We began 29 00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:41,920 Speaker 4: with a very American investment bank here in the US, 30 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:44,800 Speaker 4: based from the Lehman acquisition of Parklays, and we've grown 31 00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:46,959 Speaker 4: in Europe. We wanted to put more emphasis in Europe 32 00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 4: as well. 33 00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:51,080 Speaker 2: Venkata, Christian, head of one of the head of the 34 00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 2: world's largest non US investment bank, has been trying to 35 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,960 Speaker 2: stem an exodus of talent in recent weeks as rivals 36 00:01:57,960 --> 00:01:59,640 Speaker 2: try to poach deal makers. 37 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,960 Speaker 1: Goldman Sachs has told Bloomberg that the bank is ending 38 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 1: its relationship with od Asset Management. The news comes as 39 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:10,280 Speaker 1: the Hedge Fund grapples with the complexities of divorcing itself 40 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:14,320 Speaker 1: from its founder. Speaking exclusively to our editor at large, 41 00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:18,880 Speaker 1: Farcine Laqua, Goldman Sachs International CEO Richard Nodi had this 42 00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:20,239 Speaker 1: to say on the matter. 43 00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:24,680 Speaker 5: We hold ourselves to extremely high standards and we expect 44 00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 5: the same of our client base. And that's how we 45 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:29,160 Speaker 5: work together in partnership. And so you know, when new 46 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 5: information comes to light in any situation, we'd obviously reviewed 47 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:37,600 Speaker 5: and reviewed quickly and then take the appropriate action. 48 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:41,559 Speaker 6: So what you severed tires or are you still contemplating 49 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 6: what happens next. 50 00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:48,360 Speaker 5: We're in the process of moving away from their business. 51 00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 1: Richard Node and his comments come after the FT reported 52 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 1: on a number of allegations of sexual assault against od 53 00:02:56,600 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 1: Asset Management founder Crispin od Od himself denies all the 54 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 1: allegations against him. 55 00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 2: UK based chip designer Armors and talks with Intel to 56 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:10,080 Speaker 2: anchor its New York initial public offering. Arm which is 57 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 2: owned by SoftBank, is looking to raise as much as 58 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 2: ten billion dollars in what will be one of the 59 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 2: largest IPOs this year. If the talks succeed, Intel will 60 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 2: be included in arms IPO prospectus ahead of the listing. 61 00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:26,840 Speaker 1: Now we are waiting, of course, the USCPI figure. Bond 62 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:30,800 Speaker 1: traders are underestimating the drop in inflation ahead of today's 63 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 1: USCPI numbers. That is the view of the City Banks. 64 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:37,840 Speaker 1: Threshes ragaev Datla he expects a miss to the downside 65 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:40,960 Speaker 1: as the market comes off two straight lower than forecast. 66 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:46,400 Speaker 1: Prints Ola Sonola, Fitch Ratings head of US Regional Economics, 67 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 1: says that things are heading in the right direction. 68 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 7: The trend line is certainly positive. I think when you 69 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 7: look at shelter inflation, which is the biggest component in 70 00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 7: terms of CPI, the expectation is that that would trend 71 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:02,040 Speaker 7: down over the coming months because market rates have actually 72 00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 7: came down and market rates tend to lead that CPI component. 73 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 1: Ulu Sonola speaking to US Then now Tuesday CPI report 74 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 1: comes just a day before the Fed's policy decision, with 75 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:18,080 Speaker 1: traders wagering that officials will hold interest rates steady. 76 00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:21,160 Speaker 2: The European Union is planning to launch a formal antitrust 77 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:24,359 Speaker 2: complaint into Google's two hundred and twenty five billion ad 78 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:27,480 Speaker 2: tech business. It could pave the way for massive fines 79 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:29,919 Speaker 2: for parents, Alpha Brat and strike at the heart of 80 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:33,839 Speaker 2: the advertising technology that drives most of the tech giants revenue. 81 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 2: Bloomberg has learned that the list of charges could be 82 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:40,040 Speaker 2: announced as soon as Wednesday. The tech giant has already 83 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:43,359 Speaker 2: been fined eight point six billion dollars by the EU 84 00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 2: around how it uses its dominant position in online advertising. 