betty: good morning i am betty lou in new york. i am haidi lun in sydney in your watching "daybreak australia". -- the what has

produced a list of chinese high-tech products, and it aims effect unlesse consumers and china has made it clear it will hit back in kind. its go over to washington to discuss this developing story with our white house editor. we are seeing these lines coming through from state media and a mouthpiece of beijing is saying these tariffs break international trade rules. what do we know so far? the u.s. administration released a list of 1300 products they are going to tariff from china. we are trying to sort through it. a lot of products are obscure and use technical names. there are stuff ranging from human blood to boring machines to chinese flamethrowers. pros and cons for elon musk. it is a lot to wait through and we haven't figured out all the winners and losers. of, are wein terms

expecting more details, or are -- expecting more any fleshing out of exactly what tariffs and the numbers we're talking about as well? there is a 60 day comment. lobbyists will be writing to him his station and objecting to specific line items in this list of tariffs. they also are supposed to have a public hearing on these tariffs before they go into affect. the tariffs will take effect, and in the interim i would expect the chinese to issue retaliatory tariffs, probably targeting parts of the country donald trump won his presidential campaign. betty: so the tit-for-tat will continue. alex wayne, thank you. what's therump says military to secure the border

wall is built. the president is increasingly frustrated about the lack of progress of a major campaign promise. let's discuss this with the howard buffett who is the son of billionaire investor, warren buffett. he wrote a book on the state of the u.s. thousand border and that what is called, " our 50 crisis."der betty: howard, good to see you. the last time you were here we 40ked about your book, " chances." why focus on this issue? over the years, i have worked to the gates as a philanthropist and countries like on a mullah, honduras, and other countries.

involved in law enforcement for six years and that isn't cochise county, it borders in arizona. betty: you have seen immigration and illegal immigrants coming across firsthand? say, certainly weekly, but not daily. transshipped, that the kinds we see very frequently of people crossing our borders are sometimes carrying drugs are sometimes it is immigrants. that has been a pretty regular thing. betty: what is the message we are missing when we talk about the border crisis? howard: the biggest thing i focused on in the book is we have 65,000 u.s. citizens died from drug overdoses. maeth, and heroin, cocaine, those are being reduced

from mexico, at least 90% of them. if we don't secure the border will deal with this opioid crisis. is not just opioids, cocaine and meth are impacting citizens across the u.s. betty: what is your reaction to the comment from president trump today was says let's militarize the border? let's use the military to secure the border, what you say to that? howard: i don't think you can do that, legally. you can use the national guard in the state direction that is different than making the military to the border. but say there's one part of the department of defense back to be used for that, which is the coast guard. it might take some directives to get them off of water and onto and can serve do as customs agents. they deal with law enforcement every day day in and day out. the biggest issue is the

military has a completely different mission that what law enforcement does. if you try to mix law enforcement with military, you are going to have some bad experiences. haidi: immigration is such a hot and you associate that with the drug epidemic and it becomes more sensitive. you think despite it being in the headlines every day in the u.s. that the issue is to politicized to find a rational solution? it is to politicized and that is another reason why i wrote the book, it is based on personal expenses over the past several decades from different perspectives. none of that has to do with politics. when you have 65,000 u.s. citizens die in when you're as a result of drug overdoses, yet to stop. this people are republicans, itocrats, independence,

doesn't matter what your politics are. this is information for the country. haidi: what is your strategy to get people to listen and is the president willing to listen? howard: he has a guy in the white house, general kelly coming understands the situation well and understands many perspectives. i hope he will listen to the general. general kelly is well-versed in the subject and he is very experienced and it. he has a big heart and he knows when to be tough. he has all the different factors it takes to make smart decisions. betty: to be talk to anybody and the white house about this or the president about any of this? and i am not sure they want to talk to me. [laughter] i have not been invited. betty: have you reached out? howard: i know general kelly and he has his hands full. if you wanted my opinion he would ask, but he is a guy who is right there in the white

house and has all the experience in the world to deal with this properly. as actually disappointed to see him leave the department of homeland security because i thought would do a phenomenal job. do you have these conversations with your father on these issues and answers to know if he shares her views on this? howard: usually when i talked to my that it is about business or berkshire, or the foundation. attack about what i am doing in the foundation, i haven't talked much about the subject. other in terms of the industries or committees that should be engaged on the issue, what you think about the role somewhat say in creating this problem plagued by pharmaceuticals and the health care system in the u.s.? andrd: health care system specifically the doctors who overprescribed opioids -- what a lot of people don't realize,

there is a lot of federal agencies wafted information on this. the cartel is actually targeted areas in the u.s. there are not good we help facilities available and is a particular geographic area where opioids are overprescribed, they know that. they come in and have ulcers of tactics. is to give away free heroin for the first and you want to try it, and then you are hooked. to think this is just happened by accident is really being naive. that has been a plan behind this in terms of the cartel, and have taken advantage of the mistakes we have made in our health care system. betty: how much of your role in illinois as sheriff, how much of that has changed your view? howard: past shaped my views, we have had record overdoses and the county, and all of my officers carry narcan. betty: there you are,

patrolling. i had anlso, experience through this parses that i never had before, which is our jail. we deal with ice through the jail and you with a number of issues as an auxiliary deputy. it has been quite an education on those issues. betty: certainly an education and a new experience for you. i want to talk a little bit about taking a step back a bit from the border drug policy talk broader about some of the issues going on economically. trade -- we have heard so much about u.s.-china and the global trade war. i know you have got strong opinions on nafta which you have personally seen up close. howard: i worked on nafta in 1990 when i was on the county board.

