like recovery. history tells us you have to be careful of the first bounce after a selloff. it was a brutal two days. the dow lost over 1100 points. s&p futures up 27, 1% rally. twin peaks for the s&p, that is winnable market has in the past come to an end. euro-dollar flat on the day. fx market telling the fed, keep going. 317 -- yield up by 3.17%. lotn: a lot to watch and a to get to when it comes to bank earnings. let's take time for your morning brief. 8 a.m. eastern, third-quarter earnings from wells fargo, more banks on deck. 10:30 p.m., the fed randal quarles will speak at the finance event in bali.

activision lizard releasing new blackout, for call of duty 4. i used to run with people who would talk to the people online who were waiting overnight for these games. jason: your people? alix: maybe? battle star galactica? we are joined. jason: we are indeed. it is all about banks. lisa, jpmorgan hitting the pages. what is your take away? >> it is interesting. the top line beat, they missed on fixed income trading and compensated with again in equity. --in came from loan growth the again came from loan growth and the tax cuts. this is the key.

interest rates rising much faster than they are increasing. the fees they pay to depositors. they are catching this huge margin that any rise in overnight rates is going to bolster. this is interesting. the main question will be -- how sustainable is this at a time when bond trading business, once the engine of profitability, looks like it is less so? jason: luke, what do you make of it? what will the market make of it? >> i am interested that this will move the stock. that interest margin angle -- the other thing is we should be worried about rising rates. we were worried about a flattening yield curve and supply. we should be worried more about the man. that has traditionally been -- about demand. that is traditionally an indicator of revenue growth. we were talking about something that can arrest the selloff. jamie dimon, february 11, 2016 -- i just bought a ton of

jpmorgan stocks. it was too cheap. that was perfectly timed. in an interview a couple weeks backs,ybacks versus cap i prefer more cap backs, we are doing a lot of buybacks as well. into some more enthusiastic about buying his own shares. >> expenses were up 7%. that is interesting when you want a lean balance sheet. technical damage. come inside the bloomberg. s&p 500 dropping. since february. we always bounce up the levels. a more decisive break. walking through the technicals. what do you see? >> not always. we have had a close below and then we manage to get back above -- alix: do not ruin my mojo. >> i love the yellow line but i do not want to put my faith in the aligned particularly -- in

that yellow line when we should see fundamentals takeover. it would be nice to get above the 200 day moving average and we can let earnings to the work. that would be the main takeaway. jason: all right. >> the yellow line does not do much for me. alix: the line is purple, ok? >> the purple line, i do not necessarily have faith. we are seeing more stability today. what we saw overnight with lows in the riskier credit etf's, there seems to be a pause, a deep breath, -- ok we have seen a freak out, and we can start seeing value and pick it up again. when we were talking earlier about this is not armageddon, this is not the beginning of a prolonged selloff, that seems to be right. alix: what i didn't understand about the price action yesterday, growth did well, tech

was not the biggest loser. the nasdaq was only off half a percent. what did you make of that? >> i found that to be supportive. if tech and momentum are going to be your biggest losers for days on end, that is when you start to worry. growth and momentum stocks have sharp reversals. growth never really underperforms value by as much and as quickly as it has in recent sessions. we do not have a lot of things to go back to in the past five to 10 years that remind us of that. call itreminder, something more but the move away from growth leading the way down to something that will be. >> the other issue in the market has to do with the u.n.. the u.s. treasury department will recommend secretary mnuchin that china is not a currency manipulator. dollar-yuan nearing the seven point. this is significant.

we need to live in a world where seven is not the red line. lisa: if we are living in a world of weaker yuan, that will threaten emerging markets in a significant way. we will see if this is the end of pressure from the treasury department. steve mnuchin can still label china a currency manipulator. this is just the advisory from the treasury department. there was data overnight showing china's trade surplus with the u.s. hit a record $134 billion last month. this will only and rage president trump or encourage more of a trade tension backdrop because this is what is -- this is what he is targeting to try to reduce. jason: how does this play into the market? was that underneath what we have seen over the last couple days? luke: this is telling, it is mainly about yields. we were awakening to the chinese cuts and a spike in implied

