"Radio on the ground everywhere. And I'm Brian Curtis in Hong Kong. Let's check this hour's top business stories and the markets. The U.S. Federal Reserve is expected to deliver a 25 basis point interest rate increase at tomorrow's meeting, a pause in the hiking campaign is also expected. Former fed Dallas president Robert Kaplan. We don't have great fiscal discipline right now. If I were at the fed, what I would be saying publicly is we'll do our part on monetary policy, but we need the rest of the government to do its parts if we're going to fight inflation. And I'm not hearing that message yet from the fed. Separately, a group of U.S. lawmakers wrote to fed chief J Powell and urged him to pause interest rate hikes. The senators include Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders. They said that recent bank failures and the lagging impact of earlier rate hikes leave the U.S. economy more vulnerable to an overreaction by the fed. Again, Robert caplan, we have even gone into the credit cycle yet. We're about to go into a credit cycle because the downturn is ahead of us. So the worry is many of these banks don't have as much capital as we thought they did, and they're about to go into a credit cycle. And most of them, I can tell you firsthand in talking to many banks CEOs are dealing with this by shrinking their loan portfolio because they can't raise equity because their stocks are low. To that, PAC west and western alliance led a big sell off in regional lenders in the markets today. PAC west shares down 28% at a record low, and western alliance tumbling 15%. Bloomberg's max Reyes. I would say part of why they've kind of been in the crosshairs of investors is because they are both sort of sunbelt banks with a lot of commercial business and that means in turn that they have uninsured deposits, which became really top of mind after you saw the bank runs in March. In corporate news, AMD gave a lackluster sales forecast for the current quarter, the company said second quarter revenue will be 5.3 billion analysts were looking for 5.51 billion. It suggests that AMD is still recovering from a post pandemic funk as demand remains sluggish. Here's Bloomberg's Ian king. The obviously in the run up to the lockdowns of the pandemic. Everybody ran out on board a PC or something similar for their kids so that they could work at home. And the PC industry said, oh, this is a sign that the PC is important has come back. And but then when we've come back to work, when we've gone back to school, we've left our PCs at home and we haven't felt the need to buy a new one. Looking ahead, AMD, like its rival Intel seized recovery coming in the second half of the year. But investors didn't seem to like this story, they sold the stock down more than 6% in late trading. And in Asian market action, the hanging index is down 1.6% in Seoul that Cosby is down 8 tenths of 1%. Global news brought to you by 2700 journalists and analysts in a 120 countries.

"Just gone 6 30 in the morning right here in Hong Kong. It is 6 30. In the evening on Wall Street, I'm Rashad salami. And I'm Brian Curtis here in the Hong Kong studios right next to rich. We've got trading underway in 90 minutes. And that's coming up in Sydney Tokyo and Seoul and then three hours later Hong Kong and Shanghai. Such is the climate in markets now that they actually breathed a sigh of relief out of 75 basis point hike the notion of instead of 100. So that was pretty interesting about the day's trading today coming back from a 2% dive in the S&P. We'll get to the markets with Doug Chris and momentarily, but for now some of the top stories rich. Yeah, we got the two Federal Reserve officials saying that they will back a 75 basis point rate hike this month that of course after that hot print on retail inflation. So there's president Jim bullard telling nikkei Asia that the 75 basis point hike has a lot of virtue to it and fed governor Chris Wallace in markets may have gotten a little ahead of themselves in betting on a 100 basis point move. While it also said that in the medium term view, policy make a suspect a soft landing is very plausible. Based on the labor market, I just don't see how it ever said. Inconceivable to have a recession with an unemployment rate at 3.6%. Lola said that he would support further rate hikes until he sees, quote, a significant moderation in core PCE prices. The fed chair in the former vice chair have been cleared of wrongdoing related to their trading activity. The fed's inspector general said Jay Powell and Richard clarita did not break any rules or laws. However, investigations into trading by other former regional fed chiefs are ongoing. The former fed presidents Eric rosengren in Boston and Robert caplan in Dallas stepped down last year. The two faced questions about their unusual trading activity back in 2020. All right, well, what have we got here as well in terms of the leaders of two big U.S. banks taking an upbeat tone in the face of a potential recession? JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon and Morgan Stanley chief James goolman are not steering their firm toward shelter. Here is Jamie down. There's a range of potential outcomes from a soft landing to a hard landing driven by how much rates go up, effective quantitative tightening but effective volatile markets. It's not going to change how we run the company. We've managed through recesses before. We'll manage it again. I'm quite comfortable to do it quite well. Time and also said that the consumer right now is in great shape at the same time, go and say that a deep or dramatic recession in the U.S. is unlikely saying that Morgan Stanley is long the U.S. and most of its businesses. Now that's just by the upbeat remarks, second quarter results were both banks were disappointing in JPMorgan temporarily suspended share buybacks. We get Citigroup and Wells Fargo on Friday. Now, the one thing Brian, certainly I didn't just say a few weeks ago, be prepared for a hurricane. Yeah, he did, and he sort of stood by those comments, but still said that the consumer was doing well. So it's a strange dichotomy. Let's get to Doug prisoner, who he'll figure it all out. And I don't know about that. I don't know, hurricanes. I don't know much about those hurricanes. I think the comments today from Jim bullard were very interesting. You talked about his inclination to back a 75 basis point rate hike. So he told nikkei Asia if you accept that fact, 75 basis points this month. That would leave the fed just 75 basis points away from a neutral rate. So assume that we get another 75 basis points in September. If that is the case, according to bullard, maybe it's