1:13 am
the move but it would be very helpful of the curve steepen slightly for the japanese banks and it is interesting globally, we have seen this rotation going on within the growth and momentum of stocks earlier in this of is the catalyst to see people rotating out of those moving towards cyclicals. maybe the tectonic plates are shifting and this is one of the smallest. nejra: does today's decision-making more equitable? jullian: we have like them for a long time and i think the market as an on and off love affair with japan. everybody would love to own japan and see the market do well. japanese manager -- a gradual
1:14 am
build. japan is changing but it will take some china. was if we thinking got a more hawkish reaction and talk global yields rise, we would see japanese investors repatriated back into japan but what we are seeing now is something different and i am wondering if to today's decision means the 10 year treasury yield is less market yielding. jullian: i think that the treasury yield is going to be dealt trump's views on trade and we will talk about trade later. the reaction to whether or not trade drives in the short-term the stronger dollar, the t -- tariffs have an effect on the economy. the market will be focusing on

1:20 am
the south korean company's net income fell short of analyst estimates as the sluggish margin hit demand for the galaxy services. the results reflect samsung struggles ensuring its mobile business, despite resilient demand for that memory chips. that is your bloomberg business flash. nejra: julius sally, thank you. investors rushing to invest in u.s. tech stocks. and itdaq dropping started with facebook last week which saw the biggest market cap slump in history. go investors get a break when apple reports today? joining us now is shelly banjo. good to see year. it seems expectations are quite high for apple this time around. shelley: people are hoping that as expected,in
1:21 am
15%, showing another quarter good growth this year for apple. maybe a little break from all the madness and the rest the tech sector. nejra: and the iphone growth story comes to a close, what services are expected to drive growth? shelly: that is exactly right. we saw with samsung, other companies -- phones across the world are really starting to see a slowdown and it is affecting a lot of be businesses data apple has been counting on services like apple music, streaming, the app store, things like that and new products like home devices to pickup some of the slack. that is not as big of the business as the smartphones so people are going to continue to keep a close look on what is going to happen with that business by the services are showing strength and promise.
1:22 am
nejra: re: expecting to hear anything about the impact of the trade war an ample supply chain? shelly: i think that is what everybody wants to hear. apple's dead set in the center of this trade war. 20% of the business from china. they make their products in china. they have the second-most number of stores in china. if china or the u.s. really wanted to make a statement in this trade tensions, apple is the perfect lightning rod. we have not seen up a really talk about any issues they have had. tim cook has talked against tariffs. but we have not seen anything in the game yet as we have seen other companies like cte. thank you so much, shelly banjo in hong kong. julian come i have a very simple chart showing the nasdaq dipping
1:23 am
below the 50 d moving average after the losses we saw yesterday and tech providing a drag in asia. it is a technical chart. do we see further losses in tech stocks? jullian: i think it is not surprising overall that people have been taking profits. you have done well this year. people were slightly looking forward in the opinion to take an excuse. one where weto be see the best in a number of companies coming through. consequently, as we were talking maybe that was a good catalyst to see people switching across the word financials. nejra: i want to take a quote from morgan stanley, they said in a note that a just begun and the correction will be the biggest since the one we experienced in february.
1:24 am
it could have a greater negative impact on the average portfolio. the sin the next question which we can look at tech individually but what about the impact on the broader market? will it cause more generally in u.s.? jullian: i think it will interesting to see how the rotation goes but yes, we are undoubtedly in the process of seeing monetary tightening and european economies as well. this is towards the top of the cycle. it is no surprise seeing a good performance from the u.s. see profit-taking. and we will see this break in the nasdaq and that will exacerbate the movement in the short-term. nejra: would you stay positioned in tech a font individual business models?
1:25 am
jullian: tech is universal world that means it is a tech company wide brief that you need to take the individual stock and believe in long-term business models. they other companies they can invest in the future. companies like not all of things magna are talking about which is microsoft, apple, google and amazon. thee companies with business model is defensible and they can grow that and is not just driven by a fan. into will be growth areas electronic games and things like that. a lot of interesting things to look at but they are not cheap. if we see the rotation out of tech, what are the sectors likely to benefit?