bought flour mills and corn mills in mexico and have a long history businesswise and through our foundation -- we spent several hundred million dollars down in el salvador and mexico and make many trips down there. he gives you a different perspective of sibley looking at it from a 40,000 foot level and drawing those conclusions. nafta the is no economic tool and agreement between three countries that all need each other. and economic tool is designed -- when i do best i get the axis i want from you and you get -- and nothing to do with border security. betty: even though it is for trade in that light. looking back, you agree there are parts of nafta that haven't worked? anyrd: you can go through trade agreement and that would be true, and i'm sure it is true with nafta. betty: does it need to change is

the question? howard: i'm the one unintended consequence, and is worth some of administration officials are wrong. mexico is hurt see the family by nafta in the agricultural area. they never recovered from that and will not recover now, so i do know if renegotiating in any certain terms is going to change much. that theu think ministrations approach to china has been a smart one in chinese trade? howard: not you're going to ask about china. are told betty, you have to ask her about china. [laughter] -- get have to go back to the 1950's to find when agriculture do not have a surplus in trade in the u.s.. agriculture is the backbone of trade in the u.s., you start a trade war with china, agriculture will lose index trade war.

that was what i believe. they are an important market for us. as far as i can comment on agriculture, i think it could be very hurtful to the u.s. companies and farmers. betty: every year we see each other at the berkshire meeting, that is a month away now. every year investors wonder, when are we going to see howard more and more? they think about warren buffett and a next generation, are you ready for a more prominent role? howard: there is no reason for me to take a promise role until my that is not there. the prepared to do whatever board asked me to do, and if they asked me to take that role i will step into it willingly and with plenty of energy. betty: how do you see issues that you are passionate about fitting into your role? howard: i have to make a change. that is pretty evident. there are things i could not do for a short period of time.

stepping into that role -- you're going to have a ceo running the business and my role will be in a short transition and doing what i can do to support the ceo and what the board directs. i have to give everything up because it is not a full-time job. betty: in many ways in respect to carry on the culture as well. howard: that would be the single biggest factor. is always a pleasure to see you, i wish it was more often. howard: you can ride along in illinois. i want to rescue. [laughter] don't worry. betty: howard, thank you so much. be sure to check out his book. can get a roundup of that story and many more to get going on

it did it get that wish? they wanted a low drama day and the markets delivered for them. spotify went public to this unusual route of a direct listing. the valuation for this company is the key difference between an ipo and a direct listing. it was set by supply and demand this morning before the open. it is typically first decided by the company and its advisor. by the market dynamics and the stock took about three hours to open this morning. 165 $.9n open price at a share. that traded ready flat. more than $10 a share from that open price until late in the day. we did see it fall off and slid down to a closing price of $149 and one cent. 10% below the opening price. it people say they basically

kicked all the boxes that they were looking for for a successful day. the one caveat is probably volume. to notmportant for them have buyers for the shares but existing shareholders that wanted to sell. shares,pen, 5.6 million about 30 million shares. a tick below where i know folks were hoping for as they get this stock going in trading. they wanted it to look like a run-of-the-mill trading day.

here on out, you wanted to keep trading. they will be looking for is the volatility if supply was a lot lower. aere could have been a bit of liquidity squeeze today, driving up that valuation. folks will be looking at this and judging it on the fundamentals. you already have the analyst coming in and looking at this company. there were five by ratings on it and folks are looking at the business of this music streaming business. they get closer to profitability. he cut spotify is frankly a new type of business model for streaming music and one of the only pure play music business is that the investor community can actually take a public stake in. very interesting times and back to fundamentals. it we are in san francisco on spotify. and other company making headlines for the wrong reasons.

company was doing to make a last-minute push and rally employees to encourage them to prove the heaters wrong, in their words. bit ofso did a little shifting of the model s and model x workers over to the model three line. betty: the question is, can they keep it up? >> they mentioned over the last seven days, they stood by their target to reach a 5000 a week rating in the second quarter. there is some skepticism out there about the likelihood that the company will get there. even analysts that are bullish about the company's share price the last couple of days and expecting it to bounce back. rate they will reach that sometime in the second half as

opposed to some time in this quarter. talk to usetty: about u.s. auto sales and a jump here in march. what was behind that? >> gm and fiat chrysler were the big beats of the month. it may have something in common, fresh suv path to sell. the new chevy traverse and chevy equinox are doing extremely well. fiat chrysler has totally retooled plants here in the u.s. for making cars that weren't selling very well. shifting over to making jeeps and taking time to bear some fruit. it was an 18 month streak. they broke that streak in a big way this month. so you really saw jim and fiat chrysler carry the day.

