Global news 24 hours a day, onair, and on quicktake by bloomberg, powered by more than 2700 journalists and analysts in more than 120 countries. Im Mark Crumpton. This is bloomberg. Vonnie it is 1 00 p. M. In new york, 5 00 p. M. In london, and 2 00 a. M. In hong kong. Im vonnie quinn. Welcome to bloomberg markets. Here are the top stories we are following on the bloomberg and from around the world. We are taking a look at how markets are positioning for what could be a drawnout battle with the white house. The contest over mailin ballots. The former u. S. Postal Service Chairman over the integrity of voting by mail and why it is crucial to selection. And an exclusive interview with the sap ceo Christian Klein on the company losing a third of its market value in the last 10 sessions, and how a new wave of Coronavirus Infections will hit the tech sector. Lets get a look at markets. We saw a nice bounce this morning, coming off at 11 00. Right now we have the nasdaq down. 2 . By 1. 1 . Ff abovellar index is still 94. A lot of strength. Oil coming back, up 2. 4 . Speaking of markets, speculative investors boosting bullish bets on u. S. Stocks ahead of the latest. You can see the increase in futures buying over the last several weeks. For more on flows and what they signify, lets bring in jay management. Obal x we will get to the significance of where the money is going in a moment, but give us an idea of where the flows are. Jay there is a lot of money in motion, even from longterm investors that prefer to stay put. A lot of people dont want to be flatfooted in this environment where so much is riding on this election. We are seeing hundreds of millions of dollars move within our own fund. The most acid gathering right now is in the Infrastructure Development space. That has brought in 130 million in the last month or so. People are looking at how a Biden Victory could lead to a major infrastructure package passing within the early part of the presidency. Vonnie is it possible to know what money is going where . Can you tell the difference between smart money and the other kind of money . Jay less transparency on the etf side on who is moving into what, but you can see general trends that a lot of people are looking at. What will happen if there is a biden presidency supported by a Democratic Senate . Beyond infrastructure, we see money moving into cleantech, and cannabis niche in the space, as people look at deregulation and statewide approval for recreational use. Areas generating a lot of interest from investors. Vonnie it seems like many of the investors shifting money around our shifting it in favor of a biden win. Is that how you would read all of this movement . What if the senate stays red, for example . Jay it appears a lot of the money that we are seeing is positioning for a biden win but not exclusive. People are looking to have a foot in both sides. A lot of people were caught flatfooted in 2016. Incredible volatility following Election Night. This year, people want to play both sides be prepared for any outcome. If the senate is retained by republicans, we see that as a fairly challenging environment for the markets. That is likely to create gridlock in washington. At a point where fiscal stimulus is needed by an economy that is still on life support. That could have the most in challenging environment on both sides, and will probably lead to inaction with a split government. Vonnie are you seeing Money Movement in the event that trump keeps the presidency and the senate stays republican . Some interesteing in that space. We would call that more of the financial trade, health care, industrial policy. Not having an increase in corporate taxes would be the biggest beneficiary of the deregulation in places like energy and utilities. We are seeing some interest in that space as well but more anecdotally, the majority of flows is chasing the infrastructure side of the equation, which means more toward the biden side of the camp. Vonnie talk about the amount of money flowing and whether this is typical on election weeks, when we will know how much money is shifting around tomorrow. At the etfe look markets, we see hundreds of millions of dollars within our own fund, tens of millions of dollars within the etf space. That is unusual but we are seeing heightened volatility in the markets. Pops, people tend to rethink their portfolios. You have so many different drivers between the president ial election, covid19, people trying to understand how the president ial election may impact fiscal and Monetary Policy. It is just causing a lot of money in motion. Quite ast say this is extreme as march and april of this year but probably the second most we have seen all year. Vonnie thank you for joining. That is jay jacobs. For our bloomberg customers, there will be full, aroundtheclock commentary on the bloomberg as we cover the election. Check it out. Coming up, we will be speaking with the sap ceo, Christian Klein, about the companys forecast. Hurting their outlook. This is bloomberg. Vonnie a breaking news headline. A french reporting a record 52,000 19 cases of coronavirus in the past when he four hours. That is 52 and a half thousand cases, more than twice that