mark: welcome to bloomberg markets on bloomberg television. betty: we will take you from new york to london to brazil in the next hour. here is what we're watching. print --pec's bigger biggest producers of the weekend, threatening to run new the routing oil prices, snapping back from earlier losses, still down almost 2%. mark: hanging by a thread, that is how supporters are of theizing the future presidency in brazil after a lower house of congress voted in favor of her impeachment. 10 she do anything to stave off her roster? betty: deadline day. the company bidding for yahoos assets are starting to narrow, leading to google as the top
10:01 am
contender. one thing that seems more likely is burress a myers day at the helm. it may be numbers. i want to head to the markets julie is. julie: a number having to do with oil that we are not seeing more of a decline in oil, not seeing more of a decline in the talks paired a mixed picture of the u.s. average as the dow is trading higher. considering the close correlation between oil and stocks, it is indeed surprising. take a look here. groups are on the move. energy is not the worst-performing group. we have got consumer discretionary, which looks like more of a mixed picture when you
10:02 am
break it down by group. i want to look at a two-day chart. down today and oil prices. we have climbed back from the lows of the session in reaction to the talks. one thing that is definitely helping to mitigate or cushion the decline is what it's going on in kuwait. a strike there is reducing output by 60%. you obviously have supply constraints and that is helping is goingt under what on with oil prices today. i want to also take a longer-term perspective. this is oil year to date with various points on it from what we have seen from the talks are the 12 year low in oil prices that we reached back in january. helping to spur the rally on. decline in oil,
10:03 am
but look at how far oil prices have climbed from the low. that we still some talk are maybe seeing a stalling from of, but there are a number analysts coming in today and young within oil stocks, actually want to come in and do some buying selectively on the pullback we're seeing in prices. oil, the other major market event to watch us what happened over the weekend in brazil. julie: and here, perhaps the reaction is a little surprising. seeing brazilian stocks rally and that is not the case today. here is the u.s. dollar going up . one thing going on is the brazilian central bank is stepping up its efforts to weaken the currency. there is the view that even s -- even if it does get impeached, the next person who takes over still has significant challenge
10:04 am
in improving the brazilian economy. if you look at the stock market, lower today but it has rallied 41% since its low in late january and that also puts the move in context. mark: 1.4% lower at the start. of the pile bottom that earlier, the gas index was 4% lower. is some comeback for the main stoxx 600, and it of course rose last week for the first week in five. it has not risen to that magnitude of last wii's gains in over two months. this is the stoxx 600 versus valuation or the stock hundred. it is trading on 18 point seven times estimated earnings. i have chosen this chart because basically it is trading at above the average
10:05 am
multiple for the last five years. some might say the stoxx 600 is thoseexpensive despite classroom weeks of to climb before last week's gains. coming back to the oil and gas industry, i thought we would look at the constituents of the stoxx 600 oil and gas index since they hit the 30 year low on january 20. as you can see, as an index it .s up by 19% every single company on the gas index has risen since that 13 year low in january led by oil, up 77%. as we are talking about all of as oil, i a little bit treat for you, a technical analysis showing us where the oil and gas index is relative to the 200 day moving average.
10:06 am
the gas and oil index fell below the 200 day moving average on friday. the last time it fell below the 200 day moving average was in july. a 30%n embarked on decline through january on the relative strength index. the oil and gas index -- what is better than a bit on a monday? betty: for you, nothing. vonnie quinn has more from the newsroom. in a door, the government says at least 350 people were killed and more than 2500 injured. about 100 miles from ecuador's capital. many people were trapped in buildings. the u.s. delivered water and other emergency supplies.

10:08 am
plunging between the world's biggest crude producers without any agreements on freezing outputs. refusing to put any limits without the commitment from iran. elliott.ned by a simple question. what went wrong? elliott. with perhapse lower levels of -- expectations that things can be achieved. we got word on saturday night there was a draft agreement. the venezuelans, the very country that push that the meetings take place here all on board. without naming them, change their position just before the summit was to begin on sunday morning. i was told this morning that was indeed saudi arabia.
