that happening? david: all of that next on "bloomberg best." ♪ david: hello, i am david gura. welcome to "bloomberg best." a weekly look at bloomberg elevation and analysis from around the world. let's start with a day by day review of the top headlines. on monday, the markets started like the week before, with a big selloff. stephanie: an unbelievable day. at one point, you had the nasdaq off by 3%. but into the close, stocks made -- contributed to a rally. the s&p only off 26 points. the dow only up 177 points. >> and ugly day, but it could have been worse.

>> what you attribute the selloff to, what is going on? >> there is more anxiety about the financial sector. even a few weeks ago, it is a relatively new development. the focus is mainly on european banks, but a few things have been driving markets lower. last week, most of the economic data, even the u.s., was on the soft side. it is reinforcing concerns about the health of the global economy, even the health of the u.s. economy. second, we have had an environment for the past few weeks where you have seen more effort by some of the world's central banks in japan and europe to either consider or adopt more unconventional monetary policy. and so far, that is not having the intended effect. it is making investors nervous about what happens in a world where central banks may be out of bullets. >> we have been looking for the bond bubble to burst for years. it seems like the bond bears can

go home right now, because it is exactly that it -- exfo what is that it is exactly what is keeping the bonds up. -- it is exactly what is keeping the bonds up. >> it defies everything we learned in school. you have close to half the european sovereign bond markets with negative yields. that wasn't supposed to happen. you were supposed to have to pay the government for the privilege of lending to them. so instead of going up, they have plunged into areas we do not think was possible. >> deutsche bank slumped yesterday, after being the biggest lenders to reassure investors it has enough cash. >> a report yesterday raising the specter of deutsche bank's ability to pay. this is a huge torch paper. >> simon adamson wrote this report, questioning deutsche bank's ability to pay their coupon in 2017. if their profitability comes in lower than expected, or if there are further litigation costs. this is a big cloud, when we talk about deutsche bank. we don't know where they are going to be in long-term litigation costs. what that will do to the profitability.

yesterday, they put out a statement saying, yes, they do have enough capital to cover. what they say is, they have enough to cover 350 million coupons due in april. this is if the sale goes through with what could be a bank. and that there are not any litigation costs. this isn't just a deutsche bank story though. you take a look at lenders in the stoxx 600. you see in 2012 -- that is when mario draghi said, he would save the euro. look at how far they have gone down. quite a precipitous decline. there appeared to be two stories. one is a sort of concern about deutsche bank and our own ability. but then there is a broader concern about the bank stocks in general. but it looks like deutsche bank is taking the brunt of that. >> so the question of negative

interest rates came up today during janet yellen's testimony. >> she was not sure if they would be legal in the united states, but she seemed open to the idea. >> in the spirit of prudent planning, it is something that, in light of european experience, we will look at. we should look at. not because we think there is any reason to use it, but to know what could potentially be available. >> first of all, it's interesting that she, like sam fisher, came out and said, based on the european experience -- it makes me wonder if they think it has been successful. if so, what are they looking at to gauge the negative rate experience? >> or if it didn't mess it up. it did not harm it anyway,

compared to actually messing it up? later on, she did allude to u.s. money market funds. she said, they have to study whether the potential advent of negative yields in the u.s. would disrupt the plumbing of the u.s. financial system. in particular, money market funds. you are already seeing in japan some money market funds closing down to new investors, because it doesn't work. this model doesn't work. and europe does not rely on money market funds as much as the u.s. does. this could disrupt the paper funding system. this could disrupt companies funding themselves. she did allude to it. she said, it would be remiss for them not to look at it more closely. >> you've just been listening to fed chair janet yellen. what is the message you heard from today's testimony? >> i think again, negative rates, very back-and-forth on the legality of it, but whether she was prepared to use it. take a listen.

>> we had previously considered them, and decided that they would not work well to foster accommodation back in 2010. in light of the experience of european countries and others that have gone to negative rates, we are taking a look at them again, because we would want to be paired in the event that we needed to add accommodation. >> the mere fact that she is saying -- again, confirming this is a tool we are considering. it may be something we are going to use. it doesn't mean we are going to use it. but, we had this act out. -- axe out. we are sharpening it, and it's a signal to the markets. >> a little bit of theater, psychotherapy, a lot of politics, and very little information. i would disagree with one of brendan's characterizations. she was asked about the axe of negative interest rates. it doesn't mean that they are sharpening it. >> it is a fourth successive day of declines here in europe. >> the pressure is building up in japan. it all comes ahead of gross data out on monday.

