WEBVTT - 8am-9am ET: Gartman & Brown

0:00:03.440 --> 0:00:06.800
<v Speaker 1>This is Bloomberg Surveillance. We want to give that credit.

0:00:06.880 --> 0:00:09.080
<v Speaker 1>They have come a long way from where they were

0:00:09.119 --> 0:00:11.400
<v Speaker 1>in the yearly nineties when they didn't even communicate anything

0:00:11.440 --> 0:00:15.480
<v Speaker 1>to the market. Begin remains the most important single occasion currency,

0:00:15.680 --> 0:00:18.800
<v Speaker 1>that together with Aussie which I think is the proxy

0:00:18.960 --> 0:00:21.880
<v Speaker 1>for all of Asia's growth ultimately, and we still are

0:00:21.880 --> 0:00:23.680
<v Speaker 1>going to have a crisis at some point. It'll be

0:00:23.720 --> 0:00:25.480
<v Speaker 1>a big one. And that's where the new tools and

0:00:25.520 --> 0:00:28.000
<v Speaker 1>dot Frank the title to the Resolution Authority, that's where

0:00:28.040 --> 0:00:31.240
<v Speaker 1>they come in. Bloomberg Surveillance your link to the world

<v Speaker 1>love to have Dennis Gartment on the the hate me.

0:00:56.320 --> 0:00:58.880
<v Speaker 1>The hate mail meter lights up like a like a

0:00:59.000 --> 0:01:03.600
<v Speaker 1>candle when we have Gartment on this is well, they

0:01:03.640 --> 0:01:06.360
<v Speaker 1>love Dennis, they hate me, right we'll get Dennis Gartman

0:01:06.440 --> 0:01:10.560

0:01:31.120 --> 0:01:33.200
<v Speaker 1>Gartman joins us out. Dennis, I want to put this

0:01:33.680 --> 0:01:37.759
<v Speaker 1>in the in the context of the title of Larry

0:01:37.760 --> 0:01:40.360
<v Speaker 1>Lindsay's new book, You Give It a Massive Rave Review,

0:01:40.760 --> 0:01:45.600
<v Speaker 1>Conspiracies of the ruling Class. Mario Draggy is part of

0:01:45.600 --> 0:01:51.160
<v Speaker 1>the ruling class. What's his conspiracy to jump start his Europe?

0:01:53.120 --> 0:01:57.160
<v Speaker 1>He has leaked full hog into into the market this morning.

0:01:57.640 --> 0:02:00.320
<v Speaker 1>In case people haven't heard yet, what they have done

0:02:00.400 --> 0:02:03.760
<v Speaker 1>in Europe this morning is cut all three of the

0:02:03.760 --> 0:02:07.560
<v Speaker 1>base rates in UH by the ECB. More importantly, have

0:02:07.760 --> 0:02:14.080
<v Speaker 1>raised the sixty billion euro uh quantitative easing each month

0:02:14.120 --> 0:02:17.920
<v Speaker 1>to eighty billion, And I think probably most importantly, have

0:02:18.320 --> 0:02:21.880
<v Speaker 1>allowed the purchases of corporate debt for the simple reason

0:02:21.880 --> 0:02:24.519
<v Speaker 1>that they're running out of sovereign debt that they can buy,

0:02:24.600 --> 0:02:27.240
<v Speaker 1>and they have no choice but to expand reserves by

0:02:27.280 --> 0:02:30.840
<v Speaker 1>buying corporate debt. The Euro is getting slammed as we talk,

0:02:31.280 --> 0:02:35.040
<v Speaker 1>treadty five right now, down from one o nine actually

0:02:35.080 --> 0:02:37.959
<v Speaker 1>trading one tena one time earlier. This found a bid,

0:02:38.040 --> 0:02:40.840
<v Speaker 1>I mean, is where we're going to? Dennis and Mike

0:02:40.919 --> 0:02:43.360
<v Speaker 1>McKee might jump in here with Mr Gartman. Neil Dutta

0:02:43.480 --> 0:02:46.960
<v Speaker 1>just publishes March and April are a no go for

0:02:47.040 --> 0:02:50.480
<v Speaker 1>the US Central Bank, while June is a live possibility.

0:02:50.560 --> 0:02:55.200
<v Speaker 1>Michael Dennis. The real question is obviously Mario dragging went

0:02:55.639 --> 0:02:59.080
<v Speaker 1>uh full Monty as Brunelo Rosa said, or kitchen sink

0:02:59.160 --> 0:03:02.080
<v Speaker 1>as Jamie McGee or and Jeff Black have both tweeted

0:03:02.120 --> 0:03:05.240
<v Speaker 1>this morning. So you get this reaction in the markets,

0:03:05.280 --> 0:03:07.560
<v Speaker 1>But does it last? Is there going to be enough

0:03:07.600 --> 0:03:09.680
<v Speaker 1>stimulus so the market is going to see enough in

0:03:09.720 --> 0:03:13.639
<v Speaker 1>the package over the next couple of weeks to continue

0:03:13.680 --> 0:03:17.120
<v Speaker 1>pushing down on the Euro. Yes, of course they will.

0:03:17.360 --> 0:03:19.359
<v Speaker 1>I think Joggy has made it abundantly clear if this

0:03:19.440 --> 0:03:21.960
<v Speaker 1>is not the last move he's going to make. He

0:03:22.040 --> 0:03:25.440
<v Speaker 1>has thrown in completely with those who are expansionary, I

0:03:25.480 --> 0:03:30.000
<v Speaker 1>think justifiably. So you still have unemployment rates among youths

0:03:30.040 --> 0:03:33.280
<v Speaker 1>in Spain, Italy, across all of Europe. I don't think

0:03:33.280 --> 0:03:35.080
<v Speaker 1>he had any choice. I think he's done exactly what

0:03:35.120 --> 0:03:37.560
<v Speaker 1>he needed to do. It will be, or should be,

0:03:37.680 --> 0:03:41.000
<v Speaker 1>highly inflationary over a period of time, but the deflationary

0:03:41.040 --> 0:03:43.680
<v Speaker 1>forces are still so extant that he had no choice

0:03:43.960 --> 0:03:46.080
<v Speaker 1>other than to go full monthy. I think he's done

0:03:46.080 --> 0:03:48.880
<v Speaker 1>the right thing, as others may argue, but it will

0:03:48.920 --> 0:03:51.720
<v Speaker 1>continue to be I think manifestly bears of the euro

0:03:52.240 --> 0:03:56.560
<v Speaker 1>par is on its way. Do we see contraction in

0:03:56.720 --> 0:04:00.280
<v Speaker 1>spreads among the Eurozone countries? Is this going to reach

0:04:00.280 --> 0:04:05.880
<v Speaker 1>out to the periphery? As to that that question, I'm

0:04:05.880 --> 0:04:09.200
<v Speaker 1>not quite sure. I understand, well, a lot of what

0:04:09.240 --> 0:04:12.640
<v Speaker 1>the ECB has done hasn't helped the peripheral countries in

0:04:12.680 --> 0:04:17.119
<v Speaker 1>the year Zone as much because their rates are higher. Yes, okay,

0:04:17.120 --> 0:04:19.880
<v Speaker 1>I understand. Yeah, of course it should narrow those spreads.

0:04:19.880 --> 0:04:21.960
<v Speaker 1>It has to, and it it really would be mathematically

0:04:22.000 --> 0:04:25.240
<v Speaker 1>impossible to do otherwise. So the answer is, yes, it will.