85 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:52,279 Speaker 1: A government plan to bring in voluntary price caps on 86 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:55,240 Speaker 1: food in Britain has been rubbished by one of the 87 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:59,600 Speaker 1: country's most experienced retailers. Archie Normant, the chairman of Marks 88 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,560 Speaker 1: and Space, said didn't mince his words when we asked 89 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:05,400 Speaker 1: him about the idea here on Day Break Europe. 90 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:09,279 Speaker 8: I mean, dear, oh dear. I've heard some hair brand 91 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 8: ideas come out of the political world in time, and 92 00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:14,760 Speaker 8: that's one of them. Central foods are coming down in price. 93 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:17,760 Speaker 8: The market is taking them down. They're coming up down 94 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:20,599 Speaker 8: price as we speak. And we all know price caps 95 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:22,680 Speaker 8: don't work anyway. We learned that, and dad would he. 96 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 1: Norman also criticized the UK's Competition and Markets Authority. He 97 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:31,719 Speaker 1: told us that the CMA, which is investigating the price 98 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:36,680 Speaker 1: of groceries quote, hasn't got anything right for about three decades. 99 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:38,360 Speaker 1: And those are our top stories. 100 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:40,400 Speaker 2: I'm sure a nonether of us have been accused of 101 00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:44,000 Speaker 2: getting nothing right in the past three decades. Sounds like 102 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:45,480 Speaker 2: a complaint for a teenage child. 103 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:48,039 Speaker 1: Well, no, listen, I think it's quite serious. You know 104 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:51,599 Speaker 1: the issues around I mean, listen, this is the biggest 105 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 1: regulator in the UK right now, and the fact that 106 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:57,279 Speaker 1: it doesn't have the confidence of somebody as significant as Norman, 107 00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:01,599 Speaker 1: I think is pretty telling. And yeah, that it hasn't 108 00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 1: been right for so long. It's about, you know, the 109 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 1: money that goes into this kind of regulatory oversight, the 110 00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:08,160 Speaker 1: backing that it has. 111 00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:11,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I'm Another story that caught my eye this 112 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:15,599 Speaker 2: morning was to do with angry air passengers. I mean, 113 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 2: I travel a lot, and I can definitely see signs 114 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:21,919 Speaker 2: of what we're reporting on. Here is this warning from 115 00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:25,880 Speaker 2: the International Air Transport Association that there's been a massive 116 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:30,040 Speaker 2: jump in the number of air rage incidents for twenty 117 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 2: twenty two, so one disorderly incident report for every five 118 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:36,720 Speaker 2: hundred and sixty eight flights last year, So that is 119 00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:40,599 Speaker 2: a major increase from twenty twenty one as well. I 120 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:42,400 Speaker 2: mean some of the war high profile ones. I think 121 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,600 Speaker 2: people have probably heard of that there was this incident 122 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:47,159 Speaker 2: of somebody opening an aircraft door in an Asiana flight. 123 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:50,640 Speaker 2: But I mean there's the interesting kind of pointing at 124 00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:52,760 Speaker 2: about the psychology of how people are feeling about flying 125 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 2: after the pandemic. Anyone who did fly over those two 126 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 2: years used to empty aeroplanes used to things being a 127 00:06:57,400 --> 00:06:58,039 Speaker 2: little bit different. 128 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:00,200 Speaker 1: I think that's it. You see the line that ill 129 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:03,159 Speaker 1: between this story, it's a bit like your child common 130 00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:05,839 Speaker 1: It makes me think about all of the reporting that 131 00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 1: there's been, certainly in the UK, around the poor behavior 132 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:11,000 Speaker 1: of children in schools. You know the fact that that 133 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 1: two year, three year hiatus of social interaction has had 134 00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 1: perhaps a more deep seated impact on people socializing. I 135 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:21,680 Speaker 1: don't know if that's the link that I well. 136 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:25,440 Speaker 2: A warning anyway from my ata if you're traveling this summer, 137 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:28,920 Speaker 2: be nice, good advice, good advice for life in general. 138 00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 1: Children and adults. 139 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:33,600 Speaker 2: Indeed, yes, people of all ages, be a good airline 140 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 2: passenger this summer. 141 00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:37,800 Speaker 1: Okay, let's move on and talk about one of our 142 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 1: key interviews this morning. The CEO of Berkley cs VN 143 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:44,720 Speaker 1: Kata Krishnan says that they've lost more top bankers than 144 00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 1: usual because of the reshuffle at the bank. Van Kata 145 00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:51,680 Speaker 1: Krishnan has been speaking to Bloomberg's David Weston. 