in the new home sales, the highest levels since february 2008. indeed a milestone similar to what we saw for existing home sales yesterday, the highest level in seven years. to 2.2%, 546,000 eat all of the forecast in our survey of economists spirit i it is thephasize biggest advance as well since february of 2008. februaryaw a reading through april higher. all of these point to good science for housing. also, the fact that mortgage rates have been picking up. on a 30ee them reach year mortgage rate, we saw them reach 4% over the past several weeks, the first time we have seen that in about eight months. we have been seeing that and you tend to see an increase in home

sales as well as people try to increase inan rates. it could potentially be a factor here. you know all the other factors we have seen, an increase in wages, all of that in theory would be supportive of these stronger home sales. betty: thank you so much, julie. stocks rightook at now. big gains in china overnight. slightly smaller gains in europe and they worked their way down to no games in the nasdaq here in the u.s. the s&p is up and the dow jones industrial average is up 48 points, averages to 18,168. betty: on mark's are watching what is going on in greece and also what the fed will do. you are seeing yields, just a bit.

yield 2.1% right now. matt: let's look at what is making news on a bloomberg terminal this morning. a demand for american-made manufactured goods stabilizing. in may for just the second time this year, booking for nonmilitary capital goods other than air rates. we're up .4%. if you throw airplanes back in, durable goods orders fell because the aircraft orders are such a volatile category that we usually leave them out. betty: greece is finally getting serious about trading economic reforms for more bailout money but there is still a lot of work to do and not much time to do it all. hans nichols is in brussels with the latest. the clock is ticking. will they pull it off? hans: everyone here in brussels

seems pretty positive that the deal they are working on have a chance to get a rough . i stress a chance because there are still several hurdles. perhaps more importantly, what would happen in the greek armament. we have seen a variety of comments from greek politicians talking about potentially posing the bailout package is people currently understand it. an extension of the current package still needs to go through a couple of steps. that the to make sure mass actually works, that it will allow greece to hit the target in terms of a primary budget surplus. it is not just about the end of the program. it is about the means. how will greece actually get there. will they increase 13 to 20% on food items #what will they do with pension reforms. it is these specifics making sure the numbers are getting there. later on wednesday night, we will have financing gathered

here in brussels again. it is likely on thursday to be agreed to by the entire in union. this is where they would agree with it. and they have to go to aslan and berlin. a potential liquidity crisis. bloomberg news reported 7 billion euros have flown out of greece since the beginning of june parity you look at those emergency liquidity increases of a deep on increasing them. they did the fourth one this morning, the fourth in six days. the iraq -- irish finance ministers says you can expect the ecb will turn off the emergency liquidity system. matt: there are obviously one million hoops to still jump through. assuming that all goes perfectly, they still will not have enough time to unlock funds to greece by the end of the

month to pay the imf. christine lagarde said there would be no grace this time. what does that mean? imaginationure of to find some way. if they have an agreement to pass the parliament in athens and berlin by the 30th, i expect they will figure out a way or another to get the 1.5 billion to the imf. one option, the ecb could lift the limit the greek central-bank can offer. you can do it by shifting over some short-term funds like that. there are a variety of ways to do it. if there is a political agreement in athens in berlin, and some of the other national parliaments, i would not get hung up on how they will actually physically transfer the matt: they will probably take anything from greece.

betty: at this point, they are looking for every option. thank you so much, hans nichols, our international correspondent. a deal, $2.5 billion. severalr has moved hundred million dollars in debt. expected to close in the first quarter. capital safety, it was acquired for $1.1 billion in 2012. matt: blackberry and smartphone sales fell last quarter. john is betting the company passes future will no longer be the smartphones that they once were. and customers are helping them make that decision. blackberry council and selling oftware, as well as a ton software for the auto industry. almost every major manufacturer, uses this software. we will speak live with john in the noon hour of the bloomberg

market day in an interview you do not want to miss it also, the owner of the olive garden will split off more than 430 authorities. it will then be publicly traded. selling about 75 restaurants on separate deals here more than 30 have are even sold or are under contract. proceeds from the real estate retireould help him about $1 million in debt. chances are about 50-50 the u.s. economy will improve enough for the federal reserve to raise rates in september tear the forecast assumes stronger roof that in the first half of the year. a greater basis in confidence inflation. returning to 2%. those are your top stories this morning. matt: coming up in the next hour, there has not been a lot of frantic deals on wall street this year. the s&p 500 has not posted a gain or a lost of 2% since

september. we look at why volatility has been so low. abidjan's joins the list of food companies trying to limit a artificial ingredients. it will cost a piece of chain hundreds of millions of dollars but they're are willing to do it to get a better product to you. those stories and more are coming up on bloomberg market day. back to greece. creditors say the country is finally getting serious about reform. the two sides need to reach a deal by tomorrow. you and primates or agrees to his creditor terms, he will still have to sell it to lawmakers, some of whom are willing to risk to fall to avoid austerity. betty: headaches are not over for greece by any means in the eurozone. in london, the chief european economist, as we were listening to the international correspondent hans nichols, he knows this has to pass muster for two sets of lawmakers. the german parliament but more important the greek parliament.

