He's shifted to neutrality, stability or even 21 00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:22,640 Speaker 1: a strong euro, and Deutsche Bank just is no, we 22 00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:25,759 Speaker 1: stay with a weaker euro. Call that is a call 23 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:29,200 Speaker 1: out this morning from George sarre Ellis. He is with 24 00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:31,640 Speaker 1: us now from Deutsche Bank. He's the co head of 25 00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:35,039 Speaker 1: forex research. That you put out a note just this 26 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:38,840 Speaker 1: morning George saying that you remain a stubborn bear on 27 00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:44,000 Speaker 1: the Euro. Indeed, good morning. So the main thing we 28 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:48,400 Speaker 1: looked at is basically where relative expectations lie between the 29 00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 1: Fed and the ECB. And if you look at at 30 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:54,560 Speaker 1: the Fed, you've had a very largely pricing in terms 31 00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:57,200 Speaker 1: of expectations. So at the start of the year the 32 00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:00,040 Speaker 1: market was looking for between two to three hypes and 33 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:04,440 Speaker 1: now we're only pricing one rate hike every twelve months. 34 00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:07,000 Speaker 1: And we simply just don't believe that. We think the 35 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 1: Fed will go at least once, possibly twice UH this year, 36 00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:13,720 Speaker 1: and as a result, we think dollar strengths is going 37 00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:20,200 Speaker 1: to come back how quickly? I it's a very valid 38 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 1: question in terms of the timing. I think the earliest 39 00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 1: is June. So the Fed meets net next week. I 40 00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:29,240 Speaker 1: think it's far too early, so we have pushed back 41 00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:32,840 Speaker 1: our expectations in terms of how quickly we expect the 42 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 1: Euro to weaken. But from our perspective, you need to 43 00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 1: assume that the US is falling into a recession, that 44 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:43,280 Speaker 1: the Fed hiking path stops to to change the broad 45 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:46,520 Speaker 1: view on the dollar. So we had a setback, but 46 00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:49,079 Speaker 1: we're not giving up on the On the positive US, 47 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:51,919 Speaker 1: you if you run the partial differential of the dynamics 48 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:55,080 Speaker 1: of any currency pair, there's always one weighted more. Is 49 00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 1: this about week euro or is it about strong dollar? 50 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 1: It's a it's a great question. I think it is 51 00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:05,520 Speaker 1: more about a strong dollar at this stage because the 52 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 1: ECB will probably be on hold for a long time. 53 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:13,120 Speaker 1: Um that being said, it's interesting because Japan, obviously the 54 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:15,399 Speaker 1: market has been repricing the extent of easing, and yet 55 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 1: the the again has been strengthening a lot more. And 56 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:21,359 Speaker 1: I think the key difference is the flow side. In Europe, 57 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:24,919 Speaker 1: you're still seeing very very large outflows in Japan, those 58 00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:27,840 Speaker 1: are slowing down, So the FED and the dollar are 59 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:29,960 Speaker 1: a big part, but the flow picture is still very 60 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:31,920 Speaker 1: weak in Europe. And if you compare the Euro to 61 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 1: other currencies, it's actually under performing quite substantially this year. 62 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 1: It's one of the worst performers together with the dollar. 63 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:41,360 Speaker 1: Of course, there is a suggestion though that we're starting 64 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 1: to see some improved economic performance in Europe that could 65 00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 1: hold back weakening. So from our perspective, better growth could 66 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:55,920 Speaker 1: counterintuitively be a negative for the Euro. The reason is 67 00:03:55,960 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 1: if you look at portfolio flows, the more growth improved, 68 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 1: so does risk appetite. And you get more outflows, you 69 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 1: get Europeans become more risk positive. So in that way 70 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:09,200 Speaker 1: it behames similar to Japan. So remember when we had 71 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 1: urbonomic growth picked up, the yen started weakening a lot 72 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:16,760 Speaker 1: because the Japanese started buying more off your efforts. So, 73 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:19,720 Speaker 1: so long as the ECB doesn't change in terms of easing, 74 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:22,279 Speaker 1: to me, positive growth is not a positive thing for 75 00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 1: the Euro. What will you listen for from Mr Draggy 76 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 1: this morning? He's going to come out with the usual 77 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 1: statements and so maybe they give us color and corporate 78 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:34,120 Speaker 1: but I'm purchase fine. What will you listen for? It 79 00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:37,960 Speaker 1: dout your bank. So three things. The first one is 80 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 1: commentary around negative rates, so the market is pricing another 81 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:44,800 Speaker 1: ten basis point cuts over the next twelve months. Does 82 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:46,719 Speaker 1: he push back on that? Does he say it's reasonable? 