alix steel is off. ♪ u.s. stocks closing higher. joe: the question is "what'd you miss?" whiplashhe market analyst ist, why one paying attention to gold and silver. joe: emerging markets had a great first half, could brexit ata game changer? >> we look what the u.k. vote means for the federal reserve's timeline for interest rates. we began on this friday with our market minutes. , the bestet averages week for the s&p 500 since july 2015. we saw selling last week after that u.k. referendum, but a big bounce back this week. joe: to say the least.
4:01 pm
an incredible, breathtaking bounceback. >> briggs it came and went. -- brexit came and went. some interesting moves i wanted to check out. banks are one of the biggest parts of the market to pay attention to as we assess the fallout. solid day yesterday, a little down today, also down in bank of america, but most everyone did well with the stress tests. these banks did solidly on a week as everyone is looking at the financials. the entire banking complex was up on the week, very solid. , one of thetime laggards in the market in the materials group, up a little bit today, but overall only up six
4:02 pm
tens of 1% on the week with some pretty big losses in the fertilizer and chemical companies, including dupont. joe: let's talk about the government bond market. yields just keep going down. u.s. 30 year yield hitting new lows. year isd on the 30 where the 10 year yield was at the end of december. i'm going to talk about currency. i'm going to talk about the russian ruble. there is a look at the change. the russian currency extending its biggest weekly advance in two months. the emerging markets becoming something of a benefit after that vote. oil stabilizing helped out the russian economy. sanctions against russia because of ukraine,
4:03 pm
russia is somewhat immune to the u.k., so all that volatility impacting other markets this week not impacting russia as much. you can see the ruble rallying as a result. the precious metals had a good week, gold and silver doing well. there is a one-week chart of day, upally strong last 2% on the week. .ilver also doing well look at that. 11% on the week. i did not realize it was that big. a huge move for silver. there you go. >> that is a look at today's market minutes. let's take a deep dive into the bloomberg. is: one of the stories dropping yields. people think it will be a long time before the fed hikes, but the economic data in the u.s.
4:04 pm
economy not that bad. mere is a chart of the is manufacturing report and the chicago pmi. i have a going back to the mid-1980's. those red vertical bars are recessions. and they have been around the 50 line or below or going down. we are above the 50 line in all these indices. none of them are going down. if you are worried about a recession, this chart says you should not be. if you think it will be forever before another fed hike, perhaps that assumption should not be taken so lightly. >> got to have some perspective. i'm looking how oil bulls need to look out. check out this chart. looking at the chinese strategic petroleum reserve, a big move up. chinese crude imports have risen , rivaling the u.s.
4:05 pm
as the biggest oil purchaser. they built up their reserve so much that it has given some support to the energy markets. you wonder about what that means going forward if they are not a catalyst. it is something to keep an i on. that is a big move. >> joe, your chart got a lot of callers. i'm to take both of those charts, looking at correlations. this is pretty crazy, but stay with me. it is important for anyone in the stock market. this is looking at different asset correlations with the s&p 500. white is oil and stocks. blue is the u.s. dollar. orange is the yen. you had high correlations across asset classes. if we are high on the positive
4:06 pm
that will show you the correlation is strong between those assets. fulcrum whereee a those correlations were breaking down, getting closer to zero, meaning things are moving independently of each other. that is good for someone trying to find yields, but guess what? brexit blue that out of the water. that has made it so hard for hedge fund guys and traders. joe: it is such a macro event. that night of the vote you saw all those correlations blowout. you can see all those charts and more on twitter. today's talk about trade in the week over all. we have three charts you cannot miss heading into the holiday weekend. look at all, take a what happened over this week.
4:07 pm
do you are charts change a lot as a result of what happened? >> they don't. is ar world, the news byproduct of what prices are already telling us. we are more price-sensitive and less new sensitive. response this week out of gold and silver was in fact. silver up 11%. that was a meaningful breakout in sober. gold continues to consolidate above 1300. what i think is most interesting about briggs it is that the trends that were in place before remain the trends in place after brexit. gold and silver was gold going in and coming out. i think that continues. 1450 has been our goal target all year, and we are sticking with that. >> i heard people saying silver is the place to be relative to gold. given the move, do you think that stands? >> i do.
