4:04 am
thank you for joining us. does the fed have any choice but to cut? >> no. [laughter] francine: so they will cut because the market says? >> yes, but it is because they have indicated it. you could say that the market has a driven it, but they have been leaning in that direction and have not taken it back. now, it is too late. --ncine: if you litter listen to richard clarida, he was saying it was much more tempered and that the market cap -- priced in. fed going to worry they are facing a lack of independence not just from president trump but the markets? erik: it is always the problem. there, i think the fed has been to state its independence, in a sense. thisntral banks don't do
4:05 am
-- when a central banks don't do this, it is because the markets tell them. let me look at my chart showing one of the preferred yield curves the fed looks at. if you look at our question of the day, will the treasury curve the flatter or steeper after jay powell's doubleheader? erik: i think it will be flatter. but i am not sure if there is a whole lot left in it in the sense that it is priced. the market has understood what they intend to do. i don't think they will correct us at the stage. francine: if you look at the fact that the three month 10 year yield has inverted since may, is the fed worried about that? is it an impending recession? the message out of the fed
4:06 am
has always been that we should not be so worried about the inversion of the curve. there are different issues at play. i never really bought it. it is a pretty good predictor for recessions. in the fed cannot prevent it from happening. they can cushion the blow from it coming out early. and if they do go ahead in terms of cutting, they are earlier in the cycle than any of the other previous downturns. so that will help cushion the downturn. but you are right, you also refer to the labor data. all of the probabilities we have on the recession are all flashing red. so we have lots of reason for them to start to become more dovish. francine: is this with a trade war that is here to last? we heard from mr. kudlow that the talks seem to be back on track. specter of worsening
4:07 am
trade tensions it's taken off the table, what does that mean for trade policy? erik: i don't think it means anything because the fed cannot change policy based on trumps tweets. it is a tv reality show. on the off, love each other, don't love each other. the underlying problem is the guy is a protectionist. he is out to change the way the world is working in putting trade infringements on. that is bad for growth. the central bank knows it. the key reason we are seeing the change in tone from the fed and the ecb is because they are getting nervous about this. francine: if the fed cuts, is it one and done? erik: no chance. there is this insurance idea, but that is not the way it works. can you ever member a weakening economy and you do one? when they start, and they will
4:08 am
start, i guess they will do for cuts in all -- four cuts in all. but the risk is for more rather than less. francine: thanks, we will get back. we are getting some news saying that in south africa, they may cut some 2000 jobs as part of the restructuring program. 's we will have a good look at some of the steel prices and its impact on these producers. coming up, we talk about deutsche bank's rating. that's coming up next. this is bloomberg. ♪

4:13 am
when you look at deutsche bank, what has the plan changed in your eyes? >> how has it changed? francine: what does it mean for the creditworthiness? >> the key thing from our point of view is that the recently announced construction plan is bond friendly when and if achieved. francine: will it be achieved? the share price rose when restructuring was announced and that people said that this may be too ambitious. so do you have similar concerns? aurie: we think there are three main challenges of the group will face in achieving this plan. the first thing is that they have to achieve a massive reduction of this capital relief addition, they need to restrain the franchisor roshan in their remaining fixed
4:14 am
youme business -- franchise roshan and their remaining fixed income business. erosion in their remaining fixed income business and have to do it in a difficult environment. francine: is there a worry that by cutting too much into equities, they will lose customers elsewhere? laurie: that is what i was referring to. they want to retain a sizable fixed income franchise. their corporate bank which is now at the core of the business model. , butey expect some erosion more than they desire will work against what they are trying to achieve. francine: what are you seeing in tokyo's -- cocoas? laurie: the spreads have
4:15 am
cvs ond a bit, as have their nonpreferred and senior unsecured. as compared to the equity market, which is down. about are not concerned their ability to meet the coupons on those instruments. francine: what are you doing in terms of the credit rating? laurie: on the back of the announcement, basically we affirmed our baseline credit assessment which is be a one and our long-term deposits. but we kept our negative outlook which we had in place. that is a reflection of the challenges they will face in delivering this plan and the persistent low profitability they have been producing.
4:16 am
we expect it will remain at least through this year and probably flatten next year. francine: the concern is that this is a bank that will be very tied to the german economy at a time when the german economy is not doing great. erik: yeah, i'm worried. as he said correctly, the profitability is terrible. -- as you said correctly, the profitability is terrible. and also the issue of how much revenue you could realistically expect to generate at a time when the german economy is not doing well and headed for a downturn. then you have all the competition and the rest of it. so this is a tough one in the overall market. and german banks have been lacking. in the peripheral, we have cost to revenue ratios down. the last for deutsche bank was like 90 -- laurie: 97, yeah.
4:17 am
erik: is absurd. and the german banking market is still challenged by the fact that you have subsidized banks. so it is going to be tough, i think. francine: if the german economy gets better, how much is that impact the rating for deutsche that impact the rating for deutsche bank? laurie: a strengthening operating environment and rates going up would definitely be a boost for the plan. are done onmates the basis that that does not happen. and a deutsche's would be able to achieve about a 7% return on tangible equity by 2022. so it is still below what they are trying to achieve at 8%. francine: fabulous, thanks so much. associate managing director at moody's and erik from unicredit

