it also bears emphasizing that eme's themselves have made considerable progress in reducing vulnerabilities since 1980's and 1990's. many eme's have improved their policy frameworks while adopting more flexible exchange rates which provides better insulation from external unanswered shocks. corporate debt with limited debt service capacity has been rising in eme's as shown in figure seven. this rise has been limited and has begun to reverse as stronger global growth has pushed economics. i do not dismiss the risks emanating from policy normalization. some investors may not be well-positioned for a rise in interest rates, even as markets

widely dissipate. future conditions may surprise us. linkages among monetary policy, asset prices in the mood of global financial markets are not fully understood. noted thaters have u.s. monetary policy influences capital flows through its effects on looser policy leading to more positive sentiment in markets. while those channels may well thatte, research suggests actions by major central banks account for a small fraction of global financial volatility and capital flow movements. risk sentiment will bear close watching as normalization proceeds around the world. the question is, what can the financialfoster stability and economic growth as normalization proceeds?

we will continue to communicate our policy strategy as clearly as possible to help align expectations and avoid market disruptions. we will continue to help build resilience in the financial system to support mobile efforts to the same. -- to do the same. cooking thanks so much -- >> thanks so much. i will turn to the bif. >> thank you very much. you forlike to thank inviting me to this event but for eight years, it is a very good tradition that you have kept it going. value to has a lot of our understanding of key issues. with oneike to start comment on the presentation.

it was a force. francine: we are hearing from jay powell, the chair of the federal reserve speaking. what we heard from jay powell is financial markets have gotten the message on your central banks land for gradual interest rate increases. he said they should not be surprised by the actions. to put it into context, he says the market is now well aligned with the fed's rate and dot plots. dimon, heard from jamie what do the markets make a volatility? we need to look at the some the financial conditions and the tightening of these positions since august 2017. garzarelli, great to have you on the program. we were listening together.

he is basically trying to reassure the markets that they are there -- that if they go. they are very well-positioned. are they taking too much notice of the market? or is the market taking too much but notice desk too much notice of jay powell? francesco: every central bank has taken notice of the market. these times of uncertainty and with high asset price violations, the concern is moving too abruptly in generating abrupt change. they are all trying to does the retreat of monetary stimulus in a general way. the market for this year is fairly aligned with the fed's dot plot, particularly if you add on the s curves, the term premium which we know is negative.

throwing from his speech, an interesting set of remarks pertains to the connection between bond markets and different monetary policies around the world. francine: is there anything markets are misunderstanding about the fed? it was interesting to hear chair powell talk about dot plots. francesco: it is there. it is another piece of information that the market closely looks at. particularly given there's a lot of macro uncertainty, people are trying to piece out from how the fed sees the world, more information to be gleaned. that is why we look at dot plots. the difficulties is the terminal dots. lookine: how much do you at financial positions? let me bring out a chart. conditions titus

since august 2017. what does that tell us? francesco: the fed has more room to normalize rates. the terminal rate debate is formed from this chart. time, fed hikes another that in my book means the market can tolerate even higher cash rates. therefore, it will adjust the endpoint for the policy normalization. francine: as we were saying, we spoke to jamie dimon a little bit earlier on and he said it is possible that u.s. growth and inflation could be strong enough the fed to raise interest rates further than many anticipate. it would be wise to bear for benchmark yields to rise. >> someone asked me about what are the odds of a recession. it is 100%.

the question is when. the american economy is strong. household formation is going up, houses in short supply. the capital markets are wide open. there is less leverage. it looks like 2007. things are twice the capital, twice liquidity. america looks pretty good. yield.yond the we had 20% growth over nine years. the nine years is really good. the 20% is really bad. it should've been 40% over a shorter time period. it looks like it has links to go. other things happen, it will not happen exactly the same. the rest of the world is doing better. japan, 1.5%. europe, 1.5% of proximally. it is 1.5%.

