being stable or maybe a little up with the first quarter of the year. but people keep a lot of money at home. they are taking their money out of the banks and keeping money home for safety reasons. ryan: we listen to this tit-for-tat in brussels and wonder if we will have a deal on tuesday that keeps rates in the eurozone and keeps the money flowing from the imf and the eurozone. what is the mood like amongst business leaders? >> we're all counting that the prime minister will go through. we expect and hope we have a deal. ryan: do you want a deal at any cost or the deal on the table now? that deal would mean more taxes for greek businesses. >> actually, there are taxes for

businesses and it is not good for business. however it is an absolute necessity to go through with the deal. it is difficult for me to say any deal, but in reality, we need any deal rather than no deal. i think the only way right now is to go through with a deal. ryan: measure what no deal means for business versus a deal. >> no deal, actually, we do not have any liquidity in the country. we will not have any assistance from abroad, from imf or the eurozone. ryan: that is an apocalyptic scenario. >> [indiscernible] manufacturing depends a lot on imported material. we need some kind of competitiveness. no deal means this is the end. couple weeks ago someone sick

shipping industry would only mean that shipping services would move outside of greece. shipping is about 7% of our gdp. ryan: we have to leave it there. obviously, a heavy price to pay. the message is -- any deal the deal on the table right now, even with all that pain, is preferable for business in this country over no deal. back to you. i love you: ryan chilcote, thank you for olivia: ryan chilcote, thank you. history may be in the making this morning with more supreme court rulings due at 10:00 a.m. eastern time. when will the justices say about same-sex marriage and a string of other issues? we heading straight to capitol hill to find out. ♪

pimm: hank greenberg cannot be stopped. the former aig chief executive won the his abuse use government for taking control of the entrance giant during the financial crisis, but he still pursuing damages on behalf of himself and thousands of aig shareholders. yesterday, he spoke out for the first time in an exclusive interview with our own betty liu . hank greenberg: it was not just for me keep saying for me -- there are 275,000 shareholders that are involved in that. it is an obligation, not just for me, but for all of them.

betty: 275,000 shareholders -- did you hear from them after the decision? hank: some here at betty: what did they say? hank: they were happy about the verdict, disappointed in the fact that the government did something improper, overstepped its authority and they benefited to the extent of $23 billion or more. the one who overstepped their bounds got rewarded and the shareholders who are the victim of that, they are not. that eco--- betty: i understand you are representing a class-action lawsuit review are representing 275,000 other shareholders. let's focus on that. how much of the percentage would you get of any settlement if you did get one? hank: i think it would be 10% to

12%. betty: what would you do with that money? hank: it is not me. betty: but your portion? hank: very small part. betty: but the funds that you got if you were to win, what would you do with it? hank: some would begin to charity and some would be invested. what do you normally do? that eco-i don't know. i have never been in this situation. during the trial, who bothers you the most? you know, among the witness testimony that you heard, what bothered you the most? hank: i think what bothered me the most was the way the fed acted and went beyond the authority that they had. there is a section called 13.3 the federal reserve act. congress decides how much authority the executive branch of government has, ok?

the fed had authority to lend money, and they did. they lent money to many institutions. they were not authorized to take equity. ok? the fed got 80% of aig. that was one of the major issues in the case. and who was in charge of that area? the three key people was paulson, bernanke, and geithner. pimm: betty liu is here now with more. interesting conversation with hank greenberg. betty: i was surprised by how forthcoming he was in giving details about this. 10% to 12%. how he got to that number. apparently, about how much he owed when aig would under back in 2008. also, he finally confirmed who

was on team hank. ken lengonne is helping hank greenberg fund this lawsuit on behalf of 275,000 shareholders. he did not say how much. but greenberg said they are funding most of this lawsuit. olivia: also on team hank is david boyd. betty: bloomberg cannot say enough about david boyise. people thought hank was going to lose the case. everyone thought he was crazy to go fight the government on this. pimm: there are other people involved in this. of course, when hank greenberg says the fed in the people at the fed, he means i'm a what maybe three specific people? betty: he mention them. bernanke, geithner, and paulson.