possible that there is a kind of a halt to tightening, at least for the time being, and it is that view, I think, that helped you bring the equity market off session lows today. We ended mixed NASDAQ composite was actually higher today by just a tenth of 1%. The Dow, though, down a half of 1% in the S&P 500 off about three tenths of 1%, volume well below average, and that may have exaggerated some of the movement that we had. Tomorrow, we're going to get to options expiration, so it's likely that there was also some positioning tied to those contracts expiring, and maybe we're looking at a bit of volatility tomorrow. Quite the rally in the dollar with the Bloomberg dollar spot index finishing at a record high we were up 6 tenths of 1% today. What a collapse in the end, we are now trading at a one 39 handle against the greenback we were down by more than 1% in New York trading. And the Euro trading around parity with the greenback, a dollar, someone to put it in another way, one spot zero zero two one against the greenback. So if you're traveling to Europe and you can withstand the heat wave, you're going to do very well when it comes to foreign exchange. Now, we also have a word that the Chinese automaker BYD saying that preliminary net income for the first half of the year will be up by more than 200% from its previous corresponding period that is quite a jump and the stock today. These are the ADRs that trade here in New York were up about 7 and a half percent. We are also being told that Chinese bureaucrats are studying the energy outlook and then proposing to end near two year ban on Australian coal. We'll be talking more about that as we continue here on daybreak, Asia, and I just want to let you guys know that we got PMI data for New Zealand. This is the June manufacturing PMI. We are now in contraction territory with a reading of 49.7. We'll take another look at markets in about 15 minutes, rich. All right, indeed. And we can now check the

"President succeeding Robert caplan who resigned last year following disclosures about his personal trading activity in 2020 the appointment is effective August 22nd the Dallas fed's next turn to vote on monetary policy is in 2023 Among the names reporting after the closing bell today The Walt Disney Company Disney shares down now by 1.2% I'm Charlie pellet that David Weston is a Bloomberg business flash Thank you so much Charlie Powell I want to turn back to Ukraine right now and quite specifically a country nearby and that is turkey The U.S. has had a complicated relationship with turkey over the years including over the S 400 anti aircraft weapons that were bought from the Soviet Union from Russia But at the present time turkey has a potentially pivotal role to play in perhaps bringing a resolution to the conflict in Ukraine For his viewpoint on this we turn to a true expert on turkey Steven cook senior fellow for Middle East and Africa studies at the council on foreign relations and a columnist for foreign policy So Stephen thank you so much for being with us The thing that caught my eye at least on this was a report on The Wall Street Journal that the Biden administration is asking for the sale of advanced weapons including F-16s to turkey which a short while ago I would have thought it would be almost impossible giving the problem over the S 400s Yeah that's right It would have 6 months ago been unthinkable that the Biden administration would put its weight behind the Turkish request for new F-16s and upgrades of other F-16s But because turkey has played an important role for NATO and in support of Ukraine in the conflict so far by supplying the Ukrainians with quite lethal drones and at the same time holding itself out as a potential mediator in the conflict this has helped paper over many of the differences between the United States and turkey such that there is a real possibility that this sale of the 16th could go through It's terribly dangerous to get too simplistic and I could be guilty of incurring that to ask whose side is turkey on But it appears that turkey doesn't necessarily want to be on either side in terms of with Russia or with the United States It wants to play something of an intermediate role intermediary role That's right You could say that turkey has leaned in a direction of Ukraine especially since it has supplied this drone technology that has been so effective against Russian armor But at the same time turkey has not sanctioned Russia You can still fly between Istanbul and Moscow And turkey has over the course of the last decade developed strong economic ties and the two leaders the Turkish president Recep Tayyip and Vladimir Putin also have strong ties Makes turkey a potential mediator in the conflict Now that may not bring the war to an end We seem to have gone beyond the point of an actual negotiated solution to the conflict But in terms of providing humanitarian aid and helping set up humanitarian corridors turkey may be an honest broker between Kyiv and Moscow I'm trying to put ourselves in the shoes of president Erdoğan What are the strategic interests of turkey when it comes to this war in Ukraine Well I think that the Turks want to establish themselves as a regional power on par with other America's other of the United States is traditional allies in Europe President Erdoğan has long said that turkey needs an independent foreign policy needs to be looked at upon the United States and its NATO allies as an independent and powerful actor in all of the regions in which it touches whether it's the eastern Mediterranean the Middle East Europe the Caucasus or in fact close to Eurasia where this war is ongoing So that is clearly how president Erdoğan has positioned turkey And thus far he seems to be succeeding As I recall early on in the war turkey closed the bus straight to the Russian warships Does that remain in place and how important is that to Russia Just a slight clarification on that David Turkey closed the Bosporus strait to warships Right So it's Russian warships It's American warships It's French warships It's important important point It wasn't just Russian warships I got you And Russian warships can traverse the straight so long as they are home ported in the Black Sea Thus far the Russians haven't made the move to try to resupply their fleet So it hasn't been an issue But still it was an important step and for turkey to take because the Russians would likely want to use the strait to resupply Its naval forces So not to take too much away from the Turks on this issue but it was a broader blanket prevention of warships in the strait Really important clarification Thank you for that Talk about NATO and Turkish