tv   Bloomberg Daybreak Americas  Bloomberg  October 27, 2016 7:00am-10:01am EDT

7:00 am
morning, and welcome to bloomberg daybreak on this hursday, october 27. futures up 20 points. switch up the board very quickly. the f.x. market, an upside surprise for u.k. g.d.p. the pound is trading at 122.60. bonds softer globally. 1.83 is the yield on the u.s. 10-year. david: ford motor company is announcing their third quarter earnings. their earnings per share were 24 cents, as opposed to an estimate of 20 cents. revenue of just under $36 billion as opposed to $34 billion estimate. so they beat estimates, but they are well off of a year ago for various reasons. we'll get into it with mark fields when we talk to him later in the program. alix: the real concern is are we at peak cars? you had the cycle that kicked in.
7:01 am
how much more new demand is there? david: exactly. mark fields has said he does think they've peaked. the sque what happens with the mix. how many cars they sell as posed to trucks, things like that. and mobility, he's trying to move forward. jonathan: that's the theme coming up. deutsche bank and barclays numbers crossing this morning. unexpectedly posted profits in the securities unit, reported a jump in revenue, while barclays posted 35% jumps in profit. for more on this, we bring in nick from frankfurt, and steven from london. nick, let's begin with you and run through the deutsche bank numbers quickly. nick: yes, we saw a real surprise on the debt trading figures, especially, a 14 cent rise. it's a much better result than we expected. we were down 8% on the estimates that we gathered. so clearly since they have been benefiting from what we saw in the wider markets, some of the concerns about them losing
7:02 am
their franchise were possibly unjustified, but nonetheless, i mean, in other businesses, in the equities business, wealth management, there was a lot of concern about deutsche bank, and they had outflows. they had poor performances because of this worry around the department of justice settlement and the huge storm that was raging around them in september and october. we heard from market sharing, the c.f.o., that liquidity has stabilized. it's back where it was, but it must be a pretty painful couple of weeks in which they speak to clients and reassure a lot of clients. alix: twitter is out with earnings, estimated both on the top and bottom line. the number that's really standing out is monthly active users coming in at 317 million, higher than last quarter and higher than estimates. the company planning to cut up to 9% of jobs. bloomberg reported earlier that perhaps they were going to cut about 300 jobs. that would be 8% of their workforce, but now we learn it's going to be about 9%.
7:03 am
those are the two big headlines. monthly active users coming in at 317 million, and cutting 9% of jobs. more on this later on in the hour. jonathan: bank to the banking story with steven morris in london. this could have been a bank on wall street. i'm looking at numbers that came out this morning, very, very similar to what we saw from the big investment banks in the united states a couple of weeks ago. steven: barclays is riding the same wave that its wall street peers have been over the last week or so, a 40% increase in fixed income trading, which is around what we were expecting actually. that's not the unexpected part of barclays results, but it certainly has helped offset some of the items on the other side of the line. for example, we're seeing another hundred pounds taken to compensate customers for a scandal that's almost a decade old now, selling payment protection insurance. they took a one billion hit on their pension liabilities, which was rumored to come through this month as well. but the investment bank is picking up its results and
7:04 am
starting to pull its own weight as opposed to the credit card and retail business, which is still reporting much, much better returns. jonathan: there might be a temptation to celebrate the revenue profit over at deutsche, but barclays really the story. we're talking about 40% pops everywhere else. strong underlying profit, higher revenues, lower cost, but this is rearview mirror stuff. we want visibility. a lot of people did not get it from the c.e.o. today, did they? nick: precisely. we heard how they may intensify and accelerate cost measures, how they're the last. but we really didn't get a whole lot of meat on the bone. we did hear there's a hiring freeze, and that's going to help on reducing head count. but still, people are looking for a bit more tangible evidence of the road forward here. and it's something the bank has come off of, really, until they get their legal settlements out
7:05 am
of the way. that's something happening this fiscal year, i.e., by early march, next year. jonathan: our bank reporter who will join us throughout this program,, nick and stephen, joining us. for more on the european lenders, let's bring in an analyst. great to have you with us on the program. for me, i look at the message from joe staley is the investment bank looks good, growth, taking market share. the only word, ambition, that i saw from john today was the ambition to accelerate head count cuts across the board. what does that say about the two positions of those banks right now? >> john has been fortunate in the third quarter that the rising tide that we saw has indeed helped deutsche bank. it is comforting they've not been impacted from a franchise erosion perspective bit news we saw over the quarter, but i think the challenge for deutsche bank and john cryan,
7:06 am
they laid out the business strategy as usual, business as usual. because there is the elephant in the room of the d.o.j. settlement. and until we know what those settlements play out, it is very hard to know how deutsche bank can react, because they have to think about what is the next step. is it that we have a $5 billion settlement that is manageable, and from that perspective, we can continue with the plan, broadly as outlined, with additional cost cutting, or are we facing a number that is multiples of that, in which case we have to seriously consider the possibility of asset management on the line, selling asset management is potentially capital enhancing and may address the capital, but it will be 25% e.p.s. diluted. so the range of outcomes for deutsche bank right now i would say is so broad, it's very, very hard for them to make an absolute call here, to say, yes, we can cut head count by x, but that's a billion dollars of the bottom line potentially.
7:07 am
but by the way, you're impacting a people business. that's very challenging, and that doesn't move the dial if the d.o.j. number is double digit. jonathan: the word i pick up from you is reaction. it's reaction, it's not proactive, and that's a difficult position to be in. >> david: exactly. this feels like a sailboat, where you take your hand off, and you say the d.o.j. is controlling this. the fact is you have to have some sort of strategy. even if it has to change in reaction to the d.o.j., you can still say this is the bank we're going to have. we have to change it depending what happens. but instead of that, just step back and say let the d.o.j. decide it, that's a very dangerous position for a c.e.o. >> i absolutely accept that observation, that concern that the market is having. but i think the reality is here that john cryan is playing a very complex game of chess. if he goes out and raises in the market, remember, he can't raise effectively half his market cap. if he raises not enough, then
7:08 am
we're in a serious position, and then the d.o.j. sees that the war chest is sitting out there, where he's in a very difficult position. i think it's very hard for him to stand up and announce i want to sell my asset management business, and you're not going to get a great price. so i think -- i give credit to john cryan, i think bees the best c.e.o. you could have. he's one of the best in terms of capital management, in terms of balance sheet management, liquidity management, and we saw that, strong numbers in deutsche bank. so knowing they're in a position where they have to just weather the storm. they are meeting their regulatory capital ratios, yes, there are triggers around maximum distributeable allowances available, distributeable, concern the market, for instance, but they have to live within the regulatory frame work for now, until they get that d.o.j. number, i think. alix: what we learned is that john cryan said he doesn't plan to raise capital. he didn't rule out i.p.o.'ing the asset management business, but nonetheless, he dent say what they were doing with it either. that put john cryan stuck in
7:09 am
the middle. he can't say what they're going to do, because the market might not respond. but he's saying he might have to back track, the credibility issue. barrington: i think you've also got to bear in mind where you're raising from. we have this situation across europe that there are a number of financial institutions that are either raising many multiples of the market cap or they're raising 100% of the market cap. and the reality is that deutsche bank can't do 100%. it's not feasibly -- it's not feasible in the short term. but the reality is that you need to try to tell a story that you can cut costs, you can deliver on your earnings, you can try to get the market cap from $10 billion to $14 billion, and from that point, you can then raise at some point in the future. but to try to do it at a distressed point, at the maximum point of paying, i think it's clearly what john cryan is not wanting to do. to his point, he'd rather not raise capital, he'd look asset sales. jonathan: barrington, thank you, sticking with us to talk about lenders. we'll focus on brexit soon. alix: twitter popping by about
7:10 am
-- where are we here? up in the premarket, 5%. here are the big numbers you need to know. yes, it beat on the top and bottom line. but it was monthly active users coming in at 37 million, better quarter on quarter and wound up beating estimates. the other big numbers you need to know is that twitter is not providing specific revenue guidance for the full year and the fourth quarter. it is also cutting up to 9% of jobs. it does say that it will add more syndication partners in the coming months, and it's going to reorganize its sales force, but not going to have any kind of guidance for the fourth quarter or the full year. in other movers as well, take a look at tesla. that came after the bell yesterday. big spike up, almost by 5%. it earned 71 cents a share. it was an enormous beat. the street was looking for a loss t. did also cut its full-year cap ex to $1.8 billion versus the previous over $2 billion. it's trying to control those costs, while delivering on sales. also taking a look here at groupon, wanted to highlight
7:11 am