0:04:25.720 --> 0:04:27.680
<v Speaker 1>I think it is going to be highly inflationary. I

0:04:27.760 --> 0:04:29.880
<v Speaker 1>think is what he should have done. I'm I'm I'm

0:04:29.920 --> 0:04:32.040
<v Speaker 1>full in with what he's done today. They those on

0:04:32.120 --> 0:04:34.240
<v Speaker 1>the far light may take me to tap board, but

0:04:34.360 --> 0:04:36.080
<v Speaker 1>I don't think you had any Okay, So Dennis, you

0:04:36.120 --> 0:04:38.280
<v Speaker 1>go down to your North Carolina state, you speak to

0:04:38.320 --> 0:04:41.760
<v Speaker 1>their economics honors program at the Pool Management Hall and

0:04:41.800 --> 0:04:44.720
<v Speaker 1>all that. None of this is in the textbooks you are,

0:04:44.800 --> 0:04:49.520
<v Speaker 1>Michael McKee, study none of it. It is que I'm sorry, folks,

0:04:49.640 --> 0:04:53.320
<v Speaker 1>Rubini absolutely nailed this. And I'm not even gonna pretend

0:04:53.320 --> 0:04:56.920
<v Speaker 1>to fake. Is a wonderful accent. Quee one, que two?

0:04:57.200 --> 0:05:00.760
<v Speaker 1>Where the hell are we in the count of Quee's this?

0:05:00.760 --> 0:05:03.080
<v Speaker 1>This is three. We're going to four, We'll go to twelve,

0:05:03.120 --> 0:05:05.880
<v Speaker 1>We'll go to fourteen. What is the price of that?

0:05:05.920 --> 0:05:07.760
<v Speaker 1>I knew you were gonna say that. What's the price

0:05:07.800 --> 0:05:11.040
<v Speaker 1>of that? Mr? I'm not sure. I don't know. They

0:05:11.120 --> 0:05:14.520
<v Speaker 1>hope it shall be an inflation. Everybody wants to see

0:05:14.760 --> 0:05:17.800
<v Speaker 1>an inflation of two or more, whether it's the ECB,

0:05:17.960 --> 0:05:22.599
<v Speaker 1>whether it's the Bank of Japan, whether it's the nobody's

0:05:22.640 --> 0:05:25.120
<v Speaker 1>getting in Dennis. I got Olivia Blanchard on the program

0:05:25.120 --> 0:05:27.880
<v Speaker 1>this morning saying, look, there's no fire in house. There

0:05:28.120 --> 0:05:32.120
<v Speaker 1>is economic growth. There is there is real economy, signs

0:05:32.120 --> 0:05:35.640
<v Speaker 1>of good in the US and in Europe. What's the

0:05:36.080 --> 0:05:40.400
<v Speaker 1>y here to jump start the macro position other than

0:05:40.440 --> 0:05:44.400
<v Speaker 1>the jump started for the conspiracy of the ruling class. Well,

0:05:44.440 --> 0:05:46.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm not sure that I agree that there that there

0:05:46.480 --> 0:05:49.120
<v Speaker 1>are signs in Europe of economic strength. There are signs

0:05:49.120 --> 0:05:54.240
<v Speaker 1>in the United States, perhaps of modest, slow, laborious one

0:05:54.320 --> 0:05:56.800
<v Speaker 1>to two GDP growth, But I'm not sure that I

0:05:56.800 --> 0:05:59.080
<v Speaker 1>see the same things in Europe. And I think that

0:05:59.200 --> 0:06:02.159
<v Speaker 1>drug has Actus really done the correct thing. If you

0:06:02.200 --> 0:06:04.919
<v Speaker 1>look at the unemployment rates that exist, especially among the

0:06:04.960 --> 0:06:08.960
<v Speaker 1>youth in in in in Europe, there is an ample

0:06:09.040 --> 0:06:12.000
<v Speaker 1>supply of of of labor to be gotten. There is

0:06:12.120 --> 0:06:16.680
<v Speaker 1>no inflation to be found. I think he had no choice. Now,

0:06:17.279 --> 0:06:20.039
<v Speaker 1>he had no choice. He did the right thing. It

0:06:20.200 --> 0:06:24.160
<v Speaker 1>is affecting markets, but is it going to produce growth

0:06:24.240 --> 0:06:28.920
<v Speaker 1>and inflation? Will it work? That's another question for another time.

0:06:28.960 --> 0:06:31.839
<v Speaker 1>Hasn't it diet? Who one would hope that it works? Certainly,

0:06:31.880 --> 0:06:35.000
<v Speaker 1>he hopes that it works. Certainly everybody expects that it

0:06:35.040 --> 0:06:38.320
<v Speaker 1>should engender in inflation at some point in the future. Certainly,

0:06:38.440 --> 0:06:42.240
<v Speaker 1>most certainly most economists would suspect that that kind of

0:06:42.279 --> 0:06:45.400
<v Speaker 1>helicopter drop of money will result in some sort of

0:06:45.400 --> 0:06:48.960
<v Speaker 1>economic growth. Time only shall tell. But could he should he?

0:06:49.440 --> 0:06:52.080
<v Speaker 1>Let's let's do what the lawyers say and go reductive

0:06:52.120 --> 0:06:54.479
<v Speaker 1>out absurdum, let's go the other direction. Should he have

0:06:54.560 --> 0:06:57.840
<v Speaker 1>tightened monetary policy? Well, of course not. His only course

0:06:57.880 --> 0:06:59.840
<v Speaker 1>of action was to do what he's done today. And

0:07:00.040 --> 0:07:02.800
<v Speaker 1>this is just this is que three on its way

0:07:02.839 --> 0:07:05.400
<v Speaker 1>to QUEI fourteen. Whether we like it or not, that's

0:07:05.440 --> 0:07:07.680
<v Speaker 1>the reality, and as traders, that's how we have to deal.

0:07:07.920 --> 0:07:12.640
<v Speaker 1>Does this make you long of stocks? You really have

0:07:12.760 --> 0:07:14.800
<v Speaker 1>no choice. This this this should have to make you

0:07:14.840 --> 0:07:17.000
<v Speaker 1>long of stocks. What it does make me is short

0:07:17.040 --> 0:07:20.040
<v Speaker 1>of the euro and long of gold. That that that I,

0:07:21.000 --> 0:07:23.520
<v Speaker 1>without equivocation, is where I wish to be. Should it

0:07:23.640 --> 0:07:26.280
<v Speaker 1>make you long of stocks, you really do. Clearly you

0:07:26.360 --> 0:07:28.520
<v Speaker 1>don't wish to be short of them in this environment,

0:07:28.840 --> 0:07:33.120
<v Speaker 1>and probably you should be long with them. I can't

0:07:33.120 --> 0:07:36.080
<v Speaker 1>imagine doing Gartman's job or anybody like Gartman right now.

0:07:36.280 --> 0:07:40.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm figuring out so quickly what it means. Um at

0:07:40.600 --> 0:07:43.800
<v Speaker 1>this point, what does it mean in other parts of

0:07:43.840 --> 0:07:46.840
<v Speaker 1>the world. I think it means that the bank in

0:07:46.960 --> 0:07:49.200
<v Speaker 1>Japan has has no choice but to follow up the

0:07:49.200 --> 0:07:52.120
<v Speaker 1>bank exactly he has has done. They don't have any choice.

0:07:52.200 --> 0:07:54.600
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it's a quey war almost. I mean, what

0:07:55.000 --> 0:07:57.480
<v Speaker 1>is the correlation of our banks right now? They've all

0:07:57.480 --> 0:08:00.600
<v Speaker 1>they're all I'm sorry, every bank is reacting off every

0:08:00.600 --> 0:08:04.240
<v Speaker 1>other one. Right, Yes, maybe maybe it is a problem

0:08:04.280 --> 0:08:08.920
<v Speaker 1>of great communications. In the twenty five years ago when

0:08:08.960 --> 0:08:12.480
<v Speaker 1>I first, when I had begun to get somewhat smart

0:08:12.520 --> 0:08:15.440
<v Speaker 1>in this business, having started forty years ago, even then

0:08:15.640 --> 0:08:17.880
<v Speaker 1>you would not have known what the ECB had done

0:08:17.880 --> 0:08:20.880
<v Speaker 1>for several days. Now we have to make decisions as

0:08:20.880 --> 0:08:22.600
<v Speaker 1>to what the ECB has done in the course of

0:08:22.680 --> 0:08:24.760
<v Speaker 1>ten minutes and decide what it means for the next

0:08:24.840 --> 0:08:27.960
<v Speaker 1>four months. The best I can say is drawing upon history.