italy reported earlier. The u. K. Had almost 19,000 new cases. Suffering their biggest in todays fall in 21 years last week after the company cut its fullyear revenue forecast and said it expects new lockdowns to hurt demand. ,ets go over to emily chang who has the sap ceo Christian Klein. Emily thank you so much. Christian, thanks for joining us from germany where you are. , reallyforecasting rattling markets, especially tech markets. You say that pandemic will continue to hurt sap and its customers. We heard vonnie talking about those rising numbers and france, across europe. Talk about what you are seeing in terms of how the pandemic will hurt business, and for how long. Christian thank you for having me, emily. Covid19 is an Inflection Point for our customers. Many of our ceos of our customers, what they were telling me, they are seeking more resilience in their business. Mostwant the missioncritical businesses with sap, also production, serving just extend the supply chain. They want to accelerate the move to the cloud. This is what we are doing. We are following the needs of our customers. Success not wait, the of our customer versus the old guidance we had out there in the capital markets. What we are seeing is not only the move to the cloud, but our software, especially in the e p space, is more relevant. These customers need to transform their Business Models. They need higher automation, infuse more intelligence to enable working from home. This is what we are doing. What we are doing is addressing the needs of our customers. When it come to the pandemic, you were frank. Is this a harbinger for the rest of tech . Should other companies be bracing themselves for how bad the pandemic will be . Christian tech can really overcome the pandemic. This is true for the private but also public sector. Portfoliot of our extremely relevant. Think about all the lockdowns happening across the world. We just talked about it in europe. We are going into the second wave of the pandemic. What you need is intelligent supply Chain Software that can still enable customers to produce and deliver. What you also need is changing from positional sales to commerce. These are all the solutions that sap provides, and we are the number one in many of these markets. This is very relevant for our customers. This is why we want to invest in r d, invest with our customers. They need us now. Tech is a key enabler to come out stronger. Sap shares had been rising going into this but have plummeted, wiping tens of billions of dollars off of your market cap. How can investors have confidence after such a massive blow . Christian again, as i mentioned, we have guidance out there that is succeeding on prem. I dont want to trade the success of our customers for by forcing them to purchase on premises before they want to move to the cloud. Cloud, soe to the this is why we are shifting parts of our guidance, less on prem, and more on cloud. We will accelerate the growth in the cloud even more. When you look at our q3 numbers, many said, why is cloud revenue only 14 . Actually, it was up 26 , and with that across the level of our competitors if you exclude our travel and expenses. This is only a matter of time after covid went also this business will bounce back. That weremely confident will even accelerate our growth in the cloud in the years to come. Ceo rejectedorce the idea that this was a bad omen for the rest of the tech industry, says that you are still going through a ceo transition, have not navigated the transition to the cloud well. Do you think Companies Like salesforce, oracle, new to worry about the forecast ahead . Christian mark and i met last had a friendly conversation, and i dont want to talk so much about our competitors today. We are focused on the success of our customers. We have seen high growth in q3. Growth is skyrocketing. Now we are also focusing on making the Connections Work between the front office and supply chain. This is what we are focused on. Of course, i wish mark all the best. Think this is accelerating a shift away from on premise permanently . Christian absolutely. This is why we changed the guidance. I also talked to many of them the investors. While they were disappointed about the shortterm changes of said thisce, everyone is the right thing to do. The cloud is the way to go, and this is what makes s. A. P. Successful, especially in the middle and long term. Everyone was happy with it. We have 200 customers only in the u. S. Not one customer complaint. Everyone reached out to me and said thanks for listening to us. Thanks for moving us to the cloud. Many r ds. , we have labs. Now we want to invest. We even want to rent out businesses. There is no other Software Provider in the world who can make this transformation for our customers. Youy speaking of the u. S. , have an interesting outsiders point of view from germany. We are heading into a crucial election, could be the most all a week of the year. Beyond that, how does biden or trump in the white house impact your outlook . Christian i am a german, so ill be a close observer tomorrow. All i can say is that the United States is always a great partner for europe and s. A. P. I wish the country all the