12:00 pm
from bloomberg's world headquarters in new york, good afternoon, i am scarlet fu. are down sharply today. opec ministers decide to retain oil output at 31.5 million barrels a day. nigeria says of the cartel may meet again before june if prices keep falling. adds 211,000omy jobs in november, topping analyst estimates. does this clear the way for a fed liftoff this month? lyft forms a global alliance to take on uber. how will they respond? let's go to the markets desk where matt miller has been checking the numbers. we are clawing back some of the numbers from yesterday's job report. matt: take a look at the indexes to see where we are going. up across the board and we continue to rise.
12:01 pm
the dow jones now adding 222 points, not the highs of the day, but if you look at the intraday chart, you can see the trend is up. we crested around 11:00, but with any luck, for the longs, we will hold it there. i have this function on my terminal. this breaks down the industry groups in the s&p and shows their volume in comparison to the average volume over the past 20 days. we are doing better volume in the s&p overall. financials, telecom, utilities are up. the lastg-time, double 20 days. everything is showing gains with the exception of industrials and health-care stocks, in terms of volume. i want to mention also chipotle. the stock is very important to me, as a massive eater of also a concern
12:02 pm
because e. coli has been a real concern. the cdc has come out and said they found additional cases linked to chipotle food in three additional states. as a result, the stock is down right now 4%. consumer?chipotle scarlet: not a big fan. matt: it is so delicious. scarlet: a little too salty. matt: personal decision. newmont mining, it boosted its production targets. it also said a couple days ago that production will be cheaper, so margins will be better. gold rising today as well. take a look at apple. an interesting story out that $540ng has agreed to remit million in patent fees to apple,
12:03 pm
and i just looked at the chart and apple has $205 billion in cash, so half a billion is not really putting a debt in their finances. nothing to sneeze at. scarlet: thank you. we will be checking in later on for some individual movers. let's get to the headlines now with mark crumpton. new details are emerging about one of the suspects in that deadly shooting rampage in california. there are reports that tashfeen malik pledged allegiance to the islamic state. alias totedly used an pledge on facebook and then deleted it before the attack. she was a pakistani who came to the u.s. in 2014 to marry syed farook. both died in a shootout with police. 14 were killed and 21 others wounded in that shooting at a social services center in san bernardino. united states has launched a major effort to track down and
12:04 pm
kill the leader of islamic state , according to an obama administration official who says he has gone into hiding. the official says that at the current pace, the u.s. is killing a mid to high level islamic state reader every two days. a cafe where five people were killed in the attacks in paris has reopened. the trendycafe in central paris district has been shuttered since the attack. mourners have been piling flowers outside of the cap outdoors. england governor mark carney is backing a global effort on companies and climate change. the goal is to bring greater transparency to the way companies disclose risks. willr mayor mike bloomberg lead a panel on voluntary company reporting standards. bloomberg is the founder and majority owner of bloomberg lp, the parent company of bloomberg news. tonight at 8:00 and 11:00 eastern time, changing climate,
12:05 pm
changing business. john nichols discusses the implications of climate change on the financial markets with former mayor mike bloomberg and fsb chair mark carney. that is a look at our first word news right now. you can get more 24 hours a day at the new bloomberg.com. back to you. scarlet: thank you. opec is rattling the oil market. the group has decided to retain production at 31.5 million barrels a day, according to the secretary of nigeria. he also says opec may meet again before june if prices keep falling. ryan chilcote is on the scene indiana with the latest. opec said prices tumbling a year ago when they decided not to cut production. this time around, they have set a new ceiling. what does this mean?
12:06 pm
ryan: this was the most chaotic outcome of an opec meeting i have seen in years. agreeduntries said they to raise the production ceiling to 31.5 million, some countries said they agreed to keep it at 30 million. the opec secretary-general said that they agreed to wait until their next meeting in june to decide on a number. communique,their the gospel of what they agreed on, they avoided the subject altogether. this means, effectively, the ministers coming out of the meeting, very few of them speaking. they did not actually agree on anything. the price of oil dipped below $40 a barrel. so there seems to be a lot of confusion. there was an informal meeting the day before, which is a typical. tell us about that which set the
12:07 pm
tone for today's meeting. it is just very indicative of the huge amounts of disagreement among the countries about saudi arabia's strategy, which they embarked on with the rest of the group a year ago. that strategy has been to allow production to arise around the world with the goal of pushing out those high cost producers, deep water projects, with the expectation that eventually when they are squeezed out, the price of oil will rise. the disagreement among opec countries really was in place yesterday. we had those very unusual meetings before the official meeting today, and then today's meeting itself was incredibly long, triple the usual length. it included a completely unscheduled second session and we got all of these very confusing signals. what it means is different things for different countries.