volatility. yesterday we are hearing things about trump and choosing bring meeting. ais would be a nice way, sense that it will not get out of hand. >> i have to disagree. this week was about yields but it was at least as much about trade especially in light of the reporting of the microchips implanted in u.s. hardware imported from china. you can see this by the action when we got headlines about china, xi jinping and president trump meeting, the market rebounded. direct correlation. yields were coming off highs. it is front and center for traders. alix: we will bring it down over the next couple hours. thank you. you can find all the charts we used and more on gtv , save our charts by running gtv

third quarter includes the slower summer months. alix: were you buying on the dip? walter: certainly with new money coming in from clients, we were buyers over the past several days. financials in general have been disappointing this year. we are hopeful they can catch a bid on the rebound as interest yieldmove up and the curve steepen's. jason: we have also heard this morning from at least one regional bank. looking at them for metrics. what do you see? pnc, we will be looking at the positive pricing. what we saw last quarter, deposit pricing lower than on where we are in the fed hike cycle. that is positive for all banks. last quarter we saw in terms of

factor. all of these of these are come together to force equity markets to reevaluate. >> getting to a point in the cycle were volatility goes up, as a function of the fed getting into hawkish territory. that means equities will have a tougher time. >> growth has been robust this year. earnings have been robust as well and we have not seen the same performance in markets. that was already a play. overall, there is a profit taking. >> u.s. equities are overvalued. stocks are extremely valued. the 2000 stocks incredibly high. is a way iervalued would describe the u.s. equity market. alix: joining us on the phone is keith parker. keith, i want to get your take. wednesday and then

out of value on thursday, what does that tell you? keith: the rotation growth devalue -- growth devalue, we have been -- growth value. quality growth, we stick to that theme on the back of rising volatility with trade risk on the horizon and rising rates. we still think health care remains our core defensive, long. it continues to outperform. we would be a buyer of tech. jason: one of the quotes that "unequivocally overvalued." what do you think? i would have to disagree after this selloff. times, forward5

earnings at the close. that is not cheap but i would not characterize it as overvalued. it is a fair multiple now. keith,d agree with focusing on higher-quality companies and growth at a reasonable price is the mantra versus extreme picking growth versus value. alix: as yields came up, finally get rotation into value will put pressure on organic earnings growth because of higher yields. when does that conversation make sense for you? keith: it is tougher at these levels where we have seen real rates rise well above 1%, sub 50 basis points last year. with inflation decelerate in, it is tough to argue for rise in yields further that supercharges that value play. there was a point this year where value got cheap.

we like certain parts of the value spectrum. again, in terms of a rise in wees and a crimp in yield, would tilt toward large over small where small caps are over levered and have exposure to rising short rate. alix: walter, you are the value guy. where do you see value over the last five days? walter: growth at a reasonable price. growth-value discussion is a sector call. when you look at indices, technology is at 35%. health care, two thirds of the growth index. it depends on what sectors you think will outperform. we think it is important to have a blend. we like tech and health care on the selloff but we also like more value sectors like financials and industrials that have also been hit hard. jason: anything that will change your mind, walter, today on those sectors you laid out?

walter: not really. in thishas been spared selloff outside consumer staples and utilities. if you want to play the rebound i would not look to those sectors. i would look to those that have been beat up the most to rebound the most as we recover. alix: thank you so much, as we break down the value versus growth conversation. coming up, live to the imf meeting in bali with the man who has the eu's financial services policy. it is about iranian sanctions and how europe will go against the u.s.. this is bloomberg. ♪

and see pricing come down, that is typically where private equity excels. we have seen that. jason: valuations have been the gaining factor? erik: you're not seeing one of the big weapons that priorit -- that private equity has, taking it private. paying a premium above that does not make any sense. one of the big sources has gone away. you could start to see that come back if you see a price correction. ison: one of the overhangs the dry powder that has been accrued by the managers. how much is that on investors'minds? erik: there is $2 trillion of this on capital. seems large. people are talking about it like it is a real problem. data points. if you take that number as a percentage of global aum, less

than 2%. our entire asset class is less than 2% of the global a u.n.. even -- aum. basing,the investment that capital would take three years to deploy. that does not sound scary. jason: scary for a lot of people, hedge funds. we are starting to hear more and more about exposure to hedge funds in tech stocks. providege fund weakness opportunity for private equity to make their case the big institutional investors? erik: hedge fund weakness over the last decade relative to other markets has benefited the private equity side. you have seen capital flows, hedge funds losing market positions in terms of capital raised and you have seen dollars migrate. that trend is likely to continue. investors fundamentally like the alignment of interest more on