best tomorrow. I know that you have young kids at home, you have been navigating this remote work situation as a ceo and parent. What does the new normal look like to you, and globally, given your position in the u. S. , knowing how governments have been dealing with this differently in Different Countries . Christian first of all, it is great to see how s. A. P. Has been running in this crisis. We have put over 28,000 back on for radical purposes. Software enables you to work from home. This is also coming back to why we have changed the guidance. We want to enable our customer to be able to work digitally. Likes thathe family i am more at home. Indeed, i have two kids see their dad more often. If there is one positive about the crisis, it is being more at home. What is the biggest professional challenge you are working on going into 2021 . Christian my biggest challenge is actually to make sure our customer of tomorrow can produce, deliver, can sell. S. A. P. Is doing that. We are reaching out, not only helping them to transform their Business Models but also helping the customer who is in financial distress. We are reaching out, prolonging the payment terms. Oneont want to leave single customer, partner behind. This is our mission, our focus in this crisis. Klein, ceo ofan sap, joining us from germany. Bonnie, thanks for having us. Vonnie thanks to you, emily chang. Tune in later today for more interviews from emily at 5 00 eastern on bloomberg technology. Still ahead, the flight for florida. The president ial race isnt and that in the key swing state. Will florida assign the next president yet again . This is bloomberg. Vonnie this is bloomberg markets. Im vonnie quinn. The president ial race is tightening in florida, a key swing state that has historically been the key to winning. The state is working to avoid a repeat of the 2000 election. Joining us now is jonathan in coral gables. According to the latest polls, the gap is narrowing. Today, the nbc poll saying trump and biden are neck and that can florida. Showsst recent nbc poll trump ahead 50 to 48 . And you, that was following New York Times for that showed biden ahead. From where you stand, what is the latest . Getting some early tallies of mail in votes, early voting in the state. Mailina big time voting state, they have a sophisticated apparatus. They are used to this. The latest numbers that went live this morning shows registered democrats we dont know how people voted but democrats voted about 100 time 100,000 times more in the election. These are unprecedented numbers of mail in an early votes. Vonnie exactly. ,hese are registered democrats more than republicans, and it may skewer early on toward something that may not be the case when we have the final outcome. Are there any problems being reported . We know miamidade had difficulties with mailin ballots, the sheer volume of them. Jonathan there have been spot reports. We learned of one particular post office that had some undelivered ballots. People are looking closely at these kinds of examples. As you say, according to polls, mail inhave seen in the tallies, it will be very close. This state,e wins does that mean that he doesnt need to win a couple of the other sun belt states that may be in play . Could it all rest on florida for President Trump . Jonathan i will tell you one thing. There is the possibility that florida reports fairly early because of the numbers of votes , andhave already been cast because it is a state that is used to the mailin. If florida goes for biden, trumps path will look very narrow looking to where the rest of the evening. Vonnie and if President Trump wins florida . Florida is more critical for trump. If biden wins florida, it is a more decisive signal than vice versa. Innie the administration florida is possibly more sympathetic toward the current president , if i can put it that way. Does that mean that there will be more of a legal aspect that happens post the florida count . Jonathan this is a state that has a long history of complications. Everybody talks about 2000 with bushgore. Ack two just go b years, and 2018 had some difficulties. Ron desantis has a close relationship with the president. They have remain closed throughout the pandemic. The governor channeling the president. Vonnie you will be covering it for us from florida. Thank you.

It is down to the wire for President Trump and democrat joe biden. Both men are making final pitches to voters in key battleground states that will likely determine who wins the election. Today, the president kicked out of a run of five rallies in four states. North carolina, pennsylvania, wisconsin, michigan. Mr. Biden plan to spend most of the day campaigning in pennsylvania. He also stopped in ohio. The president is signaling he will pursue an aggressive legal strategy to try and prevent pennsylvania from counting mail ballots that are received in three days after the election. Extensionthreeday was ordered by the pennsylvania Supreme Court, the Supreme Court refused to block it. President trump called the decision terrible and added once the polls close on tuesday, we are going in with our lawyers. The head of the World Health Organization has gone into quarantine. He