probability. he's joined the optimists. he's like ok, bill, catch up. nice. francine: we also have to talk about bangs after the financial stability board made it real. banks have to hold this amount of money. tom: isn't that a fact, francine, the swiss banks are ahead. everybody is chasing zurich, am i right on that? francine: you are right but they have much stringent rules and has been the last couple months. tom: do people know we're on speaking terms unlike me and vonny? francine: is that for real? tom: francine, how cool is that? francine: let's get the bloomberg first word news. >> good morning. there may an crackdown in the wake of the british plane crash in egypt. the officials say the crash was caused by a bomb. the u.k. secretary says higher levels of security may be needed and could be more delays in airports.
5:02 am
in the u.k., government agencies say budget cuts. there is a plan today the treasury of the department that transports local governments and environments will have their budgets cut 8% over four years as part of an austerity drive, prime minister david cameron began in 2010. the world's biggest banks are avoiding a lehman brothers collapse. the stability board published a plan for banks seen as too big for fail. fail has to have lots of absorbing capacity, equivalent to 16% of their assets by 2019 and will have to rise to 18% three years after that. and it may take weeks before we learn whether voters rejected the military ruling party. the opposition leader urged supporters to stay calm even if the opposition wins yesterday's election, the military is still guaranteed 25% of defeat in parliament. and the world's largest -- third largest platinum producer has avoided a potential

shutdown. south africa will raise $400 million by selling shares of 94%. and the stockholders will get 46% new shares for every one they hold. lonmin with high dead and falling platinum prices. more on these stories 24 hours a day on bloomberg.com. from the first word desk, the same desk but the first word desk, vonnie quinn. tom: what a thrill. francine will jump in with european equities because i'm a moron and didn't do it. it's u.s. centric after what we saw friday in the jobs report, 2.34%. the euro-dollar, 1.07 and the yen is more interesting and the crude over in europe, the world price, 47.75. the second board, we're showing the complacency.
5:04 am
the dollar is the feature, 124.77 is the weekly weakness in yen and really moved in the last 48 hours of trading. francine, over to the terminal here, a quick shot to get the monday going, 30-year bond, two decades, volker off to the left and the lehman, the banks news, down we go. the great moderation really still in track when you look at that long-term u.s. look at the 30-year in england. francine: we look at the jobs report and janet yellen's expectations and it is having repercussion on european equities. it's early but we're in full swing in europe. tom: and the answer is a his'. francine: no, they're concerned about the fed liftoff and european equity is down for the third time in five days. let's get to the guest host. now the head of renaissance macro. tom keeps saying you're the
5:05 am
ultimate economist we have and when we look at the forecast and expecting the o.c.d. to come down with new forecast, they keep getting revised downwards. are you not worried there is something out there be it trade or inflation, much scarier than we thought. neil: inflation is probably scarier than trade. a lot of these arguments for being negative on the u.s. economy have been with us for quite some time. global economic weakness will spill over to the u.s. creating a feedback loop and disinflation in the u.s. and weaker export growth. but at the end of the day, jobs continue to grow at a rate sufficient to keep pushing the unemployment rate down and i think that's ultimately what matters. for a policymaker. you know, 185,000 jobs a month, francine, with on average the last three months is more than enough to push the u.s. jobless rate down. if the progress in the labor markets flows and there's no
5:06 am
evidence that it is. then you start to get worried. but, you know, so right now i think the onus is really on the more definitelyish members to make their case, the more bearish folks in the market consensus. francine: tom, weigh in on this. when you look at the jobs number, is december a done deal and are the aamericanning markets ready for a liftoff even though it's a small interest rate rise? neil: i don't think they're -- if you look what happened in 2013 when we had this temper tantrum like event. the aamericanning markets that got hit the most were the ones with the biggest current account deficit. so you have to ask yourself has there been a significant account improvement in these balances the last two years. some have and some have not. some of the latin american countries have seen wider deficits than in 2013. there will somebody pain particularly across some swath of the emerging market complex. that being said, you know, the fed has to make sure that the u.s. house is in order and i think the labor market is
5:07 am
giving the fed a green light and think that will be the case for the foreseeable future. my expectation is that they go in december and go again in march. francine: tell me about the pace of the interest rate rises. i also want to bring in -- we spoke about the cargo ship saying global growth is slowing down and trade is weaker than it significantly would being under the growth forecast we see. is there a danger the fed has to reverse course? neil: it's more of a structural issue. there's no law that says trade has to grow faster than g.d.p. francine: the global economy, right? neil: it is but trade elacticity has been slowing for quite some time. in the 1990's, trade would grow two times faster than global production and now growing one for one. again, i just come back to the u.s., it all comes back to the u.s. labor market and the big debate really for the fed was
5:08 am
whether the phillip curve was still useful or not. i think the governor went into the meeting and made her case. i think yellen and fisher made theirs. and i think it's pretty clear who won. tom: you go to the heart of the matter which is the elacticity or responsibleness of the global economy. there was a book "globalization and its discontent." how discontented are the emerging markets? we have o.c.d. coming out this hour and katherine man in the next hour. are they discontented with the u.s. or note the u.s. is the engine along with the united kingdom that will keep them going? neil: the unfortunate reality is the u.s. is a pretty weaken begin for global growth. tom: it's all we got, right? neil: it is. i grow to the global trade elacticity argument. a lot of the improvement in global trade in the 1990's and easterly eye 200's was probably a response to one-time policy changes that are now fading and
5:09 am
we have more automation and that creates -- makes labor cost less important to companies in the u.s. you have more reshoring in places like the u.s., the u.k., germany. that all will be to the detriment of emerging markets. tom: you and i had endless interviews. the idea brazil is a one-off or does it show linkages to other commodity based emerging markets that are challenged? vonnie: i'm curious the markets seem to be leading the fed up to this previous meeting and now we have the market maybe almost lagging and the market participants that don't see a december hike. neil: for years now, market participants have gotten used to the fed bending their rate estimates to the market pasts. and i think next year it's the market i think that will have to readjust their assessment. the fed signaling a gradual interest rate path. that means four rate hikes. the market barely priced for three between now and the end of next year.
5:10 am
i think early next year the unemployment rate in the u.s. will be below 5% and inflation close to 2% if you assume stable oil pricess. so we're right there. and i think you're going to have a more hawkish shift in the market than is currently priced in. now then again, i've been saying that for a while but i think it's been lining up in that direction. francine: we talked about emerging markets. what about china? they need more stimulus and we had dire figures from china today and then there's a school of shot that says they'll have to reduce interest rates and they are euro bound and will be copping the fed years down the line and is game changer for the world. neil: for china, what we're talking about is having a short run problem hitting the growth target and the longer run structure. the tradeoff are two things. it is a good sign china is doing more traditional forms of still has and shows you they are tranigsing their economy
5:11 am
and market participants are looking at these old economy indicators and industrial output and rail code loading straight and won't give you the best sense of what is going on for china. we want to see consumer spending growing faster than the overall g.d.p. tom: we'll dive into the u.s. economy and in 20 minutes get the o.c.d. report and always important but also christian le guard's new mediocre. they're unfortunate in paris. they have katherine mann, one of the great international economists and we have her on set at 6:00 a.m., francine lack because and tom keene in new york. bloomberg surveillance. dd

