1:11 am
good morning, simon. caught my lines that attention, a fascinating story for japan, but reflects a broader trend, the ruling party lost to an upstart output. where have we seen that before? this represents a challenge to the japanese to go back focusing on the economy. >> the challenge lay down doesically means for abe he pull the levers of the last 3-4 years monetary fiscal stimulus or take the high road, which is international contemporaries have not taken, and use the time to look at structural reform, which it sounds repetitive, but is the real challenge. the monetary stimulus only provides your window within to do it. he faces that choice.
1:12 am
if he does not embrace the high road, the political challenges will come thick and fast later in the decade. anna: the whole point of abenomics was taking the higher road, was about structural reform in the economy as well. the other story this morning his there may come pressure on governor kuroda, boj governor, and a former governor saying he is out of ideas, radical thinking, and that was the experiment with the boj. do you see that is a possibility? >> to the first point about the high road coming yes, but we keep talking about the monetary and fiscal stimulus and never have got into the third arrow in the quiver, which was the structural reform program. forerms of the future governor kuroda, the biggest challenge he faces is if this
1:13 am
bit of a taper tantrum in global bondts and that 10 year target 0%, which looks flaky this morning, heading higher, that may be the bigger challenge to growth in the short run than any challenge from within the movement to take a different path. there is this hawkish tone. manus: the tone has changed. anna: exactly. china and about introduce that theme, china's new bond length started today with little market reaction, the bond connect program with hong kong gets offshore investors are a way to access the mainland's $10 trillion market. it is a one way direction of travel. anna: butcher money in -- manus: a whole other story if you want to take your money out. as was the question with this,
1:14 am
this moneyeds because we have a cracking graph that shows the amount of on issuance versus redemption. corporate in china desperately need external funds because of the deleveraging process. this is the amount of bond issuance is, the real need, financing china inc. >> it is. they have been unsuccessful previous years finding international money for a $10 trillion debt market. less than 5% is held by foreign nationals. ,e have to ask the question why and given 3.5%, 3.6% yields on how thatar showed compares favorably with other international bond markets. a lack ofggest
1:15 am
symmetry, money in an money out. the main crumbs around the ok does resentity challenges with the risk premium associated with that return than they are comfortable with. chinese making great steps to put in place all kinds of infrastructure to open the nation up, increase transparency, access, tying the chinese economy into the global market, at least the infrastructure, book whether hearts and minds are there to allow integration and freedom part of these international money markets. >> the problem is each of the steps are not binary. it does not take you from lack of transparency to complete transparency. this is consistent with the chinese way of opening up. it does not want to do this and they specific step. they want to take baby steps. this is another baby steps.
1:16 am
see symmetry on capital flows in and out of china, i don't think you will see post so movement of international capital into their debt markets. manus: baby steps takes you to a whole other level. simon, you stay with us. let's get you set up for your highlights for your week ahead. she's back. international diplomacy center sang a lack of diplomacy perhaps on the way the g-20 goes. xi jinping in moscow to meet with vladimir putin. the next day the chinese president holds talks with angela merkel ahead of g-20 in hamburg. manus: that summit takes place on friday, all building to how will donald trump act and react with his russian counterpart? set to hold their first face-to-face meeting as heads of state. coming up -- a milestone agreement,

1:22 am
china has been snapping up energy assets around the world. some of the majors have been chipping their toe in the dealmaking space. the timing, the iran announcement is expected to come on the day that was going to be the deadline for qatar to respond to those 13 demands from the saudi-led gcc alliance, and it involves an oil field that iran shares with qatar. there is this interesting geopolitical angle. one source here on the ground thought that the decision to restart production in the northfield asked field earlier cause of the the diplomatic spat with saudi arabia and other gcc member since it heaped pressure on other opec countries, so some fascinating dynamics on the ground. manus: what is the latest on the qatar situation?
1:23 am
the kuwait these are playing a crucial role here as mediators. exactly. as i alluded to in that previous answer, we have had supposedly an extension of the deadline. saudi arabia according to local media saying it has agreed to this extension in response to a request by kuwait, acting as mediator in the dispute. hason't know whether qatar agreed to the extension and whether or not this makes any difference to the disagreement. we saw strong words out of the foreign ministry yesterday saying they would not concede to anything that violates national sovereignty. meanwhile, saudi arabia said there is no room for it remainss, so unclear whether an additional two days will be enough to result this dispute. manus: thank you very much. u.s. turn our attention to crude extending its longest run

of gains this year as drilling in america slows, futures climbing in new york, more than 8% in the past seven sessions. simon is with us. manus: yes he is. which of the stories in oil you believe? the big selloff or the bounce of the last eight days? >> big selloff. the baker hughes rig count is providing early week in visio some, but i am not buying it myself. i think that was the least effective production cut from opec, and six dollars a barrel lower. is whole of the marketplace looking at the sensitivity of the u.s. shale market to lower prices. there ishink large-scale capacity coming off
1:25 am
at the $45 to $50 range. you would probably have to see sub-$40. are they prepared to take that short-term pain? i don't believe they are. manus: the saudis don't seem to be in the mood for that. one of our top stories, opec , the total estimated production of opec. ae is now producing more than million are also day. by the time opec in november, there will be screams unless something dramatic happens, if the market continues in this bandwidth, you will hear clamor for them to do more, but is there an appetite? >> there is little appetite with stretched finances and a lot of opec countries. also through nigeria in their. a number of countries exempt from the production cap who for
1:26 am
geopolitical reasons were given leeway. will pressure come on them to participate? that is a plausible scenario, but goes to show something i have been talking about for six months, the geopolitical stability of the opec group means, which is fundamentally more unstable since the arab spring, makes comparisons with 1998, which a lot of professional analysts are drawing, very inappropriate in this cycle. there just simply is not the desire to impose short-term pain on the population. effectively public works programs will continue at lossmaking to represent a geopolitical stabilization program. as well and the gas story. thank you very much. you stay with us here on daybreak. anna: barclays is in the dark.

