ahead. kindis hard to handle this of shock. trade is likely to suffer and confidence is likely to suffer and that is something he may have to deal with even though he has pointed out that the european central bank cannot do everything alone. francine: this was also said by christine lagarde guest today. jobng, look, it is not the of monetary policy to do the heavy lifting. we were talking about a pretty brexit vote. of a coordinated action seemed extremely unlikely unless we get a violent, disorderly market. paul: my understanding is that of doinged action something would require a very severe situation and we are not quite at that point. it has been a coordinated statement to point out the liquidity measures already in
4:48 am
place. beyond that, each central bank will have to handle things as they see fit. market carney has already said he will do whatever is necessary to meet his liquidity and monetary goals and that should mean a rate cut in july but they are also betting on how many at the ecb has a 50% chance. they may be de-financing. zero. following negative. francine: paul gordon there, our central bank editor. more with chief european economist. i want to point our viewers to two things. first of all, the pound dropping. there you go. the european stuff. we will get pounds up in just a second. are you go, 133 51. we broke the news in the last half hour that the 10 year yields were below 1% -- 10% for
4:49 am
the first time ever. we have germany in white. and japan. can the 10 year u.k. gildan good measures? david: anything is possible. francine: that is a little bit frightening. david: yes, it is. at the end of the day, they could easily cut rates as has been discussed and others will cut rates as well. negative rates would go further into the territory. that means it would go more negative still and obviously, this may not need to widen. basically, it could carry on. stepine: let's take a that. the pound continues lower. to maybe not have found a floor but to stabilize a little bit as continues.al turmoil
4:50 am
yield goes out lower. more stimulus. what is the next crisis? issue with these incredibly low yields has to do with pension funds and so on. but also for companies to find better schemes sitting around them. these pension funds go off. very low rates. you know, this is the systemic issue. these low yields caused troubles. most countries are hoping to exit on this. but will the brexit dollars push this that? probably quite considerably. the other thing is they will be trying to put, i'm sure, pressure on germany and the country'ss, as of the most impacted at the moment. to do a fiscal response. trying to push these countries who are most impacted negatively by yields at the moment to spend more out and
4:51 am
money. so, you know, there will be pressure on germany and the netherlands to do that. you have a colony pound? david: it needs to weaken further. francine: how much further? david: going into the brexit decision, it fell 15% over a time. that would be seen as a reasonable figure. at the end of the day, it is very small. francine: what is the next level? david: 115. i'm hoping at that point it will stabilize. the stage rate for the u.k. is a hugely important adjustment mechanism. we saw in 2007 at 2008 and and 92. we sought. and in anyone. francine: very quickly, the pound, and not bad for exports but terrible for the current deficit? help the, it should current composition. this massive exit. crisis.estment income