1:26 am
jullian: i think, again, we have to debate today's numbers which were not great which is not good news. i think people will be looking probably to get more defensive. in the dual bulls space, you have to be careful because there are companies with a business model is not built for the 21st century. they are not the brands of that millennials and generations want to buy into. people investing in the brands have products people want to buy and moving the times. nejra: julian chilean with stays with us. up, alex schneider joins us with his first interview the day. ,e will talk about earnings business models and talk a little bit about cost on the sector and also, worse, is you on where the oil markets go from here. lots morning's to get to from the day later as well.

1:38 am
ceiling limits against they have shown europe the year, the ability to continue to grow. what we've seen is a lack of investments during low cycles and that will have an impact on the supply side. nejra: with that well above $70 a barrel, if you are experiencing and generating significant free cash flow. cash?rgaret employment and on: that is correct the back of the phenomenal growth. we have seen production quadruple and we have a scheduled project, it is going to come on stream by the in of 19. the company has seen a

1:46 am
equity valuations. > we are supposed to get the numbers today. when we started three years ago, the markets trading was the 9% of the profits. moving from a to b was key because today, we look at markets and trading -- it is driven by wealth management which is much more stable and much more predictable. absolve productivity. be there because they can grow. 17%, that is huge and they can go because they support that. --ther important result is in thetructuring unit in
1:47 am
end of 18 targets. and 40 --getting we're at 10 and 39 off leverage. done structurally. and it is so small that we can stop weighing on a results. financially, that is important. it contains more than 30 million. there were losses and 19. if we continue to grow, make the assets 7%, very few banks grow revenue. down 5%. that is positive.
1:48 am
the seventh quarter in a row we have positive growth. it is a trend but doing it quarter after quarter is very powerful. ,ore than $4 billion of profit raising revenue and reducing costs. it is going to add to our profits. once the funding truck, it is not necessary anymore. nejra: what about global markets? tidjane: global markets, it is a better.art of making it we don't think that is right. the global market tragedies not to maximize the standalone global market revenue. it is to use global market to power the division. 8% and that is
1:49 am
because we keep it under a strict cap. we could change revenue and have more capital and then you would taken alts but we have path which is the use the blue markets to serve our clients. that is working very well, . that allows us to your profit. more important government it therates a lot of -- and universal bank but it would not be there without him. and it is embedded in the outperformance that is key. we are not going back in time to find comparables. idwm -- n time did h
1:50 am
tidjane: we have created a joint venture between global markets. that is working extremely well. 25%. nejra: asset management? do you need scale to capture the passive investment? tidjane: we are very happy with asset management. profits are 25% year-over-year. we have untold stories. asset management was focused on serving the flows. what have converting proportions. --y are primarily serving when the create a new product, we will typically raise it. selling it. veryis very good and
1:51 am
profitable business and recurring income which is high-quality revenue and recurring income. very pleasing. the cost is still there. markets andto the comments. nothing could be further from the truth. we understand the difference between gross and net. i sent gross targets that make room for investment. you see 7% in the near-term a lot than expected. general a lot of expenses. and thea new system
1:52 am
understand.stry to sensitive on hearing we are achieving by not investing. tidjane talking to francine lacqua. it seems in the final stages of turnaround plan, he was francine:.up the he was pretty upbeat. to expand thet global market that they are executing. it is think orders into a 12th quarter restructuring plan. cost control, everything is fine. we see the expectations. the million-dollar question for
1:53 am
investors is is that the business model that two to three years on the line that was to work and the main question, is there a big market downturn, what impact? do outflows can anticipate because people freak out if there is a big market move, something we explored also. nejra: thank you so much, francine lacqua in zurich. let's get some final thoughts. you heard a great shot by francine. ifdering on credit suisse the final stages of the turnaround plan, is he giving investors enough reason to stay with the stock? jullian: as we briefly were discussing, people were quite cynical and when he laid out the plan, quite a lot of skepticism on whether it would work. today's numbers demonstrate in has worked. would share some clauses that
1:54 am
led to the downturn and how they whether that storm. to really prove that the model is going to work. it is a very different model and he turnaround a bank into a wealth manager and asset manager with product which is a much more profitable and stable business. let the hell it pans out. nejra: india bank has a potential market downturn. which break in the european region would fare better? jullian: i think you have to think that any of the banks that still have high dependency on trading active are going to suffer again. so, i would say to you, gina downturn, you want to make sure you have a well-funded bank with haveassets, banks that beaten to your one ratios and you get banks that is north of 10% and banks that are not too dependent on trading at the. nejra: is it positive generally knee-jerk plant in the u.s.? in the u.s., yes.
