Lisa parenti has more from our newsroom. We will pick up right there. Prime minister matteo renzi is planning to resign after voters overwhelmingly rejected a constitutional reform referendum. That could open the door to the antiestablishment fivestar movement, which is running neck and neck with renzis democratic party. Earlier, a commissioner spoke with bloomberg about the italian vote. Is is this a referendum on the italian constitution it is a referendum on the italian constitution. He is going to resign as a strong Prime Minister who led reforms politically, economically, and socially. He downplayed the vote determine whether Prime Minister theresa may needs a vote from parliament before beginning talks to leave the european union. The u. K. Attorney general says it may have a compelling need to control the terms of the brexit negotiation. Endorsedd austria have a proeuropean union pact. They elected former Green Party Union leader he defeated the candidate from the far right freedom party. And shinzo abe will become the first japanese city Prime Minister to visit pearl harbor paid he will visit the Hawaiian Naval base with president obama at the end of the month. Wednesday is the 75th anniversary of japans attacks on pearl harbor, which led to the u. S. Entering world war ii. Global news 24 hours per day powered by 2600 journalists and analysts in over 120 countries. This is bloomberg. Mark . Lets stay with our big story today. Investors coming back to terms with Prime MinisterMatteo Renzis pending departure. A decision to quit his post after his proposal to rein in the power of the senate was emphatically rejected. Lets get to Francine Lacqua as renzi plans to hand in his wreck is hand in his resignation. What we understand will happen this afternoon, matteo renzi will one last time meet with his cabinets, and then he will formally go to the president of the republic of hand his will resignation. Nobody knows what happens next, will askhe president someone to form a new government, either a technocratic government or a government that he thinks is an option to get the majority in parliament. Names floatedee around. We dont know whether he will announce the successor this evening or maybe tomorrow or maybe it may take one or two days. This is how it happened because the referendum was rejected by 60 . About 60 of the 70 actually voted against the referendum. And unlikely matteo renzi will play any part in this new government. They need to get the staffs approval by the parliament. Reaction thist morning. Euroy markets are up, the going up after an initial fall. Is going back to levels that we saw on friday. So the Market Reaction is fairly muted. Mark one of your guests telling you earlier this is now a banking story. What does this mean for a deletes lenders . For italys lenders . First of all it will put pressure on the commissioner and other banks. You are in political turmoil or political limbo, and we dont know who will be the next Prime Minister, it may make some investors shy away from taking part in the increase. Is unclear whether they will be able to raise that amount. I spoke to the first time he was talking to an international network. It was the first time he has been talking since being named ceo. For the moment he says the referendum doesnt change any plans for unicredit. Feel unicredit is a strong bank and italy is a country with a lot of potential. Lets focus on the medium to longterm and not be bothered by the events of the night. Francine just to get back to the vote june ouster and ask him go ahead. I was trying to ask him go ahead. Julie getting back to the general vote, we have an interesting maps look interesting map looking at the various regions and what voted how. It looks like tuscany went for yes. But overwhelmingly we saw a no vote across various regions in italy. It is not like you are seeing a geographic split. It does seem this vote was overwhelming. Francine it was overwhelming. What we have been trying to figure out is whether this was really a no vote for matteo renzi and his government. A lot of commentators were telling me if you look at the southern part of italy and because the unemployed are so much larger in number than the north, it does feel like in those regions it was more of an antigovernment protest. The fivestard of movement concentrating his efforts there. Where go further north, the situation is the terms of Economic Growth is a little bit stronger, the conversation could. Lightly till slightly tilt a vote because they were concerned it would limit too much of the power of the senate, therefore giving the Prime Minister too much power. I think that is different. Whether you see it at that is the difference whether you see it as a populist vote in certain regions or in other regions you see it as a vote against the consolidation of power. Julie coming up u. S. Stocks are climbing as a chief equity strategist at Wells Fargo Funds Management will join us next. This is bloomberg. Mark from london and new york, i am mark barton. Hyman paidim julie as we talk about a sense of relief appearing to dissent over global stocks, take a look at italys referendum having a smoother aftermath in the u. K. Vote to exit the eu and president Donald Trumps victory. Following back near its lowest level since august, even in the wake of that referendum. Our markets becoming more immune to Political Risk . Joining us is john manley, chief equity strategist at Wells Fargo Funds Management. What is going on here . At investors Getting Better anticipating these shocks, or sort of more immune . Have never career i been hurt by something i saw coming at me. We saw this coming