relations with NATO I mean obviously it's a member of NATO at the same time That has been sometimes a somewhat strained relationship Does that bring as it were turkey back into the NATO fold resoundingly Well I don't know about resoundingly but certainly over the course of the last decade turkey has been a NATO ally but not entirely a partner in NATO And the purchase of the Russian manufacturer to S 400 anti aircraft system was something that really had an impact on turkey's relations with its NATO partners Now that it is playing this role in the Ukraine crisis And in particular as I said the supply of drones to the Ukrainian armed forces it seems to have provided some momentum for turkey to repair those relations inside NATO And for turkey to reinforce the argument that it is a strong install where member of NATO And that it is prepared to act along with its NATO allies But still there are problems between turkey and Greece a wall all of this is going on Turkey has violated Greek airspace in the GNC more than dozens of times There's been an increase in that kind of activity over the course of the last couple of months So while turkey has proven its metal as a NATO ally in.

"The Federal Reserve bank of Dallas has announced appointment of Laurie Logan as its next president and chief executive officer to explain the significance of this move We welcome now piggy Collins She is our Washington bureau chief So picky tell us about miss Logan So this is interesting David because miss Logan Laurie Logan has been at the New York fed for a while and was very integral in trying to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic when it broke in 2020 She is known and respected as really understanding markets So it certainly is interesting There was a lot of pressure on the Dallas fed to do a diverse search for this candidate that replaced Robert caplan after trading scandal last year So it does remain to be seen whether or not this will be something that a wide group of people feel is a good call but it is someone that is certainly known and has worked in the Federal Reserve system for a long time Yeah I must say I don't know her but from her credentials what her experience has been she must be very competent and very qualified You go to the heart of something that is very tricky and I must say piggy particularly tricky for somebody of my gender in my race to raise the question of diversity Because we don't want to reduce miss Logan just to the fact that she's a woman at the same time This has been an issue raised again and again by Congress and talked about by the fed So she is female which is an advance Is that correct That's right I mean in terms of the Federal Reserve system there's certainly been a lot of pressure as there has been on other industries and other agencies to really look at diversity in the process of hires And we saw at the Boston fed just recently as well where there was a retirement last fall where they appointed a woman to run the Boston fed as well So we are seeing an opening up in terms of diversity but whether or not this will be whatever one would have wanted It still remains to be a question But she is someone who certainly knows the markets very well given her time at the New York fed The question will be how does she transition to this role now at a regional level And when it comes to diversity obviously it's also a matter of race and ethnicity So that will play out as it does Why don't you ask you to stay with us if you would Peggy our Washington bureau chief because we want to turn now to those CPI numbers that came out this morning and welcome Lindsey piggs as she's stifle chief economist So Lindsey thanks so much for being with us To go to you first they came out They're a little less than they were last month higher than expected and they're still at a 40 year high So what do you make of these numbers Well I think it's pretty clear that inflation is still at an elevated level We did see a slightly slower pace of ascent coming down from that 8.5 to 8.3 but at this point I think the market is looking at the fact that inflation is still elevated And it's likely to remain elevated for some time continuing to put pressure on the fed then to maintain a relatively aggressive approach to policy going forward Fascinating And Peggy what did you make of the numbers as well Well I think as we were just talking about the good news is that inflation may have peaked right The numbers are coming down a little bit But in terms of the market reaction it wasn't great because it wasn't as much as people had hoped So there are some silver lining but I think what was digested was that we could remain at very elevated levels of inflation for a longer time than people were hoping Lindsey every he's asking whether it's peaked or not And I guess technically it may have peaked if it keeps going down It came down a little bit But perhaps the most important question is how quickly will it come back down I mean what do you expecting by the end of the year for example with inflation I think it's a pretty aggressive call to say that we've peaked out of inflation at this point The moderate decline is more likely a reflection of the improvement that we saw at the start of the year in terms of loosening international supply chains And of course this was before Russia invaded Ukraine More recently however against the backdrop of a second and third round of lockdowns overseas not to mention the international conflict intensifying it's very likely that we see additional pressures price pressures coming down the pipeline Remember it takes months for disruptions to filter into these price measures meaning the more recent fallout stemming from these variables has likely not yet been felt So whether we're at peak or we return to peak levels again splitting hairs it's likely that inflation does remain quite elevated and we don't see a discernible downward trend until 2023 Lindsay since Jay Powell's news conference last week 75 basis points whether it's on the table or off the table has become sort of a parlor game for us to play Did these numbers make it more likely it's still on the table No they really don't This plays right into the fed's expectations that inflation is broad based and inflation is going to remain elevated for quite some time Even looking at the fed's inflation forecast to the committee is not expecting a noticeable decline in headline prices until as I suggested into 2023 Yes they are looking for some modest improvement by the end of the year And we could still likely see that But again today's report a one month report does not change the fed's pathway And it's likely to reiterate that or reinforce a 50 basis point increase in June but going forward into the second half even with still high prices If the economy begins to soften I would suspect the fed backs off to 25 basis point increases Boy that's interesting Peggy one of the things was the market reaction and I never get the markets right But I was surprised actually that bond yields didn't go up Right I mean I think the question is just really how the market is digesting this elevated inflation for a more persistent period of time It's Lindsay was just saying.

