affiant. many of the student leaders came here to the legislative council konging in central hong and have been rallying most of this morning. several hundred -- probably about 1000. as you can see, you can see a moving heard of protesters on their way. they were congregated all right here for the better part of the morning. now they are on their way about 100 meters that way to the residents of the chief executive, carrie lam -- the office of carrie lam. that is one of their chief demands still, and that is carrie lam needs to resign. among their big demands still, after, of course, nearly 2 million hong kong people turned out in the streets all day yesterday. we were right there in the middle of it. they want carrie lam to step down. they want the extradition to be, not toll,
4:06 am
suspended, they want it withdrawn. francine: how did this -- how will this play out at the g20? yeah, well it is going to be brought up. we heard from the secretary of state, mike pompeo, saying they are watching what is happening very closely. he said that donald trump been a long champion of human rights. he is watching the situation, as well. the special relationship that hong kong does have -- the special privileges hong kong gets including that u.s. dollar peg to the hong kong dollar. they are watching it and they said they will bring up hong kong if he has a meeting with xi jinping which is up in the air for the summit later this month. francine: thank you so much. stephen engle there. we'll have much more throughout the day. the trade war -- global supply

4:08 am
the protests may be very important on the direction. -- orl basically ensure does it embolden china that they have to be more powerful and ensuing hong kong? there is potential when you get these movements and it is very binary. you can move very strongly in one direction. eventually you will not see it coming but this is one of those things that can be catalysts for a directional move. francine: i guess everything is interlinked. this protest, it is it likely the china will be tougher on the u.s. >> i cannot see how it is going to matter too much. anything that creates a headwind for the economy. the more headwinds you have, the more you have to get the solution. --the protests have to have protests have more of an impact, if the protests turn more
4:09 am
violent, that is we get economic impacts. right now, it has been relatively peaceful. resign,et ms. lam to pulling that back, that might be the end to it. i don't think this is the catalyst for a trade deal between the united states and china. we spoke to wilbur ross and he said he is confident we will get a deal, just not a g20. patrick: we will get a deal it --ther or not it is that g20 shop is very much influenced by the stock market in the general economy. we are starting to see a little bit of a weakness in the economy . we are starting to see some weakness in the stock market. those two forces drive trump than they do china. can think about the

4:14 am
secondly i think the fed doesn't want to look like they are reacting to the market. they want to -- they don't want to look like they are reacting to the tweet storms from president trump. the farther the decision can come from december, look at the fed is the best decision was a mistake. i do think alike goldman sachs saying they don't believe there is going to be any cuts this year, we would probably think there would be some cuts because the yield curve, if not inverted from a to 10 perspective, it is more the three-month t-bill. more consumer loans are extended. about the am more it june statements because right now if you look at june, people don't expect the cuts but everyone ensure the cuts are coming in july. francine: is it too much? patrick: they want to give themselves some optionality. it will be too much.
4:15 am
right now -- you get trump coming out and saying obstructed view. -- deal. all of a sudden confidence may go up. the fed may not want to be cutting into that. they have no optionality if they keep their statements the same. they are going to want to give themselves some optionality in the markets are not priced for that optionality. neal: gilly thing i wanted to respond to patrick -- i don't reactive.p, he is i do think he has a timing issue. the election is so far off. for him, the optimal time to cut a trade deal would be closer to the election. he is spending the downturn, the market, kind of premium to do that, but a later trade deal. he wants to -- he has to have a trade deal if you want to get reelected. patients, their
4:16 am
attention span is really quite short. francine: that is debatable. is this about trade? has got to play two opposing forces at his base release response -- opposing forces. his base really response to trade. i think you've got to start thinking about recession. that is a big amount of tariffs. yet higher costs for the u.s. consumer -- you have higher costs for the u.s. consumer. a status quo may be the best scenario. an escalation that he says is coming if we don't get a deal. you look the fed, do they look at the inverted -- francine: when
4:17 am
you look at the fed, do they look at that inverted yield curve? patrick: the fed is going to be very couple where we are. unemployment is 3.6%. five-year five-year forward on inflation -- everything is exactly where you want them to be. if the cut happens, it is for insurance. things are slowing in manufacturing but the backward looking measures, they will look good. neal: on the u.s., there's a dichotomy of the economy. 75% of the jobs in the united states are in small to medium-sized distances. -- medium-sized businesses. it is not immune from the trade tariffs but it is more insulated. if you look at the small bank segment, you will see a big contrast between the monte center banks -- the money center