>> does this mean we can expect more stimulus from the boj? >> i think that is the question we are all asking ourselves right now. governor kuroda was in parliament all morning, talking about how he is ready to employ more stimulus. if it is necessary, that he will not hesitate. i think those are pretty strong comments. i think more action is definitely possible. there are some economists already forecasting that we will get more in march. >> look at japan. my goodness, it is like the boj has completely lost control. >> i think central banks have generally lost a lot. in reality, people put their money in the mattress. they take it out of the banking system. it doesn't make them go out and

spend. especially, in japan, where you have an aging segment that relies on pensions. it is kind of for the economic theory breaks down with the practical reality. david: we will have more on deutsche bank a little later, how it rallied from tuesday's plunge, and how it got the whole world talking about cocos. then company news from tech to media to beer. ♪

♪ david: welcome back to "bloomberg best."

i am david gura. let's continue our weekly review with some business activity. >> sunda patch i is getting a big payday, very big. he is poised to become one of the highest-paid chief executives after the parent company offered him restricted stock. >> that is an awfully large, restricted stock grant. any upside was really something shareholders would be happy to give him, given the performance up to that point. but google right now is just firing on all cylinders, and i think that he has come in and done a terrific job taking over the core property. so i'm not surprised they want to reward him. i think it is testimony to just how successful google thinks it is right now and how critical he is seen to be in the company. >> for google, these are payout firms through 2019. and their ultimate value will be the stock rice. but the number he is getting is the number he is getting. if you allowed him to invest all of these today and he has a few options, and the company, they would be worth 650 million. obviously, we are in a down market so he is getting close. he could definitely get there pretty quickly. >> stock is tumbling by worse than a year. the japanese government bidding for a rescue plan is pitching the creation of smart appliances that include another troubled electronics major. >> we have taiwan's foxconn and we have innovation network core of japan.

the bid is pretty complex. they are looking to inject some capital to boost the led business. this is the business that makes glass panels for iphones and other mobile devices. they are also pitching this idea of a smart home appliance giant. foxconn is offering a package that is worth about ¥660 billion. some of that would go into sharp in the form of buying new shares, about ¥225 billion would be used to acquire preferred shares. on the other side, ha is

offering ¥203 billion to uphold these operations in the future. both companies want to change the operations pretty fundamentally to make sharp more competitive. it has been losing money for years. >> my question to you is this -- profit will increase in 2015 -- 2016 with an increasingly external environment. looking at the macro picture at the moment. where are your sales and profits going to rise in 2016 and by how

much? >> we have a very diversified portfolio of countries and brands, which allow us to spread the risk. on the one hand, you will have headwinds, but on the other hand, you have oil consuming countries like vietnam that will benefit from low oil prices. so, overall, our balance and our portfolio footprint leaves us to make that confident statement, while admitting that there will be some headwinds. >> where does that leave europe then? is this an opportunity to get more out of the european business? >> oil prices do not translate one-on-one to beer consumption. it would be fullest to make that case. it certainly will bring some additional discretionary purchasing power to people, which beer is a small part of it and we want to play our part. so, no, overall, i think europe can benefit from lower oil prices in the you succumb. best in the years to come.

>> philippe dimona made a pledge to prove doubters wrong and bring floundering stock to a new high. he's been with the company for a while. what does he have planned? >> this is probably getting back to a six for viacom. it comes to programming and ratings. it is a challenge for this company. this is a company that has some real ratings weakness. the company is reinvested in their programming. a lot of new shows. the ratings have started to turn. let's see if that is a long-term trend. if it is, which they believe it is, they believe that they will start to see real improvements in the cable networks by the end of next year. unfortunately, investors are hoping to see the turn a little