europe for the last 10 years was 0%. that is a positive. americas in pretty good shape and you got some benefit of regulatory reform some benefit of tax reform. those things will drive growth a little bit. cu i read your note to clients in april. you said one of the biggest risks is underestimating the ability or the potential of the fed raising rates more aggressively. inflation could rear its ugly head. we have oil at $70. >> get to prepare for all possibilities. it is a possibility that growth accelerates and inflation accelerates. expect the fed raises rates more than you expect. year.ht force the 10 you can deal with 4% bonds. if it is because america is strong and healthy, i would call

it like normalization. the government in total, the 1.25" --ould go past those things may cause more volatility, higher rates in a way that we do not understand because we never had qe or reversal. we are growing. i always try to keep a view on both. the financial markets are one thing, they fluctuate. rates go up and down. what matters to most of the world, including the government's, is jobs, wages, stability and the economy. not necessarily the markets. francine: that was jamie dimon talking about rates and yields an interview. us get back to francesco garzarelli. just let's get back to francesco garzarelli. the concern is we focus so much on 4%.

if you look at 3%, it has taken 17 months to get their. -- to get there. do we need more sustained -- do we need 3% before we start thinking about 4%? francesco: when we look back at the tapes, we had janie rates above 3% in the context of global rates being in a different place. that needs to be taken into consideration. i disagree with the 4% call. have as to me that you missing ingredient which is bund and the gge is if you're willing to entertain -- the j ge is. if you're willing to entertain the tapering, it is possible. we need to have those ingredients in place. francine: how long will that take?

we are looking at the end of a 30 year bull market. these things are very difficult to predict. going back to 1951, the transfer of the epo has been ever going down since 1984. when can we hear about 4%? in the next six months when you say there is a repricing of jgb's. francesco: i don't have 4% in my 10 year forecast. the reason is the ecb will keep policy rates very low, even after removing the qe. the qe fx will stay in the price of for as long as they do not shed the balance sheet expansion that they built over recent years. that shapes off the 10 year bond. hence i don't think the

treasuries will have the power on their own to go much above 3.5%. that is the lay of the land for what we know today. when we look at that chart, the past decade, it is been characterized by very stable inflation expectations around 2% . activity has gone down, so that is why we have lower rate -- lower ranges -- lower wages. something fundamentally has not changed in the price. it has been flat for a long of time. just for a long the oh of time -- for a long period of time. we will have a smaller output gap in the world. we have commodity prices rising. the best you get in wage growth , germany, u.k., u.s.

there is room to grow to 3% from their. -- from there. francine: stay with surveillance. decision day for trump. the president will announce if you will leave the eu raonic -- the iranian deal or not. will italy's five-star movement abandoned its efforts to form a government? could the country be headed for another election? we discussed that a little bit later. -- we discussed that a little bit later. this is bloomberg. ♪

francine: economics, finance and politics. this is "bloomberg surveillance." let's get straight to our top story and it is a deadline date for the iranian deal.

trump says he will announce his decision at 2:00 p.m. westin time. -- washington time. the dumbest of deals and one of the weakest contracts i have ever seen of any kind. we are not going to sign deals where we have four prisoners over there and they are still there and we don't even ask -- one of them is there is a christian. the all think is insane. the iran deal is one of the worst and most open sided transactions. the united states has ever entered into. frankly, that deal is an embarrassment to the united states and i don't think you have heard the last of it, believe me. >> in the event we are not able to reach a solution working with congress and our allies, then the agreement will be terminated. it is under continuous review

and our participation can be canceled by me as president at any time. >> you are not going to be restarting anything. restarting, they are going to have big problems, bigger than ever had before. francine: let's get more from andrew barton. if you listen to a lot of the rhetoric from france and others, do we assume that trump will pull out of the deal? is it 70/30? andrew: that collection of clips that you played was pretty good. if you -- you have to take trump at his word. in the past he said similar things like this and they are not bluffs. he has followed through. i think of macron who was just there. he came back and is take away was look, we fully expect to walk away from the iranian nuclear deal.

