6:00 am
of the american labor economy. we are creating jobs for it and i trot out my single best chart for 2015. good morning, everyone. this is "bloomberg surveillance ," live from our world headquarters in new york. it is wednesday, september 30. joining me, vonnie quinn. .n london, francine lacqua we see more disinflation and deflation today with the european e.u. inflation numbers. francine: we do, and that brings up questions about how much power central banks really have to fight this. also, it is the end of the quarter. that means $11 trillion were wiped off global equity markets. what that brought home is how big the markets are, and that is possibly why janet yellen had to pause from hiking rates with deflation. tom: right now let's get the top
6:01 am
headlines. here is vonnie quinn. vonnie: as francine was mentioning, it is the last day of the quarter and stocks are on an $11 trillion loss for the quarter. stocks are rebounding around the world. finished with their fifth straight monthly decline. 2008is a streak since the financial crisis. there is concern that japan may be falling into another recession. retail sales showed no improvement. that is likely to intensify the debate on whether prime minister government should increase spending. in afghanistan, government forces have been unable to retake a city captured by the taliban. the pentagon has called the capture of kunduz a setback. the senate plans to pass a spending bill this morning that
6:02 am
would avert a government shutdown. mitch mcconnell says he is confident the measure will pass in the house. mcconnell, john boehner, and president obama will meet soon to discuss spending limits for the next two years. john boehner is stepping down a month from now. there are number of things he wants to a college before leaving. john boehner: if there are ways to get things done so i do not burden my successor, i want to get it finished. and google has come out with a high-end tablet aimed at competing with apple and microsoft are it -- with apple and microsoft. it is also updating a set that -- a set-top tv device. tom: the only one who does the
6:03 am
event thing with people on stage is apple. i went to the samsung one at radio city is a call and it was like pretend. and warren buffett with berkshire hathaway, all that. let's do a data check. as we go through this through three days of labor market coverage. futures are up, down. yield, 2.09. the second screen -- i had to make this up. i had to struggle with it. at 26.83. the brazilian real, a little bit of strength. brent crude somewhat in the acidity of 50. you will see a lot of this chart in the next -- somewhere in the vicinity of 50. you will see a lot of this chart. what i did here was inflation adjust commodities back to 1956.
6:04 am
this is a long-term commodity deflation. here is that china uproar that we had, the lehman low, then we are back down here. you wonder if this is a trend we have seen over a gazillion years because of technology improvement. vonnie: exactly. becomespersistent it with the inflation figures. tom: and it falls into disinflation and deflation at lower price changes. we took three days of jobs coverage. we consider a lowered rate regime worldwide and we saw it reinforced this morning. francine lacqua is in london. i look at substantial negative yields in germany and switzerland. francine: and when you look at what mario draghi is facing, you are mentioning that inflation. for the first time in six months, the euro area inflation rate unexpectedly turning negative.
6:05 am
if you are saying inflation being imported by commodity prices, this is oil. i do not have much of a fact, but i can do something to try to spur this. if you look at our bloomberg survey, about two thirds of economists we spoke to expect the ecb to signal he has expanded qe. what effect that has on the bottom line growth, we are not sure yet. -- it may prop up or prop down euro, which will help him. one analyst from nomura -- the bayer's, the gloom, and the handwringing over commodities is flat out wrong. once oil stopped falling, an american consumer renaissance will occur. chiefrosenberg is a economic strategists in toronto.
6:06 am
he believes the canadians will win the stanley cup. fabulous to have you with us today. people perceive you as a gloomy guy, always cautious. it has been a two-your shift, and now you're ever more optimistic. state your case. david: i am optimistic on the u.s. because it has such tremendous autonomous domestic demand that it can actually decouple from the rest of the world. i never believe the rest of the world can decouple from the u.s. we talk about china so much. more thanmports 50% it exports. it is still the buyer of last resort for the world's economy. and of course you see that in the deteriorating trade performance that is only negative for the u.s. right now. you put it completely accurately, that you have to differentiate between what is good deflation and bad deflation. in the united states, being a
6:07 am
net raw material importer, for commodity producers it is not good news but this is margin expansion for companies that use raw materials in their business input. for consumers it is a huge boon for their purchasing power. tom: alan greenspan would use the phrase "conundrum." janet yellen has the rosenberg conundrum. she wants to be an adult and look beyond the commodity implosion and say we do not care commodity, we are x deflation. how does that change her dialogue and analysis of december or into next year? david: i think that janet yellen, in the opening months she took over at the helm of the fed, when she is talking about that time lag between the end of qe and the first rate hike, i think she did not mention it for roughly six months. the veryadline news
6:08 am
next day, but it made perfect sense. in the spring they should have moved off zero. but they got freaked out over the negative, what turned out to be an negative first quarter gdp with a seasonal maladjustment. gdp, we hadminal that in the second quarter of this year. david: i am going back to janet yellen. the thing that she said in her press conference was that the financial conditions had tightened, so why are we going to jump onto that tightening by raising rates at this particular meeting? here is the problem. -- i think they boxed themselves in. why, then, are we looking at third-quarter earnings to decline 4.6%? companies are not feeling it yet.
6:09 am