10:09 am
the russian oil minister said in his words, hot discussions. he refused to pin the blame on the pegida was not here, iran. >> i think we have not reached the expectations we had when we prepared the meeting. how can a country that did not participate in the meeting be the reason we did not reach an agreement? iran did not participate in the discussions. this is the position of saudi arabia. they think all members should participate in this. >> even if there has been a deal, they have done nothing to get away from the 1.5 million barrels per day of oil that there is on the market versus demand. imagine thean only volatility will increase because of this. what about, as the russian energy minister was discussing,
10:10 am
the tension between saudi arabia and iran, where do they go from here? >> it is hard to see how they will be diffused. because they have the relation with the saudi's and iranians and most other countries, that they offer themselves up to be some kind of mediator between both sides. it is hard to see how they could reach an agreement between now and the next main gathering of oil ministers in june or beyond that. you simply have two ,iametrically opposed positions now around $3.29 per day and a saudi's refused to. very hard to see how they square the circle. betty: thank you so much, elliott. let's take a closer look at what affectprices and how can the economy. joining us now is the director of the global oil markets research at the columbia center of equity policy and also the
10:11 am
chief analyst at the international agency. good to see you today. barclays among other houses with reaction, they say it is a serious low to the oil market. is that accurate? >> yes and no. i do not think anyone expect a major change in fundamentals. the idea of a freeze would not thely have changed production situation. it would put a nice spin on the market, but the fact the group cannot put up with a statement and the display of unity, that was provided, is quite unprecedented, as is the mixed messaging. betty: politics trends fundamentals and markets? >> yes and that is a new thing. it is not the first time members of opec are on the opposite sides of the issue.
10:12 am
it is the first time this is coming up so openly and interfering with policy in so blatant a fashion. mark: is that it when it comes to the host of a coordinated agreement? see it finished, dead in the water, we're done with that now? done with it're but i am not sure that is a bad from because we are seeing the lack of policy, the market is nursing itself back to health thanks mostly to opec. mark: doesn't this delay the time for when the market will rebalance? won was saying it would happen in 2018. when do you see it rebalancing? >> i see it as the end of this year or early next year. it will delay a short-term spike in prices.
10:13 am
we have seen it in the response of the markets since the meeting took lace. longer-term, recovery in the market. in the way, it is good news. up thei want to bring chart julie had earlier, which shows the enormous tumble we saw in oil prices, which hit the 12 year low. and then, when the idea that there may be a freeze, look at the rally since february of this year. is there a sense that in the short-term, maybe we will delay a short-term spike. >> i am not sure the rally is just about the idea of a rally in opec. if that were the case, we would see a bigger reaction today. i think the recovery in the market is really driven by low
10:14 am
prices. there are signs of a response there. mark: stuck in a fairly narrow band now? state ofin for a higher volatility, i think that is right. fundamentally, directionally, i think prices will start recovering and we recover as signs of a fundamental response, you know, getting more clear. are likely time, we to see spikes up and down. probably further weakness in prices before recovery will continue before the cleanup of supply happened. betty: thank you so much, antwaun. direction of research at the

10:19 am
helping matters either. shares are little changed down one quarter of 1%. higher at one point. let's run through. that was a smaller decline and had been estimated, like many of the other banks we have been hearing from. they cut costs. that was one of the ways they got the better than estimated profits. ae company expressed willingness to cut costs further if that is indeed necessary. as matt miller pointed out earlier, like many of the banks, the estimates for morgan stanley had been slashed going into the report. they beat the estimate. take a look at how other banks are trading today piers morgan stanley fell a bit. not much across the board but a generally more positive tone then we are seeing with the exception of citigroup. at kbw.et downgraded
10:20 am
getting back to morgan stanley and the trend we have seen cutting expenses, here is an exchange of non-interest quarter by quarter. in the most recent quarter, it was a 14% decline. trend for the bank and a trend at the other bank as well. in terms of the year-over-year change in revenue, morgan stanley with a 20 -- a 20% drop in the steepest among the peers whom we have heard from thus far. mark: still ahead, deadline day in the bidding for yahoo! who is in the running. that is after the break. ♪

10:24 am
we know private equity firms are planning on bidding. these private equity firms could in the coming days and weeks partner up with other statistics. placeecause he did not the first-round bid does not mean you are out of it, but it will give you an indication of who the most likely bidders are. i am talking about tpg and we are looking at others that we hope to sit -- report as the day progresses. why do so many others like google and microsoft, i do not even know if microsoft will, but they all drop out? why? >> every single one of the companies has a different reason. google, we reported that last week. probably because of antitrust concerns. microsoft has gone in a different direction. they made a bid for yahoo! in 2009. the company has moved much more
10:25 am
closely toward enterprise. pretty straightforward a couple of months ago, saying he really did not see what value yahoo! had and if he could i yahoo! for a dollar or so, maybe he would but other than that, he would not get into a bidding war. comcast is one we thought might bid. comcast is not an international player. yahoo! was a weird fit show me movies with explosions.