i think geithner gets no love at all from hank greenberg. he mentioned that he thought his testimony was "puzzling." paulson, he disagreed with what paulson did. he led this whole bailout. but i suspect he has a little bit of a soft spot -- i would not say soft spot he agrees with paulson on some things regarding china appeared that both have a huge interest in furthering relations with china. they both have that in common. one of the things i thought was quite interesting was how hank greenberg discussed what he would have done during the critical 3-4 days for aig. he says he believed aig should not have granted any of those collateral calls. if the counterparties one of the collateral maybe the leadership should have just simply said no and let the courtrooms find out.

it's easy to armchair quarterback what happened during that time. it gives a glimpse into how would -- how he would have handled that situation during the crisis. pimm: a very interesting interview appea. you can watch the full interview on bloomberg.com. olivia: time for some more top headlines. creditors have moved to end the standoff over greece. the so-called -- they proposed extending the current bailout. they will add $17 million in funding. no word whether one from the greeks in return. the creditors had been demanding more budget cuts from greece before they would release anymore bailout funds. a terror attack at a gas plant owned by an american company in france. authorities say attackers

money chases more money and you end up chasing the money rather than the investment itself. >> exactly. by monitoring the trends in pairwise correlations, we are able to identify potentially crowded traits. valuation is the final measure and perhaps the most important measure. a measure that puts it all together into the valuations -- we are looking at the valuations and spread or the valuation of the securities in the strategy. we are focused on leverage here. highly leveraged firms versus low leverage firms. the financial crisis -- olivia: this one makes the most sense to me. give us an example of a trade out that is overcrowded. >> if you look at this chart, after the big spike, you find

recession. pimm: you mentioned technology. these valuations of privately held companies like uber still good? jack: the valuations are very high. not valuations you can actually realize in the public markets. that's what's going on here. pimm: that fitbit ipo that came out? do you have one? jack: i would not buy the stock. valuations in the public market a very high. private market are high. we are extending the period. the average time is 11 years. it used to be seven. we are at a different era. olivia: what does that tell you? jack: there is a lot of money available in the private market.

there is no need to have to deal with the public. olivia: certainly. pimm: thank you very much. jack rivkin. dueling press conferences this hour. we have to ryan chilcote in athens before an update. ryan: we have just heard from the greek prime investor he is still in brussels. he says greece will not given to ultimatums blackmail. greece will fight for european values as this bailout program continues to be discussed. that is just rhetoric. what's important at this point is who he is directing the message to. he was talking to the greek people. increasingly, this debate going on in brussels this spat

between greece's and greece itself is going to boost here -- whether there is a deal or no deal, the greek prime minister will have to come back here and sell his message to the greek people. pimm: i wonder if you could give us a little more detail. it's a lot of political rhetoric. the negotiators in brussels here ar this. ryan: i think they think it is just talking. the eurogroup meeting is tomorrow. the greek prime minister met with the french president and german chancellor. they probably place a lot more value in what he says behind closed doors and are trying to find a deal that he can accept. that is the real big issue here. he has to come back and sell the deal to his party. if he doesn't have a deal, he

has to come back here and prepared this country for what ensues. that might involve closing the banks as early as monday. thank you. pimm: we have more coming up on "market makers." ♪

pimm: of the biggest providers of mortgages in the united states is bringing back a type of home loan that has nearly disappeared since the financial crisis. interest only loans. united wholesale mortgage cheap executive matt joins us now from detroit. thank you for being with us. can you explain this idea of an interest only loan? how did this reassert itself gekko? matt: before the crisis these

loans were being done but not as they are being done today. we are excited about bringing the program back because it gives homeowners a choice. people that are savvy borrowers that want to look at the best payment for them and their house, it makes sense for them. when they were doing them with 100% financing lower scores that doesn't make sense. these borrowers are buying at higher rates and can afford the payments. when they decide to choose to have a lower payment and can do things at their house, it's a great program. it's a great thing to bring back. we think this program is a conservative program and a great program for a lot of borrowers that really need it. olivia: a lot of people would say the rise and return of interest rate -- interest only mortgages is a sign that consumers are getting in over their heads again.

