it's a massive revamp of the fifth bank, recalling a of its workforce and scrapping dividends. jay powell in the line of fire. president trump keeps up the pressure to cut rates as the market prices out further rate cuts this year. erdogan flexes his muscles. did turkish president fires the head of the central bank -- the turkish president fires the head of the central bank. the lira falls, equity sells off. david: welcome to "bloomberg this monday, july 8. a little something going on in france. it was a great game. aix: their second win in row? david: that's right.
7:01 am
alix: even president trump took to twitter to congratulate the team, versus a couple days ago, when one of the women said we are not going to the white house, and he said why don't you win first. now apparently very proud. david: it was a great game. the u.s. was really taking it to the netherland for the first half, but they kept it up in the second half. alix: go team usa. in the markets, you have powell coming out in the next couple of days. drive up market reaction for this week. euro-dollar lower by 1/10 of 1%. the dollar getting a little bit of steam in the last 20 minutes of trading. crude also quiet. it is a quiet market with idiosyncratic events turkey, like deutsche bank. david: what a nice word to use. alix: right? david: idiosyncratic.
7:02 am
time now for the morning brief. today, british conservative party members mail in their votes for the next prime minister, widely expected to be boris johnson. on tuesday, the allen company conference gets underway in sudden valley. we also get chinese cpi and ppi numbers. wednesday, fed chairman jay powell begins two days of congressional testimony on fed policy and releases minutes from his most recent fomc meeting. alix: time now for bloomberg first take. we are joined by gina martin adams and marty schenker. our top story is deutsche bank and the restructuring there. a huge revamp, from cutting about 1/5 of its workforce, restructuring its business. is this enough to save the bank? gina: it's a good question. analysts are naturally going to be quite skeptical. this is years of attempted
7:03 am
changes at deutsche's. there was a failed merger earlier this year. the long term outlook is slower roe growth than the rest of the sector, even with changes. i think analysts are naturally skeptical. what are we going to get out of this? how far is it going to go? is searching for guilt, so cutting the dividend is also going to cut the outlook for this group that is still pretty depressed, so there's not a lot to be excited about. i think you have to see these changes implemented and see real results before analysts get on board. david: they had no choice. they had to do something pretty dramatic, it was clear. the question is, will they make more money doing this? they will save money, but will they make more money? think about it,
7:04 am
this is back to boring banking. it is taking deposits and providing customer service. that is where deutsche bank is going. is it highly profitable? no. is it safer then where they've been? for certain it is. but what kind of bank is it really going to be? just a to domestic consumer bank, basically. alix: to this point, all of the analysts are saying short-term, this is a good positive. david: there's a lot of regulators that said that is what you should get back to. alix: and now they have the job cuts to come with it. marty: we just published a story that people getting their severance notices and leaving the london headquarters in tears , so there's a human toll to this, too. alix: so where did they go? what area of the banking world can absorb either the market share, the clients, the people
7:05 am
who lost their jobs? gina: it is tough. yields are suppressed around the world. where is the growth? it is a huge question for the financial sector at large, but in financial terms it is clear there are stronger growth prospects in asia and the. u.s. than europe. you can't say it is -- and the u.s. than europe. you can't say it is extraordinarily strong, but at least there is growth. there's much stronger topline growth than in europe. that's one of the reasons why u.s. financials have outperformed over time. are you going to get superstrong job growth that absorbs all of this excess labor? it doesn't seem likely this late in the cycle. that's where the human toll is going to be relatively high, provided that deutsche's is successful at cutting as many jobs as they suggest. this is another question mark. how many jobs will they be able to cut, especially in germany? david: there's one job back in
7:06 am
the united states that appears to be on the line, and that is jay powell's as president of the -- as chairman of the fed. pres. trump: if we had a fed that would lower interest rates, we would be like a rocketship. but we are paying a lot of interest, and it's unnecessary. but we don't have a fed that knows what they are doing, so it is one of those little things. david: rumors continue that the president is really considering moving jay powell aside, something that has never been done. marty: no mind there is some question about the legality of doing that. the fed has made it clear through its spokesperson and jay powell himself that he intends to serve out his four years. i think that if donald trump were to try to do that, there would be a legal challenge to prevent him from doing it. david: it hasn't made him hesitate so far on immigration control, on issue after issue. he's got somebody lawsuits going, you can't even count them.
7:07 am
marty: and this might be one of them. what he's really done is create an environment where if the economy stays strong and the stock market is high, he can take credit for it. if it doesn't, he can blame jay powell. alix: does he have a point? you saw good jobs growth friday, but wages remain stuck. gina: i think it's a 50-50 right now. frankly, the s&p 500 is a rocketship. if you look at last week's gains, we are at all-time highs again. part of the reason for that is the premise or notion that we are going to have much easier monetary policy going forward, with the consistent stability of economic growth. frankly, i believe the fed is going to have to really balance for the july meeting pretty stable economic conditions in the later stages of an economic cycle. they would like to reserve some
7:08 am
firepower for a true deterioration in economic growth. then you have the president swooping in, trying to change their mind, which only incentivizes them to make sure they state their independence quite clearly. so it is a really questionable what is going to happen in the july meeting. tothe interim, you're going see earnings come in for s&p 500 companies in a pretty depressed state, which is going to increase the need for some sort of insurance cut in july. but it is a relatively tenuous relationship right now because the economic data is not horrible. frankly, rates are still very low relative to history. alix: let's talk about the third story, which is turkish president erdogan firing the central bank chief. you can see what happened here. lira knocked down. equities knocked down. -- actuallyly hire
7:09 am
higher. is this like president trump's dream? marty: it may be his dream, but this hold notion of air to gone -- of erdoganian theory that high interest rates because inflation and low interest rates keep inflation down is rather unique. i don't know that donald trump has that kind of economic footing for his comments about powell, but certainly erdogan is not letting anything stand in his way of getting what he wants. david: is this idiosyncratic, or does it read through to emerging markets more broadly? gina: i think it is more idiosyncratic. i think it is very specific to turkey. there doesn't seem to be this conflict between global leaders policymakers -- and monetary policy makers and the rest of the world.
7:10 am
but you do tend to see when one emerging-market struggles, you tend to see the feedback through emerging-market assets. i wouldn't be surprised to see emerging markets take a step back. broadly this is not a testament -- step back broadly. there's intensive correlations between the groups within emerging markets to dismiss it altogether. alix: and you get fired now if you disagree with that monetary policy. gina martin adams and marty schenker, thanks a lot. great to see you. you can find all the charts we just used and more if you go to gtv on your terminal. browse the features, check it out. coming up, more on deutsche bank's radical overhaul. this is bloomberg. ♪