says he is isolating himself after coming into contact with someone who tested positive for covid19. He says he is well, has no symptoms, and will work from home from for the coming days. On sunday, geneva imposed a partial confinement until late november i made a surgeon cases. In poland, antigovernment demonstrators took to the streets for the 11th day in a row. Protests were triggered by the tightening of the countries strict abortion law. Poland courthe overturned a provision of the law that permitted abortions of fetuses with conditional defects congenital defects. Global news 24 hours a day, onair, and on quicktake by bloomberg, powered by more than 2700 journalists and analysts in more than 120 countries. Im Mark Crumpton. This is bloomberg. Vonnie live from ontario and new york city, im vonnie quinn. This is bloomberg. We are joined by our bloomberg and Bnn Bloomberg audiences. Here are the top stories we are following from around the world. Trump and biden make their final pitch to voters ahead of tomorrows election. One man we will be watching closely, fed chair jerome powell. What is at stake for Federal Reserve policy. The battle over mailin ballots. We will speak to david feynman about the integrity of voting by mail and why it is absolutely crucial the selection. And we will get the latest inside the global fight against covid19 and how Public Health has become more prominent in this election cycle. Lets get a check on the majors. Amanda we are watching markets certainly giving up ground as we go along. It is the tech stocks faring the weakest. That is indicative of what is happening in the markets, on a day of continued uncertainty about what happens. You are seeing a little rotation out of tech. Those stocks that are economically sensitive are doing a little better today, but certainly off the highs of the session. Energy is leading us higher here. Crude is moving higher today but still had not and while the profitable level for a barrel of crude, neither new york or west texas. Seeing awe are negative picture but we are seeing some buying in those groups that may do well from stimulus. How much of that is betting on the outcome of the election and a blue wave . Managing editor Peggy Collins joins us now. The outcome of the election will determine many things. It may also have a big influence on not just the spending from stimulus but on Monetary Policy as well. What do you think will be the biggest impact of this election on the Federal Reserve . Reserverom the Federal Point of view, a couple of things that will stay steady, a couple of things that could change but not likely immediately. The fed has signaled it expects to keep Interest Rates at this near zero level or at least three years, into 2023. Either president will have that backstop, support for Monetary Policy. , chairer thing will be powell will likely stay until 2022, when his seat is up. At that point, either president would have the opportunity to replace him and potentially replace the two other vice chairs on the board. Where that comes into play is particularly if we have a democratic president in joe biden, you could see the fed doubled down on banking regulations, positioning a different way than it has under the trump presidency, and also pay more attention to the racial wealth gap. Under a trump presidency, he will likely be happier with the near zero rates, something that he pushed for for the last couple of years, but uncertain if he would like somebody else when powells seat comes up again. Vonnie there is a constituency in the market looking for higher potential inflation, especially if biden were two men and there was more spending, Infrastructure Spending. If rates go higher, wouldnt markets be putting pressure on the fed to keep rates ultralow until 2023 . Peggy that is something that a lot of people in the market are looking at, as i said. This may cause inflation to rise, which is something the fed looks at, along with its goal of trying to reach full employment. In the sense that we are still crawling out of an incredibly deep hole in terms of where the economy was in february versus to,y, economists we talk colleagues that we talked to did not expect to see a change in the near term. One economist we spoke to said we are talking about the difference between 2022 and 2023, where they could be under pressure to raise rates. Vonnie we have to leave it there. The managing director for bloomberg economy. To tune into our special coverage of the election beginning tomorrow night at 7 00 eastern time. U. S. Stocks paring gains as we approach the 11th hour of voting in the 2020 u. S. Elections. Kailey leinz has a look at how the political tensions are playing out in certain corners of the market. Kaylee lets talk about how much of this election matters to the market. In the long term, it may not. Charles schwab put out some research pointing to the fact that if you put 10,000 into the dow jones in 1900 and only left it in the market when a republican was in the white house, you would have about 100,000 right now. If you left it in only when a democrat was a president , you would have four times that amount. But if you left it in regardless of the outcome, you would have about 4. 