what is going on? the case is about market discipline and the other, just about countering week export numbers? which is it? nik: that is the question of the day. when you look at the pboc's statement shortly after the yuan fixing was announced, rhwy kraus should and language of market reform. and 2013 toreforms give the market a greater hand of what they are saying is the yuan has been guided for quite some time. was out of whack with expectations, that is all well and good. as at the same time, it has very clear benefits for china's areomy at a time when there lingering doubts or growing doubts about whether it was hit 7% growth target at the end of the year pretty it seems to be

something that will play to both constituencies. those who say it will boost growth. it is intentional. all the other hand, no, wait a minute, it gives chinese market a greater handprint was to see how it plays out. sidehan: about the traits and looking at exports, how much does a move the dial for exports in the month to come? nick wadhams: there would need to be some more devaluation for exports to get a really big pot. it is very interesting if you look at the export numbers announced of the weekend, about 8% decline. the declines you saw were the biggest in areas that will be most affected by this currency move. exports to the eu were down 2%. exports to japan down 10%. depreciationncy or will really strengthen china's

hand as it goes to the market. that gives added sort of evidence to the idea this was a very intentional move by the government to spur activity. and getting back to the 7% figure, china really tried to bolster the case to hit and that by the end of the year. just the bank nick wadhams, thank you for breaking -- jonathan: nick wadhams, thank you for breaking it down. we are joined by our next guest. nick attion i put for the you create wake up on tuesday, a couple of days after dreadful export numbers. is it about alleviating the pain for export numbers are market discipline? guest: the last couple of years, effectively china's currency extremely overvalued. of 1520% thee aces

highest in the world. the pressure of the monetary side is bearing down on the commodity growth rate. a time when the trains corporate side is extremely member. flows in to create order to service the debt. the only way is to export at the lower and lower prices. jonathan: if it is the trend to weakened currency and we have more to come, what does it mean for disinflation? another big problem for banks around the world? ashok shah: absolutely. still increasing if you look for example the mining sector. new capacity coming in. it means we could see another down in the commodity and energy and that goes back into the prices for manufactured goods. muche looking at a pretty

headlines this morning is google reorganizing the company under a new holding up he called alphabet. web operationsin for independence and gives investors more visibility into spending plans. let's bring in elliott gotkine. alphabet doesn't quite have the same ring as google. they wereder whether sitting around and having soup or watching sesame street or something to come up with that name but they seem to justify it in slightly more lofty terms. larry page in his missive on the blog post yesterday said we like the name alphabet because it means a collection of letters that represents language one of humanity esther most important innovations and is the core index of the google search and we like that alphabet being an investor return above benchmark and it seems to happen yesterday with shares rising some 6%. we go that google has

effectively become a conglomerate with all of these disparate businesses and tentacles extending into everything. along with google map -- google maps they have life-sciences send the group working with diabetes and calico trying to find ways to make you live longer and google x such as driverless cars. these businesses are already part of google and it will now be a part of alphabet and larry brady -- larry page and the other cofounder will now be the ceo and president of alphabet. jon: i'm looking at right now up 6%. over the earnings call, ruth looking at the idea that they may look at cost management. this is about visibility knowing what the company is actually up to. has been keen and she said to investors i want you to get a better handle on this business because they are not

giving away any trade secrets. this i think as part of getting a better visibility on how the businesses do. macnow that the web search in contributes the lions share of the $60 billion or so revenues but investors don't really know how much google is spending on things like driverless cars or how much revenue it is getting from things like the life sciences division or why fight balloons. we do not know how much detail we will get until january when alphabet will report its first set of results because these changes will happen incrementally to think it will give apple better currency with which to pursue acquisition and allow them to spin off more easily and given the cutthroat world of tell -- talent perhaps if you've got google x going to hire people they might get more options in a particular division of google x and that might make

them feel they're working for a young and thrusting startup that has better growth prospects than the overall alphabet soup of companies contained within alphabet. jon: i'm still digesting that. yesterday twitter stock rose after interim ceo jack dorsey tweeted about his purchase of 870 $5,000 of shares saying he is investing in twitter's future. caroline hyde joins us for more. dorsey has not made as much fuss over his past transactions so why now? caroline: because he is buying them. previously he was selling. yesterday he started tweeting that he had just bought some. a cool it hundred $75,000 worth. it's interesting not just his

purchases but other executives within twitter. peter fenton has been buying up stock, $200,000 worth in the director peter curry also purchased a cool million dollars of twitter. inause of investing twitter's future as jack dorsey put it, but also there was some other positive news. national football league. nfl as it is known in the u.s.. a multiyear agreement signed with twitter. you'll get new videos and highlights for year-round deals expanding on the existing relationship they already had but they said that brands cannot get enough of this. also viewers, people who use twitter love the highlights on twitter so this is a new deal. shares have jumped 9% and you can see them currently on my bigen but overall this is a

move for twitter stock and something investors are interested in. whati have to digest twitter is doing and google. and then alibaba, what is the story? caroline: new school goes old-school. this is an internet company buying up brick-and-mortar. it is all about logistics and delivery. alibaba is doing the same. they want to get brick-and-mortar on the ground to make delivery that much faster. spentave a record amount on alibaba, $4.6 billion on a company called suning. they have 1600 outlets. 290 cities. suddenly, we and online sales get that much easier. that is the target they're

announcing at the moment and it also helps them take on their competitor j.d..com. this is the online electronics seller that has been ramping up market share and doing well in terms of u.s. trading. yesterdaya beating when they saw the ramifications of this tie up. competitorly another has actually leapt on the tie up speculation that might be seeing internet companies wanting to get in on brick-and-mortar retailers. wanting to snap them up and make ownership. so far this is alibaba's biggest deal. jon: thank you for the tech crap. let's get some final thoughts on tech. tech, the media is guilty of this. they seem to focus on the fanatic plays, the blue sky thinking.