a coma, but still pretty groggy. are, adding towe a 16 basis point surge last week, the most since march, but the 10 year yield is just 1% above the record low set a year ago this week and this shows that the verge an convergence. diversiongence. the worst start to the year for the greenback, finishing the longest such stretch since 2011, wiping out postelection gains. if history is any guide, things could get worse. the dollar has weakened with positive and negative data surprises.
1:32 am
oil, a day winning streak, the longest since 2014 for wti. after the bear market we saw recently, the bets on the route may be peaking is money managers have been adding short positions at a slower pace. manus: thank you very much. let's have a look at the mobile version. you know how to get it. it is on your mobile and your bloomberg machine. the cover story, plan b, a plan b for brexit. city of london allegation heads to brussels with a secret plan for a free trade deal, and based on a concept of mutual access. that is citing people familiar. the plan has unofficial support in whitehall and german officials and comes as the u.k. chancellor philip hammond urged is this leaders that the government is listening after
1:33 am
disasters general election. anna: the next story is on qatar , given another 48 hours to meet the demands of its gulf neighbors. the extension was granted after the foreign minister delivered a letter in response to the list and set on saturday his country won't concede and was set to let today's deadline pass. fed minutes on wednesday of the june meeting, part of significant insight into balance sheet unwinding. might be ruffled on thursday. the upturn in inflation is not yet self-sustaining. anna: four former barclays executives will appear in court. and three senior
1:34 am
managers and the bank stand u.k. seriouse fraud office of conspiracy to commit frauds. joining us is our bloomberg european legal editor. thank you for joining us. talk us through the details of this case. >> it goes back to the financial crisis in 2008 when several banks were being bailed out by the u.k. government, and barclays did not want to be taken over by the government and was trying to get there own had 12 billion pounds at one go from qatar, and with the prosecutors are looking at is another part of the deal. they paid 300 million pounds in firmory fees to a qatari and made a 3 billion pound loan available to qatar at any time. manus: what is going to happen at today's hearing. procedurally easy.
1:35 am
come in, state names, given bail hearing,or another 10-15 minutes altogether. what we are hoping for is getting a look at the indictment , which will have more details on the charges. all we know is they are charged with the vague terms of false representation or unlawful financial assistance. hopefully we will get details from the indictment to explain more. manus: let's see what is delivered today. how bloomberg -- concerns over brexit will not be dismissed, assign the government is striking a more realistic tone on the divorce talks. who triggeredrs the withdraw from the london and go 6-12mmission
1:36 am
nautical miles from the u.k. coastline. a great deal of discussion was made yesterday on a whole host of challenges. i'm not can it get into the nuances. there is a definite shift in terms of negotiation and sentiment. hammond is about to talk to businesses and you have these , soces about fisheries there is saying sense of a shift in the stands for negotiations? >> there is. it is the third part of negotiations. we have not heard from money. we've heard about northern ireland and the land border, we've heard about the right to remain in the u.k. for eu nationals. of therd part
1:37 am
negotiating approach to this, which is to address those three areas first. the third part is money, financial services, a passporting arrangement, trying to wrap it up in that, to make the most difficult part of the separation for them which is the divorce bill and tying that up with key strategic services. it is a sensible approach. said theyn't the eu don't want to tie up in the future trade deal, which is what this would be alluding to? what the eu 27 is on the agenda right now. they said it is about the land border, eu citizens, and the divorce bill. >> you allude to something which is common knowledge, the eq are not prepared at this stage to do
1:38 am
any of the future arrangements until those component parts are this has to tie in with the fact that the u.k. government fundamentally does not agree with that and is trying every approach, particularly the key area where the u.k. government has some leverage, which is on money. it can if it wants to walk away from its obligations. there was along with the symbolic, thete idea of the u.k. walking away. manus: it was on the front page of the telegraph. >> the idea of walking away where there is no international court which can impose such a of the fewis one bargaining chips the u.k. and therefore in t we use it. manus: one of the things is the
1:39 am
shift in the sands from the doe. -- boe. the squeeze in terms of the u.k., the savings ratio is now the lowest on record, below 2%. real income with a longer stretch of declines in 40 years, and people are talking about raising rates. have i just lost the point here? int would be the final screw terms of social policy here in the u.k.. >> three members lost the point, which is that at this stage with the amount of uncertainty over the future trading relationship u.k. has with its european colleagues and a short-term spike in inflation, it is not the time to be raising interest rates in the u.k., and are int the mpc members
1:40 am