146 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:54,600 Speaker 4: First of all, we are losing a few investment bankers, 147 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:58,360 Speaker 4: but not that much more than what is normal annual turnover. 148 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:01,120 Speaker 4: I mean, this is the period in the first few 149 00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:04,280 Speaker 4: months of the second quarter when people have been paid 150 00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 4: their bonuses, and there's a little bit of musical chairs. 151 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:09,520 Speaker 4: As you know, it's a time owner tradition in this industry. 152 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 4: We made a management change in our investment bank. We 153 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:16,960 Speaker 4: spend a lot of time last year thinking about what 154 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:21,760 Speaker 4: we expected the banking landscape to be over the next decade. 155 00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:25,880 Speaker 4: So what you've seen is rising interest rates, changing business models, 156 00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:29,360 Speaker 4: the importance of sectors that are fairly new to the economy, 157 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:35,240 Speaker 4: not just technology, but sustainability, mobility, climate, tech. And then 158 00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 4: there is just the different players and the importance of 159 00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:41,680 Speaker 4: the players in the banking market. The private equity groups 160 00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:44,480 Speaker 4: have been very large, Private credit funds are becoming bigger. 161 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:49,080 Speaker 4: They're slightly disintermediating what banks are doing. And we as 162 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:52,400 Speaker 4: we've began with a very American investment bank here in 163 00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:55,200 Speaker 4: the US based from the Lehman acquisition of Barclays, and 164 00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:57,439 Speaker 4: we've grown in Europe. We wanted to put more emphasis 165 00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:00,440 Speaker 4: in Europe as well. So you bring it all together 166 00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:04,840 Speaker 4: and you're talking about us thinking about the next generation 167 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 4: of leadership of the investment bank, building on our strends 168 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 4: in debt capital markets, but growing in equities growing in 169 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:13,440 Speaker 4: m and A growing in Europe. And when you do 170 00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:16,240 Speaker 4: that kind of organizational change sometimes it has impacts. 171 00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:18,599 Speaker 9: Well, you suggested something I was curious about. It is 172 00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:21,800 Speaker 9: there a strategic shift in emphasis in the Investment Bank 173 00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 9: a little bit away from United States and toward Europe. Because, 174 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:26,760 Speaker 9: as I recall, your two co heads before were based 175 00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 9: in the United States. The two coheads now are going 176 00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:29,320 Speaker 9: to base in Europe. 177 00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:31,839 Speaker 4: One is in Europe and one is here in the US. 178 00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 4: So it's not a shift so much as an expansion. 179 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 4: It is to try to give more attention to Europe. 180 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:43,040 Speaker 4: Relatively speaking, the US remains critically important to US and 181 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:45,959 Speaker 4: the US businesses or some things, especially in the dead 182 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:48,959 Speaker 4: capital markets, where we are absolutely leading and we want 183 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:50,400 Speaker 4: to maintain that position. 184 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:52,719 Speaker 9: Absolutely in debt couple of markets. What about equity? Are 185 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 9: you shifting toward equity? 186 00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:56,880 Speaker 4: We are trying to expand and grow our business in 187 00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:58,479 Speaker 4: both equities and advisory. 188 00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:01,120 Speaker 9: Given your insight into the business in the United States, 189 00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 9: what do you make of the economy and the consumer 190 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:05,680 Speaker 9: I mean, are you seeing delinquency's rise? Are you seeing 191 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:06,600 Speaker 9: some tightening your credit? 192 00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:11,440 Speaker 4: No, so we're seeing just on the margins some increase 193 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:16,200 Speaker 4: in delinquencies. We're seeing people continuing to economize. We see 194 00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 4: that in the UK as well as in the US. 195 00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:21,520 Speaker 4: The most important thing is that employment is holding up, 196 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:25,439 Speaker 4: and employment is one of the most important determinants of 197 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:26,959 Speaker 4: individual credit behavior. 198 00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:29,040 Speaker 9: There's been a little bit of the shaking up, if 199 00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 9: I could put it that way, in the US banking system, 200 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 9: with some of the regional banks, starting with Silicon Valley Bank. 201 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:35,680 Speaker 9: What do you make of that situation? More broadly, do 202 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 9: you expect more bank failures in the United States? 