i think you've got to take him at his word. francine: there were a couple of things when the president macron went to washington and talk about possible second record. what can we hear from the andrew: we have been doing a lot of talking about that today in the newsroom, kind of strategizing the way that it might play out. i see for options. the deal is dead. europe and iran find some way to make the deal survive. he will come out and say something but he will not give us any details. you are left scratching your head to try and decide what it all means. the curveball he might come out and say, this is the worst you'll ever and iran is in violation of it, so we are going to stay in the jcpoa but we are going to go to the dispute mechanism and call them out on it.

they could be the worst case for iran. the u.s. has not walked away but it makes life difficult for iran from the inside. you have the possibility of sanctions. we have no idea what he is going to say but he is going to say something today which will not be good for the iranian nuclear deal. francine: andrew, thank you so much. how important is the president's decision for an -- four markets? reaction, let's look at oil and whether this will have an impact. it has had an impact in the last couple of weeks. i want to bring you to my chart. is higher.ice of oil depending on what we hear today, how big of a move can we get on oil? francesco: look, it is hard to say. i would suggest that the movements we saw so far in oil

have a very strong basis. there has been inventory draw, , we big demand forcing this had venezuela already in play. that party is in the price itself. importantly, head of the opec meeting, the enforcement of the quota has been very strict. all this adds up and again, in my mind, if we are at 70 with these conditions, if you introduce another source of uncertainty around this situation in iran, that could create further outside -- further upside to crude. the point shown buyer chart is the fundamentals, the geological fundamentals for oil is more in the 60 range. that is why the market will

gravitate toward that price point. term, therehe near is this political stuff to navigate. francine: how do you deal with the clinical stuff? -- with the political stuff? we have policy everywhere, europe, italy. we tend to treat it as a residual because everything is human. what cannot be explained by fundamental norms tends to be bucketing as the political risk premium at what i am saying here as far as the experts at goldman suggests indicates most of the price action can be traced back to fundamentals. fundamentals, hence why that could be upside. trump policy is a very difficult science. the market has formed an opinion

that the deal is really the buzz word. he wants a deal. it doesn't mean the deal has to be catastrophic. he wants something with his name attached. we see him make very strong statements and backpedal. this isthis is what partly in the price as well. francine: we are still keeping and i on what jay powell was saying at the conference organized by the swiss national bank. he is flanked by the dis. just do did he focus you focus on monetary policy or the ecb does with the possibility of the capital markets union compared to the big geopolitics of it? where do you see the main risks? francesco: we all know what short rates do, central banks know what they do. they tell us they are going to move gently all of that is small

fried. the big friday here is we are back discussing correlations in bond premium, and there is a very heavy-handed management of long dated yields. at some point, this will and. -- this will end. the fed is putting maturation back into the market that will increase what the 19 onwards. -- increase 2019 onwards. that is in big challenge for central banks alike understanding how this will play out in the international markets. as you change at these prices, what happens. francine: i will ask you about the markets but let's start by recapping the politics of italy's five-star movement. it is gearing up for fresh elections. the rival leagues struck a similar tone: for a note about just calling for another vote. -- calling for another vote.

how would markets respond if italians had back to the polls. i don't know if markets are right to ignore the italian risks. francesco: i think the markets are not ignoring the risks. that should be said up front because we are in a very low systemic risk regime in europe. within that regime, the market has been punishing italy for having worse fundamentals then spain or portugal. the spread to balloons -- spread than -- withigher italy being five times more liquid than portugal. that goes some way in saying the markets are focus on fundamentals and the politics. francine: the spirit -- the

spread between italian and 10 year, and you can argue there's been an increase in the spread. haveesco: if italy did not political turmoil, probably that spread would be 20 or 30 basis point tire. it would be on par with portugal. it would be half of the way it is versus spain. in the european context, italy is sticking out from a pricing perspective. why do we have more political risk premium because how bad the situation is. i would say in the marketplace, there is a presumption that at some point there will be a breakthrough in these negotiations, or the elections will be postponed the next year. that is the prior in many people's minds at the moment.