the private equity side than they do in the hedge fund side and as our industry is not known for transparency, it is more transparent than hedge funds. jason: before we were talking about volatility, we were excessively talking about interest rates. all eyes on the fed including the president, notably. what does the changing interest rate environment do positively or negatively for private equity? erik: here is where we split the private equity side versus the private credit side. , on private equity rising rate environment historically has not had much effect on the overall return. essentially, rising rates get passed through to the seller, and purchase prices come down. i would expect that is what we will see as pricing cools off, as it is in public, same in private. on the private credit side, it creates another set of opportunities. you have seen an explosion of capital raising on private credit side. we are still in early innings

despite the market raising money. that will continue for a long time. jason: let's stay on credit. that has been a fascinating boomtown. side,on the public credit people are struggling to hit returns they find satisfactory. returns have been anemic. that is not been true on the private credit side. immediate reaction is -- they must be taking more risk. no. you see a more inefficient market that frankly has been under banked. maybe it will be over banks again but you have taken out a lot of players due to regulatory and split the market wide open where the inefficiency is rampant and people are taking advantage. jason: we talked about returns. returns coming back for private equity? erik: you have basically seen private equity generating mid teens performance after fee.

most investors would find that attractive. and years went public equity market is posting 20% rate of return, 15% has people question liquidity and duration. i do not think anyone believes the public equity market will do that forever. mid teens over a long time looks good. jason: what are you paying for this? people expect the cost of this will come down. erik: it has been coming down but not much. this industry has been resilient around that. goes back to performance. investors are measuring this on a net fee basis and net, net looks attractive. side, ass to the gp much as we would like to pay less, they are not willing to give it for less. jason: always enjoy talking to you. your market outlook is out today. we will see what the next cycle holds. back to you. alix: love to see you drill

across their portfolio the commercial real estate is outperforming the market, and consumer growth across those group,ies with citi bearing in mind i have not seen the overall growth. but looking at their revenue and the fact that they are actually growing, i would say it's hurting the revenue. trading results for j.p. morgan were actually a little worse on fixed, and better in equities, we would want to hear more about that. but overall this could be due to mix, just like differences in the quarter. jason: and when we think back even the last couple of years, there has been that element of a variable, certainly, for a lot of these both bracket banks. i willwith citigroup point bet the pot -- the cost ratio is positive, they are delivering on that. they are coming in ahead of their guidance in the first half

in september, as of their presentation they updated some guidance, giving a clear path forward and they are delivering and that's a key positive. alix: to recap there are some earnings trickling out, city had -- citi had a nice beat, up 9% year on year, reversing five quarters of losses -- if i quarter losing ski -- streak area --. -- streak. you also had wells fargo earnings coming back better than estimated and loan growth coming , so solid forlion wells fargo. we are still waiting for mortgage information from wells fargo, and citigroup's loan growth. stay with us for second because i want to bring in a brian .elski and lisa erickson brian, what's interesting is

that in the last couple of quarters of some of these banks have brought -- blown it out of the water. and this is a little mixed. it's like back to basics. the boring stuff is good. is that enough to reverse the losses? >> yes. you are talking to someone who's seen these banks for some time financial sector -- and the financial sectors, and a broken clock will ring correctly twice a day. it's a game of catch-up that is beginning, and we are starting to see it early in the selloff. yesterday the selloff was more broad, and yields were down. i think at the end of the day these assets were longer-term, and it will be interesting to see what the wealth management business is as part of the earnings to come out. i venture they will be strong in the third quarter. we think the stocks are headed higher. jason: i want to bring you in, lisa, we have been anticipating

these earnings over the past couple of days, what do they tell us about the broader earning environment? especially in light of rising rates from the fed? what do you take away? we are not allowed to speak directly on the financial sector, we are a part of that group. but we are generally upbeat on corporate earnings for the third quarter. if you look at the key backdrop, what you see in the economy, if you look at a broad array of indicators, they are still looking pretty good. dashboard shows that 60% are still in positive territory. and if you are following the guidance around corporate america, we are hearing generally good management of expectations. and the ability to come through. year-over-year for the full year we are expecting earnings right in line with consensus up 20%, which is a good number. those positive