this. this also came out yesterday, really interesting, now down by 9%. it is buying its rival, living social. he says that the groupon saying the amount of purchase is not material, but at one point living social was valued at about $6 billion. the street not buying the necessarily not material, and also raises questions in groupon's growth strategy. david: another company out with earnings this morning, ford. they came out with earnings that topped estimates, and they're in the green. we'll speak with the c.e.o. to get his take on the quarter, coming up in just a bit. next, britain defies the brexit bite again. the u.k. economy keeps its momentum with g.d.p. growing more than people thought it would. we'll debate what it means for the bank of england's plans for rates. that's next. ♪
7:12 am
7:13 am
7:14 am
alix: this is "bloomberg daybreak." officials weighing in on the impact of brexit on european banks. the u.k. trade minister said passporting, which allows london-based lenders and insurance companies to sell their services anywhere in the single market, is unlikely to continue after the u.k. leaves the 28-nation bloc. meanwhile, barclays c.e.o. laying out his plan for the bank earlier in an interview on bloomberg television. >> there's a lot of capital in the u.k., which is put to work in the european union. we would hope as the brexit negotiations go forth that the politicians and the regulators keep up the free flow of capital and continue to allow participants in europe to have access to participants in the u.k. to have access to europe, to make investments in europe, to help europe grow. alix: that's what jes staley
7:15 am
wants. that's not the reality, though, that's shaping up on the ground. how does management need to pivot now in the next six to nine months? barrington: i think management will have to play a very careful game here between thinking about the future and planning for the possibility of the hard brexit. whilst at the same time recognizing that london is the hub of finance in europe. it has the talent pool. it has not just the financial services industries, but it's the firms, the legal firms, it's the infrastructure that london has. it's going to be very hard for every major financial institution hubbed in london to pivot to dublin, to frankfurt, to paris. that is going to be a big challenge. i think that the banks are going to be looking for middle way, which is to establish enough presence in continental europe somewhere to achieve the european passport, but at the same time, keeping probably a lot of frain structure in london and the u.k. i think it's going to be very hard to see in the short term that there can be a wholesale
7:16 am
shift in the hard of that brexit a lude to. jonathan: it's for the europeans. we unvest, we help you grow, you need london. do the europeans listen to that, or do they not really care when they negotiate in the cong years? barrington: i think the europeans will not care. i think the europeans are going to seek the levi against the u.k. economy. this is a very troubling concept for the u.k. we're sitting here with a sterling that's reflecting the realities that may lie ahead, but a stock market that frankly isn't, or is reflecting the international imported earnings. the reality, to my mind, is we sit with brexit, which is in one single night, the united kingdom has changed the relationship of an active union from the 1700's in scotland. you've got the good friday agreement in question. and you've got essentially the treaty in question. so these are the integral relationships of the u.k. with the entirety of the europe now in question. and i don't think that can be resolved in two years. i don't think you trigger article 50, and two years later
7:17 am
say, well, there's the solution. we just saw that we're able to block the theater, the trade agreement. that was less than 1% of the population of europe is blocking something that 28 countries have agreed to. alix: well, they eventually caved, but nonetheless, point being. david: one of the things we usually talk about is moving people around, executives around, things like that. we don't talk about the regulatory scheme. we had james gorman from morgan stanley on earlier this week, and he was saying one of his concerns is, if you break it up, the banks will have separate capital requirements in dfrpblt locations around europe, which will really impede business, as well as banking. barrington: i totally agree. you made the point that jes staley was, giving a message to europe. he's also one of the people who will face this exact pressure. he has ring fencing in the . k., between the ring fence he now has his u.s. holding
7:18 am
company. now he's going to potentially have a european vehicle. the bond markets are going to have a very challenging time going forward thinking about financial institutions, as will liquidity. we'll have a number of challenges for management to work through. and i certainly think the credit market is going to have to focus hard on this. jonathan: help me understand some of the regulations. you can do a hearing outside of london. you can do it outside of the europian union. already. so if they stop london, are they stopping everyone else from doing the same thing? how does this work? to me, it's a lot of politics right now. i want to understand the legal issues. where are we there? barrington: i think it's a very good question. in fact, the united states could be one of the big beneficiaries of this. if i go to my point of it's very hard to move just out of london to a one continental european country, it will be an awful lot easier potentially to use the passporting relationship, the equivalent releaseship that you have in
7:19 am
the united states. to my mind, that is the one that i think must hold. it will be very hard to see the europeans break that enshrined super equivalent arrangement. to break that would create very substantial trade wars, financial trade wars. alix: not to mention the fact, if you also had u.k. banks moving spew other areas of europe, the e.c.b. thooze oversee that, in terms of rules and accounting. is the e.c.b. even set up to handle that kind of business that they would have to transact? barrington: i think operationally the e.c.b. is set up for it. i think that they can manage the increasing workload. i suspect one of the challenges is that many of the institutions that may be forced to go to work with the e.c.b. may not find it an easier relationship as they maybe have. i think probably the u.s. banks are more comfortable with their own banks. i think dealing with the e.c.b. across multiple jurisdictions
7:20 am
will be challenging. david: thanks very much. barrington pitt miller, thanks for being here. great to have you. coming up -- shares of ford down in the premarket after quarterly earnings fell 55% from one year ago. up next, we'll speak with the man in charge, the ford ford c.e.o. he's going to take us through his numbers. ♪
7:21 am
7:22 am
david: this is bloomberg. ford motor company is out this morning with its third quarter earnings, and they were better than analyst forecast. but they are down over the same quarter last year. ford earned 24 cents, actually 26 cents adjusted per share last quarter, more than the 20 cents people expected. on revenue of just under $36 billion, compared with $31 billion last year. joining us is the president and c.e.o. of ford, mark fields, coming to us live from ford headquarters in deer born, michigan. thanks for being here, mark. good to have you. take us through the numbers. you did beat the estimates.
7:23 am
on the other hand, you're down year over year. what's going on there? mark: when you look at the company, we reported $1.4 billion in pretax income, and it is down from last year. it is a bit better than we expected. and when you look at the profile of that, here in north america, we were impacted by our super duty launch, so we were making the investments as we launched that product. also impacted by a door latch recall that we announced during the quarter. and then we didn't have -- we had some changes in our f-150 stocks, because last year at this time we were lanching the plant and filling the pipeline, so obviously that didn't repeat. but in other parts of the world, in europe, we had very healthy improvement in our profitability. sixth quart near row is our profitability, and we've actually made over a billion dollars in europe this year. and we had record third quarter earnings in asia pacific and record sales in china and another strong quarter from our credit operations. david: as i understand it,
7:24 am
there were some one-offs in the year-over-year comparison that make it apples to oranges. is that complain why some competitors have done a little bit better in their earnings this quarter? mark: again, i can't speak to the competition. i can only speak to ours, and when he look on a year basis, our pretax are about the same as last year, and last year was record earnings. we're reconfirming our guidance or this year, which is about $10.2 billion in pretax. that will be probably the second best year than 2000. we're going to stay really focused on putting out great product, running a responsible business, and growing in emerging mobility areas. david: that's where i want to go. i know that's near and dear to your heart. you made some moves even this last quarter, making investments specifically in crowd sharing in san francisco. where are you in that process, and specifically when do you expect that to start increasing your earnings rather than being
7:25 am
aninvestment for the company? mark: right now, over the next, for the foreseeable future, we're going to be in investment mode, and we actually communicated that in our investor day. as you look at our earnings, our guidance for next year, we did say we were going to be down. our core business would improve, but clearly the investments we're making in the emerging opportunities, whether it's electrification or autonomy or mobility will impact our earnings. but, you know, further out, obviously those businesses will start contributing to the company's bottom line. in the quarter, we made two important announcements, the acquisition of chariot, which is a shuttle service in san francisco. we're going to roll that out globally in a dynamic shuttle approach. and then we also announced that our intent to have a fully autonomous vehicle in a ride sharing or ride hailing service in 2021. so we're making this great progress on becoming an auto and a mobility company. david: mark, finally, you mentioned three things,
7:26 am
electrification and autonomy, and ride sharing. of those three elements, which do you expect to start returning positive earnings first as you look out? mark: i can't put an exact time frame on terms of where each one would cross the finish line, but clearly we're making the appropriate investments, and our intent on each of those is for it to return sitively to the company in terms of profit contribution. when you look at things, let's say in the mobility space, probably they are less capital-intensive, and we get good returns on that. david: mark, thanks so much. that's mark fields, president and c.e.o. of ford. coming up, we'll talk about twitter. ♪

