there is an expectation they are starting to look at how they will exit from their gargantuan monetary policy at some point. it could be happening within a year or two where they start to tweak their settings as growth is broadly on track, even though they don't remain anywhere near their inflation targets. , a differentngland dynamic there. they are expected to tighten policy. it could be a case of one and done. the ongoing debate around brexit and the european union. there is a view the boe can be on the sidelines. then you have the fed. of all of the central banks, they have the most consistent narrative. growth is on track, doing well. inflation is around where they wanted. wage growth still is not.

the labor market seems to be in strong condition. , and it will track be interesting to see if they signal any more hawkish outlook. the broad picture will be central banks dealing with growth, it will very much be on a case-by-case basis. growthspeaking of robust , you have got to talk about that u.s. gdp print from friday. the takeaway seems to be that will not change the outlook. >> no, it is interesting. if they were more hawkish than anticipated and said the fed really has to move to get ahead of the curve on inflation, that that -- but i do not think print would have surprised observers. the fed is well-positioned. i have anticipated that your directory the u.s. economy is on -- the trajectory the u.s. economy is on.

a more hawkish outlook would ricochet around the world, markets in asia are closely watching where the fed will go. i think right here, right now, emerging markets are pricing the fed. to get ae a surprise more hawkish turn from their meeting this week. nejra: thank you so much to bloomberg's chief asia correspondent live from hong kong. is the us now on the set head of investment strategy at barclays. happy monday. i hope you are not melting, we have had rain over the weekend. it has been a big week in terms of central banks. which of the central banks have the at -- the potential to move the markets most this week? thing, aboutsting the boj, is that it is actually

policy may have to stay lower for longer is the problem they have got. inflation may be being kept low by rising volatility and other factors, they are having to look at some of their stimulating effects of monetary policy on the economy. this may be one of the things i've talked about. that is one of the things people are looking at the moment. >> basically what they are having to balances the currency on one side, but on the other, supporting the bank. >> the banks, there are some stories they are worrying about excess risk-taking among some of the banks. that may be something they are focusing on. inflation is, nowhere near their target. they are really just trying to work out keeping monetary policy very low. nejra: do we get more fixed-rate

operations like we had in the past month? or do they give a little more flexibility around that tenure target? >> we do not think they will. it's one of the things people are looking at. we had that tweak from last week. that was one of the things people are talking about. whether that would have ripples in the rest of the bond market. our view is that is exaggerated. main monetary policy thing to focus on is still the u.s.. aat is where you got plausible consistent narrative towards raising interest rates. you have still not got much more since 2000 -- since 2016 have rises. large basis point whether they're going to have to step up the price is a temporary factor. >> on that point with the gdp, ongoing task, is this as good as it gets?

-- i am going to ask, is this as good as it gets? estimating as are bits are added because of the soybean surge trying to get ahead of the tariffs. nejra: the question is whether that is going to sustain. tax cut sugar exits the economy's bloodstream, you have got an underlying trend of real growth. that is what consumption should be growing at, roughly speaking. your trend is lower, that's the reality. you're going to have a lot of payback next quarter. exports are going to go the other way. soybeans are going to be we can from that. investment should still be strong. we will find out more about that wednesday or thursday, whenever the manufacturing is. i gives us a good lead on

investment. that will remain robust. interesting as well was the rates market did not seem to believe this level of growth would sustain. you saw the 10 year treasury yields drop. if you look at eurodollar futures, this is more towards the fed stopping its hiking cycle. those went negative, suggesting a rate cut. let me show you this chart. it is the move index. treasury volatility coming down. any chance this could pick up? >> you got inflation prints. the major thing you are at the moment in terms of a pickup is really more inflation surprise. you have not seen much. you want to be careful that forecasting inflation to knowledgeably. but it looks like your pce is going to come more or less in line. probably not just yet, but certainly if you look at what's

happening in the u.s. economy, you got full employment. you are adding a little spending, a load of tax cuts. -- a load of spending, a load of tax cuts. -- is economic models are right. of course, we have heineken numbers we brought you at the top of the show. another headline to update you on. heineken cutting its guidance to about 20 basis point decrease. later this morning, we will be speaking to the heineken cfo. she will be joining the team on bloomberg markets, "the european open." after facebook and twitter tumbled, is the worst setting in for faang? this is bloomberg. ♪

context of aem and european underperformance this year in absolute terms, that is what the chart shows clearly. in europe and em, two of our favorite areas, these are coming from already inexpensive levels. it suggests that, if some of the fears do not materialize, this present opportunity. moving beyond what is happening in the current, earnings expectations rising and reports coming in as good, look, the trade war wealth trash all of that -- the trade war will trash all of that. nejra: have investors been focusing too much on the trade war, the prospect of it, at the expense of looking at the fundamentals? will: it is one of the difficult things. economists have done a simple assumption. onyou have that much tariff

