>> the bank has been doing damage control on capitol hill. number of a executives, including tim sloan who is the bank's president to meet with lawmakers and staff. to explain and to give an overview of their investigation. what they did to remedy this. it is interesting. if wells fargo has a much smaller presence in washington than some of the other big thanks. they have tried to craft an image over the past few years even as the bank has grown to be one of the worlds biggest. to maintain this sort of small community hometown bank feel. it sort of backfired this week. first and foremost, the firms that they had in staff, here to help them, it's much smaller. they have definitely been overwhelmed, per se, about the level of congressional districts missed.

abouto raised questions one of the ways that we try to distinguish themselves, focusing on specific businesses. differentiating themselves, a us-based focus bank, they aren't as big and investment banking order evidence. something that has traditionally been risky like a derivatives training. it is not helping them at all this week. david: you'll be hearing testimony and they will appear before the senate banking committee. than 2 million unauthorized

why do we tend to see this? people are going back to work and back to school. what are some of the reasons behind this typical return to volatility? >> one is seasonal affective disorder. believe it or not. nos thursday is the at him equinox. less light during the day and a relationship between that and an increase in risk aversion. we have had many financial market shocks. >> we will see what the risk aversion trade looks like come wednesday. with this sort of movement into the fall, we get retailers to try to create events. single day. still a month and a half away.

>> one catalyst we are looking at. it is up about 70% from the february lows. stock and we characterize those earnings as stellar. it is about much improved monetization. the price to average consensus price target has moved up about 10%. a lot of momentum in this story. said, singles day where last year, they sold almost $15 billion in merchandise in a single day. there is some interesting seasonality there. volatility tending to be higher. what is happening with september into the singles event.

david: from bloomberg headquarters. let's get your check on the headlines.

we go to mark crumpton for the details. mark: the ambassador accusing the islamic militant group of the diverging international aid to its terror infrastructure. called on the un's to create a way to and the practice. he says how mosses infiltrating humanitarian organizations in gaza. and using operatives to divert funds. there has been no response yet from hamas. bodiesrs recover 18 after a heavily loaded boat sank in a river over the weekend. a dozen others are missing. it was carrying more than 100 muslims on holidays. chris christie, his top allies were involved in a plan to divert traffic new the george washington bridge to punish a local mayor that did not back his reelection.

2600 analysts in 120 countries. matt, can you keep up with mr. johnson? matt: i will do my best with your help, mark crumpton. the nasdaq where abigail doolittle has the latest. abigail: the big story is the return to volatility. the last six trading sessions. that, the worst week since february. on an intraday basis. still down slightly right now, but again, behind a lot of this action is apple. shares have been higher in the morning. they turn sharply lower. it was premature.

it could be consolidation. they had the best week in five years. could be consolidating the 11% move. 33 -- 3641, excuse me. this is a longer chart. pointing to the recent spikes higher, none compares to last week's parabolic move. the important thing is that stock is well above the down trend of the last year or so. that is bullish. ,ven if the stock drops a bit it can be positioned bullishly. that helped explain why it has been volatile today, but who have been the perpetual winners?

>> the stock is up for its best pace. dystrophy drug did receive accelerated approval from the fda. this is a big relief concerning that the drug had been early this year. not so pleasing to the investors, part of the 33% bearish short interest, for sure. they had shares of the equipment maker. they see some good stuff. anders could be moved up what is probably most impressive , this stock is up 62% this year. the bloomberg intelligence analyst told the team recently that it has a lot to do with intel not going with the newer chip design. and this momentum is likely to continue. matt: thanks for a much. joe: markets are bracing for key

.olicy decision they largely ruled out the federal reserve hike ends of temper and economists are split if the bank of japan will boost stimulus. called money, the art of living. he manages an investment in london. thank you for joining us from london. this week. a recent backup. we have the fed and the boj decision. >> it is a fascinating time and monetary policy. i am less focused on the specifics of the decisions, but i am more interested in the broader context. we are entering the endgame. and it is very unclear what the bank of japan is going to do.

is, wet i mean by that plausibly exhausted conventional tools. or the lower interest rates, we have exhausted those because we're starting to see the negative consequences from them. i feel like i have been hearing hedge fund managers with the endgame for a long time in regards to monetary and fiscal policy. what, specifically, is different right now with the bank of japan that, in your view makes it a pivotal moment to watch? >> may be the easiest way to think about that is i don't know what good news is. in the past, from a risk standpoint, if you had a monetary policy meeting, you knew what easing looked like and what good news for the market was.

it was maybe more quantitative easing. we have reached a point in the japanese case. the first quarter move to negative interest rates. a lot of market reaction is what you associate with monetary tightening. when i say the endgame, we have of what haspoint become the conventional tools of monetary policy. they're having detrimental side effects. the side effects mean that not only are banks under pressure, but you have the elderly, which is politically influential, rebelling against the effects of that. what does that mean for the ability to surprise? it seems to have been a tool in the policy toolkit. >> you are absolutely right. one of the key point is not only is this damaging for the banking sector. one has to stand back and say that if share prices are falling