5:14 am
francine: welcome back. you're looking at live pictures of david cameron. the prime minister speaking in london at the confederation of british industry. this is a big week for david cameron because he's finally going to send a list of requests to renegotiate the u.k.'s place within the e.u. and time for a global audience. look, if he gets this right and if he is seen to have a victory back home, then the referendum about whether the u.k. -- tom: who is the momentum right now? francine: the momentum 140/40 and too early at the moment so the renegotiation will be a game changer. tom: this is a huge deal. we're like yeah, yeah, yeah. francine: this is a huge deal and a real risk and more hedge funds are talking about why the u.k. could maybe leave the e.u. let's get to the bloomberg business flash with vonnie. vonnie: thank you very much. there could be a strike by flight attendants and the german airline says it won't affect 70% of its services. a serious strike by the lufthansa cost the airlines
5:15 am
more than $350 million. the energy company apache is trying to solicit the takeover bids. and they hired goldman sachs to work on a defense. no word who the buyer is and has a value of $18 billion. the latest trade figures from china. on to a three-week low. exports fell for the fourth straight month and imports fell for the 12th month in a row. demand for coal and iron and other commodities has plummeted. that's the business flash. francine: the biggest international banks need to raise $2.2 trillion by 2022 to prevent another lehman moment according to the plan for tackling banks seen as too big to fail. let's bring in john glover out of london. when you look at hsbc and jp morgan, have they done a lot or will they have to do more in terms of capital raising? john: they've done a fair amount. the development market banks have, the major ones, have got
5:16 am
-- are in a position to get to t-levels that they need. there shouldn't be any problem from the developed markets. and probably the chinese banks have the biggest issue but they've got more time. francine: mark carney heads the financial stability board and he was saying this is really a game-changer, right, major failure. the rules make major failure less likely. we knew the figure, the main worry, as you were saying, on chinese banks, how can we make sure that actually they don't pose a systemic risk? john: talk to the chinese ultimately because the point is that the f.s.b.'s aim is to bring in capital market investors so to quite a large extent they police the activities at the banks. they -- as mark carney themselves said, they have skin in the game. if you don't have capital markets and the chinese aren't
5:17 am
all the way there yet, then that's something of an issue. so they've got to deepen -- strengthen their capital market so the banks can access it and have to develop the investors base they need to ensure that their activities can be policed. francine: thank you so much for that, john glover in london. let's get back with neil. we were talking about the risks you see out there in terms of deflation. how much do you worry about systemic risk and when you look at the hedge funds exposure to commodity producers such as glencore or these big banks, can we make sure actually the next shock doesn't come from the financial sector sthp neil: first we have to acknowledge the financial sector is in a much healthier position today than it was five or six years ago. you know, if you look at things like cash on bank balance sheets, you know, it's up substantially. the u.s. banking system is significantly healthier today than it was at any point in the
5:18 am
last five years and that's being reflected in banks's propensity and willingness to lend money to households. i do think the previous speaker was right. if you look at places like emerging markets, banks, c.d.s. there is higher than it is in the u.s. i don't think there's a systemic risk from the u.s. and that's usually where a systemic risks come. tom: citigroup makes clear the only reason to raise rates opposite of what you think, neil, is it there are instabilities out there. where would we see financial instability? do we see it in a libor market and ancient times or offbalance sheets? i don't buy we see it offbalance sheets. neil: to me if you see a financial instability you'll see it in something like the equity earnings multiple, the p.e. multiple and if that's surging you know there's something going on.
5:19 am
tom: there's a bubble issue. neil: right now, i don't think it's an issue. tom: neil dutta with us. we'll get to him with a bang up jobs report. nux hour we'll speak to catherine mann and the court being held at the o.c.d. in paris and they'll be out with their global report and talk to dr. mann and about the co- dependenceys of the united states and china. stay with us. bloomberg "surveillance."