4:08 pm
silver is about beta. it had gotten too stretched in favor of gold. that is now reverting back to silver. you want to seize over going up if you are a gold bull. i like the fact that silver is leading us here. we have seen this incredible rally. how much of the market is participating? >> on yesterday's move, 20% of the s&p made a 52 week high. when you start to look into that number, where those new highs ts, utilities, staples. a very unusual leadership framework. it is easy to want to extrapolate in terms of what that may mean for global growth. we don't want to play that game. the post-brexit
4:09 pm
trends are similar to the pre-brexit trends. other words, people are excited about the boring stuff in ways we have not seen. >> it is liquidity that drives equity prices. the curve has not changed from last friday. the curve was 85 basis points. it is 85 right now. if are going to look for a shift in leadership, we would expect the curve to steep in. stick with staples, utilities, and reits. >> i guess talked about this being a liquidity driven market, not on fundamentals. does that trip you up? >> it doesn't. believer that it is liquidity that drive stock prices in all environments, so perhaps that is more pronounced at the current juncture than other times. financials continue to get
4:10 pm
beaten down, still not doing well for the year. what do you see when you look at financials? >> i am a seller of these rallies. below recentl well highs, even while the market makes a new high. we look at that as a show of weakness. deutsche bank made new lows yesterday. we think it is a problem. to thiskeep coming up level of around 2100 over and over again. it looks like we will break out, then we get slammed back down. are we going to break through? how high could we go on the s&p? >> july tends to be a good month for stocks, earnings tend to be decent. i think that is enough to get us through 2135, but i want to be mindful that august, september, and october tend to be far less forgiving and kind.
4:11 pm
a rally is an opportunity to sell into strength as opposed to chasing strakes -- strength. >> what do you see when you look at transports? >> it is a group diverting from the broader strength of the market. the transports are not near recent highs. the rally and transports the last several days has been more tepid compared to other pockets of the market. on my list of concerns that we need to pay attention to in context of the longer-term picture. joe: thank you for joining us. up, we take a look at it emerging markets. brexit turning out to be what emerging-market investors have been waiting for. why they are outperforming their risk peers. this is bloomberg. ♪

on the dow and s&p 500. each of those major equity averages up 3.2%. the s&p 500 having its best week since february. >> increases across the board everywhere. joe: "what'd you miss?" three charts that illustrate why the fed is in wait and see mode. we saw some extraordinary stuff in the aftermath of that drags it vote. what you watching? -- that brexit vote. would you watching? increasingly it looks like markets are pricing in higher i over of a fed rate cut the longer term.
4:34 pm
break down the slope of the yield curve into different verbal's the probability of a rate cut, rate hike, and staying on hold. are coming down our because those rate cut probabilities are going up. been an interesting development. it is not something you see it in a tightening cycle, especially at the onset of the cycle. it is more like an end of cycle development. >> a lot of people were being nextarians, saying the move will be lower. does this validate those people at all, those views? >> i think it does. if you look at the data. at liftoff in december when the fed first raise rates, there was a 20% probability that the fed would be back at zero by the end
4:35 pm
of 2018. you can see that here. that was the blue line. the white line shows where we are now. a 40%is almost probability that the fed is back at zero by 2018. that is an astounding development. it explains why yields have come down so much. know fed fund futures can be sensitive and driven by what is going on in the macro environment. this could change again. even if i look at the probability of a cut, it was 13%, 14% off of the brexit vote. they are very sensitive. >> absolutely. given everything going on, there is a lot of uncertainty out there. good thing is that the u.s. consumer remains really strong. this chart shows that in the first quarter, we just got new data on this, the percentage of personal income that consumers have left over after spending on
4:36 pm
food, energy, and debt payments hit an all-time high, on the 75% , so that is really good news. we got some weak auto sales data today, but this reinforces the idea that the consumer does have the capacity to spend going forward. there iisposable cash guess, what does that look like when we put it against inflation. is that a potential rollover if prices get higher? have seen signs that wages are taking up, but also you are are absolutely right, the price of gas fell so much and so there is a lot more money left over in consumers pockets to spend on other things. of inflation, another thing you have been tracking are options that pay out in the event of deflation happening. explain what these instruments are and what they are saying. >> they pay out in the event that inflation is negative over a specified time frame out to 10
4:37 pm
years. with that.contrast we are seeing a higher probability of rate cuts, but a lower probability of deflation priced into the market since liftoff. that is an interesting contrast good you would think the two go together, but it is really not. clear why that is, but it could be that in december oil was still sliding so we had these elevated probabilities of deflation. it is interesting that they have not gone up much, but the rate cut probabilities have. joe: besides oil, other fundamental factors are going towards inflation, wages are rising, generally trending up. other measures of inflation trending higher. the something happen to give here, no inflation, no hikes until 2018, where as other things you look at say the fundamentals might justify it? >> a lot hinges on the jobs report next week.