to thee: what happens markets if we do have elections in july? francesco: a markets will go to the announcement of the elections in july net long are not as short as it could be. that will precipitate a more abrupt price movement. francine: francisco, thank you so much for coming on. deals., diving into -- ast -- s decatur takeda agrees to buy shire. this is bloomberg. ♪

easing. show this chart -- this could be the chart of the year. i will tell you in november or december. this is the memory of 1997. wasindonesian rupiah, which rupiah, with a weaker and now we have new indonesian weakness, going back a solid 20 plus years. really something to watch. it is one of those whatever in the coal mind. the idea of little things to watch as we focus on the big picture, like draghi, kuroda, and powell. get to our other top stories. deadline day for the iranian deal. the president says he will announce his decision at 2:00 p.m. washington time. he has long derided the 2015

deal as the worst deal ever. >> it is one of the week is contracts i have ever seen. we will not sign deals where we have for prisoners over there, and they are still there, and we do not even ask them -- one of them is there because he is a christian. we have a writer. the whole thing is insane. theiran deal was one of worst and most one-sided transactions the united states has ever entered into. frankly, that deal is an embarrassment to the united states, and i do not think you have heard the last of it. believe me. in the event we are not able to a solution working with congress and our allies, then the agreement will be terminated. it is under continuous review, and our anticipation -- participation can be canceled, i

mean, as president, at any time. they will not be restarting anything. they restart, they will have big problems, bigger than they have ever had before. francine: for more on how the president's decision will impact other global leaders, we are blas and javier charles myers. if you look at oil prices, the have fallen back after donald trump tweeted he would announce dealision on the nuclear at 2:00 p.m. today. if you look at what the president has said, and that was kind of beautifully put together, he does not like this accord. is that mean we will get another deal, or is he just going to scratch this? >> i think it will be something in the middle. it is clear he is very unhappy with the deal and truly believes it is a bad deal for the united states. he has three options.

completely pull out of the deal and reimpose sanctions immediately. buy time andcan impose sanctions just on oil, which would give other countries six months to comply, or keep the status quo. i think he will buy time. he may impose sanctions on oil today, or announced that today, giving six months for other countries to comply. i think he will be able to spin that as a win. and his current cabinet composition, with a veil and bolton in the, hostile to iran bolton inmpeo and that cabinet, hostile to iran, there is the risk of potential conflicts, either by proxy in yemen and syria with iran, which is a bigger issue. francine: what does it mean for

oil? if you look of the various scenarios -- we got have the president just say i do not want the record, leaving us in the lurch as to what kind of details it means. will the price of oil move significantly on that? javier: we could see a spike in oil prices. the worst-case scenario is the united states polls are completely of the deal and onoses immediately sanctions oil supply. potentially, the option two could give breathing room for the market. if you only pulls out of the , triggering the one-month resolution mechanism, and 180 days, giving countries time to adjust to the sanctions, that could be more easily absorbed by the market. it is not only what trump is doing with iran, it is also the reaction of opec to any

potential loss of iranian oil supply. the last time this happened in 2012, saudi arabia increased production. whattime, we do not know the saudis will do, because they want higher oil prices. tom: and i think we all have a general idea in our minds of -- saudibia and fiscal arabia and fiscal dynamics around oil. i have no clue the iranian structure around this key commodity. inform us now. what is it? javier: saudi arabia needs higher oil prices than iran. northudi's need something of $85 a barrel to break even on a fiscal basis. with iran, it is something between 60 dollars and $70. room,ve it legal -- wiggle

because the financial structure of the company is opaque. but at current production levels, iran needs lower production -- tom: thank you. look for javier blas on bloomberg.com. we will continue with mr. myers advisors.global this afternoon, our coverage of the president. it is expected he will have a most important announcement. david sanger says this will be the most important policy announcement for the president in his tenure. this is bloomberg. ♪

francine: this is "bloomberg surveillance." from london and new york. the new york fed chairman spoke today at the swiss national bank at the imf conference in zurich.

