some of the bankers -- david solomon has been saying he has been going into the office every single dayhat point do the banks start to main date people come in, for productivity, for culture, for ideas, for all of those things, but also so that people have some separation with the work life balance thing it is a problem working from home. >> i don't think offices go back to over 50, 60, 70% capacity until everyone is vaccinated i don't think anyone is pushing for that eventuality until that moment is reached. jp morgan's jamie dimon said only 10% will be fully from home people will be able to choose what days of the week ay home outside of that. the people i have for people our aim, plus or minus five years in finance people want to go back into the office, they are going stir crazy at home i don't think that ever caused as much friction internally at goldman sachs. what i will say, the key i think is an undertone is do people get paid a bonus that matches what they their their work forces policy is and their work policy performance? goldman doesn't have to face that up any time soon. t

david solomon said that we are focused on creating a digital bank with no plan frequent wallet now -- for a crypto wallet. but there are ways for banks to get in. they are offering institutional clients is. but it's a years late -- a year's weight. -- wait. >> we have seen the price of bitcoin rise today to another all-time high, at one point it traded at almost six to 5000. right now, it's trading 63,400 $77. we have seen other coins trade higher. ether, for example, is a big winner. it's done even better than bitcoin. on its own, this is a $1.2 trillion. if you look at the major crypto, you get the market cap of well over $2 trillion. we have the e.u. talking about their own digital currency. they talked about a more recently, how is the coinbase to ipo going to push the acceptance of cryptocurrencies into places it's never been before. >> just this morning you had mark cuban tweeting about two lines -- doge coins. do the trading volume start to change? another company that agreed to go public is known for its exposing -- exposure to the crypto universe. we asked the ceo if people w

we talked to him on the nasdaq, anyway, isn't it probably we couldn't ask him anything during david solomonture we'll see whether pigs can fly i don't think they can we're going to ask someone who just helped come up with a republican counter offer shelley moore capito she'll lay out her counter offer for roads, bridges, broadband and more when "squawk box" returns. all smartphones. let me break it down. you got your new customers — they get our best deals. you got your existing customers — they also get our best deals. everyone. gets. the deals. questions? got it. but, why did you use a permanent marker? because i want to make sure you remember. i am going to get a new whiteboard. it's not complicated. only at&t gives new & existing customers the same great deals on all smartphones. get up to $800 off our latest 5g smartphones. >>> a group of senate republicans unveiling a counter proposal to president biden's $2.3 trillion infrastructure plan this is a five year, $568 billion package. puts money towards roads, bridges, broadband, public transit, but it does leave out things that senators

dani: what david solomon is saying will impact london workers as well.an saying, this is not good for our young employees, for productivity and mental health. the other side saying, we can save money and pull back on our real estate occupancy. one other things it david said, he called remote working an aberration saying it is something they will quickly correct. as of this week, when that blanket stay-at-home order was lifted in the u.k., london office workers were welcomed back. we do not have the figures on how many took him up on that offer. at the same time, someone said he wants people back in the office and is looking forward to welcoming them back sometime this year. then we get to the other, hsbc and santander, both have talked about it in their reports. the u.k. ceo says more flexible working, hbc are getting rid of some of their leases in the u.k., in london rather. send 10 there, taking up less office space than they have. it will take a wild to get out of those leases, but this will be a changing picture. anna: fast-changing picture. really i

when it comes to what these banks are seeing, goldman's david solomon wasn't making any promises. >> they have been careful and cautious about what they say about low demand. jp morgan said it was challenging. wells fargo said something similar. they also indicated that they expect that toward the second half, we should see a pickup as people prudently manage their finances. they start to spend again. that is the banks narrative. we can question that, we can question it by looking at j.p. morgan share price which would go down at the end of the day despite the quarter. there have been questions about exactly how much the demand is there versus how much banks are lending. shery: sally in new york. domestic bank interview with bank of america at 5 p.m. thursday new york. for now, let's turn to vonnie quinn with the first word headlines. vonnie: johnson & johnson's vaccine will remain on hold in the united states, saying more dated is needed before the decision can be made. it will hold for at least a week into the panel meets again. seven people ads. just adverse reactions from the tho

david solomon talked about it yesterday. >> the first quarter results underscore the ongoing strengthupportive environment in which we operated during quarter. we delivered the best performance in global markets in a decade driven by solid client activity across our platform and reinforced by last year's market share against. we maintained a resilient, highly liquid balance sheet as we continued to deploy our resources to support clients amid an evolving, dynamic market backdrop. dani: he said that there is a number that really sticks out, a quarter of trading that was able to beat any other quarter during the past decade. anna: what about the bank earnings yet to come then? we are going to be hearing from bank of america and citi today. what should we be watching for? dani: i think they have such a high bar to meet because the thought had been for this quarter there is no way they can beat what happened last year in march during the volatility. banks have been able to do that support. citigroup, bank of america, can they do the same? citi has a lot of currency trading and the results

it was kind of interesting thought really, because that may well be why you see folks like david solomons going to bring everyone back in the office. the recognition that some of the kinds of work right now, i think the analysts are getting the negative side of it, are not able to get the camaraderie or sort of the social aspect that would at least help you alleviate it slightly. you are right. a lot of people have said it. matt: definitely. it's a problem especially highlighted by the pandemic. tom metcalf covering this for us for our banking team. thanks very much. this is bloomberg. ♪ it's moving day. and while her friends are doing the heavy lifting, jess is busy moving her xfinity internet and tv services. it only takes about a minute. wait, a minute? but what have you been doing for the last two hours? ...delegating? oh, good one. move your xfinity services without breaking a sweat. xfinity makes moving easy. go online to transfer your services in about a minute. get started today. ♪ matt: welcome back "bloomberg markets: european open." we are a half hour into the session right no

david you. never do this you don't play the market request w the fetch. the farfetch >> to your point. >> -- high end passion we like it >> so your point solomon, ceo goldman sachs was on with "squawk box" can this morning. take a listen. goldman did exactly what you said they saw signs of trouble and they blew it out >> this is not the first time this has happened. and it is certainly not going to be the last. we'll certainly see this again from my perspective. our risk controls worked well. we identified risk early on. we took prompt corrective action to lower our risk, according to the contract we have with the client and i can't really speak to what other banks are done and how they have handled the situation, but i'm very pleased with the way our team handled it. >> there is that culture you were talking about now, it is interesting, morgan stanley also is interesting here they also got, obviously -- by the way when you add up these blocks it does get to system enormous number. you have to be careful no double counting but enormous number how archegos had. how this was allowed continues to be a key question morgan stanley was a lead on share offering