the consumer is not feeling it yet. david: i think it is almost a bifurcation. , the s&p,earnings that is not gdp. the u.s. may be 10% of the local economy, that affects a percentage of the gdp. derived in sales are the global economy. when you are looking at europe, asia, things are across the pond -- things across the pond are pretty soft. then on top of that you have a strong u.s. dollar that has -- the domestic side of the economy is doing fine. homebuilders are doing quite well. retailers are doing quite well. we just saw nike report good numbers as well. not in the u.s., but in china. i guess china bought running
6:10 am
shoes to run away from the stock market there. ,t is an idiosyncratic selective stock market right now. francine: you are talking about the softness across upon. that is where i am sitting, in london. when would you make the case for interest rates to rise for the fed and the rest of the world? david: the only reason i would make the case for the rates to rise is you can live in the here and now or actually operate monetary policy with a view for its impact down the road. policyknow that monetary operates with long and variable time lags. central bankers do not operate their policy based on the view of what is coming down 12 months. they are operating it because they lived in the moment like everybody else does. the question is, can you perennially keep the funds rate close to zero where nominal gdp
6:11 am
without creating major imbalances down the road? tom: david rosenberg is with us today. we have much to talk about. coming up later today on bloomberg television, a busy day for federal reserve comments, from the new york federal reserve. one william dudley will speak. we will hang on every word as he voices a certain tone. then a more important tone at 3:00 p.m., when janet yellen will speak. and the man in the middle, james bullard, he of the st. louis cardinals, will speak at 3:00 p.m. as well. we speak economics, finance, investment, and international relations. this is "bloomberg surveillance." good morning. ♪
6:12 am
6:13 am
6:14 am
everyone.morning, we begin four hours of "bloomberg surveillance." some important economic data out. first, we need our world headlines. here is francine in london. warning signsomic crop up in japan, raising the prospect of recession for the second time in as many years. analysts expected an increase in retail sales, that they did not improve during the month. the trends might push the government and the central bank in japan to prop up the economy. russian troops are one step closer to joining the fighting in syria. lawmakers have approved president vladimir putin's request to use military force. he is supporting syria's president, bashar al-assad, in
6:15 am
the country's civil war. key economic data came out today . the british economy regains the losses it suffered during the recession. the second quarter was higher than any level since 2008, but this eurozone, the inflation, unexpectedly turned negative in september. unemployment in germany rose this month, although the jobless rates stay the same. in's bring in hans nichols berlin. how much should we worry about -0.1?ion being at how much should we worry about the german unemployment figure going up? hans: the latter one is almost more. or story of the last three four months, leave aside the funky data we got out of greece where we saw greece gdp go back up. the story is germany is going along steady as she goes, and
6:16 am
this is the first indication that germany might be affected by all the global financial turmoil. this number, the unemployment number, i doubt it has any volkswagen effect. it is too immediate. longer-term, your flu -- your view on inflation -- is it driven by energy costs or is there something else putting pressure on wages? we need more data. it makes it all more important, the meeting of the ecb governing council in malta. francine? are we expecting more qe from mario draghi? we think it is driven by the energy component. but if you are mario draghi, how do you interpret this? draghi's main signal -- is it the inflation number or the gdp? deflation puts a little more pressure on him.
6:17 am
if it is gdp, he may have a little more room. he has hinted that he will increase quantitative easing if he needs to. he has pushed it down just with his hints. we sayme of that and mx -- some of the dynamics, days of rosenberg -- some of the dynamics, david rosenberg is with us this morning. are we going to have a 1990's dollar? david: there are probably about six questions right there. tom: i am fired up, david. can look at the dollar as a crimp on u.s. exports. but i look at the dollar as a low price. tom: it shows the strength of the american economy. david: the u.s. economy is the one i'd man. one-eyed man.
6:18 am
in 1998 the u.s. dollar went screaming higher. exports were going down in the second half of 1998. isn was below 50 each month in the second half of 1998. we finished the year with 5% in real terms. you had 10% that was negative and you had an economy growing at a 4% annual rate. tom: p a trudeau, wanted to make quebec in canada a european province. the dollar was terrible. the oil renaissance came, and you are back to 134. are we going to see another anothercanada as we see implosion? david: canada is one of the underlying countries that have -- a lot of that is because of the weaker dollar has a huge antidote to inflation.
6:19 am
we are talking about deflation here, talking about commodities. we are not living in the davy crockett/paul bunyan era anymore. is runninge cpi close to a 3% annual rate. -- so anything you can see, touch, or feel, that is deflating. but you cannot see services. whether it is education services, entertainment services. service sector inflation is being masked by deflation. you were talking about strength and dollar and how that is linked to strength in the economy. you have central banks that are clearly diverging. if you were to set interest rates for the global world, it would be going down, not up. how much is dollar strength linked to gdp and growth in the u.s., and how much is it links to weakness everywhere else?
6:20 am
david: i would say that we have a template for this. why we walk around not looking at what history books tell us. we have a third of the world go bankrupt in 1997-1998. those regions go down 70%, 80%. some of the economies contracted down to 20%. take a look at what interest rates did globally during that punto. they melted. u.s. economy -- did it ultimately go into some sort of destabilizing recession? havehe u.s. economy prosperity? actually they did. tom: let's come back with david rosenberg. hans nichols, thank you so much, from berlin. we will continue with francine

