words fail but we understand there will be an investigation. airbus and boeing dispute leading to more tariffs. the u.s. published a list of more than 4 billion eu goods, including meat, cheese, cherries, olives. the eu has a similar case against boeing. the latest punitive measures will add to strained ties between washington and brussels. what does it mean for the markets? jackie.nd us.k you both for joining we had optimism about the trade truce between the u.s. and china. the next day we focus on europe

and the markets do not know what to do. trevor: that is a good setting up. we are always nervous when president trump starts tweeting about all-time highs. it is almost like he uses that as an opportunity for something that would push stock prices down. startede g20, tweets coming out. he surprise people by being conciliatory with china. we are starting to see messages again. political risk at the moment affecting stock markets. francine: how should we deal with the political risk? jackie: the global economy seems to be balancing on a knife edge, precipitated by u.s., and any question a more tariffs coming into play increases the risk of recession or the risk of recession around the corner. that is impacting market nervousness. francine: is there a modus

operandi of president trump? he goes to the brink. even with china, expert saying yesterday, what we could try to understand is that this is not a superior, state or country in the next 10 years. this is more immediate. operandirump's modus is to manufacture many crises and then solve them by backing away. crisis, he solved it, crisis, he solved it. the massive tax cut helping corporations and billionaires, he has renamed that, that is the legislation. francine: if you trust that, and it means he would always solve the crisis, so we shouldn't worry about eu tariffs, or should we? tariffs havehina

not stuck as far as he was threatening at some point. real things are happening which are adding sand to the world economy. trade tensions and the many trade war, negative for the world economy. you have to set it against the fact that you have lower inflation than people were expecting at this stage in cycle. china having stimulus. that does not feel like we are close to the next recession, as it felt like last year. francine: what do eu tariffs mean for europe? these are not carmaker tariffs. this is cherries and meat. it will increase prices for consumers. the bigger economic repercussion is more protectionism generally as retaliation or reciprocal tariffs come into play.

economyct on the global is physical. trump has been vocal in his bashing, persuading interest rates to go lower. i'm not convinced that will happen to the extent that the market is expecting. that would be a risk for global stock markets. if they say, don't cut. are expectations to entrenched? we are expecting a cut this month. i think it is important that the fed wants to maintain expectations, keep the door open to further cuts. what seems to be happening go is -- to be happening, is that they are rethinking the inflation target. growth is slowing. global pmi's were quite low this morning. it is a rethinking about whether the fed should have an inflation

target or average inflation target and as it changes in structure of the way they are addressing inflation, which says to me the rate cut, whatever happens to growth. francine: thank you both, jackie and trevor. staying with us. up next, live in hong kong after protesters smashed their way in. we speakext and later, to the vice-chairman. we talk all things coffee, italy and trade in 30 minutes. this is bloomberg. ♪

people trust the government, trust the institution and whether the government will resolve some of the issues, the demands of protesters. francine: thank you to our bureau chief in hong kong. china will scrap ownership earlier than planned, according to the premier league, the latest up by policymakers to open up the $44 trillion financial industry to competition. this comes after the u.s.-china trade agreement. it remains on course despite broader political tensions. i'm notnd jackie, exactly sure how we should do reforms in china and how we should view debt, cracking down on capital outflows? trevor: but i'm focusing on is

the degree to which china is easing policy to offset the slowdown. as a global investor, it is critical to work out whether the economy will it celebrate or not -- accelerate or not. you have heard about micro easing here and there, in terms of the ratio cuts another stimulus but we are not seeing a big easing a policy. there is irony. the more difficult the trade talks are, the more likely it is china will use policy more forcefully monetary side to offset potential damage. the fact that we are seeing piecemeal easing and the trade friendly, may delay potential recovery in chinese economy. if they: overall, stimulate internally, what does it mean for the rest of the satellite, em countries?

do they suffer or benefit because supply chains moved to them even if pboc is inward looking? trevor: they benefit from a stronger chinese economy. when they were in city building phase, there was a more direct exporting. now we are seeing more targeted stimulus. australia specifically and cutting interest rates. it is a different kind of stimulus. money aggregate in different pieces, there is easing on the way. it was massive. chinese slowdown, 2015, led us to think the world economy was going into recession then. 2018 was again causing recession fears. china is pivotal for the world economy, even if it is not building cities. francine: is china the number one financial risk? market,in terms of the it feels like it is a one-way

transfer of intellectual property and the announcement about access to the financial system -- it feels like a gesture in the right direction. i would still question whether we have a real intention of access for western businesses to go to china. francine: do you think the intention is to open? consumption is picking up. trevor: intention to open up in a limited way. the world is watching hong kong closely. hong kong was set up as a one country, two systems framework. protesters are worried it will be two countries, one system. the way that is done will affect the likelihood of hong kong-china generally becoming the financial sector generally. francine: thank you both, staying with us, jackie and