larry kudlow says the initial talks were positive. let's get to another front in the trade war. president moon has warned the country's top business leaders they may have to dig in for an extended trade battle after japan lifted export controls on key components. joining us from soul is our reporter -- seoul is our reporter. >> present moon jae-in invited all of these company leaders and executives of the nations top 30 companies to the presidential office. suggested was that these companies focus on domestic products and domestic production. it is a bigger wave of rejectionism within the region for not only an extension of the china-u.s. trade spent, but also also making a
4:23 am
stretch to korea and japan. he is saying that korea's economy being heavily reliant on importers, south korea should shift to focus on domestic reducers -- producers. francine: what is the purpose of this meeting and to actually would attend -- who actually would attend? >> the companies include samsung, and they motors, lg, these are the companies that would be directly impacted. what moon jae-in is trying to do is send out a message, saying the government will that these companies up, pushing for an extra budget bill within the national assembly to protect these companies should they be
4:24 am
impacted by these export curbs. francine: thank you for the update. from korea.ining us we focus so much on the u.s. and china that we forget the chip -- the korea-japan tensions. are we expecting a currency war? are trade tensions something we just have to get used to? erik: i think that is right. even though we have the wto where people usually went to settle these things, it takes a long time. so there is nothing unusual about two countries gearing up a bit. but it is within the bigger framework and discussion of u.s.-china and the future of multilateralism. francine: what does it mean for the world economy? if you look at supply chains and things moving around, is it permanent? or does it drag everyone lower? erik: i think it drag everyone
4:25 am
lower. on the effectudy of some of these tariffs. in particular, the u.s.-china. but the numbers are enormous. looking at just tariffs trump has suggested, it can shave something like 2% off global trade over three years. this is massive. it means that global growth under 4% to aund little bit over 3%. -- within you are in a shiver of a recession. francine: do countries not adapt? erik: exactly, that is the short-term effect. and one of the interesting things in the dispute is that exports from vietnam to america have exploded. , butu redirect quickly long-term gains, all of the
4:26 am
effect they have had in the world, all of the positive effects of globalization, particularly in emerging markets where we have never seen such success before, that is being challenged by this. francine: we have to come back and ask you about renminbi at seven and what that means for trade. erik from unicredit stays with us. coming up, the candidates for the next u.k. prime ministers clash over brexit, we ask if they are ready for the october 31 deadline. we have more from the debate and the latest polls. if you look at what happened yesterday, parliament was flexing its muscles as boris johnson doubled down on a no deal brexit. this is the word. -- this is a bloomberg. ♪ xfinity mobile is a wireless network

