Here are the stories that we're 21 00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:10,600 Speaker 1: following today. 22 00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:12,920 Speaker 2: The Chancellor of the Exchequer says he would support the 23 00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:16,160 Speaker 2: Bank of England raising interest rates even further to bring 24 00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:19,920 Speaker 2: down inflation. Jeremy Hunt adding that he's comfortable with Britain 25 00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:22,720 Speaker 2: being plunged into recession if that's what it takes to 26 00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:24,040 Speaker 2: stabilize prices. 27 00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 6: We will make sure that the government plays its part, 28 00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 6: the Bank of England plays its part, but it is 29 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:34,280 Speaker 6: not a trade off between tackling inflation and recession. In 30 00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:37,319 Speaker 6: the end, the only path to sustainable growth is to 31 00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:38,200 Speaker 6: bring down inflation. 32 00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 2: The Chancellor's remarks follow this week surprisingly strong inflation figures 33 00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:45,440 Speaker 2: for the UK, which prompted traders to boost bets on 34 00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 2: BOE rates, hitting five and a half percent. Meanwhile, the 35 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:52,240 Speaker 2: Bank of England policymaker Jonathan Haskell is signaling he's likely 36 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:56,440 Speaker 2: to support further hikes. Speaking at an event in Washington, 37 00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:59,400 Speaker 2: the rate setter said it's important to lean against the 38 00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 2: risk of an inflation becoming embedded. 39 00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:06,160 Speaker 1: Now, Republican and White House negotiators are understood to be 40 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:08,960 Speaker 1: moving closer to an agreement to raise the debt limit. 41 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:11,959 Speaker 1: Bluebog has learned that while a deal is not yet 42 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:15,400 Speaker 1: in hand, the two sides have narrowed their differences on spending. 43 00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 1: Speaking two reporters, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy sought to shift 44 00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:22,640 Speaker 1: blame to Democrats for the ongoing impass. 45 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:25,000 Speaker 4: We need to have an agreement that's worthy of the 46 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:25,760 Speaker 4: American public. 47 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:27,560 Speaker 7: The reason why we're here. 48 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:30,400 Speaker 4: We've got more money in any given time coming into 49 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:31,000 Speaker 4: our government. 50 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:33,080 Speaker 8: But when the Democrats' majority, they. 51 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:35,720 Speaker 6: Are now spending more than any time in our history, 52 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:38,120 Speaker 6: and our debt is higher than any time in our history. 53 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:39,359 Speaker 8: So let's just get this right. 54 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 1: McCarthy's comments come as new data shows the Treasury's cash 55 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,400 Speaker 1: balance has fallen below fifty billion dollars for the first 56 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 1: time since twenty twenty one. Janet Yellen says that the 57 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 1: government could run out of money as soon as the 58 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 1: first of June without a deal back. 59 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 2: Here in the UK, fund managers are starting to question 60 00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 2: if new plans to create a UK Growth Fund clash 61 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:04,320 Speaker 2: their duty to deliver returns. Executives at Agon, Aviva and 62 00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:07,680 Speaker 2: Aberdeen are among those voicing their concerns that the fifty 63 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 2: billion pound proposal would be mandatory. The fund has been 64 00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:13,560 Speaker 2: championed by the City of London's Mayor, Nick Lions, who 65 00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:15,799 Speaker 2: laid out those plans in our studio last week. 66 00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:19,520 Speaker 8: We've got four trillion pounds in our pension system, but 67 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:24,080 Speaker 8: it's only seven percent invested in understood assets like infrastructure, loans, 68 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:27,400 Speaker 8: real estate, private equity, private debt. When you look at 69 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:30,400 Speaker 8: the most successful pension systems in the world, that's thirty 70 00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 8: thirty five percent. In some of the cases of the 71 00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:36,320 Speaker 8: Canadian pension funds, it's fifty percent in those unlisted asset classes. 