Vonnie it is 1 00 in new york, 6 00 in london, 1 00 a. M. In hong kong. I am vonnie quinn. Welcome to bloomberg markets. Here are the stories were following. White house chief of staff mark meadows is optimistic President Trump could be released from the hospital this afternoon. The latest headline throughout the hour. Again asties higher investors hope a stimulus deal may come soon, among other reasons. We talk to valerie grant, Portfolio Manager at alliance. Internal documents from exxon wasl reveal the company projecting an increase in co2 emissions of 17 by 2025. That exclusive coming up. Lets take a check of these markets. Indeed, they are higher, all major indices up 1. 5 , lead by the nasdaq, of course. A big move in treasury yields over the weekend with the 10 year at 74 basis points and a lot of chatter about yields rising, particularly at the long end, it being a credit short trade. Crude below 40 a barrel. Lets keep in i on the yuan. Eye on the yuan. The top story, President Trumps health. Joining me is justin fink. What is the latest from the white house about what they are anticipating the president will do . Justin we heard from mark meadows this morning, who said that doctors are consulting between themselves and with the president about the possibility of him being released from walter reed and going back to the white house this afternoon. The people we have talked to around the matter say that it is unlikely, particularly because we are headed into the most vulnerable period for coronavirus patients, where you either see people pull out of the woods or face a tougher fight. That said, we have heard from lots of people within the white house that the president is eager to get back home. He is feeling like he wants to ee energetic and productiv heelys feeling better. And productive. He is feeling better. Interestingly, we have had briefings around 11 00 a. M. From the president medical team. We have not heard a peep that we could hear more later today around whether the president will head home. We have been waiting since 10 00 this morning. If the president were to go back to the white house, there are more and more infected. Two more infections after Kayleigh Mcenanys announcement a while ago. Would it be safe for the president to go back to an isolated spot . Justin the president s residence is separated from the rest of the white house, particularly the west wing, where a lot of his top aides work. There is a question of whether it is safe for the white house to remain open even after the president s diagnosis, even after a number of top staff, campaign officials, all tested positive for the virus, there has not been either a mandate in the west wing that Everybody Needs to wear masks at all times or, you know, a call for everybody to work from home as much as humanly possible. Because of those things come a lot of folks are raising questions, even among the white house staff, about what the strategy is going forward. I think white house officials have justified this by saying that a lot of these contacts have not been flagged because they do not fall under cdc guidelines, but clearly the sort of testing and safety protocols and regime the white house had in place has not been effective because the president is in the hospital and more than a dozen of his associates have tested positive in the last week. Vonnie assuming all goes as well as it can for the president , technically he could week, on wednesday, in a the 15th of october. If he did and were to show that is thereer the virus, a chance he could close the gap and retake joe biden again . Is to neverlesson say never with donald trump and never rule out the possibility of a surge. We have seen in other instances where leaders have gotten the coronavirus. There has been a surge in the polls. We have not quite seen that yet in u. S. Polling data, although there is not tons since the diagnosis. But, you know, i think the debate is a big question mark. Joe biden said he would participate based on what scientists and doctors say is safe. This upcoming one is a town hall format, so it would have a large audience involved. I think there is a lot of pure logistical concerns in terms of his health going forward. Falls as the executive one by one from within, just income you have to wonder if House SpeakerNancy Pelosis get the that this will stimulus talks anywhere. What are the latest on those . Treasury tech secretary tested negative. Justin there is an interesting dynamic. Secretary mnuchin has been a strong advocate towards getting a deal. He and Speaker Pelosi were able to get the previous package across the finish line, but mark meadows, chief of staff, is the new factor. He was extremely conservative as a member of congress before coming to the white house. He has been against big spending plans. There is a sense on capitol hill that the chief of staff has foiled what could be a compromise. What may have changed over the weekend is two points. One, the president himself has increasingly, through social media posts, says he wants to see a deal on stimulus. Two, meadows was involved in a situation where immediately after the brief, he went and spoke to the White House Pool and gave kind of a more negative outlook of the president s health status. We have heard from people in the white house that that frustrated