12:08 pm
arabia, you are effectively free to do what you want with production. in byyou are still locked the sanctions, but as soon as those are released, they intend to return to the markets, and they have the go-ahead to do basically what they want. venezuela was looking for a youuction cut of 5%, but if have agreement on a production ceiling, which we have, then obviously there will be no cut. i don't know what to make of the fact that they said that they will meet again if prices continue to go lower. negative results for people within the group who were hoping to reduce output. scarlet: discord within opec. thank you, ryan chilcote. reporting live in vienna. you want to move to the november jobs report. employers added more jobs than wall street economists expected.
12:09 pm
the data appeared to bolster janet's confidence in the u.s. economy. joining us now with more is our intelligence economist. is there anything that would keep the fed from the normal policy? >> indefinitely pass the litmus test. it is really all systems go at this point. retail sales next friday will be worth keeping an ion. that is just not important enough to really derail things. there is really not much between now and december 16 to change things. that being said, geopolitics matter, markets matter. that is why fed funds futures are not expressing 100% certainty. scarlet: always exhaustion is shocks. let's get to the body of the report. you are looking at work hours and there is a troubling
12:10 pm
deceleration. report was good enough to justify liftoff, but once we get into the details, some troubling pockets beneath the surface. first of all, factory sector pain continues. some uneven job growth. one other detail that was disappointing was the decline in the work week. 140 million workers out there less ofyone works 1/10 an hour in the week. that has a huge implication for worker hours. you look at aggregate our growth, it pulled back 1/10 in the month, has been decelerating over a broader time horizon. you're on your growth rate has been slowing. these hours are correlated closely with household income growth. so if the number of hours is slipping, that does not bode well for household income, and
12:11 pm
in turn, household spending, which is the sole economic engine looking out over the next couple of quarters. scarlet: what about private servers uses job growth -- services job growth? >> it was fine but showed some degree of deceleration. we are focusing on the private sector to carry the economy forward as the goods producing sector is facing all of these headwinds from low energy prices, strong dollar, etc. another factor that may have been misleading in the reports is construction hiring. construction hiring has been accelerating the last few months, at the same time that output in the sector has been trailing off. so housing is not ending the year on a great note. that is a warm weather story. we have extended the building season due to the record warm temperatures we have seen to date. looking at the forecast, expected to continue through probably the end of the year. where is the fragility
12:12 pm
in the economy right now, what are the risks this could take down healthy parts of the economy? >> we are good enough to initiate liftoff but all of these underlying details suggest the economy is fragile. a strong dollar, energy price story will be significant, depressing factors. a lot of economists say manufacturing employment is only about 10% of private-sector employment, but there are a lot of service sector jobs -- transportation, engineering, finance -- that is tied into the health of the manufacturing sector. based on manufacturing ism -- falling to the lowest level since the last recession to that means we have a two track economy, and that is not promising. scarlet: karl, thank you very much. much more coming up on the bloomberg markets. creating a cleaner planet. withel bloomberg, along

bank of england governor mark carney, or forming a task force clearlycompanies disclose their climate change risk. and we will speak to one critic of the central bank's decision to extend stimulus measures. member, ofr ecb cyprus, will be joining me later on to discuss whether mario draghi missed the mark. ♪
12:14 pm
12:15 pm
torlet: welcome back bloomberg markets. more than 180 companies are gathered in paris, at least representatives of those countries, for the cup 21
12:16 pm
climate change forum. in a panel alongside mike bloomberg, mark carney, the bank discuss theovernor creation of a disclosure task or's that would gather information on companies behaviors to help understand and mitigate their climate related risk. mark carney explained why the task force is so critical. this ideally will be the one-stop shop for the right principles around climate, so that there can be a true market in transition toward a low carbon economy. there was a wide range of views amongst investors and providers of capital about the urgency of the issue, about the right technologies to back, about what companies are doing better, less don't have the information to express those views. scarlet: as you can see, john nichols moderated that conversation.
