that is still mildly negative. you can borrow from -- bro at a low rate. affordability, what is your number one message to shareholders,, and clients right now? what is the number one to do list? we are on a secular bull market. i think we are still in the middle innings of this thing. when investors here secular bull market's they think it goes on forever and ever. five-year-old birthday parties corrupt and tears at any point cap -- parties can corrupt in tears at any point. that doesn't mean short-term timing and trading. make sure you use the tools like

rebalancing, moving in and out of asset classes based on depreciation. you whenportfolio tell it is time to do something. don't worry about listening to me or any other yahoo!. >> coming up, we will speak to another one. a conversation with olivia sterns. it is bloomberg surveillance, stay with us.

>> it is bloomberg surveillance pay let's get right to our headlines. has it.w adam johnson >> we're going to start and south korea where the trial has come for 15 crew members of that ferry that sank and killed hundreds of teenagers. -- the crew is charged with homicide. a separate trial will be held for the ferries operator.

prosecutors's blame a lack of sleep for that accident that injured tracy morgan and killed another man. the driver of the walmart truck had not slept more than 24 hours before the accident. the truck crashed into the back of his limo bus. the strangeness continues, the latest chapter in the saga of donald sterling and the los angeles clippers. reversed himself. he says he will not support the $2 billion sale of the team to formerosoft -- two microsoft ceo steve ballmer. he also says he will pursue a billion-dollar antitrust suit against the nba. those are the top headlines. i have to go right to our man josh green of bloomberg businessweek. >> i cover washington. usually when you see this kind of flip-flopping you are talking about it presidential candidates. for the sport. starling doesn't seem to want to go away. in the process of

rehabilitating his image, if that is even possible. >> if he tries to extract as , is the last for a desperate man? >> he has extract quite a different guy who was booted out of the leak for making racist comments. he is probably coming out far ahead from where most people think you ought to come out ahead and he doesn't seem to have a strategist or publicist. of >> no moral compass. >> it is unbelievable. i wonder if none of this had happened and he just decided six months ago to sell the clippers, he wouldn't have gotten $2 billion. brilliance.wacky >> tough to tag him with the word brilliance. it is wacky something. let's talk about hillary clinton. is it a book tour, a precampaign to, an apology to her? -- an

tour?y to our -- apology her first up was an interview with diane sawyer of abc. >> am going to decide when it feels right for me to decide. >> by the end of this year? >> certainly not before then. i will be on the way to making a decision by the end of the year. rocks but probably not announced by next year? clock syme not positive about that. i think the way i make decisions, that is probably likely. she isary clinton on how not ready to make a decision. >> i haven't made a decision yet. >> it is a big decision. josh green of bloomberg businessweek, who has written a lot on hillary posco 2008 campaign joins us now. , shellary in her book stopped trying to finesse and nuance her iraq war vote.

this is clearly a setup for a campaign. >> the book makes and no hard character. gates -- aapose bob lot of unsettled scores about who was good, who wasn't, what happened behind the scenes. the clinton book and has none of has none of this stuff. the biggest problem she had in 2008 was her vote for the iraq war. having covered through that campaign, she went through contortions to explain how she didn't really vote for the war and she doesn't bear responsibility for it. here she comes out and says it was a mistake to vote for that. clear is that off the table long before a campaign ever begins. i see this as a precampaign. after she ended her candidacy, you wrote about all the infighting that took place in 2008.

sameshe go back to that well of consultants and managers? clock stoutly -- >> hourly the answer is no. shia still in contact with a lot of these people and she needs to get a new campaign team. >> i would say the group reviews -- the book reviews are skating. a success the president had with that little book. did she try to do too much? isn't too much of a reach to write 630 pages? garnerpurpose was not to excellent reviews from book credits. it was to set the stage for presidential campaigns. and that is exactly what it has done. we are talking about was not in the book rather than some terrible confession or some attack on somebody else that would have started a food fight. that is what hillary clinton does not want in this stage.

>> there is another curious she disclosed yesterday. she said she and her husband bill were broke when they left the white house. she said they did not have a lot of money saved up after the presidency. >> they had to pay for whitewater. for chelsea's pay education, for the house. does this not ring true? >> it is narrowly true in the sense that they had to take a the from their friend, governor of virginia, to buy the house. i think they made that money back within the first six weeks of bill clinton's post-presidency. it is not true anymore and it doesn't sound right in an economy where many people are struggling. she will have to sharpen those political instincts. she has been off the campaign trail for six years now. >> as i do with ben bernanke, they serve in public office and

make no money in public office, they deserve every nicholas beating fees they get coming up. i totally disagree with the media. >> don't cry poor. >> we're going to be right back with the ceo of morgan trusts.