4:33 am
crisis and make a great success. that means being honest with people. the way to do that is to get brexit done. francine: let's get the latest our executive editor and erik. we had this vote in parliament. what does that mean? positions,ing of particularly if boris johnson becomes prime minister. lawmakers are saying we do not want to be bypassed. boris johnson says i am keeping option on the table. point, he is a hard-line brexiteer. instead of saying i would negotiate with the other parties or have discussions, he is
4:34 am
saying this is what i want from a deal and i am going to get it done in time. if he gets the leadership, it is an antagonistic relationship with parliament. a fight, if there was who would win? rosalind: john major saying he would sue to stop johnson prime minister from suspending parliament. it is unclear how that would work. parliament should have the right to vote on the deal, whatever deal boris johnson would negotiate or try to renegotiation -- try to renegotiate. francine: i thought that is what the gina miller thing did. if he negotiates something else with brussels, does that need to get voted on by parliament? rosalind: that is unclear. the aspect they wanted to get
4:35 am
through parliament last night they did not. if there is a no deal exit, there is no deal to get through parliament. that is not an option he sees as likely. he wants it on the table because he wants to use it to go to brussels to negotiate with. francine: the market is in position for a possible no deal brexit. there is a lot of confusion. what does this mean for where brexit ends up and where the economy ends up in 12 months? erik:'s it is bad. uncertainty is bad. there has been some misunderstood optimism that it is not so bad because you have seen the households have taken savings down to keep conception up. growth has been held up from the underlying -- and the uncertainty is very clear. there is a common sense feel that surely this country will
4:36 am
not crash out like this. investment has not crashed completely. i am worried. you see this debate and you say where is this country going? it is not about inside, outside so much. what kind of deal are we going to get now? i am getting very nervous this could be very ugly. francine: there are a lot of people who do not want a no deal brexit. there are still people in parliament that do not want brexit at all. what is the probability of no deal and what is the probability of no brexit? erik: both probabilities have gone up in a way. the no brexit is a very low probability in my view, but it has gone up from extremely low to not completely impossible anymore. there is possibility boris johnson, with all of his charlatan attitude, goes off and
4:37 am
tries to sell something that is -- to theresa may's deal. maybe the declaration gets a little bit of something and he somehow cannot get it through. i do not know. i was surprised the vote yesterday and parliament was by one vote. it tells you the conservatives are not obeying all of the whip. it is one vote. francine: when does the commission in europe -- when is it fully up and running? is it a done deal that boris johnson prime minister? i keep looking at polls and it looks like he is the clear winner. rosalind: he is well in front. his popularity base is with tories in rural areas. they like what he is saying, they like he is going to bring power to the conservative party, re-energize the tory party. for all of his flaws and comments, he is the guy that can

would mario draghi do something to help her out before, to put extra stimulus so she does not have to do it or would it be better for the outgoing president to wait? erik: i don't think that is the way he thinks. mario draghi thinks of it in the following way. the world is looking troublesome. arectations and europe coming down. he does not want uncertainty about the change from him to the next one. what he is trying to do, people say he is trying to tie in his successor. i see it as a way of securing continuity. that is what he was doing. he paved the way. the question is whether he delivers before he leaves or whether he gives it to her. my guess is he will do some before he leaves. francine: does it make a difference for the markets? if he does something, is the outlook worse than we think? erik: the market gets excited about whether you cut rates one month or the next month. francine: very excited.

5:06 am
global economy, there are strong arguments for him remaining on a dovish path. that is what the market expects. long as that is maintained, the market can overcome recent turbulence and treasuries can rally and stocks can go up a little higher. had a strong vector to an economy -- to accommodate a fed. to almostven it up stasis by the fed. that is a completely different discourse than what we would have seen two weeks ago. it is a difficult set up to see the data or understand the data in front of them. the market has already priced this rate cut and they have not
5:07 am
done anything about it so far in terms of this thinking. i would be shocked, almost rule he would use this opportunity to start to correct a market misperception if that is the case. is the market misconceptions the right way? don't think so. this is a central bank looking at the downside risk to global trade and is trying to ensure against the impact that would have on the domestic economy. in many ways, they have changed the paradigm they are focusing on. the otherocusing on part of the mandate, on the inflation side, as the reason to deliver a monetary policy path. if they were to roback expectations and think about the
5:08 am
expectations, it is what the president would not want, what the domestic economy would not want. if they rolled back those expectations, they would have to deliver the expectations, but they would be further behind the curve. francine: after the testimony of jay powell, what will happen to the yield curve? will it steepen or flatten? rik said it would flatten. peter: we differ. there have been a lot of focus on the steepening in the longer end of the curve. it looks like fast money, leveraged accounts have been taking off. , theyf the steepeners reinitiate them once they have confidence the july cut will materialize and they get confirmation that the fed is globally focused. do they have to deal with a