bit sooner. >> disney reported earnings after the bell yesterday, beating all the estimates. >> really the best corner does -- quarter that disney has ever recorded, on every front. you look at profits of $2.9 billion. that double the massive profits from three years ago. a fantastic quarter driven by star wars. merchandising activity at the beginning of star wars. but really a spectacular quarter. and yet, concerned that there is a slowdown at espn, and subscribers adapting to a new world of cord cutting. >> i saw bob iger went out of his way to say there is an uptick in subscribers. but it did not make the market

feel any better. >> there is concern that it will not last. more bundled packages -- we certainly have not seen that behavior in the marketplace. >> looking at 2016, we have seen a fairly rapid drop in commodity prices. it is not just add materials. it is also oil and gas and a range of products. we are on the front foot. we are taking proactive and prudent action to reduce our costs and to reduce our dividend policy. this is a sensible step we are taking here to protect long-term value to shareholders. >> what does this tell us about your m&a thoughts. the belief that you are getting ready for those 21 assets to become available? >> we are trying to get the balance right between shareholder returns. there is a range of assets that could be more natural than some others. at this stage, there is out -- there is nothing out there on the market that interests us.

but we are holding our powder dry, while we focus on developing our own assets. >> twitter reporting a loss of $90.2 million in the fourth quarter. twitter's user growth stagnated last quarter. jack dorsey is still struggling to make this site more alluring to consumers and advertisers alike. >> the company so far has kind of been able to get around this stagnation because this is at the first quarter that growth has find out. twitter has trailed facebook at, but has been able to tweak up quarter after quarter. that has massed the declining users. that's all a shell game. until you reach energized user

growth, you're stuck. cory: aig posted is second straight quarter loss yesterday. they announced a $5 billion share buyback. this is not great news. >> it was a really bad loss. people were accounting for some of the trouble at aig, but this was worse than our most -- than analysts estimates. a lot of people knew hedge fun performance had been bad at aig. and i guess activists came in at the right time. >> so they put a couple of activists on their board. >> right. they put john on the board, surprising.d of

he is on the board of navistar. he's been through this before. ♪

♪ david: you are watching "bloomberg best." i am david gura. earlier this week, doubts around europe's largest investment bank. deutsche bank's stock fell sharply. it all began with cocoas. >> the co-ceo tried to calm employees saying, "deutsche bank remains absolutely rocksolid given our strong capital and position." >> fears yesterday were triggered by a note from credit sites that question deutsche bank's ability to pay off coco bonds.

this is a type of debt that, if things go badly, the bank converts into shares. but there's nothing significantly different. this is a fear that the markets brought up front yesterday. >> it is quite amusing and away. -- in a way. they converted into equity is the ratio falls. it is sitting at 11% at the moment. i think this was more about cash in the bank actually running into initial difficulties. that is why they got that vote out last night, to call investigate -- investors. >> i think some of the european banks have been slow in getting their recapitalized and getting their financial balance sheet in the best place they could be. europeank some of the banks have been slow.

>> i think deutsche bank is pretty sound, actually. at the end of the day, it is a german national icon. i think john is doing all the right things. >> we don't have a rating on deutsche bank. my guess is they shall are -- the shareholders there based some kind of dilution in the capital structure. >> we have seen differentiation in europe. >> ubs is only at 86 basis points. it is important that the banks are still that's the markets are still differentiating between the banks. >> i think we are in a situation where we have a much better handle of the balance sheet. but that doesn't stop people from having that fear factor. >> i do not have concerns about the bank. >> one bank, one institution raising that level of concern that you get the german finance minister to weigh in, to shore up confidence. i haven't seen this since some bankers told me they were solvent in 2007-2008. >> we have the latest on deutsche bank. a public vote of confidence in

deutsche bank. it also gives you a sense about how little confidence there is out there in the market. but we have is a potential plan to buy back some senior debt. the bank has ample cash to make such a purchase. earlier, the financial times reported on tuesday they could potentially be buying some senior debt, buying back senior debt. this crucially would not include those convertible bonds that have been the center of the story the last 48 hours. >> you and i have seen this train wreck before. we have seen this theater. it is one part international finance trust liquidity, one part the corporate plan and one part the over arching macro economics the deutsche bank has to deal with, which is the most important?

