Here's what's making news in science, Technology, 86 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:08,120 Speaker 1: engineering and math. A Swedish proposal to ban imports of 87 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 1: American lobsters by European Union countries is being disputed by 88 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:15,360 Speaker 1: US and Canadian scientists who say the move isn't supported 89 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:19,360 Speaker 1: by science. US and Canadian lobsterman export two hundred million 90 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 1: dollars worth of lobsters to European markets each year. The 91 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:25,400 Speaker 1: call for banning the imports follows discovery of thirty two 92 00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 1: American lobsters in Swedish waters and officials their fear and 93 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:33,240 Speaker 1: invasive species that could spread disease and overtake the European variety. 94 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:36,720 Speaker 1: The US government scientists argues there's too much at stake 95 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 1: to act without robust, peer reviewed science. Well, the catch 96 00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:43,400 Speaker 1: have falling star look might not be a factor anymore. 97 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:47,240 Speaker 1: Lena Okajima, an entrepreneur in Japan, wants to get into 98 00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 1: business of creating tiny artificial meteors. Her company could start 99 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:54,200 Speaker 1: offering on demand meteor showers by twenty eighteen, made with 100 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:57,760 Speaker 1: small pellets released remotely from a small satellite. The shooting 101 00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:00,120 Speaker 1: stars will be available in different colors and could be 102 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:03,280 Speaker 1: millions of could be seen by millions of people at 103 00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:06,680 Speaker 1: a time in urban areas. She's thinking of theme park operators, 104 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:10,039 Speaker 1: event organizers, and governments as the most likely customers. The 105 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:13,719 Speaker 1: media showers also have scientific application because they'll take place 106 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:16,280 Speaker 1: in the mesosphere, a part of the sky that's too 107 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 1: low for satellites and too high for weather balloons and aircraft. 108 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:23,160 Speaker 1: Spectral analysis of on demand shooting stars could help scientists 109 00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:25,880 Speaker 1: learn more about part of the atmosphere that may hold 110 00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:29,919 Speaker 1: key information about climate change. That's this morning's Bloomberg and 111 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:33,039 Speaker 1: j I t stem report Michael Babo and thank you 112 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:36,039 Speaker 1: very much. Well, there's a lot going on out there 113 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:40,159 Speaker 1: that investors have to take consideration of, from Brexit to 114 00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:44,920 Speaker 1: Trump to what's going on in the Federal Reserve. And 115 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:48,560 Speaker 1: one way you do that is through derivative strategies. You 116 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,040 Speaker 1: can do your hedging. Edmund Shing is Global head of 117 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 1: Equity Derivative Strategy for BNP Parabagh he joins us. Now, Uh, 118 00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:58,560 Speaker 1: of all those things out there, I guess I'm just 119 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:02,719 Speaker 1: kind of curious what is drawing the most interesting? What 120 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:05,640 Speaker 1: are people most interested in hedging these days? In other words, 121 00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 1: what's what's the greatest amount of uncertainty out there? Well, 122 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:14,040 Speaker 1: I think you would have to say political uncertainty is 123 00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:17,920 Speaker 1: probably still number one of the agenda. I'm sitting in London, 124 00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:21,840 Speaker 1: and clearly within Europe we have a number of issues 125 00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 1: politically to deal with, not just within the UK as 126 00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:27,360 Speaker 1: you've mentioned, but also you have the rest of Europe. 127 00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:29,960 Speaker 1: You have elections coming up again in Spain where we 128 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 1: had an inconclusive result in the first general election. We 129 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:37,840 Speaker 1: have local elections in Italy, we will have elections in Germany, 130 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 1: and not to mention of course your little election state 131 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 1: side in November, so we really have really very much 132 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:48,960 Speaker 1: an election charged year um and at the same time, 133 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:52,240 Speaker 1: people are very much focused on central bank policies and 134 00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 1: to divergence or maybe not, as it would see, in 135 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 1: between what happens in the US and of course what 136 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,560 Speaker 1: happens in the rest will namely of course Europe and 137 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:04,240 Speaker 1: Japan in particular. Well, let's break that down. If I 138 00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:07,720 Speaker 1: am worried about what's going to happen with the British election, 139 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:14,160 Speaker 1: shall we say, then, what what? What? What are people buying? Well, 140 00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:18,520 Speaker 1: it's actually it's quite difficult because what people are actually 141 00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:20,520 Speaker 1: buying is not a lot. And I think what we 142 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 1: find is people generally are avoiding, for instance, equities within 143 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 1: the European sphere for that reason, they're not trying to 144 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:30,920 Speaker 1: take a view one way or the other within equities 145 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:32,880 Speaker 1: and rather thing well, actually, if I didn't want to 146 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:36,600 Speaker 1: express a view, I would rather express in other assets classes, 147 00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,880 Speaker 1: and of course foreign exchange would be the most obvious 148 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:42,160 Speaker 1: one where we have seen big moves in volatility. So 149 00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:45,760 Speaker 1: currently volatility probably has been the number one area which 150 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:49,000 Speaker 1: people have looked to express a view auto hedge their 151 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 1: views on on on the various political events. Is it 152 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 1: the same story here in the United States with the 153 00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:59,520 Speaker 1: Trump risk? I think less so less so, I think people. 154 00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 1: But again, if you look at something as simple as 155 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:05,439 Speaker 1: the VIX index, clearly it is very low. And I 156 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 1: yet this morning was looking at the volatility of the 157 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:11,720 Speaker 1: VIX index, of the volatility of the volatility which is 158 00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:14,679 Speaker 1: a second rift of not even, and that's actually sitting 159 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:16,560 Speaker 1: at a twelve month low right now. So we would 160 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 1: see that despite the obvious political risks that you might 161 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 1: perceive coming from um, from from the Trump factor, in 162 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:27,880 Speaker 1: actual factor, markets are quite calm and taking it very 163 00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:31,200 Speaker 1: very much in their stride. And you know, you have 164 00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:35,120 Speaker 1: the S and T obviously bumping up against thirty, which 165 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:38,440 Speaker 1: for me is a very important resistance level. Um Actually, 166 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:41,600 Speaker 1: I am quite surprised with that high and that we're 167 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:44,240 Speaker 1: not taking into account more risk than it seems the 168 00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 1: market is at the moment. Well, we've got a central 169 00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:50,200 Speaker 1: bank risk every month, or you know in the United 170 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:52,640 Speaker 1: States and now with the ECB every six weeks. But 171 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:56,880 Speaker 1: we don't get to political elections but every couple of years. 172 00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:00,960 Speaker 1: How far in advance do people generally start putting money 173 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 1: into hedging risk in a political set well, I think 174 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:08,120 Speaker 1: generally the problem is when you look far enough ahead 175 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:11,719 Speaker 1: with elections, you never really know what the actual policies are. 176 00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 1: And and ultimately, I think, if anything, people do tend 177 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:21,000 Speaker 1: to overreact to the various policy statements of the different candidates, 178 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:26,040 Speaker 1: because in actual fact, the best policy, generally for all 179 00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:28,760 Speaker 1: the just the best way that politicians can treat the 180 00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:32,280 Speaker 1: economy is through normally a policy benign neglect. I. The 181 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:34,439 Speaker 1: less they do in meddling in the economy, the better. 182 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 1: And so typically what will happen is investors will overreact 183 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:42,760 Speaker 1: to every pronouncement by candidates before elections. But the ultimate 184 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 1: truth is candidates will never be put into force many 185 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:47,960 Speaker 1: of the things they actually would like to or say 186 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 1: they would like to.
