tom: this morning, the may report on the american labor economy. in this hour, we searched for rage growth in america. the brexit debate heats up the prime minister. he will attempt to get to monday. a conversation with charles evans of chicago. good morning, this is bloomberg "surveillance," tom keene in new .ork, caroline hyde in london so much going on. what would you look for in the brexit debate throughout the weekend?

caroline: the war of words continuing, but i think getting the use out to vote, it has been so persistently about the economy. when will we see it and sent of i's to exert their democratic right -- right? poor, 0%,ne looking no change, no growth for european retail sales in the month of april. the market is expecting at least ..0 -- 0.4% increase eurozone still not looking all that pretty when it comes to the data. polarity of the consumer in europe versus a better consumer and the united states, charles evans coming up. our first word news. nejra: the u.s. labor department's monthly job deport

do well later this month -- later today. payrolls rising by 160,000 in may. that would equal april's total but would mark a slowdown from average monthly growth of almost 230,000 jobs. british prime minister david cameron denying accusations he is ratcheting up fears about the impact of a potential brexit. last night he defended while outlining the potential economic headlines from a departure. >> we have to negotiate our exit and trading arrangements and 53 other trading arrangements. in my view this would take a decade. do we want a decade of uncertainty? nejra: the u.k. referendum on u.k. number ship is on june 23.

on eu membership is on june 23. tom: across the bloomberg this morning, and 10 minutes ago, headlines by charles evans of chicago. every fed president and governor makes headlines. david weston spoke with governor to rouleau yesterday. anna edwards to charles evans out of chicago, and he has been a most interesting and nuanced voice in the recent weeks. anna: thank you very much. is with me right now, so let's get to that conversation. great to have you on the program. into minesat you are going into the june fomc meeting. are you leaning one way or the other? charles: i tried to raise two

possibilities. the expectation going into the meeting, i am expecting economic positions have improved. i expect that it will be appropriate to raise the funds rate twice in 2016 so by the end of the year we will be in the range of 75 to 100 basis points. unfortunately, i think it is going to take three years or more to get inflation to our 2% objective so what i tried to lay whether we thought it was more important to get to a 2% inflation sooner to solidify further inflations. there might be some value to think about holding off until we get core inflation up to 2%. that is not what i expect policy to be that i think it is worth getting inflation expectations up. anna: can you see a situation

where they u.s. allows inflation to get higher before hiking rate? charles: my outlook for the to two is far about 2% and a half percent growth going forward. that is above trend at the moment so i would say -- i would not say it is hot but it is running pretty well. if we did not raise rates the two times i'm thinking, i would say there is a downsize risk. 75 to end of the year, 100 basis points is about right. anna: payrolls due out later today. how will you be adjusting those numbers when you are trying to work those into your june-july process. the verizon strike, or you be adapting that data to give you a cleaner picture? charles: there are likely some

effects like the verizon strike so that might knock it down a little bit. i think looking for good payroll employment growth. 200,000 overged the past year. we will look at the adjustments but i am expecting a good number. anna: how would you adjust for those kind of effects? people are asking if it is possible to get a clean number, and does that take june off the table? charles: we have seen good process in the labor market so i would not get too excited over one number. i do think that there is a lot of value to allowing enough time to monitor the situation, especially if you think that things might be changing a little bit. that might be one rationale for holding off. i do not think the timing for our rate hikes is important so much. if we were to move in june it could work, july could work,

september could work. i think two hikes in 2016 could approach -- could be appropriate. anna: if you are going to do it in july you might have to call a press conference. charles: that is the case. chair yellen has two press conferences a year, june and september. have tested it on short notice. she can get people on the phone and explain our decision. anna: let's talk about how the markets are position for the summer because we are talking -- mid 20'ske 20's expectations around a june hike and it gets to the 50% area for july. can the fed move if we do not have a higher percentage expectation of a rate hike? charles: we have tried to be as

clear as we possibly could be, we have an outlook. we think inflation is moving up and we have more confidence than we had before. from the 17ion participants is that it is likely there will be two moves this year. one could be in june. one could be in july. i think the markets have heard us and that chair yellen's comments the other day were well heard. market missed matched, would that be troubling? charles: we are not talking about such a substantial move that it should be a big surprise either way. anna: we are here in london. let's talk about the upcoming eu referendum or brexit debate. putting out a note saying they think the brexit decision could

