That is dramatically reducing the chances of a rate hike by the fact next month. By the fed next month. Weve been asking our guest their take. The challenge for the fed, are we at full employment and is that translate into Wage Inflation . The markets are telling you, the quality of jobs are not very good. People dropped out of the labor force. Almost no chance of a rate hike in june. Very little chance in july. Sees the fedbb backing off a hike for the time being. The realities that this will take the june hike off the table. Some people will be disappointed from that. Does it reaffirm the Global Outlook . It is a very volatile series. It actual price element of still in line with expectations. The fed will probably back off in june. We are looking at four to 5 probability. We will see i think janet yellen is speaking this evening. Angie the poor jobs data might not be an accurate reading of the u. S. Economy. It could be a oneoff. It does not add up. If you look at other economic sync withdoes not the u. S. Jobs numbers. You have april Consumer Spending at the strongest pace since 2009. A lot of indicators pointing that the economy is doing quite ok. Angie lets see how this is all playing out this morning. Jobstte before those numbers came through on friday, we were expecting that we would see a rate hike from the fed. If not june, july. Those hopes are now being crushed. The regional index is lower to kickstart the trading week with every sector in the red. The only areas we are seeing support and basic materials and utilities. Seeing weakness coming through across the board. The chance of a rate hike in july only around 27 , down from around 50 prior to those jobs numbers. Dragging on the regional index and some weakness coming through in china and in hong kong today. Tune s off to the wanda cinema hitting that 10 daily limit.

Reports a very bad jobs on friday. 20,000 even below the lowest estimate by the bloomberg it is shocking. The threemonth trailing average is still about 116,000. Still, it is a big miss. In june for a fed hike is off the table. Even july is probably off the table. We have to see how the data pans out over the next couple of months. Angie currency fluctuation in this region today, especially the yen. How does this predicate the moves it goes beyond currency. It has to do with domestic fundamentals. We have australia and india on tuesday. Korea and new zealand on thursday. The market is most divided on new zealand. Some people are calling for a cut. Angie because of the currency strength we are seeing in the kiwi as well. At this juncture, for australia and new zealand and even korea and india, it is not like we are not expecting any further rate cut. Given what is happening with the fed and rate hikes off the table, always a chance that the Central Banks could move ahead. In cases like india, very unlikely. Korea will probably wait until july. Even australia, some of the data has not been bad and in his been and it has been ok. We have to see how things pan out. This have to ask you is a man under pressure.

Our base case is that he still survives in september. Angie has any of your strategy shifted now that we have the fed likely on hold . Even prior to that, we were saying, in asia, the Dollar Strength story had run out of steam. Last week, we were recommending going tactical he bullish the bullish tactically the malaysian ringgit. It has already been up 1 versus the dollar since friday. The question is, how long can this be sustained . If the data weakness of the u. S. Is a oneoff, that is one thing. But if people start worrying that the data will take a turn for the worse so that equities take a hit, that will have repercussions. Shortterm, constructive for asia currencies.

We have yvonne man checking in on the story. Is it still too early to jump back in . May be so. If they do not see a bull market anytime soon and it is because of the Government Intervention we have seen that is elevated the stock prices. Profits continue to shrink. We have seen a 13 decline in earnings in the past year. The biggest risk is the investor psychology. Since the 40 plunge since june since january, we were main pretty low, below that 3000 psychological line in the sand. Compare the valuations to the rest of the world, china still looks pretty expensive, three times more than any other major market. At 59. E ratio that is still higher than u. S. Tech shares at the height of the. Com boom. That is hong kong, you can see the disparity, plenty to be worried about. Close to that fiveyear low. The clearest indicator to see this disconnect is we are seeing 34 premium for the domestic markets to the International Market here in hong kong. 34 , is actually still smaller in some respects because they include bank stocks, for example, to have a much greater waiting. Ing. Eight look at the equity markets. Equal weighted average, look at that. Well above 93 . Smaller companies could be as much as 600 . These valuations are far from falling closer to earth.

Are facing biges challenges. This week, we will be looking at three of them. If china is the factory of the gdong is the engine that powers it. We have Tom Mackenzie reporting. A city with a population equal to london. High wages and reduce demand has forced many two capacity to slash capacity. This road is lined with half closed factories. The garment factory down there. This was an electrical parts supplier. This goes all the way down to the end of the road. Slice. Ea is just a small some workers are still cling to their jobs, but the future looks bleak. These workers did not want to show their faces on camera. Some have been harassed by the police for speaking out. The boss has not given us a word of explanation. If he leaves, we are worried we will not get everything we are owed. Factory where the people we were just speaking to work. It employs fewer than 200. They tell us the taiwanese boss is refusing to tell them if their jobs are safe. An hours drive east, you get to a compact modern city surrounded by lush hills. Factoriestomated churning out hightech products. They are even paying factory owners to replace workers with robots. Robots to replace humans will help individual companies to be more competitive in the market. Overall, it will cost some workers to be laid off. Replaced workers were with robots last year. It was his risks in a province afflicted by rising social tensions. Tomorrow, stay tuned for part two of toms report on the challenges facing china. Economic data showing signs of stabilization in china but will the trend continue for the rest of the year . We will discuss that and a whole lot more in our group chat.