President Trump, so while mark meadows has spent a lot of time in the president s orbit, one of the few aids with him at walter reed, if his standing has fallen window forcould be a secretary mnuchin and Speaker Pelosi to strike a deal. Vonnie justin, thank you. Justin just in sync sink. Shares of amc down 10 . It has been a tough year for them and their competitors. Regal closing at least temporarily. Abigail a tough day for theater stocks around the globe and for amc the worst since june. It has to do with the fact that its competitor its competitor regal has been closed world, the company saying you can only be a grocery for so long without vegetables, fruit, and meet. Trying to operate without a product. We have seen them plunging sharply. As for the product that seems to have broken the camels back the camels back, that is the james bond franchise. The latest james bond has been delayed until 2021. That is one of the top movie franchises here in the u. S. Star wars is number one at more than 5 billion, but james bond at a respectable 2. 1 billion, so this decision seems to hinge on the delay of the next james bond movie. As you are mentioning, vonnie, it has been a rough year for movies not surprisingly with the lockdowns. Take a look at the drop. In 2019, there was 11. 3 billion worth of movie revenue. Right now, 1. 9 billion. That seems to be playing into the decision too. People seem reluctant to go into movies. Vonnie even with tom cruise going to the movies does not mean everybody else is comfortable. Obviously, moviegoing has diminished, but people are watching movies at home. Are. Il they a lot of these subscription numbers for home watching Movie Companies have surged. Netflix probably the bestknown, but even so, there subscriptions have surged 14 , hulu, and disney plus up 105 as people have been stuck at home or even staying at home. They want entertainment and are getting it on the couch, vonnie. Vonnie nowhere else to get it. Thank you for that. Much appreciated. We will be speaking more about these markets with valerie grant of alliance. This is bloomberg. Vonnie this is bloomberg markets. I am vonnie quinn. For more on the markets and the gradual recovery of the economy, lets bring in valerie grant, senior Portfolio Manager at alliancebernstein. Heres a question about todays movement. What is the market optimistic about today . Valerie i think there is some optimism, perhaps, about President Trump recovery from covid19, but also there are a host of other factors people are looking at. There is an expectation that earnings will be strong. This quarter is just gearing up. And the jobs numbers were better than expected on friday as well, so i think people are breathing a bit of a sigh of relief in that regard. Vonnie yeah, perhaps. There is some thinking and their that there might be less uncertainty about the outcome of the election. That there might be less uncertainty about the outcome of the election. You are senior Portfolio Manager at the group that talks about responsible investing. How do you find a responsible investment for that portfolio these days . Valerie there is no single definition of a stock or company thats responsible. In the portfolio that i manage, we looked at multiple Key Performance indicators at the portfolio level as well as at the individual stock level. So overall, for the portfolio, we look at the Carbon Footprint of the Carbon Emissions of the aboutlio, and we manage 60 lower than the broad market. We also look at what we call bordeaux effectiveness. We have a proprietary Board Effectiveness index that looks at the independence of the board of directors, the diversity, the skill set of the individuals on the board, and the structure of the committee. So we have a way of measuring the effectiveness of a board in the companies in which we invest. In addition, we look at characteristics of the employee population. Ashave new indicators there it relates to lgbtq equity and cators of diversity and inclusion. Those the metrics overall, but we also evaluate each individual social, stock specific environmental, and governance factors. Vonnie a lot of what you just mentioned is relevant at all times of the year and in all parts of the business cycle. Is there anything you would do now that we are seeing the economy meet some trouble, if you like, to reward those companies trying to do something about that . Valerie i am really focused right now on the s and esq. Environment concerns are still there, but looking at some of the social issues, particularly as it relates to labor practices. So that includes employee safety. Obviously, we are in the scrutinizingwe are our holdings to understand what management teams are doing to protect the safety of their employees and their customers. We are looking at the composition of the work floors, including the senior leadership, for indicators of diversity and inclusion, pay equity, Employee Retention and engagement. All of those are important drivers. Vonnie valerie, who then is performing best . Stocks we have over 80 in the portfolio, so we seek to be quite diversified across toustries and sectors, but illustrate, perhaps, one company that is a core holding, we own Procter Gamble. That is ae staples company. They have done well and how they manage their brand. And how they manage their brand. And they have