be more influential on the fed in june than the payrolls report we are waiting for. is that a good measure of the magnitude? charles: this is adding a lot of uncertainty to the global environment and there is a lot of uncertainty with global slowing around the world. the u.s. has a strong economy and the question is are the conditions right where we could take another step in terms of tightening? we would like to have a resolution of as much uncertainty as possible, so the brexit vote gets in the way of that. we are going to focus on the u.s. economy financial conditions, whether the global economy has imparted to much global restrictiveness. anna: what is the concern around brexit, around a short-term alatility in markets or long-term concern for the growth of the u.k.? brexitbeen said that

could lead the u.k. into a recession. charles: it is just a big unknown. it is not my country or economy so i am listening to opinions on this. it suggests there's so much uncertainty it would be difficult to take a decision ahead of that vote. afterwards, depending on the situation, the next two years could be a difficult time for making decisions so i can understand some of those comments you have alluded to. anna: charles evans, president of the federal bank -- federal reserve bank of chicago. tom: that really advances the conversation forward. what i gleaned from the bloomberg headlines, caroline once was charles evans again distancing himself from the so-called inflation-istas. he made it clear that this is a

fed they can wait on inflation and it is something governor carney has also alluded to. caroline: maybe they want the overall economy to look that much stronger, get more hotter in terms of 2% to two and a half percent growth this year. significant issues about brexit i think. tom: the brexit news always important. let me do two boards. equities, bonds, currencies, commodities, or are some real nuances on this jobs day. yen stronger, a $50 brent. curve flattening this morning. this is a big deal under 91 basis points. 0.11%,man 10 year yield, grinding ever lower.

london, from new york, bloomberg "surveillance." ♪

caroline: welcome back, i am caroline hyde in london with tom keene in new york. let's digest more of what came out of charles evans. stretch is our guest host. give me a sense of how you digested that comment from charles evans. he is in london but he does have the year of the fed. think we have to assume that june is on the table because all fed meetings are

live so there will be a live debate, but i think the reality is it seems increasingly unlikely that a june move is a proceed,that we can partly because of the concerns about brexit. it did not appear that mr. evans knew a great deal about the mechanics of it, but from our risks associated with broader performance, so that precludes probably a scenario for june and we probably need to see more information on how the economy is doing. there is a lot of debate on how clean the numbers will be today so we need more information from the labor markets and more confirmation he inflation is moving higher before the federal -- federal reserve feels comfortable to move the rates. perceptive --

caroline: how much do you think this next move is going to be affected by the ramifications on the rest of the world? jeremy: if you go back to last september we had the fed statement that referenced global conditions. we are talking china. the fed has been looking externally and the impact of that on their own domestic considerations. in a sense you could argue that is abrogating monetary policy responsibility. i think because of the one off nature of this event that is upcoming after the june fomc, i think it would be prudent for the fed to signal that we are getting ready to move at the june meeting and see how events pan out in the subsequent weeks prior to the rate trigger in july or september. tom: jeremy, good morning. i want to bring up euro-yen.

it is a nuanced fx market. omics, and we are rolling over with a vengeance. getting yen, week euro to one standard deviation on the two week trend. the mexican peso unwinding as weakness thatrd getting there quickly. what is the framework off the cibc trading desk? i want a handle on where we are now in terms of different pairs being extended. jeremy: i think you have raised a number of interesting points. clearly in places such as mexico, there are presumptions that that is a liquid currency for markets. when we see structural concerns that often is reflected in the

performance of mexico. in the context of euro-yen, you are right that we have seen a rolling over. where the japanese monetary policy will go from here and whether they will be doubling down on rates in july, the question of this rolling over underlines inherit market uncertainty -- inherit market uncertainty. think we will see a degree of moderation on the euro side of the equation over the next month or two as i think monetary policy differentials come back will keep and that euro-dollar on the defensive. perspective ween should be trading a little bit higher and we will be looking at front and spreads -- front and spreads. tom: this chart surprised me, this is dollar mexico. in the crisis, a lot