>> fed policy normalization has proceeded without disruption to financial markets. figure red figures in six, expectations, seem while in line with policymakers' expect ations from the march fomc meeting, suggesting the markets should not be surprised by our actions if the market evolves in line with our expectations. with us, stephen macklow-smith of jpmorgan asset management. first of all, welcome to the program. if you look at what jp might -- jamie dimon was saying, he was focused on 4% yield. if you have a percent and folded into what jay powell was saying, which is basically they are following the guidance, and markets are getting it right. stephen: that is absolutely

right. in the background is the fact that although nominal policy has been tightened, actually, there has been no significant tightening. i looked as a press coverage the last month or so. there is a moderate deceleration in eurozone growth. the u.s. economy is about to benefit from the tax cut, which will clearly have a positive impact on growth. it is very premature to be thinking about the end of the cycle. i do not think the moves on monetary policy will accelerate that. francine: i guess you just need to take a simple bet, binary almost, which is does that that have to increase their rate of hikes? stephen: it is probably heartened by the fact that despite the economy performing well in the last two or three years, you have not seen a massive acceleration in u.s. inflation.

watching wagebly inflation closely. there are proxies you can look whether core wage inflation will be taken away. at the moment, the outlook is benign. is heartened by this and is normalizing policy in a way it would like to do, but it is not to get me tightening monetary conditions. tom: can equity investors ignore currency gyrations? stephen: in the short-term, probably not. in the medium-term, you have to have a view about currency direction if you're going to decide how to allocate assets across the world. if i was to take the bones out of your question, you're probably looking at a sharp rally in the dollar. if you pick out the narrative

from the first quarter, one of the things we saw the first three weeks of january was further exhalation of the euro upwards against the dollar, which started to spark concerns in people's minds about the andction of the eurozone also european earnings. but with the dollar rallying very sharply in the last two to three weeks, those worries appear to have receded. interesting is i just did a study of 10 currency commercial break, and a lot of these is too standard deviation-y, where we start to click into moves. this jpmorgan assume the stronger dollar continues? stephen: in the short-term. one of the things we have been saying the past six months is the weakness of the dollar has it being a bite

of a savior. and you see people being really short. what they needed was the dollar was to continue weakening. any strengthening in the dollar, we thought, would spark modest repositioning. , on a medium-term purchasing power basis, we have the dollar modestly overvalued, so we see it going against the euro in the end. francine: if we look at the , how much does a have to do with what jay powell was saying and how much does it have to do with the iran nuclear agreement? theou see an exit from u.s., that would likely put upward pressure on oil prices that are already on a three-year high. onphen: i will put something top of the indonesian rupiah and what jay powell said about interest rates. the dollar has acted against kerry for the last 18 months. a change in the interest rate environment, i do not think, spark a significant movement in the dollar.

the positioning i mentioned, that propels the dollar higher. i would say one of the things that has changed in the last few months fundamentally is the tax cuts coming in, with moderate the separation in eurozone. the growth differential with the united states is moving back in the u.s.'s favor. i would put that back on the table as one of the key propellants to put the dollar higher. tom: stephen macklow-smith, blending cross assets into equity exchange. on this tuesday with your first word news briefing, here is taylor riggs. taylor: the president will announce today whether the u.s. will leave the event nuclear agreement. european allies have lobbied him to stay, but the president called the agreement the worst deal ever. he says it does not do enough to address threats from iran's ballistic missile program. the u.s. and european the mets

whether anything significant would result from that. one of the biggest issues, though, is what you said -- five-star and the normal league, which emerged from the last election relatively strongly, not seeing any grounds in which to cooperate at the moment. they're looking at the electorate to say endorse us. francine: from the two main parties that did well in the last election, what is the insect -- incentive of forming a government amongst themselves? different things. stephen: clearly. but one of the things that has changed from the election is in both cases, particularly in the case of five-star, you have a much more emily and -- emily and -- emollient

focused? to me, it is very management focused, board-focused, and removed from representing shareholder rights. which is it? stephen: shareholder rights have come a long way. when we look at that small and mid-cap space, we find that their interests are aligned with us. sector, banking is now dominated by regulatory issues, particularly in italy, but if i was going to paint a positive picture for you, i would point to the fact that italy is one of the key beneficiaries of on easing from the ecb here that was lower in yields means as you read price for outstanding stock of italian government debt, you reduce interest payments. so there is a fiscal tailwind

