5:01 am
need to start looking at the implications of a possible brexit. tom: we are going to touch on that. i want to say thank you to all the people who e-mailed in about the new wants we gave to all the data checks. it is that kind of thursday and friday. francine: it all goes back to negative rates and the limits of monetary policy. let's get to the bloomberg first word news. >> president obama made it official. he has formally endorsed hillary clinton to succeed him in the white house. nbc'sinterview on "tonight show," he spoke. >> the main role on going to be playing in this process is to remind the american people that this is a serious job.

bid.cannot get a oil pretty much where it was. on to the next screen. yen in the next block. 106.95. that is a weaker yen. as francine mentioned come the 10-year0 year -- german , there it is. swissd note -- the 20-year plunged down relative to everything else in the last few hours. francine: yields are going lower and lower. look at the japanese 10 year yield. we will touch on japan later. it underpins the week we have had. a quick look at the european stocks.
5:05 am
stocks overall are paring their weekly gains. i was just reminded that next week we have the fed, the boe, and the boj. we are in central bank watch. tom: we are going to do a real interesting 15 days or so. we are thrilled to bring you our coverage of brexit as we move on to june 23. this is a chart which basically says america is not immune to the trends that we see in europe and japan. we will see this this morning. the michigan expectation of where inflation is. you can see we have rolled over 15 years. we have rolled over with a vengeance. this looks remarkably like a lot of other charts when we look back 10-15 years. francine: this is what i did.
5:06 am
we are 13 days away from the referendum on brexit and investors are trying to figure out what it means for their portfolios. krone inhe norwegian blue. this is the pound. us,cally, what this shows is that as these portfolios are being readjusted, we may see the nordic market taking a hit, although scandinavia's biggest bank says they may have a little bit of a release in the meantime. one of the best foreign exchange strategists is here to help us talk about all the ball of tilly -- the volatility we have seen and macy. -- may see. thank you for joining us. we need to talk about yields. how significant is it that we saw a record lows for the german
5:07 am
10-year and japanese 10-year? >> it is significant. i think the main link is that it is a difficult environment for global reserve managers. naturally, they try to avoid holding negative yielding assets or currencies with negative to them.ached ultimately, they are forced to move further up the curve. this props up asset prices and necessitates interest rates in the developed world staying low. think thaty i don't we are being very aggressive with our fed view. francine: on yields, they will continue going lower? stephen: i think for the time , the in front of brexit brexit risk, the eu referendum, it is difficult for me to see
5:08 am
markets not being jittery, unless the polls move significantly in favor of remain or something like that. tom: you can't do friday unless allotalk to stephen g about newtonian mechanics. equationck to newton's on gravity. with that idea, would you explain to me the gravity motto -- model of europe right now? it is not brexit for brexit or what is going on at the fed meeting, but what it means for this clumsy thing known as euro. explain the gravity model of europe right now. basicallyrade gravity -- there is evidence of it in europe. rich, large economies tend to do
5:09 am
lots of trade with other rich, neighboring economies and poorer economies tend to do less trade with each other when they are further apart, especially when they are further apart. trade gravity holds. brexit wouldhat a intentionally make trade flow more difficult. less streamlined, potentially. essentially, you are unscrambling the omelette. tom: i love what you are doing here. it really goes to our conversation in the next half hour. understand is that trade gravity within europe if we get brexit. what happens to germany -netherlands, germany-poland, france-italy -- will it fall apart? stephen: i think there are political risks for what remains
5:10 am
of the eu if the u.k. leaves. what the trade model shows is that these countries want to do most of their trade with one another, so their growth depends significantly on free trade flow. example. for if that breaks down, it could be detrimental to growth. tom: i think this is absolutely critical. it is always good to quote newtonian functions on a friday. francine: yes. youuld be disappointed if don't have some kind of equation for the last part of the show, tom. tom: i will work on that. francine: we speak with the former ecb president later this morning. stephen gallo is also with us. ♪

