7:01 pm
asia. shery: we are counting down to the major market open. the stock rally said to continue in asia after big gains on wall street. the worst of this year's equity may be over. earnings optimism is a cute driver, netflix seeing a return to growth as a reportedly smaller than expected subscriber loss. crypto's rally with big breaking out of a month long training ranch will get the full case at the bloomberg crypto summit. annabelle: the big question is have we seen the worst of the equity rout? we see big gains, new zealand trading a percent higher. we are looking pretty flat. a lot of optimism around
7:02 pm
earnings, we had the serious rally on wall street. we are also keeping an eye on the aussie three year yield. i want to point out unnecessarily market moving, we have the australian government announcing the first review into the rba since 1990's. let us also pull up the terminal tart and look at the other factors driving the equity -- chart and look at the other factors driving the equity. giving up a percent, that is also the other question here. we are seeing the peak of the dollar. shery: we have seen the weakness in the dollar except against the japanese yen. the s&p 500 saw the best day in three weeks. all 11 industry groups gaining ground. we have a volatile earnings season.
7:03 pm
the recession fears, any outside supervisors are leading to the outside gains. netflix, not to mention we are also watching twitter and tesla reporting tomorrow as well. we have the 10 year yield topic 3%. we see how long that continues because we saw a gain until 3.5% mid june. appearing back those gains in yields as soon as we talked the level given recession fears as i mentioned. heidi: garfield reynolds, whether this is setting up, given the tailwinds from overnight? >> i would say in a lot of ways this is a rally that equity investors have been waiting for. are we there yet rally? it is not a lot of fun, that has
7:04 pm
been the stock market. at some stage, you get past the worst of it and it is all uphill from the thick. -- from there. the basic idea is when is the capitulation happening? when is all of the bad news priced in? there is hope ruling that all of the bad news has been priced in. we will see how sustainable that is because there is a lot of bad news to price in. we will have plenty of risk out there for those who are coming back in. equities got pretty cheap for a reason. whether they got cheap enough. shery: that risk leads to more haven flow towards the dollar. we are seeing people talk about peak dollar. >> yes. the dollar on a couple of measures look like i may be
7:05 pm
getting close to a peak. it actually touched briefly the bloomberg dollar index, the highest since i gauge was brought in. started in 2004, that even exceeded the pandemic peak. you have a similar metrics for other dollar indicators. we also have a lot of positioning. very heavy positioning for the dollar to gain. that made it vulnerable to a snapback, especially with the combination of butter sentiment. the fed talk down the idea of a 100 basis point hike and it has stopped talking in the quiet period. all of that makes for understandable conditions for the dollar to come up a fair bit. are those dynamics which have been driving dollar strength, how they faded enough or are they no longer strong enough to sustain it at these high levels?
7:06 pm
that is a big question going forward. one concern is what is going on in the treasuries market. yields went back over 3% for the 10 year, but not by a lot. the yield curve actually ended lower on the day. further inverted on the day. that underscores the recession concern. it is not some faultless forecast that there will be a recession. a recession is on people's mind. that also has to act as a caution on -- especially on volatile equity gains. what you would like to see from here would be the equities settle down and start to grind higher instead of jump up and then be volatile to dropping back. shery: he is a contributor with his take on the market moves.
7:07 pm
we watch a netflix, gaining. a return to growth after losing 970,000 subscribers in the second quarter. less than what wall street feared. that is thanks to stranger things, let us work with our senior editor. they are calling it a success. it is less bad than what was expected. >> we are seeing it in the stock. it is a relief rally. it is also taking some of the warner bros., disney, paramount, all of these other companies with it. there has been a lot of anxiety in hollywood about the streaming business speaking and it is not robust growth of the are protecting but it is a return to some growth.
7:08 pm
heidi: i think it is clearing a very low bar that was set. even netflix acknowledging it is hard to contact allies that as a win. what do we see in changes to revenue strategy if we see a continued slow down when it comes to growth outside of basically everywhere except asia? >> they are doing quite a few things and they updated that on us today, advertising, they did subtly delay it, it was going to be an ad supported here rolling out later this year, they are saying early next year. they have a big deal with microsoft to sell the ads for them. they continue to say that this is a strong business for them going forward. they're cracking down on password sharing, other people sharing accounts and they are charging people extra. they are experimenting with this in latin america.
7:09 pm
another three dollars a month. they say that is going wild. their target sees a broader role out of that next year. shery: any other surprises that call your attention? >> there is a lot of anxiety in hollywood, there has been layoffs, fighters have been canceled. spending would be around $17 billion on content. it is a big number but it will stay in that range with a moderate growth going forward. if you expect a lot of wild spending that is not great. it is reassuring that there is a $17 billion going out to actors and directors and writers who keep the content machine turning. shery: let us get you to vonnie