"Your dual mandate stable prices and maximum employment especially when the unemployment rate for black workers is still roughly double roughly twice the rate for white workers So unemployment rates for all racial groups have come down a lot and are now much closer to where they were before the pandemic hit So That's one thing I would say And that's important But the bigger point is this I do not at this time see the two sides of the mandate as intention I don't because you can see that the labor market is out of balance You can see that there's a labor shortage There aren't enough people to fill these job openings and companies can't hire and wages are moving up at levels that would not over time be consistent with 2% inflation over time And of course everyone loves to see wages go up and it's a great thing but you want them to go up at a sustainable level Because these wages are to some extent being eaten up by inflation So what that really means is to get the kind of labor market we really want to get We really want to have a labor market that serves all Americans especially to people in the lower income part of the distribution especially them To do that you've got to have price stability And we've got to get back to price stability so that we can have a labor market where people's wages aren't being eaten up by inflation And where we can have a long expansion too That's the good thing is you can have as we have We've had several of On a two year to two 65 63 So what have we got Equities are We've got yields lower We've got a dollar that's weaker and later it seems to me that just batting away the question about 75 basis points was sufficient to generate a monster rally in this market What does that tell you I mean honestly the idea that this was an outlier case that people thought that a 75 basis point rate hike was on the table for June to simply taking that off the table led to a rally that's one of the biggest that we've seen in weeks How does this really cohere with this idea that they have I'm sorry but credibility if they're basically turbocharging a market and leading people to basically reduce their near term rate hiking bets at a time when inflation shows no sign of slowing down Alongside Tom Kean and Lisa bravis I'm Jonathan farrow Let's listen to the chairman and south from what he had to say about 75 basis points 75 basis point in an increase is not something the committee is actively considering Assuming that economic and financial conditions evolve in ways that are consistent with our expectations there's a broad sense on the committee that additional 50 basis increases should be on 50 basis points which should be on the table for the next couple of meetings They chairman of the Federal Reserve TK that just goes to show how much was priced in this market And how difficult it is to out hawk this market with expectations so elevated going into this meeting He mentioned the 75 basis points and I would suggest John after that off the question from Colby Smith to the Financial Times he gave some immense nuance of neutrality And the red sticky that Bloomberg produced a 1448 says it all won't hesitate to go higher than neutral if needed and there seemed to be almost a massive instantaneous sigh of relief over the banded Ness the malleability of the study of neutrality And I really think that was something exceptionally important in this huge market move There is a ton of debate as to whether they will go beyond neutral And how much higher they will ultimately go in the end destination as well When I go through some dates with you all now just to work out where we go in here So we've got June and July June 15th July 27th they're the next couple of meetings for the chairman is referring to and basically put in a 50 basis point rate hike on the table We have CPI prints on May 11th June 10th July 13th August 10th And after July you've got a meeting from the Federal Reserve on September 21st This Tom for me for many people at for the moment at least puts the summer to bed Take you to Jackson hole you reset TK you look at the data that's come in and then we can have a bigger conversation about the future because as you point out the move to neutral expeditiously a word they like to use is largely baked in now but what next stuff to that is going to be dependent on what this data looks like through the summer The calculation and neutral is huge huge debate I looked at one paper from the late Robert caplan of the Dallas fed And John they have three measurements of neutral within that paper And I'm not willing to say if neutrals July if neutrals September if neutrals beyond that but what I heard was a chairman who made clear they are going to be very supple as they move forward on the data trying to figure out where that neutrality is Well Wayne witnessed just then the lace over the last hour or so I think it was the chairman Tapping the brakes on a runaway hawkish train What you get in after that as a consequence is an equity market that's higher and arguably financial conditions that are looser It's going to be interesting to see how this evolves for the next few weeks and months because I think we should remind our audience of what happened at the last fed meeting when the NASDAQ absolutely ripped by more than three and a half percent and then the following month was absolutely dreadful So fed day price section doesn't tell you everything Let's just caveat that there But financial conditions tighten for a reason And that was the objective Lisa This I don't know what this is Well you raised a good question Is he going to be happy with this price action since it's basically the equivalent of a 25 basis point rate hike if you take a rate cut I should say based on the easing and financial conditions that basically this is the wrong transmission mechanism whether it will stick is another story The other interesting thing is this comes even though this fed chair seemed a lot less confident about a soft landing He called it a soft dish landing and that it was going to be challenging to get there I mean he seemed to be conceding that this is going to be a struggle