there has been these distortions. have this standoff between the united states and turkey -- we could have a very ifrp u-turn in the markets awayan decides to give politically in this crisis. solve the real problems underneath and that will take a bit more work. it is difficult to predict where we are. we could be at the beginning of a long erosion in turkey. journal" called for ousting turkey from nato. or this could be something where erdogan and trump kiss and makeup. anna: it could be. debt.ld turkish

what would encourage you to take more? the realmost measures, debt problem the country has is in the corporate sector. the companies have been the ones borrowing and building. butgovernment has borrowed, it does not look like the country itself has too much debt, the sovereign. why there is a good chance you are going to have some companies default, it is likely the country well. there will be a pretty sharp bounce in prices when this crisis subsides. it has been a sharp selloff. there are some pretty good values. add today,king to

politically, he is getting a bit of support for this. turkssuggest that 80% of blame the united states for the problems. tois going to be difficult the aligned politically but these countries. turkey has a lot of tension with them as well. other countries have found when they try to realign, it is not easy to do business with some of those countries. goes, the this crisis last the turkish population will support erdogan. he owns this at this point. international commentators are saying most of this is self-inflicted. the turks at this moment are when thee of him,

economic damage really bites, it will come back to haunt him. manus: would you say that erdogan has a capacity -- you are on the phone, but i am going viewers this scorecard in terms of current account deficit and governance. the next ones in position for a columbia, argentina, south africa, and mexico. i understand you hold some argentinian debt. where is the biggest opportunity for sorting on that scorecard? i don't think you would want to short argentina now. argentina was doing it before it was really be

worst-performing bond market in the emerging markets. write down argentina? jim the darling of the argentinaarkets -- became the darling of emerging markets. most asset managers probably overweighed argentina. we are much closer to the bottom then we were a few weeks ago. the one thing that would differentiate all the countries ,ou could name from turkey these countries are willing to embrace more of an economic reac tion to these crises.

you mention argentina hiking rates as much as they have done. columbia is going to be a standard market reaction. they have pretty strong finance people. countriesse other will manage the shock better than erdogan has. hans, thank you for your time. lira crisis intensifies, turkey postulation jet with russia has come to the fore -- urkey's relationship with russia has come to the fore. erdogan is on a tuesday visit. there might be conversations between turkey and qatar.

in terms of the financial relationship? where is the lean going to be? erdogan spoked on friday at the peak of the lira crisis. erdogan did not ask for economic assistance at that point. projects russia is involved in already. russia is building a power plant for turkey, a $23 billion project. russia is building a pipeline. there is a lot of russian money going into turkey are ready. -- already. these sanctions imposed by russia after 2015 have for the most part been lifted. already, giving a lot

but explicit financial support during this crisis i don't think is on the table. russia is having problems with the ruble at the moment. russiaur bloomberg government edgar, thank you. let's leave geopolitics there for the moment, and talk about what is going on in the united states. james bevan is onset in london. we are seeing a lot of dollar strength. has been one of the big features of these trade tensions. the global asset convergence trade, which suggests other currencies will catch up with the dollar, that is no longer seen as happening. run doesfurther to this strong dollar trend have? the dollar will continue

strong for two reasons. as the global economy slows, the u.s. typically is a beneficiary. i think u.s. assets will remain significantly supported in terms of global government debt. the ceo offers a much more attractive real guilt. u.s. dollar bond market has been substantially supported i european and japanese investors who look at our domestic bond market and say, that yield is so low for where we are in the economic cycles. into the put money u.s. bond market. the dollar has been strong relative to the expectations prior to the tax cuts. analysts have been rushing to upgrade numbers and

companies have been coming to the table with better than expected data. market willity continue higher from here, rather than lower. we have the out performers of the s&p relative to the rest of the world. has been one of the most dominant themes we have touched on. you take that out of the equation, it might look different. how much of a believer are you in the united states without the bank component? imdb supportive of what is going on in the u.s. economy. we have tax cuts and bank regulations. the s&p 600 is outperforming the s&p 500. superior returns have been

delivered to big-cap partners. that speaks confidence in the outlook for the u.s. economy. james, on the money as ever. be continuing his thoughts on markets on bloomberg radio, as of 7:30 a.m. u.k. time. let's get back to the turkish story. said imposings capital controls on turkey is a real possibility. he spoke about his concerns earlier. i have much deeper concerns due to this standoff. i did not realize trump would be so tough in getting his return. we now see a real bargaining taking place between the two leaders. both of them are probably not willing to compromise.