bottom up fundamentals and top-down outlook, we are constructive on earnings seasons for the third quarter. allison i want to get you back in here, we're getting more information on the loan portfolio, how does it stack up for you? it's a positive, given what we are seeing in the overall environment. ist citigroup really issued what portions of their portfolio are growing. the other positive that i would say, credit is something we have been watching for them. is lower than a year ago despite the growth, and that's positive. alix: revenue was down 8%, coming in at 2 million, brian, if we see strains in the large

categories for j.p. morgan and citigroup, what happens when you're at 3.25% as a 10 year yield? is it sustainable? yes. with the fed raised four times out of crisis level, we're still early on in the economic recovery, the market and the economy continues to grow. earnings are great. financials in particular, and tech stocks put out a report reinforcing the fact that the industry is going up which means the economy is going up which means that the loans will be coming out and you will be building stuff. so we keep it as simple as possible but people forget that because we are deathly afraid of the financial services sector. and people have a negative mantra about the big banks. the primary themes are wealth management and commercial banking, which are still major assets around the world. we think these stocks are starting to rotate.

alix: lisa, walk me through yields, what is your tipping point and what gets you nervous? yields willpecting continue to move up, but we are not nervous about the outlook overall. the reason is that we continue to expect the moderate rise upward. if you look at what drives yields, it's what's going on with growth and inflation. what we see on those fronts are very positive in the sense that growth,solid economic but it's not excessive, at moderate levels overall. what we're seeing from the inflation data is the same. upwardould be some pressure from the tight labor market but all the numbers we're seeing so far are nice in the sense that they are showing some upward trajectory, but not excessive levels. when you take those pieces together that supportive of a moderate rise kneeled advisor -- in the yield environment.

while that will provide a challenge to equity moderations we don't see it upsetting the apple cart. alix: thank you all for being with us. tuned, we have an interview with john trees very of wells fargo. that's coming up, also volatility is striking back. we will talk about if the market bounce can be sustained. and we will recap the earnings really fast, with citigroup you have investment banking missing but coming in solid, the long portfolio grew 3%, the growth is slower but still growing. quarterack to basics for j.p. morgan, but you did have core loan growth continuing to climb higher. this is bloomberg. ♪

seeing a recovery after the longest losing streak of president trump's presidency, is the come back going to be sustainable? we spoken to investors about that and here's what they have to say. correction, but it's a modest correction. it's rather cathartic as opposed to life-threatening. in my judgment, we are getting to an opportunity. care,like health and text and we --tech care, and financial and industrial. hashe rise in volatility, traditionally meant that quality has outperformed. and we stick to that being on the back of rising volatility with trade risk on the horizon. and we would be a buyer of tech on the death.

-- the dip. >> the fed is getting into more hawkish territory, that means that equities will have a temperate time. >> earnings and growth have been robust, and we haven't seen the same performance in markets. there is also a process that is happening. >> i think these have come to force the markets to reevaluate. >> u.s. equities are unequivocally overvalued, gold stocks are especially valued, there's a very high valuation. but overall, overvalued. alix: still with us is lisa erickson and brian belski. brian, the bizarre thing was wednesday you had value starting to rally, then growth was rallying, what you want to do? value investing is the most

intrinsic fundamental strategy law. are actually showing value attributes but no one believes it. we have been in a concentrated area with respect to buying the fangs --faangs. we from our perspective, believe the next three to five years we will be moving into a , that heity march cap really value oriented market, financials are a large part of reallyue index -- a value oriented market, financials are a large part of the value index. there's emotional entanglement with respect to financials that people do not want to buy them. from a valuation and earnings growth standpoint, and from a dividend growth standpoint over the next three to five years,

u.s. financials have the strongest dividend growth in the world. we think they are under owned by institutions and the best buying opportunity in a decade and value will be the winner. jason: so why is no one listening to you on financials? >> in no other time in my almost 30 year career has my portfolio manager clients exhibiting such high turnover. that means they are renting stocks, speed dating stocks, they are chasing performance. willess is that financials catch a bid, chased them higher, and when they come up with some sort of excuse they will sell them. .hort-term memories that has to unwind and the true fundamentals of the sector will drive it higher. lisa, when you look at the equity market of a value versus growth scenario, the conversation is as yields go higher, grows momentum stocks have a lot more to prove in terms of organic earnings

growth, what do you see as a tipping point? now we are agnostic on value versus growth. what we would emphasize is that we are on a sector basis, as some of the other investors you are interviewing were continuing to us house. we continue to see -- to espouse. in this very moderate growth environment we think that investors will favor things that can give them an extra ounce of growth, and certainly in those two areas you see a number of secular forces continuing to support opportunities to gain market share and drive new services. online is much more a part of our lives, shopping habits are changing, mobile computing is a bigger driver. and there are clear subsectors and companies that can take advantage of that.

