6:03 pm
the u.s. and china met in vienna setting the stage for a possible call between president biden and xi jinping. both sides describing beijing's talks constructive after the security advisor, jake sullivan, held two days of talks. the white house says the issues include tensions over russia and taiwan. jp morgan's jb -- jamie dimon is weighing in on ties on the two countries. he says u.s. and china have differences and that is ok. >> this is a serious subject. anything that relates to nasa security i am a patriot first. but that aside. with the government, what it should do, and wants to do, and going to do, they will have tough conversations but they should be thoughtful. certain things are security and certain things are not. we should not confuse the two.
6:04 pm
the u.s. and china have a lot of common interest, antiterrorism, global stability. and we have differences. we are capitalist, they are not. it's ok. we need to keep the western alliances together, not just around war and ukraine, but around strategic, economical leaderships including trade. we can't take trade off the table every time we talk to europe or asia. i would go back to the tpp. i what's around the world. i would want to keep their world safe for democracy and have open markets. when i was here last we passed the ara act. there are things i don't like, like too much of the social engineering side of it. it pissed off our allies. >> if china does more noise on finance does that hurt chinese growth? >> probably. you have seen -- it is not trade, but you have seen
6:05 pm
investment going both ways coming down. that's ok in the short run. in the long run, the government has to decide. this is not going to be business companies deciding. when congress criticizes business, there may be truth to that. they have to decide what is ok and what is not ok, what they want. that is around trade, investment, sharing ip. >> i give you one million pounds, where you invest? >> jp morgan. i would not buy sovereign debt anymore. >> why? >> i think there's too much. the amount of fiscal stimulus that took place and that is surging in the system, the amount of qe, those were extraordinary numbers not just in u.s., but europe and other parts of the world. i mean extraordinary. i think there is a chance to get more inflation. while the fed controls short rates, they don't control longer rates. you could see longer rates ticking up, because of higher
6:06 pm
inflation. even if there is a mild recession they continue to take up. a lot of us experience that in the 1970's and 1980's. rates are kind of low. spreads are kind of low. >> you are not putting them in sovereign, where are you putting that million? >> central banks. shery: jp morgan's ceo speaking exclusively to francine lacqua. ties between washington and beijing were in focus at the g7 finance ministers meeting in japan, with janet yellen saying she is hoping to discuss a new set of possible restrictions on outbound investments to china. our chief north asia correspondent, stephen engle joins us. what else did secretary yellen say? stephen: well, yellen was front and center with the first press conference afternoon yesterday, it kicked off. the gathering here. all the topics that jamie dimon spoke with francine lacqua were
6:07 pm
on the table throughout meetings here at the g7. behind closed doors, yes, but mostly about financial system security and stability following the svb may collapse. central banks are in focus. we talked about other -- with other top economic officials among the g7. sources are telling us they are gearing up for the end of next week, the leaders summit in china, while -- and that china is not represented in the g7, it is the top center of focus at least for the u.s., trying to show some unity and get the europeans as well as the japanese, the other members, on board with maybe some tougher messaging on china. any particular communique coming out of the leaders summit in hiroshima. the concern is about china's alleged growing economic coercion.
6:08 pm
that's the language the u.s. would like to see, other g7 members adopt. the europeans have been using the phrase de-risking without decoupling. there have been indications that the u.s. have soft and their stance. -- softened their stance to not provoke china. janet yellen addressed these issues including trying to get support for what we are hearing would be an investment restriction, executive order, coming as early as next week's leadership meeting in hiroshima on key investment in china sectors that could potentially pose national security threats to the u.s. i am talking ai, semiconductors, quantum computing. she says it is going to be narrowly scoped, and at technologies that pose a threat. this is what janet yellen said at the press conference which i attended yesterday afternoon. >> this should be national
6:09 pm
security focus. it's not focused on undermining china's economic competitor -- competitiveness or ability to advance economically. haidi: yellen addressed an invasion of russian sanctions. what is the strategy going forward for the g7? stephen: i think they want to choke off evasion of those sanctions. russia's ability to a beta the -- of aid the sanction, a clear concerted -- invade the sanctions -- evade the sanctions. they also put pressure on companies and jurisdictions. her words, known for facilitating the evasion and shutting down challenges. we've seen a surge in chips, integrated circuits and other technologies from other third parties like kazakhstan, the
6:10 pm
uae, turkey, china. they did not name those countries but they are trying to choke off russia's ability to evade those sections and perhaps tighten those sanctions. no indication whether there will be a further push for sanctions. she also praised the cap on crude oil prices for stabilizing the global economy while also limiting russia's ability to wage its war in ukraine. by the way, on that china element, i need to bring in beijing's perspective. they are not represented here. the ministry of foreign affairs spokesperson did address the g7 yesterday at the regular briefing in beijing, saying -- dismissing the g7 as a small click that puts the u.s. first, the international rules the g7 talks about our western rules that only serve the interests of the g7 and a few others. china is not represented here, by trying to be heard. shery: stephen engle there,
6:11 pm
joining us from japan. we will be speaking exclusively with secretary yellen from the g7 summit later. do not miss that conversation at 5:30 p.m. in sydney and 3:30 in hong kong. we will also be speaking with oec secretary general mathias cormann in the next hour. in the u.s., softer than expected producer prices and higher than expected new jobless claims could be pointing to a slowing economy, even as these numbers failed to convince one tough fed official that the inflation fight is over. our global economics and policy editor kathleen is here with the latest. the markets are pricing in recession this year. but neel kashkari thinks prices come first. kathleen: everybody in the fed figures they come first until recession brings them down. let's look at the consumer.
