3:33 pm
elon musk smoked marijuana on a comedian podcast. a labor market surprise. wages climbed by the most since the end of the recession as hiring also jumped. president trump amped up his trade war rhetoric threatening tariffs on 267 billion dollars worth of chinese goods. he spoke with reporters earlier today. >> we have added another 200 million. $267d that is another billion ready to go on short notice if i want. the occasion. joining us from chicago the big question right now for a lot of people is have markets already priced in another $200 billion in tariffs, let alone
3:34 pm
another 267 billion? >> they have not. first of all we have to think of how these work. usually you you have forewarning. companies stock up ahead of time. some of the strength in the economy, they are telling us they are seen people stock up ahead of tariffs to blunt the blow of tariffs they come in. that shows up as a building of inventories. when you have a rapid change you have the backlog of people looking for exclusions, waivers. we have gotten very few on the steel aluminum tariffs. there are also complaints there has been favoritism. happen.what starts to some companies who know the administration get a waiver and others don't. tariffscts of accumulate over time. so it is hard for financial
3:35 pm
markets to price it in, the uncertainty. many going forward with plans for investments for 2018 don't know until what the landscape is going to look like or 2019 said but theirolding back investment plans are? >> we have seen some specific companies be affected. i wanted to mention a headline from apple which might end up being another example. the tariffs list covers a wide range of apple products. these headlines just coming out, saying the tariffs affect their and cables. pencil, the shares are taking a leg down on this. when does it go from being a specific company, specific product story to a broader economic story? >> it takes months.
3:36 pm
if this were to happen, 200 billion alone would start showing up by christmas, basically. it will be a much more expensive holiday season. we just had a pick up in wages offset by an increase in prices and it would hit the u.s. consumer quickly. billionthe products, 50 in effect, the most recent ones in late august very recent. they are in the supply chain. you hope some of those are absorbed. they hit profit margins but many don't realize how many things are very specific only to china and how limited suppliers are in terms of getting those inputs. it takes a while. it creeps in and accumulates over time. by the end of the fourth order you will see some crying about margins and if these extra ones were to go in rapidly without time for people to adjust you would see it happen more
3:37 pm
quickly. joe: i want ask about jobs. accelerating to 2.9%, is this it? is this what we have been waiting for? month,ill get one october was distorted by hurricanes last year. we will get a shoot up in october before they make the december decision. that is baked into the cake. the trend is we are getting more wage growth. we want that. trendis also an important in terms of benefits. the full-time jobs as opposed to temporary job hires, they are jobs with benefits. benefits picking up. compensation packages are getting better. and are not getting better faster than inflation. although this is great news and a trend we want to see get some
3:38 pm
traction we are still a shadow of our former self. lisa: to your two-year treasury yields in the post crisis, people pricing in more rate hikes on the heels of this labor report. what is your expectation and how high will that though? >> i do think we are going to see two more rate hikes, in september and december. next year it could be two or three depending on how much tariffs get in. tariffs are tricky because they are both stagflationary. they slow the economy. that is going to be tricky to negotiate that kind of environment and the latter part of next year because that is when the biggest effects of tariffs, at the magnitude we are talking a going to kick in. do a lot ofthem to distortions we don't want in the economy. julie: buying the worst-case scenario what is the biggest
3:39 pm
risk? >> the biggest risk is -- don't. of oldies age. they die of imbalances. the m&a activity we see is surging. the pricing in the m&a market. we are seeing a lot of loans for nonfinancial operations, not being done outside of the banking system. those are the things i watch. i always ask when the economy is doing well, i have written high before and know how hard it can fall. it is the time when you want to hedge. the fed overshooting on rates is another. remember my they are reacting to data and it is always back word looking. it is not forward-looking. they are reactive. they could be reacting to an economy that is petering out but not showing it yet. julie: so we will be looking at data very carefully
3:40 pm
to see if any evidence of that is materializing. thank you diane, joining us from chicago. the apple headlines, saying the tariffs cover a wide range of apple products. pointedur producers out, the apple pencil is their stylus product. the watch, the air pad, some cables. we saw apple coming down. it had been higher but now it is lower on the session after these headlines came out. we will update you on them. we will have another area of trouble for the market potentially, a stabbing in brazil shifting the presidential race. we are looking at emerging markets more broadly as well, next.

