4:09 am
anything also can expect? jeremy: the communique has been readied prior to the leaders arriving, but it doesn't look like that will be the case this time around. it will be fascinating to see you forget some kind of joint agreements this time. there are so many variables, as you just touched upon. it does leave markets very nervous. an easing into get the trade tensions? people are hoping that trump will not leave a nasty aftertaste, by saying that he could still do more. i think markets are hoping we can see a dialing down in the trade tensions. francine: so how should we look at this? is there is a trade deal, then ,hings are ratcheted down, or we understand he has a piece of paper saying that you should put --a 5% tariffs on carmakers
4:10 am
25% tariffs on carmakers? jeremy: yes, there is that undertone in terms of issues and relations for tariffs to europe as well. if we can see a dialing down in the trade rhetoric, it will provide an optimistic tone for the global trade assumptions for 2019. it also puts a little but more impetus and onus on some of the other central banks to consider some degree of monetary tightening. a foot cannot see global trade looking optimistic in terms of a backdrop, that it provides more opportunities in terms of those currencies that are globally correlated. if we come out of the weekend with the global outlook looking a little better, then i think those currencies which will be benefiting in terms of global trade tensions dissipating, and those currencies which will see an impact in terms of central banks. francine: our markets question
4:11 am
on mliv, i urge everyone to go on to mliv . this is what we are asking. which assets will move the most on a cease-fire in the trade tensions? jeremy: in the currency would be looking at those that are very much correlated. , something like the australian dollar an obvious favorite in terms of that particular paradox. classes,of other asset i would look at those that would be benefiting from the presumption of trade activity being a little more optimistic. francine: have about the fed next week? they are data dependent, but i have seen some traders who think that the market has priced too much dovish mess from what we heard of jay powell statement? jeremy: we do have a tendency of seeing the market rush from one side of the boat to the other. saying, the fed are getting to that end of the cycle and maybe the market got a little bit ahead of itself. having said that, it is interesting the way the dollar
4:12 am
particularly, reacted yesterday. it is a market that is losing for signs of a data deceleration, to vindicate their forecast. if there will be data holding up to the back end of the year, looking for employment growth next week, that might be carrying over a market repricing. it may be the case that the market has become a little bit too dovish. we are assuming three hikes from here, one next month, then two in 2019 to read the market may have gone too ambitious internet repricing due to expectations in that context. francine: thank you, jeremy. coming up later today, we speaks to the uk's international trade secretary, he is said to support theresa may on her brexit deal. this may be a turning point for the vote on brexit on december 11. this is bloomberg. ♪

4:18 am
that leads us to a cheaper dollar. francine: what if inflation was back with a vengeance? the inflation we have been waiting for the last five months, all of a sudden, shows up in 2019. what is the probability of that? jeremy: i think one of the key issues for central banks, been the has tightening of the labor markets, and the lack of follow-through we are seeing with a wage growth. we see a substantial repricing in terms of inflation expect haitians. that best expectations. aat will be weighing down -- repricing in terms of inflation expectations. we will see average earnings and wage growth -- if we see average earnings and wage growth picked up, that will make an impact. but if we see a labor market probablyull, we will see a moderation in the wage growth, but i don't think it will in itself be a factor that