10:35 am
a lot of uncertainty that has caused the near-term buying momentum to stall. we see a break in the near turned -- perhaps we will see a surprise but probably likely and fitting to previous quarters have the stock has traded after reports of volatility. mark: nasdaq up. abigail: the biggest boost is amazon. the internet giant has said it is introducing a video only subscription service to rival netflix. while introducing a monthly payment option for amazon prime. this stock market has had a huge turnaround. shares of amazon are down year to date. a 30% bear market on the company's week fourth-quarter report. interesting to see what happens with the company's first-quarter report when they report thursday after the bell. mark: betty, shall we talked brazil? betty: we shall. one of the big events that happened over the weekend. crushing defeat for dilma rousseff. in a 10 hour session brazil's
10:36 am
lower house of congress voted in favor of her impeachment. a decision that could bring down the curtain on 13 years of leftist rule. rousseff is defiant calling the vote a coup. the solicitor general maintains she is not going to resign from the presidency. this break with the constitution is in our view a coup against the democracy. a coup against the 54 million brazilians who voted for dilma rousseff. a coup against a constitution that was it a consequence of the historic conquest after the dictatorship of 1964. betty: strong words. when news that the results broke , residents in the streets are -- erupted in celebration. in other areas, the skies lit up with fireworks. quite an emotional reaction. john freire joining us now.
10:37 am
describe the scene because there was -- there were also tears for rousseff supporters as well. tears of sadness and joy from both sides last night. an extremely emotional affair. when you actually listen to what the lawmakers were saying as they walk up to the podium, people mentioned the key charge against rousseff, one of mismanaging the budget. very emotional scenes. also interesting to point out that the proceedings were overseen by the head of the lower house who himself is facing a corruption charges. lots of political gray areas along with the passion last night. betty: it is kind of a gray area what happens next.
10:38 am
tell us exactly what is next. rousseff isbt dilma receiving lots of different pieces of advice from her close aides. the main avenue for her is to challenge, to fight been peaches motion in the senate. right now she does not have the numbers to win. the other avenue she can take is to go back to the supreme court. she tried to do that thursday night. that did not work out either. a third option, no doubt she will be considering, one of holding early election. mark: once the initial euphoria fades, if and when rousseff is impeached, the big job remains, tackling fiscal issues and economic issues. who is best placed to do that?
10:39 am
that the man in line to do according to the constitution is is the vicent -- president. he faces accusations by rousseff herself. she says he is the face of the coup so there is no love lost between them. he is seen as being a more business friendly president. seen as someone who could tackle some of the fiscal problems that the country has. bear in mind he will have a relatively limited mandate. he will inherit the country that will be difficult for him to push through meaningful reforms that investors are looking for in brazil. mark: if he cannot push through meaningful reforms, does that mean the rally we have seen in brazilian assets has got limited time to run? john: that is a concern of some investors. bear in mind, brazilian assets,
10:40 am
so low. the market route was so savage it might well be some upside to where we are from here. looking at the long-term for brazil, it -- we are a long way away from the euphoria we saw over the last decade fueled by the commodities boom. with oil prices over the weekend showing no signs of sustaining the rally, the medium to long-term prospect for the brazilian economy are not fantastic. betty: i want to play some of the analysis from some of those on the outside and how they viewed what happened over the weekend. richard hoss, head of accounts on foreign relations. let's hear what he said about this. >> brazil has not begun to transition. it has to get through this messy impeachment issue. let me give you one example about the dysfunctionality of brazilian politics. in their congress there is no threshold for political
10:41 am
participation. better than two dozen parties. imagine trying to govern with a coalition that has to be framed with more than two dozen parties. you can't make the government work. on top of that you have state-owned oil company that is corruption on steroids and you have a political culture that is deeply flawed. betty: this is much more than just getting rid of the current president. this is fundamental change of the political system in brazil and the way the economy works. john: that's right. this is what richard haass says. parties within the brazilian parliament that can make government difficult. you can turn that on its head and compare a country like brazil to south africa where the anc has this almost inbuilt majority. we have seen the problems jacob zuma has. argue the chaotic
10:42 am
nature of brazilian democracy. it looks like there is this impeachment mechanism that you can use to get rid of a president if the parliament and congress so decides. you can look at it both ways. john: speaking to people on the ground, is there optimism in the air? our people aware of the structural fiscal economic challenges that face the country? is.: i think there each part oracy faction of society says it is not up to us to make the sacrifices. supporters of rousseff argue the workers party in their 12 or 13 years in power have done more than anyone else in recent resilient history to lift
10:43 am
millions of people out of poverty. they would say it is not up to them to make sacrifices. middle-classe members of society would say the same. there is deep-rooted cynicism within brazil about the ability of politicians to fix their problems. as i said, with any democracy, perhaps a reluctance to tighten belts to make sacrifices needed. mark: great to see you. thank you for filling us in on the big day of impeachment. proceedings. john fraher in brazil. using the term block chain or imris if gives you anxiety. we have everything covered. we will teach you how to sound like the smartest person at a tech conference. ♪