mark, has erdogan. himself into a corner by saying he will not take end international bailout or raise interest rates -- an international bailout or raise interest rates? him: the only opening for would be to give up and return the pastor to the united states. that would be the best alternative. you may see that happening. there may be a face-saving effort on both sides. it remains to be seen. i cannot be too optimistic. >> a question about turkish banks and u.s. bonds trading on $.50 of the dollar there. if you had eight deposit in a

turkish bank, would you be taking the money out? mark: i have a deposit in the turkish bank, but i am keeping some in. turkey is going to be an interesting market to be in longer-term. i you have the turkish lira, am in pretty good shape. i am concerned about any currency controls. i don't want to get that money in the near future. are capital controls inevitable at this point given that there is pushback on the possibility of an imf bailout? it doesn't look like any friends are willing to step in. the central bank has raised rates by 1000 basis points but it may not have much of an effect. mark: they have already taken

steps to limit trade in u.s. dollars to prevent people from hedging. the next step could be complete currency control, not allowing dollars to get out of the country. this is something that is a real possibility. erdogan -- this is a must erdo erdogan and trump can come to some agreement. manus: -- anna: mark mobius. let's have a look at what is happening in global markets. a quick look at the lira. this is not in the color we are used to seeing. the be brett is not doing as badly this morning.

today. let's talk about what is going on in turkey. the standoff between the countries will continue, turkey's financial meltdown spreads to emerging markets and more stable today. joining us now from istanbul, good morning. the way have said the turkish ambassador in turkey was meeting with u.s. officials, what can we expect from the security meeting that is set to take place? both sides are digging their heels deeper into the ground. her have been a few days of combative rhetoric from both sides and the u.s. administration slapped it tariffs on turkey because of this ongoing dispute over the american pastor who is being held in turkey, andrew bronson.

the turkish government have always said they are not going to have certain conditions imposed on them. it appears they have not come closer in terms of positions and that leaves the door open for maybe another response from the u.s. to reassert their point they're not willing to back down on this issue. we broke those headlines, businesses in turkey are trying intalk to the president terms of policy. the lira has one small reprieve and we are seeing a little bit of a bounce. this is anybody's guess how long that will last that what is your sense they are? usuf: stabilization is surprising given the amount of feedback we have from investors who said the only way you could stop is with interest rate hikes. it has been almost a full

trading day. he also heard from the bundesbank, one of the executive board members saying it needed action. are we going to see anything later in the day, that is the question even if the lira stabilizes. it must way 5% in the last three or four trading sessions. this good shape the narrative. president erdogan is scheduled youpeak again later on and have the finance minister who is expected to give a press conference in ankara. that could add a lot more color, maybe more clarity about how far the turkish government is willing to go maybe what the turkish government is willing to recalibrate. a lot to consider. anna: thank you. trying us now further -- joining us now is the senior economic advisor at hsbc.

we will come to your most recent notes about the u.s. and what it hopes to do. let's get your thoughts on what is going on in global markets. the correlation between the lira and other emerging market currencies. how long do we see the instant move between turkey, do they divert from here? affectedey are being by a set price issue. rather with the federal reserve is doing, raising interest rates probably faster than people had expected six months or a year ago. that has led to a strong dollar and many emerging markets especially with large accounts, a lot of those deficits in foreign currency. when the dollar goes up the currency goes down. which -- a country

is looking more vulnerable. you can see it with other countries other than turkey. there is a rich history of this. situation by which the fed raises rates from a low end [indiscernible] we have created a wonderful montage for you, the scorecard, current account deficits, external debt. you made the point that the difference here is with the other nations, they would most do at theprepared to conventional thing you need to do to save yourself. -- would you agree that anybody else finds themselves, it is a better place rather than the individual who is driving the bus who is

erdogan. a populist, a as nationalist who wants to put turkey first and does not want to be in a situation where he is being dictated to by international markets are does he want the imf coming into real turkey out. the situation is tricky. painful.ngs are and when you look at what has countrieso other which have been in this situation, the deficit [indiscernible] you get there by imposing a recession and that is what everyone wants to avoid. you end up with a standoff whereby the risk is the currency gets weaker and inflationary pressures rise rather than fall. guy: how much of a headwind is the stronger dollar? the stronger dollar makes