because -- the finest of the yield curve due to structural factors, we have structurally low inflation because of globalization, we are globally competing on the labor market and the technology where consumers are able to compare prices which keeps inflation low and central banks can keep interest rates low as well. overd with the rate hikes the last few years was a normalization of policy and not fighting inflation. that is done and we will cycle slowly and we can have one or two cuts because we do not need more. francine: do you agree? >> short-term, yes, long-term, inflation will be back. years, each 10 decade will add one billion people on planet earth, it took

because, how can you have inflation when in europe if you youin 100 euro, ecb gives 99.6? to understand how that can accelerate inflation, 70% of eu banking assets are in smaller bank,and the de facto smaller banks need positive to threerate, zero years. growth and ifg you consider the unemployment rate in europe, it is close to the all-time low, 7%. last time when unemployment was at this level rates in europe were 2.5% and as a result it makes no sense to keep cutting rates from negative territory because you cannot spur growth out of nominal rates.

i think in some businesses, they have been losing money for many years and they are better off shutting down and biting the bullet. if they were to do that, the long-term profitability will go up. deutsche bank today is an 200emely safe institution, 50 billion of unencumbered cash, high equity, has passed the fed stress cast -- test. it cannot make money because of too much cost and it must go through a serious cost-cutting. if you are not healthy is to go on a harsh diet. they have no choice. francine: cost-cutting to raise capital? that is a key question for the stock and the fact that deutsche bank has passed the

stress test in the u.s., they do not need to raise capital and the issue would be for the ecb. you can probably go through a temporary redaction in the capital level if you are capping lots of costs, as long as the profitability trajectory comes back higher than yesterday because the level of cash and capital on the balance sheet are an all-time low. francine: i have a story saying what the ecb did not say about monte paschi's bailout. did they handle it correctly? davide: i think they did because time -- the italian economy dropped 10 points in gdp. as a result, if you have a one in 175 year shock, your playbook is to build stability in the system. what is the total cost of the

bailout the banking system in italy? less than 0.5% of gdp. in the u.k., it was equivalent to more than 20% and the u.s. was more than 10%. has the ecb done a good job? the cost of the banking system for a one in 200 year shock is only .5% of gdp. well some redtape be bypassed? yes. do i support draghi? 100%. breaking news out of the ecb. rush for as see no july rate cut. his mandate is up and there is more and more speculation that a female leader such as christine

put in the plate the moment we are in, after your decades of work. how odd is this july? jim: it is extremely odd. when we have economic data weakening but we are not in the throes of a financial crisis, so what and the world is going on? are at -35 bunds basis points and spain is only trading about 30 positive basis points. worldow do you link your into the equity world? how do you link jim caron's world into the stock market? jim: i will think about interest rates and discounted cash flows, meaning any cash i get from an equity, the present value at a lower rate increases the present value. when i do that, it increases the

valuation of that stock, so low rates increase valuations for equities which is why equities are staying stable. tom: our repricing in a new terminal rate and actuarial assumptions? jim: i think that is the right question and the answer now is yes. look at where 30 year long bonds are in the u.s. and globally. when you have long-term rates, you will look at that interest rate and discount cash flows at that rate. that increases the present value. it is a valuation question. you can ask if equities are overvalued, but is it overvalued for this level of interest rates? many people say no, not really. note expected to be about 2% as maybe about ok. saying maybe are

it is about ok? fairit seems to be roughly , relative to where interest rates are. fed to cut another hundred basis points so where does the 10-year note go? 1.75 or get down to 1.5%. it makes valuations easier. i am not making a fair value call on equity markets. if i look at it from a rates --spective, as rates go down our view for recession risk is yearonly 25% in the next -- and rates are going down. rates are going down in the face of data that is slowing and not collapsing. you are typically looking at a recession in nine or 12 months and we are not seeing that. one of the reasons i think

riskier assets, not just equities but high-yield and investment-grade, these assets are increasing in value in lockstep. francine: what would it take for the 10 year treasury yield to be at 1.75? jim: it is a range. if we believe the market is correct and the fed funds rate is going to 1.5% some time next year, as long as there is a slope in the curve and inflation expectation, what the yield points, 25 to 50 basis 1.75% 10-year note what makes sense. just as long as it was a positive slope in the curve. tom: we are having a pro conversation and there is lots of dynamics and mathiness in that. retirees in every nation are getting absolutely crushed.

is this no more than the financial elite crushing the people? jim: i think this is a global systemic issue, and i believe we are in a bit of a liquidity trap , meaning we don't have any choice but to lower rates but lower rates do not help equity valuations. a lot of retirees do not necessarily own individual stocks so they might not be getting a boost from that. it makes it harder, the liabilities and the pension fund get harder to meet by municipalities and state and local governments. it is in many ways a devaluation of someone's retirement. when you lower that rate, it lowers their potential for income over time so that is a devaluation. francine: jim caron of morgan stanley investment antigen, stays with us -- management, stays with us.