made commitments in the plastic of their products. Vonnie Procter Gamble is interesting. It is also obviously right out there when it comes to the pandemic and providing what people are looking for during the pandemic. Valerie, how does Something Like a pandemic change anything about what you do . Because a lot of what you said are sort of factors that we need to be Getting Better on anyway, but when a pandemic like this hits, how do you think about deploying money differently . Valerie when a pandemic like this hits, two things happen. One is that certain trends that were already underway accelerate. An example there would be the shift to ecommerce. Obviously, people are primarily staying home and working from home and not willing or able to go out and shop. That is going to accelerate the use of electronic platforms both for payments as well as for shopping. While that trend existed previously, it accelerated to the benefit of certain companies. And then also, if you look at some of the trends that were moving in the opposite direction, there was already a significant amount of stress in retail in the United States because there is essentially excess supply, so while that trend, if you will, was already underway before covid, covid accelerated the decline in the Retail Sector in the United States. So those are two examples of how the pandemic really has affected the lens we use for investing. Vonnie valerie, thank you so much. Valerie grant, senior Portfolio Manager at alliancebernstein. White house chief of staff mark meadows says President Trump continued to improve overnight and is ready to return to normal schedule. We will speak with a doctor from Johns Hopkins. This is bloomberg. Vonnie this is bloomberg markets. I am vonnie quinn. Lets get straight to our next guest. He is a Johns Hopkins university professor. Trump, isesident there any scenario in which a man of his demeanor, aspect, age, having been given the amount of drugs he has been given, could or should be able to get up in front of the nation in 14 days time and publicly debate his competitor . Would he be able to do that . Each persons experience with covid19 is a little bit different. In an elderly individual recovering from covid that required hospitalization and supplemental oxygen, i think it would be questionable whether he would be at 100 at the time of the debate, and i think that is something we have to look at day by day. That is basically what we do with these patients when they recover, try to see how well they are doing, how active they can be, how quick is their thinking. All of that is important on a day by day basis, so it is hard to say. Vonnie there is some question about the amount of drugs he is being administered. Is it the case that if you frontload the treatments, it is automatically better for a patient in the case of coronavirus . Certain time frames that you want to give certain drugs for people. The president was hospitalized and required supplemental oxygen. That is where you want to be steroid,mdesivir and a so that makes sense. We do not know what to make of the experimental drug regeneron. But i do think, in general, treating earlier is better than later. With the steroid, though, we do not like to give that to people who do not need oxygen. It,ou need oxygen, you get which sometimes happens later in the course of illness. Vonnie is it safe for the president to leave the hospital at which he is being administered a course of remdesivir . It is important to remember that when the president leaves walter reed he is not going to some cramped apartment. He is going to the white house, which has a medical unit. He has received intravenous medication there. So there is a lot of resources with the white house medical unit. It is not as if he is just being discharged to home. I have myself discharged people before there five days a remdesivir has been up. The purpose is not to decrease mortality or complications, but get people out of the hospital. That is what the trials have shown us. Vonnie how concerned are you that we seem to have this cluster at the white house that keeps breeding new cases . Three on the communication staff, including Kayleigh Mcenany, in the last hour alone. This is a super spreading event by any definition of the term. This could have been avoided, prevented, mitigated. Forill see repercussions some time because these individuals will infect others. We will look at this as a turning point with how the outbreak was thought of, because this is the most prominent super spreading event in the history of an infectious disease. We have never seen one at the white house before. This goes to show that when you have these gatherings, where you do not have social distancing, where people are not wearing face coverings, and you have a false sense of security based on testing, that can be a recipe for disaster in this era. Vonnie could joe biden still test positive from that event . I think it is becoming increasingly unlikely when we look at the way they have investigated it. Remember, it is not fleeting contact that gets you this transmission. You need to be within six feet and they determined he was never within that radius. It is not out of the realm of possibility, but ice expect but i suspect he probably did not contract it. If he was not significantly exposed. And by that