7:14 am
turning into a bust. the value of deals there plunged 75% in the second quarter. the venture boom began in 2014, when alibaba went public in the largest ever ipo. that year, chinese venture deals tripled. that is your bloomberg business flash. alix: thank you so much. the banking bombshell. deutsche bank will undergo one of the most radical overhauls since the financial crisis in its latest turnaround plan. , andll cut 18,000 jobs quit its equity sales and trading business. >> we are taking the decision to retrench and step back from elements of our global markets franchise, and particular equity sales and trading. that is a significant step in rearranging the bank. alix: that is the cfo of deutsche bank speaking with bloomberg. joining us is david sowerby, anc ora managing director and sonja.io manager, and
7:15 am
is it going to be enough to grow revenue? guest: i think currently the, the question is not whether it is going to be enough. the current situation is that the measures are taking place from a position of a certain weakness in a backdrop of weakening economic activity and lower rate environment, so overall the circumstances probably will make it somewhat challenging. , the measures announced were needed to refocus businessesd focus on where deutsche bank does have strength. david: it is clear from the
7:16 am
announced changes that they are going to cut costs and save money that way. is it clear in your analysis that they will be able to hold the top line? you can't make more money unless you keep revenue in, despite the fact you keep cutting costs. it depends a little bit. obviously there are certain sections that will be exited, and presumably because they were less making, so it is not all about the revenues. it is also about profitability of the business. bank perceivese that they do have certain core strength in which they want to invest, but i think at this point it is too early to see how revenue growth materializes. we do have an economic environment which is not really conducive to strong revenue growth, so it would be more about market share gains in some
7:17 am
areas, and it remains to be seen how customer confidence is still there. alix: part of it is a sinner capital buffer -- is a thinner capital buffer. you think that is enough to make them not have to go back and raise capital in the market? ,onja: from our understanding there are multiple factors happening simultaneously. on one side, the business divestitures are supposed to make the bank less risky. it should rely less on variable thenue streams, and overall balance sheet will shrink taylor: -- will shrink. at the same time, it is our therstanding that restructuring unit in which the
7:18 am
essence -- the assets are stored will be winding down. at the moment, it does not appear that there is a significant deterioration in capital levels, but nonetheless, it is something which very much depends on the way it is going to be executed, which we will be watching. david: how much of this is deutsche bank, and how much is a broader issue with european banks? i have a chart here that shows the ratio. the blue line is average for european banks. the white line is deutsche bank, down under $.25 on the dollar. david s: it is a story of lower lows on a secular basis. what you bank the last five years has compounded -22% to investors. not to take it to the home turf, but this index is barometer the last five years. i am starting to nudge up bank
7:19 am
holdings, but it is domestic. it is jp morgan, citizens financial, and to get very territorial, allied financial used to be mostly autos, but they are moving into non-auto banking. they are growing their deposits. great loan portfolio, right type of growth on the digital business. i think you want to be upping your banks on the domestic side. alix: how do you do that when the 210 spread is still at 16 basis points? david s: i could forever not want to own the banks because of the basis on the yield curve, but if i look at the margin, the economy will get a little bit better on the lower interest rates. i think banks hopefully have still more sensibility when it comes to the regulatory environment. is the valuations on a spread basis are so compelling that it makes you want to nudge up your financial waiting. for the beleaguered value investor in the last five years, it is starting to become a much
7:20 am