7:30 am
deutsche bank posting a surprise profit in the third quarter, as the c.e.o. moved to lower costs and the bank's trading unit reported a jump in revenue. barclays posting a 35% profit jump in the third quarter after its fixed income unit reported its highest revenue in more than two years. yields jumping to the highest level since the brexit vote after the u.k.a. commess grew more than expected. and it is another big day, ford profit falling due to cost cutting measures, and twitter revenue and user estimates beating estimates, and company announced else cutting 9% -- announced it's cutting 9% of its workforce. jonathan: two hours away from the open in new york. futures are positive, up 29 points on the dow, up five points on the s&p 500. really choppy session in europe. higher, lower, higher, lower, unchanged on the session so far. the bond market is lower, and yields hire, up three basis oints on a 10-year to 183.
7:31 am
an upside surprise on the u.k. g.d.p. putting the pound on a little bit of a stronger footing, the cable rate trading up 122. david: as alix just reported, twitter is pack in the news with earnings just out, and they beat analyst estimates. twitter shares are up on the news. yesterday before the earnings report, former microsoft c.e.o. steve ballmer sat down with bloomberg's emily chang to give us his thoughts on twitter. >> i think twitter is a producible asset. just what goes on, donald trump tweeting out late at night and everybody wants to talk about it. i don't think there's any vehicle that lets you speak broadly to a mass audience any better than twitter. could the product be easier to use? of course the product can be easier use, and i think that's an important area. could the product benefit from additional innovation that takes it in surrounding areas? yes. the cost structure, there are
7:32 am
rumors they're working on it, i have no information that anybody else doesn't have. but i see a lot of potential on twitter. david: that was steve ballmer talking with bloomberg's emily chang. you can catch the full interview this sunday on bloomberg's studio 1.0 at noon. now to talk about the twitter earnings some more and what they might mean for the strategic future of the company, we're joined by bloomberg technology reporter, joining us today from frankfurt. aaron, give us the top line. they beat estimates. do we care most about the earnings per share or their users? what do we care about? aaron: well, let's keep in mind here, things still are not looking that rosy for twitter. as steve ballmer said earlier, they have to watch the cost. the earnings just came out a little while ago. what we did see was a sightly larger job cut than expected. twitter sliced the workforce. that's about 350 people.
7:33 am
they said it's mostly in sales and marketing. it's going to cost them in the short term, though. it's going to cost them $15 million to $30 million in the fourth quarter for some of the restructuring charges. twitter lost more than 100 million u.s. this quarter, and they're on track to lose more than 400 million this year. david: those job cuts, do they fix the place up for a possible sale? there have been talks about possible sales that didn't go anywhere. are they fixing the company up to sell it? >> there's talks off and on for many weeks about a twitter sale. we got this very well publicized, probably for some, too well publicized in september and october. salesforce.com took a look until their c.e.o. publicly said he was not going after twitter. disney had a hard look. alphabet was reportedly looking at it too. that fizzled. bloomberg just moved a story saying twitter was girding to go it alone. we don't know what's going to happen, but certainly the job cuts fit in with that. david: that's aaron, bloomberg
7:34 am
tech reporter, coming to us from frankfurt. alix: with us now is oppenheimer analyst who covers the company. jason, as an underperform rating on the stock, a $17 price target, a little lower than where we're trading right now for twitter. you enter the numbers. what was your biggest takeway? jason: look, the u.s. business is slowing. it didn't slow as much as we thought, but you basically had negative revenue this quarter, negative year over year am it was down 2%. we were looking for it to be a little bit worse. so you've now hit that point, so the question is why did they announce that? well, if your revenues are going to start negative, you ve a spiraling effect on ebitda, but now they're just reacting to, you know, a lack of bidders at this point. alix: on the positive side, the
7:35 am
monthly active user base up by about -- daily active users up 7%. monthly active users hitting 317 million. the company really highlighting that streaming network that they have, the nfl, the debates, using that to sell that narrative. is that the right narrative for them going forward? jason: i think that's right. if you look at u.s. users, it was up 2%. it was the same as second quarter. international did slightly accelerate, but the moanization is a lot lower nationally. so you want to focus on the u.s. business when you're trying to understand, you know, kind of where they're trying to lead the technology and the mountization. from an engagement standpoint, that's where you need to focus. what they need to tell serve what percentage of the usage is what we'll call advertiser-friendly content. you take disney, they can't buy this company until you clean it up. there's been a lot of talk about the trolling activity, etc. what percent of the useable is
7:36 am
trolling -- what percentage of the usage is trolling and content that would not be considered friendly, when advertisers would not want their ad anywhere near certain content? that content, if it makes it great, is not monetizeable. jonathan: what kind of strategy is cleaning up a business to sell it? we were talking about the banks earlier on on this program. barclays has a strategy. jes staley owns the narrative. deutsche bank hasn't really got one right now. the company you're talking about, when we talk about twitter, what is the narrative, and have they lost it? to me, it's a company that was put up for sale, went through a sales process, no one wanted to pie it. and everyone else is looking thinking why should i? jason: look, i think the narrative they're going to try to play is we figured out how to come up with the next generation global broadcasting platform. you can get someone to interrupt with your advertiser live, and it's really hard to get that to happen, given all
7:37 am
the time shifted viewing, on-demand viewing. that's what they want to sell and hopefully convince the media company over time to look at that. you know, they're going to focus on d.a.u., it looks like they're up 7% versus 5% in the second quarter, three in the first quarter, so that's a positive trend, so i think they'll focus on revenue of getting better. historically they have not focused on that. they're going to focus on ad engagements. we're still up close to 100%. but pricing is down. and so there's still enough to talk about. i think they need to address the quality of the content on the platform and how you ultimately make this more of a brand-safe platform long term. david: it may that be streaming video is a good strategy, but it's hardly original. there are a lot of people out there that are streaming video over the spre net. what do they have for an advantage to take, pick a name, facebook? jason: well, you say how did
7:38 am
they get the content? they basically agreed to give the majority of economics up to the content owner in their deals. you would imagine if nfl content is available, everybody raises their hand who has a platform and says we want a shot at this. so, look, right now they're not making much money out of this content, but they're trying to prove that they can get people to engage and then see an ad live. again, it's been well publicized that nfl ratings are down this year. there are a lot of quose why. one of the theories is people are watching a lot more on nontelevision devices, and the current measurement systems are not capturing it. if that's the case, maybe people do want to, you know, watch the beginning of the game, the end of the game, the highlights of the game, on their phone, and if you can get ads to be seen exactly when the advertiser wants, there's value there. alix: jason, thanks so much for joining us, jason helfstein.