Should we get to a man who disagrees with this whole decision Tom The gentleman from Dartmouth David blanche flower joins us of course is wage curb is iconic in the study of the American and indeed the British labor economy is well professor blanche Farr thank you so much for joining This morning one of the great concerns here that we're hearing in every surveillance interview is a labor economy on fire Chairman Paul mentioned that three four times How fully employed is the backdrop as he searches for a neutral rate I thought all that was quite astonishing I'm sitting looking at a labor market where the employment to population rate is 5 percentage points below where it was in 2000 It's a percentage point below where it was in 2020 And what we know about hot labor markets is that actually the unemployment rate is not the right indicator What you need to look at is what happens out in outside the labor force And basically if the labor market was hot and firms wanted to get workers they can find them They've left the labor force and they left the labor force at 18 months ago So I didn't buy really any of that I thought this whole thing about the labor market being hot Didn't make any sense at all with 7 or 8 million jobs below to the equivalent of where we were in 2000 I thought can I just say time I thought it was a couple of things I thought I thought the questioning and the things that have been going on at the fed were just it's like everyone's singing from the same sheet It's as.

half of next year While money markets are anticipating a rate increase in November pills remarks suggest that a hike isn't a done deal But that he may favor acting to curb inflation Pill also signaled

Bloomberg daybreak Europe And it seems British households are bracing for expected interest rate increases from the Bank of England and they're less willing to make big purchases ahead of the crucial

surging inflation food and fuel shortages and clover climbing COVID-19 cases Okay so that on the UK meanwhile the fed is imposing new rules on personal investing for officials at the Central Bank the

this week Now there's concern though about the size of these ETFs What is going on Yeah well there is concern that for instance the futures carry drag could become even larger So basically these ETFs might get so big that they might start influencing the market and make themselves actually more expensive in the process And JPMorgan put out a note yesterday saying that they think it could be bidding up both the futures curve further relative to spot prices and the roles between contracts So that's definitely one to watch as these ETFs start to get approved and kind of settle out Yeah and

"With us Before we get into your proposed solution to the problem describe the problem How did we get here Yeah I mean it's been a really rough ride for the fed's credibility over the past I'd say probably about 6 7 weeks First news surface that Robert caplan the Dallas fed president traded a lot of stocks last year pretty much And then we had Eric Rosen grant of the Boston fed also trading a lot of real estate investment trust REITs And then just even more recently Richard Clare the vice chair was disclosed to have switched a lot of money from bond funds into stock funds just a few days before the fed really started aggressively easing monetary policy to combat the COVID crisis So a lot of moving parts and Eric Rosenberg resigned last week and tomorrow will be Dallas Dallas fed chair rubber cap once last day And just to be clear first of all neither I think mister Kaplan nor mister Rosen said the reason they were resigning was because of this problem And as far as I know there's no specific allegation of wrongdoing on any of these parts For example when you talk about Richard clarity it said this was a normal rebalancing that was sort of automatic He might not even know what's going on The question I guess Brian is not so much did they do something wrong Is it look fishy Yeah I mean I think it's pretty clear that it's not a good look at all And Richard caplan basically said that my financial disclosure has become a distraction as the reason why he was stepping down but it's all just very strange because I actually Robert caplan the one who has been trading all these stocks was actually among the most vocal critics of the fed policy and saying we should tighten that financial financial markets have gotten too frothy And similarly Eric Rosenberg who was trading REITs was saying that the real estate market was too hot So it was very strange But yeah no wrongdoing really at least based on the fed's current ethics codes But there's reason to suspect that that's going to change They're definitely going through they're going through it now and probably coming up with some recommendations to make it stronger So again just before we get your solution on teasing this now so I really want to know what it is Before we get to that what are the current rules about conflicts of interest in trading Yeah I mean it's a voluntary guide in some ways that should be above reproach that there are some rules around how many actually how much in U.S. securities you should own So U.S. government securities because obviously the fed does have a direct impact on the US Treasury market And there's also rules around the blackout periods surrounding actual decisions in which they can't trade They also have to hold securities for 30 days Pretty standard stuff but at the same time this is the Federal Reserve we're talking about And at the highest levels they're influencing the economy as much as any single body in the world Okay we've waited long enough a drum roll please The answer is I don't think there's exciting as you made it but qualified blind trust is what myself and Alexis Leon came up with It's a tool that's used sometimes in Washington It would basically require fed officials to hand over their assets to a third party that's not a spouse or a friend A legitimate third party who would then go about divesting their assets and then buying a new securities with that Okay so what's the difference with qualified blind testers to blind trust Yeah my understanding is that blind trust can still be subject to you might have a friend or you might have someone who you work with kind of take over the trust and it's blind in that sense But this would be the way that we understand it is it would be a true third party someone who really is a lot more removed from the actual person It's sometimes called there's also things called double blind trust which is where you don't even know who's managing your money But those are pretty rare So this is kind of just to make sure