back from parliament to shut it down. >> it is vital we come out on october 31. by octobern to leave 31. >> a badly handled, disruptive no deal brexit could be costly. >> what you are telling businesses as they do not need to prepare for no deal. that is very dangerous. >> i do not think we are going to end up with a no deal exit. i do not think there will be the disruptive or disorderly brexit you fear. >> we need leadership to guide us through a constitutional crisis and make a success of brexit. that means being honest with people. path tout us on the long-term success. the way to do that is to get exit done. francine: joining us as the brexit editor at bloomberg. peter is with us as well. we watched the debate, most of us watched the debate. it feels like parliament does
5:15 am
not want a no deal, but boris johnson is doubling down, saying i am going to have to fight with parliament if i need to. takings johnson is not off the table this option. be, there it would would be a precedent for it, but it would be controversial. parliament would have to come might take their revenge on a prime minister that has sent them away. he would takeing the government to court if it tried to suspend parliament. boris is talking to this electorate who are voting. they are pro-brexit. that heot to make clear would pursue no deal if that is
5:16 am
the only option. francine: we are getting reviews out of the european union. the figures for their outlook are forecast for 2020. they are cutting euro area growth and inflation forecast for next year. they talked about trade tensions. they say policy uncertainty is weighing on the region. strengthens the case of mario draghi's stimulus. presidentone here for draghi and president lagarde's accommodation. it is stunning, the mathematical nominations of gdp. that is a stunning statistic. it is unbelievably tepid. francine: it is. to put this into context, we
5:17 am
nominatedtine lagarde as ecb president. the question is whether mario draghi does stimulus before she takes over to make her life easier or not. the other question is because we have an incoming commission, if you go back to brexit, it will be difficult to go back to brussels and get an answer back. people forget the 31st of october deadline seems like it is around the corner as you need to give brussels time to get the new people in place. the new commission takes over after the deadline. the question is, if there were another extension, which people indeed, it would force the new commission. tom: i have an important question. let's wring this up. charts the most important
5:18 am
on twitter. this is the chart of what will happen in parliament. there are all of these options. this is brilliant. does force johnson or the other guy, did they know this chart? are they aware of the optionality forward? emma: i think so. been johnson's team has wargaming the possibility of an early general election. that is one of the options in that chart. several arrows lead to a general election. if you have parliament deadlocked and parliament will not let the new prime minister pursue a no deal, and the eu does not budge, which is looking likely, one of those options is an election, a risky strategy for any conservative prime minister to take before brexit has been delivered. tom: thank you for the

5:24 am
this is the case the european areission's forecast similar to the ecb. francine: what does it mean for euro? is dollar to strong? is it overvalued? peter: i believe it is. can the ecb deliver the monetary easing to offset the monetary theng from the fed to allow dollar to depreciate? that is a difficult point. this is a currency war. behaves bizarrely in a currency war scenario. monetary easing is not very effective in a currency war scenario. you have to think about who is going to be effective in getting the currency low, probably no one. that means 100 basis points cut from the fed, and equivalent cut from the ecb do not have the desired impact historical models

5:36 am
growth and activity. we had some slower data coming out of many of the economies around the world. backe copper prices trade below three dollars a pound. the supply side is really intriguing to us. a lack of investment into new supply combined with high levels of disruption and low levels of inventory and warehouses, makes the copper market look tight. as we look forward to the future with demand likely to rise with electrification, the prospects to the demand-supply balance is one where we should see copper trading higher. tom: in your report, a single sentence is critical. they really straightened out the expense side and that whole silly vision thing from tenant 20 years ago. -- 10 and 20 years ago.

have they done it or will they get stupid again? evy: i think the evidence is the best thing to look at. the companies have been resilient on their strategy, focused on free cash flow generation and debt reduction. they have not been spending unwisely and i have been returning money to shareholders. these make a compelling story for resource equities. others that are struggling through with regard to technology and the disruption taking place their business, ratiosu look at the pare of the core companies that many people own, the resource companies have little debt and high cash flow, i cannot understand why the sector is not that are rated. francine: let me ask you about

jurisdictions, becoming more negative. this would be a global trap, liquidity trap for central banks. tom: how many basis points on the german ten-year is more negative? is it a nuance of five basis points or can it be something more substantial? peter: the market is assuming the ecb cuts by just over 20 basis points over a one-year horizon. that is fine, and then starts doing qed, that is an assumption -- qe, that is an assumption. what if that does not work? francine: what does that mean for treasuries? peter: the fed would be cutting rates and we are in a world where any safe security with a positive nominal yield will be seen as attractive. the idea that governments can fund negative rates is becoming

esg expectations in the last few years. you go back a few years before that, clients would assume that by investing around esg and choosing to go in that direction , they would be sacrificing an element of return. ,ow the expectation has shifted if you are investing in this way , surely the companies being run along the esg parameters well do the best in time because they have the opportunity to grow their business against companies that are not following those policies. from returns going costing more to returns being higher. francine: thank you so much, evy hambro and peter chatwell. coming up, plenty more on deutsche bank, shares trading higher. they were down some 7.3%. today, gaining 2%.