haidi: i'm haidi lun in sydney. betty: i'm betty liu in new york and you're watching daybreak us try a. the new york fed getting a new boss. it john williams replacing bill dudley, becoming one of the officials inwerful the federal reserve system. our global economics and policy editor kathleen hays here with more. was controversy about john

williams and rumors about him becoming the president of the new york fed. >> he is. a big bill in reserve system and something that people are watching for any influence it may have on policy because the new york fed has selected san francisco fed president john ym's to replace bill dudley. bill is retiring this summer and rumored that john williams was in the running. we now know he certainly was. let me remind everyone why the fed's position is important. first among equals. among the presidents 12 rotate devote every year. vice chairman of the fomc. that much closer to the chair him or herself. oversight of the big wall street banks conduct open market operations in this will become a more important policy tool as the fed exits from a big balance sheet. to the table,ring

john williams? he's been applauded as a top monetary economist. people say he lacks market experience. in 2002 anded became the research had in 2009. president of the bank replacing janet yellen. are starred that neutral rate concept which is key to monitoring policy now. a proponent of the inflation target re-think. is not a banker. he lacks market expertise. and of course, this is an important position because they oversee the big banks. to the extent that he has some say in this conversation. feeling he's doing is out important positions. with somebody who he thinks can

advise him on policy and someone that he's worked with. he's a member of the board of governors. this is john williams. >> what has been the reaction so far? >> i would say, certainly, from the fed, very positive. jay powell praised john williams for his insight and wise guidance. janet yellen strongly supports him in this position for his advice in the crisis. it's been controversial, though. so many people are criticizing the fed for a lack of diversity. a woman?ut why not a person of color? and a pool ofttee 60 candidates, 30 of them were not white male economists. another part of the controversy is that wells fargo that had a

problem is part of the san francisco fed district. the fed has oversight over wells fargo. people point out it is very complicated. there was some fraud involved, people did not know what was going on. ultimately, the fed regulates the biggest bank so it is hard blame on john volumes. at the san francisco fed is where williams was before he became president. a woman that people say is a strong candidate phil john diversity aside, this is what people care about, interest rate hike, right? kathleen: is he a hawk, a dove, or a centrist? some things. let's take a look. he's in favor of three or four interest rate hikes.

it kind of makes him a centrist. we have seen here on daybreak a stronger before. a former fed economist. he things williams is pragmatic. he push for quantitative easing and aggressive measures in the crisis as the economy strengthened and inflation, he push for interest rate hikes. if you look at his view of the neutral rate, maybe it is lower than people think. so he thinks that rates are going to stay lower for longer also because williams has mentioned that inflation goes above target if he needs to. chris think maybe it will be easier. as president of the new york fed, he will probably have even more influence is a thought leader and as a policy leader than he has had and all of the previous years. a very important and very interesting appointment. one i think everybody will be watching very closely.

kathleen, thank you very much. kathleen hays our global economics and policy editor. china needs to take steps to address global concerns about his trade practices. exclusively toke bloomberg hours before the u.s. issued its $50 billion tariff hit list for tariffs. >> it is unfortunate trade tensions are rising where global -- for the first time in a long --e, trade is glowing growing faster. it is spreading recovery around the world. the trade tensions, they arrive because people feel as though trade is unfair. it the advantages being gained by other countries. and that is causing them dislocation. we need to understand that dissatisfaction that is leading to these trade actions has a

reason. thehe same time, we think differences should be settled through cooperation and through dialogue. and that is the way to make sure that trade continues to grow. that market access increases. but on a fair basis. would think the u.s. has a point when it comes to china. it may not be the most appropriate. david: the u.s. is not alone in being concerned about chinese trade practices. if you look at recent statements by their premier, they it is not athat globally significant factor when they were a smaller economy 15 or 20 years ago. something that needs to be addressed. the time has come and they need to globalization. that is why they've had this spectacular growth and they will

have a strong future. what they need is globalization that is durable and that means finding a way to have free and fair trade, to get along with their trading partners. ande see major reactions i'm wondering, do you think we will get a reprise. and what are the longer term in longer-term- implications? david: what we can expect to see is that with all of the monetary accommodations and efforts to get through central bank targets , back through normal inflation. this accommodation has led to rapid growth in credit. more vulnerability and more risk. these vulnerabilities are bound to lead to some or volatility. it's a good thing for markets to become accustomed to that. to figure out how to react to that. there is no reason to expect at

this point there will be problems. a normalization of monetary policy at the united states has been fixed interest rate increases and has occurred without any significant negative effects. surely people need to be alert to the fact that there are financial vulnerabilities, and there is likely to be volatility. that was an exclusive interview with david lipton, the first managing director of the imf saying that china does need to look at its trade practices. we've had a very strongly worded response from beijing on this u.s. tariff. targeting industries that beijing his a great deal about. it strongly condemning and opposing u.s. tariffs and also saying -- betty, this is probably the strongest wording in terms of reciprocation or retaliation. china planning reciprocal measures on u.s. goods to the same scale according to the chinese state media.