, it's not a sign of economic health. the fact that the policy measures are starting to become very negative for banks, it is undoubtedly a concern. clear that lower interest rates here are stimulating consumption. they may be increasing the desire to save. you could be getting the opposite effects that you aim to achieve. into thented to go bloomberg row quick, i have a chart showing the nikkei index. it relates to negative earlier this year. you see the steep falloff in bank prices right after that. banks are getting pummeled. they will have to try to get

back to some sort of policy, right? >> this is what is fascinating about it. they are in a bind and it's not clear that the current tools are going to work. the early success that they had was largely in exchange rate effect but they haven't boosted domestic consumption on a sustainable basis. he is now in a fix where it's not at all obvious that if he accelerates qe, that he has any better chance of obtaining his objectives. matt: how about mario draghi? they are not achieving the results that they want, right? they are not able to boost inflation or even cut their normally thest? fiscal authority.

>> they can't do that. that's the problem. this pertains to the fed as well. the asset price response of monetary -- this is causing them a problem. have already seen two events that are really not events causing significant asset price volatility. the bank of japan said we will review the monetary policy and you settle for the long end of the curve which is a pretty brutal price move. mario draghi does nothing and you saw asset price response. the debate was happening in jackson hole. what is plan b? are there other things we can do? i think we have to be pressed on

this issue and we have to start seeing answers. drops, it's helicopter buying equity, fiscal monetary coordination. this issue just has to be addressed. scarlet: we will talk more about the search for yield and near zero bound rate environment. it running us from london. this is bloomberg. ♪

scarlet: this is bloomberg markets. it's time for the bloomberg business flash. a look at the biggest stories in

wondering where they can make their money safely and where they can get more yield. do you believe in this starvation for yield? >> there is a real challenge for savers inking about retirement and people using rules of thumb. they want a reasonable level of income. this is a challenge for pension funds and right at the heart of what is happening in markets currently. and there is doubt that there's a big charge. yield characterization is not the best way to describe what is going on. a big part of what we are seeing should be characterized as volatility of version?

>> if you take the two extremes, and you think you have cash at one end and you have equities at if you imagine a , it is almost designed to lose money where there is an almost certain loss. about 20% or 30% losses. it you have no volatility. if you look at the global equity market, you are getting very reasonable implied real returns. you've got to live with the degree of seat -- sleepless nights. one of the most striking characteristics of markets at the moment is the price you will .ay

it is considerable. >> how do you guard against that. >> i think people have to be we haveto embrace it evidence like the flash crash by the spread of what i would say is conventional risk management. has created this kind of obsession with obtaining volatility. a fact of life that if you want to generate returns, you have to tolerate volatility. >> we saw this this year. pouring into strategies that they perceived to be safer. you think that there are

opportunities embracing the volatility nobody wants? think one has to be very careful because we are at one of those junctures. we have a real change in the interest rate. may wellstrategies just be a sample bias. have proven,ou statistically, that a strategy works, it's often the most dangerous time for that strategy. i would urge a lot of caution. if you look at valuations have volatility if you want to generate returns. joe: how much is a function of essentially postcrisis scars? stuffw much of that other is hurting people?

>> i think it is probably a combination of both. if you have been a global equity era,tor, the post tnt you've had a very volatile path of return. you had the worst returns when you need it the most. equities have performed very poorly. the experience has been much more pleasant. beenost crisis regime has one where, because of central bank policies like forward guidance and qe, you get this kind of amplified asset price volatility in response to what are really tiny changes. matt: we have had times in the recent past where they are not willing to wait through volatility and they pull their money out. you have to be willing to put your money on the line.

>> we run multi-asset firms as well. investors in the funds that we run and they are all aligned. if you think of the history of hedge funds, you talked with soros or jones, those guys had huge volatility. they try to contain drawdown but they have big volatility. i think there has been kind of a created which is largely the accident of the correlation between equity that says you can have those equity returns without the volatility. that is a pipe dream. fascinating stuff, really appreciate you coming on. is not the only

broad-based. because you have the 1% gain in the ratio, we will look at apple. , it's across the board for all of tech stocks. looking at the fact that market expectations for shows thees, this number of fed hikes that are expected over the next five years. back in december, the market was pricing seven hikes and we had the really volatile january and february. important.y let's say we get another bout of volatility. that can't keep coming down. it is down to three and could go down to two or one or zero. they are running out of implied forward cuts to defective oez in the event of another bout of volatility.

this is a sign it is gone. the decisions of other central banks, i have been going through a number of signals today that show you the market doesn't really know what is going to happen with the bank of japan and, to some extent, with the fed. thought we knew with more visibility what was going to happen this year. and back then, volatility and emerging-market currencies fell to a one-year low. now we are shooting up again. outcome is a bit certain now. the volatility in emerging-market currencies.