we are talking about yields and the levels that you can see. what do you do with inflation? when does it pick up? jim: when growth picks up. the idea behind these insurance rate cuts by the fed is to stave off recession, and's's if that succeeds in one year time -- in time, -- we will need to see wages rise so the growth and the jobs market strengthening, and the other is oil prices. they have gone up but been stable and is not creating the inflation impulse we thought it might at this stage. until you see inflation moving ither toward the 2% target, will be tough. this is a global issue. inflation globally is coming down, even in many emerging

markets, which makes that asset class attractive. francine: oil has been pretty much stable. the last five recessions were either caused or accentuated by an oil shock. is this time different? jim: it is, because the decline in yields and what is going on in europe -- in oil is dislocated from an economic event. if you dropped me on mars and said, read this newspaper, tell me what is going on, what do you think will happen? i would say, there will be a recession. an economic slowdown is taking place and they are doing this to avert a recession. the data is slowing and pmi's have dipped into that recessionary territory, that other factors do not show a high probability, so therefore we are

getting lower rates during a time where the economy is not slowing as much as the rate markets would say it should be. tom: the german ten-year comes down near record lows. greater negative yields in germany just as jim caron speaks on "surveillance." leveraged loans, bias and others are looking away from full faith and credit to the ghosts of 2007. as 2007 now? give me a primer on leveraged loans. jim: the market has been interesting and it has been a popular loan. when rates are low and people are worried the rate might go up, this is a floating rate hike. people are being yield hogs they are going up and down in quality

♪ and the consequences of this trade amtek war and cold war -- trade and tech war and cold war is the beginning of the decoupling of the global economy. we will have to resume the

entire disquieting -- supply chain. that will lead to disruption and if this escalates, there will be a recession. tom: fired up on american and global economy, he appeared at a bitcoin event where he tore into bitcoin. james best chart now with caron of morgan stanley. it is the 10 years, but we went logarithmic. we have seen it before, a plunge in yields like this is not uncommon. what is different as we migrate down to 2.01%? jim: we are getting this in a coordinated fashion during a time when we are not getting the severe -- there is no obvious crisis. in 2008, there was an obvious catalyst to make this happen.

central banks are moving toward qe and maybe the ecb is doing the same thing. the rba just cut interest rates and the policy rate is 1%. the yields used to be very high and they have come straight down. we are seeing something symptomatic of a liquidity trap going through into the global market. tom: what does that inertial force due to financial stability and the short paper market? jim: it is difficult to get any yield. it makes short-term funding and financing cheap which could be dangerous. we are not seeing people lever up the way they use to, so if this was 2005, 2004, you would see more financial leverage in the market. what we are seeing instead is a grab for longer dated, high quality bonds.

that is one reason you are yields coming down and spain, u.s. treasury yields coming down. one of the most crowded positions we have this year as people's positions in cash and positions in high quality bonds. that is extremely different than last year. if we think about this last year , the market was more risk on and we know how that ended. this quarter, we have been risk off almost the entire year. you doe: overall, what with the negative yields on german bund banks -- german bund's? what happens in the next six months? jim: two things. wean asset manager, when look at our portfolios and think about negative yields in germany , i have to think about the currency exchange rate.

i will buy my -- i will buy , so essentially i and up picking up basis points. that yield is not -30 basis points, it is 2.7%. the 10 year in germany after i do the fx, i'm getting 2.7% in dollar terms, so you will get global flows into europe. as a european trapped in euros, that is where the savings and their return on savings is getting hurt, so their hope as it goes from -30 basis points two -50 two -100 to make a capital appreciation, or there is no reason to invest. francine: as the dollar overvalued? jim: think it is a little overvalued. i am slightly dollar negative.

with the onset of the fed potentially cutting rates over the next 12 months, the dollar will weaken. fall ands starting to we are lower than where we were at the beginning of the year. i think we could fall 3% to 5%. i think we will get a weaker dollar, which is good for global financial conditions. tom: this is just an intraday chart for the german ten-year, jim caron single-handedly driving it to a further negative yield. andge plunge down yesterday a new leg down yesterday to 0.364. economists away from your world talk about getting a greater amplitude more amount of negative rates to begin to affect incentives in the system. are we near that or are we still

on the fringes of the bravery of enormous negative rates? jim: the more negative we go, it has marginal effects so i do not believe that. where i am with this as we are saying you can put rates at -35 basis points, -50, -100 and germany and it will not make that big of a difference because you will not spur economic activity. tom: what you heard is the single most important comment today and reminds me of david folkers lindo of deutsche bank. this is an arch distinction types like jimal caron versus academic economists who think there is efficacy to negative interest rates. francine: it is interested does interesting to hear jim say --

interesting to hear jim say it is different if you are in dollar investor. jim caron stays with us. tomorrow, loretta mester joins us from london, 6:00 a.m. new york time. we will ask about dollar strength and treasuries. this is bloomberg. ♪