of peso weakness and we get this leg up. i am sorry, nobody is covering this. we get this new leg up and some of these adjacent hydrocarbon currencies. does that set us up for a brutal june? jeremy: i think june is set up for a period of uncertainty, or a summer of uncertainty because there are a lot of event risks we are focusing on particularly in europe. decision -- the german court decision on the onc , so there are a lot of domestic considerations and a risk parameter scenario to factor in along with broader market uncertainty about the global backdrop. those currencies in particular that have a commodity component or a significant commodity component, where there are signs of structural weakness or signs of investors looking to head for

the exits, i think mexico is one and i think the rand is another. i think investors are preferring the safety of the currencies which are much more liquid. tom: i bring this up because i think it is going to be fascinating 12 days to the june fed mating. charles evans not saying much about the emerging market. not much on jobs. our all-star lineup, alan krueger, james glassman, after the jobs report on bloomberg radio. ♪

before the job stay in the united states to catch up with rendon brown, one of the great figures with mitsubishi musc a and is still with us. on thes up to date economic contraction that we are seeing in europe, in asia. we had a pmi derby this week. what does it mean? what you are seeing in europe is a fairly stagnant picture by germany is relatively strong and there has been a little bit of cheer on the french side. in the global environment of slow economic activity, many risks which are more for the downside dan upside. tom: we mentioned earlier some of the currency. do you believe that we will see brutal moves or is it a

financial system that is within stability? brendan: i think we are in a financial system which is unstable. thehe case of japan, backtracking on raising the sales tax and the stimulus raises the prospect that sometime we will get a flight and concerns about sovereignty of the japanese government. no one will give you a timing that that is an underlying instability. when we turn to the u.s., these low, long-term interest rates in is actually telling you there is a lot of concern about underlying potential for the u.s. economy to slow down in various public sectors to go in reverse. caroline: we have had a call to arms from the oecd for governments to start spending. do you agree? -- the: i think it is

time to engage in public spending projects is when the economy is prosperous. in the present situation that is not what should be happening. the accent should be on stimulating entrepreneurship and the investment side of the economy. caroline: jeremy, are you in agreement? jeremy: i think there are inherent instabilities within the situation and the question is can we work through those? whether the stimulus is a necessary juncture, i think in the context of the ecb they would clearly like to be pushing germany toward some kind of fiscal easing. i think that is the debating point, but there are still some -- it is a there question of making sure they would be using those opportunities rationally to provide growth stimulus to the other nations across the

eurozone to provide a more's table economic- a more stable economic environment. thought charles evans with our in a evans earlier in the hour absolutely nailed something you have always talked about. i definition, central banks act after the fact. he talked about overshooting and heating up or re-fleeting and economy, and that really underscores there is no way any central bank and get out in front of the data and debate. fedmy: the history of the or any other central bank shows that fine-tuning is almost doomed to failure. that is the basis of our main argument for why central banks should get out of this fine-tuning business altogether. instead of these fantastic debates about whether a 25 basis point rate rise should take

place, the fed should slim down its balance sheet and the monetary base becomes the -- of the system. tom: you wrote about the global curse. define for us the global curse the chair yellen faces. >> is a curse of her own making and with many asset markets inflated, everyone knows it is going to fall at some point but nobody knows when and there is a tremendous amount of caution for doing anything. if they go out and pay big dividends and buyback equity, we are seeing low investment and productivity. that is the curse of the fed, in addition to which we know that all of this is very likely to unwind at some point and there

will be another recession and financial outcomes. caroline: doom and gloom. where do we trade? jeremy: i think in a sense this is a classic example of the emperor has no clothes. we continue to see moderate growth and asset markets holding up relatively well, if you can be the first mover to get out of that process when it reverses that is where the investors have some degree of opportunity. arehe short term i think we in the scenario of saying the global economy continue to generate modest growth. the question is when are we going to hit when that crisis market starts to kick in? brown'syou have brendan caution, do you buy definition get a strong dollar?