0:08:28.360 --> 0:08:31.280
<v Speaker 1>What they've done today is just the first another step

0:08:31.320 --> 0:08:33.920
<v Speaker 1>in a long step of pot processes. Just joining us

0:08:33.920 --> 0:08:36.120
<v Speaker 1>Tennis Gartment the garment letter, Dennis, you've only got you

0:08:36.200 --> 0:08:38.920
<v Speaker 1>for two blocks today, not three. Let me get to gold,

0:08:38.920 --> 0:08:41.920
<v Speaker 1>which is so important. You keep your gold view in

0:08:42.120 --> 0:08:46.000
<v Speaker 1>those currencies I mean Euro moving to parody that gives

0:08:46.000 --> 0:08:49.040
<v Speaker 1>you some support. Here update us on the Gartment gold call.

0:08:50.360 --> 0:08:52.959
<v Speaker 1>I have been long of gold and yen denominated terms

0:08:53.280 --> 0:08:55.800
<v Speaker 1>for over two years and it's been a wonderful trade.

0:08:56.160 --> 0:08:58.440
<v Speaker 1>If you have been long of golden dollar terms for

0:08:58.520 --> 0:09:01.920
<v Speaker 1>two years, uh year in the poorhouse, you don't feel

0:09:01.920 --> 0:09:04.720
<v Speaker 1>all that good. I've been long of gold in euro

0:09:04.800 --> 0:09:08.400
<v Speaker 1>denominated terms for about almost a year. That feels great.

0:09:08.600 --> 0:09:11.120
<v Speaker 1>It feels better this morning than it did before. But

0:09:11.200 --> 0:09:14.360
<v Speaker 1>it's making new highs. I see no reason to change.

0:09:14.520 --> 0:09:17.320
<v Speaker 1>The fundamentals have gotten stronger, not weaker, in the course

0:09:17.320 --> 0:09:20.040
<v Speaker 1>of the last ten minutes. The technicals are getting stronger,

0:09:20.120 --> 0:09:21.840
<v Speaker 1>not weaker, in the course of the last ten minutes.

0:09:22.040 --> 0:09:24.160
<v Speaker 1>And what I find interesting is few people wish to

0:09:24.240 --> 0:09:27.480
<v Speaker 1>join me on the same trade. What's the best trade

0:09:27.559 --> 0:09:32.360
<v Speaker 1>right now for you long gold in euro terms? As

0:09:32.400 --> 0:09:34.719
<v Speaker 1>of what's especially with what's happened in the last ten

0:09:34.720 --> 0:09:36.920
<v Speaker 1>minutes with the e c B, it's been a great position.

0:09:36.960 --> 0:09:39.120
<v Speaker 1>I see no reason to change. And the only thing

0:09:39.160 --> 0:09:41.360
<v Speaker 1>I wish to do is by is to do more.

0:09:41.920 --> 0:09:43.760
<v Speaker 1>I'll pay a lot more attention to what gold is

0:09:43.800 --> 0:09:47.119
<v Speaker 1>doing in dollar terms, uh perhaps in the next several

0:09:47.200 --> 0:09:49.000
<v Speaker 1>days and a half. In the past and if you

0:09:49.040 --> 0:09:51.640
<v Speaker 1>were able to get gold back about twelve fifty five

0:09:51.720 --> 0:09:54.560
<v Speaker 1>or so in dollars, my propensity to add to my

0:09:54.800 --> 0:09:58.160
<v Speaker 1>euro gold trade and my end gold trade becomes even stronger.

0:09:58.480 --> 0:10:00.600
<v Speaker 1>Let's come back with Dennis Garban right up, as we

0:10:00.640 --> 0:10:03.720
<v Speaker 1>are over market reaction off of major Mike. Did you

0:10:03.760 --> 0:10:07.880
<v Speaker 1>expect this? Uh, nobody expected him to do as much

0:10:07.920 --> 0:10:12.720
<v Speaker 1>as he did. Lots of kitchens sinc photographs out on

0:10:12.760 --> 0:10:15.360
<v Speaker 1>Twitter this morning. Yeah. Some people thought one, some people

0:10:15.360 --> 0:10:18.680
<v Speaker 1>thought the other. But instead he chooses the kitchen sink.

0:10:19.040 --> 0:10:21.520
<v Speaker 1>This is important, whether you agree or disagree. Dennis Gartman

0:10:21.600 --> 0:10:24.479
<v Speaker 1>will continue with us. We will have a spirited conversation

0:10:25.160 --> 0:10:28.679
<v Speaker 1>on the US market. Maybe will also touch on politics

0:10:28.800 --> 0:10:31.240
<v Speaker 1>as well once in a while. Mr Gartman writes about

0:10:31.360 --> 0:10:35.360
<v Speaker 1>US politics on the back end of his coveted note.

0:14:05.480 --> 0:14:07.600
<v Speaker 1>Denis Gartment with it. One of the great things about

0:14:07.640 --> 0:14:10.040
<v Speaker 1>Dennis Gartment. I've said this before. He's one of the

0:14:10.080 --> 0:14:14.640
<v Speaker 1>few people with the courage to actually publish his successes

0:14:14.679 --> 0:14:17.439
<v Speaker 1>and failures in the back of his newsletter. I love

0:14:17.440 --> 0:14:19.960
<v Speaker 1>to say that, Dennis, to bust your chops. But but

0:14:20.160 --> 0:14:24.040
<v Speaker 1>the thing that's cool here is you link technical with

0:14:24.200 --> 0:14:28.640
<v Speaker 1>fundamental with your economics as well. The arch question now

0:14:29.200 --> 0:14:33.440
<v Speaker 1>is commodity and oil bottom. Jeff de Graf was brilliant

0:14:33.520 --> 0:14:37.520
<v Speaker 1>yesterday talking about the search for catharsis I haven't seen it.

0:14:37.720 --> 0:14:41.280
<v Speaker 1>Do I need a cathartic event to scream oil bottom?

0:14:41.960 --> 0:14:45.520
<v Speaker 1>I think more than that, you need a non cathartic event.

0:14:45.560 --> 0:14:47.440
<v Speaker 1>I think you need the most boring thing of all.

0:14:47.720 --> 0:14:51.040
<v Speaker 1>I pay attention. I was taught years ago when I

0:14:51.080 --> 0:14:53.960
<v Speaker 1>began my career in the early seventies in the cotton market,

0:14:54.000 --> 0:14:58.320
<v Speaker 1>to watch the term watch now one commodity future trades

0:14:58.400 --> 0:15:01.680
<v Speaker 1>relative to another, and that knowledge of the term structure

0:15:01.720 --> 0:15:04.280
<v Speaker 1>really has carried over into the energy market. We have

0:15:04.480 --> 0:15:07.800
<v Speaker 1>watched as the carrying charge the contango. I hate to

0:15:07.800 --> 0:15:11.320
<v Speaker 1>get to esoteric, but the contango for the one year

0:15:11.360 --> 0:15:13.760
<v Speaker 1>had gone out as far as nine dollars per barrel

0:15:14.080 --> 0:15:16.680
<v Speaker 1>when spot w T I was trading around twenty six.