francine: welcome back. tom keene is in new york. i'm francine lacqua. >> a whistleblower is helping u.s. regulators investigate nk.ch a bank -- deutsche ba they may have inflated the value of mortgage bonds on it stocks. the bank said it was cooperating with its investigation. new drones will help man fighter planes, not replace them. a plan for newed combat drones. these would contact ground controllers only to start an attack. the success of elon musk's
5:14 am
spacex has given europe's space industry a wake-up call. france's space agency said people in europe thought elon musk was just hot air. europe is now scrambling to come up with its own reusable rocket. francine: global bond yields are grinding lower. japan's benchmark bond yields plunged to a record low. concern is this falling yield? it all has to do with being a safe haven or a haven for japan. >> absolutely correct. i think we will see the boj talking about this.
5:15 am
we have a policy board decision due out on thursday. do not expect the boj to act. tom: into the weekend and into what is the level of sweat among the elite in japan. the japanese chart is remarkable. brian, i'm going to show dollar-yen. bojriginal action. here is the vector we rolled over. there has got to be a point where panic sets in or is the panic already there? i think that level we saw last month is a big one. that is where the dollar found support. i think japan would really start to panic if we got down to ¥100 per dollar.
5:16 am
they are not going to intervene unilaterally with decisions less than a week off. francine: is there anything they can do that governor kuroda can do to try to defend themselves? brian: it is going to be interesting to watch. one of the things that was interesting last week was the lbp put out its election the firstand for time, there was no mention of the boj. when you think about the free era, the most effective one was monetary policy and now they are not even talking about it. mr. kuroda may be in a situation where he does not have as much influence. tom: can toyota get business done with the yen at 1.06? brian: toyota is a very smart company. absolutely. they may pretend otherwise, but absolutely.
5:17 am
they have seen worse. it is not a big fear for them. francine: thank you so much for the update. mohamed el-erian spoke to bloombergtv last week and saying banks. nightmare for the stephen gallo, this is a great financial experiment. will japan actually deliver? stephen: there are question marks over that already. i think you already have the answer, the increase in the consumption tax was pushed back -- you have the answer to that. it is inherently difficult for net creditor economies in this environment. if the central bank encourages outflows, you get short-term weakness in your currency, but the minute global markets go into turmoil, a lot of the
5:18 am
capital comes back on shore. tom: to keep the newtonian angle going, does japan have the inertial force to reverse the yen to a weaker again -- yen? or do they need a market hope and prayer of flows? stephen: i think they need to intervene when the flows are going with them. tom: interesting. stephen: when brexit risk is not on the horizon, when global markets are not in turmoil. u.s.terest rates in the are in an uptrend, if they are moving higher, that is a better time for the boj to intervene -- if they can get away with it without annoying policymakers in washington. francine: overall -- and this is my chart of the hour -- japan in white, germany in blue -- those yields ever lower. this is what you are talking
5:19 am
about, risk-aversion. do we need a catalyst before this? stephen: risk aversion is one aspect of it. then you have capital needs, regulatory changes. there are many different factors. low wages in the developed world. you are talking about a catalyst. francine: from where? or do we not need one? stephen: for it to reverse? i think we need to get through the eu referendum first. you still have the risk that fed rate hikes will have dampening effects on emerging market economies. you have the china story. the risk of a sharp reversal is low. , thevery quickly here accelerations we see out there, i've got a german 10-year at a new low. is there a trade flow pricing up
5:20 am
that bond with a lower yield? how are we actually moving the german 10-year right now? is that big institutional money? stephen: i think it could be a lot of what is going on at the moment with eurozone rates, corporate credit spreads. it is largely a function of what the ecb is doing. that is an important factor. it is one that will keep a lid on euro-dollar. 110-114 trade a at the moment. tom: yields just broke down. 10-year with pressure. futures are -10. u.s. futures down -13. we will drive forward the conversation in her next hour. john silvia of wells fargo.

