6:07 pm
with sanctions or tariffs. we did see a recovery in turkish assets, stocks, bonds and the lira posting a bit of a rebound, but liquidity is slim, so not necessarily the best reflection of the realities of the market. the coming hours will be a test for the country as they look for sustainability but also credibility among international investors. the latest out of turkey. let's take a deeper dive now into the u.s. market close. that four day fall came to a stop as economic data overshadowed concerns about turkey's lira crisis, at least for now. it also helps some strategists say turkey's turmoil isn't like the asian financial crisis, you might are member, of the 1990's. su keenan has more. su: bernstein with a note to that effect, and other strategists saying it appears the turkey fears have abided,

6:11 pm
further to fall. that has to do in part with some global volatility, and a a lot of uncertainty about a bitcoin ipo. ramy: we also got a sneak page sorosome major funds dea, chief among them. su: soros, berkshire hathaway's buffett. berkshire is doubling up on the favored area, banks and a irlines, not to mention apple. they increase stakes in goldman, delta, southwest, and reduced some positions, they say not because they fell out of favor, but to make sure they do not exceed 10% ownership of american, wells fargo, ual and charter communications. soros took new stakes in spotify and pandora, also facebook, buying when everyone was selling, and devon energy.

6:15 pm
a little more risk-on, the u.s. market coming back from the longest line since march as investors feel a little more sanguine about the contagion risk out of turkey. till down 0.1% from the sydney futures. i'm haidi stroud-watts in sydney. ramy: i'm ramy inocencio in new york. you are watching "daybreak australia." on wall street stocks have halted the longest slide since march. investors are brushing off fears about turkey, at least for now, and the u.s. dollar has hit a 14-month high. treasuries are falling, but how long can this last? -- thanks for joining us. take us from the 30,000 foot level here. in your note, you say the u.s. ptor, when this disru in the past it has been a
6:16 pm
peacemaker, and it doesn't appear set to change anytime soon. todd: thank you for having me, ramy. the way i look at it right now, the world is starting to weigh in on this, but there has been a paradigm shift where we have gone from being the world peace maker to this world disruptor, and it seems trump should have two more red hats made, one for each, because we put them on, take them off whenever we want. this is creating some uncertainty and concern.turkey is feeling the brunt of it right now . argentina is getting a piece of it because of what's happening in turkey, getting caught in that for tax, so it creates a lot of uncertainty in the markets. see the dollar strength. there's going to be winners and losers.the important thing for us , investors need to arm themselves properly because this looks like this is going to be the way it is for the trump administration for at least the next two years. ramy: interesting that's strengthening america,
6:17 pm
strengthening the house of trump right now, and the u.s. it seems is the biggest safe haven play. on the bloomberg terminal, gtv library, one interesting thing from one of our main charts today, we can see that a lot of u.s. indices set record highs in august, but how do we play the u.s. as a safe haven here? todd: in the short run, the u.s. is a safe haven, ubt i would -- but i would at least look at it, this movement creates opportunities overseas as well. one of the things investors have to look at, not just riding the indices. i think the push for passive etf's, low cost, becomes dangerous for investors in these volatile markets with the disruption type of white house. you are much better served, i feel, and our research shows,
6:18 pm
with more active management built into the portfolio. somebody has to be picking between who the winners and losers are, rather than sitting aside, riding a passive index up and down. from our standpoint, active management, 45% of the u.s. equity funds outperformed their indexes in 2017. on the international front, 55% surpassed their indexes in 2017. so one of the corollaries we see for the next couple of years, with this new paradigm shift, is, we think passive is way overdone. we think active has a big role going forward.investors need to look at that , and look at making sure that they are putting people in there that are making decisions, not just riding the waves. these, wees like talk about the famous warren buffett saying, be greedy when other people are fearful. is it time to be more bold on emerging markets?
6:19 pm
todd: thank you for that question. i think that time is coming. as i look at what's going on, i thank mark cuban, by the way, for saying he is in cash. he just came out, saying he is sitting in cash. i cannot vote for a person who gives up on the u.s., the world economy. to me he has lost my vote, but as an investor he's created a great opportunity, because as people are going cash, as money is flowing into the u.s., that creates awesome opportunities for us to invest internationally and in the emerging markets. we are looking at the international markets right now with a dividend of over 3.3%, trading at fundamentals lower than the u.s., coming with an unemployment rate that was at 12% for the high, now 8% and going down, creating a potential wealth effect in international markets. on the emerging-market front, demographically that's a longer-term trade, but we would still be buying on dips, because our long-term strategic focus,
6:20 pm
specifically in india and china, is that they are going to be booming for the next decade. the middle-class movement in india will go from 12% to 79% in only 12 years. that's incredible. in china, from 32% to 72%. even if those studies come out half-right, having a strategic allocation to those areas i think will be beneficial to portfolios. rate: todd, do you assume divergence, dollar strength, trade wars, could throw a spanner in the em play? todd: i don't think it will throw the em in a tank. there's not really contagion right now. , emerging markets down 3.8%. i could sneeze, and have emerging markets drop kick 20%. that's really -- dropped 3.8%. that's really, emerging markets
6:21 pm
in dollar terms, down around 8%, a little more concerning. but let's face it. we could get a quick solution in turkey on a dime, depending what hat trump wants to put in, see everything rally, a nice boost in the major market -- emerging markets. i don't know they are down so far that we back up the truck, but i would keep a margin of safety in my portfolio. there's no reason to be sitting on cash. but use that as opportunity to buy on dips. use it for opportunity. the global economy will be strong for several years to come. haidi: appreciate your insights, spending time with us. green andglia of meg associates. charts to see featured on bloomberg tv to