dollar narrative? how much more to the dollar rally? >> i think it is a bit too early to look at the level of the dollar and call it a peak. the expectations call for a leveling off of the dollar relative to other global currencies. that dollar expectation has moved quickly. most pundits were looking for 75-100 rates of tightening. we moved to 350 in 2022. we have been behind of the eight ball, we are behind the curve, i expected to stay relatively stable. shery: we are seeing so much strength given the weakness of the euro and how the ecb has lagged. what do you make of how they invest? >> we look for signs of life around europe, the valuation

where companies took massive leverage, took asset liability mismatches. short-term deposits on what they lent out long. those are the ways that people go bankrupt. the tale is as old as time. it happened and it happened a lot of ways. that is greed, ignorance. it is frustrating because of the whole industry looks like a bunch of idiots. what is interesting is the defy and beyond chain stuff worked as it was supposed to work. it was transparent, people got stopped out when they were supposed to be. there was no you lied to me. i did not know the rules. a lot of ways, this crises is an advertisement for more

8:03 pm
even mortgage restrictions as well as developers getting financing for existing projects. that's in the near term. for the second half of this year, policy rate cuts perhaps once more on the rrr rate. shery: we have seen the rally in the u.s. markets after a lot of negativity. any upside surprise this helping markets. guest: earnings estimates have to come down a little bit more. next year's earnings are looking

8:05 pm
perhaps even starting as early as next month. haidi: what are the other big risks for the asia-pacific? this is probably a region where we are hopeful there might be patches of growth. guest: the biggest risk is from global macro weakness and potential recessionary risks. that stems from europe. that is certainly not a done deal. still a relatively softer landing. for the export oriented economy
8:06 pm
that could potentially be a significant hurdle as there could be decreased demand for their products. shery: i am surprised you are calling for overweight on em government bonds. it continues to show risks rise. we have seen the warnings from the imf, a third stock of tightening and potential more defaults. guest: it is an environment where we have to be selective even within asset classes and bonds, certainly countries that are not energy exporters will do better in this environment and also certain em countries that have balance sheets, so certainly that asset class is on bail.
8:07 pm
we are seeing yields at a more interest in level than a year ago. investors should stay probably diversified in bonds that i think it should be looked at. shery: talking about commodities exporters, we have seen a little bit of pressure on the outside as well. it will get worse if we see recession for the u.s., chinese demand, where we see them in the next year. guest: commodities broadly speaking are continuing to be an asset class investors should continue to look at. when it comes to energy, the supply side and capex investment space for energy and oil, there
8:08 pm
has been significant underinvestment. when it comes to agriculture, i don't think we have seen the bottom of current scarcities, so i think i culture continues to be an interesting investment opportunity. haidi: always great to have you with us. looking at the movers when it comes to netflix, admittedly clearing a low hurdle. annabelle: you can call it that. we saw the return to growth. one million subscribers loss, but asian-pacific helped boosted. taking a look here at the korean studios linked to netflix.