7:22 am
david w: turkish president erdogan stunned markets over the weekend by firing the head of the central bank because he had not cut interest rates in accordance with government policy. we welcome now bloomberg's riad hamade. we've been hearing about his displeasure with interest rates. why now? why did he move now? reporter: i suspect he wanted to wait until after the election, which ultimately he lost, so there is a new mayor of istanbul
7:23 am
from the opposition. expeditionere is that the central bank would cut rates. the inflation rate has been coming down, so since the central bank stood its ground ,nd decided not to cut rates that seems to have really annoyed president erdogan, and he decided to make a move to put somebody in place that he believes will, as you mentioned earlier, told the line of government policy. david w: putting aside for a thent the independence of central bank, is it possible that president erdogan is right? i will put up chart that shows a spike in real rates. point in thea sense that real rates are at the highest in the world, and inflation has come down.
7:24 am
has beenous governor criticized for moving too late, so he had to increase interest rates more than possibly would have been necessary had he moved earlier. theink the governor took decision to wait a bit longer and get more evidence of inflation slowing, and to give the lira more opportunity to recover some of the losses it's had. the lira had been doing quite well so far this year. now you have president here making this move, which makes it really hard for the new governor when he will lower interest rates, as everyone had expected anyway, to argue he is doing that because of policy reasons rather than because he's giving into pressure from president erdogan. david w: thank you so much. that's our colleague riad hamade from dubai. thestors have been hit by turkish moves, but also by the
7:25 am
chance of a rate cut. with us still is david sowerby of ancora. how do you look at this? there is a place for emerging-market stocks, a ratio to u.s. i think emerging markets have the potential to outperform u.s. markets by 1% to 2%. you just have to stomach the volatility that comes along with it. on a valuation and growth basis, emerging markets deserve a place in our portfolios. i'm not so sure about developed markets outside the u.s.. alix: where in e.m.? david s: that i think is the tougher question. in the case of turkey, 14% -1.5% toment rate, gdp -2%.
7:26 am
it is simple to say asia, china, far east. that's the places where the growth rates are favorable. countries made start seeing a turnaround in fiscal policies that could be pockets of south america. alix: coming up, the market sees a smaller fed cut in july after friday's blowout jobs number. we are going to discuss expectations with prime bridge investment -- with pine bridge investment's chief economist. gain was 22 basis points, a lot of nothing. markets softer, but not a whole lot of movement. we are really waiting for fed chair jay powell to testify before the house and senate this week. this is bloomberg. we're the slowskys.