ramy: welcome back. i'm ramy inocencio in new york. haidi: i'm haidi stroud-watts in sydney. you are watching "daybreak australia." demand driven by strong economic growth in asia, and the ongoing power coal powered plants across the region. the ceo of whitehaven says coal still has a place, despite the push toward renewables. >> you have no choice but to do something with coal. if anyone continues to believe we can go on the way we are going, they are living in a world that's very different from the world our customers live in. elevated prices hurt everyone, not just households, industry as well.
6:25 pm
you have to be able to provide reliable, affordable power on a 24-hour basis, and if you can't do that with renewables, with any form of backup we have available to us. gas coal, nuclear if you have it, depending on the jurisdiction you are in, has a role. >> what is the growth market? >> taiwan has been the biggest. if i'm surprised by any market, that is the most. the quality specifications they are demanding have been increasing, stepping ever closer to the japanese standard. that has surprised me. that market has overtaken korea. >> how well-equipped is your business to handle risk? that leads me to the last question. what is the biggest uncertainty, the biggest risk? we spend a lot of time talking about the trade war, deterioration in growth, a breakdown in global growth? >> look, i think uniformly we are exposed to areas which are growing, and i think that if anything, the growth i see around the world is less
6:26 pm
convincing in the northern hemisphere. we are not exposed to that area at all. but in asia, i feel quite comfortable about the growth position in each of these jurisdictions. of course a trade war provides uncertainty for all players, that -- but the lights still need to be turned on. if there is a real change, i see metal sideing the more than the thermal side of things. a lot in china driving the belt road initiatives, and i think that will continue regardless of what happens between the u.s. and china. ramy: that was whitehaven ceo paul flynn. let's do a quick check of the latest business flash headlines. copper fell to a one year low on unions in signs the chile are making headway in avoidingg a strike.