203 00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:42,440 Speaker 4: I'm not sure I expect failures. What I expect is 204 00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 4: concerns and banks cleaning up their act if you like. 205 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:49,319 Speaker 4: So banks which have asset liability problems will go get 206 00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:51,560 Speaker 4: ahead of it. They will try to sell assets. I 207 00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 4: think the net effect of it will be a curtailment 208 00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 4: or diminishment of lending, especially in Middle America where the 209 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:01,319 Speaker 4: regional banks have have a footprint. 210 00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:03,240 Speaker 9: Are you tightening your credit standards right now? 211 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:06,760 Speaker 4: So the big banks, I think all tightened our wholesale 212 00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:10,880 Speaker 4: credit standards through the leverage finance business last year. And 213 00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:14,240 Speaker 4: you know there were many large loans, some didn't get placed, 214 00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 4: and so the wholesale banks with rising rates, tightened their 215 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:21,560 Speaker 4: credit standards. The retail standards, we have tightened it, but 216 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:24,840 Speaker 4: they are marginally tighter than they were said during COVID. 217 00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:27,920 Speaker 4: I think what you're going to see in the regional 218 00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 4: banks is a tightening of credit standards in areas like 219 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:34,760 Speaker 4: commercial real estate, small business lending, the things that they do. 220 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 9: So you said the magic words commercial real estate. How 221 00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:39,160 Speaker 9: exposed is Barclay commercial real estate? 222 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,880 Speaker 4: First of all, not very much. We do some direct 223 00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:45,600 Speaker 4: lending in the UK, but it's small and in the 224 00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:49,959 Speaker 4: US we mostly finance vehicles or portfolios of commercial real 225 00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:56,120 Speaker 4: estate assets, but we have adequate protection in terms of 226 00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:58,840 Speaker 4: first loss protections and loan to values. 227 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:04,199 Speaker 1: So that was the Berkley ceocs ven Kata Christian there 228 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:07,679 Speaker 1: speaking to Bloomberg's David Weston about the states of well 229 00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:12,359 Speaker 1: the business lending and also it's a top flight employees. 230 00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 2: Now, could today's US CPI reading change the Federal Reserve 231 00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:20,439 Speaker 2: decision tomorrow? Bloomberg Economics expecting to see a slow down 232 00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:22,400 Speaker 2: in the year on your reading from May from four 233 00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:25,760 Speaker 2: point nine percent in April to four percent in May. 234 00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:28,720 Speaker 2: For the headline figure, the core CPI numbers is expected 235 00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:31,560 Speaker 2: to slow to five point two percent. Our market supporter, 236 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:35,080 Speaker 2: Valery title is here with more on this story. Does 237 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:36,120 Speaker 2: this CPI print matter? 238 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:36,520 Speaker 3: Valery? 239 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:40,199 Speaker 6: Look, Stephen, That is a good question, because that's currently 240 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:41,360 Speaker 6: what the market is debating. 241 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:43,640 Speaker 10: You really have two camps out there. 242 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:46,840 Speaker 6: You have people who say the FED has really over 243 00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:48,080 Speaker 6: telegraphed this pause. 244 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 10: The data has come in hot all month. 245 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:52,720 Speaker 6: Why would they change their mind with twenty four hours 246 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:55,440 Speaker 6: to go until their FED decision? The CPI print doesn't 247 00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:58,000 Speaker 6: matter today. The Fed's going to pause anyway. And then 248 00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 6: you have another camp which says, look, the Fed, and 249 00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:05,720 Speaker 6: especially Powell has told us they're extremely data dependent, why 250 00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:08,400 Speaker 6: would they overlook this CPI print even though it's close 251 00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:10,840 Speaker 6: to their decision. Yes, it's still time for them to 252 00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:14,320 Speaker 6: change their mind. That a hot core print today could 253 00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:17,280 Speaker 6: shift the dial on where June's priced. And you know, 254 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:19,960 Speaker 6: we get to a moment today this is kind of 255 00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:22,920 Speaker 6: the disaster scenario for the market that CPI comes in 256 00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:24,920 Speaker 6: a bit hot, especially that core number, and we get 257 00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:27,520 Speaker 6: to a moment today where the market freezes with June 258 00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:30,280 Speaker 6: fifty to fifty priced with less than twenty four hours 259 00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:32,880 Speaker 6: to go, and we sit here and panic and wait 260 00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:34,920 Speaker 6: for some sort of signal from the FED on which 261 00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:35,719 Speaker 6: way it's going to be. 262 00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:38,800 Speaker 1: Hang on, how high is the baff for that to happen? 