that it is a qualified third party So it's not someone that the fed officials could influence So if there is an argument against this what is the argument As I understand the way this would happen it doesn't mean that whoever is managing the qualified branch would have to trade securities have to sell everything and buy something else right They would just manage it the way you would if you could still manage it Well the issue there is that if you give them all your assets and you have $10 million in Tesla that's not really blind because you know you just hand it over $10 million with Tesla right So they would have to sell substantially all of that And then that's a great example because there might be a small tax bill to attach to that with Tesla given the bases Right exactly So this would just basically be a way to not necessarily discourage people who might be affluent might have had financial success in their life from becoming a fed official but it would prevent them from the temptation of having been in the markets before thinking they know what's coming and then trading on it Because you don't want to have we were joking that you don't want monks to be running the fed right You want people who have substantially knowledge of the economy and of the financial system And so you don't want certain net worth to be prohibitive but you also don't want that to be seen as a conflict of interest What about monks running the Congress or the executive branch Should something similar to be imposed for members of Congress and for senior executives at the executive branch Yeah that's a lot of the commentary that I've gotten back on my column so far today is yes that's a great idea about doing blind trust for the fed Now let's do Congress There is a lot of concern that people come into Congress and pet all their influence And as a result they accrue more money So I do think that there is especially with Congress there's definitely need to improve capital of interests there too because they influence sectors even more than the fed does I wrote that even as the P 500 could be seen as the conflict of interest for the fed and that's true But when you really drill down there are certain sectors big tech for instance that I mean Congress could really really lay into big tech if they wanted to And you could possibly trade ahead of that Well the S&P 500 today if you look at what Mitch McConnell and Chuck Schumer did they really drove the S&P 500 with their budget deal right Right If you find out that everyone's buying S&P 500 calls a couple of days ago that would be a problem.

"The push higher in energy prices oil prices in particular but were also watching coal and a host of other commodities as well Brent prices touching $80 during the Asian trading session So 80 23 is where we trade up by 9 tenths of a percent compared to the previous close 76 12 is where we trade on the WTI price and a big focus on bond markets once again as we busted out of that previous trading range up over one and a half percent on the U.S. ten year We went over 1% on the U.S. 5 year as well So watching those yields drifting just a little bit higher amidst all of that the dollar is entirely stable Caroline Let's go to our top stories this morning as the UK's fuel crunch continues the military has officially been put on standby to help deliver supplies to petrol stations a limited number of army tanker drivers will be trained up in case they're needed It's the latest emergency measure as the government grapples with supply chain reactions that have drained petrol pumps But a group of companies including BP Shell and esso say that they expect demand to ease in the coming days and there's no shortage of fuel at refineries and terminals Meanwhile plenty of jobs coming up for grabs at the U.S. Federal Reserve the Dallas fed president Robert caplan has joined Boston's Eric Rosenberg in early retirement both had been under scrutiny over securities trading activity last year Kaplan will depart on the 8th of October saying that the recent focus on his financial disclosures risks becoming a distraction Rosenberg will retire this week due to an ongoing health condition Meanwhile the recent message from Jerome Powell and fed officials is that the Central Bank will probably begin winding down its bond buying program soon though the economic recovery still has a way to go before the interest rate increases are appropriate The New York fed president John Williams cited progress on both the inflation and labor market front in arguing for a moderation in the pace of bond buying I think it's clear that we made substantial further progress in achieving our inflation goal It's also been very good progress towards maximum employment Now assuming the economy continues to improve as I anticipate a moderation in the pace of asset purchases may soon be warned But pal says that inflation is elevated and will likely remain so in coming months before moderating that's in preparation in prepared remarks rather ahead of Powell's Senate appearance today The US Treasury secretary Janet Yellen also testifies Those are a few of our top stories for you this morning Let's go on to one of our top interviews The Labor Party is gearing up here in the UK for a potential snap election as soon as next year That's according to one senior party figure With the annual party conference in full swing we're awaiting the key speech form care starmer The Chancellor shadow Chancellor Rachel Reeves has been making the case for a more business friendly Labor Party saying the party will scrap business rates replace it with a new business taxation system Now a Bluebird Westminster yesterday you imports and I spoke to Bridget phillipson MP She set out what the party is trying to achieve We've seen obviously a really terrible 18 month old for businesses and for workers And what do we believe the approach that should be taken the product that racial reefs will be setting out in her speech is that labor will tax fairly will spend wisely and will get the economy firing on all cylinders Now that means government working with business to create jobs and opportunity and every part of our country but it also means that when the government spending money is always focused on the value that you get out of every single pound making sure it has best possible effect We've seen extraordinary waste of public money during this pandemic and we would do things differently Is there enough real policy in what is being discussed at the party conference I noticed that the shadow Chancellor former shadow Chancellor John McDonald he's been on the program before and he's never won not to throw some criticism at Keir