higher because the fed has been considering higher rates. but it has not moved anywhere near as much. manus: the market is saying the probability of higher rates is more or less something we should be considering. you think we will get more than three rate hikes, which will move that two-year yield? >> >> yes, i think we will have four hikes this year. the fed has been on a quarterly tightening cycle, the one time last year where it did not actually raise rates, it still tied and policy by announcing the reduction in the size of the balance sheet. economics and the financial conditions as well. markets have been on fire and they have to touch that break a little higher. i think a quarterly path to rate hikes should be the best case. manus: the other dynamic is this, we have got a rerate.

what will come back to that? the bank of japan, the ecb. we will touch on each of these, but that isn't terms of u.s. versus europe. i have got the bond market moving. to what extent will the u.s. markets outperform the bund counterpart? >> i don't think bunds -- manus: i'm sorry, bonds. termst is interesting in of that deferentially the market in the short-term is starting to bring forward when the ecb might start hiking rates. in that sense, the differential, it is starting to diminish a little bit. that is one of the things has supported the hero strength against the dollar. -- that has supported the euro

strength against the dollar. manus: this is the u.s. bond on the two year spread. out?think that has topped >> well, at this particular point in time, we do think that the market will keep on going to the process where it starts reassessing where the ecb is going to be. it is they came back from the december meeting were illustrative in that sense. if you look at forward rates, we are looking at a conversion. manus: in terms of the story, if i look at the cpi sales and retail that a, excluding energy on friday. they say, you have got medical goods, vehicle pricing -- those are the headlines. if you look at services, tightening housing market, to you find any dramatic dollar weakness?

fairly tepid hang up. that ties back to the dollar, isn't it? how important is the dollar. we see a weak slide in the drawdown of the dollar. join the dots for me. >> you are right. the dollar is rebalancing the global growth we are seeing. part of that story is how it feeds into initial conditions. when we look back and think about when we had that very period of dollar strength, the impact on the u.s. theomy, now we look at it other way. we are a three-year low. fed more give the comments the inflation pressures

from china and the rest of the world. we are not seeing any evidence that it is really picking up. there are people think, inflation is coming. we have not seen it come through -- certainly not come through sharply. the underlying trend is one way it is drifting higher. manus: so, we are looking at four rate hikes from the federal reserve. on the 10 year government bond bex rose tot 21,000 -- the most short the market has ends is less cheerful the volatility is nowhere near where we were -- this is something i looked at. near where we bac were in 2014. i am concerned there is not enough volatility in the market

if there are four hikes. >> it is a good point. i think when we saw the volatility -- manus: b i will put up the -- i will put of the bond volatility charts. it takes you back to 2013. >> a temper tantrum. it was all about the perception of an unexpected shift in the fed's monetary policy reaction function and what that meant. by now we are getting the market is in the process of thinking the fed is not changing very much, but we need to be pressing a little bit more. we have seen a decent amount of repricing. your point is actually will made . vol is too low.

i believe we will get more volatility across markets will another aspect about the church 's we have a huge increase in the amount of people in debt. supply coming into the markets. wo reasons. one, tax cuts. fed's balance sheet reduction, which would give them apart -- manus: apart.

that has been eroded as the recent facts are showing the global economy is in good shape. manus: we are in good shape. this is the s&p 500, 11% higher than it to hundred day moving average. this goes back to the key point. love have a look at this shot, which is valuations. the s&p trading at the widest level, the 200 day moving average since 2013. that is a most since 2002. the slow tax, given drift within the said, does that kind of market remain a draw? tristan: i mean, we see equities more attractive outside the u.s. than in the u.s., because if you look at, say -- i look at things on an earnings yield basis. if you look at the earnings yield basis, you can still get something like 6.5% earnings yield, which is a s good i

guess. if you compared -- as good a guess. if you compare that to real interest rates in cash rates to the u.s. and negative across the spectrum in europe and japan, across the yield curve, the 6.5% over the global equities versus these low levels in the bond market, medium-term perspective, i think equities is the place to be. manus: equities is the place to be. , our guestlast week was ramping on. it is not really the death of the bond market in my mind because it is nowhere near the volatility. guess in the bond market is when you see a fundamental unseating of where you think rates are priced. i don't think we are there. i don't think -- we are getting so much forward guidance, it is going to be -- equity could be spiky.