6:12 pm
that is one thing that pleased investors so much after better than expected consumer price index numbers this week. on a year-over-year basis, the headline was up 2.3% in april, that is down from 2.7% in march. the core, takes out food and energy, up 3.4%, down from 3.7% in march. services are sticky, especially air transportation and health care. that is one of the reason fed officials may not say all clear for producer prices. let's put in jobless claims. they have been rising. he suddenly jumped to 264,000. the highest since october of 2021, that is up from 242,000. neel kashkari speaking at an event early -- earlier, he is president of minneapolis. he said they were surprised at how inflation got and how persistent it has been.
6:13 pm
it is coming down but not enough. let's listen to what he said. >> inflation has come down. but it is still well above our 2% target. we have seen some softening in wage growth nationally, but it is very mixed. kathleen: very mixed indeed. wage gains in the latest jobs report, days ago, accelerated in april. average hourly earnings were up 4.4% year-over-year from 4.2%. that is the theme, neel kashkari, a voter this year, is looking at. heidi it is not surprising people think, maybe this is closer to the peak in inflation or it is starting to come down. the fed has a bit of time to see more numbers before the next meeting in june. for neel kashkari, he is not convinced. haidi: our global economics and policy editor, kathleen hays. front and center of expectations in terms of how asian assets have been tracking. we will be tracking any further
6:14 pm

6:15 pm
comes to tech, after we saw that is a major drag on the broader embassies. let's get over to vonnie quinn. >> thank you. president joe biden's debt ceiling meeting with kevin mccarthy and other congressional leaders have been pushed from friday to next week. according to white house officials the postponement is a signal that the staff level talks are making progress and the push to reach a deal of the debt ceiling is approaching. the president will meet with congressional leaders next week. the largest bank space -- faced millions of dollars to replenish the government's nourishment fund. it stems from the regulators decision that all deposits from svb and signature bank. that move costed deposit insurance funds about $15.8 billion. turkeys made oppositional alliances accusing russians of meddling in the presidential election. the presidential candidates --

is panic. the treasury markets will have their own problems. it is amazing you have certain -- trading 5%, this is not good. haidi: jp morgan's ceo talking about the u.s. debt ceiling. we've heard president biden and the u.s. house speaker kevin mccarthy's meeting to discuss these debt negotiations slated for friday has been pushed into next week, to allow more substantial discussions to take place. let's get a view on how all of this is infecting investor sentiment. the ceo of ershares, joins us from boston. always great to have you with us. there is a sense we are seeing stability, or at least calm in u.s. markets that belies the risk of what would happen going into next week. we see that being reflected into assets. are you thinking that there is less volatility than potentially
6:21 pm
is warranted by this risk? >> i think we don't see any volatility in the last couple of days. the market does not pay attention to what is happening to the debt ceiling. most of us realize it is mostly political game. as jamie dimon said, it will be catastrophic to not raise the ceiling, to begin with very few countries around the globe have a debt ceiling. it would be irrational for the u.s. not to raise it. most of us understand that this is a political game. i don't think the market really pays attention to it. haidi: political games have impact on things like the u.s. dollar. we saw the best day since march for the broader dollar index but before that, weakness. the likes of goldman pointing out that the debt ceiling issue could deal a risk to the reputation and strength of the greenback. how does that impact asian assets across emerging markets for you? >> i think, as you said, there
6:22 pm
are a lot of ramifications globally. we see the russia/ukraine war, you have these macroeconomic tensions between the u.s. and china, and europe. we see some interaction between countries that are not very favorable. it's interesting to see, asia's side, the stock market has been flat. part of this is because of the macroeconomic games. the global economy is very sluggish. we see demand coming down as a result of tightening in europe and the u.s. china is a manufacturing country. that has significantly affected their output. ppis coming down. the price on the producer side is coming down. that is affecting the way traders are seeing china. shery: because of those echo numbers -- eco-numbers, we are seeing traders pricing and a potential pause from the fed and