i want management that manages money properly and that is what we have seen over the last couple of months. jeff bezos delivering a profit to show that he can do just that. are you looking at the fanatic plays are just management? >> i think it is both but principally you need proper management. as you said so much is happening that without good management you won't be able to take it vantage of that. do ise have seen google not clear up the management structure and make it much more flexible so it allows each of the units to exploit the opportunities. as the organization becomes complex the management needs to change to take account of the opportunities in front of it but it will always remain very important because ultimately it

is the ability to generate cash flow down the line. it doesn't matter how it effectively got hauled off. i think they are seeing both sides of the equation work extremely well right now. jon: the big question is if you were not invested have you missed the trade? is therele is up 25% more juice to squeeze on google specifically? >> i think we need to wait for google to come down. it is been a very good year for them have all done extremely well. however, with the economy doing very well where covering more and in sumer spending is increasing and the wages are rising. think it's better to have significant exposure to the tech sector but in the short-term

perhaps they can let things calm down a little bit. jon: thank you very much for joining us this morning. we spent a program lot of the morning talking about commodities we have not talked about russia yet. sees its steepest gdp decline since 2009. is this the bottom?

and welcome back to bloomberg tv. by 0.6%.s down the ftse up by 0.6% and there is a china story running right to this equity market and mark barton has that story for you. currency falling by the most in 20 years. the world's biggest mining company but with the weaker yuan, stronger currency installers makes the dollar denominated commodities more expensive. bht down by 1.3%. as a group the bloomberg commodity index rising by the most since february but the rest bite did not last. the world's biggest provider of temporary work is posting a 22%

rise in second quarter profit. that is a slight miss. they are a bellwether for the economy. gamma holdings down by 4%. one of the biggest decliners across europe. it is the swiss asset manager that says it will cost 165 jobs after reporting a drop in first-quarter profit. we know the chief executive of this company and we have spoken to him many times. alexander friedman. took over last year as serving as the global chief investment officer at ubs. he is trying to seek ways to shore up earnings which have been hurt. he has been reducing the value of assets and other currencies.

cap is trying to strengthen its markets in the united states. a three-day decline but that is the big story. jon: let's set up into russia economicse russia's slide picks up pace. the gdp contracted 4.6% from one year earlier. ryan chilcote has been covering this story for us from moscow. where is the russian economy headed and is this is bad as it can get? it may not be as bad as it can get. these the risk him in worse than expected on top of a contraction of over 2% in the first quarter. the thing here is the underlying reasons. it is that investment is down and industrial production is down and specifically consumer demand is down by much more than people thought it might be. part of the reason for that is the ruble's devaluation.

basically the importers of this country have been passing on the rising costs to consumers. going forward, the economy russiay has been telling that the worst is behind them that the second quarter would be the lowest point but capital economics said that may not be the case. they expect a contraction of more than 6% and they say the local point may not come until the third quarter and part of that is the oil price that continues to decline but that might be short-lived. then of course the ruble has been declining as well and that could push inflation up again which would further hurt consumer demand. jon: at ryan chilcote over in moscow. for now -- for more we are joined by the vice president of -- >> the first question in my mind

is how do we break this down? is this just begin to russia's inability to diversify away from oil? >> the general estimate would be that one third is caused by sanctions and two thirds by the drop in oil prices. it really depends what the oil prices are at the moment but that is what sounds like. but russia clearly missed an opportunity to reconstruct and restructure. reliant on remains the export of oil and gas to the markets. the model industrial towns inside of russia itself so the structural problems in the russian economy are really just being exposed by the drop in oil prices. jon: in the immediate terms i in an990 night -- 1998 echo chamber with the volume turned up.

i say dollar-ruble surging and oil getting hit they do not to the crisis in the way many might have expected. when do we start to see that really bite? russian economy is that more than 50% is owned by the state. they've been really busy trying to support the large enterprises. this is actually mitigating effect. there have been some issues for certain companies but there wasn't a real pickup. the general expectation was to see it at the end of this year. jon: on the military side to cannot get away from it. dying down or -- is that? hovering above the whole situation. where are we? >> there has been considerable escalation of military activity in recent weeks.

the violence in eastern ukraine has been rising for quite some time. worstjust seen the shelling since a february cease-fire yesterday and there is a huge question. they are now being approached by the separatist from the north and the east. jon: final question. last spring i would sit here and it was very much a headline driven equity market. and the new normal and the status quote is just how things are. my question would be how far away are we from getting to a solution? >> there are still sanctions. they would only be triggered by an outright russian invasion of the ukrainian territory and that is unlikely to happen. in between we are in the regime that we have now which we call level three light sanctions.

unlikelyme is highly to change in the next six months. because of the highlight and continuing violence in eastern ukraine. .he situation where having now jon: another six months with the status quote. thank you for joining us this morning. on bloomberg tv, everything in a to watch for the rest of the trading day. inflation data from italy and germany. we will wrap up the last 24 hours of the big china news and what is coming up after the break.