>> ecd emerging markets and you go to the world cup in brazil -- you see the emerging markets and then you go to markets in brazil -- though to the world cup in brazil. >> he thinks the world cup is going to be a net economic benefit for the country. he says reform is on the way, which will ultimately lead to a more robust economy. he particularly is bullish on the beverage sector, anything with an cymer exposure and agriculture. this is a big consumer play for him. listen to this. >> he has shown a great deal of control and restraint. he has been very logical in his

decision. >> we were talking about various leaders. i was asking about food and. he was responding to my question, what leader has impressed you most this year? he said putin has done a very good job showing restraint and knows he doesn't want to cross the line. he thinks the situation in ukraine will be resolved over the next year. >> greatly appreciated. liz ann sonders with charles , we are looking at emerging markets. is that where we were earlier, and overinvestment in the united states? >> we have been at negative emerging markets until the middle of last year and then became a little bit more positive. that of origins is -- the divergences of the emerging markets will stay. whether you are on the losing or winning spectrum is whether you are a deficit nation or have an inflation problem that may prevent your schedule bank --

your central bank from seizing up near the export nations are doing very well paid the commodity producing nations are less well. they'll be the name of the game to the extent you have managers. i think more of an active approach to emerging markets as opposed to passive. >> jim grant was on the air a couple of weeks ago. he says you have to look at gas problems. you see value in emerging-market specifically? i know you can't talk stocks. but sectors as much as you can. >> we don't even go down to the sector level. the consumption end of commodities, we believe the commodity super cycle ended in the end of 2011. you tend to go into the long up super cycle and then flatten out for about a decade with a lot of volatility. in general been on the consumption side of commodities is probably going to be the

winner. i think she just described china. >> we like china. >> let's get you a data check. we have an economic bit that includes wholesale inventory at 10 a.m.. also jolt's job openings are due out. bloomberg surveillance on bloomberg television and radio. our conversation with our guest -- i am tom keene. with mia scarlet fu and liz ann -- with me is scarlet fu and liz ann sonders. they are located at the storied withss of 50 south street a focus on integrity for decades . they have managed money for the well heeled. the dividend was not cut or eliminated in the most recent financial crisis. now with low yields, financial repression ever present, frederick witold joins us.

he's chief executive officer. as you speak to people, they are dealing with financial rotation -- financial repression. has it changed the way we manage money? >> i think it has in the sense that what our plans are looking for our solutions. it has taken on a much much higher of scrutiny with our clients than before. it used to be a large blue-chip kind of growth and now the search for yield is a global market we operate in. >> how do you respond to traditional northern trust client who says i just need to make four percent and you as a fiduciary cannot make that happen?

>> it is about asset allocation and looking for growth. we are often emerging markets so we ratchet that back. it is looking for yield in alternatives. that takes a different time frame. the righting combination of investments to get the return the clients needs on the risk adjustment expectations they have. >> i want to get your take on financial institutions in this day and a. -- day and age. systemically important financial institution, what is your take on that? >> i think it is a process to analyze the impact of the financial management business. being a large investment manager with over five -- with over $900 watch it very

carefully. i think they will go through a disciplined process. the real focus they have coming out of the crisis is on money markets. the money market industry has been debating for almost five years. >> you are on the board of the chicago fed. i want to share with you something claimed by an economist out of harvard -- you are with the federal reserve of the bank of chicago. what is your take on it? >> i think some inflation expectations would be good. that would mean that the labor markets are improving and we are seeing that with the jobs numbers that are coming out.

i still worry about underemployment in the labor participation index. i think there's a lot more work to go. in my opinion it would not be a bad thing. comfort going into a trust company like the northern trust it is this a time -- like thetable northern trust. is it time to be comfortable? >> i think we can take more risks. it is not all that unique. it is the most difficult time to be willing to take that risk that we know that inflection points is when you get -- i think it is probably appropriate. just the sleep that night factor for a lot of investors. if they have that trusted through asset allocation and diversification, it probably prevents them from making the most egregious mistakes. >> thank you for stopping by.