6:23 pm
rate cuts. will we see more speculative trades becoming more popular? >> that is right. that's the case. if you look at the yield curve, it is interesting because it is the first time in a while, we are seeing a twist on the yield curve, on the short-term rates, their coming higher. on the long-term, rates are coming down. very interesting. the short-term rates, the one today reached 5.8%. on the long-term, you see the five-year has dropped 19 basis points in the last two months. that's favorable for loans and assets because these are the equities they will get their profits down the road in the future. it's beneficial for them. that has been the proof with the stock market since the fed announcement. we have seen the and -- the stock market soared. the companies that have led the way have been high gross speculative companies.
6:24 pm
shery: we have seen optimism this year when it comes to emerging markets. we are headed towards to big political elections this year in turkey and thailand. do you factor in political risk in some of these economies? how invested are you in those stocks outside of the u.s.? >> so, we have a very low, significantly low weight in international. it's not common for our portfolio management. we have been significantly overweight in the u.s.. we think the u.s. is still a safe haven, just because of all the global ramifications you mentioned before. when it comes to the u.s. again, we see rotation out of cyclicals into growth. again, growth with profits, growth at a reasonable price. growth without refinancing risk, which is important, especially with the banking crisis. this is our concentration. we are seeing a lot of risk locally.
6:25 pm
the safest bet is the u.s. right now. shery: eva ados, here. always great to have you with us. all the stories we have been discussing including the risks eva mentioned you can find in today's edition of daybreak. you can go to dayb , you can customize your settings so you only get the news on the assets you care about. this is bloomberg. ♪

6:32 pm
hopefully will not happen. the banking crisis will sort its way through and it is not anything like 2008 or 2009. only a couple of people off size, which you knew about. hopefully it is getting near the tail end. >> if you are janet yellen, what would you do differently? >> i don't know. we need to finish the bank crisis. we found an uncertain pause on mergers, the first horizon deal. we have to assume there will be more. whatever the fdic, the federal reserve, whatever they need to do to make it better, they should do. be very forward-looking. do not be surprised constantly. some of these things we have known about for a while. we've had all three, svb, signature, first republic. >> are you asking -- >> the regional banks, who are have been speaking to, they are quite strong. they are worried because of the

run to deposits but the financial deposits are good. they are ok next quarter. they are earning money. they have very good clientele, very diversified. they are quite strong. >> so you're asking janet yellen to get the job done, what does that look like? >> i'm not asking for a solution. just be prepared for problems. we don't need a comprehensive solution. >> we are doing this right now. do we need regulators to look at short-sellers of banks? >> yes. with my folks, they would tell me that is not the problem. if you analyze stocks and short sales, is not that big of a deal. they may partially be wrong. as you know, some people are unscrupulous and use other means to go short. if you look at the details, the sec has the enforcement capability to look at what people do by name in options, derivatives, short sales. if someone is doing anything wrong, people are in collusion
6:34 pm
or going to make a tweet about a bank, they should go after them and vigorously. the should be punishedy, to the full extent the law will allow. my experience in life has been the, do not assume too much. >> do you think things will change because of this? >> i think it will get worse for banks. >> what do you mean by that? >> more regulations, more rules, more requirements. i hope they do it thoughtfully. we love the community banks. we're the biggest banks of those folks. if you overdo certain rules, requirements, regulations, some of these community banks say they have more compliance people than loan officers. it makes it harder for them to do business. they're already hundreds of rules in place. if you're going to change liquidity may be not cap. maybe not capital, then liquidity. maybe you should do something with deposit insurance. they should sit down and have a thoughtful conversation about what those things are and what we want the outcome to be.