0:15:17.160 --> 0:15:20.960
<v Speaker 1>That contango has narrowed into about five dollars. Crude, for

0:15:21.040 --> 0:15:23.640
<v Speaker 1>lack of a better term, is less aggressive in bidding

0:15:23.680 --> 0:15:27.239
<v Speaker 1>to go into storage. It's telling you that informed money

0:15:27.360 --> 0:15:30.040
<v Speaker 1>has really said the lows have been put into crude.

0:15:30.400 --> 0:15:32.240
<v Speaker 1>Twenty six is not going to be taken out on

0:15:32.280 --> 0:15:34.960
<v Speaker 1>the down side. But at the same point, it's gonna

0:15:34.960 --> 0:15:37.600
<v Speaker 1>be very difficult to get the w t I SPOT

0:15:37.720 --> 0:15:41.479
<v Speaker 1>w t I above forty dollars because if the contango continues,

0:15:41.880 --> 0:15:44.720
<v Speaker 1>forty dollars in SPOT gives you about forty five dollars

0:15:44.720 --> 0:15:47.600
<v Speaker 1>out one year. And I'm telling you, at forty five dollars,

0:15:48.000 --> 0:15:50.080
<v Speaker 1>those down in the those up in the back, and

0:15:50.080 --> 0:15:52.800
<v Speaker 1>those down in Midland, Texas are making a lot of money.

0:15:52.800 --> 0:15:55.120
<v Speaker 1>They can hedge and be profitable. So it's gonna be

0:15:55.160 --> 0:15:58.360
<v Speaker 1>difficult to get SPOT crewede about forty dollars because I

0:15:58.400 --> 0:16:00.360
<v Speaker 1>got like eight ways to go with this, and we

0:16:00.400 --> 0:16:02.640
<v Speaker 1>don't have the time this morning. Who's our next guest?

0:16:02.680 --> 0:16:08.400
<v Speaker 1>Mario dragging Mario the press conference? A number of things

0:16:08.400 --> 0:16:10.680
<v Speaker 1>we've talked about a minute that he that have not

0:16:10.880 --> 0:16:13.760
<v Speaker 1>have been answered yet. Uh, Dennis, as long as we

0:16:13.800 --> 0:16:15.520
<v Speaker 1>have just a few moments with you, let me hit

0:16:15.560 --> 0:16:19.280
<v Speaker 1>on what you were saying about soft commodities El Nino fading.

0:16:19.400 --> 0:16:23.720
<v Speaker 1>There's talk of La Nina coming in, which seems to

0:16:24.520 --> 0:16:28.520
<v Speaker 1>historically raise the price of those commodities. Is it time

0:16:28.600 --> 0:16:31.720
<v Speaker 1>to invest? What do you want to do? I think

0:16:31.800 --> 0:16:35.200
<v Speaker 1>that the lows have been seen in the commodity markets generally,

0:16:35.200 --> 0:16:37.960
<v Speaker 1>whether it's in the soft whether it's in the grains,

0:16:38.360 --> 0:16:42.640
<v Speaker 1>whether it's in crude oil, um, and and perhaps maybe

0:16:42.720 --> 0:16:45.920
<v Speaker 1>even sort of kind of gently, maybe even in the

0:16:45.920 --> 0:16:49.320
<v Speaker 1>most barrish of all commodities, that gas. The era of

0:16:49.400 --> 0:16:51.680
<v Speaker 1>being or the age or the year or the two

0:16:51.760 --> 0:16:54.560
<v Speaker 1>years of being short of commodities is probably behind us.

0:16:54.960 --> 0:16:56.960
<v Speaker 1>And I think that the actions taken by the e

0:16:57.040 --> 0:17:01.120
<v Speaker 1>c B this morning simply promote the notion that commodity

0:17:01.120 --> 0:17:03.320
<v Speaker 1>prices are likely to be stronger and not weaker going

0:17:03.360 --> 0:17:05.879
<v Speaker 1>forward in the final time we've got with you. And

0:17:05.920 --> 0:17:08.760
<v Speaker 1>I say this with immense respect for Martin's wage. We

0:17:08.880 --> 0:17:14.160
<v Speaker 1>lost him weight man. You know Marty's wag. Don't fight

0:17:14.200 --> 0:17:17.440
<v Speaker 1>the Fed, don't fight the e c B, don't fight

0:17:17.480 --> 0:17:21.600
<v Speaker 1>the bles. Forget about the esoteric net gas short. What's

0:17:21.640 --> 0:17:27.159
<v Speaker 1>the gartment advice for people, basic people out there to

0:17:27.400 --> 0:17:32.880
<v Speaker 1>invest with these central banks as Marty's wage titans, as

0:17:32.920 --> 0:17:35.800
<v Speaker 1>long as the as long as the central bank wind

0:17:35.920 --> 0:17:38.040
<v Speaker 1>is at your back, and it is and they're not

0:17:38.080 --> 0:17:41.080
<v Speaker 1>going to stop anytime soon. You're better off being long

0:17:41.119 --> 0:17:43.320
<v Speaker 1>than you are being short. You're better off erring on

0:17:43.359 --> 0:17:45.399
<v Speaker 1>the side of being bullish than you are on the

0:17:45.440 --> 0:17:47.600
<v Speaker 1>side of being barished, and you're probably going to be

0:17:47.600 --> 0:17:51.560
<v Speaker 1>better off owning basic commodities. My my old mine is

0:17:51.600 --> 0:17:53.560
<v Speaker 1>I'd like to buy the things that if I dropped

0:17:53.600 --> 0:17:58.280
<v Speaker 1>them on my foot will hurt I e. Aluminum steel, iron, ore,

0:17:58.960 --> 0:18:03.040
<v Speaker 1>trains hips, big things, easy things, the things that go

0:18:03.080 --> 0:18:05.680
<v Speaker 1>along with economic growth. Those are the things that I

0:18:05.720 --> 0:18:09.119
<v Speaker 1>think would make sense. Plus there's dividends to be gotten

0:18:09.119 --> 0:18:12.200
<v Speaker 1>from them. So if you're going with the military authorities

0:18:12.240 --> 0:18:15.080
<v Speaker 1>giving you winded your back, oh those things right, Dennis,

0:18:15.119 --> 0:18:18.480
<v Speaker 1>one minute left. You're a victim of the South. You

0:18:18.560 --> 0:18:22.120
<v Speaker 1>live somewhere near a glorious golf course. I get that.

0:18:22.920 --> 0:18:25.800
<v Speaker 1>As we go to Florida, and as you write about politics,

0:18:25.880 --> 0:18:28.600
<v Speaker 1>I don't want your opinion on this talent. Does Mr

0:18:28.640 --> 0:18:35.560
<v Speaker 1>Trump have an economic policy you've discerned, Yes, protectionism, yes, lunacy.

0:18:35.680 --> 0:18:39.120
<v Speaker 1>Yes he's wrong, and I'm I'm I'm of the hope

0:18:39.160 --> 0:18:41.480
<v Speaker 1>that he is not the nominee and the Republican Party,

0:18:41.560 --> 0:18:44.119
<v Speaker 1>But at this point I'm about to give up that hope.