1:55 am
we like the west bank state of we think they are important and researcher in and a strong position. in europe, there is work to do. the last few days, i mean, we have had some pretty mixed signals. i think the european banks have a lot more work to do to sort out the balance sheet and cut costs. nejra: looking at the earnings season, is it an in bull market inequities? jullian: i think the market is coming to terms with the fact that assets very early on, u.s. earnings probably, this quarter will be the best the season. but i don't see a massive shakeout in markets. but i think markets will adjust
1:56 am
but outthink investors will be too concerned. the adjustment, a meaningful correction or a little bit of volatility? jullian: a little bit of volatility but a little bit of downside and i think people will move on and frozen rope remain reasonable into 2019 as soon as donald trump will predict the next quarter. nejra: thank you so much to julian chillingworth for joining us. he will be joining us on bloomberg radio today break on london to carry on the conversation with our colleagues. on banking, anyhow for joined just for exclusive for you on 9:30 a.m. u.k. time. next, second-quarter earnings and nest estimates with revenue whong estimates on the ceo

million. yield hasan's 10 yearurop dropped five basis points, the most since june 2016 in the session so we are seeing some market fallout from the bank of japan's decision. it left key interest rates unchanged while announcing policy tweaks. that is something we want to talk about with our guest, to more of the world's biggest central banks are scheduled to make policy announcements this week, tomorrow it is the u.s. federal reserve and on thursday the bank of england announces its latest policy decision and governor mark carney gives a news briefing. now joining us is the fixed income portfolio manager at jpmorgan asset management. great to have you with us. it seems the markets have taken this as a dovish decision from the boj at least for today. 10 year yields on the jgb
2:09 am
dropping but will we see curve steepening further down the line? diana: the market has been expecting to see a more explicit guidance on where the tenure target was or perhaps a bit more information around how much was willing to tiger -- tolerate. we have not got back in the statement, we will see what the governor comes out with at the conference. but i think ultimately, this is positive for yields, we think it should be supportive for bond markets because the boj has committed to keep rates low. nejra: what do you want to hear from kuroda when he speaks? diane: we would want to hear with that range is, what they are looking at. they will keep 10 year yields and allow some flex ability around that. markets will want to understand what that flex ability looks
2:10 am
like, is it plus or -15 basis points or -- ultimately that would have a significant impact to other markets. want to bring that onto global markets because what we have seen seems to be providing a drag on the 10 year treasury yield, down almost four basis points and europeans bond yields moving lower. as long as the bank of japan stays its course with its monetary stimulus, will that provide a drag on global bond yields? weit has and it is something have been arguing, we think the strength of the u.s. economy does not warrant rates being where they are. rates should be closer to 3.5, we should look at gdp, inflation, etc. come about because you have this build -- bid for a yield that comes from the policy rates it is hard for us to get there. in a rapid manner. while the boj is keeping rates anchored, it will be a steady
2:11 am
-- higherrhaps with as the year goes through. thea: you have a call on treasury yields of 3.5% to 4% over the next 12 months. how will he get there with these global dynamics? later second half in midyear, we have not seen the full impact of the tax cuts in the u.s. economy and we have seen this morning the markets also digesting the news on the treasury issue on the second half of the are which is significant, the second highest since 2008. you have less support coming through from the european central bank. that should allow the u.s. to reprice higher. nejra: does that mean we will see curve steepening or an end to the flat rate?