83 00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:49,360 Speaker 1: Does they say they could do more? The second thing 84 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,400 Speaker 1: is how comfortable does he feel with the euro up here? 85 00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 1: Does he try to talk it down a bit? Does 86 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 1: he say it irrelevant? Um? And then the third thing, 87 00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:00,280 Speaker 1: which is my favorite topic, is a helicopter mind. We 88 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 1: publish a very large report on this last week. So 89 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:06,600 Speaker 1: does they call it a Ponty scheme like Mark Krani did, 90 00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:10,279 Speaker 1: or does he look on it more favorably? Does he 91 00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:13,440 Speaker 1: need it? In other words, would he bring it up? 92 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 1: Would he want to wade into that swamp? Yet? I 93 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:20,279 Speaker 1: think he won't bring it up if if he had 94 00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:23,480 Speaker 1: the choice, But in the questions, I suspect it will 95 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 1: be one of the most popular topics, and it's a 96 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:29,840 Speaker 1: response that would be interesting within your wonderful primier helicopters 97 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,800 Speaker 1: one oh one to find the jargon here. What is 98 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:37,760 Speaker 1: helicopter money? Again, that's a great question because so many 99 00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 1: people have different interpretations, and what we try to do 100 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 1: is really trying to separate the different options. So at 101 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 1: one end, we we call quee a form of helicopter money. 102 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,839 Speaker 1: If it's coordinated with fiscals. So if the central bank 103 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 1: goes out and buys bonds but the government is issuing 104 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,159 Speaker 1: more to pay for fiscal expansion, you could call that 105 00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:59,719 Speaker 1: an indirect form of Montreal financing. That's one of the 106 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:04,559 Speaker 1: most conservative side. The least conservative, the most aggressive side 107 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 1: is if the central bank directly credits bank accounts with 108 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:11,279 Speaker 1: free money to people, and I'd call that the most 109 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:15,599 Speaker 1: original form of helicopter Are you saying right out checks 110 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 1: two citizens exactly? Basically credit just give people money for free. Well, 111 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:25,480 Speaker 1: it has to be under the definition, it has to 112 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:29,279 Speaker 1: be coordinated. The the European Central Bank is doing um 113 00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 1: qui right now? Is are they doing a form of 114 00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:36,600 Speaker 1: helicopter money? Uh? Indirectly, I would say they are. And 115 00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:39,720 Speaker 1: the key conclusion from the paper is that if you 116 00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:43,880 Speaker 1: assume things movingcrementally and depending on the shocks, if you 117 00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 1: look at Europe, it's been moving incrementally throughout this crisis. 118 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 1: So remember we started from the l t R O 119 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 1: s move to negative rates, then of course qui. So 120 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 1: the argument is that if you do get another big 121 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 1: shock potentially recession, it doesn't take that much of a 122 00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 1: leap of faith. Have moved to the more aggressive forms 123 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:05,120 Speaker 1: where potentially the ECB is credit in cash two people's 124 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:10,720 Speaker 1: bank accounts. Now, when you talk about crediting cash to people, 125 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 1: we have in the United States, um within the last 126 00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 1: decade a couple of times sent people checks and they 127 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:21,120 Speaker 1: put the money in the bank as opposed to spending it. 128 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 1: So why would helicopter money, if it's a sort of 129 00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:28,480 Speaker 1: one time giveaway from the central bank or from the 130 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:31,960 Speaker 1: legislature on the fiscal side, be any better than any 131 00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:36,160 Speaker 1: other form of stimulus. So I think this is the 132 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 1: key distinction, which is does the central bank to it 133 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 1: or does the government to it? Because if the government 134 00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:44,720 Speaker 1: is doing it and people perceive it as a temporary event, 135 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 1: whereby debt to GDP rises, eventually tax will rise in 136 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:52,080 Speaker 1: the future, people will save that because they expect for 137 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:53,960 Speaker 1: it to be taken back. But if it's done by 138 00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:57,320 Speaker 1: a central bank, it's perceived as a permanent increase in 139 00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 1: the monterrey supply, which doesn't impact the overall level of 140 00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 1: debt in the economy, then you would expect to hire 141 00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:07,640 Speaker 1: propensity to spend. Now that that's a key distinction, I 142 00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:10,360 Speaker 1: think Tom this has got to be seen as an 143 00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:13,840 Speaker 1: