>> i do markets expect the lastingrus to have impacts on the economy. it's impact on the u.s. industrial economy is very little. actually quite beneficial to consumers. thatnk the narrative is the fed should keep interest rates on hold. markets are expecting a more dovish central bank, but i think with this current economic environment, the strong labor market data we have seen last the, and also generally u.s. economy is doing quite well. i don't think they really need to ease policy much more this year. seeing there still proverbial inflation, have we? bondsant to belong specifically because u.s. reflation trade may be weary due

to its only bonds, not selling bonds because of the unpredictability of trump in trade and because of the fed's inability to meaningfully move the dial on inflation expectation. i think that is the core adjunct of the bond market. would you agree with bank of america? >> i think markets are not very concerned about inflation even though actually the headline and , theall are about 2.3% now level previously, people were fearful of high inflation. inerally market participants of thes, it is not top risks for us. there is actually reason to be more cautious on high inflation and be protected from that because generally the risk is not that priced in. in terms of the mandates of full employment and stable inflation, there was a question from ayanna

pressley who asked whether the fed could ensure economic conditions in which anybody who wanted to work and can work will have a job available to them. it has prompted questions on the bloomberg about what for employment means. we don't want a philosophical debate, but does that also feed into the view that if the fed changes its focus at all, higher inflation is even further away? economy isthe u.s. at full employment already. jobou look at the number of openings, it is consistently higher than the number of unemployed since 2018, for example. the unemployment rate is near a 50 year low. there is actually still not a lot of inflation coming through. wage growth used to peek at 4%. now we have 3%. we are very far away from the fractional which actually would threaten the inflation outlook.

lagarde saying that to the european parliament as we continue to see stubbornly low inflation in the your area, including when you look at the swap forwards. nejra: thank you. janet, if we were already questioning the effectiveness of monetary policy in europe for coronavirus, that debate gets more heated now with unknown risks. >> absolutely. the outbreak of coronavirus has had an impact on europe that is not that big. the main impact is supply chain disruption and that will be more related to germany. 40% of germany's gdp is export. 25% is manufacturing. germany will be singled out as the more impacted country. in terms of tourism, some people ultimately they are just 1% of all tourists in

europe in 2018, so the impact is not that big. i think the concern is it will delay the manufacturing recovery in the eurozone. before the outbreak, what we observed in our in-house economic indicator is that it is pointing to recovery. it is quite a strong signal. it is recovering and this is in line with the indicators the market tracks, that bloomberg has, for example. it is the early stage, so the concern is whether it will delay it. i think probably it will because of the supply chain disruption. but i think as long as this outbreak does not go on for another month or so, the situation should get better in europe. with philipu agree lane, the chief economist of the ecb, who says we are clearly not reaching a reversal rate in ongoings it is evident

measures to lower lending rates continue to drive credit growth? >> i think we probably hit a reversal rate in the year at some point. euro at some- point. already negative side effects, most notably in banks. i think there is still credit growth in europe. if you look at the latest ecb survey, there is actually starting to have headwinds in terms of the banks lending standard and the demand for credit. point, it is not really the price of the loans. it is the demand and whether there is growth in the economy. there is a limit to whether low interest rates can stimulate. negative rates will not do

anymore. that mean fores your investment strategy in europe? potentially giving some kind of tailwind? >> there could be tailwind for equity. the most important reason why will be the recovery in the data. that will be quite positive for risk estimates in the eurozone. generally speaking, europe is not our preferred region in global asset allocation. our preferred region is the u.s. and emerging markets. manus: thank you very much. at 10909 -- es euro trades at 10909. bank of america says this time is going to be different. that is your morning call. coming up very shortly right here on daybreak europe. ♪

this comes down to what is it could bring to bear. you could get wages unexpectedly popping to the upside, and this is perhaps what one of those swans for -- grey 2020. >> i don't think it is a risk at the moment. ,he wage growth is at about 3% and we are at like a 15 year low unemployment rate in the u.s.. job growth is consistently very robust, over 200,000, even in such a late stage of the cycle. it is a phenomenal job market in the u.s.. we have wage growth of 3%, which is actually good for consumption, but is not the kind of rate, like 4% year on year, that we would be worried about. that would be historically the threshold, at 4%, when the fed

starts to worry about the transmission to the headline inflation. i don't think it is a big risk for wage growth to move from 3% to 4% this year. nejra: have we got into a point where whatever the outlook turns out to be, there is definitely an argument to be made to be owning bonds, particularly at the long end? >> i understand that. we are in a very uncertain world with elevated geopolitical risk. we think that will be quite persistent. i think innovation -- inflation could be structurally low, interest rate will be structurally low, growth as well. all of these factors suggest that holding long bonds could be a good thing to do, despite the very high valuations. i would choose between equities. at least you get better yields from their. nejra: makes sense. bern. up, feeling the