way. it just changes that experience, because people on average, in their lifetime, spend 37,000 hours in their car. emily: tech companies from apple to google to uber are vying for control of the car. what makes you think that watson and i.b.m., g.m. plus i.b.m., have something special that other technology companies can't replicate? >> well, in this case, using watson and the artificial intelligence can't replicate it, and therefore, g.m. has got data that can't be replicated either. and by the way, others have different kinds of data of their own that can get used. i can see us being able to play a role across many different parts in auto. we do today, by the way. so whether it's daimler car to go or work we've done with honda on batteries, there's many different places that this type of cognitive intelligence will come into play. and it is not just autonomous driving. we do participate, by the way, on autonomous driving with sub systems in the car.
7:44 am
so this is a whole continuum of opportunities that's out there, and there will be all different forums, whether it's ride sharing, your own car, and there will be a very wide variety of ways you'll participate. jonathan: that was the i.b.m. chairman and c.e.o. on bloomberg television just yesterday. the big story this morning in the world of corporates is the world of banking over in europe. deutsche bank earnings and barclays earnings, and the big question we have coming into this quarter for the european players was, ok, big quarter for the u.s. players on the fixed income trading side of things. did the pie get bigger, or did deutsche bank lose market share in it appears that the pie just got a whole lot bigger. david: and deutsche bank lost market share -- they're not nearly as much bigger as the u.s. counterparts. alix: the bloomberg charts what these guys are talking about. it is fixed trading revenue for u.s. banks. the purple bar is deutsche bank. barclays is the white bar. so on the surface, that purple bar looks quite impressive coming in at, whatter we are
7:45 am
over two billion euros versus barclays. but sequentially, 14% growth versus 49% growth for the five u.s. investment banks, that really puts it into perspective. jonathan: another thing that puts it into perspective, we talked about this d.o.j. issue with deutsche bank. since the middle of september through to the end of october, the big issue is that we only saw two weeks of this in the numbers in the last quarter, with the back end of september, and you wonder what the followthrough is, because what we heard from deutsche bank this morning is, yes, maybe things improve, but the back end of september tries to take a step back. you confirmed thatgain. david: as you suggest, we may not have seen the end of it. it may be just starting. it will be another quarter or two before we really did get a sense of that. alix: he doesn't know how that's affecting the new business, so in essence, that's why you're seeing deutsche flat. jonathan: want to go back to the one line that jumped out at me from the statement from deutsche bank, ambition. when a c.e.o. talks about
7:46 am
ambition, they have goals, strategic aims, investors like to hear them. maybe they want to hear this, but the aim is to be more ambitious in the head count reduction. what does that say about your business right now and your strategy? david: john cryan has a very hard job, a tough job. he's done a better job of saying what the bank isn't than what it is. maybe with the d.o.j. hanging out there, he doesn't have a choice. jonathan: you and i had a conversation yesterday, and the question was, can he really just wait to say i can't tell you anything until i know what the fine is? is he going to be proactive or reactive? the analysts this morning said he's going to have to be react and i have can't do anything until we know the size and shape of the fine that comes from the d.o.j. how long is that going to take? david: can't be fun for him or for his investors. now it's time for other stories making headlines at this hour. here's your bloomberg business flash. >> david, thank you. there's a big acquisition in the semiconductor business. qualcomm has agreed to buy m.x.p., $47 billion in cash.
7:47 am
that represents an 11% premium to yesterday's closing price. it's the biggest supplier of chips to the auto industry. qualcomm is the number one maker of mobile phone chips. volkswagen suffered a setback to rebound from the diesel emissions scandal. v.w.'s biggest profit contributor, audi, has cut its outlook. that's because of costs relating to the emissions scandal and recalling cars with defective air bags. audi says its return on sales will be below its target of 8% to 10%. snap chat will try to raise as much as $4 billion in its planned i.p.o. that's according to people familiar with the matter. a public offering could rally snap chat up to $35 billion. the company makes an application for sharing selfies and videos, watching news videos, and chatting with friends. that's your bloomberg business flash. this is bloomberg. jonathan: let's get a quick check of the market. we are one hour and 43 minutes

7:50 am
david: this is bloomberg. i'm david westin. we're heading to toronto, where erik schatzker is with knighthead capital management co-founder, tom wagner, at the capitalize for kids investor conference. erik? y i think: david, thank you so very much. tom, good to see new my hometown. knighthead has about $3.5 billion in assets under management.
7:51 am
we live in a zero interest rate world outside of oil and commodities more broadly, outside of retail. where on earth do you go to find distressed today? tom: i think the key is wait for opportunities. they occur in different sectors. they also occur in different regions. sometimes they occur in different parts of the credit market. we've found in the last few years terrific opportunities, not only in corporate distress, but also sovereign distress. i would characterize that as greece, argentina, puerto rico, you know, different situations where we found very, very compelling investor opportunities in what we view as sovereign distress. erik: how would you describe your state of patience? are your l.p.'s, limited partners, giving you the breathing space that you need to be patient, or do you feel like there's a fire under your behind and you have to invest, cause at what they hired you to do? tom: i think the only time we feel pressure to invest is when you see the broad credit markets trading at very high yields.
7:52 am
the rest -- erik: like january or february? tom: people want to know what you're putting in your portfolio, the nature of the risk. at any other point, our investors want to know we're able to find interesting investments. they're comfortable with us being patient. that's an important part of pursuing a distressed strategy. there are points in time, like the present time, where you have to rely on a level of patience to wait for the next great opportunity. erik: you mentioned a number of sovereign opportunities, quasi sovereign, like puerto rico. is that where a distressed -- you've been in this market since the late 1990's. is that where you have to turn now? tom: it's a place where you'll look over time to find new and interesting opportunities and ideas, so we've been heavily invested, as we talked about in the past, in puerto rico, specifically in the water and power companies there. we've been invested in argentina. we remain very bullish there. i think the sovereign debt remains, on a relative basis, extremely attractive.
7:53 am
erik: what about argentina? tom: it's interesting. the similarities exist in that, in argentina, the catalyst was a new administration led by a person who was very much a reformist and capitalist. in the case of venezuela, you have a leadership that is pursuing a strategy that's not viewed as friendly to outside investors and a more capital stick environment. erik: but the administration in argentina, i guess you could liken it to the maduro administration in venezuela. is venezuela going to become the next argentina, or is now too early? tom: in order to invest in venezuela, you have to have some confidence that they will make the transition. you have -- erik: do you have it? tom: we think over time, yes, and there will be very interesting opportunities there. erik: what about saudi arabia? you've been bearish on saudi arabia, the middle east in general. clearly they're having problems, fiscal issues. they just did a $17.5 billion
7:54 am
bond deal. tom: i think our view on saudi arabia is that it is in the best interest of saudi arabia to allow for a free-floating currency and there will be enormous advantages in the long run, particularly as they tament to attract capital to transform their economy by allowing that to happen. we're not talk a specific view on the relative health of the saudi economy. we're simply looking at the reality of the current global situation with respect to the competitive nature of oil and saying that for them to transform their economy, one of the great levers that they can pull, that would be very beneficial to their economy, would be allowing their occurrence industry flow freely. erik: the gulf region has sold $150 billion in debt so far this year, a record, and there's probably more to come. are those bonds going to turn into distressed opportunities? tom: i don't think it's going to happen in the immediate future, but i think for investors that are buying 10 or 20 or 30-year debt, you have to ask yourself conscious these economies transition over that
7:55 am
period of time to a place where they can compete without relying heavily on oil? erik: the answer is? tom: we'll see. i'm not sure that investors are being compensated for those risks, but i also think it's not an immediate event, so they're not worried about what happens over the course of the next 20 years. they're thinking about the next three to six months. erik: puerto rico, they now have a federal control board overseeing the commonwealth's restructuring efforts. can the people who are on that board -- you know who they are -- resolve these issues? tom: oh, i think with the oper will to find consensual deals with stakeholders, all the various stakeholders, there's enormous opportunities for them to turn puerto rico around. we are bullish their long-term prospects to do that. it will probably be a rocky road, as is often is. but i do think that in the long run things will go quite well. erik: tom, thank you so much. good seeing you here in toronto. that is tom wagner of