5:22 am
5:23 am
francine: all eyes on david cameron, the u.k. prime minister this week, there giving the speech to the confederation of british industries. why we care, because this week he puts the finishing touches to a letter he'll send to the e.u. and will be the basis of renegotiation. and that plays in -- tom: are you talking about -- francine: this is the letter to the u.s. council. we're big on traditions and it is important because he lays out what he wants to negotiate and plays out to the referendum. it's time for my morning must read and had to be about europe. harold james writes, after a prolonged euro and sovereign debt crisis polarized and radicalized the confident creating a deep north-south risk, thousands of refugees had pitted the east against the west. add to that, numerous over contradictions and divides and the e.u.'s class seems to many more likely than ever. tom: that's quite a statement.
5:24 am
he is one of the giants of economic history. francine: it is a statement, a statement a lot of people will disagree with you because it's the way the e.u. works. tom: you see a tension? francine: the north-south, i think we're over that and now have to deal with the refugee crisis and the east against france and the hikes. let's get straight to neil dutta. when you look at this and look at the e. urment, there's -- e.u., in europe we think it will stay together but no matter what happens, the political will is there for a strong union. do you see it differently on the side of the states? neil: no, we all know europe is not yet an optimal currency area and was established at the time the euro experiment started and we all sort of knew that but in terms of radicalized politics, the cyclical recovery in europe is marginalizing more of the radical parties and look what's going on with the spanish election. the sort of far left party is losing in the polls pretty
5:25 am
substantially. so let's not forget that quietly under all of these sort of negative headlines, we are seeing more integration in europe. tom: vonnie, you lived it in ireland. ireland is totally different than the united kingdom. do you see a further integration or is there a polarity? vonnie: personally i'm not expressing an opinion but adds fuel to the fire to the extreme parties but when it comes down to voting for new leadership, i don't think it actually votes them into power except on the margins. tom: in the east-west, francine, tell us about the right-left polarity in the united kingdom. i was taken aback by mr. corbyn as you celebrated, not celebrated but remembered remembrance day this monday, explain it to the americans. francine: neil points out, the first time we saw in the u.k. is you do have more radicalized parties and to vonnie's point they don't get elected but
5:26 am
shift the policy. if you have extreme policies, you don't have a moderate politician that can make points that talk to everyone. tom: is david cameron a moderate politician? francine: he's center right so he's more moderate than the extreme parties like in france or the other side in spain. tom: i'm trying to figure out david cameron on "saturday night live" and can't get there. neil, can you get there, david cameron, "saturday night live"? vonnie: mr. corbyn maybe. i would watch that. tom: that was a great morning with harold james. francine: germany's flagship airline lufthansa cancels thousands of flights as the strike spreads. francine: welcome back.