from which to benefit. and the banking sector, one of the interesting things is the stats that people seem to know is italy accounts for one third of outperforming stocks in the eurozone. so italy is around 300 billion. but because of the changes made to a bank capital structure and ,he ability to insert capital that is now falling. about $72 billion of deals were has acted last year. this year, on the basis of what is under convert -- discussion, that is another $52 billion of npl's. the ideal picture in italy is changing rapidly. francine: thank you. stephen macklow-smith, of jpmorgan asset management, stays with us. bloomberg users can interact with the charts shown using gtv

will indicate for the president the future of the majority? kevin: i am watching west virginia. it is fascinating. you have interesting democratic congressional primary races. notice how folks are looking at what conor lamb did in southwestern pennsylvania the other month running as a centrist democrat and unifying unions, speaking to the union base and trying to speak to them in a trumpian tone. that is something former vice president joe biden will be watching and will be the cookie-cutter model for the midterms and the 2020 cycle. it is those working-class voters that matter. tom: i spoke to patrick morrissey in the middle of nowhere in west virginia, gst over theis an

president to ohio. is this a referendum on president trump or more nuanced than that? kevin: i think it is more nuanced than that. just with mr. morsi, you have to notice the angst in the republican base. people are trying to position themselves as political outsiders, and they are using president trump's model to do that. there is no better thing to do whether you are a democrat or republican then running as an outsider. republicans are running against the notion that congress is so unpopular. tom: thank you for the briefing. we look forward to your reporting today on iran and tonight on the midterm elections. with us now, dana tannenbaum of pwc, i have eight things to talk about, and it is not the sanctions on ohio or

pennsylvania. explain how the iranian sanctions are different from the russians sanctions. sanctions in the relief in the last two years has been a deal to push out the ability for iran to have a functioning nuclear weapon for sanctions really to open the european market. this was the relief of so-called secondary sanctions. these were more sweeping. the russian sanctions have been more targeted in oil and gas. tom: the iranian wants were not -- ones were not targeted. not focused on individual entities. they were focused on sectors. tom: if we assume the president walks away from the obama deal what does it mean to you? >> walks away. there is a lot of rhetoric.

tom: what does it mean? >> exactly. the president can decide not to extend the waivers, but that does not reimpose sanctions. by walking away from the deal, it starts a lengthy negotiation between the p5 plus one to decide what the way forward is. there are a variety of steps that would have to be taken. my prediction is this will largely be focused on the most noise with minimal impact, and the path of least resistance that would garner the most support is a focus on the ballistic missiles that iran still has, which have been out of the scope of the deal so far. francine: if you look at the sanctions from the start, could you argue that the only sanctions that really worked

where the u.s. sanctions against -- and if you look at how that company was shut out of the market, could they do something similar? >> they did. this is what drove iran to the negotiating table, the secondary sanctions that forced european companies out of the market. that was powerful. that cut any institution off from doing business with both iran and the united states. that largely worked. to reimpose those after several large european companies have entered the market and which have large operations in the united states would have implications on the market beyond this deal. francine: can i have more teeth than what they had in the past? >> if you put the teeth back, that would be enough to spur a

behavioral change. the challenge is all the evidence to date has shown that iran has complied the deal. provisionck wa --t would reimpose prior still speaks to the deviation from the existing deal. tom: lets him appease the base. how does the president today at 2:00 p.m. save face? >> it is going to be focused on an expensive package to take the ballistic missiles that iran has and are outside of the jpoa focus on that. there are a number of trump held states that have european operations domiciled in them.