not not just cash in people's pockets, but an increase 144 00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:19,480 Speaker 1: in the money supply, right exactly. I mean, George, this 145 00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 1: is unconventional policy. What is the likelihood of any flavor 146 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 1: of the helicopter money or is it just a rhetorical 147 00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 1: stick in the media. I would say at this stage, 148 00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:34,480 Speaker 1: in terms of the next few months, it's very unlikely, 149 00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:37,800 Speaker 1: because obviously they've just announced this big program in Europe 150 00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:41,240 Speaker 1: and growth is doing reasonably well. But if we try 151 00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:43,280 Speaker 1: and look forward to the next two to three years, 152 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:46,600 Speaker 1: if we get a potential negative, big negative shop to 153 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 1: the global economy and we're not talking about slowdown in 154 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 1: growth but an actual and outright recession, I think we'll 155 00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:58,760 Speaker 1: be talking about this concept much much quicker than people expect. 156 00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:02,520 Speaker 1: George gonna come back. George Tavellis with us H with 157 00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:06,559 Speaker 1: Deutsche Bank this morning several of usm I get Stravitas, 158 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:10,560 Speaker 1: Who does this? Why you help me here? We book 159 00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 1: Stravitas and Saravellos together, and you expect me, you do 160 00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 1: this just to ruin my act. I mean, Mike, it's 161 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 1: a it's just not unfair. Anyways, We'll come back with 162 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:25,520 Speaker 1: Georgie of Deutsche Bank, UH and and talk here further 163 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:28,040 Speaker 1: to prepare you for that important press conference. Mike, what 164 00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:30,760 Speaker 1: are we doing? Are we taking all of the press conference? 165 00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:32,680 Speaker 1: Are we going to do our headlines that? Do we 166 00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:35,720 Speaker 1: have a plan. We're going to listen. Yeah, We're gonna 167 00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:37,680 Speaker 1: listen in and see if he takes us in a 168 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:42,959 Speaker 1: direction that needs um. Yeah.

John Carney always interesting out 247 00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:30,240 Speaker 1: with incredibly important voting analysis hours days. I say, after 248 00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 1: the Republican primary park Slope, Gwanas Brooklyn A D fifty 249 00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:39,240 Speaker 1: two and E D seventy seven, here are the votes. 250 00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:47,360 Speaker 1: Donald Trump one, Jack Cruce zero, John Kasi zero. There 251 00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 1: was one Republican vote. Would you please tell our global 252 00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:55,760 Speaker 1: audience about park Slope Gwanas Park Slope is not known 253 00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:59,880 Speaker 1: for its a Republican stronghold, nor is this is this 254 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:04,640 Speaker 1: is across? I think that's kind of obvious. You probably 255 00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:07,560 Speaker 1: won't see a lot of campaigning there. Okay, well, there 256 00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:10,000 Speaker 1: we go with your politicop think Michael McKie, why don't 257 00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:12,840 Speaker 1: you bring back George with really an important call on 258 00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 1: strong dollar week euro as we go to Mario dragging 259 00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:18,000 Speaker 1: in ten minutes and he's very interested in what Mario 260 00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:21,160 Speaker 1: dog might have to say about helicopter money. The bank 261 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:24,560 Speaker 1: is already doing negative interest rates. Helicopter money would be 262 00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:29,120 Speaker 1: perhaps the next step. I'm wondering what you think of 263 00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:33,960 Speaker 1: negative interest rates and in comparison George to helicopter money. 264 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:39,120 Speaker 1: A lot of people criticizing negative rates now sure, so 265 00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:42,480 Speaker 1: I think helicopter money would be much more powerful. One 266 00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:46,600 Speaker 1: of the main criticisms of negative rates has been the 267 00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:50,760 Speaker 1: impact on bank profitability because banks can't cut deposit rates 268 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:53,360 Speaker 1: um and that such of their profit margins get hit. 269 00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:57,280 Speaker 1: But the beauty of helicopter money is all you do 270 00:15:57,320 --> 00:15:59,880 Speaker 1: is you literally print money and give it to people 271 00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:03,160 Speaker 1: and that that should just ray spending. So in an 272 00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:06,760 Speaker 1: environment where rates to zero h it's it's the natural 273 00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:10,280 Speaker 1: next step to do, and it's it's unlimited. Because central 274 00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:14,120 Speaker 1: banks have an infant boanergy. You Deutsche Bank have such 275 00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 1: a research capability and heritage with with not only Peter Hooper, 276 00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:23,840 Speaker 1: but Peter Garber and others over the years. Michael Dooley, 277 00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:28,760 Speaker 1: what happens with more negative rates? The word I use 278 00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:33,640 Speaker 1: is as quadratic, It's a squared function. More things happened, 279 00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:37,040 Speaker 1: deeper things happen. Do you agree with that that the 280 00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:41,720 Speaker 1: more negative rates we experiment with, the more interesting outcomes happen. 