2:12 am
diana: we will see a little bit of steepening but it depends on where the issuance will be, which point of the curve the u.s. treasury targets. it is concentrated on the front end, it might be slightly more of a range bound rather than outright steepening. fora: what does this mean corporate's, where do you see the opportunity and the corporate space fixed income question mark diana: in the corporate space, we think the reasons for [indiscernible] has provided opportunities in that area. we think u.s. high yields particularly when you look at things such as leverage and the earnings season we are going through also provides interesting opportunities within emerging markets. we are starting to see how much value has been created in some of our space. particularly when you look at the latin american markets where -- corporate's in argentina
2:13 am
underlying earnings look robust. opportunities have to be selective. nejra: are you saying the u.s. equity market tell you one thing where high yield is telling you another, equity markets are saying late cycle and high yields say made or -- midcycle? a: there are areas in some sectors of the european market where the balance sheet is not as robust as it could be. we have -- within the u.s. sector the high-yield area has been delivering. that trend of delivering is youct whereas in the u.s. will see a bit more of the late cycle. nejra: thank you so much to oa, great to have you with us.
2:14 am
let's turn back to earnings and estimates. revenue slightly growing. joining us for an exclusive interview is the ceo of austria's largest bank here to discuss second-quarter earnings. good morning to you and great to have you with us on the program. i want to pick up on your comment on the annual revenue erste has promised to raise revenue and you talked about a slight increase, when might we see an increase that is more than slight? see an increase that is more than slight given our are up by 24%its and quarter on quarter, we are up 30%. i guess you could call that relatively good. to ask you about
2:15 am
the ecb, when should the ecb raise rates to have a positive impact on your business? andreas: our main interest income is raising for the moment, based on volume, although rates have not moved at all. i think we all would expect that we could see a rise in the euro rates towards the end of next year, that has been repeatedly said so by the ecb. our wish would be that this increase could come a bit sooner. inflation rate in germany has moved up to 2%. maybe we are in for a positive surprise. nejra: a positive surprise would be good for everyone. but in terms of when the rate
2:16 am
rise comes from the ecb, how long will it take for that to impact your revenue? adreas: it will be probably slight increase on the short end. it will -- it depends on what that will do to the yield curve. for a bank like ours that is ary deposit rich, we have loan to deposit ratio around 92. even a slight rate increase does good to us, we have seen that in the czech republic where we have several rate rises during the last 12 months that have a very positive effect on rni. if that happens in the euro, we will be happy. are positiveises for you in the czech republic, but what about the measures against mortgage growth in the czech republic, how much of a headache are those for you? andreas: they are not really a
2:17 am
headache for us area to the contrary. conservativevely vis-a-vis many of our competitors on our ltv and debt to income ratios. happening now does not hurt us at all. it is good for us. nejra: if the regulatory concern about overheating or even a bubble forming justified? andreas: i think they are justified. if you get into territory of double-digit loan growth, i have full understanding if regulators introduce measures to bring growth rates down a bit. rates ofe have growth a percent or 9%, that is still
2:18 am
healthy. it should not go much beyond that. i have no problem with that. been: your share price has outperforming the banks index and quite a few of your peers in europe. why do you think that is customer -- that is? andreas: basically the fact that we have a very compact strategy. we run very large banks in central and eastern europe. onconcentrate heavily commercial banking and retail banking. basically our loan portfolio is more than covered by client deposits. we have a rather conservative business model and in times like these, i think conservative is this models are doing better than others -- business models are doing better than others. we can be lucky on having maybe the best digital banking
2:19 am
platform in this region. i am sure you know it is called george and it is fantastic. nejra: i have heard about george. erste is known for its trade app. nejra: the biggest downside risk of -- that we have had under control, are we ourselves. for making room mistakes. you have to do a good job in order to maintain that kind of performance. being happy about your digital platform is one thing, but we have to invest constantly in it, competition is growing.
