they don't do that, the market will be questioning, ho

mark: interesting. there was almost a moment in the fall, last year, europe was sitting, dealing with the virus, at the time it was out of control in the u.s. things have changed a lot over the course of the last six months. look at the progress the u.s. is making in terms of its vaccination program compared to the situation we find ourselves in from a european perspective. from a policy standpoint and a delivery standpoint, the u.s. is on the march. you see the sales retail numbers released in the u.s. yesterday. superstrong. you are putting money into people's hands and that money is being spent. you see a much more vibrant picture. from an investment point of view, as a fixed income investor, we are starting to see u.s. yields lift more rapidly than european yields. that, in a sense, is helping the dollar. dollar underperformance may be behind us. the other way investors are looking at this is looking at stocks. u.s. equities continue to outperform their global peers. guy: will european bonds outperf
