9:15 pm
rishaad: we have heard the last word from the fed before. next week's big policy decision, traders are looking for clues in a potential rate hike. dennis lockhart says he wants to encourage further discussion about a rate increase. notwithstanding a few recent week monthly reports from the institute for supply management, for example, i am satisfied at this point that conditions warrant that serious discussion. rishaad: the message from the fed governor is they will proceed with caution. she said while the economy is making gradual progress, the bank should not jump to tighten. effecthe extent that the on inflation of further gradual tightening and labor market conditions is likely to be moderate and gradual, the case to tighten policy preemptively is less compelling. spokespersonrgan's
9:16 pm
says the u.s. economy is strong enough, and the time to raise rates is now. >> the fed has to maintain credibility, and i think it is time to raise rates. normality is a good thing, not a bad thing. create an economy that has been going on like this for seven years is a good thing. to make, the return to normal is a good thing. gets much more psychological attention than the actual economic effect of raising rates. guest says, next regardless of the timing, the rate hikes may be shallower than previously forecasted. ats is head of investments the singapore bank. what are you making of this commentary? fedur view at city is the will hold off on raising rates at its september meeting next week, as the dogs on the committee wait for more assurance that the u.s. economic
9:17 pm
recovery is on track. notwithstanding the more hawkish comments from some members of the fed, including vice chairman fisher and chair janet yellen. is, whatthe thing happens after? this whole debate will resume again. how the markets behave themselves? >> i think essentially what the fed governors are trying to do is talk up the possibility of a rate hike. they want to ensure they have the option audi -- option. at the same time, if one really to the full employment and gently rising inflation, we see that while we are almost there on full employment, at about 4.9%, the inflation picture is not strong enough to convince all members of the committee to move forward. therefore, we feel that december
9:18 pm
the committee will move forward with the second rate hike since the global financial crisis. probablythe election plays a role whether we like it you are not and do matter what they say, too. >> our view here at city is that the rate hike will go forward in december. however, that is contingent upon a hillary clinton victory. we feel that a clinton victory would afford the markets and regulators certainty and confidence about the path of policy going forward. where a trumpet victory would increase the uncertainty, and we feel that the fed would likely hold off on raising rates in december and the less likely scenario of a donald trump victory. trump, as you have mentioned earlier, -- you have got ak 65% chance that hillary clinton wins.
9:19 pm
if we get a doll trump presidency, you are talking about -- eight donald trump presidency, you are talking -- about global growth is shrinking. >> that is pretty soon if again. are reallytors that driving our views on the paring back of global growth in the event of a trump presidency are one, the significant policy uncertainty that a trump presidency would come with. we do not know exactly which policies donald trump will or will not and ask. at the same time, we do think that the chances of a global trade contraction are relatively high, given trump's discussion of challenging trade agreements, as well as his questioning imports from many trading partners. those factors we think will drive growth down and global growth down. rishaad: let's also have a look
9:20 pm
at the emerging markets side of things. we have had a lot of money move into this part of the world. are you seeing any of that peter and out -- petering out? >> the factions that have really driven the strength of the emerging market have been a weakening u.s. dollar, low yields, and a continuing belief that we will not see an increase in rates from the fed. therefore, we do think that will be slowing down. however, assuming the fed does hold off rating -- raising rates in september, and assuming the u.s. dollar does not significant re-strengthen, we do believe that emerging markets will continue to reform well. -- perform well. -- we haverket debt a positive view on emerging market debt across the board. rishaad: one of the reasons you have not been looking at the u.s. so much is the earnings.
9:21 pm
earnings should pick up at some stage. we are seeing lackluster performance by corporate. i suppose when they start picking up, that changes some of the evaluations in making them more attractive. >> exactly. at this stage, we really yet have to see the strong earnings growth that we would love to see from corporate's around the world. we have seen multiple expansion driving stocks upward. continued opene spaghetti of global central bank monetary policy driving monetary valuations upward. ofcontinued open spigot global central bank monetary policy driving monetary valuations upward. thanks for joining us. just got some breaking news coming through from the people's bank of china. market again,e injecting more liquidity into the system. 60 billion yuan at the moment.

big electronics retailers left standing in australia. if you take a look at jb hi-fi's august sales, they are up 11.7%. they are forecast to make 4.5 billion in sales for financial year 2017. dick'soval of dekes -- is definitely helping them there. they will have another 101 stores taking a total footprint to 295 stores. the plan is to expand both brands. we are going to see a lot more of these electronic stores in this side of the world. just minutes away from the start of the trading day in hong kong and shanghai. we are reversing the call that we saw on monday's session --

credit core group has hit a record high. provides credit services in australia. a record high coming to there. all looking pretty good on the market front, just having a quick look at the japanese yen. we did see that strong finish coming from the yen during our monday session. it is still strengthening, up by a quarter of 1%. morgan stanley saying it could get to 99 by years end. we are going to get back to samsung. really on the headlines for the wrong reasons. biggest loss of value pickup a scene in years. they're trying to take care of the note seven phone. what is the master plan here?
9:34 pm
>> right now they're thinking if partung could be of their -- a bigger part of the decision process. we are seeing the stock , more thanstrongly 4% today. that is after plunging on the biggest two-day decline since 2008. remember, samsung has been declining since the release of the new iphone. on friday, it plunged as we got more information about the problems with the note seven. now we're hearing from u.s. authorities and samsung itself that the note seven, the battery, it could catch fire. than 2recall of more million phones could cost the company $1 billion. a bit of a rebound, a huge and iceman -- huge rebound. rishaad: that looks nasty,
9:35 pm
doesn't it? aviation authorities asking people not to use those phones on the plane, either. we are seeing samsung shares reacting to that plunging, rebounding. you have to put the whole problem into bigger context. if you compare samsung with the company itself, compared with other south korean for -- firms. look at at the pie chart. it was $186 billion after the $22 billion plunge any market value. right now, they're worth more than $190 billion with that rebound in its shares. still, put all those other korean forms -- firms combined, and their market value is still topping that. rishaad: it is also more than 50% of the helsinki main index. we have to remember samsung is not just about smartphones.
9:36 pm
there is also brand damage here, ultimately. >> and how far that brain damage could go and what that could mean for the south korean market. that drag down. that drags down the korean you on, which has been the best performer among major currencies in the last quarter. it is not just the problems that samsung, but also the nuclear test in north korea. we have samsung, we have north koreans, a possibility of another nuclear test, not to mention the possibility of a u.s. fed rate hike. states: the united should step up to attract investments from china despite
9:37 pm
legal resistance. commentslson, those contrast with donald trump's criticism of china. contrast, the report from henry paulson is titled demystifying chinese investment in the united states. it comes just two weeks before the first presidential debate. trade and foreign investment were expected to be topics. if trump takes office, he says he will label china a currency manipulator and will come down hard when it comes to that trade relationship. paulson says outbound investment will grow significantly over the next decade. unless the u.s. steps up and efforts, it will miss out on its fair share of that pie. he is also deeply concerned about what he calls this wave of protectionism sweeping the united states. he is planning out that foreign trade and cross-border