7:33 am
fed chair jay powell has a big week in front of him, with two days of testimony on monetary policy before congress. one of those watching is surely going to be president trump, who's had a fair amount to say about him lately. michael mckee is here to take us through it. michael: wednesday the chairman sits down before the house and financial services committee -- before the house financial services committee. for the last year, the president has been attacking the fed chair on twitter very often for raising interest rates, even though the rest of the fed is raising rates along with jay powell. a lot of people think this is because president wants a straw man to attack if the economy doesn't look good on election day. on december 24, 2018, donald trump tweeted, "the only problem our economy has is the fed.
7:34 am
they don't have a feel for the market. they don't understand necessary trade wars were strong dollars or even democrat shutdowns for more borders." here's a chart that shows what's been happening with the economy if you talk to ceos. they stopped investing because of trade wars and uncertainty. you can see how ceo confidence and they since investment in blue have tracked each other very well. as companies got more worried about what would happen, they stopped spending. broughtthe one where he in the europeans on june 19. are you draghi just announced more stimulus could cut, which immediately dropped the euro against the dollar, "making it unfairly easier for them to compete against the usa. they've been getting away with this for years, along with china and others." both the you want and the euro have -- both the yuan and the euro have gone up and gone down
7:35 am
since trump took office. right now, both are a little stronger than the dollar, but the dollar has moved down a little bit now that we are talking about the possibility of a fed rate cut, perhaps as early as late this month. we will look at with the president has repeated over and over again. we had a fed that would lower interest rates, we would be like a rocket ship. we don't have a fed that knows what they are doing." he frequently argues that it's rates weren't high, the economy would be much stronger. economists disagree. but you can also see that even as the fed raises rates, gdp was rising. we had a couple of bad quarters, but in the first quarter we went back up to over 3%. so the president's tweets don't always track what is happening in the real economy, and for jay powell, what we will probably here again is the same line as conference.
7:36 am
"i have four years, and i intend to serve them." alix: the open question now, where does the president have a point? if you look at wages spike the strong print, wage gain two tense ofmissed 1%. with us -- 2/10 of 1%. sowerby,till is david and joining us is markus schomer , pinebridge investment chief economist. markus: all of this talk about the president trying to influence the fed misses the point. government has always tried to do that. i came into the market in the 1990's in germany, would it was almost foreign to smirk at government officials who tried to do something for policy. look at what happens in turkey,
7:37 am
for example. we only difference now is have twitter, so we are paying more attention to every word. but what trump is doing is no different than what any other country around the world is trying to do. david s: let's start there. the issue is whether or not we need an insurance cut or not. the market cure -- the market clearly feel so. mid-1990's, where we need significant amounts of rate hikes or rate cuts. we are close to a very stable equilibrium in terms of economic growth. one cut, maybe another next year, is what we think to avoid a serious slowdown. david w: let's talk about how much latitude jay powell in the fed have at this point. they say they are data dependent. at the same time, the market is really pricing and a cat. it has come up a bit since friday because the jobs are so they really have
7:38 am
much of an alternative? central banks around the world are going the other way. are they going to have to cut in july? --david s: as an investor, i one flow inflation. i think that is the fed's number one mission. they are a little less than 2%. that makes it a very good backdrop to be a stock investor, and that is the story. please let the fed do its job of independence. take care of the tariff uncertainty. that has the potential to erode parts of the tax cut. alix: when you take a look at with the market is pricing in or not, are we going to look at a way of easier financial
7:39 am
conditions. and how we are rated for that, or not? david s: --markus: i think we are looking at easier financial conditions. only sweden and norway and some , buts raise rates to early everything else has changed now. i think the strength abroad, with the bank of canada ready to .ut rates david s: if we cut rates again, we will effectively be back to 0% real fed funds. i don't know if that is necessary in this economy, where the real cost of capital is still very low for businesses to be borrowers, to spend. confidence in need uncertainty removed. alix: and if it is priced in,
7:40 am
what is going to be the catalyst? andrew sheets of morgan stanley is now saying that global letter -- that global allocation is the highest in five years. >> we looked at the g20 and did not think that changed global gloves -- changed global growth outlooks. if i look at how much morgan stanley is actually expecting equity markets to make over the next 12 months, it is one of the lowest levels of the last five years, so it seems more logical, more reasonable for us to lower our equity weight to the lowest of the last five years, and that's what we did over the weekend. alix: part of that is if you have the central bank cutting already priced in, what is the catalyst? david s: how much more can the fed cut? alix: so is there a catalyst? what stocks do you own in that moment. david s: i think small caps look
7:41 am
very valuable. that is usually a good backdrop months.next 12 we talked about upping the financial weight on the margin. i think that is the place to be. if you can find stocks growing their dividend who have 14 times earnings, you will be well placed within the market for the next year and a half. banks have been so active in the economy. they actually are depending on them. problem with is a the conventional my lessee that .- with the conventional policy you are absolutely right.
7:42 am
there is a dangerous conflation of interest between central banks and governance happening everywhere around the world, and we should be a little worried about that. david s: the whole notion of modern monetary theory, if i thing about risks that keep me up for the equity markets at night, that is probably number one. the returns should be linked to taxes. alix: thank you both very much. some breaking news on thyssenkrupp. planningny will now be to start formal talks to sell its stake in its elevator unit in the fall. it is a $16.8 billion unit. they were approached by a number of potential bidders. the question is how much can a