6:35 pm
if you look at the present outcome, a lot of people are leaving banks. if that's what they want, so be it. but it should be done with forethought, not because you're putting rules and regulations in place and you don't know the consequences. shery: jamie dimon is speaking exclusively to francine lacqua. the largest u.s. lenders will face billions of dollars to replenish the bedrock deposit insurance. the move comes after the funds were tapped to uninsured depositors after the collapse of signature bank and silicon valley bank. let's bring in su keenan. we knew this was coming. su: the bad news is the big banks are going to be paying the lions share of the billions it is going to take to replenish this fund, which was drained by the multiple rate -- multiregional bank failures. let's take a look at what the proposal laid out by the fdic called for. the largest banks will take the
6:36 pm
biggest hits. banks with more than $50 billion in assets will be off the hook to pay 95% of their fees. again, the fund was drained by these recent sprays -- recent bank failures. in particular, the special assessment that the fdic is placing on these banks, that stems from the extraordinary decision in march to ensure all deposits at the two failed lenders, svb, silicon valley bank, and signature bank, to ensure all deposits where normally the fdic only ensures deposits with up to 250,000 in an account. the cost of making that decision to go outside the typical bounds of what they cover is about 15.8 billion. the fdic chairman said that in general, large banks with large amounts of uninsured deposits
6:37 pm
benefited the most. the rational goes, they should be pitching in the most. the payments can be made in eight installments, quarterly, starting in 2024. the agency predicts 113 banks out of thousands in the u.s. walked to face the fees. again, they are staggering the deposits as a way to mitigate any liquidity concerns or claims of liquidity concerns. haidi: what kind of political battle lies ahead? su: it is going to get ugly. there is no question the proposal immediately pours fire -- or fuel on the fire that has been let in washington over the fdic, who will pay to refill the fund? that has been raging. there also a side debate on whether they should have ever raised the $250,000 floor as they did in this particular situation, and whether it should
6:38 pm
have been raised. in any event, a lot of controversy. notably, a lobbying group for the smaller banks, who have really been working hard to make sure they were not hit by any special assessment, they command the fdic for this decision. the agency is going to take comment on its plan for a few days and make tweets, holding another vote to finalize the plan. they've made it clear, the big banks are on the hook for most of it. that's unlikely to change. shery: su keenan with the latest on the banking sector in the u.s.. we have an alert on political, reporting that janet yellen will be meeting with a top wall street banker in washington. this as we continue to have on top of the risks and the banking sector that scramble to reach a deal to avoid a debt default. the treasury saying that yellen will talk with jamie dimon,
6:39 pm
citigroup, and other board members of the bank policy institute to discuss the impasse over raising the government's borrowing limit. this, of course,, very important as the biden meeting with congressional leaders has gone delayed until next week. let's get to the first word news with vonnie quinn. >> the bank of england has raised its benchmark rending late to the highest level since 2008. more increases may be needed if inflation persists. the central bank lifted its key rate a quarter-point .24 .5%. officials delivered the biggest upgrade to growth projections since 1997 dialing back on their previous forecast of a recession. >> we are approaching a point when we should be able to accept rest. in terms of the level of rest. we have not seen the evidence to give it a stronger sense of the read of that. that is why i am clear that we have to be evidence driven. >> the u.s. national security

6:42 pm
adani enterprises, you can see, trading 50% lower than its peak last year. other group stocks have not recovered. so, on the one hand, you have investors saying, this is a signal that the adani group needs cash now. on the other hand, investors are saying if adani can pull this off, it would be another step towards repairing some of the reputational damage. shery: any idea where shares could be priced? anabelle: we've got a couple of estimates coming through, but we are looking at around 1700 to 1900 rupees a piece. that would be realistic given where the stock is trading. we are looking at an up to 15% discount. but a stunning drop when he compare that to where we were for the rest of the share sale being floated back in january. we were near 3300 groupies a piece. at that point it was pulled. the question is what sort of
6:43 pm
volatility can we expect for adani ahead in the day. we saw stocks moving, as details of this fundraising plan came out. in the last hour, there has also been that news coming through that msci india is dropping to adani group companies from its index. this is adani transmission and adani total gas. really, big drop in the last six months. that could further hinder investor confidence. you will see further selling pressure as investors rebalance their portfolios. haidi: if the share sale proceeds, who are we seeing as likely buyers. anabelle: we are looking at could -- cornerstone investigators, firms that could put in extra cash. gq g, the u.s.-based fund to put nearly $2 billion into adani back in april. that was the most significant show of support from a major