0:18:44.680 --> 0:18:51.840
<v Speaker 1>The only move to Canada. Oh, of course, very hard

0:18:51.880 --> 0:18:56.320
<v Speaker 1>to play all excepting Vancouver, Dennis, thank you so much, tennis,

0:18:56.440 --> 0:19:01.600
<v Speaker 1>gartment golf. Here's the surveillance breaks to listen today. Chapman

0:19:01.720 --> 0:19:06.280
<v Speaker 1>will not move Togeada, all right, Samaro, Draggy throws the

0:19:06.440 --> 0:19:09.320
<v Speaker 1>kitchen sink at financial markets, and Tom look at what

0:19:09.520 --> 0:19:13.520
<v Speaker 1>is happening to European banks. Deutsche Bank up four and

0:19:13.560 --> 0:19:17.480
<v Speaker 1>a half percent, Associated General up five percent, BNP Parabout

0:19:17.840 --> 0:19:21.359
<v Speaker 1>up four point four percent, the Italian bank UniCredit up

0:19:21.520 --> 0:19:27.120
<v Speaker 1>seven point two percent. Even Bonco Detach, the troubled Italian bank,

0:19:27.280 --> 0:19:30.000
<v Speaker 1>is up four point seven percent. Now, the movement that

0:19:30.080 --> 0:19:32.159
<v Speaker 1>we see, we knew it would be important, but it

0:19:32.359 --> 0:19:36.080
<v Speaker 1>always can surprise. We got the full surprise this morning,

0:19:36.119 --> 0:19:38.720

0:21:01.119 --> 0:21:03.560
<v Speaker 1>del Juday said the first Word desk with the jobless

0:21:03.560 --> 0:21:08.080
<v Speaker 1>claims figures. Michael jobless claims just above a four decade low,

0:21:08.160 --> 0:21:10.800
<v Speaker 1>close to a four decade low, falling last week by

0:21:10.880 --> 0:21:14.000
<v Speaker 1>eighteen thousand and two hundred fifty nine thousand, more than

0:21:14.119 --> 0:21:17.480
<v Speaker 1>Wall Street forecast. Again, jobless claims last week close to

0:21:17.560 --> 0:21:20.920
<v Speaker 1>a four decade low two hundred fifty nine thousand. Let's

0:21:20.960 --> 0:21:23.400
<v Speaker 1>go back to New York, all right, Vinnie del Judais,

0:21:23.520 --> 0:21:26.480
<v Speaker 1>jobless claims in the US near a four decade low.

0:21:27.000 --> 0:21:29.879
<v Speaker 1>Tell me the news is all good for markets. This

0:21:30.000 --> 0:21:34.200
<v Speaker 1>morning Olive Blonchard was heated. He's never heated, but within

0:21:34.280 --> 0:21:39.359
<v Speaker 1>the grace. Professor Blanchard states that things are better than

0:21:39.440 --> 0:21:42.840
<v Speaker 1>good in some of these economies. There is exact quote,

0:21:43.200 --> 0:21:46.359
<v Speaker 1>there is no fire in the house, not at the moment,

0:21:46.720 --> 0:21:52.680
<v Speaker 1>not like the world is exploding with growth, but it

0:21:52.840 --> 0:21:56.600
<v Speaker 1>is certainly better then maybe a lot of people in

0:21:56.640 --> 0:21:59.880
<v Speaker 1>the markets think. As I mentioned, we're watching European Bank

0:22:00.400 --> 0:22:02.840
<v Speaker 1>really really move. The stock six centered is up seven

0:22:02.880 --> 0:22:05.800
<v Speaker 1>points now more than two percent, Deutsche Bank up six

0:22:05.880 --> 0:22:09.719
<v Speaker 1>point two percent, sock Gen six point two percent, uh

0:22:10.080 --> 0:22:13.440
<v Speaker 1>Un Credit eight and a half percent. And that is

0:22:13.520 --> 0:22:16.960
<v Speaker 1>on the back of the ECB's action to not only

0:22:17.520 --> 0:22:20.600
<v Speaker 1>cut all three of its major rates, the deposit rate

0:22:20.640 --> 0:22:23.760
<v Speaker 1>down to negative forty basis points, but also increase q

0:22:24.000 --> 0:22:27.000
<v Speaker 1>E by another twenty billion euros to eight billion. We're

0:22:27.040 --> 0:22:29.399
<v Speaker 1>waiting for Mario drug He Brendan Brown with us, Honored

0:22:29.440 --> 0:22:31.200
<v Speaker 1>to have him with us. He has thought long and

0:22:31.400 --> 0:22:36.840
<v Speaker 1>hard um about eurodynamics. In Global Dynamics of Banking two

0:22:36.920 --> 0:22:40.159
<v Speaker 1>thousand thirteen, the Global Curse of the Fellow Reserve is

0:22:40.240 --> 0:22:43.600
<v Speaker 1>the rewrite the global curse of the European Central Bank.

0:22:44.200 --> 0:22:47.000
<v Speaker 1>That's a very appropriate title, I think. And I see

0:22:47.040 --> 0:22:50.400
<v Speaker 1>today's Mike, could you pull the microphone closer to Dr Brown?

0:22:50.480 --> 0:22:53.080
<v Speaker 1>It's his first time he's ever been with us, And

0:22:53.400 --> 0:22:55.879
<v Speaker 1>I see today's announcements from the e c B is

0:22:56.040 --> 0:23:01.040
<v Speaker 1>Act three in currency wool um plus a massive operation

0:23:01.359 --> 0:23:03.800
<v Speaker 1>to share up the weak European banks, most of all

0:23:03.840 --> 0:23:06.760
<v Speaker 1>in Italy. You already left worrying whether ECP President Dragging

0:23:06.880 --> 0:23:10.960
<v Speaker 1>is actually president of the Italian Central Bank. Well, he's

0:23:11.080 --> 0:23:13.320
<v Speaker 1>a president of the e c B. If it's a

0:23:13.480 --> 0:23:16.200
<v Speaker 1>currency ward, is the b O J joined in there

0:23:16.240 --> 0:23:18.200
<v Speaker 1>next on the calendar? Well, I think the question is

0:23:18.240 --> 0:23:20.639
<v Speaker 1>on the U S side. We we We've had a

0:23:20.840 --> 0:23:23.320
<v Speaker 1>very lively election campaign to save at least in in

0:23:23.480 --> 0:23:25.600
<v Speaker 1>in the United States, and a lot of concern about

0:23:25.640 --> 0:23:29.200
<v Speaker 1>currency manipulation in Japan and China. But it's about time

0:23:29.280 --> 0:23:33.000
<v Speaker 1>that the politicians here focused on the currency manipulation in Europe.

0:23:33.840 --> 0:23:36.720
<v Speaker 1>We are watching Mario dragging move towards the press conference.

0:23:37.520 --> 0:23:40.800
<v Speaker 1>You see this entourage is balance between Hansie and and

0:23:40.880 --> 0:23:43.760
<v Speaker 1>neo classics. Do you see how he does that? There's

0:23:43.760 --> 0:23:46.320
<v Speaker 1>no Austrians in Santrage. He has walked in and now

0:23:46.359 --> 0:23:48.560
<v Speaker 1>we get the obligatory photo up where all of the

0:23:49.240 --> 0:23:52.280
<v Speaker 1>cameras in Europe are trained upon the men of the hour,

0:23:52.920 --> 0:23:56.320
<v Speaker 1>Mario dragging up on the diet with him, vidor Constantio.

0:23:56.880 --> 0:23:59.879
<v Speaker 1>Everybody does it different of the ECB. You'll begin to

0:24:00.000 --> 0:24:03.760
<v Speaker 1>press covers at the moment and we'll have I want

0:24:03.800 --> 0:24:07.040
<v Speaker 1>to ask Brendon, does does it mean the FED is

0:24:07.840 --> 0:24:11.000
<v Speaker 1>I'll hold longer. No, I don't see that. I think

0:24:11.040 --> 0:24:13.680
<v Speaker 1>we have to see beyond five minutes what the reaction

0:24:13.880 --> 0:24:16.800
<v Speaker 1>is in the US markets and US economy. But I

0:24:16.840 --> 0:24:20.600
<v Speaker 1>don't see today's event is a huge market mover economy move.