4:38 pm
another thing that has impacted market pricing was the last jobs report. wewe get a good jobs report, will talk about the fed hiking this year pretty soon. it will be an to see how that plays out next friday. of other macro issues, central bankers are looking at that. beyond brexit, is in china to keep a watch on? >> china is a big concern. there were news reports that they are going to devalue their currency a bit more towards the end of the year. japan is looking really weak right now, and so there is a question as to what the boj will do. those are top of mind issues right now. i want to go back to that jobs report. we have the june jobs report next friday. one thing that seems dry can is how that jobs report only change the tone of everything. the fed was sounding hawkish, people were talking about a real possibility of a hike in one of
4:39 pm
the summer meetings, and that one report seems to have changed all kinds of stuff from the markets to the tone of central bankers. weak number,eally and we got revisions to previous months that made it look more like a downward trend rather than a one-off. that was caused for concern. you put it against this backdrop of uncertainty and it gives you a reason to stay put and not raise rates, and so that is deftly a key thing they will need to see improve before we are talking about rate hikes again, but it may happen very soon. joe: it will be fun to watch that. thank you for coming on. >> up next, what is the outlook to treat and its drug cancer. we will hear from the chairman and ceo, up next. this is bloomberg. ♪
4:42 pm
>> it is time for the bloomberg is this flesh. -- business flash. planning to sell assets according to people familiar with the matter. they want to calm regulatory concerns over the takeover of humana. aetna once to reduce overlap between the companies. ups pilots would receive a 29% raise over five years in a new proposed contract. that is according to bloomberg. pilots would receive an initial raise followed by an annual 3% increase. ups and the independent pilots association say they have reached a tentative agreement.
4:43 pm
berkshire hathaway seeking to expand wells fargo. 10%ings have hit the threshold, which requires regulatory review. warren buffett does not have a specific transaction in mind. that is your bloomberg business flash. joe: "what'd you miss?" focus on pharma week. we talked with the merck chairman and ceo kenneth frazier about the latest advances in treating cancer. >> it has been something that looked -- people have looked at entering the about for many years. they allow the body zone defenses to attack and defeat tumors, so we have been studying 30 different tumor types in more than 300 studies. the date is one of the first agents that has the promise of being a broad-spectrum agent across many different kinds of cancer it. this have the potential
4:44 pm
to replace chemotherapy? >> it does. an important subset of lung cancer patients against chemotherapy. chemotherapy, while it has benefits, also has tremendous side effects. what that study showed is that if you compare the population, with respectbetter to providing protection against progression of cancer, and more importantly, overall survival, so now you have a drug that has many fewer side effects that is much more effective for an important subset of lung cancer patients. that is revolutionary. >> can you give us a sense of an arc of a drug like this. 30 different tumors testing, 300 different studies. when did you start this? how far are you along in that process? >> we have gotten to market three and a half years after the
4:45 pm
first does. the thing about this medicine is that we could immediately see its impact on tumors, and so we are rushing to try to get this drug to as many people. we have to study it tumor by toomer. >> which tumors have you got clearance for. >> melanoma and second line non-small lung cancer. we are looking at first line in lung cancer. we are looking at head and neck. we are looking at classical non-hodgkin's lymphoma. we are looking at bladder cancer. we will have many filings over the next year. >> how big could this be in terms of the number people affected with cancer? >> i think it is hard to say how high the ceiling is. we are trying to figure out which tumors it does not work in right now. we are very excited about the possibility that this could be a broad-spectrum agent against many different malignancies. sense ofs some rough
4:46 pm