the hour. yields, isok at the there a direct link to how we see the world and the impact on dollar? stephen: i think that the dollar, at the moment, if your outlook is almost 100% based on what your fed call is. if we have one more fed rate hike for the remainder of the year -- that is about 75% priced in. we will probably get a 3% appreciation of the dollar. if they move twice, we may add most get 4.5%. tom: very quickly, jean-claude trichet talks about brutal moves. these are brutal moves we are seeing in the market. stephen: yes. we have talked about liquidity before. this is significant.

liquidity is very poor. you can also see this if you look at the implied volatility. a lot of that kink in the curve is due to the liquidity. conditionsignificant . francine: coming up, we have a great, exclusive interview with jean-claude trichet. we will be talking with him about negative rates, qe inflation. ♪

let's get to our friday first word news. >> the obama administration is on the verge of giving the military more authority to conduct airstrikes in afghanistan according to a senior defense official. afghan troops have been struggling in their fight against the taliban. the u.s. house has passed a bipartisan bill aimed at resolving puerto rico's debt crisis. the bill would create an oversight board to restructure the debt. it has to be passed by the senate still. puerto rico faces a july 1 deadline for a $2 billion debt payment. one of the most expensive national disasters in canada's history is expected to create a real estate boom. the wildfire destroyed over 2000 homes. the rebuilding may provide a $785 million boost to alberta's economy. the former london mayor boris