0:24:20.640 --> 0:24:22.600
<v Speaker 1>I would just I would just make one final comment,

0:24:22.680 --> 0:24:25.320
<v Speaker 1>but it's been a complete failure I think of political

0:24:25.400 --> 0:24:28.719
<v Speaker 1>leadership in Germany to to hold this latest assault from track. Well,

0:24:28.720 --> 0:24:30.960
<v Speaker 1>we'll see if Mario dragging talks about that, he's beginning

0:24:31.000 --> 0:24:33.520
<v Speaker 1>his news conference now in Frankfurt. Let's go to the

0:24:33.600 --> 0:24:46.400
<v Speaker 1>President the European Central Bank. Ladies and gentlemen, The Vice

0:24:46.480 --> 0:24:48.840
<v Speaker 1>President and I are very pleased to welcome you to

0:24:48.920 --> 0:24:52.480
<v Speaker 1>our press conference. We will now a report on the

0:24:52.560 --> 0:24:57.280
<v Speaker 1>outcome of today's meeting of the Governing Council, which was

0:24:57.359 --> 0:25:01.280
<v Speaker 1>also attended by the Commission Vice President is that dombrovskis

0:25:03.280 --> 0:25:08.000
<v Speaker 1>based on our regular economic and monetary policy monitory analysis.

0:25:08.560 --> 0:25:13.159
<v Speaker 1>We have conducted a thorough review of the monetary policy stance,

0:25:14.119 --> 0:25:18.600
<v Speaker 1>in which we also took into account the new microeconomic

0:25:18.680 --> 0:25:23.960
<v Speaker 1>projections by our staff extending into the year two thousand eighteen.

0:25:26.320 --> 0:25:30.720
<v Speaker 1>As a result, the Governing Council has the decided has

0:25:30.800 --> 0:25:33.920
<v Speaker 1>decided on a set of measures in the pursuit of

0:25:34.000 --> 0:25:41.240
<v Speaker 1>its price stability objective. This comprehensive package will exploit the

0:25:41.480 --> 0:25:47.359
<v Speaker 1>synergies between the different instruments and has been calibrated to

0:25:47.680 --> 0:25:54.840
<v Speaker 1>further ease financing conditions, stimulate new credit provision and thereby

0:25:55.200 --> 0:26:00.359
<v Speaker 1>reinforced the momentum of the Euro Area's economic recovery and

0:26:00.520 --> 0:26:04.919
<v Speaker 1>accelerate the return of inflation to levels below but close

0:26:05.000 --> 0:26:11.639
<v Speaker 1>to two First as regomards the key E C D

0:26:11.880 --> 0:26:16.320
<v Speaker 1>interest rates. We decided to lower the interest rate on

0:26:16.440 --> 0:26:21.360
<v Speaker 1>the main refinancing operations of the eurosystem by five basis

0:26:21.440 --> 0:26:26.040
<v Speaker 1>points to zero and the rate on the marginal lending

0:26:26.119 --> 0:26:30.760
<v Speaker 1>facility by five basis points to zero point twenty five.

0:26:32.880 --> 0:26:36.240
<v Speaker 1>The rate on the deposit facility was lowered by ten

0:26:36.359 --> 0:26:43.960
<v Speaker 1>basis points two mins zero point four percent. Second, we

0:26:44.119 --> 0:26:50.000
<v Speaker 1>decided to expand the monthly purchases under our asset purchase

0:26:50.119 --> 0:26:55.920
<v Speaker 1>program from sixty billion euros to at present to eighty

0:26:56.240 --> 0:27:01.359
<v Speaker 1>billion euros. They are intended to run until the end

0:27:01.440 --> 0:27:05.840
<v Speaker 1>of March two thousand and seventeen, or beyond if necessary,

0:27:06.600 --> 0:27:09.720
<v Speaker 1>and in any case, until the Governing Council sees a

0:27:09.840 --> 0:27:15.280
<v Speaker 1>sustained adjustment in the path of inflation consistent with its

0:27:15.440 --> 0:27:19.560
<v Speaker 1>aim of achieving inflation rates below but close to cent

0:27:20.000 --> 0:27:27.360
<v Speaker 1>over the media term. To ensure the continued smooth implementation

0:27:27.560 --> 0:27:32.600
<v Speaker 1>of our asset purchases, we also decided to increase the

0:27:32.840 --> 0:27:37.520
<v Speaker 1>issuer and issue share limits for the purchases of securities

0:27:37.960 --> 0:27:44.880
<v Speaker 1>issued by eligible international organizations and multilateral development banks from

0:27:44.960 --> 0:27:52.119
<v Speaker 1>thirty three percent to fifty percent. Third, we decided to

0:27:52.720 --> 0:27:58.440
<v Speaker 1>include investment grade Euro denominated bonds issued by non bank

0:27:58.680 --> 0:28:02.800
<v Speaker 1>corporations established in the Euro Area in the list of

0:28:02.880 --> 0:28:08.040
<v Speaker 1>assets that are eligible for regular purchases under a new

0:28:08.160 --> 0:28:14.200
<v Speaker 1>corporate sector purchase program. This will further strengthen the pass

0:28:14.280 --> 0:28:18.200
<v Speaker 1>through over ours purchases to the financing conditions of the

0:28:18.320 --> 0:28:24.040
<v Speaker 1>real economy. Purchased under the new program will start towards

0:28:24.119 --> 0:28:28.840
<v Speaker 1>the end of the second quarter of this year. Fourth,

0:28:29.840 --> 0:28:34.639
<v Speaker 1>we decided to launch a new series of four targeted

0:28:34.920 --> 0:28:41.400
<v Speaker 1>longer term refinancing operations tel TROW two starting in June

0:28:41.560 --> 0:28:46.600
<v Speaker 1>two thousand and sixteen, each with a maturity of four years.

0:28:48.200 --> 0:28:53.360
<v Speaker 1>These new operations will reinforce the ecb is a commodative

0:28:53.440 --> 0:28:59.080
<v Speaker 1>monetary policy stands and will strengthen the transmission of monetary

0:28:59.160 --> 0:29:04.920
<v Speaker 1>policy by further incentivizing bank lending to the real economy.

0:29:07.320 --> 0:29:12.000
<v Speaker 1>Counterparties will be entitled to borrow up to of the

0:29:12.160 --> 0:29:17.240
<v Speaker 1>stock of eligible loans as of the thirty as as

0:29:17.360 --> 0:29:23.240
<v Speaker 1>at the thirty one January two thousand sixteen, The interest

0:29:23.320 --> 0:29:27.000
<v Speaker 1>rate under TELTRO tool will be fixed over the life

0:29:27.680 --> 0:29:33.000
<v Speaker 1>of each operation at the rate on the eurosystems may

0:29:33.120 --> 0:29:40.360
<v Speaker 1>refinancing operations prevailing at the time of take up for

0:29:40.560 --> 0:29:45.360
<v Speaker 1>banks whose net landing exceeds a benchmark. The rate applied

0:29:45.440 --> 0:29:49.480
<v Speaker 1>to the Teltro tool will be lower and can be

0:29:49.760 --> 0:29:53.800
<v Speaker 1>as low as the interest rate on the deposit facility

0:29:54.120 --> 0:29:59.120
<v Speaker 1>prevailing at the time of the take up. There will

0:29:59.160 --> 0:30:03.640
<v Speaker 1>be no require arement for mandatory earlier payments under Teltro tool,

0:30:05.000 --> 0:30:12.719
<v Speaker 1>and switches from Teltro one will be allowed. Finally, looking ahead,

0:30:13.360 --> 0:30:17.400
<v Speaker 1>taken into account the current outlook for price stability, the

0:30:17.480 --> 0:30:22.160
<v Speaker 1>Governing Council expects the key ECB interest rates to remain

0:30:22.280 --> 0:30:27.040
<v Speaker 1>at present or lower levels for an extended period of

0:30:27.160 --> 0:30:32.800
<v Speaker 1>time and well past the horizon of our net asset purchases.