this could turn on the u.s. and forced an additional trade war. tom: between who? >> the eu nations and the united states. there is an idea today to go the other direction where the eu could force its own member states to make a choice. tom: johnson does a charm offensive over the last 48 hours, writing up in the new york times and other issues as well. who are you watching in the eu who could really go after the president? >> i think it is merkel. there is very limited support in the european business community to amend this deal. there are a variety of large global companies that have and haveeentered iran a lot to lose if sanctions come back. francine: when do sanctions work

at their best? is it when the person at the top is weak or strong? what do we know about the iranian political system? if this has teeth and is too aggressive, do they back out? >> you are right. you have seen a different offensive from the iranian government to speak to their compliance with the deal and that it is actually the u.s. that is out of compliance with their portion of the deal. this deal was focused on one issue, but it is being completed with another, that inflated -- is being conflated with another. that is the complication. there have not been a lot of specifications about what is wrong with this worse deal ever.

francine: thank you so much. pwc globalebaum, financial services sanctions leader. holds,y the deal andident trump hedges, three we cannot figure out whether they are in or out, and four the u.s. exits the deal with punitive measures. bought more than $9 million of tesla shares on monday. his stake is approaching percent. the purchase -- 20%. after --ase comes days joining us is our global team had a new street research.

like elon musk now like him even more because it was us versus them. a lot of shareholders probably want nothing to do with this company. >> thank you. rightd put it into the context. this transaction is $9 million. owns $10 already billion in tesla shares. it is not a massive move in overall ownership. it was kind of a statement. make ont he wanted to -- call last week is against which is about the cash burn. about $1ny is burning billion per quarter at the moment.

elon musk says it will be able to break into positive cash flow next quarter. the bears challenge that position. francine: talking about why tesla should answer some of these questions that analysts were asking him. wantquestions do you still answered from tesla? >> i think it is always good to do your best as a ceo to reassure your shareholders. the reason why elon musk decided to pass on these questions last he saidprobably because he had answered these questions simply in the past. explainedompany has for more than nine months is that the company is burning cash today because it is not ramped up the model three yet, but as

it is ramping up, cash flow is going to turn positive. the math is very simple. at 67.reaks even this is what analysts have said already. he is ramping up cars to 5000 and eight. -- a day. tom: do have a storied career at sanford bernstein. financials ofhe tesla? can you analyze tesla on a traditional financial basis? >> i have no confidence with the disclosures of the company. finance is.t

you always want to get more information. when i reviewed the financials of tesla today, i can see enough that withconfident 60,000 units produced per quarter, tesla breaks even with cash flow. from what i have seen so far with the disclosures is enough to build my convictions. tom: let's leave it there. greatly appreciated. now, much more coming up. let's go to taylor riggs. taylor: in armenia, the opposition leader who led weeks of protests has been elected prime minister. supporters are hoping he can do something about widespread corruption and poverty. maintainsty party control of parliament.

european allies of all body president trump to stay in the iran nuclear agreement. the president has called the deal the worst deal ever. u.s. and european diplomats are trying to work outside agreements that would address his concerns. the announcement is due at 2:00 p.m. eastern . a wall street watchdog is putting over accusations of physical abuse. new york state attorney general eric schneiderman resigned last night. a new yorker article of for women claimed physical abuse. ae government is forecasting $1.6 billion surplus in 2020, australia's first since the global financial crisis. cutrs will get a modest tax

are the odds of recession? i said it is 100%. the question is when. the american economy is strong. houses are in short supply, which is positive for the economy. the capital markets are wide open. there is much less leverage in the financial system than in the past. have twice the capitals and twice the liquidity. the way to look at the recovery is to look beyond one year. we had that 20% growth over nine years. the nine years is really good. the 20% is really bad. it should have been 40%. that is part of the reason wages did not go up and all of these things. this has links to go. a year or two. the rest of the world is doing better.