281 00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:46,320 Speaker 1: I completely agree, And that's exactly what we saw in 282 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 1: Japan earlier, earlier this year, where we obviously got the 283 00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:53,760 Speaker 1: exact opposite effect with with what we expected. And I 284 00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:56,360 Speaker 1: think it mostly the issue goes back to the impact 285 00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:59,640 Speaker 1: on the banking sector and possibility because if the banks 286 00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:02,760 Speaker 1: become is coverse, if they become scared of negative rates, 287 00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:06,640 Speaker 1: then you could actually end up with lending contracting rather 288 00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:10,760 Speaker 1: than increasing. And I think it's it's really the bank side, 289 00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:13,200 Speaker 1: the bank channel that's the most important, which drug get 290 00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:16,240 Speaker 1: paid attention to. In the last press conference, he cited 291 00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:20,119 Speaker 1: concerns around bank profitability. Would you keep negative rates in 292 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:22,520 Speaker 1: place and do helicopter money or replace one with the 293 00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:26,919 Speaker 1: other In an ideal world, I'd i'd replace one with another. 294 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:29,600 Speaker 1: I don't think we'd need negative rates if we have 295 00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:33,160 Speaker 1: the options. Central banks have the option of crediting money 296 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:35,360 Speaker 1: to people at the end of the day, you can 297 00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:38,200 Speaker 1: see as a form of interest, but rather than rewarding 298 00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:43,119 Speaker 1: holding holding people the holdings of cash you it's a 299 00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:46,000 Speaker 1: more extable form of interest. You pay people for every 300 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 1: unit of themselves. George, I'm going to be very delicate here, 301 00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:52,960 Speaker 1: with great respects for your compliance issues. There's a lot 302 00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:55,480 Speaker 1: written out about Deutsche Bank or Commerce Bank, but the 303 00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:58,600 Speaker 1: medium and the smaller German banks as well. If you 304 00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:01,600 Speaker 1: stay to us that more negative rates or existing negative 305 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:05,760 Speaker 1: rates or chronic negative rates have some form of banking 306 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:11,239 Speaker 1: channel function. What are you observing in your Germany in 307 00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:14,800 Speaker 1: terms of what the banking channel does to the people, 308 00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:18,879 Speaker 1: the savers, the retirees of Germany. Is there a direct 309 00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:24,479 Speaker 1: follow on from banking channel two savers. The best thing 310 00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:27,239 Speaker 1: I can cite is the ECB bank lending survey that 311 00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:31,879 Speaker 1: was released and then they explicitly asked banks around the 312 00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:36,320 Speaker 1: question of how quee negative rates is impacting profitability, and interestingly, 313 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:39,720 Speaker 1: for the first time banks highlighted it as as a 314 00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:44,399 Speaker 1: constraint to profitability. Obviously, if you're a saver, then uh, 315 00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:48,520 Speaker 1: negative rates hurt your returns as well. So I think 316 00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:52,080 Speaker 1: the evidence is certainly starting to show up. Are we 317 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:58,080 Speaker 1: seeing any evidence that people are holding cash instead? We 318 00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:02,000 Speaker 1: aren't actually so, and not really seeing a big withdrawal 319 00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:04,800 Speaker 1: of of cash from the banking system, whether you look 320 00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:07,159 Speaker 1: at the banknotes that are being circulated in Europe or 321 00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:11,600 Speaker 1: even places like Switzerland. But I think that's part of 322 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:14,840 Speaker 1: the issue why bank profitability is being hurt, precisely because 323 00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:18,680 Speaker 1: banks can't can't interest rate to negative pass them onto depositors. 324 00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:21,520 Speaker 1: Yet they're at its side, as in the bonds they 325 00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:24,920 Speaker 1: own yield drop. That's why the profitability is dropping. George, 326 00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:27,920 Speaker 1: thank you so much, greatly appreciated. George servillis with Deutsche 327 00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:31,240 Speaker 1: Bank with important research and really, Mike, I'm going to 328 00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:34,080 Speaker 1: suggest what has become an outlier call a strong dollar 329 00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:38,199 Speaker 1: week euro. I mean that was fascinating. Well, you're not 330 00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:42,600 Speaker 1: going in George's direction right now? Yeah, what preparation for 331 00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:46,440 Speaker 1: this press confers Mike? Why is this press conference different 332 00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:49,919 Speaker 1: than Janet Yellen's quickly, Well, he does one every meeting, 333 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:53,160 Speaker 1: and also he talks much more about what they might 334 00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:55,920 Speaker 1: do in the field. Uses it more of a signaling event. 335 00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:59,200 Speaker 1: It's not nearly his measure, like we're sure Yellen will 336 00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:01,679 Speaker 1: go McKee.