we've come off are really good earnings season in the u.s. and around the world. stocks have been priced pretty well, and people had been looking for an excuse to take some risk off the table. turkey provided that. now we are seeing things stabilize a little bit. volumes were reasonably low in the u.s. session, but still, some stabilization. the idea of complacency is reflected well in this chart. the vix, although it has come up in the last few days, is still back to those 2017 levels, and complacency at this point in this cycle is scotland yard's point about how you want to be dialing down your risk exposure. it's only going to be a couple weeks, and this will be the longest bull market in u.s. history. to stay andwant make those returns up until the last minute and run the risk of
6:35 pm
getting stampeded to, as everyone runs off the dance floor at the end of the cycle, that's a tricky thing that investors face, but we've got a reasonably decent set up for asia. we don't look like we will have any huge moves, but some signs of stability. mi: in the new york session earlier, even though we saw broad gains, looking at chinese tech and e-commerce, those stocks got hammered. what were the weights there? >> it's not a good day for some of these names. you can have a look at it here. huawei, the likes of why just weaker earnings, and it has filtered to some of the other tech names, some of the more household names, tencent and alibaba. it was already a weak session
6:36 pm
for tencent on tuesday. it has now lost more than $150 billion in market value since that january peak, and gains growth, slowing. there's plenty of worries. what these companies overnight have shown is that there is plenty in that sector to disappoint, and when and if they do disappoint, you can see very large moves, 10%, 15% on the day declines. it's increasingly important now as we run into tencent and alibaba, both due to report earnings in the coming days. haidi: global markets editor adam haigh with us in sydney, and don't forget to check out g tv live. bloomberg lives second annual players technology summit is well underway in san francisco. the event brings together athletes, entrepreneurs, and investors to share business

6:38 pm
differently about expansion and investment and business decisions? >> it's not certain where this is going. i would not say it has directly affected our investment decisions thus far. we've got to be able to adjust to any economic or regulatory environment. rami: looking at what is happening in the china market, it is still a growth engine, but the market is still slowing down. looking at the peripherals of what you guys sell, how are you looking at that as you move ahead? bracken: we are super bowl it. we certainly aren't looking at what has happened in the last quarter. our overall business in china was very strong. globally, we are gaining business. our expectation is, within china

itself, which is the biggest gaming market in the world, we are going to continue seeing strong gaming growth. rami: what are your biggest products there, and who is buying it? bracken: we are in the mouse and keyboard business for productivity, but we also sell videoconferencing technology. we talked about gaming, and in gaming, we have several different products. of course, people are using webcams. bought a microphone company to go with those webcams. we are adding all the time. mentioned microphones as the most recent transaction. what are your intentions? rami: we love long-term secular growth trends.
6:40 pm
it's true everywhere in the world. more and more of us are creating things and putting them out there, and broadcasting yourself is becoming a bigger opportunity for every individual, every creator. microphones are a part of that, making sure the video is terrific. we make webcams, and now we are into the audio stream. haidi: are you putting all of your expansion eggs in one basket with china? rami said it's been a phenomenal growth story. what other developing markets are you looking into? bracken: we have a terrific distributor business around the world. we are in virtually every market in the world except for north korea and syria. many is just one of our markets. it's a great market, but so is india. so is most of southeast asia.

so is australia and the u.s. and latin america. we have strong growth in developing markets all over the world, and we have many categories that we are in. rami: the reason you are there right now is to talk about the growth of esports. where do you see that going in terms of the masses? it has already been growing exponentially here. bracken: i think we are at the very beginning. i grew up in the u.s., and when i was growing up, u.s. sports of football and basketball were relatively young. looking back at those times in the late 1960's and 1970's when sports were tiny, that is exactly where we were. we are at the start of a strong growth trend that will one day leave esports as the biggest collection of sports in the world. rami: socialization and gaming is a big theme of 2018. do you see this as something
6:42 pm
that is likely to stay around? we talk a lot about the struggle that gaming has had with pushing diversity and inclusion. do you think a more social aspect is going to help that? incken: first of all, gaming general and esports has become a socialsport. when you get online and play video games, you're often not playing with people from your city or state. you are playing with people all over the world simultaneously. it is a super social thing. the diversity and inclusion thing, the number of women playing games is on the rise. ortnite" areke "f attracting more and more women into the sport, and i think you will see the sport transition to a much more inclusive environment. we are big believers in that. haidi: i appreciate you spending time with us, barak enderle --= darrell.acken