8:05 am
we had severe tightening of financial conditions and 95, in 98 -- in 1995 and 1998. i don't think that argument holds much water at all, nor do i think the low inflation actually caused by endogenous factors to the u.s. economy. in other words, easing when not generate inflation either. to me i think there's a much higher probability that we don't actually get one in july that the market's giving them credit for right now, even with the 10 basis points moving to curb. but payrolls by itself is not sufficient to take it off the table. coreect very strong consumption in the gdp report at the end of the month. we need a decent cpi print, improvement in the regional fed supplies, so by the time we get we may have moved a lot

of the pricing away. there are some indicators that would say things are softening -- david: there are some indicators that would say some things are softening. what is the pricing power given where the market is and what central banks are like around the world? >> a couple of points you made. the first one is with respect to weakness in the u.s. manufacturing sector, i don't believe that has anything to do with global manufacturing this. that is all about a weakening of trade which is secular in nature, but also impaired by the trump trade war. but weakness in the u.s. came about because consumption was expected to be quite strong through the holiday season. retail sales plunged to their most negative levels since that court hearing started in 1993. now it is rebounding sharply, so
8:07 am
you had unwanted inventories and a d stocking process that is almost complete. even in the jobs report this weekend, manufacturing jobs went up. trade and transportation jobs went up. the and central-bank pieces are tricky ones. and boj are really actively using currency to try to spur exports. that is probably the most complex argument. it is also the toughest thing for chair powell to explain. politically unpalatable. alix: for him. maybe not for president trump. the other thing we learned from the jobs report is wages were at a stagnant 3.1% year-over-year. why are we seeing stagnant races? of hiring about 50%
8:08 am
managers with open roles, about 150 5 million job openings then there are qualified candidates to fill it. that skills gap is driving uncertainty within the wages, so we are seeing the 3%, but over the last 40 years, that's really only been keeping up with the consumer index and not really giving employees anything incremental. one of the things we are telling candidates and employers is to think a little more creatively and go outside of the normal resume and normal market of where you look for talent, and go into other industries that have oversupply. david: normally if you have more jobs than people who fill them, that drives wages up. why are we in -- why are we not seeing the wage inflation we would expect? there are some that they would have to go a lot, and others not so much. it ising we are seeing is not holistic over every county.
8:09 am
that's where we have a lot of employees in oversupply and not a lot of demand. there's been a slowness to move into the industries that better align in order to see the wage inflection happen. these retail workers, what they should really be doing is looking at their underlying skills and be able to find jobs manufacturing, electronics. anything really related to stem sciences, engineering and technology is growing. there's really a mismatch today between gaps in supply and demand. you just hit on a really important point. ing because of turnovers is not sustainable.
8:10 am
we had the best five quarters for productivity this entire cycle. turnover picked up a lot in 2017 and 2018. 29% of the labor market turns over every quarter. the spread between inflation and the atlanta fed wage tracker is at its best level this entire business cycle. real wage growth is reasonably healthy, but it is coming in sectors like leisure and hospitality, where you are also getting capital investment, substitutional capital for labor, and workers are becoming displacingtive, and that. --irina:in the largest in the largest three to five categories, the workforce is