6:42 am
sense. now, what i amng worried about is the mergers and acquisitions which are driven by cheap money and the high stock valuations producing competition in the marketplace. if you have one big company, they don't need to do any real investment because you do not have to compete for market share. it is really bad for the prospects for real investment going forward. tom: this is what we do with catherine mann. we do rip up the script squared. [laughter] tom: we are going to do binomial functions in a minute. if you do this and you end up with low nominal gdp, where everybody has to merge together, that completely screws up the finance function, doesn't it? we see it across a number of different categories. people will argue that for pharmaceuticals, the mn day is important -- m&a is important

because it brings in the new ideas with a system that can do the trials. i'm not going to argue with that, but across the board in general, it is not going to be good for the real economy. i want to go back to your chart. francine: back to the script. tom: back to the script. there is a shocking lack of investment in europe. europe is so far behind. outlook, we dour this.t the u.s., japan, the euro area, they all have the same decline, the same depth of recession, in terms of the same loss to investment, but europe never took off because, in part, the ecb was late to the game and increased interest rates. they were late to the game in terms of quantitative easing. there were issues that presented them from moving forward with the same pace.
6:44 am
then, of course, the fiscal approach in europe has been very different than what was undertaken in the united states and the u.k.. francine: this is because of austerity, right? austerity well, actually brought yields down and then they also kill the economy. yields are down for two reasons. if you kill the economy, there are no yields either. there was a downward spiral. now, we can pick up the pieces. we have done some exercises on how structural policies combine with the quantitative easing that is in place. moving forward with the public sector investment, that package of things really could take things off --allow things to take off. tom: i'm going to steal a chart from francine lacqua. everybody gets upset in europe
6:45 am
with how i pronounce her name. we are going to talk about the collapsing crisis and a modest and gentle rollover. global gdp, 2.9%. that is a 2% markup, that redline. professor, it is the idea that we are searching for a new dynamism, a new dynamic. where is it? catherine: good question. if we knew where it was, we hopefully would already have done it. if we look at the combination of countries and the magnitudes of the various country groups, we really need to have europe back on track, growing faster than the projection of 1.8% that is better, but it is actual -- absolutely too slow for complacency. consumption and exports. the euro depreciation has been very positive for supporting exports. there is a concern that the ,ittle bit of an uptick in euro
6:46 am
of course it depends on investment coming back, it depends on structural reforms being put in place -- the policymakers cannot be complacent. they've got to keep making these reforms, putting together the package of fiscal, structural, and monetary. francine: are you more worried about a monetary policy mistake or fiscal policies not being there? catherine: i'm more worried about fiscal policies not being there. mario draghi has made it clear what he is doing. he has been transparent about his objectives. they are a long way away from targets. my concern is about structural, where momentum has really fallen in the countries. there was a lot of change, a lot of structural reform done on the periphery, ireland, spain, italy, greece. we still meet structural reform done on the big guys. tom: catherine mann with us from the oecd.

is a redux of the 90's. catherine: the thing about that chart is that used to be able to call it the brooklyn bridge chart. now, with the average income of the market, i'm going to have to call it something else. what happened in those other moments? it is when the u.s. was much stronger than the rest of the economy. everybody flows in. they saw growth. that is where we are again. people say it is because the fed is going to raise interest rates. they are raising interest rates because the u.s. economy is strong and that is what people are investing in and that is what you see happening in that diagram. francine: the last time the peoplewas at this level, said it will have an impact on exporters. are we going to see the same? what does it mean for interest rate hikes? catherine: it has already had an impact on the exporters.
6:53 am
of the pieces of research done at the federal reserve is that the extent to which the decrease in exports or export competitiveness that comes from the higher dollar has greater implications for the u.s. economy and it lasts for longer than in those earlier time periods. it is more important than before. that means that the fed is going to be watching very carefully for the extent to which the dollar goes higher. i think most of the money is already in place. the portfolio reallocation has been done over the summer. a little bit more to go. i think the damage is already been done. i don't think it is going to affect the fed's liftoff decision. whether or not it affects the trajectory, they are very clear about it being a very gradual trajectory. have now they suggested that maybe it will not be as gradual was a might have

6:55 am
quickly. they want to make sure the u.s. economy is sound and the rest of the global economy can also bear any brunt. if there is not a move in december, it will be because they do not think the time is right from the standpoint of the package. i do not think it is going to affect mario draghi. his focus is on the european economy. is that the faces other two components of policy, fiscal and structural, need to be in place for his policy to have traction. he made that very clear at the center of the speech he gave in june in portugal. he said, why am i talking about structural policy? it is because he cannot get to his 2% target if the economies cannot adjust. it is about structural. vonnie: how much has the oecd discussed the migrant crisis in europe and how much that will impact the crisis -- the economy in europe?