12:17 pm
he is joined right now by tom keene in paris. scarlet, thank you. john, congratulations on what is always an important announcement. what i found so great about it, and it goes to the game theory of the corporate world, and that is the idea of embarrassing people into action. carney says that mike bloomberg will be doing a voluntary program, but then there is this thing -- should we do it, they are not doing it. all of a sudden, you have momentum toward climate change. all about numbers. the ability to look at companies and say this is what this person is doing, let's compare to someone else. saying the owner has a good idea, but really it was carney who began this. the particular push on transparency, trying to remain as neutral as possible, the idea behind this task force is not to
12:18 pm
say lets in this particular group of people. it is to say, here is the information, you as investors can make the choice. this is a continual element of risk. if you have the measurement and the action to do it, there is a construction game theory of everybody gets on board. john: i think the game very analogy is rather a good one. if you have numbers -- think about it. every morning you come in and you want to see what things are. things to do with climate change in companies, there is more hot air then there is arguably in the atmosphere. companies are always saying that we have made ourselves carbon neutral, but we have left out 20 things. maybe a basic standard were people in the same industry can look at each other. this is useful, regardless of whether you are positive or negative on this. tom: let's have a fifth revolution, which is, within the
12:19 pm
media coverage of global warming, climate change, where are we now, and is there a renewed momentum in coverage? wonderful way to hide my book, which is a wonderful thing. but there is some element of this. is changing. ngos and outsiders are coming up with ways to get ahead. you look at the debate in america. the people that are not having any kind of sensible debate on the environment tends to be the politicians. companies have to deal with this. you have a problem to do with climate change in a particular area. you have a problem to do with what is happening with your employees wanting things. you have to react. if you could numbers to that from an investment point of view, it is worth something. carney is not saying that this will be sending that will be immediate risk, at least while he is governor of the bank of england. but this could be a sizable financial thing like people like you and i will write and talk
12:20 pm
about. women were more interested in my interview with robert redford than they were with you. idea was the gentleman from the university of manchester, kevin anderson, who is expert in global warming. the sites that was here surprised me. i expected more block, blah, blah, and i got more applied science. john: the science is getting more solid. it is one of those subjects with people who have been saying that there has been climate change have sometimes i'm a stupidly, exaggerated a bit. they were basically right, but they went too far. that gave the skeptics a chance to come in. the vast preponderance of numbers show that climate change is happening, and it is man-made. the question is how bad it is, what can we do about it, can we stop it to getting to two degrees? butlieve that is unlikely, at least we can make it less serious.
12:21 pm
tom: kevin anderson working on a track e.on two degrees. i don't have an opinion on it other than saying, the smartest guys on the block are saying two degrees. john: governments are saying maybe we are not going to kid ourselves about this. or maybe the corporations are saying, this is going to happen, we have to deal with it. the idea of having a task force to have some numbers that investors can deal with is a good idea. i don't know if it will work, but you and i will be rude about it if it doesn't. the important announcement today by governor carney of the bank of england on a new program whatasure and adjust corporations do with their energy consumption. scarlet: tom keene in paris, thank you. as tom mentioned, you want to watch the full interview from the conference right here on bloomberg tonight, changing climate, changing business.

12:25 pm
you can see this big spike up. for a while, the dollar was down against the euro. at oneimbed up to 1.0957 point, so a pretty insane move. now we have more dollar strength now that we have the divergence of monetary policy. take a look at some individual movers. the maker of chips for cameras, notably gopro. they came on a disappointing outlook for revenue and profit. as a result, the stock is down right now 3%. also, gopro stock is falling on the issue. a number of analysts coming out ella's problems highlight gopro's problems. tesla's down as well after recalling about 7000 vehicles or seatbelt issues.