joan: after a hammering last week latin american currencies are making gains. argentina looks more likely to get credit from the imf and the central bank governors are predicting calm. an assassination attempt is perceived to be boosting his chances to win and investors are liking that. let's bring in charlie robinson, at renaissance capital and he follows markets and countries around the world. thank you for joining us. interesting times in the em space. latin americanh what we see in argentina and brazil. investors being compensated for the risk they are getting?
3:44 pm
we reckon the argentine peso finally got cheap on the 22nd of august. it was only at that point it went through fair value. it has been too strong all year. that is why the current account .as been getting worse it is why the government has had to keep coming back getting bigger and bigger promises of fiscal cats because demand was still strong. now with interest rates here , we the currency this cheap are going to see a turnaround in the next months. possibly as quickly as august data. do you would hear to the narrative that was driving the emerging market weakness from the federal reserve, that they are raising interest rates and they are going to do so faster on the heels of this jobs are or more this is an idiosyncratic issue stemming from specific
3:45 pm
problems like the one you mentioned. >> i have been to dovish on this. i was assuming an april, may it would be staying at a turkey argentina issue. the stronger dollar, the threat of fed hikes and the trade were with china, which i am hoping and assuming trump will declare victory on before the midterms. i think those three things have been putting emerging markets under pressure. the more sensitive they are too bad news. that story has been going on for months. suddenly it blew up. combined with the week growth as well. em is sensitive. the whole asset classes under pressure now. you're not only person
3:46 pm
who is said maybe sit tight when it comes to emerging markets. wrote this columnist is the reason people get into emerging markets. not because they are stable. it is because you see take upside and downside and if investors would be patient another upside cycle will be coming again. is it just a matter of buckling up for these painful times? things. if you have gone back to any point and looked at asset classes. equities, em fx has been one of the few neutral at fair value, at the long-term average rate asset classes out there. expensive have been based on their long-term history. what you are getting is spectacular value. it could be a value trap. i accept that. turkey since 1971, we have never
3:47 pm
seen the currency cheaper than in january 1994. this is extraordinary. this is the worst time in their economic history. i don't and that quite make sense. 100ed to cover turkey with cent inflation. -- 100% inflation. there is something happening here which is throwing out good value for investors now. joe: when you say it is the cheapest you have seen it, what is your preferred approach to currency? when you say argentina hit fair value on its currency, what is your framework? >> we use the real effective framework model. 1995 becauseck to it takes into account the full
3:48 pm
commodity cycle. it is no good looking just at the last 10 years. currencies are quite strong for the last 10 years because commodities were strong. we go back the full twenty-year cycle where you get the downs and ups. we then take the exchange rate rate todayhe spot and give ourselves an average rate over the last 25 years. 1971.key's case, what that is showing is it really is throwing up a dollar value. there are still overvalued in asia but latin america, turkey, south africa are looking decent. joe: the way to play this is to go at the heart of the pain. south africa, turkey, argentina or some of the article -- ugliest in the world. rather than diversified or go for stronger ones, go with the
3:49 pm
beaten-down bloody ones. >> go with them when you have catalysts to change. i could have said this about south africa or turkey two months ago. it was cheap. theneed to see in turkey is rate hike next week. you want to see the pastor released just in time for trumps midterms. those factors plus the big catalyst, victory in china, over china, that could turn sentiment. that is what we are looking for. lisa: great to get some time with you. charlie robertson. shares of mattel rising as the toymaker makes its biggest push ever to turn more of its brand into hollywood home. discussing, my

3:51 pm
universe. joe: we were talking about this yesterday. the producer of dallas buyers club making a barbie movie. >> she is bringing management. will talk about the failed efforts of the past but this is a new industry. it is not easy to just walk in and be good. >> when you look at what hasbro has done, i have a chart on my screen. you can look at the divergence between these companies. it is largely because of what hasbro has done. these are to our advertisements that are going to sway your kids to buy them whatever is on the screen. the fact they have not been able to leverage that, a lot of their brains are kind of stodgy. it can can revise that have a big effect on revenue. up next, tesla ceo elon

their payables have increased significantly over the past couple of quarters. money they own. they are up as well. if you look at the cash generation, we think they are not. we think that is a real risk. debt investors saying there is more risk. we don't think equity investors are as invested on the sheet. about himere talking smoking pot but that is not really the point. the point is he decided to do it in the first place. i don't know where his calms person is. his communications person, it's his last day today. how big of an issue is that for tesla? >> it brings about the book bad blood about elizabeth holmes.
3:56 pm
therd that doesn't know health care, it tesla automotive's, you have the ceo who is basically unfettered , there is the company parallel between these two companies. executives leaving is not a good thing after less than a month. the chief accounting officer leading $10 million of equity grants on the table. joe: -- tesla has a real product that works. that is one difference. >> that is a good point. have you driven a model three? no. the issue is they have a card that works. if you can't make that car profitably you don't really have a business that works. that is where people get confused.