the reserve currency has to take it up, right? jeremy: i think it probably does. in a sense the longer-term dollar is relatively fully valued that i think we will see the u.s. dollar moving back a little bit higher, although i would not necessarily expect to see the dollar index trading substantially north of that 100 area. yes it will strengthen a little bit further. that would obviously be a cause theoncern or caution for central bank in terms of the immediate monetary policy direction but the u.s. is not necessarily reliant on export related demands to generate growth. acceptable not quite to the currency strength in other markets. tom: a great international briefing before we get to the jobs report this morning. radio,up on bloomberg michael mckee and i are pleased

is good if you have the people look for what they want. but they all really need to be educated about what they are voting for and what is at stake. his jamie dimon opened comments harkening back to 1939 and 1940. there is a whole political tinge to this as well. is there a market tinge? can you take all of this uncertainty and the history we are seeing and bring it over to investing, or is it completely removed? howard: i recall a couple of weeks ago when the polls on brexit were clearly showing an attitude to remain. remainas talk that the vote had broken out in the markets breathed a sigh of relief. now the polls have tightened up quite a bit, and the markets are much more tentative. so i do think that clearly the remain vote toa

volatility we are seeing in the fx market is not being replicated in the equity market in the united kingdom. these are multinational firms. can you give us a sense of what the economic damage would be for companies within the u.k. if we saw a move to exit ceu? -- the eu? harm: it all depends. the biggest risk if there should be a brexit vote is huge financial market volatility. the risk is that then the equity market will be heavily impacted. the long-term implications depend on how the u.k. will renegotiate contracts, trade agreements, with europe and the rest of the world. a is probably long-term bigger issue for london and the u.k. than for the companies. the companies may decide to relocate. vote, thes a brexit picture that you just described,

the resilience of the equity market, would most likely change. caroline: i have a great chart on the terminal at the moment. when you are showing the different volatility between what is going on in the fx market, this is the blue line, the british pound. look at the blue line spiking. big oil and gas copies might benefit from a weaker -- big oil and gas companies might benefit from a weaker pound. policyout where monetary goes? if we did indeed see the u.k. leave the eu, you are going to see a cutting of the interest rates in the u.k. what does that mean in terms of assets? howard: it is a good question. i think we have to frame it in the context of the fed's next meeting here, which is before the brexit vote by about a week. if they want to do anything this

summer, they should wait till july, not june. if we do get a vote to leave, you will see a much more dovish roster on the part of the central banks. tom: here is the german 10-year right now. this is a chart we have not shown in a wild. it is a little deceptive. the swings down -- harm, we are getting a new one right now. europe is greatly affected by the brexit debate. what did you see this week within the economic data of europe? harm: i think in europe we see the mirror image of what is going on in the u.s. in the u.s. there was a lackluster force quarter -- there was a lackluster first quarter and we are getting a stronger second quarter. the latest pmi indicates a correction on the negative side. i think the picture overall is still all right. 1.5% gdp growth is ok for europe. tom: we are getting back on

demographic aging on wage growth. tom: watch yourself. paid babybetter boomers are retiring and being replaced by not so well-paid younger ones. because we have the baby boomers, the effect is getting bigger right now than it has been in the past, and that is holding wage gains down. there was good research from the san francisco fed a couple of months ago and the atlanta fed, which gave one of the better pictures for underlying wage growth. 3.4% here, and we are almost back to where we were before the crash. we are not back to where we were on a nominal basis in 2000. are you going to see any of this in the 8:30 numbers this morning, or is that old-style data? harm: as i mentioned, we have seen the average hourly earnings

pointing north as well. i am worried that this is only affecting payrolls and that it is affecting hours worked, and there may be an impact on hourly earnings as well. i think average hourly earnings are starting to mirror this as well. tom: we are going to regroup here. howard ward with a spirit we will speak about apple computer, goldman sachs with that important adjustment yesterday, the research on iphone 7 and all that. still a lot of enthusiasm on apple at goldman sachs. harm bandholz on jobs day. do not forget kruger, glassman, and gross.