that position, and with the governor providing slightly , the rhetoric of one-week changes to the next. what ever it says, this is not in environment where the spike in inflation we are seeing in the u.k. will be mitigated by factors to mystically controlled. presente perception of presen negotiations in the bounceback in the oil price. near zeroest rates would be a foolish move. manus: there are two things people talk about one is the possibility of another election, and two, another referendum. so your probabilities on that? >> i have a terrible forecasting
1:41 am
record on politics. in the see any appetite conservative party at the moment for another general election. they are petrified of the idea that all the momentum that is laced with relevance, but momentum is with the labour party, so therefore there are conservative mps who will say let's get through this next to your window, and also the strategy is that theresa may has withtially impose a window which she can do the two-year article 50 process. focusvative parties will on getting a plausible leader to follow it. anna: do we need a coalition to forge brexit? we need grown-ups in the room, across parties or other parts of the conservative party is an interesting question. out answer the second part of the question, whether we get
1:42 am
another referendum or test of public opinion. it may not take the guise of a referendum. thatnk that is plausible the economic pain starts to mean more profound, more long-term. you mentioned the savings ratio. if that is a way of household budgets smoothing through a temporary compression, not only sensible, but plausible. it can't be sustained for long, and if pain continues, a revisiting of this question is plausible before the end of the article 50 process. anna: thank you very much. manus: breaking lines from the finance minister. anna: in japan. the deputy finance minister talking in japan, supporting the abe administration and supports the premise are at the time of this defeat in tokyo. manus: 23 seats. anna: much below expectations.
1:43 am
manus: yes. the bundesbank got help this weekend ensuring monetary policy would be adjusted. he said the central bank and shift stance even for inflation. anna: playing the supporting , selling with the ecb is doing if you like to the german public. ersch saying we can act in some way. where does the ecb go? the tcp needs to see a
1:44 am
broader set of indicators inflation is picking up. swap is 1.4. has been clear in the governing council have been supported thus far of wanting to see that pushing towards 2%, which we have not seen for two years. until that point happens, the ecb governing council will remain in placating mode, not action mode. manus: last week, one of the most staggering moves was the move on the bund market. this was almost three standard deviations. deviations on the und market. i know you are a market economist, so to that income in the momentum in the bund we
1:45 am
almost doubled in terms of yields in europe last week that to me is a staggering reassessment of the markets perspective on the ecb, who is out of kilter after what you've heard? >> i think the market is out of kilter. it is probably whip sawing as a result of being perennial at the way in terms of monetary policy is going in europe. farm, the flow of capital is trying to provide some hedging for a position which was perhaps overly bearish on the european monetary policy. anna: thank you very much. thank you for your thoughts. simon french joining us there.

freedom. simon french is still with us on daybreak europe good many conversations to be had about what we are seeing right now in terms of the president's twitter account. wasof the things that talked about a lot in the u.s. yesterday is the extent to which fromweets are distracting the serious business of health care reform, tax reform, and all the other things heading into the g-20, on the things investors would rather the president was focusing on. the social media aspects of the president's behavior is the backdrop so when he goes to congress to try to get potential congressional members across the aisle, they will see that as a backdrop which may be placed will with the trump base, and it does.
1:53 am
the media is not a popular aspect of the trump base's views, versus one where you need to get broad-based appeal to get the mathematics in congress. standpoint,omic these reforms are necessary if you want to get the growth target that steven mnuchin and donald trump have spoke about. it's not possible under the status quo. there needs to be a retooling of the u.s. economy, very difficult to do with that kind of noise going on in the background. anna: republicans last week were still confident tax reform could be done. the most important problem facing the u.s. administration is the debt ceiling. >> the u.s. treasury will run out of money september, maybe october. to think that simultaneously
1:54 am
a fiscally hawkish congress, it is difficult to seatgeek structural reform taking place concurrently with that. ,anus: you have just come back ey can still do the tax reform. the g-20 meeting is coming up. trump has been on the phone to japan and china. tradel all revolve around , and potentially not a great g8 or g7. g-20 coming up. how much of a risk is tariffs? they have gone quite on the subject, haven't they? how delicate will g-20 be this week for trump? short-term, he probably does not have as much pressure as he will have coming into the midterms to raise tariffs. 45% tariffs on
1:55 am
imports from china, 20% to 25% with mexico, key elements he has gone completely silent on. if the domestic agenda stalls and the elements where he can use except importers rather than congressional support will come back as his key leverage tool. somes why at think at point, and this underpins a bullish view on the u.s. dollar, is that protectionism will come back as we had towards midterms and the eyes of the white house shift from the domestic reform program to getting reelected. the focus at the end of last week was on steel, and tariffs on steel and the way the white house is not on the same page. back to treasury yields. manus: j.p. morgan con the