72 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 8: So we've failed so far to deliver the sort of 73 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 8: returns that our policyholders need to give to get proper 74 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:44,240 Speaker 8: retirement income. 75 00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 2: The mayor also hads the City of London Corporation. In 76 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:51,560 Speaker 2: response to the criticism, they told us they would prefer 77 00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 2: a voluntary agreement or a pledge from pension funds to 78 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 2: a mandate. 79 00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 1: Now, UBS and the Swiss government haven't agreed the precise 80 00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:03,360 Speaker 1: time in terms of state guarantees for the emergency takeover 81 00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 1: of Credit Suite. Sources say that completion of the deal 82 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:09,160 Speaker 1: could be pushed back to June instead of late May. 83 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:12,240 Speaker 1: Ubs and the government are also still haggling over the 84 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 1: regulatory implications of the takeover, including capital requirements and liquidity rules. 85 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:21,800 Speaker 2: JPMorgan Chase notified about one thousand First Republic Bank employees 86 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 2: that they aren't being given jobs even temporarily, following its 87 00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 2: takeover of the failed lender. The story from Bloomberg's Charlie Pallace. 88 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 7: Sources say the biggest American bank did offer full time 89 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:35,080 Speaker 7: or transitional roles to almost eighty five percent of the 90 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 7: nearly seven thousand employees still working at First Republic when 91 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 7: it collapsed, while the rest were told they would not 92 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:46,120 Speaker 7: get offers. The temporary jobs will be for three, six, 93 00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 7: nine or twelve months, depending on the position, a spokesperson said. 94 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 7: Former First Republic employees who were not offered jobs at 95 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 7: JP Morgan Quote will receive pay and benefits covering sixty 96 00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 7: days and will be offered up package that includes an 97 00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 7: additional Lumpston payment and continuing benefits coverage in New York 98 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,600 Speaker 7: Charley Palette, Bloomberg Daybreak Europe. 99 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:13,440 Speaker 1: Kathy Woods flagship ETF closed out It's in Nvidia's steak 100 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:17,120 Speaker 1: in January, missing out on the stock's recent search. The 101 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:19,920 Speaker 1: chip maker of the world's most valuable has added more 102 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:22,880 Speaker 1: than half a trillion dollars in market caps since Wood 103 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:26,280 Speaker 1: dumped the shares. Wood holds Nvidia across several of her 104 00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 1: smaller funds, but investors in the flagship our innovation ETF 105 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 1: have missed out on in Nvidia's blistering rally. 106 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:37,599 Speaker 2: Soos are our top stories this morning, Caroline, Are you 107 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 2: planning to do any important shopping at the weekend, bunny 108 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:42,600 Speaker 2: chance a fancy watch. 109 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 1: A fancy watch on your checkst Probably not, but I 110 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:48,839 Speaker 1: know that we track all the data if you do 111 00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:49,920 Speaker 1: want to buy one.

We track the most watches. 115 00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:03,160 Speaker 2: He's are prices for pre owned watches that follow about 116 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 2: twenty six percent in a year, So it could be 117 00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 2: perhaps the moment to go looking. The Rolex Explorer to 118 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:12,360 Speaker 2: and the Patac Nautilius are the biggest decliners in that 119 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:14,880 Speaker 2: as well, So this could be the moment that perhaps 120 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 2: you might want to swoop in there. 121 00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely, And it's listen all the stories abound watches 122 00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:22,919 Speaker 1: and luxury items are always so well read on the 123 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:25,359 Speaker 1: BlueBag terminal, especially on a Friday, so I bet this 124 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:26,200 Speaker 1: is going to get loads of hit. 125 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:29,080 Speaker 2: Well in case you're looking for a different bargain. Chanel's 126 00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:32,359 Speaker 2: ten thousand dollars. Handbags probably cost more come September, and 127 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:34,799 Speaker 2: this is because the luxury brand etcetera of view prices. 