6:25 am
this as european countries migrants from in other countries. vonnie: i would argue that it is a little bit of a contentious op-ed from martin wolf, but he is the parents of refugees himself, so it is normal and desirable to move somewhere else when you are under political or economic pressure at home. tom: i thought exactly as you said, it was a very contentious article. francine, give us an update on refugees and migrants in europe. what should we look for as we get to the end of the week? francine: this is probably the most important political decisions that the e.u. has to take, not because it is a human story, but it also has the potential to bring up extremist
6:26 am
parties. watch out for this one. angela merkel is paying -- is playing a very key role in this. vonnie: and hungary and a couple of other countries have said they will not take in anymore. tom: the count is the issue, the scale of it, rather. thousands here, thousands here. it is a scale issue. as we move on from the ballet of the u.n. and all that, there is "now what" feeling that martin wolf gets in his column as well. we are with david rosenberg. stay with us on inflation. good morning. ♪

in measured fees. costco sells large volumes of at lowo consumers prices. it is the second largest retailer in the u.s. eliminating 740 jobs, 15% of its workforce. the company has been hurt by falling natural gas prices. they are down almost 60% since early 2014. and the nhl visits the scene of hockey's most famous comedy. bay played an exhibition in johnstown, pennsylvania. hockey is big in the small town of 20,000. the aging arena where the film was set, "slap shot." tom: this was a huge deal a million years ago. the syracuse old dogs looked awfully good. -- the syracuse bulldogs looked