that is where we would advise clients to look in the u.s. equity market. jason: so the tech selloff of a couple of days ago, overblown and people should not be worried about getting back in there. even given the nice run they have had? >> we are advising our clients positions,their tech and remember that the longer-term forces and some bottom-up characteristics of the companies. we are advising our clients to continue to stay committed to that sector. alix: are you upset? we tend to overweight tech in the real money portfolios, there's the consistent earnings growth, dividend growth, and cyclical tech. i think cyclical tech probably has some or earnings. but people fail to recognize that the technology sector has been the most stable earner in the last 10 years, from a secular structural basis the sector has changed dramatically.

and we think it's a great sector to own. brian, good to see you. lisa will be sticking with us. we will bring you some highlights from the big tank earnings -- bank earnings. we had a drop in call, talking about the administration, trump, the economy, and you'll remember this is the guy who said we -- he was smarter than the president. the business community has an active and good dialogue across the whole administration on trade. he says the ministration should be aggressive and we think that's the right strategy. get the allies done and face china. he's given the trump administration a lot of love. we will break down that call with j.p. morgan. as is bloomberg. ♪ is bloomberg. ♪

alix: time now for the bottom line, we will look at three

companies worth watching, first is not a company but companies. hedge fund hotels, what do you think happened when tech sold off? jason: they got crushed, some of the biggest hedge funds in the we saw that huge selloff on thursday there was this great piece. i will tweeted out. , it's anro wrote amazing thing that has happened. but this could be a good time for hedge funds is volatility is coming back. alix: and if you are a hedge fund with low leverage, you are feeling good. jason: and you did would you are supposed to do. you are a hedge fund. alix: and so you down by 3%. what are you watching? jason: softbank is going to pull off what we think will be the biggest ipo ever. anchors, no more is in the mix -- nomura

the mix. alix: joining us now for a look at banks is brooke sutherland, talk about investment banking. what was your big takeaway so far? >> one thing i thought was interesting was investment banking schemes were down for different reasons. citigroup talked about a drop in underwriting fees, which is interesting. one thing we have been looking for is the and and a activity, i looked up the numbers before i came out here, $205 trillion , that's on track to be 2015 which was a huge deal for megadeals. we are on pace to be better than 2006. but a lot of these deals are not getting done, when they are not getting done because of regulatory push back the investment banks do not get paid or they have to wait collect fees. the question is is this a timing

issue? will we see the fees catch up or are we starting to see the beginnings of a slowdown where companies are concerned about the regulatory environment and whether or not they should push ahead? jason: we will certainly hear more from jamie dimon the other big bank ceos on this idea that may be the dealmaking nirvana we have been in for so long, i remember the days when you are .riting about m&a's everyday it wasn't that long ago. >> the thing to remember is that this is still a boom. if we transition to a slowdown at not like we are not going to see strong activity, but it may not be quite as crazy. alix: but also more competition. the big banks say they are going to do the large m&a's, but they're trying to get a medium-sized one, that has to be part of it as well. >> absolutely, you see some

boutique banks on big investments and they are poaching a lot of investment bankers from big banks. that's playing into this. there are also the questions about debt load on these companies, companies that have done some any deals and they are dealing with a leverage burden, are they able to keep up the pace of activity? there was a great piece on paul todman earlier this week. alix: thank you for joining us. we are a minute away from the latest beat on a trade and inflation. we will break down the import export data and in a few minutes, we will have the outspoken jamie dimon on the media call. this is bloomberg. ♪ erg. ♪

alix: the latest readthrough on trade comes up in about 20 seconds of time, you see asset up by 1.5%, and european banks getting a nice boost with solid

earnings coming out of citigroup , j.p. morgan, and wells fargo. break,lar is taking a the euro dollar is down by 2/10 of a percent. we are climbing higher with a potential resolution with the u.s. and turkey when it comes to the pastor and yields are on offer in the u.s.. now,rice is coming down the price indexes coming at 2.7%, that mrs. asked immense -- that mrs. estimates -- misses estimates. this is beating estimates that we were at 3.1% with the him port price index. the export prices are coming in a little weaker. -- the import price index. the export prices are coming in a little weaker. china had a blowout trade surplus with the u.s. and their export market did not seem hindered from the trade war that we had seen. jason: so let's make some sense of this.