Starmer He loved this that the pamphlet that starmer wrote and published just before the party conference last week he described that as banality after banality that there was a lot of writing a lot of words but not enough politics in there What would you say in response to that I mean not for the first time I happened to disagree with them on that And I think what we're seeing today from our shadow Chancellor Rachel Ray is a focus not just on the fiscal rules and the approach that labor would take to the public finances on the office of AD for money but also already ambitious agenda around completely overhauling the way in which business rates operate in our country So we will put forward a different system the better reflects the change that taken place in the economy so more modern system of taxation that understands both how high streets but also our online businesses too So we would end business rate in the long run but in the short term we think this should be for all of them and for smaller businesses to be cut to really support our high street to thrive once more So I think we're setting out quite a big agenda around the different choices that are labor government would be taking How will labor get the likes of Amazon to pay more tax when others haven't managed it Well part of that course is around.

"New openings among the regional fed banks and we have a story out just recently saying that Rosenberg's opening according to people we've spoken to offers a chance for the fed leadership in Washington to take a bigger role in the search and selection process that leads up to the appointment of new presidents So explain that Chris explain that Yeah explain that So as opposed to fed governors in Washington who are nominated by the president of the United States and confirmed by the Senate the 12 regional fed presidents are selected by their regional boards of directors Each of those banks has a board of directors They exclude the members of the boards that work for banks that are supervised by the fed And the remaining 6 on each board are in charge of a search and selection process that goes on for many months But that process has come under tremendous pressure in recent years to come up with candidates that increase the diversity of the fed's leadership And surely in the wake of this trading scandal there will be more pressure for the fed to take an increasing role in supervising that process already we know that layout brain or is the fed governor who's in charge of liaising with the regional feds and typically that governor has their finger really on that process quite closely to monitor it and I can imagine they will there will be suggestions made about candidates There will be participation in the bedding process so if we step back and look at this this may be a point in time where the influence of the center of the Federal Reserve which is already extremely strong where the real gravity is in the fed will increase and perhaps the influence of the regional feds will decrease a little bit more So what does that mean for how investors should think about openings like this and the direction that the Central Bank goes And policy yeah exactly Well it is very difficult to predict ultimately what the policy views of the person selected will be I think it's safe to assume we'll see more female presidents more presidents from racial and ethnic minorities to increase that diversity that's been a subject Whether that results in a more liberal or looser monetary policy in alarming that is that's a bit perilous to predict so I think we'll have to wait and see what kind of candidates emerge for these physicians And then January 2023 will get two more that presidents Esther George and Charles Evans reached their mandatory retirement Chris condon if Jay Powell hadn't been questioned about this at last Wednesday's meeting do you think this is the headlines we'd be talking about and just got about 30 seconds left It certainly helps I would say it certainly helped And I think to the day anticipate that he was clearly he went straight to his answer book and when he feels that that question that was not a surprise for them This process was probably already entrained in the questions help nudge it along I would say Right Right And to be fair Tim and I've been talking about it I mean fed policy makers has to be complete transparency and we have to have confidence in them correct Chris in order for all this to work Not just above following the letter of the code of ethics It's about being above any questions about conflicts of interest in the cases unfortunately these guys really failed to cross that bar All right great Thank you so much Quick analysis So great Chris condon He covers the Federal Reserve for us here at Bloomberg joining us on the phone in D.C. So pretty amazing Yeah In terms of the headlines that we've seen Yeah what Chris was saying I mean you think a lot about the appearance the term like the appearance of the conflict of interest versus actually a conflict of interest And I think this really what he said is that there can't even be an appearance of a conflict of interest because trust is so important in the institution And that's why it's perhaps shows that the trains as he said were already in motion Right When it comes to monetary policy and we've all had discussions you've heard people voice their opinion about politics getting involved But you and I have talked about when president Trump was putting pressure on Jay Powell You know And you need to know and have a reassurance that the Federal Reserve is acting on its mandate understanding its mission and that's what guides them and that's it Well speaking of Jay pal we do have a statement from Jay Powell chair of the Federal Reserve system board of governors on this resignation of Robert caplan He says quote we are grateful for rob 6 years of service as president of the Federal Reserve bank of Dallas and as a valued colleague in the FOMC He's been a passionate and forceful public voice on a wide range of issues including the critical value of early childhood education and literacy in addition he strengthened the bank's economic research and played a very constructive role in system wide management budget budget and technology efforts We wish him well All right well a lot of news on this Monday and as we heard from Chris condon you know changes certainly when it comes to the fed and maybe more concentration of power centrally versus those regional banks All right let's get another check on world and national news not world of national news Let's get a check on your top business news and another look at that trading day Let's turn things.