>> i think it is the macro issues. people are clearly scared about the banking system. they are not seeing much growth in europe. all of these banks in europe have been overly aggressive in the past. so, he needs to dial that back. he needs to talk about what they are doing, buying in bonds. it makes a lot of sense when they are buying at that price. i think it is an overreaction. this is deutsche bank. this is the bank of germany. this is the long-term game. we are reacting to traders. who can take advantage of volatility. the real question is, on a long path, is deutsche bank a bank that will fix their problems? get confidence back in their shares? and, my belief is yes. >> let's look at the soap opera known as deutsche bank. it is a five-day intraday chart

showing all the back and forth. what i want to know, folks, is the german view. how has the story adapted and morphed in the last few days? >> it has gone up and down come up and down. and it is all of about say whether deutsche bank has the money to pay's coupons. whether or not it is triggered is on an up secure provision on how you define a certain accounting metric. it is done under german commercial law, not international standards. and investors are trying to figure out whether or not deutsche bank and ask a pay -- can actually pay them. the big question here is does the european central banks try to weigh in and clarify on these new rules? theyave 169 banks that

supervise. will the ecb tried to calm the market. are they going back-and-forth with deutsche bank on how they can maybe offer a little more clarity? >> we have confirmation on the story that bloomberg news reported yesterday. deutsche bank is indeed going to buy back some of its debt. it looks about like 3 billion euros or $2 million. >> that's right. ending a quite crazy roller coaster week, this is a five-day chart. we started the week with concerns that deutsche would not be able to pay the coupons on its riskiest debt. deutsche coming out saying, of course it would be able. then there were rumors that it would buy back debt shares. today shares were rising ahead of this news. since the news half an hour ago, shares have shot up. interestingly, over the week, shares are actually down by 1%. it's been a quite incredible volatile week. they fell 9% monday. 4% on tuesday. they rose 10% on thursday.

they are up over 10% now. david, it is volatile. david: what do you make of the move? >> the market is responding well. it makes a lot of sense. their debt has been crushed in recent weeks. they can buy the debt back less than they issued it. that makes a lot of sense. it sends a signal to the market that we have the cash on hand. we are not worried about being able to pay our bills. the potential downside here is that the deutsche bank is taking some of their flexibility. they are doing liquidity and cash to pay their bills. they're doing it to protect themselves. >> best of the week's interviews. interest rates and bold predictions on the price of oil. ♪

david: welcome back. volatile markets make for a spirited conversation. our week starts with a bold prediction about one of the leading independent traders. we spoke exclusively with my colleague ryan. >> we have the situation where we have too much supply. the balance does not look like it is tightening up. we're still seeing bills in the u.s. i cannot say that the price has bottomed out. ryan: hopefully we do not have to put that price on it. >> the end price would be 48. you can kill me if i am wrong. brian: you do not see a sharp rebound? >> no, we do not because there is so much stock buildup in the world. i think we just believe that it will take a lot of time to work on that. we believe it will happen over time. nobody is going to wake up and see that there is no more oil. >> how long does it take to work through this? >> do you ever get back to that level? >> there is so much more supply. it is going down in cars as it is in airplanes.

you have to believe that there is a possibility. >> the point is that this is a turnaround. a turnaround of the dynamics that have been growing for eight years. and given real growth, and given more inflation that is beyond our control, we will see dynamics of debt accelerating downwards. >> just on this level, some people look at the amount >> i think it is important because what is important about sustainability is a direction that is taking. also, the absolute level story, let me add what i expect to be

the reassessment of 2015. d.c. deflation as the biggest risk to the losing economy? inflation will go as quickly as possible. we're very far from there. the ecb is doing a great job. my view is that we should continue to do so. on the side of countries, we should do the best to facilitate transition to the economy. >> when you take a look at the investment climate, what is your assessment? now, we have this talk about everything. it does not look optimistic. >> that is true. we have fallen somewhere behind what we should. we have the investment climate. the important thing is that as of last year, we do not make the effort to admit it. greg's what matters about the sustainability is the level. numbers arehose what i expect the numbers to be from the privatization in 2016. deflation,ed about do see it as the biggest risk?