6:34 am
were the home buying plans index , which went up to its highest level in three months. household formation is starting to pick up. building permits are on a rising trend. my sense is that housing starts the next couple of years will be up 40%, 50% from where they are right now. vonnie: who will be buying? not millennials. david: we are creating job 25 to in that critical 30-year category. a lot of these boomerangs that were living with ma and pa are starting to come out. a lot of them will move into rental units first. you could argue the single family has the single biggest impact on the economy. tom: but you will take
6:35 am
multifamily right now? david: you are starting to find household rates starting to rise in the single-family area and a switch from what was a pronounced bull market. i think that will be the next leg up for the housing sector. vonnie: the story yesterday, a lot of the luxury -- a majority of the luxury sales in manhattan were going to canadian buyers. how are they doing it with the loony? david: that is a big surprise? -- that is a big surprise. that is a big surprise to hear that. do not have an expiration because the bottom line is that it does not make much sense. you want to start buying the currency or the assets of the currency. tom: let's pin you down for the canadian viewers. loonie?ut the

6:38 am
china have never even stepped the foot inside china, but they have somehow this educated opinion of what is happening there. the manufacturing sector is declining as a share of the chinese economy as the rebalance away from dust realization toward -- from industrialization toward consumer services. there was an article in "the economist" this week and in "the financial times," saying how service data is undercounted. you have an economy with a 4% employment rate. -- a 4% unemployment rate. people base their decisions on what is happening in the economy and what is happening in the purchasing managers index. i think people draw their conclusions based on hearsay and what people tell them. tom: i never do this, but i am going to break the rules. we have an offspring back from china visiting, who said exactly
6:39 am
what mr. rosenberg just said. vonnie: i think he reads "the economist" as well. tom: and he said there is a massive miscount. vonnie: surely that leads to demand for metals, so what is the bearish outlook on commodities? david: manufacturing activity in china is contracting. i would say five years ago, 10 years ago, that would be a really big deal because back then that was china's bread-and-butter, industrialization infrastructure. part of their five-year plan, which will be part of their 10, 15, 20-year plan, is to be an economic superpower like the u.s. you will not do that with the personal savings rate of 40%. they are where the u.s. was 150 years ago. this is part of their emergence from being an emerging economy.

barely slept less night. i gave her a pre-look at my single best chart, which is a rollout of my chart of the year, to remind our viewers glued to as each and every day -- i trotted out the bloomberg commodity index and then inflation adjusted it and took it back to 1956, which is when david rosenberg first began looking at commodity dynamics. here is what you need to know. inflation-adjusted, the old cr the chartold crd, is boom on the right. before that, the technological progress of the commodity miracle. david, you wrote about this in
6:44 am
my book and you wrote about it decades before. the gloom over commodities -- it is normal to see dampened commodity prices throughout long cycles. chart you can take that back 200 or 300 years, and it was the same chart. there will be some new story, the china story that causes an uptick or some sort of boom for a few years, and then the trend reasserts itself. the bottom line is technology. frackingy this time is . it will be u.s. technology that goes global. so the bottom line is that i take a look at that chart, as an theomist, and i look at late 1970's to the late 1990's, and it is basically going down. that was a period of unbridled prosperity in the united states. people associate economy -- people associate commodity
6:45 am
deflation, if you are a commodity exporter -- you do not go to walmart and buy a pound of copper. the raw material does is go into the production process. tom: it is the idea of bringing economies and securities analysis into economics. do you agree that with a commodity implosion and the reset that all we need to see is commodity balance sheets clear, like glencore, and once it is clear, we move on? am i right? david: you are right. ,e are talking about glencore and it almost looks like what happened with worldcom and enron . then we had the washout. that happened in 2002. if you looked at that and said this washout -- vonnie: you mean from a financial market's point of view.
6:46 am
be caught could just in fear saying we are going to have another leg down. wash that out, and then have another four or five years of expansion. a worldcom and enron, we had double dip that was temporary, then we washed out and moved on. is this idea, it of reset, which is the core of what mr. rosenberg is saying. francine: you are also saying that basically falling commodities is something that emerging markets should be looking forward to. my question to you is, inflation is going down, driven by these commodity prices. does that impact consumption directly so that people spend more because they feel richer, or does it help companies keep production costs down? david: i am making a differentiation that it is not good news for emerging markets that are commodity producers. the firstnada -- in half of gdp -- in the first half u.s.e year, gdp was -- the
6:47 am
is a net raw materials importer. it is basically a user of commodities. it is not like some final good. it is not like a house that you live in, which is a principal asset. basically, the reality is the reason why u.s. consumer spending in volume terms is running 2.3% right now, because they're practically is no inflation. there is deflation every growth that you see in the u.s.. plow through photos right now. i hear we have some good ones. vonnie: farmers in china are forming the chinese flag. look at this -- thousands of persimmons. it is beautiful. it is pretty controversial it ise apparently intended to boost retail sales. tom: next. vonnie: i think you have another