for that we turn to michael, joining us here in new york, and we still have lisa erickson of u.s. bank wealth management. help us understand this? >> i'm looking at this quickly, missed theke alix story of your import prices, and it's your middle name, oil. we have a chart of the trade weighted dollar and how it has changed with import prices leaving petroleum. if you take that out you see a line. and there is a big rise in import prices, basically because of oil prices this time around. it is not something to be overly concerned about yet. yet the take of the oil prices to see what's happening. alix: so industrial supply prices rose 1.5% and that's solely oil? not aluminum or steel? >> those are in there, but we

did a separate reading with just oil. the tariffs don't figure into this number because those are not paid by the companies that are receiving them on either end of the tariffs. china puts on retaliatory tariffs, it's the chinese companies buying u.s. products that have to pay more, and the u.s. companies that have to pay more on this end in terms of imports. so that does not show up. but we do have some numbers, let me bring up another chart, i wanted to show people this. this is the china trade numbers that came out today. the yellow lines are the trade surplus with china, it rises. the white line, chinese exports to the united states, a record, up 14%. it looks like chinese companies were rushing to get stuff out the door, we had a lot of things covered by the tariffs, including electric motors, electrical products included in the exports.

indo see a tariff the fact the china -- effect in the china trade numbers. but not necessarily in imports. jason: lisa come on back in and remind is why we care about these numbers from your perspective? if we break this down and we look at the economic data, how does this play through? especially as mike was saying, from a trade percent this. the impact of this trade war that the united states has embarked on. >> generally what we are looking for is confirmation that inflation is still on an upward increase but at a moderate level, and secondarily, what's going on with the consumer and trade. what we are seeing from the report is a nice set of numbers, we are seeing evidence of inflation, particularly as you noted. but not concerning levels, at more moderate levels. that's reading in with the bother -- the broader inflation

picture. we can seembers, that it's at a relatively contained level. what this means for the grocery, the consumer is able to continue to support the economy. some of the import activity continues to support their ability to contribute to the growth. and the consumer is the big part of the u.s. economy. that's a reassuring number. in terms of trade, that's an area we want to launch with continued concern -- to watch with continued concern. some of these numbers on the export side from china are really a blip to circumvent the tariffs coming in. or can the level be sustained? will consumer spending be there going forward? jason: what data will show us the effect of the tariffs mike? >> a good place to look is the

isn numbers. are importing the prices and paying for raw materials. it will show up in that. we'll also see it in the bp eyes -- bpi's. an interesting thing has happened over the next couple -- the last couple of days that will affect the inflation picture. if you take a look at this told me to bring this on friday. the yellow line is the 10 year yield, the blue line is the s&p 500. look at the white line, that's the bloomberg dollar index. when you have disruptions around the world, money flows into the dollar, that did not happen in this case. maybe the dollar has peaked. forces maylationary start to dissipate. alix: while we are trying to suss out neutral rate, and the

fed hike, president trump is doubling down on what he thought of the fed and higher rates are you here is what he had to say. >> i think the fed is far too stringent, and they are making a mistake. and it's not right. despite that, we are doing very well but it's not necessary, in my opinion, and i think i know about it better than they do. lisa, what did you make of that? the president cannot fire jay powell, but in terms of their effort to be above thent and get basis points, how does that change the conversation? in terms of what the fed is doing we think they are on a reasonable course. andou look at unemployment inflation, we have a tight labor market and contained inflation, they want to maintain that

goldilocks scenario. so they will continue those moderate paces of yield increases to make sure that we stay in a good zone. is tough part about this that what happens if we go about the new national rate, we are not a point where there is a clear neutral rate. there is a range where people feel like that can fall. so i think what's reassuring is that this -- they are data inendent, and they are clear that they are monitoring the effects of their actions and what is going on in the economy in general as they continue to make way on their projected rate increases. lisa erickson of u.s. bank wealth management, joining us, thank you for your time. and of course michael mckee with his charts and a nice friday outfit. [laughter] nullity was making