howard ward. caroline: i want to see where the u.s. goes in terms of earnings in the second half of the year. we have seen strong dollar resurging third what does that mean for the multinationals in terms of the earnings season for the second quarter? the first quarter of this year should mark the low point for earnings comparisons for the year, so we should get progressively better earnings compared to over the course of the year. the dollar has recently lifted a little bit, but it is lower than where it was back in february when it peaked. the strength of the dollar headwind should be largely behind us. the decline in oil and the impact that has had on energy industry profits should be mostly behind us. we are looking at a better profit picture. we do not have an economy that is robust and we have an economy that has accelerated like a

turtle, and as someone who used to race turtles as a child in michigan, they have a strong acceleration -- tom: you realize this is going out on twitter? howard: there could be a future there. we should think about that. they do not go very fast. they reach their top speed very quickly, and then they just sort of go slowly. that is where we are with this economy. we are looking at 3%, 4% operating earnings growth. not bad, it could be worse. caroline: you had a wild childhood. wheretalk to harm about he sees the earnings future going for the united states. there seems to be a discrepancy of where the dollar goes from here. with theally up diverting of bank policy, or is the dollar done? tom: it is a great question, harm your it you centered your economics report on the stock

market. harm: our view has been when we entered the year, we were one of the outsiders. we were the outsider saying your dollar goes up. tom: i remember this. harm: it went up faster than we thought. one of the rationales that we had is that the fx market priced in much more interest rate divergence between europe and the u.s. then the interest rate market. so the fx market went ahead of itself. you remember when the euro -dollar went down, it was expected to stop at 1.10 or something like that. the trend is still higher. we think we are going back to 1.20 over the next several quarters, but my personal view is with the fed pulling the trigger over the summer, you may see a little bit of a downward move, but then the upward trend resuming. your question of how this fits in, the fed has started to emphasize global development more than ever.

so then you look at what has changed in terms of the international linkage of the u.s. economic with the rest of the world, and the real answer is it is a share of s&p foreign earnings. tom: howard, you have something to say. howard: we need to point out there seems to be in general an assumption that when and if the fed raises rates, that is a pro-dollar move. that would be a mistake to assume that. see a lowere to dollar. that would be better for earnings and growth. and if there is an acceleration and global growth, we would like to see a lower dollar accompanying that. tom: we will try to figure out what to do. after the jobs report, after alan krueger, after jim glassman, after bill gross, aloomberg " with

hugely. -- which, as we saw in 2008, spiked hugely. you, live uso ask a sense of the volatility that you are trading with at the moment. how are you looking through this geopolitical uncertainty? are you taking any bets? howard: the equity markets have been amazingly stable, given what is going on in the world. every time we are sort of feeling like the market wants to come in and give us any kind of a correction, it does not last. buyers come in, and i think this gets back to the fact that with 1% interest rates, there is really no good alternative for stocks to earn a real return, as long as the economies are moving forward. the volatility that you might have expected, we have not gotten it. it might come, but it has not

yet. when you are focusing on the pound and the euro and the volatility, one of the assumptions is a vote to leave the euro would be negative for the pound, negative for the u.k. it would be negative for the euro. harm, you mentioned earlier the outlier hall of the assumption of the weaker euro. let's go back and look at the of credit. you look at the weaker euro, parity. you guys were, here is consensus. the world is coming to an end. you guys said maybe not. this goes to howard's point. just just a much -- it is as much about urodynamics, isn't it? harm: i am hoping we will figure theut, but we hope

resilience of the euro would last with a brexit vote. some smaller countries want to leave. i do not think it happens, but -- we saw corporate officers away from the media, the hysteria and all the articles, the multiple walls of worry. corporate officers are just going to keep doing business, and that is where the opportunity is. howard: they are also going to be encouraging people to vote with their wallets. in other words, pride of nationalism, there might be some non-economic reasons why the brits would like to leave the european union, but if they are voting with their wallets -- tom: do you change your framework with what jeffrey immelt is doing with ge right now? where are you on ge? is there an opportunity? howard: ge has done a great job,

earnings as well. it is not the best measure, but overall it is trending higher. the eci is pointing a little bit higher. not as much as we would like to see, but it is biased by demographics. tom: come on over, anthony, and grabbed this. this is a huge deal. 0.1%, .099%. below that is a huge statistic that speaks volumes about your. thank you, caroline hyde. thank you, harm bandholz. howard ward will continue with us on bloomberg radio. there is a remarkable set of news flow this jobs day. stay with us. ♪