7:35 am
on the off chance something goes the senate'sin effort to transfer the bill, i am told by obama administration officials they can keep the government open as long as they know the house will eventually vote on that, the question is whether house republicans can muster enough votes to shut the government down, that question is off the table. decisionohn boehner's to announce his retirement clear the way for him to get democrats and to help them pass the bill and the biggest roadblocks for now are gone. it is the future that everybody is worrying about. michael: the future is maybe november december when we get to the debt ceiling limit, there is talk that john boehner may try to move that vote up to take the heat while he is still in office? phil: it would be difficult but among the things people are looking at. the reason comes from straight -- come straight from john boehner. john boehner: if there is a way

they will try and figure out how much they can get off kevin mccarthy's plate before he takes the new role. michael: they want to use the debt ceiling thing is a political issue rather than dealing with it as something that must be done for the government? phil: that is right and a problem they run into, it was an effective mechanism in the majority starting in 2011. starting in 2013, the obama administration decided in a closed-door meeting, they would no longer negotiate on the debt ceiling, they would no longer allow republicans to use that as a mechanism to secure spending cuts. that position has not changed. i talked to officials in the last 24 hours and they said absolutely not, no negotiating and that sets up a fight. and i do not care, we just want to know are we going to get the jobs data on friday?

to be better? >> my understanding is current conditions in the u.s. would allow them to raise interest if the global environment stabilizes. the fed is more focused on the employment market. i think you will find nearly all of the fed officials will even some sort of form and the folks curve which basically says if you want to get inflation higher, more people to work. it causes inflation to rise, which is what really fuels headline inflation. a weak number be probably has more impact than a strong number. most i know do not expect the fed to raise rates next month. if there is an opportunity this year, it is probably in december. the not convinced government closes now, but when we get the debt ceiling and possibly taking a hand down on the spending bills to the middle
8:07 am

the governor would actually be interested in doing that given the size of the debt the country has piled up? good question. he caught us by surprise a year ago last october when he expanded the balance sheet target $60 trillion to 80 joined dollars. i think he had advisor from the government that more stimulus was needed, and this is both monetary as well as a supplemental budget. my own guess is that they do not expand the balance sheet but they could tweak what they are buying. buying everything except my comic books. the bond market and the money markets in japan have not had an effective course on corporations as well as investors. your books would obviously add a lot to the japanese economy. if they do not do anything else, what happens to the end? story, theyng