128 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:37,720 Speaker 2: They do it twice a year. They've already increased them 129 00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 2: eight percent in March, so currently. 130 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 3: That is much more my streets. 131 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 1: Now, why didn't we start with that. 132 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:44,320 Speaker 3: Rather than the watches? 133 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 2: I like to cast my luxury net broad Yeah. 134 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 1: Okay, lovely, thank you for that. Right, let's talk about 135 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:53,599 Speaker 1: what's happening here in the UK this morning. So back 136 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:56,800 Speaker 1: in January, the Prime Minister laid out five priorities for 137 00:06:56,839 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 1: his government. They were, of course, to half inflation, grow 138 00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:04,680 Speaker 1: the economy, cut debt, cuts waiting lists in terms of 139 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 1: healthcare in the NHS, and stop migrants arriving in the 140 00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 1: UK in small boats. After this week, though, even the 141 00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 1: least ambitious of those goals seems tougher to achieve. Our 142 00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:19,360 Speaker 1: UK correspondent Lizzi Burden joins us now with more. Good morning, Lizzie. 143 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:21,680 Speaker 1: So it's not been a terribly good week for Rishi 144 00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 1: Suna on the economic front. This week's inflation figures casting 145 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 1: real doubt on what we all thought was going to 146 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:28,840 Speaker 1: be an easy goal halving inflation. 147 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:29,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, do you. 148 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:32,480 Speaker 9: Remember, only weeks ago, former Bank of England Monetary Policy 149 00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 9: Committee member Michael Saundlers told us that promising that inflation 150 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:38,640 Speaker 9: would have by year end was like targeting that the 151 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:42,080 Speaker 9: sun should rise tomorrow. Well it doesn't look like that anymore. 152 00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:45,440 Speaker 9: We saw this week, as you say, inflation might be 153 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 9: back in single digits, but that April figure beat all 154 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:54,480 Speaker 9: economists expectations and importantly core inflation rose. So that signifies 155 00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 9: the stickiness of the price growth problem we have in 156 00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:57,600 Speaker 9: the UK. 157 00:07:58,200 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 3: Also, a lot of it. 158 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:03,440 Speaker 9: Is food, and a third of that, an LSC paper said, 159 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:05,800 Speaker 9: is caused by Brexit, and it's going to hit the 160 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:08,800 Speaker 9: poorest Brits the hardest because of course they spend proportionately 161 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:10,080 Speaker 9: more on food. 162 00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:12,200 Speaker 3: Now, if you look at the work function. 163 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:13,680 Speaker 9: On the terminal, and forgive my accent, I have to 164 00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 9: spell it for you, WRP, that's you can show you 165 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:20,000 Speaker 9: that traders are now pricing a peak rate of five 166 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:24,280 Speaker 9: point five percent more than actually by November. So when 167 00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 9: more than a million homeowners are coming to remortgage later 168 00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:30,800 Speaker 9: this year, they're going to get a nasty surprise. 169 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:34,319 Speaker 2: Is the all accents? Welcome on this program. Look, we've 170 00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:37,760 Speaker 2: been hearing from the Chancellor talking about the tackling that 171 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:41,080 Speaker 2: inflation problem, saying he's comfortable with recession. 172 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 9: Yes, well, I think that the Chancellor has to get 173 00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:47,200 Speaker 9: behind whatever the Bank of England needs to do, because 174 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:52,200 Speaker 9: you'll remember last year the doubt that was cast on 175 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:56,000 Speaker 9: the Bank of England's independence in the List Trust era, 176 00:08:56,920 --> 00:09:01,079 Speaker 9: blaming the governor essentially for the inflation problem getting out 177 00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:05,080 Speaker 9: of control. And so in order to maintain stability and 178 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:09,080 Speaker 9: financial credibility for the UK, the Chancellor knows that he 179 00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:12,240 Speaker 9: needs to support whatever the BOE does and at the 180 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:14,040 Speaker 9: moment that looks like it needs to. 181 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:16,000 Speaker 3: Keep on raising interest rates. 