the funding issues more difficult. just in the emerging markets? does the big global story continue? guest: you can look at the u.k.. theyraised interest rates, earlier in the month, you might say, you look at the minutes of the meeting, there was not a clear view as to why the rates were going up and the answer is the bank of england is worried about weakness and in the face interest rates, what can the bank do? it has to respond. if you have sterling continuously falling against the dollar, the bank comes under pressure. it is with the u.s. doing -- is doing, also through developed markets. let's finish with that

thought from the bank of england. we have created a chart that shows you could invert the yield curve in that scenario where sterling takes a bath on a hard brexit. the bank of england needs to step in. what kind of a bath does it take to get the bank of england to reverse and raise rates more aggressively, what is the trigger point for real brexit sterling catastrophe? guest: i am not sure i can go there. you sure imagination. -- use your imagination. if you have a hard brexit there is total chaos so they could fall further. then you have an obvious problem. with a much weaker sterling inflationary pressure is building faster. does it feel it has to respond? if you have a hard brexit with what the u.k. has you will be faced with a situation where you

have to crimp domestic demand and by doing that you and up with weaker [indiscernible] manus: it took that one on-the-fly. with us. if you are a customer you can watch the show using tv as well as the video stream and follow our charts and functions and you can message us on the functions. anna: we continue our discussion , with a warning for donald trump, the president's ambition to reduce the u.s. deficit poses risk. after yesterday emerging markets selloff, south africa's trade minister joins us here at 10:30 a.m. u.k. time. this is bloomberg. ♪

anna: 7:20 a.m. in london, this is bloomberg daybreak europe. where 39 minutes from the start of the european cash equity trading day. let's check out what is trending. days --h it packet catch up packet days could be numbered. find greener alternatives. manus: let's talk about trump. he is taking credit for the rise in military spending by nato states that in the eastern reaches it could be because of his russian counterpart vladimir putin instead. anna: on the most read stories on the terminal, turkey's

meltdown has rippled across emerging markets. -- you can find out more on the bloomberg terminal. let's look at how much the lira has moved. a bounce in our hands, we are over 3%. we have to have this bounce, you business of those consortium saying get ready to put your house in order. crisis is owned by urdu on so you are seeing a drop in the dollar, a rally in the lira, have a look at the five-day, it begins here. what a tortured soul this currency was. hazard one practice -- has urdu one backed does up into a corner? over the past five days you can still see the lira has lost one third of its value and five

trading days. that is what you call a currency in crisis. be careful what you wish for. have been told. stephen king's warning to donald trump, his ambition to reduce the currency poses considerable risk, not least to the u.s. itself. still with us is our guest. what are the biggest risks in a while should it be -- he be careful what he wishes for? big playhe has made a to reduce the deficit, he has blamed the chinese and others of cheating. what is missing here is why the u.s. has a current account deficit. it boils down to the savings behavior of countries elsewhere liquid keen on owning assets because the u.s. dollar

is the world's reserve currency. as the savings close it boosts asset prices and lowers the cost of capital and encourages americans to spend more than they otherwise would spend to ensure that they end up importing more and you have a continuous deficit. so that raises the problem, if you have a situation whereby the rest of the world finds american assets toxic for whatever reason they sell the assets, that means lower asset prices, higher cost of capital, weaker dollar. that crimps u.s. domestic demand. anna: one of the point you make in your report which is the u.s. deficit is not a reflection of poor american competitiveness. placecoming off a lower than other countries. this is the euro area and china.

u.s. competitiveness has improved. the rest of the world wants to put their money into dollars and invest. how is the u.s. making itself less attractive? this is a long-term story but one issue is how the rest of the world reacts to american protectionism. encourageion may trade. is more important and you can find that the currency becomes less important. were it happen you would end up in a situation whereby [indiscernible] keen to buy dollars. and he for you know it suddenly the dollar is not quite the current reserve currency choice

and that would be damaging for the u.s. manus: how do you think the fed looks at everything at the moment in terms of productivity that you just mentioned. we have seen a downgrade to growth come through from the cbo. stephen: the growth numbers are looking good. it is outperforming what we are seeing in europe and other parts of the developed world. the fed is on track to continue raising interest rates. the race is a difficulty from the current account deficit which is one of the reasons why the u.s. is raising rates. fiscal stimulus means higher demand and higher demand means a larger rather than smaller current account deficit. it reduces american competitiveness and raises the deficit. you have a inconsistency whereby you want a reduction in the current account deficit and budget expense deficit. anna: thank you for joining us. the turkish at