that much import, that affects the gdp. difficult to account for uncertainty and the effects that has on investment. it is very difficult. , becausextent, maybe of the amount of the headlines, the tariff war grabs, it is an interesting story, it may mean it gets exaggerated in our minds relative to the frontal impact and the likelihood of it actually occurring. tune out the trade war. eventually, hopefully, the economic and elliptical celfin -- political self-interest will cause a de-escalation and the fundamentals will shine through. nejra: we have already talked about the fact that your long tech, constructive on banks. but you're also long-run industrials. versusn the u.s., europe, u.s. industrials have

credit, stocks, fx. we are focused on the equity story. the valuation could get a little bit extra. you have stronger earnings growth in the region. that means the stocks are placed to do it. towards the ma. we do taiwan, offshore china. we look at that in the context of what is going on in the world. nejra: what about turkey? will: turkey is a difficult one. there's worries about the central bank independence story. you have law changes, which has given the president mark powers. there are change -- more powers. there are changes to the economic team. everyone is worried about what you will see in terms of central-bank policy. relyig thing is we can't long-term on politicians to make the right decisions at the right time, the painful decisions at

the right time. it is not in their interests. the incentives are wrong. that's why we are weighted by the u.s. and why people worry about turkey. you have the gathering affects of the lira selloff in the first half. you should have a tougher second half in the turkish economy anyway. this is not an area we will be singling out for investment risk. nejra: just because of the insurgency, you would stay away, looking for an opportunity to get in on lira weakness or any signs from the central bank, if there is a turnaround with an emergency rate hike. will: the more noble investors are looking at the bank that it may be and so on and so on. for us, you've got to be noble. what we like and -- you have to be nimble. what we like about asia, you have better diversification and strong macroeconomic stability in terms of policymaking. your institutional context is stronger and more positive. if you contrast that to parts of

south america, turkey, and the fragile trio, south africa, turkey and argentina, those areas really show what it means to have stronger institutions. your economies tend to grow faster and more reliably if you have stable law. those are the things we look for in that area. unfortunately, turkey is lacking in that part. nejra: this is what you will be familiar with in terms of globally and where to put your money. u.s. small-cap stocks, this has been the trade to prepare for a potential trade war, money coming in to u.s. small caps and out of emerging markets. is this overdone? will: all sorts of factors go into it. the u.s. economy is clearly humming. you haven't already healthy economic act drop. then you load -- backdrop. then you load onto a fire that doesn't really need it. one of the best ways to play

that would be your domestically small-cap arena. the difficulty in playing the trade war this way is working out your supply chains are difficult to copper order -- to categorize and predict in terms of how and what and where it falls to and he will have trouble with the cost structure. in a simplest it way, yes, the em should struggle a little bit. but our best bet is really that you will try to look through this and try not to trade it to aggressively -- too aggressively. nejra: thank you so much. we were just talking about em. let's focus on what is happening today in zimbabwe. it began voting for a new leader in a too close to call context that comes eight months after robert mcgarvey -- robert m ugabe was forced to quit. now is michael coe

bloomberg markets. us now to talk through the interview. we hear that mark carney spends 50% of his time thinking about brexit. what do we know about contingency planning? jill: this is interesting cover on how much he spends on this. we know there's quite a bit of work on the financial stability side. that is all quite public. the issue of derivatives, for instance. the sbc at the blank -- at the bank says that joins are at risk. looking at risks to financial services. on the monetary policy front, if you look at carney speeches, like the one in may, all options are still in the table. he even flag, if there is a disorderly transition to a new brexit deal, they could balance brexit-off after the

vote results when they started qe and cut rates. while the bank of england is expected to raise rates this week, all options are still on the table. there is a high level of uncertainty. nejra: the interview touches on trade, something with a lot of uncertainty. mark carney telling bloomberg that a larger increase in tariffs will have a substantial impact. we can choose the low road of a high road ofnd liberalization of global trade and services. the low road will cost jobs, growth and stability. the high road can support a more inclusive and resilient globalization. how big of a threat is a trade war for the u.k. economy? will that come up in the assessment? jill: it will be flagged as an outlook this week. the u.k. economy is a very open economy. the bank's current forecast is