event, i meant the debate. Scholar at the Bloomberg School of public health, thank you for joining us today. So youre a small business, or a big one. You were thriving, but then. Oh. Ah. Okay. Plan, pivot. How do you bounce back . You dont, you bounce forward, with serious and reliable internet. Powered by the largest gig Speed Network in america. But is it secure . Sure its secure. And even if the power goes down, your connection doesnt. So how do i do this . You dont do this. We do this, together. Bounce forward, with comcast business. Mark i am Mark Crumpton with bloomberg word news. We start with President Trumps health as he continues to battle covid19. Bloomberg has learned it is unlikely the president will be released from the hospital before tuesday. White house chief of staff mark meadows told fox today that the president s condition improved overnight and he is making unbelievable progress. White House Press SecretaryKayleigh Mcenany said today she has tested positive for the coronavirus. She is the latest on a growing list of infected Trump Associates that include the first lady and at least two white house aides and three republican senators.

Global news 24 hours a day on air and on bloomberg quicktake, powered by journalists and analysts in over 120 countries. Mark crumpton. This is bloomberg. Amanda fly from toronto, i am amanda lang. Welcome to bloomberg markets. Vonnie i am vonnie quinn. Care of the top stories we are following from around the world. Fed fred president president Charles Evans says we will have to wait years for inflation to rise above the central bank target. He says the recovery is proven quicker than anticipated. President trump potentially could be heading back to the white house soon. The latest on the president s diagnosisand if his is changing some americans attitudes towards coven. Exxons plan for an omissions surge. For anns plans emissions surge. We will take a look at what it means for the company and the environment, amanda. And, vonnie, it does feel like a risk on day. We see stocks advancing the most in a week, shaking off some of the trepidation they experienced friday morning, of course, over u. S. President Donald Trumps covid diagnosis. You can see off the highs of the session, but not far. Energy leading the way for that broad s p 500. Materials, tech holding their own. T doingy group no well are the rate sensitive real estate stocks. We also saw treasuries following falling, the yields rising. Positive sentiment in terms of the risk and talent he heading into this. It is the 67th annual in abe nabe meeting. Ual we heard from the chicago fed president Charles Evans, along with his comments on inflation, which he said he does not expect it to overshoot inflation, he does say the recovery is happening faster than expected. It has been pretty good. A little quicker than i was expecting back in june when i submitted a forecast. I had been quite nervous about where we get back to the level of where we were going into this. Some time, you know, in 2022 may be, in we seem to have been doing better than that. And we seem to have been doing better than that. Kathy bostjancic as the chief u. S. Financial economist for oxford u. S. Which you back that up, kathy . And is it too soon to say that . What is your level of optimism about economic recovery here . Kathy i think the initial snapback was quicker than most people were expecting and a bit quicker than we were forecasting. In the third quarter, we could recoup about two thirds of the decline we had in the second quarter. So growth rate numbers that are off the chart, over 30 annualized. The real focus is on the Fourth Quarter and going into 2021. The Fourth Quarter is going to be much slower. Our baseline estimate is that we get growth annualized over 4 . But that is highly contingent on another fiscal package. And, right now, that is really ited in political debate and is not clear that we are actually going to get further stainless, so that means further to get further stimulus, so that means further help for people who are unemployed, local governments, airlines. Without that, we ceded without that, we could see growth below 2 in the Fourth Quarter quarter and sluggish into next year. Vonnie we got a headline that Steve Mnuchin a nancy pelosi will meet again tomorrow morning. It just seems to be getting put off they by day. Day by day. What about this move in treasuries . It was quite the eyeopener. Kathy you are right. We have been in this tight soge, 72 to 76 basis points, even breaking five basis points seems like a big move with a tight range. The markets are starting to place higher odds on biden winning the election and, with that, the expectations will get expectation is we will get more federal spending, maybe and in between stimulus bill and further spending if you look at his platform. That increases the likelihood of increased borrowing. And also more growth, inflation. Weigh on theould upper direction of Interest Rates. Equities tend to rally more on the higher growth expectations. Extent do yout think we will see relief as a certainteed . There will beys something clearer on either side, that the market will like that . That it is the uncertainty that is readily people. Rattling people. Kathy good point. That also could be embedded in there if the polls are showing a wider