scarlet: thank you so much, matt miller. again, more headlines coming out from mario draghi at the economic club of new york. he says the risk of deflation in the euro area is firmly off the table and that the central bank would need to push back inflation targets with no action. he also adds inflation would have been negative had he not acted and the measures are gradually feeding through into inflation. again, mario draghi speaking at the economic club of new york, a day after underwhelming investors with the latest stimulus expansion, in terms of duration, not so much the size of monthly purchases. we will continue to keep an eye on those headlines in new york. ♪

12:33 pm
what is happening at the next meeting. he is keeping his powder dry and had said there are options ecb can take. what is it do for the ecb in january after the fed liftoff? >> i do not expect anything at the next meeting. i would hope they would reevaluate their stance at the march meeting, that would give us fresh projections. one of the disappointments yesterday, and this is also from the september meeting, that in september and yesterday the ecb revised works for inflation. thatre forecasting inflation will be below the mandate that is why it is expected they could do more. us ifime, they can give

the inflation will be in march. i hope they will do in march with a did not do yesterday. lots say that if mario draghi had delivered on a stimulus we would have seen a dramatic strength winning of the dollar. janet yellen does not want to strengthening of the dollar. you think the fed and ecb are coordinating? anthanasios: i do not think there is any coordinating. dispute that the effect on the exchange rate would be as large as some think. i would agree with the hadction, but if the ecb delivered on policy as they should have been doing, which is more than they have in doing, that would have strengthened the strengthenedhe economy would be a stronger, not weaker, euro. there would be some downward

pressure, but with a stronger economy you would have more credibility. scarlet: that would balance it out a little. let's switch to the jobs report. bill gross said the fed is poised to raise rates even though all conditions have not been that. set to go, and it is something i've been encouraging. not because of the tightness of the labor market or the fact that wages are increasing. we are up .2%. it .3% relative to .5? scarlet: he says there's no pressure from the standpoint of wages? do agree that the fed has not met its objective? anthanasios: i do not agree. number one, the mandate of the federal reserve is price stability and maximum employment . the mandate of the federal
12:36 pm
reserve says nothing about wages. i know we all wish wages were higher, but it isn't something the fed can deliver. employment is back to normal. in my sense, the employment has been back to normal for some time. the fact that monetary policy operates with a lag, in my view the fed should have already started the process of normalization earlier. it is good they will go in december. i think they will need to do more than they suggest right now, what is reflected in markets. let me point out, this is because the feds beat qe effectively early on. it is a benefit of the fact that the federal reserve ease monetary policy quite a bit ago, years ago, two years four years ago, unlike the ecb. at thee ecb eased policy
12:37 pm
same time, they would not have to be considering easing. scarlet: the fed may have been dot when it began quantitative easing, yet the fed may be behind the curve now. will it be the biggest challenge in managing normalization? anthanasios: the question is if the fed will be able to deliver a gradual pacet like they want to do. i think it will be going very quickly. by waiting so long the employment -- the unemployment rate has been going down so fast, the chances are high they will have an over economy next year that will force them to act faster than they wish. brinkley, i see -- frankly, i see markets next year. scarlet: thank you. with the m.i.t. sloan school of financial management.

1:06 pm
getrnor, asking did you what you were expecting and did you make a mistake? well --aid no, o explainnt on t they do not make policy for the markets today do what is best for the european markets and the eurozone. they had asked all of the economists of the central banks to put together the recommendations for policy. but was put together in a package and voted on by the governing council approved by a large majority. he said there was some dissent, but there is always defend. there was no real push back. this is what the governing a mosts felt was important thing, the best package at this point. he stressed that qe is here to stay and we can recalibrate if
1:07 pm
necessary. but there was no conspiracy, there was no big push back. go as far as the vice president is that it is the markets you got this wrong. they do noted that anticipate bad reaction because we are doing the right thing. thelet: and we can retain flexibility to do more if needed. and one other thing he said was and grace can create a cyclical structure. that was the onus on europe and the elites to come up with fiscal solutions. mike: this has been going on for some time. also not just mario draghi janet yellen and ben bernanke. the fiscal authorities have done nothing over the past two years. they've taken away from growth with austerity programs. mario draghi says he needs help if we are going to get additional growth. yesterday his predecessor at the ecb says he think that my starting to be happen -- that might start to happen. scarlet: as mike was explaining,
1:08 pm
mario draghi saying that the ecb does make policy for the euro zone. do you think that the fed makes policy for the market? the fed makesthat policy for the market, but i think that the ecb makes policy for the eurozone. it was just yesterday that mario that heas saying thought qe was a tremendous 66 as because it drove interest rates down. -- success because it drove interest rates down. yesterday he was making policy for the markets, but i guess today you are not. the fed does the same thing for the same reason. they measure their success i whether or not the markets behave in the way they want them to behave. qe is always about a market manipulation degrees in wealth effect or stimulus of lower interest rates. scarlet: let's back up a little bit and talk about the impact of the jobs report brady's they left off on december 16 is a done deal at this point. the focus that is on the past. th.