it does not look anything like 2013 13 in terms of the taper tantrum. 2013 in termske of the taper tantrum. see an: if you were to structural long-term increase in the level of inflation that we are experiencing, you would need that to get to the much higher at various stages in the last 20 years to 30 years. but real yields are very low, so one would think that they should move higher. you compare them to 2013, the u.s. to your yields are at 2%, as you just saw. two-year yields are at 2%, as you just saw. manus: do you think you get a more aggressive -- i am trying to work out what is it that perhaps unseats the bond market? benevolent onnill

volatility. what does it take to invoke volatility at that kind of level in the bond market? i am comparing it to 2013. it could be fair. you're saying i should max that out and have a look at volatility over a slightly longer term period of time. what is it that unseats volatility? do you think we will have a standard return to inflation in the united states of america? tristan: i don't have a massively strong view in terms of inflation. that has been the old cyclical shifts, but if you look structurally, you know, the fed funds rate was at 6.5% in 2000. if you look at the inflation rate would was dominating over that period, late 1990's and early 2000, it was not all that different to the inflation rate today. what was different if you had a much stronger global economy at that point in time. the u.s. was growing at 3.5% to 4%. and you had high real interest rates, whereas in this environment today, we have got low real interest rates. volatility, i think, comes when

people have felt comfortable about a spoon view of the world -- certain view of the world and you get a correlated shift in belief that really everyone has to shift, shifted the goal post in what they are comfortable with. , you know, a move from the ecb over the next 12 months or so, japan, some noises that maybe they will follow, if you see the global trend towards interest rates on the up as opposed to just the u.s., maybe that will be what shifts it. manus: the one thing i was chatting about with david earlier -- i am finding the chart, the amount of negative yield in bonds. 6460 is the chart you want to have a look at. this is the amount of negative bonds in the world, with the best eight trading sessions of 2017. i am a bit like a rat up a drainpipe. the stock of negative bonds has

to medically. you put it in context for me. 7.37, the smallest since july of last year. that is telling me personally, that is telling me that that is something very much going on in terms of our understanding of where global central banks would be by the end of this year. take it job is to forward. it is to extrapolate forward. that chart, in terms of this stock of negative bonds out by $1 collapsing trillion, is that something you pay attention to? tristan: not that. it is an interesting fact, but i mean, why would you earn negative yield in government bonds anyway? a bit of the german figh five year yield, it has risen modestly, but it is still five basis point. if you look at the strength of the european economy, why should interest rates average negative levels for the next five years? manus: before the end of the year? tristan: --

across the curve, i think the level of interest rates implied in those longer-term yields, for me, they are too low. whether they go this year, next year, or even later, on average, over the next five years, i think rates are going to be higher than what the market is pricing. manus: the euro, punching out a three year high in the euro, that ties back to the equity story. at what age does that become a problem? the cliche market discussion. the euro is strong. and there is this view that mario draghi and his message somehow has got, you know, pushed into the background. does the euro continue higher for you? where are we this morning? owndollar has got its idiosyncratic issues. 122.15. people are saying that were values are around 125, 130. does the euro trade higher for you?