margin for biden. That is true. The markets were pricing, especially the options market, for some protracted period of uncertainty, and that could mean risk off and could drag Interest Rates lower in that scenario. It depends how long the outcome would be unknown. If it is just a few days, that is not as significant, but if it becomes weeks, that would really weigh on market sentiment. Vonnie how big of a pipit was it today to hear that chair evans of a pivot was it today to hear that chair evans would be happy before worrying about 2 inflation, kathy . Kathy we are hearing from various members, both voting and nonvoting, but i think that what is clear at least is that they will wait until inflation at 2 before they lift off, and many of them are welcoming higher inflation. So i am not too surprised by the 2. 5 . If you look back last year, governor brainard suggested that maybe in the near term they should be targeting at 2. 5 , because if you look at the past decade, they missed, on average, 5 each year of that 2. 5 target. Amanda where do you factor in the need for a new stimulus package in terms of what happens in the Fourth Quarter . Kathy i think the timing and the size both matter. Unfortunately, the timing has been lagging. We needed it when the unemployment benefit first expired, the 600 top off back in july. Now, there has been at least some continuous, at a much lower level, of about 300 additional up until the middle of september, but we do need more, and particularly that helps the people that have been most adversely affected, but from a macro picture it helps with Consumer Spending. It has really been a big supplement to income. People relying on that also fuel spending, but without further help, you will see a negative impact on Consumer Spending and see that start to slow. Vonnie kathy, thank you for joining us. This is bloomberg. Kathy bostjancic is from oxford economics. We discuss the latest on a member of President Trumps inner circle testing positive for coronavirus next. This is bloomberg. Vonnie this is bloomberg markets. I am vonnie quinn in new york alongside amanda lang in toronto. President trump could be released today or tomorrow from the hospital. The ongoing threat of covid is causing states to rethink reopening plans. Cuomork governor andrew saying new York City Schools in viral hotspots will close tomorrow. With more, were joined by Health Care Reporter michelle cortez. Michelle, you have been following every moment of this from the beginning. How much more will we see states decide to close certain districts or in fact whole cities and municipalities . Officials expect this outbreak will only get worse across the entire country, especially as schools continue to stay open and people are gathering more and more inside without doing the proper masking and social distancing. Were certainly seeing now, with the diagnosis of President Trump, that any precautions that you take, testing and that sort of stuff, cannot protect you unless you are reducing the interaction you are having. The outbreak will continue and we will see, as in new york, closing schools, businesses, no dining in some areas, across the country. Amanda of course, places like new york have been pretty aggressive, partly in response to the fact that they had a big outbreak early on, but were willing to shut down, impose restrictions, when other jurisdictions were not. Should we expect to see, because of the president s diagnosis, a change in attitude in other places . In other words, places that had reluctant that had been reluctant previously to impose restrictions . The decision to wear a mask and social distance in a lot of places in the u. S. Is political and i dont know if the president s diagnosis the swaydents diagnosis will diagnosis. Well, president came out it might actually embolden people who do not believe in the virus, in the importance of social distancing. But we have seen that the president has been seriously ill, although he is not per training that. We know he is getting aggressive medical therapy that is not available to the average american. They are expecting they are saying he might be released later today or tomorrow, but we know for even those people who do not end up hospitalized it takes a while to recover. The fact that the president was sick will not sway people who are already in disbelief of the virus. Hopefully they will follow the approach of new york, which not only is being very aggressive in controlling the virus, they are looking in districts, specific schools, narrowly, taking aggressive action to stop it. Vonnie in your latest coronavirus newsletter, you talk about how new covid tests are on the horizon. Talk to us about these tests and how close we are to getting an immediate and accurate test result. Michelle the progress on testing is astonishing. You have to remember that they are working on surveillance. It is not diagnosing people who are already infected and showing symptoms. It is this idea of testing the entire population very frequently throughout the week and knowing where the levels are in your community. What that would tell you is where we are seeing a lot of virus and where people can start doing things like making sure they are not going out and gathering and making sure they are wearing masks. You for as will tell dollar or five dollars