gorbachev in iceland. i believe my recollection was reagan was not tweeting. you have a president in buenos aires who is. it, i'm a very good developer, happily living my life when i see our country going in the wrong direction. against all odds, i decided to run for president and continue to run my business very legal and cool. talked about it on the campaign trail. the president goes on to say, lightly looked at doing a building somewhere in russia, put up zero money and guarantees ended under the project. witchhunt! is this president focused on g20? is.ael: one hopes he obviously, he is very concerned about michael guilty plea yesterday and it is a bit of a distraction for him. on the other hand, this has been wasg on since mueller
5:07 am
appointed a special prosecutor early in the president's term. he does have a lot of important meetings here, including the xi meeting he will have to focus on. tom: very quickly, through the busy weekend for our viewers worldwide, where in the weekend timeslot do we really need to pay attention to buenos aires? nightl: late on saturday u.s. time when the dinner breaks out between president trump and xi jinping, we might get some indication. neither side is planning to make a statement then, but that could change. we may see something after the dinner or as donald trump flies back to the united states. we might see a tweet. francine: we are already seeing a couple of tweets. thank you very much. michael is our bloomberg
5:08 am
international economics and policy correspondent. for more on xi and trump's meeting we are joined by tori brown. thank you for joining us. which side has the most to lose if the trade wars escalate, and what does that mean for who will give in more? six month ago, i would've said china has more pressure on it because it seems like the trade war is starting to have an impact on the chinese economy. goes to china with a lot of pressure on it. china is not a particularly open environment. there is all the pressure on him. it seems like mr. trump is very inre of outwitted xi jinping the last couple of months and created quite a lot of
5:09 am
confusion. i suppose we are going to see a kind of dinner over the next couple of days where there is going to be a lot of posturing. the underlying structural issues are of great symmetry between the u.s. and china and the u.s. feeling more and more like it is time to deal with this. wrong?e: what if it goes we also understand that president trump has on his desk in the oval office a document which says that he should put some tariffs on carmakers, everyone apart from canada and mexico. if this meeting with president xi doesn't go well, are you expecting more aggressive action from the u.s.? kerry: they have kept their promise is so far. when trump said he would put tariffs on, he put tariffs on. thatid pretty clearly
5:10 am
exports on $200 billion worth of --orts to the u.s. will have will go into effect. no one seems to know the ultimate outcome of this, economically and that is where this will be finally decided. whether there is going to be a big hit on the american economy. general motors is starting to say they're going to close plants. that hasn't hit an impact on trump's space. at the moment, america feels emboldened and related to make a message is it was a more equitable and reciprocal relationship. that is the core narrative, and it really depends on whether xi jinping can deliver that. tom: you have an extraordinary experience in china, including a re in inner mongolia a few years ago.
5:11 am
can you explain the character of the political patience of the beijing leadership? we toss out the word patients. the chinese are patient. i don't know what i am talking about. defined chinese patients around president xi's actions. kerry: they are patient inasmuch as the chinese people's big historic moment is imminent. this is the xi jinping core politics that china has her night don and is getting into a great power position. but makes people patient, the chinese middle class are not patient if their economy is going badly in the house prices are falling. they are no more patient than middle classes anywhere else, probably less. this is a dynamic that xi jinping talks into.
5:12 am
no one really knows how they are going to respond to this. , i think at the moment he doesn't look super secure. it is not like he is better than he was six months ago. the american pushback has unsettled him. tom: thank you so much. thrilled to have kerry with us with perspective on this important dinner. it is great to have you guys here wrapped around all of this international relations. how is pimco changed its definition of changes for investment given this news flow? is that the tried-and-true institutional three-year or five-year view, or is there a change? gene: i think there has been very little change. like most investors, we are
5:13 am
trying to weed through the political noise and decide what is signal and what is noise. a lot of this has been noise. i think the set up to this g20 is one where, a little bit like the fed, we have created a low bar for success. the market is set up to rally on something that is probably pretty marginal and not really game changing. we continue to look at the same old ranges on treasuries and other fixed income assets and think, they are not particularly attractive after the rally. let's see what comes out of it, that we are expecting it to be a very long road with a few bumps along the way. tom: what is so interesting here is every houses call hinges on dollar direction. summarize your conviction on u.s. dollar into 2019. >> we have a pretty bearish view on the dollar. that is largely predicated on two things.
5:14 am
first of all, we think the fiscal stimulus, which has been a very middle-of-the-road stimulus in the sense that it hasn't really provided any significant and hansen into the u.s. potential growth trajectory, it's good to start later in 2019 unexposed big vulnerabilities in the u.s. .conomy cycle,adjust it for the meaning the u.s. is right now at full employment, it becomes even more frightening. the second thing, i think what has been happening over the past year, largely related to the fiscal stimulus, is we have seen a massive divergence between and -- u.s. rates and rates from the rest of the world. rates have been rising because there has been a lot of hype about the fiscal stimulus in the u.s..
5:15 am
i think the market has been far too complacent about monetary tightening and the rest of the world. we are in a relatively normalized phase and economic fundamentals look quite healthy. we think there is going to be a repricing. these two factors are going to push the dollar lower. francine: do you think the markets were to dovish on the jay powell comments? thate misread something, the markets misread what he was saying? gene: i'm not sure i would call it a misread. i would think of it more as a set up in the wake of a major tightening. it is not surprising the fed is going to sound a little bit more cautious. i think if you had asked us a year ago, we would have said as the fed approaches some semblance of neutrality, they're going to become more data dependent. that is what they are doing. the change in his language was, a month ago, he talked about we
5:16 am
are a long way from neutral. , this time he said we are close to the bottom end of neutral. we think when we actually look at the data and are more circumspect on the dollar, the economy still looks pretty strong relative to the rest of the world. we also don't rule out that we are going to get more structural stimulus next year. u.s. exceptionalism make you going. francine: i think it was deutsche bank that said powells remarks were misunderstood by the markets. vasileios: there is always a risewe could see a sharp in inflation. all of the things that have been thrown at the market, fiscal you are, everywhere,
5:17 am
still seeing that they must be somewhere along the road a structural change between the economic variables, between wage growth and the passing through .o actual inflation there is a risk that could disrupt markets because if we see an acceleration and deflation, the fed is going to push back quite dramatically, rising rates quite fastly. again,. it is a risk it is by no means a central scenario. tom: very quickly as we look to next year with all the distractions again, we are enjoying a single digit stock market. did we finally model and the permanence of a single digit trend or can maybe more optimistic? gene: i would probably not be more optimistic. you can always come up with a scenario. i think we're still in an environment where monetary
5:18 am
conditions are tightening and volatility is generally going up. we have just gone through the most volatile quarter of earnings growth in the last 10 years or last nine years. i think that is a trend and is a constraint. tom: very good. vasileios with us. we have seen the crisis in argentina and it always speaks to opportunity. it is extraordinary, the argentinian story on economics from huge prosperity before world war i to a muddling along an outright collapse we have seen. is it the mother of all team opportunities? vasileios: it could be. i think for me, the biggest opportunity lies in brazil. conditional on all of these reforms being passed through. i think it is a bit too early
5:19 am
given where inflation is and where interest rates are. i would stay in the sidelines for now waiting to see what comes out in terms of reforms and economic development. i think brazil on a risk reward profile is a bit more attractive. francine: thank you both. us. stay with coming up, u.k.'s secretary of state for international trade. he gave a speech this morning. his comments were put out to the media and he was saying that they should back the theresa may -- to face a stable brexit. deutsche bank shares are down some on the back of more raids. this is bloomberg. ♪

there it is and we will see that moment. not my way orof the highway. there is a sense of bilateral. could that be the surprise of the next does years that we drift back to multilateral discussions? julia: that would be a surprise. it is not the mood we are in now. nafta negotiation is an example of we did not do a lot. if anything, there has been some rolling back. it was hardly transformational. are we likely to go back and embrace globalization? probably not. nowhere is that the popular thing, not among democrats or republicans. we are still going to have some degree of trade conflict, even if we get through this chinese