headlines outside the business world. taylor riggs is here with first word news. >> steve mnuchin says that china is not manipulating the yuan. pressure him at declare china a currency manipulator, but the staff is not done so. with the escalation of the trade fight -- tag for hurricane michael could be at least $25 billion, this is the strongest storm to hit the u.s. mainland in the florida panhandle. private insurance will get hit, but there are $10 billion in claims, and about half the damage will not be covered by insurance. learned that david powell is no longer being considered as the next u.s. ambassador to the united nations. he told senior officials at the bank that he plans to say. -- to stay. president trump called him

twice, nikki haley is leaving at the end of the year. global news, 24 hours a day on air and on tictoc on twitter, powered by more than 2700 journalists in more than 120 countries. i am taylor riggs, this is bloomberg. thank you so much. and with this market fluctuation we have to keep in mind we are awaiting the verdict on the release of the pastor in turkey. the lira is climbing on the news as they wait for that. also a lot of political .spects to this as well this is a key issue for president trump, he's been very hasl about this and it ticked off a lot of fluctuation in the currency and broader emerging-market. there's a political element, and a broader economic element to this as well. so we are awaiting that from turkey. waiting for also analyst to kick up into false team for jp morgan.

we do have some headlines, jamie dimon crash the media call, so there was that as well. he comes in strong when it comes to the affected tax rate, the economy is doing well, a big fan of jay powell, says he's doing and taking theb, helm at the analysts call which started a few minutes ago. we will watch for anything else. lakes is the overall pipeline is strong, so we will monitor that as we go. coming up, the clock is ticking for italy, they have to present their deficit goal for the e.u.. we will discuss it with lorenzo codogno. this is bloomberg. ♪

>> this is bloomberg daybreak,

coming up in the next hour, bloomberg markets, the open. deutsche bank's chief local strategist, bankim chadha. ♪ the clock is ticking for italy, italian lawmakers voted in favor of the populist governments fiscal outline, including a higher deficit goal. officials said this will break the rules. this is ahead of the monday deadline. this is part of a story we have been following. codogno,s is lorenzo the former italian treasury chief economist and director general with intimate knowledge of how something like this could play out. what is next? question.a big i think that's an answer that's waiting to happen, because of

the situation stands as the moment -- at the moment, i can only see a big confrontation. me with financial markets. the situation might get worse before it gets better. eventually someone will back down, and change the budget plans. but in my view, the sooner the -- happens the better. that allows time for them to adjust the fiscal plans, and that would be positive in my view. otherwise, if the situation deteriorates without coming to a breaking point, they might actually get to the european elections next year and they already said quite is pleasingly win they want to have a big at the european elections. in order to change the official goal -- the fiscal rules. i think the outcome is very open , and the situation needs to be

closely watched over the next coming days and weeks. i think it will be a lot of action. jason: for you watching in the rest of europe for their commentary? who needs to step in? who are the most important voices? overcomeave already the discussion at the parliamentary budget committee. and the budget committee approved the budget despite the negative opinion by major institutions like the bank of italy, and the court of accountants. the next step is really a discussion of the parliamentary level. eventually the president might reject the budget, but the final word is up to parliament. i would not expect the parliament to move back unless something big happens. on the european side, it's

pretty likely that the commission will reject the and then the european ministers of finance will agree to push italy to excessive deficit procedure, which is not a disaster but would be another step that things are not going well. all of that is playing out in the market as well. i want to plug a chart for our viewers, you can see the spread at 303 basis points. and we saw that the line in the sand was at 400, and that we will not let it get there because it's all about speculators. what happens to the spread at the scenario you see, plays out. as i mentioned, both the european and a time fiscal rules

found --th limited power in the frameworks. it's really up to the financial markets who act as bond vigilantes recently. could happen? it could happen that the spread widens farther. there are some investors that could come in and moderate the situation in the near-term. but it's a big issue going forward about the flow and who will buy the government paper if the situation is one that we just discussed. so it could be a major problem in the near future. alix: will there be a level where the market can influence italy in the e.u.? does it have to be at 2012 levels or are we inflated in a

way that we weren't? >> i think it's difficult to tell. really the transmission to the economy through the banks. as for the banks we need to look at this individually as a specific institution, because they have different sized holdings and government paper as well as different situations. lossesng to record the in their bond portfolio, it will impinge on capital, and reduce lending to the economy. but it is pretty slow. so i think what could happen is if the spread widens, maybe there are some problems with the in havinges in place a fluid transaction in the market.