credible think tanks on this topic. central-bank policy is playing a much bigger role. let's think about the fed balance sheet specifically. there is been a considerable amount of focus on whether the fed will cut rates. obviously that is can shoot the rally we have had recently. we have had this idea contributing to the same these thesisidea -- the same the idea they will stop the bond purchases in september. the next step is the fed is transitioning their portfolio to all treasuries. putting those mortgages back to means thee sector private sector will hold the single biggest source of bond market volatility, which is mortgage prepayment risk. before the crisis that was held by fannie and freddie. they hedged after the 2002 duration ps going fannie mae. now the fed holds it.
8:35 am
they suppressed volatility. when they were buying mortgages like it was going out of style, they suppressed volatility and rates at the same time. that spike in the chart you showed was part of the early stages of that volatility getting pushed back into the market and that came as a result of a refinance bounce. that volatility is going back to the private sector. the next stage, as the fed transitions their portfolio and puts the volatility risk back into the market, is they are going to shorten the duration of their treasury holdings. they have said they want to match the treasury issuance, but it is significantly longer than that. the fed action will push duration up. it would not shock me if we got past the july meeting at some point and get another quick 30 basis point moves in real interest rates. those of the trigger events for the stock market selloffs in

september, october, december of last year. i'm with jpmorgan. we've been telling people to put on long end steepeners and be longer duration volatility. david: give me a time horizon. over the longer term, as long as central banks are saying we will step in if needed to step in. and $13 trillion in negative fielding debt? as long as you have that, you will not have a lot of volatility or high yields, will you? barry: it is hard to see the conundrum completely sorting itself out and rates going back to the same level as nominal gdp. you can get these series of impulsive shocks. a 30 basis point move in the course of three weeks and that will reverberate through the markets. it is almost like when you look at equity market volatility and say volatility is low, but then you have the volatility ball you have these high spikes, the same

thing is likely to occur in the bond market. when the mortgage prepayment risk is transferred back to the private sector. alix: where does that leave europe and japan? dead. the gtb market is you need to get significant changes in ecb policy. maybe lagarde will be different than everyone thought this week, but right now expectations are the policies will be continued and you expect low volatility on those markets, which brings you back to the short spikes. alix: do like bunds? barry: no. i do not hold any fixed income other than high deal. i am still quite bullish equities. i understand that if you get a spike you will have a pretty good job down in equities. david: barry knapp of ironsides

,f this happened 10 years ago where would we have found the jobs versus now? noah: great question. some of the bankers will have to reinvent themselves. there will be opportunities in tech. there will be homes for these folks. like afteris not 2008 where every hedge fund was hiring. traders,ens to all the especially the equity divisions being cut. noah: great question. there will be opportunities in equity capital markets. many funds have created capital markets roles in addition to origination roles. if you're a leveraged finance banker you will have an attractive job opportunity in a direct lending role. there will be roles for these folks but it will not be for everyone. are the nonbank banks as labor-intensive as the traditional banks? noah: that is probably right. sonali: it is a competitive job

and you are seeing a lot of the and these bankers will be under pressure to deploy that capital. how competitive are these jobs? noah: moving to the buy side has been a dream job for a lot of bankers. usually do it when you are third-year analyst and not a senior banker. there are bankers who enabled to break the mold and take -- at senior private equity firms. there will be opportunities in capital markets as well as direct lending. brought uplad you the distinction between a third-year analyst and a senior banking role. that comes with a lot more money. can private equity or leveraged finance pay these bankers what they are used to getting paid? noah: they will have to reinvent themselves in terms of how they think about company -- compensation. a lot of your compensation is structured in long-term kerry as

opposed to cash. sonali: last year it fell on wall street. are the banks going to be able to pay their talent to stay around? is the new norm for some. people are always managing their careers. we have been called many months in advance about people managing their careers and looking for opportunity. david: there is some hope people will find a job but the overall compensation structure much -- must be affected. if you take 18,000 jobs out of any industry, it will affect the compensation structure. noah: compensation structures are always being reevaluated. fundamentally, you want to be aligned with your clients performances. sonali: another big change, it feels like a lot of people are moving around. you are seeing goldman higher. used to work at goldman sachs. how is that changing? noah: i'm glad you brought that

and that is a similar situation we seeing a lot of banks across wall street. are bankers losing their powers to other areas of other banks? u.s. many of the large banks have merged their corporate and investment banking years ago and have gone through the motions already. that being said, there will be a shift. deutsche bank is focusing on the -- less on the investment bank in the u.s.. that will be a change. david: is your phone ringing off the wall? noah: i would say is last several months. people see there is writing on the wall and you have to see what options you have. it does not mean you are looking to leave immediately, but they are always managing their careers. alix: you talk to people all of the time. what are they talking about in terms of their career path? sonali: if you're a traitor, there is a lot of fear. if you are an investment banker -- think how many people we have at the top.