whether or not you are positive. We are looking at probably a few more months before we get them. We are getting closer and closer to being able to get a coronavirus test as often as you pick up a soda. Bloombergs michelle cortez, thank you for that. On friday, after learning of the president s diagnosis president s diagnosis, bloomberg spoke with San Francisco mayor london breed about the pressure of reopening a city that was among the first to impose restrictions to try to stop covid19. Is unfortunate when anyone gets covid. People,hope is that especially leaders, are leading by example. I do not like to wear masks, but i wear them. I do not like social distancing, but i understand that i could infect somebody and they can infect me. It cannot be about me. It has to be about the effector the behavior i model so others can follow. They have to understand how significant this is and how it could be devastating to a densely populated city like San Francisco. This is important. From my perspective, this is why, from day one, i have tried to communicate everything i know, the facts, and use data in decisions, and just remind people, yes, we want this to be over. We are tired of covid, but covid is not tired of us. It will not go away because we want it to. We have to do our part. Emily how many states and cities have been following the president s lead on this . I wonder if you think the president s condition will change the way this plays out, the way some of these other cities and states are reacting. Mayor breed i hope it does. I think what it shows people is that no one is immune. It can happen to anyone at any given time. When you think about someone who is possibly elderly and maybe unhealthy, it could be even worse. The impact of covid could be devastating. So i hope that this is a wakeup call for so many people who are refusing to wear masks and are moving forward with their lives as if nothing is wrong, as if we are not still in a pandemic. This should be an example, for sure. Vonnie bloombergs emily chang with San Francisco mayor london breed. Coming up, going the wrong way on Climate Change. Internal projections from one of the Worlds LargestOil Producers shows just how much it was willing to contribute to global warming. This is bloomberg. Vonnie this is bloomberg markets. I am amanda lang in toronto alongside vonnie quinn in new york. Bloomberg has learned exxon is planning to increase its annual Carbon Dioxide emissions not by a small amount. It is the equivalent of the entire National Output of greece. Our reporters with us now. He broke the story. Thank you for being with us. Lets start with the leaked documents and what you found. Exxon does not disclose all its omissions, let alone emissions projected into the future. What we found from these internal internal documents is that before the pandemic took hold of the economy, exxon was planning to increase its omissions by as much as 17 , or about 100 Million Metric Tons of Carbon Dioxide going out to 2025. Thats happening at a time when the world needs to cut omissions to tackle Climate Change needs to cut emissions to tackle Climate Change by as much as half within the next decade. Vonnie you ministry these documents. Is there any suspicion that it was because the u. S. Pulled out of the paris accord that exxon was able to do this or does it have nothing to do with it . It is possible. We do not know what the reasons are. What is clear, however, is that if we look at exxons rivals, especially european oil companies, there is a clear indication that those companies are moving in line with climate science. Bp is going to cut its Oil Production in the next decade and shell has said it will be at 2050. Missions by there are about to be european regulations that would require all companies in the region to meet certain targets by 2050. Those do not exist in the u. S. Out of theulled paris climate agreement and that formality will be completed by the day after the election. Amanda what pressure do you think will be brought to bear on exxon because of this report . One thing we know is that if there is a change in the government, if joe biden is elected to be president , he has already said that he will commit the u. S. To net zero omissions emissions by 2050. There will be impacts, one would be the exxon that exxon will have to align itself. There will be pressure from investors who require these ownlosures on what exxons projections are, even on production, but also on emissions, which has become a key criteria on to be able to make decisions. Criterion to be able to make decisions. Vonnie did exxon have any comment for us or you . Yes. Exxon said that this document is based before coronavirus. We already knew that. They said they are going to delay some of their production plans because the price of oil has fallen drastically, but it has not said it is canceling any of those oil and gas projects, and so those emissions are still, so to speak, on the books, perhaps not in 2025, but a little bit further out. Vonnie it is a fascinating story and thanks to you, who broke the story on this exxon plan for any emissions surge. Surge. Missions still no word on the president or whether he will be discharged today are not, but equities are blithely moving higher, with the nasdaq up 1. 3 . From new york in toronto, this is bloomberg.