2:20 am
life is not going to get easier for us. one risk is simply the management risk that we have and the other risk is political volatility that has been increasing quite dramatically. that we cannot influence but we can -- we have to cope with that political risk. it is a time where i believe good managements can do a good job and not so good managements do not such a good job. nejra: thank you so much, erste groupchl from bank. let's get the bloomberg business flash. isiette: credit suisse giving investors reason to stay with the bank through the end of its three-year restructuring. second-quarter net revenue of 5.6 billion francs beat analyst estimates with the swiss universal bank doing better than expected on revenue and adjusted pretax profit. international wealth management
2:21 am
had profit of 461 million francs which was also about citations. >> the call for performance is driven by [indiscernible] which is much more stable and predictable. we can then absorb [indiscernible] bill winters is getting closer to meeting his targets for the bank. the london-based lender need pretaxes, set to trade, three percent. return on equity climbed 6.7% and the bank said it was confident of reaching it's a percent target. at --harters cfo joins us standard charter cfo joins us later. that is your bloomberg business flash. nejra: thank you. one of the uk's larger term builders returned -- reported first-half numbers, citing poor weather affecting revenue in the
2:22 am
first quarter but it will remain on track to deliver on 2018 expectations. joining us now is the ceo, peter redfern. good morning to you. how are you expecting to deliver on this 2018 expectations? p: 2017 was a record year and every expect -- respect. we expect 2018 to be higher on ims and margins. but in small amounts. the first half of the year is flat but we knew that and so no great surprise. if you look at where our book and, we can see the margins the weather issues we saw in march, we are catching up on and so we feel comfortable looking at 2018 as a whole. nejra: one thing making people in london are -- uncomfortable
2:23 am
is house prices have been under pressure. is that still underlying demand when you build homes, how strong is that? was a record sales race in every way. the first half we were about 3% behind. overall still a very strong set of market conditions for new build homes but we cannot ignore consumer confidence as we look at the next 18 months. it is not without any risk but if you look at all of that statistics and performance in the field, it is very good. nejra: how much of an impact could we get if we have policy tightening? we are expecting a rate rise this week. pete: we have talked about this before, we did before the first raise right -- rise. smallter-point rise, a rise which does not concern us. the impact on average markets, 25 to 30 point -- 30 pounds a
2:24 am
month. mortgages are affordable. , there is a we do general confidence in the consumer. about what is going on politically in the u.k. in a wider sense. nejra: do you expect the weakness in london to spread to the rest of the u.k.? p: i do not think i do. the weakness has been centered around the upper end of the market with a different set of buyers. it helped other buyers. a d-linke see quite market between prime central monday -- london market and the rest of the u.k. for the majority of our purchases it is a combination of confidence and mortgage cost availability, the latter remains good and the former is less solid than it was a year ago. nejra: how much of an impact could brexit have to the
2:25 am
downside on house prices? on businessesct as a whole are muted. not-- those factors do affect us directly. interest standpoint it ratesely to keep interest lowest for longer and that is the impact on our customers. it is hard to call. nejra: i have heard that you wanted to back off a little bit from central london. what is the progress? pete: that do not -- does not quite fairly reflected. we bought in central london after the market changed because we saw opportunities, we see that as a long-term place you want to be. there will be a slightly shorter business in the short-term. we can afford to take a longer stance and remain there, we have
2:26 am
a good team, we have good assets there are difficult short-term conditions that creates opportunities along with risks. nejra: you along with your competitors are one of the worst performing stocks on the s&p 500. what defines you differently that means investors will pick you? getting under the skin of every part of our business and modernizing, changing it in a creative way. we are doing an awful lot with our customers that will help sales rates and pricing. we are doing a lot around efficiency. we have had a strong performance for a number of years. we are challenging ourselves internally. , thank your redfern for joining us on set. that is it for daybreak europe. the european open is up next. they will be speaking shortly with bob dudley after the energy