americans are levering up and this is destabilizing the housing recovery. how do you respond to that? matt: that would be without understanding the market. that is true if people are not putting 20 or 30% down. people are putting significant equities on houses. this is not back to 2006 or 2007. we never did those loans. these programs are strong and are good for borrowers. a lot of loans are being done -- this is a loan that can help our worst. -- help borrowers. they had equity already built in. they don't have to pay down the mortgage to have equity. those borrowers should have the choice and that's all we want to offer. you have this choice and that choice. take whichever one is best for you and your family. that is a safe thing to do. pimm: what are the terms of the

loan? matt: there's different options. it's a five-year adjustable-rate mortgage. five-year arms that go up after five years by 2%. it's not a risky loan. we are qualifying and making sure the buyer can afford the worst-case scenario. wouldn't you rather pay $1100 a month? we are excited to give those right now. pimm: thank you very much. the president and chief executive of united wholesale mortgage. olivia: the one thing that could derail the bull market, coming up. ♪

olivia: it is a muggy friday morning in new york city. the market is opening in just a few minutes. we are speaking with t joe

weisenthal. let's start with you. joe: i want to start off by talking about eurozone credit. here's some good news, has nothing to do with greece. credit is starting to flow. if the lifeblood of the economy starting to accelerate. olivia: omg qe is working. pimm: the yellow line shows credit growth from banks to nonfinancial corporations. that went positive on a year-over-year basis. it's more subtle with the blue line, the households. but that is also up. poor credit, more spending, more growth, more investment. olivia: can we think mario draghi? -- thank mario draghi? >> you have these targeted ltr o's. olivia: i've lived in new york

five years -- how are we going to get money to the real economy? that chart shows it might be happening. >> if it's a demand issue where there is more interest in the capital, that is much more positive. joe: it's a mix. if there is no demand, it becomes like pushing that she had to give the pipes -- you have to credit the ecb for clearing up the pipes. the second story of the day investors are pulling their money out of turkey at the fastest pace in 10 years. there was the recent election coming stability related to that. it created uncertainty. they still have not formed a

government. it's possible they could have another election. the possibility of a fed rate hike that would pull money back to u.s. dollars has an effect. pimm: number three? joe: i want to talk about a commodity we don't talk about very often. a new u.n. report came out today on the state of the global drug market. cocaine is in a serious bear market. demand is down. olivia: why is that? joe: there has been a lot of eradication efforts. what is booming is marijuana. if you had the long marijuana, short cocaine trade on you are doing well. i don't think there is an etf.

supply and demand and everything else. pimm: supply and demand is beginning today. the opening bell on the new york stock exchange. olivia: we want to ask you a question about greece. we go back-and-forth about whether or not we think markets are overreacting or perhaps under reacting to a greek deal what is your take? joe: the markets are right, greece won't be a lehman style moment. there could be political ramifications and long-term slow-moving impact on the eurozone. the probably isn't this interconnectedness on the financial system that would cause a crash. pimm: let's go to julie hyman

who is looking at stocks as the markets opening -- markets open. julie: it looks like it is the biggest one-day drop in december since 2008. this after micron came out with sales that fell by 3.2%. that is the first decline in revenue in two years time. the company's forecast for sales also alling short of that. there is a secular issue for micron. the majority of chips it makes is for personal computers. we have seen personal computer demand compliant -- demand decline. it also makes chips for things like server. that has been strong, but not strong enough to make up for the shortfall on the pc side. if it decline in those shares. in addition we are seeing it spread among other semi conductors. jeffries saying intel will perhaps suffer from the same trends, and as a result is cutting its price target.

sandisk and amd are also falling along with micron. a broad pullback in the chips today. take a look at nike, people may not be buying personal computers but they are still buying shoes. the finish line benefiting from that. with these companies coming out with earnings that beat estimates. nike's futures orders orders that have not yet been delivered, that company is seeing a worldwide futures orders of 13%, excluding the effect of currencies. analysts were estimating on average a gain of 10.4%. that 13% is better than estimated. geographically it's what it looks like around the globe. sales were strong in china and japan. olivia: that is also leggings. julie: also the shoes. it is leisure as a whole that

has been doing fantastically. olivia: thank you so much. pimm: still with us, capital markets strategist jonathan you have been watching the bull market closely. anything going to deal rail this? -- to derail this? jonathan: i think the only thing is if you see a meaningful pickup in inflation. it is not that wage inflation rises, it has to really accelerate. what is not on this chart is recession lines. whenever you have these massive moves from low inflation too high you tend to get recessions. right now we're smack in the middle of the chart. olivia: it shows we are nowhere near a sharp acceleration. jonathan: i think we are not going to see a seven-year cycle