2 million. The point is, the market goes up to matter what. This is a longterm view. Shorter term, there could be stocks that bounce around. One that could be impacted directly by the results of the election is those with heavy china exposure. We are looking at stocks with relative toxposure the performance of the s p 500. They have been lagging for most of the past two years amid the president s escalating trade war with china. That dynamic has shifted a little bit with chinese stocks outperforming a little bit as oddsmarket prices in the of a Biden Victory. That is because these stocks could benefit from a trump loss. There was a second trump administration, that would mean more aggressive cactuses in trade. Said that he not would take it easy on china. He has called xi jinping a thug, has said that he would use tariffs if necessary. Of course, this is a key relationship to watch. These are the two global superpowers. China, as a share of global gdp, is gaining on the u. S. China about 16 of the world economy. U. S. Right now about 24 . Amanda thank you so much for that. Kailey leinz. Factorup next, a major of this election has been the mailin ballots. We are talking to the former chair of the usps. David fineman is with us. This is bloomberg. Vonnie this is bloomberg markets. Im vonnie quinn in new york. Alongside amanda lang in ontario. More than 96 million ballots have already been cast by mail or in early voting according to the u. S. Election project. Mode by mail has long been considered safe and convenient but the Record Number of ballots cast that way this year may lead to problems with counting votes promptly, which could lead to a legal fight about which ballots will be counted. David fineman is the former chairman of the usps. Of piecesf millions of election mail have gone through the usps system already. 2016, about 200 million. We are talking several times that already. A judge has also ordered usps to get it done, however necessary. Is the usps capable of ramping up to this extent . David i think they were capable but im not sure they were adequately prepared. There,xample, if i was we would have been on the subject early on. It was pretty clear in the beginning of the pandemic that people were going to mail in their ballots. The Postal Service clearly was not prepared to handle it. Lawsuits which resulted in four distinct orders from judges indicating that the Postal Service has not taken up the charge as it should. Quite frankly, i dont understand it. That is after three congressional hearings. I know that theyll be working full time. The one accolade that should be given is to the men and women of the United StatesPostal Service who are risking their lives, risking coming down with this deadly disease, over 60,000 of them did. Over 60 have died. Very important to remember that that is a frontline worker, when we think of the postal worker. When we consider the importance of the survey in this Election Service in this election, there was obviously some politicization around defunding. If you were there, what could usps have done about that, pushback to make sure that they had the resources they needed to get the job done . You wouldst of all, go to congress and ask them to allocate the money necessary. The house of representatives passed the first bill, and then a second bill. It went nowhere in the u. S. Senate. Those of you who follow this issue understand that the Postal Service has an obligation to prefund its pension obligations, which is costing it about 75 million. And have not prefunded probably the last 10 years. There is a bill in congress, past bipartisan bipartisan support, past and the house, sits on senator mcconnells desk. He has done nothing to move the bill. Frankly, you cannot understand why. Not one written statement against it. Quite frankly, i think the Postal Service can do what it has to do, if it is adequately funded, and we take away the obligations that it might have which are totally unnecessary. There is no private Sector Company that has to prefund pension obligations. Know, usps is in financial trouble, even as it has record amounts of mail passing through. We also know that some state attorneys generals want a usps audit after the election, given there were some problems like miamidade, virginia. How does the usps defend itself against such claims . Notdoes it prove that it is culpable of aiding Election Fraud . Not there now,am i dont know how they defend themselves. They are in a terrible position. As annd is ask example, this sunday, all man and women aboard, everybody was going to move what they had to do to get ballots delivered. I listened to a hearing before a federal judge and he asked, why didnt you do with the previous sunday . There seem to be no answer. I am not sure it is a defendable position. It may be indefensible. It will be interesting to find out why. I am hopeful that it will not make any difference. At the end of the day, i am hopeful that it will not make a difference in the election. Great to have your perspective. Many americans will be hopeful of that, too. David fineman , secretary of the Fair Election center. Thank you. Path of thehe pandemic is a central issue in this