263 00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:42,720 Speaker 6: Okay, So the people who think that the Fed's gonna pause, 264 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,520 Speaker 6: no matter what they think, the bar is, you know, 265 00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:47,400 Speaker 6: the core month on month number has to come in 266 00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:50,880 Speaker 6: screamingly hot, like point eight versus a point four consensus, 267 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:53,880 Speaker 6: a big beat. Other people are saying, you know, it 268 00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:56,360 Speaker 6: could just come in slightly hot, and that would get 269 00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:59,559 Speaker 6: enough the market to start questioning this Fed pause because 270 00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:03,439 Speaker 6: in some way aren't they being intellectually inconsistent by saying 271 00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:07,720 Speaker 6: they're so data dependent yet almost instead of hiking in June, 272 00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:09,760 Speaker 6: they're just going to promise one in July. That's not 273 00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:12,319 Speaker 6: how central banks should work. The data is already lagged. 274 00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:15,360 Speaker 6: If they make a decision lagged based on that, that's 275 00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:16,800 Speaker 6: even more of a lag. 276 00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:18,680 Speaker 10: They should hike now if they know that they're going 277 00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:19,320 Speaker 10: to hike later. 278 00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:23,560 Speaker 2: So faugh Valerie's question of the day, how dependent is dependent? 279 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:28,520 Speaker 2: A word too? On the Chinese Central Bank decision today, 280 00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:31,560 Speaker 2: Valerie cutting its short term policy rate before more economic 281 00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 2: Do there more economic data there to you on Thursday? 282 00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:35,080 Speaker 10: Yeah? 283 00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 6: So this is This is funny. This is not the 284 00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:39,440 Speaker 6: rate that we expected them to touch first. This is 285 00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 6: the seven day repo rates. It's essentially the interbank lending 286 00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 6: rate the banks at which the rate at which banks 287 00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:48,120 Speaker 6: lend to each other short term. But the key for 288 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:51,840 Speaker 6: the markets here is this just is another signal that 289 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:55,560 Speaker 6: the China is about to really turn into an easing cycle. 290 00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:58,120 Speaker 10: We know that they set a bigger rate. 291 00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:02,239 Speaker 6: On Thursday, that's their one year MLS free Bloomberg Economics 292 00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:04,360 Speaker 6: now thinks that that's a done deal, that that rate 293 00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:06,640 Speaker 6: is going to be cut given this this move overnight, 294 00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:09,240 Speaker 6: so a bit symbolic. It's not the rate we thought, 295 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:10,880 Speaker 6: it's not the one that's a big deal, but it 296 00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:12,080 Speaker 6: just means there's more to come. 297 00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, I mean I suppose a lot of people 298 00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:17,320 Speaker 1: wondering whether it's just a reaction to the worse than 299 00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:20,560 Speaker 1: expected PI data out of China and whether yeah, more 300 00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:21,960 Speaker 1: maybe to come on Thursdays. 301 00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:23,760 Speaker 10: So that's that's the question mark. 302 00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:27,840 Speaker 6: And don't remember we also get the China activity data 303 00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:30,640 Speaker 6: on Thursday morning as well, so you know that could 304 00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:33,920 Speaker 6: confirm the downtrend two months in a row or throw 305 00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:36,440 Speaker 6: it into question. But they're already moving, and they're already easy, 306 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:38,960 Speaker 6: and that's a good signal to see. 307 00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:43,040 Speaker 2: This is Bloomberg Daybreak Europe, your morning brief on the 308 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:46,160 Speaker 2: stories making news from London to Wall Street and beyond. 309 00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:49,640 Speaker 1: Look for us on your podcast feed every morning, on Apple, 310 00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:52,480 Speaker 1: Spotify and anywhere else you get your podcasts. 311 00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:55,520 Speaker 2: You can also listen live each morning on London Dab Radio, 312 00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 2: the Bloomberg Business app, and Bloomberg dot Com. 313 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:01,080 Speaker 1: Our flagship New York station is so available on your 314 00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 1: Amazon Alexa devices.