i don't think there is a level, but some people measure at 400 and have begun keeping point, so to speak. codogno, really wonderful to get your perspective on that. here's what i am watching as we head into this friday after a to mull chu. jp morgan earnings, i want to turn to taylor riggs has been listening to the analyst call, you know the jamie dimon has dumped it -- jumped in, what do we know? >> some colorful commentary to thethe least, he says weakness in spreads have been offset by some of the uptick in emerging markets and currencies. and commodities as well as equities. they has some strong client activity. loan growth was interesting and we got a lot of comments from him, they are expecting the six to 7% loan growth -- 6% to 7% loan growth.

we did get a lot of comments from him on rates and jerome powell and the fed. he says they're looking at 4% rates, his comments saying that rates might hit i've percent were up -- hit 5% were a possibility of what they might see. but not totally surprised that president trump is making comments as the business community is watching what washington does and the fed remains open. they are hoping for a steeper curve, higher rates, and some good comments from jamie dimon. alix: really great stuff, thank you. of course looking at those numbers, it was really back to basics for jp morgan, there were missed six estimates but their loan growth hit records in terms of doing their he well, and their average core loan was up 6%.

expenses moved higher because of investments as well as higher cost, but that stock was able to hold onto gains in the free market -- in the premarket. us on the phone -- has a 3000 year target for hows&p 500, julian emanuel, do you feel about that target? >> we feel fine about that target. we expected the kind of volatility that we have seen over the last week or so. we expected it in september, and part of the reason it has been as intense as it has been is because it did not happen in september. when you look at the uncertainty surrounding the midterms, politics, clearly the tone of earnings calls to come. there is enough to think that the market would not continue in a straight line. said that, the work that

we have done has shown that after midterms, the november and december and following year, tends to be very good for stocks . when you look at this morning, we think that thinking about yesterday the price action got reasonably disorderly at the end of the day. and that is the kind of thing we like to see in thinking that the market is likely to find legs. the reaction this morning thus is early, of course to bank stock earnings is very encouraging. jason: let's talk about this morning, what was it within or the commentary we are hearing from jamie dimon and others that makes you feel better about where we are going. >> if you look at it, it varies from report to report. it shows that when you have a strong economy, the rising rate in environment and the health the capital markets you have multiple levers to win.

one firm reports that net interest margin trends are solid , another says long growth is good, perhaps better than expected. the one we think is most encouraging is where fixed income revenues came in better than expected in an environment such as what we have seen and what we think we are likely to the, particularly where the fed is going and where the 10 year yields are going. we think this is going to be a good time going forward for fixed income market making operations. alix: especially if last week was any indication, you will get a lot of client activity. you also deal with derivatives. what is the best way to hedge risk right now? >> we would be less inclined to be hedging risk right now. we have set for a number of weeks that we thought that 2709 was a number where we would start to add.

we got to 2710 yesterday. we are thinking it's time to be patiently buying, in anticipation of higher prices. ,f you did want to hedge risk you don't want to be an outright buyer, but you want offset the premium. we think the time for hedging has largely past. alix: what about the overall higher volatility regime? are we in one? will that be across asset change? one. think we are in started with the volatility that we saw in january and february. in a lot of ways, as you age in a cycle, it's very natural for .olatility to shift higher particularly in an environment where there is now a weston about -- a question about

whether you prefer value or growth given the growth of the international markets. for us it's ok the volatility is higher. you have to change your mindset and be more patient, your stomach might churn as you have seen in the past few days. but it does not mean that stocks will not go higher. we think they do. jason: so you are patiently buying, what are you buying? >> we continue to think the shift that we have seen over the last five or six weeks, particularly in the wake of stabilization of the yield curve is good for financials. financials have been psychologically and i think a previous guest spoke about this, really psychologically held back by the flattening yield curve. what we see in retrospect is the yield curve at this level is much less due to the potential

for a recession straight ahead, and more due to the fact of the fed trying to control the economy and actually ask end -- extend the growth cycle the short end and pressures we are seeing on the long end are now shifting. to us, financials look good. we also think energy is a place you want to be as well. alix: it's so great to get you want today. thank you very much. and jason, thank you for joining me. jason: happy friday. alix: coming up, the open with jon ferro, bankim chadha is joining us, this is bloomberg. ♪