5:52 am
price erosion and yield expansion? filippo: in terms of the coco development, it is a little bit surprising because all the targets were telegraphed before the supervisory board meeting, so the market should have been surprised by the fact that they were lower in the cet1 rates. if you look at the size of the internal bank, they increase from 50 to 74 billion euros. out and waiting for the execution. tom: you know in every single case, bonds lead equity. what are the signals we are seeing in the debt market on this troubled bank? filippo: in that case, when the

5:54 am
capital raising? filippo: you cannot. a capital raise will be good for the bondholders, but it seems not the main avenue for that. we need to wait towards the end of the year, q3 or q4. we can always come back to that. tom: that is right where i wanted to go, the x axis of bond guys like you versus the x-axis of the stock market. they want to go out to 2022. they don't have that luxury. they have to get out to q3 and q4 of this year. filippo: there is a credibility deficit which is more due to the past management than the current one which has been in place for only about a year. ,he approval they are putting we need to see some traction in q3 and q4.

between now and the july 31 decision. if the fed does not think they will go, powell needs to tell us today so the markets can take the air out of the balloon. francine: the concern is that if they disappoint the market, they will have to double down the stimulus to go back to the level we are now. is it more likely that those cuts are because the market put them in a corner? stephen: i look at last friday as an encouraging development on that front. the employment number was good. there was a pretty significant adjustment in rates and fed expectations, and the market went down but not much. we could afford to lose a few percentage points and still be at good levels. the fact that if the fed has to ease or the market will crater,

6:15 am
we could see a constitutional crisis because parliament will try for no deal to not happen. emma: i think it will bring a full-blown constitutional crisis. they have modeled along and now because of various problems, the country is very divided, parliament is divided, and required a mass of legislation to get it done, parliament definitely has a majority against no deal. boris johnson says he will leave the option on the table of suspending parliament to push through a deal. what we saw last night was a weak effort. strongest one was not selected, so we saw a weak amendment approved by just one vote. john major saying if boris
6:16 am
johnson were to suspend parliament, he would take him to court. all the bits of democracy potentially coming into play. we will even be talking about the queen, i suspect, because the queen suspends parliament. u.s.is country, unlike the , a prime minister is chosen by the queen based on the results of parliamentary elections, and if he does not command a majority in the house of commons he cannot govern. a fight between the executive and parliament brings back memories of the 17th century. it will be an interesting few months for constitutional experts. tom: will they in the coming where thee a majority dup of northern ireland is the key vote? emma: that is an interesting

country to country, it is a different story. it is rebelling over a tepid gdp. stephen: there is definitely a global element to that. the question is can a populace govern effectively? tom: it is an experiment in real time. stephen: we see that in the u.s. and we may see that in the u.k. tom: nominal gdp was 3%. where is the animal spirit in america? can we get to a run rate of 5%? stephen: i think it is south of that, but a little better than 4%. the consumer is pulling the wagon. businesses have pulled back because of uncertainty around the trade situation, but if we get that resolved i think we get back to a decent run rate. tom: really interesting to have

6:24 am
lagarde comes in. does it make a difference? is it mario draghi to tie her hands or giving her a hand in laying out policy? stephen: probably more the latter. to start the sure taper process before yellen came in, who started the tightening before powell came in. helping out by what might be considered as a tough or controversial step before your successor comes into office to make it easier. tom: 12 years ago, we did not know what quantitative easing was. what have we learned? stephen: the jury is still out. at the fed, they feel like it was somewhat effective. i am a little more skeptical. at lowered interest rates. to what end? tom: the asset market, we have

he has been asking people around him to cast a ballot for ways to weaken the dollar. what does that tell us about what could happen and the currency market? stephen: it tells you a lot about president trump's mindset. he knows he needs a strong economy to win the election and is looking for every possible way to make sure that happens. a weaker dollar would be helpful in terms of boosting growth into 2020. i am not sure there is that much that can be done from the perspective other than trying to pressure the fed to ease more. in some ways, it may very well be the game plan is not so much to get anything done as to have a scape goat in the event that the economy slows down. president trump will look for