182 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:18,120 Speaker 9: That's what the majority of the MPC are talking about, 183 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:22,120 Speaker 9: we heard from Jonathan Haskell yesterday. In order to control inflation, 184 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:26,240 Speaker 9: and the reality of that is it means weighing on 185 00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:30,679 Speaker 9: the demand, perhaps bringing about unemployment, perhaps bringing about recession 186 00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:32,640 Speaker 9: in order to bring down price growth. 187 00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 1: Okay. Also we did get out yesterday's net migration figures. 188 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:40,840 Speaker 1: That won't help to boost optimism around the idea of 189 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:47,160 Speaker 1: reducing immigration in the coaches. Another big political commitment. 190 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:51,200 Speaker 9: Yeah, stop the boats was rischisunac's number five priority. We 191 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:53,560 Speaker 9: found out this week. You've had a record number of 192 00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:58,160 Speaker 9: migrants in twenty twenty two. Six hundred and six thousand 193 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:02,120 Speaker 9: is the net migration figure. Rishie Sunac said not only 194 00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:04,760 Speaker 9: that he would stop boats crossing the channel, but he'd 195 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:08,600 Speaker 9: bring down migration in general. It's a long standing Tory promise. 196 00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:11,559 Speaker 9: It was touted as one of the benefits of Brexit, 197 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:14,480 Speaker 9: and so this figure, even though it's not as high 198 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:16,400 Speaker 9: as some of the estimates that were put out there, 199 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 9: we were warned it could be as high as a million. 200 00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:22,360 Speaker 9: It exposes the divisions within his Conservative party. We've already 201 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:24,720 Speaker 9: heard from the Home Secretary, Sella Brahman saying that she 202 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 9: wants British people to be picking fruit and driving trucks, 203 00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:32,440 Speaker 9: and yet you've got many sectors in the UK economy 204 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:36,079 Speaker 9: absolutely desperate for foreign labor. You've got this tight labor 205 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:40,439 Speaker 9: market adding to those inflation pressures. But I do think 206 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:44,360 Speaker 9: that it's important not to get hysterical about these migration numbers. 207 00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:48,240 Speaker 9: Jonathan Porters, the professor at King's College London who's really 208 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:49,880 Speaker 9: an immigration expert. 209 00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:51,600 Speaker 3: We have him on Bloomberg Radio often. 210 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:56,720 Speaker 9: He's said that the narrative that immigration spiraling ever upwards 211 00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:00,400 Speaker 9: or is out of control is simply false. Many of 212 00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:04,520 Speaker 9: those students that have come post pandemic that are pushing 213 00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:06,839 Speaker 9: up the numbers, he says, they're going to leave, run 214 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:09,920 Speaker 9: their courses end and work migrations being driven by a 215 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:13,640 Speaker 9: demand for staff, which eventually hopefully should eat Yeah. 216 00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:15,679 Speaker 2: And Lizzie, we were talking yesterday on the UK Politics 217 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:18,200 Speaker 2: podcast to count our Public, and they were noting that 218 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:22,599 Speaker 2: immigration is quite low down the list of public priorities. 219 00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:26,280 Speaker 2: Only twenty percent of people listed that as being a priority. 220 00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:29,320 Speaker 2: The economic concerns the NHS much much higher than that 221 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:32,200 Speaker 2: as well. Lizzie Bird and our UK correspondent, thank you 222 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:32,720 Speaker 2: for now. 223 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 1: Now up next Guilty Secret UK fails to guild the 224 00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:41,400 Speaker 1: lily and giving the extra five percent at home. 225 00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:47,360 Speaker 5: Now the paper review on Bluebird, Daybreak, Europe, the news 226 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:51,240 Speaker 5: you need to know from today's papers and Bloomberg. 