tristan: i think it is tough to call dollar euro. i think you are getting better value and some of the emerging-market currencies, to be honest, where you are getting the high real yield. being,or the time unattractive from a carry point of view. the fundamentals have been improving and there has been bigger growth in europe and the u.s. manus: you stay with us. just a couple of lines to bring to anybody who is tuning in. the city ofn london. 8:17 from europe. this is our top corporate story on bloomberg. carillion will take steps to enter into what's called a compulsory liquidation. u.k. government contractor has said that is concluded. it had no choice but to take the steps with immediate effect. the decision came after the talks with key financial and other stakeholders, including the u.k. government. we will talk about that shortly. to give you a bit of a hint in terms of what they look after, you were talking about a company that -- they deliver 18,500 -- they carry out maintenance contracts and look after one

million square meters of the national health. all caps facility's. 875 nationwide. ramifications broad and deep. it will be wiped out here in will there be a white -- this will be wiped out. get?will the bondholders that is the question we start our monday morning trading with as we go into liquidation on carillion. we will talk much more about the u.k. markets when we return. this is bloomberg. ♪

manus: it has just gone 7:21 in london. one of our top corporate stories is to do with this particular company, carillion. it's been struggling. it's a construction company. it will enter compulsory liquidation. the company said it concluded it had no choice but to take these

steps with immediate effect. the decision came after talks with key financial stakeholders, not least, the u.k. government. this is the issue. this is the debt within carillion, 172.877. you are seeing this level of total debt. were throwne issues up as early as the middle of last year, as you can see through that is the stock price. we are entering liquidation for the bond market. it is going to be perhaps a savior out there. what level of payout will they get in terms of these bonds in the liquidation situation? let's get to benedikt kammel, who joins us with the story. let's start with the political ramifications. i can already see the tabloids tomorrow morning talking about the politics of bailing out banks, but not bailing out people who deliver 18,500 --

the news runs down in crisis. yes, that is exactly the issue. the u.k. does not have a nation in bailing outcome -- an issue in bailing out banks. this is what we have seen here now. we have the talks over the weekend between carillion debtholders and the government. the government is very involved in this, and they should be, because carillion has been a central place in the u.k. economy in terms of the public profile, in terms of work to do from high-speed rail to building hospitals and that sort of thing. it is not a company you desperately want to see go into liquidation, but that's exactly what happened here now. they needed 300 million. they would not get it. this morning, they pulled the plug. this is it. we need to do this compulsory liquidation. manus: how did we actually get to this position? if you read the

bloomberg story this morning, it talks about the debt levels and profit warnings that came through last year, just after they were awarded quite significant, quite significant contracts from the government. we will begin to question, due diligence and whether that was exacted correctly and on a timely basis before awarding the contract. surely, that is the key question here. benedikt: yes, that is a bit of a head scratcher, isn't it? if you look at the chronology -- carillion was for the longest time, you know, considered a well-run company. it had big contracts, overseas business. they went on a shopping spree, bought a couple of other u.k. construction companies. audaciously, they tried to buy the country's number one. did not work. gives you a sense of confidence behind the company. and then, things rapidly started deteriorating. we had the profit warning over

the summer, and just a couple of days later, the u.k. awarded almost 2 billion pounds worth of contract. that is going to lead to a lot of questions like what did the u.k. government know? how could they have done this? was this poorly managed? were they throwing them contracts just to keep them going? these are questions people will be asking going forward. really, this is a company that used to be worth 1.8 billion pounds. now, 60 million pounds, which is nothing. and we will probably see that value go down to zero today. manus: as you said, potentially going to zero on the equity side. let's see what the bond market makes of that. think you for joining us. a little bit of breaking news coming through from -- this morning. they are talking about tallying up. they delivered with a net number . iny delivered 718 planes

2017 persist 688 and 2016. a nice step up for airbus. 776 jet orders in december alone. keep an eye on airbus as they start the trading day. let's have a closing thoughts on these markets with my guest in terms of the banks. you mentioned -- tristan henson, you have been very patient. jpmorgan said they put a down payment down in terms of payout. do you like the bank? tristan: it has been a favorite sector of ours. expectations are very pessimistic. valuations versus the broader market. from a portfolio construction point of view, they have been quite attractive in that they are a beneficiary of rising rates. the market might come under pressure if the rates go up further than people think, as a have been rising. manus: and it is -- it is going to be a big weekend in terms of the banks. we have bank of america,

citigroup, and morgan stanley. tristan henson will return again. he is part of the multi-asset fun. carillion is the story. daybreak european market open is up next.