election, but should politics play a role in Public Health . This is bloomberg. We reduced our schedule to just 40 of prior year. Guiding for about 38 million passengers for the full year until march. We may have to work that number back slightly. We are pretty much running on schedule for the next month or two. Forwardlooking, we were already terrible, so we are not sure that the lockdown will have that much affect, although the risk will be to the downside. Ryanair ceo was the Michael Oleary talking about the effects of covid19 in general and the u. K. Lockdown on his business. We know the pandemic is one of the central issues for voters in the current election. Of course, the politics of Public Health is another story. Hearne,oined by shelley director for the Johns Hopkins center for Public Health advocacy. Thank you for being with us. With, on start there the one hand, beasley, obviously, Public Health is top of mind in a global pandemic. We depoliticize it, how important that it not become a political football in the process . We are having that moment in Public Health where lucy is holding the football and keep on moving it. That is what we have been doing to Public Health. It cannot be a political issue but cannot be a neglected issue, which has been happening for years and years, before the pandemic hit. That is my we need to make a commitment to rebuild it this is an infrastructure issue regardless of who wins the election. Vonnie we heard from both candidates that they have plans and so on to deal with coronavirus postelection. Whether they do or dont is a side the point because the system is not working. Of control, but it is also out of the u. K. Where there is free Public Health care for everybody. What lessons can we take away from this in order to make the argument for more funded Public Health . Shelley a few elements that you have to peel back. One is on the emergency response. We are in the midst of a global pandemic. It will have wave after wave. That is the challenge in emergency response. This is not just a sprinting event, this is a marathon with lots of little sprints involved. What has happened in the u. K. , other parts of the eu, is likely to happen here as we continue to thatsurges taking place, we will have to consider everything from lockdowns, targeted lockdowns to the issue of masks. This is going to be with us for a while and we have to learn how to do those immediate measures in addition to Getting Better and better down the road, for whatever else comes at us, which will happen. Give us a sense of what you think. Infrastructure spending may be something that becomes if there is a blue wave. Where would you put Infrastructure Spending on Public Health . Shelley this is a critical element of where they you have a new administration staying in place. There has got to be further investments in strengthening that Public Health system, not just for covid, but actually what is costing our economy the greatest over time, which is our high rates of chronic diseases. Properly, it is going to make us better prepared for the next Public Health emergency, in addition to reducing again our chronic problems of cancer, asthma, heart disease. It is costing our economy right now as the thickest sickest nation in the world. Fixes cans of smart make us better prepared for living longer, healthier lives. Vonnie have you ever figured to why people are reluctant have other people to put it in laymans terms, other people pay for their health care, even when it is in their interest to do so and is a widely accepted way to do things in other countries . Shelley what we are actually talking about are some of the fixes and protections that are before you, even before you get into the hospital or health care business. When we talk Public Health, it is really about keeping people out of the being sick business. There is a great report that came out two weeks ago by mckinsey that looked at the fact that the u. S. Economy is really getting slammed in the ballpark of 3. 2 trillion dollars because of premature deaths and lost productivity. And the fixes they were seeing, where you could cut the Disease Burden significantly by a third on the it is not health care, but things that we already know how to do like reducing smoking rates, addressing mental health, the lack of parity there. Some of the basic fixes, even with our transportation system. It is not health care. It is about how we all stay healthy and well and out of the hospital. Vonnie thank you. We will speak to you again soon. That is shelley hearne. From new york and ontario, this is bloomberg. Are you frustrated with your weight and health .

The president s campaign had planned a Traditional Party at his washington hotel. But the president said last week he was considering other options because the district of columbias coronavirus protocols would restrict the size of the gathering. His press secretary told fox news today that the president will monitor the Election Results from the white house. New york city mayor bill de blasio says he is concerned about the number of covid cases and percentage of positive test results, but that the hospital situation in the city remains under control. He says