227 00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:54,520 Speaker 2: Jamieilcock joins us. Now the details of those newspaper stories. 228 00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:58,520 Speaker 2: James the Ft has found something positive to say about 229 00:11:58,520 --> 00:11:59,440 Speaker 2: the UK guild market. 230 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 4: Surely not yes, surely yes, Steven Happy Friday. Aj bell 231 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:06,280 Speaker 4: So Financial Advisors and Wealth Menagement Companies. They are a 232 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:10,600 Speaker 4: one billion plus UK market cap company and their CEO 233 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:12,480 Speaker 4: has given in a few races. I've been here for 234 00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:15,520 Speaker 4: sixteen years. I have not seen guilts and fixed income 235 00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:18,760 Speaker 4: products being bought with anything like the volume that we 236 00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 4: are seeing right now. And that is all because of 237 00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:27,000 Speaker 4: UK retail investors who are like following institutional investors and saying, actually, 238 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:29,599 Speaker 4: my savings cat hasn't given me nearly enough returns. I 239 00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:33,560 Speaker 4: should put this into guilts. I'm to throw on extra 240 00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:36,240 Speaker 4: good news. Michael Summerskill, who is the aj bellco, told 241 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:39,439 Speaker 4: The Deadly Mail a different publication that a London listening 242 00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:42,800 Speaker 4: made massive sense for the company and it has managed 243 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:44,960 Speaker 4: to lure US backers over there. So that's a lot 244 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:46,839 Speaker 4: of good news for one day, Steve, and I don't 245 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:49,040 Speaker 4: know how you can cope. So I'm going to balance 246 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:51,880 Speaker 4: you out with a bit of reality from Marcus Ashworth, 247 00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:55,640 Speaker 4: our Bloomberg opinion columnist. His fear is there may be 248 00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:59,440 Speaker 4: all this demand, but the supply for guilts is also booming. 249 00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:01,880 Speaker 4: You are seeing more net government debt issuance in this 250 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 4: year than the past cumulative seven years, and the BOE 251 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:10,199 Speaker 4: is the only major central bag actively selling its bond holdings. 252 00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:13,080 Speaker 4: So although there is this big UK retail demand, that 253 00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:14,839 Speaker 4: that does not mean that the massive amount of supply 254 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:16,000 Speaker 4: is necessarily quashed. 255 00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:20,280 Speaker 1: No, absolutely, but just look at ten year UK real yields, 256 00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:22,800 Speaker 1: so there are yes and another six basis points to 257 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:26,440 Speaker 1: zero point five to seven percent. So actually that's why 258 00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:29,320 Speaker 1: you've got so much interest, because it's nominal and real 259 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:32,920 Speaker 1: yields across the UK curve that are going up. But 260 00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:37,600 Speaker 1: obviously the macro backdrop is pretty stressful. Meanwhile, The Times 261 00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:40,360 Speaker 1: have yet another serious challenge to resh you to the 262 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:45,079 Speaker 1: next government's business growth plans. This time though it's actually 263 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:46,520 Speaker 1: about farmer Yes. 264 00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:50,040 Speaker 4: So Elo Lilly, the famous US giant, is saying it 265 00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:52,439 Speaker 4: is putting plans to invest in the UK on hold, 266 00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:55,599 Speaker 4: while its complaint is there is this scheme called the 267 00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 4: Voluntary Scheme for Branded Medicines and is effectively a cap 268 00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:03,720 Speaker 4: on raising medicine prices. One of the good things about 269 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:07,560 Speaker 4: the US the UK's massive NHS system is that the 270 00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:09,559 Speaker 4: gives them massive bargain path for drugs. Some of the 271 00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:12,080 Speaker 4: farmer companies had been at ozward for some time, so 272 00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:13,640 Speaker 4: originally when I picked up the story, I thought, oh, 273 00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:15,680 Speaker 4: this is them complaining about that. But then the problem 274 00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:18,640 Speaker 4: with this voluntary branded medicine cap is It was an 275 00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:22,400 Speaker 4: agreement with the government and pharmaceutical companies to only raise 276 