4:23 am
thank you both. patrick, how do we view deutsche bank? what is the likelihood? patrick: a lot of the banks that are trading below half the book value, you have to do something to give the market confidence that your balance sheets, you can remain solvent. -- it may not be in the interest of shareholders. deutsche bank is trading at .2 book value so it is pricing in a big discount. a 90% discount to attract hedge fund. it might make a reliable good bank. i'm not sure the national bank of germany will want to be known as a takeover candidate. that is what you set up with a bad bank. francine: with an m&a speculation, at the end of the
4:24 am
day, does deutsche bank need to merge? neal: at a note that it needs to merge -- i don't know that it needs to merge. maybe merging with ing or unicredit, you have a lot of headwinds to do mergers. you have unions, cross-border out of issues, you don't have one regulator. just to contrast it from the u.s. perspective, we have 200 to 250 mergers of banks per year since the crisis. francine: they were cleared straightaway, right? fixed in three or four years from 2008 onwards. neal: that's correct but you're getting the regulator passing rules. it encourages the smallest banks to consolidate for cyber security concerns, to profitability concerns. they are allowing capital

structure where they can be used as currency to take over. here it is a much more cattle of fish. each individual country has a concern. germany is worried about deutsche bank. now they have these crosswinds. francine: you don't have a banking union here. patrick: for years we have been asking that every years we have been saying that is around the corner. i don't know how do we get there right now. it is always in the midst of a crisis where those things become the focal point. we have to wait for that to get some real momentum. inncine: are you invested european financials? neal: in april we started selling them. ing,rench bank, bnp, trading about 90% of book value so the market doesn't completely give up on them. if you do have a slowing economy, you don't want to be in the banks. if you do have a recovery in the
4:26 am
ozone, banks become more attractive. francine: the european banks when it comes to investment banks in this region. neal: the strength of those franchises would suggest that is the direction of travel. jpmorgan and other international franchises have done well. their profitability is quite exceptional, even with a young curve that is essentially inverted -- yield curve that is essentially inverted. that is the projection. francine: neal, thank you. we will be back with hasek armstrong. -- patrick armstrong. this is bloomberg. ♪

4:47 am

francine: what does this all mean for inflation? the inflation we look at isn't necessarily the one that has been influenced by the oil price. on five-year five-year forward inflation, it is shocking. oil prices to create a mindset when all prices get lower, expectations get lower. that is something fed and markets have to take account for. if we see oil prices, it is not going to have a significant impact. francine: does it make oil makers attractive? pietro: that is what we are playing it for, and height dividend deal -- a high dividend deal. francine: patrick, thank you so much. bloomberg surveillance continues in the next hour.

they stayed back. they took a lot of heat. one of the big reasons carrie lam backed down was because of the violence that happened on wednesday. rubber bullets, tear gas and the like and they really took a hammering in public opinion. tom: did the police hold back because of carrie lam or the hong kong leadership? or because of signaling from beijing? is the bigat question because how much of this is coming from beijing. beijing has officially said we support carrie lam. they are saying they support the actions to table this or suspend this bill. let's face it, carrie lam does take direction from beijing. however, she says this extradition bill and the withdrawal was not at the orders of beijing.

5:35 am
are the running -- are they running for a certain vision into government? at this point, it is fair to say that they are, some more explicitly than others. we heard various members say, whatever happens, we all need to support the eventual leader. the question is, i think that is what will happen right after the tories have chosen their new leader. you will see a sort of catharsis coalesce. but how long that will last, i think we could see that consensus breakdown by october 31, when the real choices have to be made. tom: let's go to antonio garcia pasqual and make what we can out of economic growth right now. what is the economic growth of kingdom?d we saw some ugly numbers a few weeks ago can we sustain 2% gdp in the united kingdom?

antonio: the demands to come in the second half of the year, definitely not. the question is whether the gdp can sustain 1% growth towards the end of the year. weakness beyond the trade sector. you see weakness in investment and investment sentiment, and it doesn't bode well. suggestioneasonable is something that would be close to under 1%. but not 2%. izzy -- i do the think that the outlook for the economy is further weakness for the near term. we are seeing weakness in terms of business investment because of brexit. the one thing where i've been kind of underestimating has been the resilience of the u.k. consumers, rather like the u.s. consumer.