euroll, inflation in the has to as quickly as possible before it is considered the equivalent value, which is 2%. we are very far from there. on the side of the countries, we should do our best to facilitate the transmission of qe towards the economy, which includes dealing with the banking system. thehen you take a look at investment climate, what is sure -- what is sure take? look optimistic. >> we have fallen behind where we should be with respect to the regulatory regime and investment climate. thatthe important thing is had made ayear, we

big effort to admit it. to admit the problems and take responsibility because we want to change some. that is the first step. to be responsible about the reforms. we do not want to overreact to individual. -- negative interest rates seemed to be the solution to shore. in countries where we have negative interest, which is it due to the global economy? >> the honest truth is, and nobody does. experiments are experiments. no historical precedent. the answers we do not know. of this, themple

general idea is if you charge negative interest rates on the reserves the central axle, that somehow this will translate into lower interest rates. but you've got to remember these negative rates and reserves are squeezing the bank profits. this is something we actually do not in the circumstances. we want them to make more so they can build up the capital offers. what a banks going to do? one possibility is lower the rates for customers. the other alternative is you raise the rates you charge for people to borrow, which is the absolute opposite of the purpose for which the policy was intended. this is all experimental. we will wait and see how it turns out. but i am rather skeptical. >> are you not worried about negative rates?

>> absolutely not. it has change the business model. you cannot benefit from a zero or negative interest rate. [indiscernible] you can learn much more money -- the costompare we will use insignificant ways. i see significant opportunities coming from these scenarios. [indiscernible]

>> given what global markets look like, are you worried about an interest slowdown? about the number of countries. i am not concerned about a slowdown at all. what we're seeing in the marketplaces thing sort themselves out. if anything breaks through and differentiates itself in a way that it has not historically, live premium sports content. things are going in terms of global or streaming, there is debate over whether public funding should happen. ago, thought a few years that people potentially would home.s -- prefer to stay

at the opposite has happened. these arenas have become modern-day town halls and people still, despite all the great digital media, want to gather and be with each other. how religious observation is going down, where people going?

david: you're watching "bloomberg best." i'm david gora. -- gura. we will back on the week and money in politics with president obama's final budget proposal. >> president obama officially releasing his $4 trillion budget plan for fiscal 2017.

give us the big numbers first. >> it is a $4 trillion budget. we do see some themes coming out. number one is how focused he is on climate change. he really wants this to be part of his legacy of his final year in the white house. this budget really takes a crack at trying to address climate change both on the policy side and the revenue side by imposing a $10 tax on oil. there's also a surprise in terms of the economic assumptions. the white house is assuming that the unemployment rate in the united states will not go below 5%. while we are at 4.9% now, that is a very interesting function. finally, there is an assumption of 2 trillion more dollars been raised over the next decade. that is a big number. it is something that is unlikely to be achieved. >> congress will not hold any hearings on that. is that unusual?

>> the republicans and both chambers announced that they will not be inviting the director to come to capitol hill and testing president's budget. that is very unusual. as you can imagine, democrats are very upset about it. >> they announced they will not the inviting shaun donovan to testify. that is very unusual. as you can imagine, democrats are very upset about it. >> a donald trump and bernie sanders have one the latest primaries. hillary clinton with strong came through the crowded field. there are several days before south carolina. we have 10 days before the republican primary. another seven after that. what, and terms of a ground game will need going on in regards to staffing changes and so forth? >> definitely staffing changes on hillary clinton side. she already said that ever loss to bernie sanders that she'll make changes. in terms of ground game, john kasich who was a second-place finisher, it is not really have a ground game. he does not have the money. it will be interesting to see

what happens to him. >> are we any wiser about who will win? >> the democratic primary will be a lot longer than people thought it would. bernie sanders victory was very stunning. he picked up a lot of young voters and women. older voters as well. that is going to be quite a dramatic shift. on the republican side, donald on the republican side, donald trump won really big. >> we have a final push to support some -- to push support for new eu. >> plenty people in london are paying a great deal of attention to this. >> they need to start reading a french newspaper. the french are leading the

opposition to this draft proposal hammered out a few weeks ago. david cameron celebrating this as a potential victory. it looks like it has a ways to go. depending on how firm you think the opposition is tells you whether i not you think something will get across the finish line. this february 18-19 summit in brussels. basically, the dispute on the bankside, will have another dispute in a second, is can the eu, and the eurozone have rules? because they are getting closer to integration. how quickly can they implement and effectuate those rules? united kingdom once a little more baton to me. it is a complicated situation. it basically gets back to who control the regulation, and how quickly can the regulation be put into effect. we still have the divide on that. eastern european countries are uncomfortable with the welfare payments. the scheme that tourist and

cameron sort of hashed out. it bears noting that he has a difficult proposal at home on the welfare scheme on what you pay for child benefits and children living outside of the u.k.. it is always hard to tell how firm the opposition is and how much they're willing to negotiate. it seems like they have shuttle diplomacy. they will travel all over the european union on monday and tuesday. there were two paris, berlin, and the product. i hope he gets frequent flyer miles for that. ♪