[no audio] matt: can you hear me?
6:47 pm
it sounds like we have just lost audio. matt, can you still hear me? matt: i can hear you, but i am gathering you cannot hear me. rami: now we can. hopping to the bloomberg terminal, we can see that the trade flow between the u.s. and turkey is $21 billion. not so much pain when it comes to the boycott. matt: not too much pain for the united states economy, but president trump's move to double tariffs he imposed on turkish steel and turkish aluminum took a hit on the turkish side and caused a further drop in the turkish lira. that is mostly because of weakness in the turkish lira that was pre-existing, but it shows how weak the turkish economy has become. it shows that president trump is willing to do something quite
6:48 pm
damaging to an important nato ally of the united states. rami: have you seen any races to the bottom in regards to this? how might turkey be able to cause any pain, if at all? matt: turkey would have difficulty doing that. i can tell you like many of the blunders that donald trump has made for u.s. trade policy, he's playing straight into the hands of vladimir putin, and putin would like to make better relations for that critical nato ally. that would hurt in other ways for the united states. you mentioned that a take away from this is the united states willful destruction or twisting the knife into turkey's already horrible economic fundamentals to create a real problem. what does that say in terms of
6:49 pm
implications of other nato relationships? we know donald trump is willing to rip up the playbook on traditional alliances. matt: he very much is, and it is hard to know what his motivations are, but it's a very dangerous sign for the united nato partners and countries dependent on the nato alliance for their security or elements of their security. haidi: one of our guests of that we spoke to yesterday said its becoming an interesting point that turkey does not want to agree to the conditions of an imf bailout. is there a chance that turkey may look to the likes of china for a bailout? matt: yes. thatme you have a country is in a vulnerable position like turkey is in, they start looking for desperate measures. it's like an organized crime syndicate that is trying to lend usurous somebody at
6:50 pm
rates. when they have no other options, they go to the mob and end up borrowing money, and they get their legs broken. this is one of the ways that gets allies. this is one of the ways russia gets allies, and trump is refusing to recognize the realities of the geopolitical security picture. a welcomes been re-spite where we haven't been talking about the trade tensions and the burgeoning trade war. what are you expecting? do you see any kind of circuit breaker between washington and beijing? matt: i don't see any exit ramps, and i have been saying that. donald trump and the united states, we are within our rights when we called out china for stealing u.s. intellectual property rights for 15 years, but trump is completely wrong by retaliating outside the wto's
6:51 pm
retaliation process. ace he did that, he triggered downward spiral. there's almost no exit except trump unilaterally backing off, which his personality is not likely to do. haidi: do you think there is agreement within the administration from what you know of what they want the u.s. trade policy to actually be? there are a lot of question marks over what trump actually wants. are: among trump's advisers four people on trade. peter navarro, the economist, and wilbur ross, the secretary of commerce, and larry kudlow, the director of the national economic council. the fourth one very much agreements,trade rob light heiser, the united states trade representative. it's hard to know what he's missing. or is he self-dealing?
6:52 pm
steel sectorsnd are the only sectors benefiting here. it's hard to understand why light heiser is in providing effective advice. the rest of his team, i wouldn't say they are in disagreement. i would say that the three of them don't know enough to even have a meaningful opinion, so there's nothing to disagree among themselves on. haidi: thank you so much for that, matt gold, former deputy assistant to the u.s. trade rep. ,ome earnings out of australia continuing to come through. fairfax media, reporting a loss million, final dividends per share of 0.01 aussies per share. this creates greater pressure for that proposed takeover, that $4.2 billion takeover that was announced late last month. that's expected by most analysts to go through without much regulatory scrutiny.