4:04 pm
cameron, whod joins us in new york. anthony, as we mentioned, we saw this decline based on the tariff headlines. not a huge decline. we've been trying to pull us apart all day, why there is not more concern the markets about the tariffs. the firstu look at $50 billion with chinese tariffs, there has not been a lot of economic reaction. most of the tariffs have been intermediary goods. it has not had an effect on consumer goods. the next round of 200 billion is going to hit consumer products. the markets are waiting to see if we actually see the tariffs in place. puts tariffs that on every export coming into the
4:05 pm
u.s. that will be an issue. joe: cameron, you found 267 billion dollars hits every import. it feels as if they create an immediate response. over long-term, you could not see them. they are hard to see on a chart. there is a threat they are and every important. it is not like we had a big selloff. >> i was surprised by that. the confluence of the 267 out of the blue and wage number and the higher yield, i would have thought after the weak week we had, that could have sent us spiraling lower. i am not sure what is going on. [laughter] i had an argument with one guy who said the comment trump made that the 200 is ready and it
4:06 pm
could happen soon, you could twist and say that is not baked in the cake. earlier in the week, we were thinking the comment period ended yesterday and we could have had the announcement starting today. some people were thinking that is up in the air. >> anthony, what clients are asking? what do you tell them to do? reduce risk? go along? tariffs arehe something you have to pay attention to. when you look at the fundamentals of the u.s., labor conditions are strong, profits are up, confidence is high. this is a good time to be in the market. there is uncertainty, but conditions are strong. i would say talking with clients, in 2009, you had cheap
4:07 pm
today, low valuation, and you have stock prices at all-time highs, confidence, and valuations are stretched. thisting large gains at point is not what you should be banking on right now. i think this bull market has some legs. next 12t 5%-7% over the months, those are solid gains with where we are right now. joe: cameron, going back to the wage number, the february wage number kicked off some intensive volatility. it is hard to connect the story with the market reaction. it seemed to be a factor. time, you think this 2.9%, did not seem to do much on the equity side? is, looking at
4:08 pm
the immediate rate of change, in january the s&p went up 6.5%. i was on here in january talking about the hang seng going up every day for 18 straight days. the backdrop is different. it took two months to go up 6.5% in july and august. also the fixed income move preceding this has been a lot less violent because investors are short, or underweight. today's move was a big one. again, treasury yields moved up in january. there was upward momentum in yields that was writing pressure for stocks whereas recently treasury yields have not gone anywhere. >> not even 3%. recommend people be
4:09 pm
invested in stocks, cyclical, betting on the strength of the economy. not getting defensive. what would change your mind? what arenot tariffs, going to be the risks signs going forward? >> yeah, tariffs are something you have to watch. you have to watch in the context of confidence in corporate profits. not been a lot of economic impact or impact on profits through the $50 billion so far. as we put more terrorists, they act as a tax. companies have choices, particularly american companies, do you pass on that cost or pass it on? for earnings are very high. 25% earnings growth in the second quarter. 10%, 2020, to 2019,
4:10 pm
another 10%. expectations are companies will continue to earn. we have to see that. if tariffs dampen growth, investors have to rethink the equity mix they have. right now we believe the fundamental conditions in the u.s. support being positive on equities. >> thank you so much, anthony saglimbene, ameriprise strategist, and cameron. coming up, trump going all in on china from north dakota. sitting.hreats are we will head to washington. from new york, this is bloomberg. ♪

4:17 pm
the equation, which it does. this is going all in on a trade war with china. joe: all in. earlier, weon tv are still talking, we have communications with xi. what is the status in terms of your reporting? >> what we have been hearing for a long time is it is low level stuff. we saw this when it was mid level officials, about possible talks at a higher level. there has not been a high level negotiating going on between the chinese and trump administration. the answer is, there is a simple reason for that, neither feels like bending right now. certainly the trump administration does not. the chinese value and capitulate . this is going to drag on for a while. these 200 billion in
4:18 pm
chinese imports being hit, that is going to have an impact. if you go with the 267 president trump was talking about, that takes you to all imports from china in the u.s., something like $505 billion last year. >> should be interesting. no deal with china. no deal with canada or mexico. we saw a headline, no nafta deal will be reached today. that is not a surprise. it did not seem like that was going to happen. what happens next? and theyack next week drag on. for some time. the next deadline is the end of the month when the administration used to present a deal to congress. it could be some wiggle room

4:20 pm
the ability to do diligence, they created a buying opportunity for managers. what about in terms of sectors or international versus domestic? what are the implement -- implications? >> for private markets, there will be a less impact because the companies tend to be smaller, which tend to be domestic-oriented. obviously to the extent it expands, people think about other factors as they are making new investments. >> i wonder whether this time is different in terms of volatility and value because there has been so much money that's gone into these markets and they've been trying to seek opportunities. are there fire sales going on you notow, or can deploy the capital? >> when people talk about the
4:21 pm
asset classney, the has grown. it is spread out. the numbers are looking at a bigger set of assets than the past. in terms of deployment, it looks good. managers are able to match up the capital that is available with the opportunity. it is a good balance today. joe: how much of the appeal is not diminished volatility, but the daily volatility? fundamental values are going to swing around. we don't have to look at them every day on a market to market basis getting hit every time trump tweets. >> that is important. team that asset compares to the public market. if you look at rick adjusted volatility, it is still lower. >> when you see jitters, where are the opportunities? >> it is early to point out
4:22 pm
specific opportunities. there are a couple of things to keep in mind. one is currency. for managers across geography, currents he could have a big impact. the other place is the venture capital space, given how important china has become as a source of venture capital. >> that could be one of the things that are negative for the see thisarkets, if we play out, a crimping of some of the investment in venture capital? >> that is one scenario. historically the u.s. was the largest source. that has changed in recent years. china has become a big source. money,at about u.s. which is interested in china, chinese internet growth, technology? does the threat of a trade were change that or is that something that can continue to some extent since it is not about shipping