expecting growth in a u.k. to the -- to pivot from consumer spending to trade and investment. that will surely be fined as a risk. that being said, since that interview, there's been some relatively positive news on the eu-u.s. trade front. that was something draghi mentioned last week. trade talks are being conducted within an existing multilateral framework. nejra: super thursday, the rate hike is priced in by the markets. but we look ahead to forecasts as well. the boe -- publishing new forecasts. mark carney mentions this. he says it is important to have. relatively clear messages. now they have to be accurate. should people in the country be oriented that rates are more likely to go up without not? yes, they should, because that

is more likely, but not at a more rapid pace. i am already getting lost. we will also hear from the neutral rate. jill: very interesting decision. at the end of the day, we are getting you forecasts. there is a rate rise coming for not typically positive reasons. the potential growth rate of the economy is now just 1.5%. growth this year is expected to be 1.4%. that is still generating inflationary concerns. it could give some indication as to where policymakers see interest rates settling, what this new normal is post crisis. that could give households some indication. if it is limited and gradual, at what point does that stop? nejra: thank you so much.

you can read that full interview conducted on june 4 in the latest edition of bloomberg markets. really worth a read, especially saying you up for a big week for central banks. on the note of a big week for central banks, are you positioning at all for any kind of ruptures in the market at the end of this week? >> i think this week we will not see anything dramatically unexpected. the u.k. looks like they will raise rates. thing jillteresting said was the commentary on where the neutral rate is. in our portfolios, we don't have a lot of exposure to gilt. but we have added a bit recently. we think longer-term interest rates will probably not move up that much, even if we have short rates rise gradually. that's because economic growth in the u.k. will probably be 1%

to 1.5%. generally, long-term interest rates tend to attract long-term growth and long-term inflation. nejra: if we rewind back to decisions we will get before the boe -- of course, we have the boj tamara and the fed on wednesday. the boj has been interesting. we really have seen market reactions quite strong in the jgb market, justin -- just on anticipation. i think they have already done probably most of what they wanted to do, which is testing with the market reaction would be. we have already stopped doing some of the longer data purchases. those have been scaled back. we expect to see the longer 9.1 or rise be at further. . in bankt expect change of japan policy.

very equity market can be fx-linked as well. so they do that, you could see a big rise in the yen, which has impacts for their exporters as well in the equity market. nejra: do you expect the yen to move higher? it has not really been acting as ace -- a trade were through the -- as a haven in the trade war drama. >> japan will ease monetary policy, but not likely to be until sometime next year. they still have quite low inflation numbers. they are not seeing a lot of wage growth. i don't think there is a ton of economic reasons they can look to to say this is the time to raise interest rates or to dramatically scale back on quantitative easing. nejra: the stock about the u.s.. the gdp print on friday got a lot of attention. is this as good as a gets on u.s. growth?

u.s. is hard to see the growth being 4% consistently for the next three to five years. nejra: what about a 3%? >> it will be difficult. there are a lot of longer-term economic factors that constrain the us economy, and all economies globally, in terms of aging population, lower road activity growth. it will be interesting to see how the fed reacts in a statement this week, what they make of the higher growth numbers. we also have a jobs report coming out on friday. of theen the state world, it is hard to see that performance repeated in the coming years consistently. nejra: what is everything you said about the boj and the fed mean for your asset allocation globally? >> we added a little bit more into government bonds recently. not in japan are in europe. but in the u.s. on the u.k.. isthink economic growth now probably about as good as it gets. that doesn't mean we have a

recession coming, but we were not -- but we are not going to 4% or 5%. dated yields will stay flat. especially in the u.s. come a few have treasury yields around 3%, that about covers inflation. so you're kind of flat in terms of real yields. treasuries can act as a good hedge if we do have more turmoil in markets. we have become a little bit less negative on bonds. i would not say where positive yet. but equity markets are in good shape. we have valuations fall this year because we have had dramatic increases in earnings growth. earnings growth in the u.s. this year. we had equity markets come down or be flat in some cases around the world. we will talk more about equities in a moment. on the bond side of things, the bond market reaction to the u.s. gdp seemed to show that investors don't see that level of growth sustaining in the longer term. do you like the longer end of the u.s. treasury curve, like

10, 30, that sort of area? >> the curve is quite flat today. you have to have longer dated bonds if you use them as a hedge. a two-year bond will hold its value, but will not do it -- do much as a hedge should something happen in markets. if you look at it that way, you have to do longer-dated bonds. this year in the u.k., we moved from shorter-dated bonds to longer dated gilts, just because we want that aspect of it. stay with us on the program. don't forget to catch our coverage of three of the world's biggest central banks this week. tomorrow, we hear from the bank of japan, a news briefing. the next day, it is the u.s.. federal reserve. on thursday, the bank of england announces its latest decision. governor mark carney gives a news briefing.