how do you think both will react to a deal? >> not very well. but i think in the greek bond limit, there is probably a majority agreement. we know about the specifics of the agreement. cities will not support the package. however, two opposition packages, he might be willing to support. in terms of the german parliament, i think if the in broad is credible outlines, angela merkel will probably he able to get the german parliament to spot it. i am more worried about what comes after this one if things work out. greece will need additional funding. at that point, i think the cost

to european countries will be higher and the german parliament may have problems with that. matt: surely they know this already. if they have right here research reports, they have seen others and they realize they are setting greece up for another fall. will there be some kind of provision for that? is it all part of the plan, or do they not look far out or care to? thinky probably do, but i we are in the realm of hypothesis in terms of how much will be needed and for how long. i think for politicians, the key thing is to preserve the unity of the union. they are very concerned about greece falling into a political situation, perhaps been folding under the influence of russia. explains why they are willing to continue these negotiations for months. eddie: you raise a good point.

it raises the question that if citrus has trouble getting this through parliament, or if there is a lot of opposition to it, how much longer does he last? >> i think there are two possible scenarios. group,a parliamentary ultimately abstaining or supporting measures. leave thesome people party. at that point, it would be a question of whether it is a majority, whether he has a legitimate coalition at some stage. i think his goal would be to try to push this into the final months of the year to get a pause for the economy for public opinion. hopefully the economy will do a bit better in the coming months and then he will have to see if

it is possible to continue. perhaps he calls an election and asks greek people for a deal. unless he is willing to take greece out of europe. matt: do you think greece does it is out? even if citrus is involved, some other coalition running the country? morest would probably be amfortable, including reformist movement that has more moderate views about the bailout it shrank a also -- lot in terms of its support base . i think for investors probably, that would be a good outcome. i personally do not want to make a political statement here. it is the greek people who

decide on that. what we can say is if the agreement is what we're being it has takenress, five months and i think it has damaged the economy. this is more about politics than the economy. betty: thank you so much, ricardo in london. we will have much more on greece including anown, exclusive interview with the former greek prime minister coming up in the next hour of the bloomberg market day. matt: the bond market may be as volatile as ever but not so much inequities and we will look at why we have not in many big market moves this year. stay with us. ♪

the market losing steam? news up.we saw big in december, we saw two consecutive days. we have not seen any of that this year. of this signal something? is there a downturn on the corner? getting to these levels -- >> or is this a safer, less volatile moke -- market? i said it almost sarcastically. callie: a lot of people have noticed how the markets are turning lately. there is something to be set for the market losing momentum. we are coming into the summer months where there is low volume and a chance for greater or less volatility. if the greece situation goes and does not cause a lot of volatility, what else is out there?

numbers, and there are significant restraints in the housing are, especially for newly built homes. if we look at the homes for sale, aside from the housing bust hangover, they're at the lowest level since 1968. very low inventory numbers. it is a good time to be a homebuilder. iron is a re-market, rents are rising, -- betty: it sounds like a goldilocks scenario. professor, giving what he just outlined, might that offset any kind of effect that you might see from the fed raising interest rates impacting mortgage rates? it is positive. the growth is coming from higher incomes, better jobs numbers. this housingthat market makes housing a

contributor to the economy for the first time in -- in many years. this will extend the recovery. the fed is likely to get back to a more normal mortgage rate when , not immediately, but at some point there will be an affordability crunch adding to the inventory problems and terms of slowing down the market. for now, construction will be positive. this is a good time to be a homebuilder. betty: as the professor is saying, where among the housing tears will you see this inventory shortage having the biggest impact? carl: across the board for newly built homes. we had the situation with the feds raising the rates this year, but that does not mean it will be a sharp backup in

mortgage rates. it will depend on the reinvestment policy. what they do with the mortgage rates they bought through quantitative easing. will they let it unwind? that the fed will try to shelter the housing sector. there will be several rate increasing's before they unwind .he balance sheets they will protect mortgage rates, meaning this housing for abution can go on while. housing is a relatively small share of the economy. to 4%.bout 3% if we add in housing related expenditures it is larger. people buy new homes, washing machines, and coffee tables. is a: separately, there job coming out of the construction sector. we're not yet your normal

there has to be consensus going forward or we will have a long term problem. betty: the governor said there was a 50-50 chance that we would go in september. what do you make of that? carl: not surprising. we will see increasing reparation language from the fed to prep the market. there is a watershed event of the fed raising interest rates after being on hold, but that's the september meeting will come and go with the least amount of disruption as possible. he said that there's a higher chance of moving in in september than in december. you will see the odds being higher for september versus december. that shows that the feds want to get off of the zero balance. they will see what the reaction is and gauge the pace. data, we areat the