"Investigating and looking at it closely but he was hit with a lot of big comments and she just really said remain that this is just not what the fed needed at this moment No questions about credibility All right we're gonna get back to this breaking news Robert capellan of course the Dallas fed president set to retire on October 8th You want to wrap up the closing bells here as you hear in the and see in the background the Dow Jones Industrial Average when the finish higher actually by about two tenths of a percent The S&P down by about three tenths of a percent The NASDAQ composite right now down about 5 tenths of a percent The NASDAQ 100 we should point out down about 8 tenths of a percent That's just cyclical rotation Nowhere else gonna be found of course with the Russell 2000 up about 1.46% here on the day That's about 33 points here And we should point out that the outperformance that we're seeing on the Russell at one point on the day at least on an intraday basis it was the biggest outperformance that we had seen going back to march here I think that's been peeled back just a little bit here I'll double check that just to get you the right superlative here But that is the narrative here right now that we've been seeing here Of course that rise in bond yields feeding right now girl into everything happening in the equity market Don't want to steal anybody's thunder but Tim and I were talking to that It is all about the bond market and to see those treasury yields and I think it's interesting with the backdrop of Robert caplan retiring as Eric Rosen Graham and you do wonder about the composition of the fed going forward and whether that how that changes maybe Taylor potentially fed things Yeah we've killer comments from Mike Mickey earlier I know that we're going to get him back on the show soon to talk about that composition Carol that you mentioned but in the meantime you do steal my thunder but I forgive you because it was a big Bond day and you really see that play out within the sectors for the radio audience We take a look at the sector winners this actor losers within the S&P 500 It is energy banks autos and materials How much of all of this is because yields are rising You're getting a yield curve steepening And so you're up 7 tenths of 1% to actually three and a half percent for some of the energy companies We migrate downward to some of the worst performers on the day and yes it is a Bond story Carol with utilities to some of the worst performers real estate you're off one to almost 2% as typically romaine those declined when yields are rising All right we're gonna get back to the gainers and decline us but we do want to weave back into that news with Robert capellan Of course the Dallas fed president resigning the statement out right now by the Dallas fed rob Kaplan says it was a great honor to serve He also addresses some of the issues with regards to his trades He said during my tenure I have adhered to all Federal Reserve ethical standards and policies My securities investing activities and disclosures at bank compliance rules and standards That is an exact quote from there in this statement of course he goes on to talk about some of the other things he did and during his tenure there but again once again here the big news here Robert capellan of the Dallas fed stepping down today we're learning this just hours after we learned that Eric Rosen Graham at the Boston fed would also leave his position 9 months earlier than planned And to be fair and to maybe mirror what we heard from fed chief Jay Powell is you don't want to get ahead of any kind of investigation into whether or not anything was untoward if you will And so again you do have Kaplan saying those trading meet the feds ethical standards And I just want to follow that And just a real quickly Carol they do actually say in the statement here that quote rob made the decision to retire as president and CEO of the bank effect of October 8th to eliminate any distractions to the Federal Reserve system surrounding his personal investment activities So unlike Eric Ross grant who resigned citing health conditions this statement does seem to be tied directly to the controversy over some of his financial holdings Rather quick and swift right And certainly you could imagine maybe potentially some of the conversations certainly since that last fed meeting and all of the questioning by the reporters in that room with or at least virtually with fed chief Jay Powell All right let's get to some of the