♪ david: it has been a worrisome week for markets.

take us behind those numbers. what is going on? >> i think actually the bears -- pawed by the markets right now. they will be mauled. the reason for that is that this is not just the end of a bull market. it is the end of an era. the end of a worldwide era in which central banks trade money, inject liquidity, and support markets and manipulate an intruder in the pricing of financial assets like never before. what it did was create a massive credit expense in the world. we have 40 trillion of debt in the world in 1995. we of 224 trillion today. every place has peaked debt. second, the central banks are all out of power. the fed is painted into a corner.

powder. dried powder. the fed is painted into a corner. we are here market say no interest rate increase in the coming year. that is 100 months at zero money market cost. you will destroy a financial system on eight years of zero money. >> we have had person after person after person come in with a different picture. saying the chances of recession are very limited. in fact yesterday, goldman came in and said there is a 25% chance or less of recession. what do you see that they do not? >> out of the last seven recessions, wall street and goldman in particular has predicted none of them. >> i do not think we are going to a recession at all. we can talk ourselves into it. people can, to some extent, their behavior is driven by what they hear. fear is dominating this market. this market is quite irrational. the market does not have a mind. you cannot associate it with the what you and i might think. it is a collective reaction.

>> the market is seeing something that the market is missing, or it is concerned for the sake of being concerned. >> there are all sorts of things to be concerned about. we can be about -- concerned or an asteroidid hitting the united states. serious, the china impact is not to be ignored. oil is a source of our economy. there is a lack of capital reinvestment in that sector. so, i think that realistically there is a lot to be concerned about. we've had dismal economic growth. the standards for performance are pretty low!

>> oil is hovering at the $28 level. as it goes lower, will it still have as much of an impact? >> oil is a wildcard. economics 101 says lower oil prices should begin for the economy. we've not seen that. that is why we have anxiety. the pain of oil is evident. the evidence has not yet been realized. i am not to an oil expert. if there is a bottom, i think sam fisher from new york said, zero is the bottom. >> we cannot go negative. yes, i think that's when we defined the bottom, my gut tells me that we must be close to it. i think it will be a positive. supplytarting to get cuts back. as i said, the benefits for oil

should begin to dissolve. we haven't seen them yet. the positive story has yet to play out. >> is markets become too relied on central banks, we were told that bankers basically run on ammunition, we must turn right or left. what is the one biggest tournament -- determinant if we turn right or wrong? >> that is if we can turn towards a more conference a policy response. if we get that come you can unlock a lot of cash sitting on the sidelines. you can really tip into a better equilibrium. if we do not get it, if it is no longer at slow growth, it is about recession and finance show crisis. >> hold on. recession and financial crisis is what we have to get through. six months from now, 10 months ago, some say we are in recession mode. where do you say we are? >> i think we are in and the era of very slow growth.

>> i think that in many respects, we have a liquidity crisis going on. part of the volatility that we have in these markets, i think is really a lack of liquidity. a small amount of buying or selling in any market today has a dramatic impact on prices. and, when i step back and look at these moves, every day, whatever market you look at, we have unprecedented moves. just if you look at the s&p or the dow, since january 1, we have not had this much of prices at day in and day out. up a hundred down a hundred, of 100 down 300. you have to ask yourself why does that happen? we have gone through economic cycles, we have gone through from growth to less growth of growth. we have gone through cycles were we have had unclear monetary

system policy. the issue for me is, we have never gone through one of these inflection points where we have no week liquidity in the market. -- no liquidity in the market. -- issue for me points david: that we will pick up the conversation next week. that will do it for bloomberg best. you can find the latest news around the world from bloomberg.com. i am david gura, thank you for watching a bloomberg television. ♪