the investment required. how much roughly do you invest in order to get to market with a drug like this question mark > --? >> out-of-pocket, it has to be $2 billion this year. $2 billion? that is quite an investment. >> it really is. he gets to the point that we have to have a serious conversation in this country about the health care system. >> let's talk about that. would a dosage cost if i had cancer and it was approved for that. how much does it cause the patient or their health care company? >> the list price is $125,000 an year for melanoma. >> $125,000 a year? yes, if you have it administered in the hospital, it will cost you more. that is the list price. then there are rebates that are negotiated by the payers who we work with, the managed-care
4:47 pm
providers. >> how can our society deal with that issue? a promising drug that can save lives and transform lives. hand, 17% of our gdp as a country is going to health care. trees can't grow to the sky. at what point do we say we cannot afford that much? >> let me make a point about health care expenditures. everyone realizes that there is a significant amount of waste in the system. we have to figure out how to get the waste out of the system. this drug will do something that nothing has ever done before, save many lives in a particular way. i think the debate about health care today is polarizing. i think it falsely pits all pharmaceutical companies against society. society needs these drugs. the reality of the world is that if we don't have a sufficient return on investment, we will not get the significant capital that we need to put up for
4:48 pm
4:50 pm
4:51 pm
i asked the question earlier today. >> expanding the assets they could purchase was inevitable. then you have this flight to safety. euro area is getting better, but they will have to tinker with the asset purchases going forward. we still don't know what the impact will have on the rest of the world. the impact is obvious in the u.k. we think it will be minimal outside the u.k., but time will tell. >> we have been talking so much about the u.k., brexit, and the european union. we are now seeing pmi falling to 50. expandinging is still . what a using there? >> i was recently in china. one of the concerns we have is that there has been a surprising
4:52 pm
amount -- a lot of monetary easing in china going on behind the scenes. what is worrying is that you expect growth to rise with this monetary easing, but what we have been seeing is growth not rising, but stabilizing. when you look out through the rest of the year, you will probably have to have more easing. will be chinese economy stable, but only because they have to do more easing and growth will end the year slightly above 6.5% on the back of it. showinge this chart small chinese companies are weakening as opposed to larger companies supported by the government. is it backtracking now? going into government spending and the state owned enterprises? >> the underlying trend is that as they have been ramping up easing, it is supporting industries, large state owned enterprises, housing,
4:53 pm
construction, heavy manufacturing. it has been going to support the wrong areas, at least in terms of the rebalancing agenda. that is troublesome. how quickly can on they can do this and increases risks for the future. you have seen housing come back up, the state owned enterprises are getting funding, credit they are further levering the chinese economy in the wrong places. the sectors that could do more with credit are not getting the sector. they know they can go there and get the growth. optimisticople too about china's ability to change its growth model? they talk about economic reform and weaning off industries with overcapacity, but you say it does not sound like it is happening. people are took optimistic. i think they have the timeline
4:54 pm
wrong. i think what is happening is a step backwards. the needle, thread right? you need to deliver heavy manufacturing sectors, where you have too much capacity, and at the same time, shift credit and make sure small companies with good ideas are getting funding. you will get productivity growth and job growth and wage growth. deleveraging reducing overcapacity means people will have to lose their jobs in some sectors. >> let's tie this all together. when it comes to central-bank action, the extent of coordination with all the different announcements pledging to add liquidity into the financial system should it be does the ecb how and bank of england's actions constrain or limit china's next move in any way? a close eyekeeping on the dollar. if the dollar is appreciating substantially, you see yuan
4:55 pm
weakness. of course there are other fundamental connections, but how will the fed react, how will the dollar react? -- a see a strong appreciation of the dollar, they talk about moving to a basket of currencies in dividing the yuan, if you see a sharp rise in the dollar, that transition will happen sooner. joe: coming up, what you need to know to gear up for next week. this is bloomberg. ♪