but a 12 year plus cycle. it is simple, if you look normally act at the last six years gdp has run about 3.5% per year. less than 2% for the last 10 which means it will be a more extended cycle. pimm: why extended because it is lower? jonathan: we have a spare amount of capacity coming out of recession. if you are growing at half the speed takes twice as long to burn through that spare capacity. olivia: are you in the camp that the bull market dozen and because valuations run up to high, only because of the recession? jonathan: partially that is the case. one was the crash of 87. look at those recessionary indicators, they are the only thing that matters.

pimm: the depression indicator scorecard. expansionary territory -- what does this mean? jonathan: the number one thing i was looking at was the pickup in inflation. the second thing was the shape of the yield court -- you curve. as long as it is steep, which means the 10 yield -- the 10 year yield bond is beyond the one year yield bond, you are in great territory. right now it is quite steep. expectations are still having a positive yield curve. olivia: if the yield curve inverts it is like mercury -- like mercury in retrograde. earnings going into this year, everybody was so concerned about earnings, they said there is going to be zero growth in corporate profits. what is your take on earnings halfway into 2015? jonathan: there are headline earnings and core earnings.

earnings got absolutely killed by lower energy prices because the energy sector is down 65% from last year. if you take out energy and financials, you are looking at a trend of 7.5 percent earnings growth. that is why the market is not freaking out about what appears to be a low single-digit kind of trend. pimm: doesn't it strike you as bizarre? let's find the things that make this analysis not right and get rid of them so the analysis comes up right. every company in the world uses energy. jonathan: we are talking about energy is a drag force in the sector. why throw it out? pimm: it's like saying i didn't like the way it works out. jonathan: an average number where one single data point can skew it -- it's earnings aren't a reflection of the fact that

oil prices fell apart. to be fair -- >> if you sold things to the oil industry. jonathan: in the consumer sector it would be an incremental positive. the banks have a get out of jail free card because a year ago they had huge legal expenses at places like city and bank of america. therefore they have earnings numbers that are high. i am throwing that out as well. pimm: you are like that olympic judge. we have a gymnast winner. olivia: thank you so much. still to come, it has been a very good week for president obama and the white house. we will find out what these major wins for president obama means for the 2016 race. ♪

olivia: it has been a very good week for the white house. you are looking at a live shot of capitol hill. president obama racking up several victories, including passage of the transpacific partnership. a huge win at the supreme court appeal -- the supreme court which upheld a key division of the affordable care act. with this now is bloomberg politics managing editor john heilemann. this has been an incredible week for the guy. frame it for us if you will. what does this mean for president obama's legacy yet: -- legacy? john: not only is south carolina a tragedy but a big reminder of something the president wanted to get done. after sandy hook, people put a

lot of effort into that. that was a legacy that didn't work out. he is reminded every day that human tragedy of south carolina. these two other things were legacy things that happened this week. there was a time not that long ago when people were saying the court was going to rule against obamacare and the trade with debt. people were confidently predicting those two things would go down. having the supreme court decision is more important than did trade deal, because in the end the affordable care act will be the centerpiece of his legacy. the trade deal is a big deal. it is a big deal in the sense he has not got much done in his second term, and this is one thing we can point to that is of real big significance. pimm: in washington people like to go with a winner, i'm thinking. it depends.

john: there is a counter thing there. pimm: what happens now? able to turn this into something more? john: this is a very unusual thing, the trade vote. the supreme court decision not relevant in this context. the trade bill doesn't provide much of a model going forward, because you have this unusual left right coalition. you have to cobble together that centrist coalition. that doesn't exist in a lot of places. they haven't decided if they like him now. they haven't decided if they want to be partners with him. what they have decided to stay care about free trade and their constituents care about free trade. the business community in particular. i'm not sure this is going to open the door to a lot of other big things. i think this is probably the last substantial, big thing he's going to get done. olivia: how does the president when this week -- how does the president's win this week