00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:26,080 Speaker 4: branded medicine prices by nominal two percent year on year, 277 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:28,880 Speaker 4: and anything above that would have to be taken back 278 00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:31,640 Speaker 4: as a levee for the government because of the pandemic 279 00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:35,240 Speaker 4: and massive NHS backlogs. Currently these companies are handing back 280 00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:38,880 Speaker 4: twenty six point five percent of their revenue back to 281 00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:42,360 Speaker 4: the government and so this is interested Ileally. Astrosenica blamed 282 00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:45,760 Speaker 4: this tax specifically for its decision to invest three hundred 283 00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:48,560 Speaker 4: and sixty million dollars in a manufacturing civilty in Ireland, 284 00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:52,320 Speaker 4: and this now joins a chorus of business voices Astrosenica, 285 00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:56,200 Speaker 4: Nigel Wilsm, Lenggland, General Arm obviously and Ineos who are 286 00:14:56,240 --> 00:15:00,200 Speaker 4: saying that the UK's archaic practices around tax an are 287 00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:03,480 Speaker 4: holding back its competitive industry. So I gave you one 288 00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:05,240 Speaker 4: good story and now this one is very much the 289 00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:07,760 Speaker 4: opposite direction. And I will add finally there's a real 290 00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 4: cherry on the cake. Life sciences are one of the 291 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:12,120 Speaker 4: Chancellor's key five pillars of growth. 292 00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,040 Speaker 2: Okay, well, let's go to The Guardian next. James, following 293 00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:17,360 Speaker 2: up on our story yesterday about the coming wave of 294 00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 2: mortgage refinancing. 295 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:20,800 Speaker 4: Yes, so I was talking, yes, this even about the 296 00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:23,680 Speaker 4: coming income shock that the Barkley CEO was talking about. 297 00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:28,480 Speaker 4: That you have high inflation plus also people refinancing their mortgages. Now, 298 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:31,240 Speaker 4: the Guardians today, after they awake of these inflation figures, 299 00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:34,400 Speaker 4: have been talking to a range of mortgage experts who 300 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:37,600 Speaker 4: are saying you should expect these five percent plus fixed 301 00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:39,640 Speaker 4: rate deals in the coming weeks. 302 00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:40,040 Speaker 9: Now. 303 00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:41,640 Speaker 4: They wrote that in the sort of top line of 304 00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 4: the story, but they said nationwide have already increased their 305 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:47,280 Speaker 4: fixed and tracker rates by zero point four to five 306 00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 4: percent from it today. So it has happened. In the 307 00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:53,760 Speaker 4: blink of an eye. You are seeing these rates go up. Now, 308 00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:55,960 Speaker 4: to give you a schense of what this means, a 309 00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:58,400 Speaker 4: house of when expiring two point nine to nine percent 310 00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:02,120 Speaker 4: deal on a one hundred and fifty pound mortgage would 311 00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:04,560 Speaker 4: have to find an extra one hundred and seventy five 312 00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:07,800 Speaker 4: pounds a month if the replacement was priced at five 313 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:10,720 Speaker 4: point one nine percent. Now that is just for the mortgage. 314 00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:13,040 Speaker 4: That doesn't even count to the fact that then food 315 00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:15,960 Speaker 4: price increases are nearly twenty percent as well. So this 316 00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:18,680 Speaker 4: really sets out the sort of the dangers that are 317 00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 4: coming down A shot for the sort. 318 00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:23,680 Speaker 2: This is Bloomberg Daybreak Europe, your morning brief on the 319 00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:26,760 Speaker 2: stories making news from London to Wall Streets and beyond. 320 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:31,040 Speaker 1: Look for us on your podcast feed every morning, on Apple, Spotify, 321 00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 1: and anywhere else you get your podcasts. 322 00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:36,160 Speaker 2: You can also listen live each morning on London Dab Radio, 323 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:38,560 Speaker 2: the Bloomberg Business app, and Bloomberg dot Com. 324 00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:41,720 Speaker 1: Our flagship New York station, is also available on your 325 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:46,440 Speaker 1: Amazon Alexa devices.