johnson came under fire at a televised debate on the european union referendum. he is the figurehead for the brexit campaign. three opponents accused him of being more interested in furthering his career. dayal news 24 hours per powered by our 24 hour -- 4400 journalists around the world. francine: we have been talking about yields, about how we saw a record low yields for the 10-year german bond and four u.k. guilds. let's talk to a man who knows a thing or two about central-bank policy, the former ecb president jean-claude trichet. very pleased to say he joins us live for an exclusive interview from paris. thank you for joining us today. it is a hard week to understand policy.ts of monetary
5:32 am
do you believe it still has the tools to go into negative territory? mr. trichet: i think really that monetary policy is doing what it should probably do in very, very difficult circumstances, in japan, europe, and also the u.s. it should not be the only game in town. the problem is that the government and all other partners have to do their job. again, central banks cannot be the only game in town. francine: do you think they should go into deeper negative territory? is trichet: my understanding that they are doing a lot, obviously, and everybody can see that. they have taken decisions which are very difficult to take, very bold, but necessary, in the circumstances. i hope very much that they will not be obliged to do more, taken
5:33 am
into consideration that they are counting on governments and parliaments, particularly in europe. the language of the ecb in europe is very strong on the other partners, governments, and parliaments. this is absolutely of the essence. my working assumption would be it would be progressively implemented, that the appropriate correction would be done by all countries concerned, and that the central bank could be released a little bit. and wee: i understand hear that from mario draghi and central bankers around the world, but the release is just not coming. to central banks need to step away? ?r can they do more will they do helicopter money?
5:34 am
mr. trichet: appropriate work will be progressively done. that the othere partners would only say that the only game in town would be the , including the job we are not doing, this would not be correct and this would probably be preparing the next big crisis. tom: what i love about your economics is you studied economics, you studied at the university of paris, and then you invented this phrase, "brutal and unwelcome moves." can european banking survive these brutal and unwelcome
5:35 am
moves? can they clear their markets given the chronic nature of negative interest rates? all, theet: first of circumstances are absolutely exceptional. inflation is low and is negative in some situations. abnormal normal -- situation in which we are plunged. in switzerland, also in sweden, also in japan. these are extraordinary circumstances. we have to get out of that. it has a knot of negative influence -- a lot of negative
5:36 am
influence on many sectors and markets. it is not the fault of the central banks. in my opinion, it is because the central banks are doing what they have to do in the circumstances, taking into account that the others are not doing their jobs. tom: we are only quoting french economist out of respect for you. one had the courage to ask for reflation a number of years ago. do you have an optimism that japan or europe can reflate their economies? mr. trichet: they have to do that. it is exactly what the central bank is trying to do. very fortunately, we have a definition of price stability which is an inflation of 2% now. so, all the big, advanced economies have the same definition of price stability.
5:37 am
i was very much in agreement that we should have a level of inflation which would avoid deflation. i'm not sure i would follow him on the 4% definition. i'm very happy that we have a 2% definition of price stability, but we have to deliver. is not a little job of the central banks. tom: can you support chair yellen in her desire to overshoot and have a more sustained inflation as we go into the next decade? saytrichet: well, let me that if we could go back to 2% and also late around 2% -- 2%, it wouldund already be a big success in japan and europe. we will see what happens afterward, but nobody can suggest that the central banks are not doing all they can to push up inflation.
5:38 am
it is particularly clear in the case of japan and the ecb. francine: our markets overall distorted -- are markets overall distorted? mr. trichet: could you repeat? francine: our markets distorted because of central-bank activity? mr. trichet: i think there is no doubt, of course, that even if ,hat is being done is necessary taking into account the exceptional circumstances in which we still are and we are still in a situation which is extremely abnormal, but it has that arendary effects not at all appropriate and not at all positive, including re-creation of some bubbles in the segments of the market, distortion in the markets -- that is absolutely obvious and the reason why the ecb, as well as the other central banks are right to be very blunt on their
5:39 am
messages to the other partners. again, it is clear that if they don't do their job, the central ,anks are doing what they can but there a secondary effects. that is absolutely clear. francine: where do you see the biggest bubbles? look athet: again, if i what is not done by the various countries concerned, i would say structural reforms are absolutely of the essence in all countries on the one hand and the appropriate macroeconomic policies have also to be delivered in all countries, including in the countries that have room for maneuvering capacity to have foster much more domestic demand. we have a lot of hard work to be done by all.
5:40 am
as far as central banks are concerned, they are trying to do with they can. of course, all what they do in these circumstances, which are created by the other partners -- they also have negative consequences in the longer term. tom: i sat in our london news bureau with you on thinking eight years ago, you and i talked about the adjacency of isions in europe -- what your prescription for the swiss national bank? mr. jordan seems very lonely. he is dealing with massive capital flows. some would suggest irresponsibility by his adjacent nations. what is the correct prescription you would give? , it ischet: first of all a very good example.
5:41 am
the current account surplus of switzerland is around 15% of the gdp. the current account of the isted states is new -- numeral -2%. 15%. , it is enormous. bank inthat the central switzerland is doing all what they can. they took a very bold decisions in the past. the came back to abandoning eg and have evolved on negative rates. it is clear. with all of the negative aspects, i imagine, but the problem is plus 15%. it creates --
5:42 am
is korea the next switzerland? is south korea, with that surprise put yesterday, is south korea the next switzerland because of their massive surplus? mr. trichet: it has to be looked very carefully. i would not say that south korea is in the situation of switzerland, both in terms of current account surplus, as i already said, and in terms of long-term confidence of the investors and savers. it seems to me that switzerland has acquired a position, in terms of global confidence. clear that we are in a world which is performing
5:43 am
abnormal and it is a problem for all industrialized countries, first, but all emerging countries, like south korea, that are fantastically prosperous, obviously. we all have to get back to a normal level of inflation. that is not only the job of the central bank. it is the job of all partners. i insist on that. tom: we insist that you stay with us. we are going to come back and consider a vote in the united kingdom on june 23. markets are stable. futures are -12. ♪