5:46 am
and the overall yield is down. and you have italy actually funded at 10 years, at 2.2%, 2.3%. the average cost of all of the debt is 3%. the margin is still below the average, making the debt more sustainable paradoxically. i think that is the key. that is what is holding everything together. everywhere else you look, the fiscal consolidation, the politics, there are risks everywhere. the question is where there are not risks for italy. funding isthe naturally going to spike. that is the key. tom: into the summer and into 2020, we need a crisis to make things change. do we kick the can down the road in germany, or do we have a crisis embedded in what we are doing now, where we can actually
5:47 am
get something done? europe: it is true that has made progress after the crisis. a lot depends on what happens in the u.s. remember the whole tariffs story. europe is a bit on the sidelines. if you tell me that car tariffs , that is very severe, as we discussed before. europe is going to be hit by around 50 basis points less growth in the baseline because of the china-u.s. if you overlay tariffs, you actually engineer that kind of recession, including germany, that may push europeans. next ecbnds on who the leader will be and how much cassidy they will have -- how

6:16 am
they say shut up and read it. why do we need to read "not working"? trying to reality i'm explain is the world changed in 2008. the wage curve got it wrong. everything fundamentally changed and policymakers got it wrong. i try to explain why wage growth is low and why policymakers have made things worse. the importance of decent jobs, good jobs, stable jobs. tom: something horrible happened. is it about the full-time conundrum, the shift from benefits we have seen in the world? what is this something horrible that happened? david: the world shifted into thousand eight. workers got scared. workers were scared senseless. "saferf the phrase
6:17 am
houses." your house was not safe, perhaps your pension was not safe. people have not restored their standards of living compared to the past. pay packages are 6% below where they were in 2008. ofhave never seen a period so-called recovery like that. policymakers say all is well. the fed raises rates and the people say we are hurting and don't feel that. we vote for populism around the world. the politics in the economics come together. good jobs are not really delivering, especially for those with less education. it tries to explain that. francine: how would you fix it? arguedthe big story i've is central banks should allow the economy to go to full employment. therefore it was a huge mistake on the part of the fed. i said over the last three years endlessly that was a mistake.
6:18 am
let's put the pedal to the metal. it's about subsidizing work. the story about ai and technology, you can fix that in many senses by making the price of labor lower. lowering the price of labor. giving subsidies for work, encouraging those at the line, but run the economy hot. why did you raise rates when we were a long way from full employment? the full talks about people who are underemployed. their pay is less than they would like and they would like more hours, even at the going wage rate. it's a complete misunderstanding that policy makers on how the labor market works. francine: who is getting it right? is there a government that has a good mix of policies to address this? david: not really. the place we have seen the best has been in germany. 3.5% on employment rate. if you compare that to how well they did prior to the great recession, they have done a lot better but they have issues of their own.
6:19 am
germany is probably looking the best. tom: the democratic candidates, 25 candidates. they will all go up to hanover, new hampshire to talk to lord the cure forfor our unhappiness in the labor economy. what is your prescription for the senator from massachusetts? for the senator from vermont? what is your prescription for the vice president from delaware? david: the most important thing is work. we should try to encourage people to work, giving them incentives to work. the evidence in the book is unemployment and joblessness makes people unhappy. my assumption is if you do everything you can to try to deliver good jobs, they will vote for you. this seems like a vote winner. tom: is this socialist theory? david: it's about how markets work. the one thing we know about behavioral economics is the cabinet job make you happy. having a decent job that is stable and secure make you happy. the logic seems to me is go to the labor market.
6:20 am
think about delivering decent jobs and presumably the votes will follow. come up with a plan to improve the performance of the labor market. i have listened to the debates in the u.k. by six candidates. not a single one has talked about anything like that. francine: that is a distraction, isn't it? if you were to look at the candidates they want to be prime minister, who has the best policy? david: very hard to say. they are in the land of fantasy politics. none of them were talking about the economy. none are talking about how you put britain back to work. the crucial issue in the u.k. israel wages is 6% below what they were 11 years ago. what are you going to do about that? the prime minister has been trying to think about a boost to the economy and people are stopping it. francine: thank you so much, david blanchflower from dartmouth. a great new book. anti-podium as tory