morning and welcome to "bloomberg daybreak." i am jonathan ferro with david westin and alix steel. futures up 30 points and the dow , the s&p 500 unchanged. yields upthe board, three basis points on the u.s. 10 year. a surprise to the upside for you at -- u.k. gdp but cable is unchanged. alix: revenues jump at europe's top firms. john cryan move to lower costs and they reported a jump in revenue. the --ields jumping to gilt yields jumping to the highest levels since the brexit
8:01 am
vote, and it is another big day in u.s. earnings. revenue and users beating analyst estimates, announcing they are cutting 9% of their workforce. that is what you need to know. jonathan: the big story out of europe, deutsche bank unexpectedly posting profits and reporting a jump in revenue while barclays posted a 35% increase. let's start with the analyst wrapped out of deutsche bank. profit up, stronger underlying profit, higher revenues, lower cost. the visibility, i want some and i'm not getting it. we do not know about provisions or much more about the doj. what are investors saying? michael: think that is why you have seen the stock jump around a little bit, because there still are so many questions outstanding.
8:02 am
people are happy to see the capital increase and a relatively quiet quarter in down,of revenue up, cost kind of in track with their plan , but certainly the big questions still remain. jonathan: this is night and day, deutsche bank versus barclays. trade revenuee -- up the john cryan says it is going to be a tough year for the rest of 2016. jes staley likes what he sees and is grabbing market share. >> barclays can afford to be a little bullish because they started their restructuring a little earlier. the same asstrength deutsche bank in fixed income trading but with all the noise around torture we have one of the heads of their investment bank coming to say they have lost market share in a lot of areas because of the
8:03 am
destruction, so maybe not only is this coming from the u.s. to barclays but also deutsche. there is still going to be a lot of volatility in investment banker. david: what part of the story of deutsche bank's day is cost savings? what jumped out or litigation costs. if you compare year over year 700 million euros to the good which is slightly more than the amount they beat on the net income. coincidence? michael: no, i think there was a chance that you had some more provisions for this quarter, but certainly it was much cleaner quarter than a year ago. a year ago we had a couple of big write-downs. the legal provision is still a question of whether that will be a fourth quarter issue or whether it will bleed into next year. richard has signaled they --
8:04 am
wouldhe has signaled they like to get a lot of the problems out of the way in 2016, but some of that is not in their hands, especially with negotiations with the doj. jonathan: michael moore and stephen morris, thank you very much. barclays stock up to and a half percent, deutsche bank relatively unchanged. joining me is charles peabody. .reat to have you with us if you want to color and visibility out of deutsche bank, but you get it? charles: i do not think you will get it until the fourth quarter. some analysts talked about their franchises intact. of the doj demands did not come until mid-september and the funding issues did not come until the last couple weeks of september and early october. -- ofmors being withdrawn
8:05 am
prime brokers being with john did not come -- withdrawn did not come until recently. alix: what was good was the cost-cutting. how much more can they bring out of cost-cutting and is that 14% fake growth sustainable -- fic growth sustainable? that pales in comparison so they are definitely losing market share. we have seen cost-cutting in the united states. when bank of america started their project in 2010, they had about $70 billion of expenses. their expenses today will be less than $55 billion, so you can cut costs, but their billion went from $105 to about $80 billion today and their profits deteriorated. it will be a tough grind to generate internal capital. david: what is deutsche bank's
8:06 am
approach to retail banking? we have a saying wholesale bank and a real estate bank that balance each other. i thought they were going to get rid of post hank at deutsche bank and maybe the supervisory board is talking about integrating it. what is their strategy on retail banking? charles: i do not know the answer to that, but i will say you need an environment in which you can sell assets and a price. that does not exist right now. they have tried to sell their chinese steak and there have been problems. out face a multiyear grind with asset sales, internal capital generation, and equity issuance. jonathan: let's talk about full.gy john cryan inherited a very difficult job. can sit here and
8:07 am
i'll agree with the strategy is that has come out of barclays. we cannot sit here and all agree on the strategy out of deutsche bank. some may sit here and say, he has just taken the job, etc. i think there are five months in it between jes staley and john cryan. people say they started things early at barclays. no, they did not. john mack farland was not happy with the job that antony jenkins had done and there were still people talking about the strategy of spinning off the investment bank. that strategy was under doubt a year ago. why are we sitting here saying what is ok for barclays, deutsche bank, let's give them more time? if i was an investor i do not think that would sit well. charles: i think ultimately at the end of the day happens to
8:08 am
the balance sheet is going to determine what they can do strategically. the balance sheet is a critical issue. at best you can grind out an improvement over a multiyear period that worst you have a lehman moment where you lose credibility about your accounting around that business sheet -- balance sheet. right now there are questions about how is deutsche bank accounting for their derivatives portfolio. alix: the last time you were here, you look at something very specific to look at stress for deutsche bank. this is the chart you were looking at, deutsche bank senior unsecured debt issued in may. what does this here in 1998 tell you about the stress? charles: as you can see, that debt issuance was trading pretty tight to par up until the doj announcement and it has come down significantly. they have issued i think about --ee and a half alien senior
8:09 am
billion senior unsecured debt at about three and a half points over. this is the most senior debt. i think the marketplace is still saying, we are uncomfortable with the balance sheet. david: is the marketplace overreacting? deutsche bank will pay their bills. when you get senior debt like that, is that not a safe bet? charles: i think senior debt is much more attractive and the equity is what is unknown. you are trading at a third of book so people are wondering about the dilution effect. peabody: charles sticking with us. let's get an update on what is making headlines outside the business world. emma: a breakthrough in the european unions internal dispute over a trade agreement with canada. all regional parliaments are set to approve a deal tomorrow

deutsche bank or barclays competing with these guys on wall street on their home turf? can you? charles: it has been a struggle over decades. every year you get these european banks coming into the united states whether they are japanese or european, they make an effort, and fall back. the environment i think will get tougher in the capital market. alix: what do we learn from u.s. banks about european banks and the health they have? said the firmdman is is as focused on navigating today's environment as we are on preparing for the future. you have to do the first really well to be in a position to do the latter. what did that mean to you? charles: the way i interpreted that is they see the current environment is full of risk, and you have got to get through that risk before you can execute your future plans. you are preparing your balance sheet to absorb those risks and

one of the things i point out to my client is, oldman has not raised their dividend for seven quarters in a row. they used to raise their dividend every two to four quarters after the financial crisis and the last time they to 2008. long was 2006 dividends are not the principal part of their capital return plan but in indication of what they are trying to do with capital. if i can point out a chart i pulled up on bloomberg that shows the relative performance of the money center banks, they are also telling you something. it is very short-term and you have to be careful about interpreting fundamentals from a short-term chart but you can get a sense of this sentiment. bank of america has clearly outperformed jpmorgan. the thing that differentiates bank of america is they have leverage to rate. jpmorgan had a phenomenal capital market cycle so the read
8:19 am
i'm getting from this chart is that there is clear confidence in the marketplace that we are going to hike rates in december which will help rank of america, but we are not sure what that will do to the capital markets. when we got away 2% 10 year, that will have implications. peabody, good to see you and thank you very much for joining us. gilt yields climb into the highest levels since the britain voted to leave the e.u. but is that round overdone? stephen englander joins us. ♪