changed the 2016 elections? john: there are two things winning drives the president's approval ratings up. the president's approval ratings matter to secretary clinton. as a historical matter if you are incumbent president, it is hard to earn a third convention term for the party, you're probably a -- you are probability of success rise and falls with the president's approval rating. the supreme court thing doesn't help her at all area -- at all. you can play that either way. there is a chance there will be a lot of enthusiasm on the republican side. that is a mixed blessing in terms of the political implications. olivia: she wouldn't be railing against free trade. i'm saying when she goes out there speaking to unions and labor groups the conversation

will be different. john: it is a little bit more grubby than that. she doesn't want to rail against pretrade. her and her husband have been free traders for the -- for their entire life. she has tried to fuzz up there it's shoes -- fuzz up their issues. she cannot wait and see what the deal looks like pre-the longer she gets delaying talking about free trade, the more it impacts the democratic primary. she likes the idea of putting this discussion office long as possible. olivia: thank you so much bloomberg's politics managing editor, john heilemann. pimm: you guys are so awesome. let me tell you about some of the top stories of the morning.

was not renewed in 2008. within the inquiry there are other elements that will allow us to have a better idea of this. pimm: in somalia and islamic group says it attacked a peacekeeper base and killed more than 30 troops. the group is trying to overthrow the western backed government in somalia. and in kuwait, a bomb exploded at a shiite mosque during friday prayers. at least 16 people were killed. this is the muslim holy month of ramadan. officials say there is no evidence these attacks were linked or coordinated. olivia: chinese equities tumbling today, increasing fears the bull market there has peaked. the benchmark shanghai composite lost its biggest in five months. morgan stanley urging its clients not to buy shares in mainland companies. the country's second largest

health insurer is close to acquiring humana. bloomberg is lou -- limit is learning a deal could be reached as early as this weekend. humana also has an offer from sigma area -- from sigma. pimm: those are your top headlines at the moment. we want to bring in julie hyman with a look at how stocks are on the move. julie: this deal that may or may not be happening, there was a report they had made some overtures. a lot of analysts throwing cold water on this, saying the math doesn't work. they don't see these teed making sense getting together. now shares are pulling back at 9% while valiant falls at 2%. wedbush remains an underperform on these shares. analysts saying the new offering by amazon will be more

attractive to resellers who will migrate over. watching target, it announced the departure of its chief merchant. analysts at bmi were saying that creates some uncertainty because of its large brand image. off by just one third of 1%. olivia: a lot of stuff going on. these terrible headlines of attacks around the world. the situation in greece still very much fluid into the weekend. finance ministers once again meeting in brussels. that does it for "market makers." we will be back at our new time, 8 a.m.. we will be told why it is not just investors who are scared about the bond market. have a great weekend, everybody.

>> coming up on the top of the hour and the end of the week. it is etf friday. more and more etf's are being used by investors for tactical news around events. to give you an example is etf analyst for bloomberg. as olivia was just pointing out as their show -- as their show was rolling up. there is a lot to choose from. let's start with greece. that is the big event that won't go away. eric: it isn't going away, and the etf that is perfectly positioned is the global x greece etf. it is global x as a company. greece is the focus of the etf.

it is a bit concentrated. greece is just a miniscule waiting in here etf's. single country etf's are the way to go if you are playing a political crisis. the options activities are increasing. with options and the ability to shorten etf you can go bearish or bullish. we have seen assets go from 100 million to 360 million in this etf. i remember when this came of it operated at 30 million for a while. when these single country etf's become in the middle of the eye of a hurricane, you see assets go up, you see volume go up. >> people betting on a positive outcome with those inflows. the next one has to do with china. it is an inverse etf which is interesting. morgan stanley saying now is not the time to enter the chinese

market. eric: there has been this china bubble headline. this is the direction, inverse bearish china. this is a new, it is a week old. already up 7%. this basically gives you the opposite. what it does is it shorts the etf. the borrowing costs on this are pretty high. there is a 10% that it cost per year. you are now short. this has seen assets flow and has 64 million only after a week. that is a lot for inverse or leverage products. usually you don't see assets off the bat. >> the fed is already -- the fed is another big looming event. eric: this is the best performer

in june right now. if the fed is going to raise rates for september -- we see flows into bank etf's. this particular one is regional. they are going to see a benefit more from rising rates. this etf is about 6.5% this month, and all four bank etf's have seen inflows. you are taking money out of real estate and putting it in financials. >> thank you, have a great weekend. bloomberg market day days starts right after this. ♪