buttigieg is one of those people who has clearly figured out how to get the zeitgeist. tom: don't we see that from president trump as well? everyone, including the president was done he won but, this was a different trump this time around. martin: he's just doubling down on the strategy that worked for him in 2016. he has outspent all the democratic rivals on facebook already. he has a war chest that overwhelms of the democratic candidates. he will use his social prowess and the force of his personality to breakthrough. david: it doesn't look like he is doing that well at the moment in the polls. martin: a year before the 2016 election you could have taken those poles and said there was no way he could win and he did. francine: if you look at the
6:33 am
polls, to the american citizens what donald trump at war with china or signing a trade deal? what makes it more popular with his base and others? martin: you can clearly overstate the applications of actual policy versus the personality. aree look at it now there 20 democratic candidates and one president. when it comes down to the election it will just be donald trump against an unknown democrat. that is the real number that counts. this speculation a year ahead of the election or more than 17 months is purely that, speculation. this unknownt can democrat do to get votes? does he or she need to be anti-trump? does it need to be policy? economic policy, trade policy? martin: that is the internal debate.
6:34 am
whoever the democrat is goes head-on and confronts donald trump or actually advocates policy? book,avid blanchflower's "not working." the movie rights have been sold. it will be called "voodoo economics." you are to the left of socialism and these are job ideas not palatable in america. we still have this individualist thing going on in our labor though we are fully employed. in thisthere are people country who are doing extraordinarily well in whatever jobs they have. there is this vast number of people living paycheck-to-paycheck who do not feel that. tom: how do we not jeopardize those doing well and lift up the paycheck-to-paycheck? david: maybe the winners have not compensated the losers enough.
6:35 am
the crucial thing in the end will be the state of the economy. if the economy turns, all the stories we have told will be thrown away. it will be the economy again and it will turn and then we are really going to decide. martin: then you blame jay powell. tom: are you in a mood to blame jay powell? david: i have taken the few the fed was mistaken and should not have raised rates. right, you should cut. right now. tom: in june you would do it? david: get right out front. tom: the ramifications to the market? david: the fed says we understand what is going on and if we need to act, we will. they recognize they made a mistake in the past. if it was me, i would get ahead of the game. tom: david blanchflower and marty schenker, thank you so

6:41 am
forward to harness technology to lead to a better employed america. david: the discussion gets mixed up somehow because technology has been hugely job enhancing. think of all the people that work at apple stores. it creates lots of good jobs. the question is why are they not creating enough of them? the price of labor is so high. firms decide to go to technology. tom: you have thrown chalk in your dartmouth lectures. multifactor productivity. it's a mystery what is in there right now. estimating productivity? david: i don't think it actually is. we have got lots of poor jobs. people who feel insecure. they don't feel motivated. that weakness and instability has had a productivity effect.
6:42 am
a bad productivity effect. francine: what is the consequences? what we thought was a hiccup in productivity is something much deeper and more structural. david: it is not clear you need to change the -- they talk about maximizing employment. if you look back, they tried to focus on unemployment which i argues the wrong indicator. how good a job are they doing? the employment rate in the u.s. is 2.5 percentage points below what it was in 2008. take the mandate and focus on it and get to understand there is not any inflation. raising rates on nonexistent inflation has not come. go emphasize the part of the mandate you were actually given. maximizing employment does not mean saying you are at full employment when you are to .5% below where you were a decade ago. they just got hung up in nonexistent inflation.

6:46 am
kindlitical risks, is it of range bound in terms of price? obviously the tanker attacks we have seen in the last , this is obviously raising risks. there was no doubt about that. so far the market has reacted in terms of the price in a very limited way because there has not been a significant supply interruption so far. essentially the markets have taken the view there is plenty of supply out there from other countries available. we are seeing expanding production for the united states. stocks are fairly healthy. it has been clear from the political messaging put out that an interruption of significant interruption of supplies through the straight of hormuz is not something that would be accepted. tom: there is a fancy cross. you do this on a monday and you get sophisticated on supply and
6:47 am
demand dynamics. it's always been assumed it is a tight relationship and not much wiggle room. i sense that ebbing away right now. the market is not as tight as it has been for the last couple of years. 2018 inat we saw in anticipation of sanctions on iran was huge increase in production from saudi arabia, iraq, russia. we saw a big buildup in stocks. in the first part of this year, we saw another big buildup in stocks. there is plenty of stock in reserve. production capacity is idle because of the opec production cuts. the market is not perceived as being tight. on fundamentals the market is expecting to get tighter through the second and third quarters. tom: within that is who controls the price. the belief still is there is a

cartel economics that controls the price. he is the cartel dad? -- dead? neil: it is not dead. if you have decided as an organization and invited other like-minded countries to join you to withdraw 1.2 million barrels a day from the market, that is a decisive action which affects the direction of the price. you have that power. we will have to wait and see when the countries meet again if they decide to continue to exercise that power. francine: as the trade war drags on what kind of impact does it have an oil demand? the report we published we cut our expectations for oil demand growth for the second month in a row. we had been fairly consistent for several months but now we have gone down to 1.2 million barrels a day. a large part of that is due to what we can see before our very
6:49 am
eyes and the tray growth is slowing. we saw a downgrade in gdp growth from another institution the other week, the oecd. are fairly bearish for the time being. we are seeing real oil demand numbers for the early part of 2019 confirm there is lower growth then we had first thought. francine: but if there was a trade deal to be signed at the g20 or shortly afterwards, does the market automatically rebalance itself quickly? neil: if that were to happen, that would remove one of the current huge uncertainties. it is that uncertainty, the fact that for one week we seem to be getting a positive outlook to talks in next week it is less effective. that would do a great deal to restore confidence in the