kit juckes saying, fed policy tries it all down, cross market correlation up, and the market may be convinced the fed is going to hike rates in december but they are also increasingly convinced that all we have to look forward to is a single .nnual rate hike in the future let's bring in stephen englander who joins us from new york. i want to bring up the cross asset market correlation that kit is speaking to and i can do that looking at the bank of america merrill lynch index and we are seeing the lowest price swings since 2014. the correlations if you can take bonds versus equities, we have stocks, --onds, lawn long stocks, vols low. which asset class is in the driver's seat and is the fx
8:23 am
market just a buffer? steven: that is a lot of questions. i think the market is very worried about the backing up of yields and if they were to back up significantly more we would see some of these correlations getting to break down. we had comments or mario draghi earlier this week in which carefully he was saying that there were disadvantages to having very low long-term rates and low short-term rates, which is different than anything he was saying six months ago. we heard the same thing out of kuroda and the boj a couple of months ago. if the market perceives the fed as joining in, i think we could in quite a sharp backing up asset markets and pull back from risk. the other focus best, and we did a survey of our clients a couple of days ago, at the back of their minds they are worried about china.
8:24 am
does therethere risk are risks to the chinese economic outcomes, financial marco -- market outcomes, and they are afraid if there is an event it could have significant spillover both in emerging markets and developed markets. jonathan: we have got sentiment on the one side which is clearly fragile and volatility is clearly low. low volatilityle with complacency when a lot of people are aware of the risk? are they aware of the risk but unable to price it? steven: i think there is also caution, because it is one thing to be aware of a risk but if you hedge against a risk and it does not play out you lose money. many investors do not have that kind of money to lose. i think there is an artificial low volatility in the market because people are waiting, investors are waiting for the
8:25 am
events to realize themselves and once they see which way they go they pull the trigger in whichever direction. what it means by implication as they give up the first part of the move but are hoping to get the other part on any big move. jonathan: i want to know how the dollar story captures all of that. there is a general assumption in the market that is the dollar index pushes up to 100 the fed drops back and says, we will hold steady. does that still apply in this environment? steven: i think the fed is much less focused on the dollar. 2014 ort september of march of 2015, where the dollar has been on a rampage. tradeality is that the impact of the dollar is probably less than expected at this point . i think the fed is much less concerned about the dollar per se right now then it is theerned about both

welcome back to the problem -- program. he said this was pretty important because the u.k. financials are important to the u.k. economy. how concerned are you about passporting? martin: i would be more concerned as a bank than an asset manager. we run our funds out of luxembourg, but for banks i think it is more serious. it is still early days so we do not know what will happen. we all think logic will dictate but i think politics will make it tough for banks. jonathan: can we draw a distinction between politics and some of the legal issues? can they turn around and say you cannot have passporting rights, or does that need to go through the court? do they have to show they have the legal infrastructure to oversee that kind of thing and say to london, you cannot have it anymore? martin: they can just say you cannot have it anymore.
8:33 am
for those very few asset europe, weo sell in would sell u.k. funds into the u.k. and luxembourg funds into europe. for banks, it is selling the services or clearing trades in london that are taking place in europe that they are most worried about. alix: you were one of the property funds that had to freeze redemptions after brexit. you put a steep discount of 20% and now you are at 3%, close to normal. walk us through that. martin: after brexit we saw a flurry of redemption's and then it calmed down, and one of our rivals closed out of the blue. that caused a run on the property funds so about four or five closed but we took the view we are going to provide liquidity to the market, and we did it at a discount. we offered people the chance to take their money out at an asset

is near a "dangerously close situation." martin: it is daily liquidity funds offering, even though bonds are liquid in a normal market, when there is a crisis there is no liquidity. i think that is where the regulators are worried so they talk about 76 trillion in daily liquidity funds mainly invested in bonds, and that is where i think the issue could be. people recognize it is an issue. they did not see it coming and property, and it always comes where you did not see it. when you recognize the issue it usually does not happen so we can take some comfort from that. you do not need to withdraw your bond funds yet. martin: this is the vix -- alix: this is the vix for the treasury market over about 13 years. we are incredibly low compared to history. you hit a low you saw a spike in
8:36 am
yields. are we at that place where the story will reverse? martin: i think so, it will only go up. i think the good thing if i look at the bond markets is a lot of people are holding bonds as they have to. where i am worried is the daily liquidity funds, people trying to take money out of an illiquid asset. we sought in property. jonathan: you are talking about the high-yield stuff, the really bad stuff that maybe you cannot even get a price and offer for. stuff,alk about the safe because many people are saying the perceived safety b of safeunds and jgb's is where the risk is now. martin: i think the risk is in credit rather than governments and it is not just the high yields. i think credit will prove to be
8:37 am
illiquid as it did in 2008, but at the end of the day, the central banks may have to be the market maker of last resort as they did in 2008, and provide liquidity in the market. to talkhe risks we tend about our about central-bank motions and what is going on in the marketplace. what about the exogenous risks like political risk? how do you take into account as you invest over $400 billion worth of money? , itin: we really do not suppose the easy answer is we do not take political risk hugely into mind. things like brexit were a total shock to us. certainly a trump victory is probably not priced into the market. but we are not going to do anything about that. we are just going to take the
8:38 am
risk really. we invest in good companies, good bonds and properties around the world and hold them through the cycles. wanted to get some color about what you are discussing at the moment. with brexit i could give you odds but at least if i told you what the outcome would be you can make a trade. with this, if i give you the outcome of the presidential election we sit here and say it involves risk. what is the trade, what is the investment? martin: i think there will be a lip in markets and then it will return to normal. that is what tends to happen with all of these things. you look at how much brexit was over exaggerated by politicians and bankers. even gone over said he was going to move 1200 jobs to france and now he is not. there was a lot of exaggeration.

8:43 am
partnership with nfl. it is streaming bloomberg programs as well. on the call the have also talked about how video for the second straight quarter is the biggest sales and is having the biggest growth. the company says that restructuring of its sales staff could affect revenue to some degree. it is cutting about 9% of its staff so that is something to consider as well. it talked about product changes to notifications to user timelines as one of the things that has been driving growth. alix: julie hyman, thank you. oil has been trading near a three-week low below $50 a barrel. opec will beptical able to cut production. with us is the ing global head of global commodity strategy. its own kind of
8:44 am
roadshow and going to the media, saying this is our production per region, you cannot make us cut. will that hold water? absolutely. they want to get it up to $9 billion -- 9 billion barrels a day and they are not going to stop. they are not realizing there is a huge diversity that has never existed before. alix: if saudi arabia really wants this deal to go through they are going to have to do the lion's share of the cuts and we have a chart showing the best and worst case scenario. in the worst case they are going to have to cut more than one billion barrels of oil a day i. . >> one million barrels is pretty much how much we have lost since the price collapse so the u.s.
8:45 am
will step up, iraq will step up, the north sea will step up as well. any barrels taken out of the market. alix: the market will hinge on what saudi arabia does. they fight for that market share and say they are not going to cut one million barrels and end up losing all credibility. which one will they choose? >> they are likely going to ask their suppliers and neighbors to join him in the cut and say, we would love to do this if you would as well because we want the same level of uncertainty that we have had. alix: bc cut that saudi will place the blame on other people? >> everybody says there should be a cut and everyone says someone else should do it. alix: what is the downside for oil? >> re-think 50 is a cap for
8:46 am
prices -- we think $50 is a cap for prices. in a bullish market the average price is $40 a barrel. david: are they better off getting an opec deal or not? if it breaks down and they cannot force it there is no possibility but right now the oil price goes up on the possibility. >> they have had the opportunity to talk it up and that is what they want to do, but it becomes a situation of the boy who cried wolf. opec says we will announce a cut and everyone has responded. producers have cut their break ablelevels and have been to produce profit at $45 a barrel or above. i think they will face the same headwinds, issues, and difficulties. alix: if we take a look at the bloomberg, this is contango. this is the brent december to june spread.
8:47 am
the difference between those months, as it goes down it means there is more supply in the short-term. this really took a pretty steep nosedive i can do saw in 2014. why? inventory levels are still let record highs or close to it around the world. counts arec increasing. oil producers are saying this is a great time to be investing. sea. barrel in the north when you see that amount of supply coming online it is hard not to see weakness. alix: at some point when you have a price decline that will incentivize a lot more floating storage, isn't that going to curb supply later on? barrelssume we will buy , put them into storage and in
8:48 am
the future store them. what if there is new production online in the future? david: is there a structural things going on in the technology, and alternatives to fossil fuels? >> i think that is a fantastic question. it has brought down the production show the structural shift was from 110 down to 30. the swings are going to be between 30 and 50, and the march of alternative fuels is coming. europe party counts for renewables as the single most energy. portugal -- alix: 30 before 60 or 60 before 30 for oil? >> 30 before 60. alix: good to see you. time now for other stories