0:30:35.160 --> 0:30:39.360
<v Speaker 1>Separate press releases with further details of the measures taken

0:30:39.440 --> 0:30:44.240
<v Speaker 1>by the Governing Council will be published this afternoon at

0:30:44.520 --> 0:30:51.000
<v Speaker 1>three thirty Adding to the measures taken since June two

0:30:51.080 --> 0:30:57.040
<v Speaker 1>thousand fourteen, with today's comprehensive package of monetary policy decisions,

0:30:58.080 --> 0:31:04.040
<v Speaker 1>we are providing substantial monetary stimulus to counteract heightened risks

0:31:04.200 --> 0:31:10.200
<v Speaker 1>to the e CBS price stability objective with the While

0:31:10.440 --> 0:31:15.720
<v Speaker 1>very low or even negative inflation rates are unavoidable over

0:31:15.800 --> 0:31:18.640
<v Speaker 1>the next few months as a result of movements in

0:31:18.760 --> 0:31:24.040
<v Speaker 1>oil prices, it is crucial to avoid second round effects

0:31:24.320 --> 0:31:28.520
<v Speaker 1>by securing the return of inflation to levels below but

0:31:28.760 --> 0:31:36.120
<v Speaker 1>close to without undue delay, be going to an annual

0:31:36.320 --> 0:31:40.000
<v Speaker 1>rate of ten point five percent in January after ten

0:31:41.040 --> 0:31:48.600
<v Speaker 1>in December. Loan dynamics continued the path of gradual recovery

0:31:48.680 --> 0:31:53.880
<v Speaker 1>observed since the beginning of two thousand fourteen. The annual

0:31:54.120 --> 0:31:59.160
<v Speaker 1>rate of change of loans to non financial corporations increased

0:31:59.280 --> 0:32:02.920
<v Speaker 1>to zero point six percent in January two thousand sixteen,

0:32:03.720 --> 0:32:08.320
<v Speaker 1>up from zero point one in December two thousand fifteen.

0:32:10.160 --> 0:32:15.640
<v Speaker 1>Developments in loans to enterprises continue to reflect the lack

0:32:15.680 --> 0:32:21.040
<v Speaker 1>of relationship with the business cycle, credit risk, and the

0:32:21.240 --> 0:32:26.440
<v Speaker 1>ongoing adjustment of financial and non financial sector balance sheets.

0:32:29.160 --> 0:32:34.000
<v Speaker 1>The annual growth rate of loans two households remained stable

0:32:34.360 --> 0:32:40.840
<v Speaker 1>at one point four percent in January two thousand sixteen. Overall,

0:32:41.400 --> 0:32:45.440
<v Speaker 1>the monetary policy measures in place since June two fourteen

0:32:46.240 --> 0:32:50.720
<v Speaker 1>have clearly improved borrowing conditions for firms and households, as

0:32:50.800 --> 0:32:55.680
<v Speaker 1>well as credit flows across the Euro Area. To sum

0:32:55.880 --> 0:32:59.720
<v Speaker 1>up across check of the outcome of the economic and

0:33:00.200 --> 0:33:04.880
<v Speaker 1>just with the signals coming from the monetary analysis confirmed

0:33:05.120 --> 0:33:09.240
<v Speaker 1>the need for further monetary stimulus in order to secure

0:33:09.920 --> 0:33:13.160
<v Speaker 1>the return of inflation race towards levels that are below

0:33:13.360 --> 0:33:20.360
<v Speaker 1>but close to two without undue delay. Monetary policy is

0:33:20.440 --> 0:33:24.440
<v Speaker 1>focused on maintaining price stability over the medium term, and

0:33:24.800 --> 0:33:31.400
<v Speaker 1>it's accommolative stance supports economic activity. However, in order to

0:33:31.600 --> 0:33:36.160
<v Speaker 1>rip the full benefits from our monetary policy measures are

0:33:36.200 --> 0:33:43.040
<v Speaker 1>the policy areas must contribute decisively. Given continued high structural

0:33:43.160 --> 0:33:46.960
<v Speaker 1>unemployment and low potential output growth in the EU Area,

0:33:47.600 --> 0:33:55.760
<v Speaker 1>the ongoing cyclical recovery should be supported by effective structural policies. Inarticular,

0:33:56.240 --> 0:34:02.080
<v Speaker 1>actions to raise productivity and improve the this environment, including

0:34:02.240 --> 0:34:06.560
<v Speaker 1>the provision of an adequate public infrastructure, are vital to

0:34:06.680 --> 0:34:13.520
<v Speaker 1>increase investment and boost job creation. The swift and effective

0:34:13.560 --> 0:34:17.880
<v Speaker 1>implementation of structural reforms in an environment of accommodative monetary

0:34:17.960 --> 0:34:22.399
<v Speaker 1>policy will not only lead to higher sustainable economic growth

0:34:22.480 --> 0:34:25.439
<v Speaker 1>in the euro Area, but will also make the euro

0:34:25.520 --> 0:34:30.880
<v Speaker 1>Area more resilient to global shocks. As indicated by the

0:34:30.960 --> 0:34:36.800
<v Speaker 1>European Commission, the implementation of country specific recommendations continued to

0:34:36.920 --> 0:34:43.279
<v Speaker 1>be fairly limited into thousand fifteen. Reform efforts thus need

0:34:43.400 --> 0:34:47.040
<v Speaker 1>to be stepped up. In the majority of Euro Area countries.

0:34:48.480 --> 0:34:53.600
<v Speaker 1>Fiscal policies should support the economic recovery while remaining in

0:34:53.719 --> 0:34:58.800
<v Speaker 1>compliance with the fiscal rules of the European Union. Full

0:34:59.080 --> 0:35:04.239
<v Speaker 1>and consistent implementation of the Stability and Growth Pact is

0:35:04.320 --> 0:35:09.239
<v Speaker 1>crucial to maintain confidence in the fiscal framework. At the

0:35:09.360 --> 0:35:14.280
<v Speaker 1>same time, all countries should strive for a more growth

0:35:14.400 --> 0:35:19.480
<v Speaker 1>friendly composition of fiscal policies. We are now at your

0:35:19.520 --> 0:35:31.719
<v Speaker 1>disposal for questions, Mr President Alexandro, especially from Bloomer News. UM.

0:35:32.360 --> 0:35:37.600
<v Speaker 1>My first question is about UM the forward guidance that

0:35:37.719 --> 0:35:41.400
<v Speaker 1>you have given that rates will be lower for a

0:35:41.520 --> 0:35:45.759
<v Speaker 1>long time. Also after the end of asset purchases. Is

0:35:45.880 --> 0:35:48.880
<v Speaker 1>the duration of the new THA tr row to be

0:35:49.360 --> 0:35:54.000
<v Speaker 1>looked at in this respect and this will also extend

0:35:54.280 --> 0:35:57.640
<v Speaker 1>to past the end of your mandate if I'm not

0:35:57.760 --> 0:36:03.160
<v Speaker 1>mistaken or almost And um, And my second question would

0:36:03.200 --> 0:36:09.040
<v Speaker 1>be when you say lower, UM, how low can this be?

0:36:09.360 --> 0:36:13.400
<v Speaker 1>I know that this has changed a lot in the

0:36:13.480 --> 0:36:17.800
<v Speaker 1>past few years as new horizons have open firm monetary policy.

0:36:18.400 --> 0:36:21.640
<v Speaker 1>But do you have any idea are you approaching a

0:36:21.760 --> 0:36:25.279
<v Speaker 1>limit or you still have an EMBL room to go?

0:36:26.120 --> 0:36:31.960
<v Speaker 1>And and that's two castance ready, Yeah, well on on

0:36:32.120 --> 0:36:36.560
<v Speaker 1>the UM on the teltor I just can't give you

0:36:36.719 --> 0:36:40.840
<v Speaker 1>a sort of a brief overview of what this operation is,

0:36:41.640 --> 0:36:43.560
<v Speaker 1>keeping in mind that there's going to be a press

0:36:43.640 --> 0:36:49.840
<v Speaker 1>briefing at four today UH for today for all the

0:36:50.000 --> 0:36:55.799
<v Speaker 1>further technical details that you may may be interested now.