europe 1.5 approximately. >> china getting out of his funk? >> i don't know. it is 1.5%. the last year it was 0%. america is in pretty good shape. you have some benefit of regulatory reform. you have some tax reform. that all drives growth. >> i heard after the quarterly earnings in april that one of the biggest risks is underestimating the potential of the fed raising rates more aggressively. inflation could rear its head. is this a wory? >> you have to prepare for all possibilities and probabilities. you have to anticipate the fed raises rates more than you expect, which might force the 10-year up and not down like in

the past. you could easily deal with 4% bonds. if it is because america is strong and healthy, that is more like normalization. at the end of the year, the government total could pass for hundred billion per quarter. that is a lot. those things make us more volatility, higher rates. we have never had qe. we have never had reversal. there is more growing. i always try to keep a view in both. the financial markets fluctuate. rates go up or down. commodity prices go up or down. stability, the economy, not necessarily the markets. francine: that is jamie dimon, jpmorgan chief executive. joining us now, jacques

rousseau, clearview energy partners managing director global oil and gas. let me start off with julian emanuel. if you look at what jamie dimon was saying on the 4% you don't can we start thinking about 4% if we have not even touched 3%? we touched it one day in the last 18 months. maryn: that is an external caleb -- extraordinary tale of events that would likely to destabilize markets. the 30-year bond bull market 2016.in july the pathis one of growth. it is well for us to remember

that the reason the fed hikes is to maintain the course of recovery. it is not generally to crush for inflation. tom: it has always been this way. are higher rates good for equities? that has been the debate forever. it always wins out. julian: it tends to be a tipping point. the other thing we know if you look at the cycles, the fed can tendshike too much -- to hike too much. at this point in the curve, the greatest growth potential since the fed started liking is still ahead of us. higher rates are fine. tom: let's turn to the oil ousseaus and mr. r

of clearview energy. what are you listening to today in regards to the president and the oil business? jacques: that is a good question. the whole situation with iran is complex. you need to focus on the level of operation with the european -- cooperation with the european union. that could determine how much oil will be off of the market. francine: how much do you think will be off of the market? i am looking at the structure. jacques: what you are seeing now is the big issue is venezuela. that is the reason oil prices dollarsed up 20 per barrel. they are taking barrels off the market. what is happening with iran is still up for debate.

that could be a few hundred thousand barrels per day or nothing. when we go into that speech by president trump, there are four ways he could deal with iran. what do you think is the likely scenario? we even talked when president macri on was in washington -- of an was in washington separate agreement. be a waiverre could on the sanctions, but unless the european union steps into this, don't expect much oil to be taken off of the market. francine: we are on a new level on oil. you are very good at synthesizing the macro into the micro. does the macro and micro analysis get you to $80 a barrel? jacques: i think it could in the

second half of the year. the thing to focus on is global inventories, down 5% in 2017 and declining in 2018 also. the first half of the year is typically when oil inventories get built, and then demand goes up and inventories go down. because of venezuela, we are seeing a decline in inventories all around. in: will we see a decline inventories globally? are there other venezuelas out there? jacques: one is enough. producing,a was supply would equal demand. , we are seeingla a decrease in inventories. withwe will continue julian emanuel.

whitaker and julian emanuel. thank you for being on the program. the last time we talked about this was three weeks ago. the cards have changed. what does comcast have to give up to satisfy regulators? >> if you were to take the u.k. in terms of sky, the answer is very little. if you look at the comcast announcement today that they will not only sport verse -- newspapers in five years, that was a given. the issue would probably be more in the states, given the fact that comcast has a variety of assets through nbc universal on the tv and content side, that might be where there could be an issue. what else is going on in the states at the moment is the at&t and time warner case. that has implications for this bid, what comcast would do if

they blocked it. if there is going to be any regulatory investigation, the issue will be the u.s. francine: is there a danger that comcast will overpay for this asset because they had disney at their doorstep as a direct competitor? >> there is those a risk when you have two major companies that can leverage and get themselves a lot of my that potentially you get into -- money that potential you get into a bidding war. when it comes to sky, the crucial thing is the distribution power it gives you. it gives you the number one pay-per-view player in the u k, italy, germany, operations in switzerland and spain. the only major market you don't have is france. from the european distribution site, this is an asset that once

it is gone, you cannot get it anywhere else. tom: if this was flipped, if it was a united kingdom or other conglomerate asset, americans would be hysterical. >> the chances would be quite small. if you take those respective markets, you have the u.k. were sky has been effectively controlled by fox for a number of years. there has always been the murdoch angle on the left in politics. probably germany would be relatively ok. germany might be slightly more