1:09 pm
that thelen has said path will be gradual. is that what the market is in?ing and -- gradual path.n a fed will be gradual and we anticipate four rate hikes next year. that is the consensus thinking 1.5 will have a 1.25% to percent interest rate increase. but the market will go up half that rate. if a consensus of economists is correct and we get a rate hike in december and four rate hikes over the eight meetings in 2000 team, i do not think that sits well with the market at all. you can see dramatically higher interest rates and it will .other things the equity market this will bother the economy. you'll probably see a dramatically flat yield curve which is what the fed does not
1:10 pm
want because that signals recession or makes lending more difficult. scarlet: you can see the 210 spread. if it is flattening, it changed a lot yesterday. it went to 133 basis points from about 123 just two days ago. a problem inhave determining is that a lot of money from your comes into the united because they cannot get it yields there. maybe they are wrong and we will not have 70 interest-rate increases because we had some flattening. but what happened over the last couple of weeks as we are starting to see economists say that the fed might be right and that the inflation likely rising faster because we are getting more weight gain and we are seeing what appears to be a bottom in oil prices. >> here is the issue with that. we have not had a rate hike
1:11 pm
since before the crisis. if we go back to pre-crisis, what does it do? it trades one percentage point above the funds rate. that could get to two percentage points above if you have inflation or if you are he and inflation. so if it is going to move to 1% or 1.25% or 1.5% you can see the and the 10-year note at the same level. the dramatically flatter curve in one year. jeff celtic moves in interest rates especially if we and he get - rebound in inflation. scarlet: we are looking at an activity market that is rallying. -- equity market that is rallying. what do you make of this? level thate highest

the wealth of , and over half invest in private equity as well. in light of new to the limits on that front. let's check in with carol massar with the details. so much.ank you welcome on bloomberg tv this is the bloomberg advantage on bloomberg radio. joining me now is peggy collins, covering personal-finance at bloomberg news. family offices, we have seen a growth of these types of offices. them andrious about what they do. i'm also curious about the ceos who run these firms. what do they make? >> it is interesting because these family offices from the wealth of families with a lot of money. we are talking about 500 million dollars or more. many of them in the billions. they have their own staff to essentially run their family daily and financial affairs. but they tend to be very private. so as of until now we have not
1:22 pm
learned that much about what they pay people and their compensation packages. the fidelity did a survey earlier this week where the median salary or a ceo at one of these firms if they are managing a billionaire's money is about $830,000. that is a pretty hefty salary. carol: that is hefty, but a little bit of perspective. we talk about fairies individuals on wall street are managing big funds for investor firms. they can earns millions and millions of dollars an. so is the slow play in comparison -- is this low pay in comparison? >> the ceo maybe managing assets in different countries at a family office is maybe serving an average of 20 family members. doing family travel, security is becoming a bigger issue, trust for the family.
1:23 pm
and oftentimes there is callhing that they pay, managing family disputes or all the cousins to agree on an investment or way to move forward. and one of -- and a lot of the ceos will be playing multiple roles. carol: but there is a lot of competition for talent to run family offices, endowments and universities, manage financial firms. there is more competition for those who are running family offices, isn't there? >> absolutely. but as we see around the world, it has gotten increasingly competitive to hire the top talent to run your family's wealth or if they want people they can trust and also people who are very smart on
1:24 pm
investments because these families want the money to last not only for their children, but for their grandchildren, and their great-grandchildren. and in order to do that you need to be successful in terms of wealth preservation and family governance. the fidelity survey said 830 thousand dollars for ceos of the largest single-family offices out there. that includes our voters, learn turn compensation, but you talk about how to convert to ceos of some of the largest companies that are out there and some of the highest paid executives. it pales in comparison to what they get paid. >> absolutely. if you look at the bloomberg pay index for ceos they are making it to the millions, the top ceos of the top companies at the u.s., in salary alone. not to mention their retirement packages, their pension, stock awards. but we are seeing some sophisticated compensation packages as talent and competition for talent is increasing.
1:25 pm
increasing equity deals, long-term compensation, 401(k) type packages. there are some sense this cicada -- some sophisticated packages out there to attract those out of a corporation or another family office. carol: what is the experience? is it the same experience they want at a university to manage an endowment? >> intends to be a little bit different. they are looking at top investment professionals if they are running investments in house. it tends to be a lot of the accountant who were running the family offices and they're thinking about the whole picture in terms of trust but also tax efficiency and how to move assets from one generation to the next. carol: and they also get a percentage of the family business sometimes. >> that is rare. we are seeing that not too many families are giving the actual stop in their family-owned business or letting people use their private aircraft. not all the perks of being in the family of health. carol: but occasionally it happens to .