9:02 am
and down and people cannot quite get a grip on it. things were not as bad, the franchise was not eroded as badly as people thought. there were outflows that the ceo was telling us they got liquidity back. it is not in his power to say when they will settle and how much they will settle for with the doj, and that is a main concern of many investors. they want to know ultimately what will be the share count, and what is the strategy going to look like? will they have to cut back or sell their assets? there is so much uncertainty. jonathan: a lot of people highlighting the same thing throughout much of the morning, the fallout from the doj probe captured by this quarter. the back end of september for about two weeks. this is a bank with a massive debt trading wing and arm, huge. revenue was only up 14%.
9:03 am
when the big players in the united states delivering almost 50, barclays was delivering 40. why are they not outperforming and what does this bank become? nick: that is a good point. the bank itself would point to the fact that they do not have as large a credit-rating platform as they do in the u.s. that is going to be a key problem for them. also securitized trading. -- quite well on the quarter in the u.s. and deutsche bank is paying for shrinking and pulling down on some of these capital levers. is, which ision not quite that clear, how much revenue attrition? are they losing more than originally planned? werecryan and the gang saying they were still on track

9:06 am
barclays who have a heavy reliance on investment banking when they are not getting the same kind of lift they are getting from their u.s. counterparties, that is an issue. with deutsche you have the overhang from the boj -- doj settlement. in the case of barclays, we do not know when that african is the sale -- business sale is going to come. if deutsche will have to sell their asset base. we just do not know how they are going to raise and when they will raise the capital they need to really compete. equity is an area where relative to other sectors in europe we are not as bullish. david: what about debt? their profitw what outlook is that they are probably going to be able to pay their debt. or the market overreacting? but itthink they are
9:07 am
depends on what banks and what countries. it gets back to capitalization, back to the country you are in and what the fundamental business you are in is. on the italian bankside, i do not know that we worry about repayment but what is the right value. then we see banks like ing where we look at a debt and equity side and i think we see good value because of the capitalization. jonathan: let's talk about management. if you are invested you should have some idea of what you want the companies to be. what is the strategic aim of some of these banks? what should they become? through 2007 it was let's do the wall street investment bankers thing. that has not worked. let's say they recapitalize, what do they become? rob: it depends a lot on the operating model of each company. i think for a lot of the companies in teens getting back
9:08 am
companies getting back to their wholesale universal bank, a global supermarket in computing. i do not see that as being the right model for most european thereand i think that should be much more focus on other segments of the market where they have a competitive advantage. david: expanding from financials to europe, you mentioned ing. d.c. opportunities investing in europe? -- do you see opportunities investing in europe? rob: we certainly do. although there has been relatively slow, anemic growth we think the ecb will continue with their asset purchases. we think that while there may be some changes we will be able to continue beyond december. we think european stocks

9:15 am
that chart shows you a situation where actually the bond market has gone the other way. the bullish bond analysts now look maybe a little bit out of sync. rob: our view is that while we are very happy to see the 10 year at 182, we think it is not going to go up much and that is true even though we think the fed will raise rates in december by 25 basis points on the short end and maybe a couple of times in 2017. we do not get overly excited because we do see a lower for longer scenario. bonds as a -- view good place for many investors, but we do not see the long end of the curve. the 10 and 30 arising much at all. we would tend to favor stocks over bonds and less the situation warrants where you need to look at bonds. there is also municipals.
9:16 am
aboutan: we are talking three-month ranges and six-month ranges. mario draghi was talking in berlin, saying it is not all about central banks. yields have been falling for 30 years. when you say low for longer, re-tasking decades from now as well? decades fromking now as well? rob: i hope not. in all the developed economies you have enormous tension and retirement liabilities coming up for demographic reasons and we think that will put pressure on the long end of the curve because people will be buying longer bonds. we do not think this is a one to two-year problem. we think we are certainly for the next two to three years, relatively low. that: what pressure does
9:17 am
place on asset managers as they try to track is this? you cannot charge as much in a world where you get 2% growth. rob: tiaa global asset management is very unique. we certainly help all the retirement participants that are part of the system, about five percent of americans -- 5 million americans. they are looking for all kinds of returns and they are not just focused on retirement, they are focused on different financial needs so sovereign wealth funds, pension funds, retail investors and the like. 40% of our assets are in equities, 40% in fixed income, and the other 20% are in real alternatives. commercial real estate, private ,quity, energy, infrastructure and those are much less correlated to what is happening in fixed income and equities.