The vehicle is a copy of the land rover. Similar door panels. Powered by over 2400 journalists around the world, this is bloomberg news. Angie welcome back. Joining me now, we have johanna chua. We talked about the fed. Lets bring in china. No doubt there is a sigh of relief that there is no move coming out of the fed likely in june or july. That eases it. Where does it go from there . We will get a hike eventually. Not as bad bad is the wrong word. We used to have been even more bearish forecast. Even dollar relative to asia, if you look at the dollar index forecast, dollar stabilization that is a bit of pressure off of the asian currencies. You like the malaysian ringgit. Korea is closed today. We saw that with the malaysian ringgit. It is also good for duration where the fed rate hike seems to have been put off for now. That will help bond markets like india, even thailand. We have talked about the yen. These capital outflows are not going to be as bad . In china, the domestic fundamentals are pushing capital outflows. I do not think that has dramatically changed. Some of the data coming out of china, it has stabilized. The negative surprises have dissipated. I think the shock story is no longer there. The longerterm story has not changed. The buildup of leverage and unsustainable risks will create pressure going forward. You talked about oil being 65 by the end of the year. How does that play into the china story . Correct. The end of the year 2017 forecast. I am a longterm guy. We view that oil prices have already bottomed. That was not sustainable from a supply demand. Like growtht is not has been great. Emerging markets can to be a lot more energy intensive. We also are forecasting last year was 3. 5. This year, 3. 6. The big pieces are russia and brazil. If anything, it is not a great story. It is not as sad as it used to be. That provides a bit of a floor. Most of asia, energy importing. Pricesf times, commodity are correlated with capital flows. Wheret is an environment Commodity Prices are bottoming, issueschina has specific outside of this. Stories we need to watch in china. I do not know when it is going to happen, but a lot about lot of talk about bond inclusion. Portfolio. T of that it is more of a sentiment boost. More symbolic. The actual flow is very small. It will take a while. It is the sentiment. That would open the door . We have to be realistic that there are some domestic challenges that we need to factor in. I would not say the currency and outflow pressure is finished. But i think things are abating. Lets not forget the dollar was quite strong in may. That suggests capital flows may temporarye are factors. I do not think the fed story is over. There is a lot of talk it is probably more economic nature. Jack lew has made statements about how china has to be a lot transparent and communication. Transparent in communication. Chinas comedic nation has become a lot more protectable communication has become a lot more protectable. People can model it now. That helps at the margin improved sentiment. Im sure they will talk about openness, etc. , but it will be interesting. Is the last meeting before obama. Johanna chua, citigroup, Global Markets asia. Angie nestle is betting on ecommerce to give sales a booth in china. Nestle has launched, new products for sale, never sold before in china. They are sold on alibabas platform. These products are not available in the shop, only online. This is part of the boost to engage Online Shoppers and ecommerce. The managing director has said ecommerce in china has triple digit growth rate, which is pretty incredible. It is already more profitable than it sales in brickandmortar. They are making a comeback with these online sales. Nestle in china, the growth has been great. Sales have increased 6 and that was last year. Angie it really seems that china is the only bright spot. Slowing economies surrounding this picture. It means consumers are not shopping so much and it has been hard for nestle to increase prices around the world. Reliance onduce its packaged foods. Under a little bit of pressure to reduce longterm sales targets, a growth of about 56 percent. Region, because of a recall in india, those are now back for sale again. Hopefully, that will help that region. Angie any of those Products Online chocolate . Yes. Angie thank you for that. We have Bloomberg Markets middle east coming up this hour. Of course, the markets are going to get their teeth into the dollar, into bonds, and to oil. Yesterday, we had a bit of a sitdown. The chair of the department of economic development.

They will see growth at around 5 next year. We also have our chief economist who will break down the pmis from the bank. You do not want to miss that. Angie manus cranny, looking forward to it. That is it for us on asia edge. We will hand it off to Bloomberg Markets middle ea manus crude is on the rise and for adding and trading under. I think a range of 5560 could happen. Abi is a hugea