5:45 am
tom: good morning, worldwide,
5:46 am
everyone let's get right back to mr. tree mr. jean-claude trichet. how will france, your france, react to a brexit from the united kingdom? well, first of all, let me say that i hope very profoundly that we won't have a brexit because it would be a catastrophe for the u.k. puts even into question the integrity of the u.k., the flag, the union jack, if scotland decides to stay. it is an immense problem for the u.k., in my opinion. the prime minister is absolutely right to stress the importance to say yes to staying, two remaining in the european union. know, france, as well as
5:47 am
all the others, asking the u.k. tuesday, they are unanimous in welcoming the u.k. in the european union, which is very different from the period we have known in the past. general de gaulle was not welcoming the u.k. we have welcomed the u.k. for many, many reasons, including the fact that the values of the united kingdom, in terms of dedication to democracy, in terms of dedication to market ,conomics, in terms of values in terms of global influence -- all this is a positive heart of the assets -- part of the assets from the european union seen from the continent. francine: how should central banks view the referendum and the possible shocks or volatility that happen? we have the boj, the fed, and the boe meeting before. thatrichet: well, i think
5:48 am
as is the case when there is an event which is preannounced and witches extraordinarily uncertain -- which is extraordinarily uncertain, i would expect all central banks, as they did very well in the past, and the very unfortunate , i expect they are in constant contact and that they have the appropriate means to take into account the situation, in terms of the decision of the british people and, of course, all the possibilities to cope with a situation which might be very, very volatile. i have confidence in the capacity of the global central banks, not only the central banks of the advanced economies, but all of the central banks, including the central banks of china and india, of course.
5:49 am
i hope very much that the response is, yes, we stayed. francine: talking about all the central banks in the world, who has the most difficult job right now? yes.richet: i'm sorry. yes? i was asking you who has the most difficult job of the governors? mr. trichet: oh yes, i'm sorry. they all have a very difficult job, obviously. get it to be launched. it is not yet launched. the fiscal problems are dramatic. i would say mark carney has the brexit ahead of him and it is really one of the worst possible situations, i have to say.
5:50 am
if the people in the u.k. say we want to leave, it would be dreadful. i would say the ecb has a lot of problems, that is obvious. and janet has also to cope with a situation which is obviously difficult because, again, the normal functioning of the economies of the u.s. and the others, if there was not accommodating policies, if the $4 trillion were not still in the balance sheet of the fed, then the counterfactual would probably be very bad. you see all central bankers in the world -- but mark has the worst difficult job in the weeks to come. tom: i like that. governor carney has some challenges ahead. jean-claude trichet, thank you so much from paris. you will see the interview out across all of bloomberg digital in a bit, as well. stephen gallo is with us.

"surveillance." we were talking with jean-claude trichet. let's get back to stephen gallo. ,hen you listen to mr. trichet he says that you would not say that monetary policy has reached the limit, but he was wary about structural reforms and fiscal spending. stephen: he said monetary policy should not be the only game in town. unfortunately, for markets, it is. central banks continue to fight fires, whether those fires are weak domestic growth potential or volatile capital flows. personally, i don't see the cycle breaking anytime soon. francine: i wanted to go back to some of the terms on volatility we saw a earlier on. you said you would have missed this trade. what is your favorite play right now? stephen: one of the things you might want to look at is buying euro vol.
5:55 am
the euro should fluctuate on the day of the results. the euro should eventually suffer. you should see a pickup in vol. liquidity premium should be inflicted in the implied volatility curve, but compared fourerling, implied vol euro is cheap at these levels. it could increase a bit in the next couple of weeks, relative to the referendum. tom: as we see yields drive slower -- lower, is there a point where there is instability or are these smooth curves to whenever lower yield? -- an ever-lower yield? stephen: i'm worried about the exit from these policies or if something happens in the global economic picture which causes a reversal of yields. before -- there
5:56 am
taper tantrum. we've seen significant spikes in euro area yields before. i think the exit -- i anticipate that the ecb will edge toward removing some of its negative deposit rates over the next 12 months to protect eurozone banks -- that is going to be a difficult act to pull off when you have bond prices doing what they are doing. tom: this has been wonderful. thank you for your patience, stephen gallo. love your gravity model. let's get that out more visible. stephen gallo. we are going to drive forward this conversation and bring you to the u.s. economy, as well. john silvia joins us. another hour of "bloomberg surveillance." ♪

how disruptive that is to the , if he can runm a general election campaign on that little amount of money, that will be disruptive in cycles ahead. tom: i was talking with one of my interns and he pointed out that the courts have written about the gop -- it is trump less. here is the gop website. they've got mrs. clinton up here . this is hatred for hillary. i get it. this is john silvia's coffee cup from 1982.