9:35 am
we have seen that with netflix. $7 billion next year on programming. it is a big-ticket investment item. google can play with its checkbook. it's not just user generated content on youtube, very successful, talking about getting into cure rated video programming. david: amazon is streaming in a big way. different part of the market. not mobile. they are awfully big. >> they are. there is another company with a big checkbook. they'll spend $3 billion to $4 billion this year. amazon prime is a different business. it's there to drive their prime membership which really serves their core e-commerce business. it has proven to be successful. david: paul, address this streaming issue whether it's amazon or twitter. who is going to own the streaming world? michael? >> right now netflix owns the linear streaming on demand preprogram.
9:36 am
i think live streaming is right now youtube. the item you didn't mention is twitch on youtube which is owned by amazon with you but is the largest live streaming broadcaster on youtube. that's watching -- people watching e-sports and commentary about e-sports. those guys presumably have about 100 million monthly unique visitors. big. that's a hard business to replicate. amazon bought it. i think you're going to see a lot of guys try. i don't see anybody competing with youtube for live streaming. i don't think twitter has the right audience for that. twitter has people who are actually genuinely interested in lots of things. twitch has gamers coming in. and youtube has people interested in video. i frankly think youtube continues to win and amazon continues to dominate the live stream on youtube with twitch. jonathan: think about how each of these companies are geared toward taking advantage of the streaming business. in the u.k., it was the telly
9:37 am
companies, sky sports, they'll say we'll stream this stuff on our platforms when we sign contracts. got it on e user has there. fantastic, done. the likes of youtube aren't in that game. who is better set up in the united states to take advantage and who is geared to got it on there. it? >> you raise a big issue. a big driver going forward for all internet consumption and certainly online video consumption will be on the mobile side of the business. you take look what happened this week with at&t and time-warner. &t with 12 hundred million consume -- 100 million consumer relationships. they think it's worth it buying arguably the best content provider in the marketplace. the marrying, vertical integration which we saw comcast do with nbc universal, a lot of people questioned that at the time. now we're seeing at&t validate that strategy and doing it from a wireless mobile perspective. i think they actually cited some of the success stories that they
9:38 am
have seen in europe. and in the u.k. for one of the reasons that they would pursue this transaction. david: what about this debate, perennial debate about the pipeline versus what goes in the pipeline, what you want to own. google with the phone, the pixel phone. that will take away from android, samsung. who has the advantage? >> you go with content always. i think paul's right. emphasis is on unique proprietary and exclusive. that's what warner brothers has. that's what netflix is trying to build with its original content. i think that's where twitter falls down. they don't offer anything that's live streaming that's unique. they are offering nfl that you can get elsewhere. that's really what you were talking about in the u.k. with sky sports. it's available on television. who cares if you can get it on your phone. that's where at&t is going with directv. they are trying to offer directv programming on your phone, but the emphasis in buying warner brothers is hbo content, which is unique, proprietary,
9:39 am
exclusive. again, the content guys win. that's why at&t is willing to pay this premium for warner brothers. i think -- time-warner. i think that's really the reason we're bidding up netflix because i think investors have a misperception that it's really easy to do and netflix will win. i think they are wrong and i have a sell on netflix. that's the key. content wins. david: that's very much to our team. paul sweeney, bloomberg intelligence director of north american research, michael, web security analyst joining us by way of skype today. now turn to tesla, they had a surprise. the elk trick carmaker reported an unexpected profit for the first time in eight quarts taking in $139 million by zelling zero emission credits to other auto makers. for more joined by senior auto analyst, kevin, from princeton. welcome. take us into the numbers. it was a surprise to me. i think a lot of people were surprised. are they real or just something
9:40 am
cobbled together for one quarter? >> it certainly looks like there's some of that. tipped it elan must have his hand throw pie in the face of the naysayers on wall street. everything's loaded into this quarter. you mentioned the zero emission vehicle credits. those were basically nonexistent in the previous quarter and equivalent to about a year's worth of credit sales in the third quarter. you look at the payables increase a lot. you saw the model s which had been struggling through two quarters on the demand side shoot up from say 9,700 units in the second quarter to 15,000 or thereabouts in the third quarter. at that seems like everything was pushed into this third quarter which would lead me to believe that although he has been coy about a capital raise by the end of the year, it
9:41 am
wouldn't make a whole lot of sense to do all this in the third quarter and then not raise even a little bit of a cash cushion before the next set of results come out in early 2017. jonathan: kevin, that leads me to the question, weighs left top optimistic about? if this isn't sustainable and b a capital raise, what is there to be optimistic about? kevin: well, they did move a lot of units in the quarter. they were cash flow positive. at least briefly. even on -- when you look at the capital expenditures, they were originally two and a quarter billion dollars guidance for the year, that's been brought town to $1.8 billion. so far they spent less than $800 million of that. you are talking about $1 billion until cap in just the fourth quarter alone. nearly impossible for them to be cash flow positive of next quarter which would lead you to believe all this was done in the third quarter to be able to raise money as soon as possible.
9:42 am
david: the cash flow issue and the capital issue, can they make enough cars to sell? as you said they moved more units. are they on track? they have a pretty aggressive ramp up. kevin: yeah, the ramp is aggressive. and we were just discussing it around the water cooler before. i'm a little bit concerned looking at the previous month, especially model s declining sales. that that may not be a supply issue. those might actually be demand issues. if you think about the model s, introduced in 2012, at least cosmetically not upgraded or not redesigned, obviously there's over the air upgrades that make that car different basically all the time, but as you're seeing declining sales there, they mention a 6.5% decrease in pricing from model s i'm not sure for that nameplate that it's a supply issue. it might be a demand issue. then if you're not going to see nother year, you're
9:43 am
going out at the next four quarters with just model s and model x. and i would be worried the demand is still there. jonathan: great to have you with us. joining us.ther year, bloomberg sense seen juror analyst kevin. still ahead trump's confidence. he tells bloomberg he'll win the white house despite the polls. details. stocks up marginally across the o board. from new york good morning. joi ♪

david: this is bloomberg, i'm david westin. we're now down to 12 days until the election and most polls show widening gap between the two candidates. but donald trump says he remains confident that he will win. his latest hotel opening, this one in washington, d.c., just down the street from the white house, the republican nominee showed little doubt. this is what he said to bloomberg. >> i think we're winning iowa. i think we're winning ohio. so do you. i think we're winning florida. i think we're winning florida by much more than the poll says. you have us two points up. i think we're going to do fantastically in pennsylvania. i think we're winning north carolina. i think we will soon be winningham ham. we're going up there. >> new poll today shows you closer. >> very close. when i go there, people say, look, it's jobs. it's fix our military. take care of our vets. it's don't let the world take advantage of us. i don't know film' a great message, but the message is absolutely the right message.
9:52 am
>> you're going to get 270-something electoral votes? >> i think we'll win. david: for more we go to megan murphy. megan, explain mr. trump to mee. is this bluster? megan: too late for that. david: is this bluster? is he seeing something we're not seeing? is there a chance he might be right? he's been right a lot through the primaries when a lot of us were wrong. megan: he's also been wrong a lot. yes, of course it's part bluster. yes, it's also part of this message that they believe that -- if they say we're winning, if they concentrate on their message that the election is rigged, vote. the numbers are the numbers. and he says when he's talking about pennsylvania, he's talking about ohio, recent polls show him with a big gap to make up in those states. yes our own poll shows florida close, which a must-win for him. he's running out of states he needs to get if he has any credible pathway to 270. jonathan: we keep hearing brexit
9:53 am
again and again. on the one side you have a referendum very different. much more difficult to poll for. on the other side there was this feeling in the united kingdom people weren't being honest about what they were intending to do. is there a parallel here? megan: there is a parallel but there is differences. you just mentioned one a referendum polling is very different than a state and electoral national election. you have people's past voting behavior. on a referendum you didn't have them. there is an important similarity. that's what donald trump's trying to do and his data operation is mobilize voters who actually may not be saying what their true intentions are. there is this groundswell of disenfrance chiesment who want to stick it to washington, the establishingment, who were there and come out in droves on the day as we saw in brexit with a much higher percentage of people who voted to leave as a condemnation of the established system they were in. the desire for the positive message they were getting on the other side. so what he's hoping for is that he can see a similar galvanizing
9:54 am
of voter discontent not just with their elected officials, but with a broader system he's trying to tie the narrative to. david: megan, think point this may come down to who turns out to vote on election day. who stays home and who comes out. do we have any indications of voter turnout either from the early polling or surveys? it's generally assume that a lower turnout will benefit mr. trump. megan: let's flag an important piece of reporting bloomberg has out which also shows that not only is donald trump hoping his voters turn out but he actually has three what he calls -- team calls major voter suppression drives under way. what they are trying to do is target african-american voters who have a poor record of turning out. white liberals and college educated women and trying to actually run narratives that will prevent them from going to the polls. to make them realize that hillary clinton may not be the best choice. that's -- for the campaign to say that's an active part of their strategy that's going to be interesting to see how that
9:55 am
plays out in the next 12 days. that pleas piece of reporting into a real look what is driving the campaign not only about getting their own voters out but turning off hillary clinton supporters. david: a lot of people voted already. megan: that's difficult to capture on polling, including our own polling in florida. we do see very high registration rates among democrats, higher than some people saw. if the polls are right, no, this isn't going to be that close. if donald trump is right and he gets this groundswell of voters who want to go out there and make a point they want change, they want something different, he is ultimate anti-establishment choice. david: thanks so much, she's our washington bureau chief. i don't know what we'll talk about november 9. jonathan: maybe we'll talk about banking story in europe. what i have learned today and haven't? i learned that barkley has a strategy. he likes the investment banking style of the business despite what people had to say about t he said he's getting market shares. david: including here in the