0:36:56.400 --> 0:37:00.680
<v Speaker 1>The teltors are refinancing operations that provide lows two banks

0:37:01.040 --> 0:37:05.640
<v Speaker 1>with a long maturity, and banks are given additional incentives

0:37:05.680 --> 0:37:10.360
<v Speaker 1>to land on the funds received. The key features of

0:37:10.440 --> 0:37:17.040
<v Speaker 1>our Teltro program are the following. We will offer four operations,

0:37:18.080 --> 0:37:23.120
<v Speaker 1>one each quarter starting June two thousand and sixteen until

0:37:23.360 --> 0:37:29.239
<v Speaker 1>March two thousand seventeen. The maturity of the operations will

0:37:29.280 --> 0:37:33.359
<v Speaker 1>be four years each, so that the last Teltro two

0:37:34.120 --> 0:37:41.440
<v Speaker 1>will mature in March two thousand twenty one. Banks will

0:37:41.520 --> 0:37:45.880
<v Speaker 1>pay the MR rate at the time of bidding, so

0:37:46.760 --> 0:37:51.920
<v Speaker 1>right now at zero, and they may even get a

0:37:52.040 --> 0:37:56.480
<v Speaker 1>reduction on that rate, which increases with the amount of

0:37:56.640 --> 0:38:02.239
<v Speaker 1>loans they grant. Yeah, so the maximum reduction will bring

0:38:02.360 --> 0:38:06.840
<v Speaker 1>the rate on the Teltro tool to the level of

0:38:07.000 --> 0:38:13.960
<v Speaker 1>the deposit facility rate at the time of bidding. The

0:38:14.040 --> 0:38:17.800
<v Speaker 1>amount that banks can borrow is linked to the amount

0:38:17.880 --> 0:38:23.360
<v Speaker 1>of loans they have on their balance sheet, so a

0:38:23.480 --> 0:38:26.239
<v Speaker 1>bank that's very active in granting loans to the real

0:38:26.320 --> 0:38:31.440
<v Speaker 1>economy can borrow more than a bank that concentrates on

0:38:31.680 --> 0:38:37.920
<v Speaker 1>other activities. So the full list of features is in

0:38:38.520 --> 0:38:42.680
<v Speaker 1>the press release that will be published after this press conference.

0:38:44.400 --> 0:38:49.000
<v Speaker 1>So why did we decide to have another series of

0:38:49.040 --> 0:38:53.800
<v Speaker 1>teltros Well, some of the main reasons are long growth

0:38:53.880 --> 0:38:56.640
<v Speaker 1>in the EU area is being recovering now for quite

0:38:56.680 --> 0:39:02.839
<v Speaker 1>a time, but it's still too low. Also, teltro too well,

0:39:03.160 --> 0:39:07.239
<v Speaker 1>and we had actually a pretty successful experience with the

0:39:07.320 --> 0:39:11.040
<v Speaker 1>first tel throw, so we expect the Teltro too will

0:39:11.120 --> 0:39:15.160
<v Speaker 1>offer attractive long term funding conditions to banks to further

0:39:15.400 --> 0:39:19.640
<v Speaker 1>ease private sector credit conditions and to stimulate credit creation.

0:39:19.920 --> 0:39:24.200
<v Speaker 1>I think this is quite important now. Also it provides

0:39:24.280 --> 0:39:30.440
<v Speaker 1>funding certainty. Let's not forget it's four years operation at

0:39:30.480 --> 0:39:36.960
<v Speaker 1>an attractive price in an environment of increasing volatility and

0:39:37.960 --> 0:39:44.680
<v Speaker 1>also an environment of large upcoming bond redemptions bank bond redemptions,

0:39:46.080 --> 0:39:51.279
<v Speaker 1>so banks face sizeable forthcoming funding needs. And so this

0:39:51.400 --> 0:39:53.839
<v Speaker 1>occurs in an environment where the price you know, bank

0:39:53.960 --> 0:40:00.279
<v Speaker 1>debt is volatile and uncertain. So we with think that,

0:40:01.000 --> 0:40:04.200
<v Speaker 1>in conjunction with all the other measures standard and non

0:40:04.280 --> 0:40:07.680
<v Speaker 1>standard in place, the startro two will contribute to a

0:40:07.800 --> 0:40:11.279
<v Speaker 1>return of inflation rates to an objective of close but

0:40:11.360 --> 0:40:27.279
<v Speaker 1>below two percent over the medium term. Thank you, I'm sorry. Well,

0:40:27.719 --> 0:40:31.520
<v Speaker 1>I yes, Well, that's how low can we go? That's

0:40:31.560 --> 0:40:34.960
<v Speaker 1>on the um. Let me say that the rates will

0:40:35.040 --> 0:40:39.600
<v Speaker 1>stay low, very low, for a long period of time

0:40:40.600 --> 0:40:46.480
<v Speaker 1>and well past the horizon of our purchases. From today's

0:40:46.560 --> 0:40:51.480
<v Speaker 1>perspective and taking into account the support of our measures

0:40:51.600 --> 0:40:56.560
<v Speaker 1>to growth and inflation, we don't anticipate that it will

0:40:56.640 --> 0:41:03.279
<v Speaker 1>be necessary to reduce rates for there. Of course, new

0:41:03.440 --> 0:41:09.000
<v Speaker 1>facts can change the situation and the outlook. I mean

0:41:09.080 --> 0:41:12.160
<v Speaker 1>also add that the experience we had with negative rates

0:41:12.960 --> 0:41:16.640
<v Speaker 1>in our case, at least, it's been very positive in

0:41:16.800 --> 0:41:21.480
<v Speaker 1>easing financing conditions and in the transmission of this better

0:41:21.600 --> 0:41:29.360
<v Speaker 1>financing conditions to the real economy. We're also aware that,

0:41:31.040 --> 0:41:33.400
<v Speaker 1>by the way here, there are different views about whether

0:41:33.760 --> 0:41:37.680
<v Speaker 1>negative rates have affected or how they affect the profitability

0:41:37.719 --> 0:41:42.840
<v Speaker 1>of the banking system. We can discuss this later, but

0:41:45.280 --> 0:41:48.160
<v Speaker 1>let me ask you, I mean doesn't mean that any

0:41:48.280 --> 0:41:52.200
<v Speaker 1>negative rate will be positive. Doesn't mean that we can

0:41:52.280 --> 0:41:56.560
<v Speaker 1>go as negative as we want without having any consequence

0:41:56.600 --> 0:42:00.200
<v Speaker 1>on the banking system. Yes, it is now and um,

0:42:00.960 --> 0:42:04.560
<v Speaker 1>you probably know that we've discussed for some time the

0:42:04.640 --> 0:42:08.640
<v Speaker 1>possibility of having a tearing system, so an exemption system

0:42:08.800 --> 0:42:12.560
<v Speaker 1>from for this operation. And in the end the Going

0:42:12.680 --> 0:42:18.680
<v Speaker 1>Council decided not to exactly for the purpose of not

0:42:19.000 --> 0:42:21.880
<v Speaker 1>signaling that we can go as low as we want

0:42:22.320 --> 0:42:29.480
<v Speaker 1>on this. So the Going Council is basically, although it

0:42:29.560 --> 0:42:32.880
<v Speaker 1>gives a positive judgment about the past experience, is increasingly

0:42:32.880 --> 0:42:39.400
<v Speaker 1>aware of the complexities that this measure entails. Uh As

0:42:39.600 --> 0:42:43.480
<v Speaker 1>as I said before, we think and we have numbers.