how he navigates remains to be seen. studied brown economics and there is a point and fiscal policy where you take a victory lap. inm fascinated have nobody washington -- everyone is so miserable and nobody can take a victory lap over where the deficit to gdp is. at 2.4%,ficit is historical lows compared to the 30 year average. they have brought in the whichtionary spending looks basically flat because of the sequester which was put into place a few years ago. why cannot they just move on from this issue? the spending caps and austerity issues seem to be resonating with this rank-and-file of the republican party. michael: if we leave the caps in by doing a continuing
9:05 am
resolution, the country gets bigger and that cap's more tightly so austerity continues. the cbo which is the consummate authority on the flatt spending projects spending and nothing is done. they think there is some hope that there could be a broader budget deal over the next month when speaker john boehner is still in place. there are only 14 legislative days in the next month so a bigger budget deal to relax these caps looks unlikely. it looks like probably flat fiscal spending and 0% contribution to gdp from the government over the next year, that's our case. what about tax receipts? we used to talk about this like a gospel. are we at record tax receipts? are well taxed.
9:06 am
michael: they are getting record tax receipts from eyes. >> that matters because that will inform when the country preaches the debt ceiling which of the other fiscal inflection point we had -- that congress will have to address in the fall. has said we will reach the debt ceiling probably by the end of october. that does not account for the cash balances that treasury runs which is $125 billion now. dip intos likely to the cash balance and that should push the debt ceiling deadline to around and of november. that is right when the government shutdown possibility will be occurring. this convergence of fiscal policy events we think will lead to an increase in the chances of a policy mistake. that's right when the fed is going to be contemplating raising the interest rate. michael: does a drop in the
9:07 am
market change the tax receipt picture significantly? >> you know, it's not necessarily that sensitive. impact.have a marginal it depends what people are selling like long-term holdings. >> it doesn't help short-term. michael: where do we see the receipts going over the next year? i guess that depends on your call on how much the economy grows. >> yes, it is dependent on economic growth. our outlook has been around the 2.5% for gdp for the next year. but not gang buster growth pretty solid growth. that is assuming government spending is pretty much flat. if we saw a relaxation of the

9:09 am
i think there is a concern about national security and national preparedness. with afghanistan, we have a small troop presence in iraq and what you have going on in the broader middle east. i think people worry that if we continue to cut back on defense spending that we will be in jeopardy longer-term. michael: the republicans want to increase. >> some republicans do. there is a real division within the gop. you have the deficit hawks who don't want to see any discretionary spending on defense or nondefense increased. then you have a real outspoken contingency like senator mccain who is advocating for a relaxation. that is another reason why we policy uncertainty will increase because you don't have a cohesive view when what should happen within the gop now. tom: we will come back on this.

in congress to provide more oversight to the fed. those have not been successful so a lot of this is rhetoric that resonates with the base but does not go anywhere in a legislative perspective. it does not look like these nominees are likely to get confirmed in the foreseeable future. it could potentially happen next year. who knows? we have to ask the key question -- does peyton manning still have it? know, as a fellow denverite, we saw john elway do this and adjust to a new defense. we saw him win super bowl's at 38. i'm not going to say that he does not still have it but certainly the last three games,

organization that impede the ability of women to succeed. daivd: is there a point where this begins to happen more and more? absolutely, one of the main things we found is that if you can recruit women and promote them to their first promotion, help them get through the beginning, you have a greater chance of developing them through the organization. we found that women at the top were less likely to leave them early hired women. the barriers set him in the middle and upper 10 year levels. i am struck by how robust this conversation is. the sheryl sandberg book did well and people are taking this more seriously than they did before. what needs to happen for that to become more actionable? >> companies need to take action. one thing we found is that the vast majority of ceos, almost

80%, will say this is a priority. it is a priority to them but when you ask their organization and the men and women to rank them as a preorder two, less than 50% believe that is the case. in business, if you don't believe something is a priority, you'll probably not act on it. the first thing is to amp up the intensification. you can make sure that keep a practical actions that can help. are there sectors where this happens better than others? there has been a disparity in silicon valley. are others doing particularly well? >> we see improvements in health care. we see that technology lags behind. one thing worth noting as part of that is related to the education pipeline. likewe look at stem engineering computer science, not as many women graduates. we are seeing those numbers

decline in the u.s. over the last decade. the most jobs in so much opportunity is in the tech field. one thing is the early stage of making sure we bring women into the education field and line them up for these jobs. in the technology sector, we don't see that. thank you very much and the report's women at. tomorrow, general richard myers. this is "bloomberg surveillance." ♪