at us i think markets are good at discounting things, knowing what is going to happen. The shape of the reaction was the same, down initially and up again. Italy has a strange political history. I think they will work through it and i think that is what the markets are saying. You think there is a divorcing in some of these cases from the political and economic . In all of these cases the perception seems to become the effect on the economy will perhaps not be as dire as anticipated. John i think that as well put, that is exactly what is happening. We on wall street sort of do things. When i think the ramifications and repercussions are something the politicians may do are known and discussed, they tend not to happen despite all the rhetoric. Me this rally has legs and then tell me who is going to lead it higher. This is the s p 500 Industry Group peterson the truck Industry Group. Since the Trump VictoryCompanies Types of continue to lead the way . What is the upside from here . John the upside is we are going into the second half of the second phase of a normal bull market. In the beginning there is the push phase where the central bank is pushing money to make the economy better. They do that until it works and it seems to be working right now. Then the money gets pulled into the equity market because fundamentalists are clearly Getting Better. I think we are entering that right now. I think the market value is fairly overpriced. I think those kinds of companies can do well. Thats the kind of thing that drives markets. Function,oked at ig the s p is 18. 4 times estimated earnings. The fiveyear average is 15. 8. How can that be fair priced . John i disagree with those numbers. I look at earnings expectations over the next 12 months it markets around 16. 5, 17 times. The next 120. 3 over years. I realize we are getting to diminish a we are getting to to wea desk getting are getting to minutia at this time and point but i think you run the risk looking at profitability when you me to look at valuation. Julie obviously the push phase of the bull market was very long, unusually long by bull. Arket standards does that mean we are going to get a compressed segment here . John the markets tend to react to changes and i think there is closeensus out there, to consensus. The profitability is too high. I think the profitability is high. I dont see any of the strains has people saying we need to have a recession because we havent had one for so long. Recessions sometimes happen, but they happen when excesses buildup are usually because the Federal Reserve decides they want to avoid those excesses proactively. I dont see either happening at this point in time. Its a little bit like saying my plane should have arrived 20 minutes ago, im getting off even though im at 5000 feet. We have to be rational and logical. Been 20 years since greenspans famous irrational comments. Similarities between now and 1996 when it comes to over exuberance . John i hope so. Remember, it was a question and it was classic Alan Greenspan trying to figure out what the truth was. It is hard to know when we are overly exuberant. Overok at so many things our shoulders, summoning things that happened that when things start to go better we ignore them. Until i see that enthusiasm, i think we are on fairly safe ground. Julie chief equity strategist at Wells Fargo Funds Management. Mark coming up on bloomberg we are going to get the state of the Media Industry with some big interviews at the media conference. 11 30 eastern, 4 30 london. Chairman, and also Mark Thompson will be our guest. Busy day. This is bloomberg. Mark the sun is the sending in london. I am mark barton. Julie lets head back to Abigail Doolittle. She is looking at Bank Financials leading the gains. We have bank of america, citigroup, and jpmorgan trading sharply higher. Jpmorgan is hitting a new record high. In the dowd high today. Interestingly we do have a bit of a contrarian call coming out of the investment bank. Analysts saying you want to book gains at this point. In etf up 10 from the election bid investors are loving these banks. Behind us, the move higher in yield. We had the 10 year yield up 10 basis points. This is also true over europe. 4723. We have the ftse bank index in white. Yield. We have the they are trading in tandem. Despite Political Uncertainty over in europe with the brexit and italy, we do have banks and yields climbing higher. Much yieldse how are going higher and influencing sector movement. Sector movement, we take a look at the financials versus the utilities. Financials have powered higher on this big move up in yield. As high dividend stocks have become less attractive to investors as rates rise. Pretty interesting inverse relationship to take a look at there.

Was created after regency agreed to by equity one. The combined company will own 429 Properties Around the country. Is the chairman of an international Shopping Center developer and largest shareholder in equity one. Thank you for coming in. Why did this deal between equity one and regency makes sense make sense right now . It tells you more about the need to consolidate. The combined entity would own more than 400 Shopping Centers in the core markets throughout the united states. Its going to be oneofakind. Create more diversity, better Pricing Power and a lot of synergy. Julie figure better right now in particular . Apartment Apparel Department store Asset Classes somewhat protected from the internet. More than 50 of our income comes from services that cannot be rendered on the internet. You cannot go to see a doctor on the internet. Not yet at least. More resistant than other industries. The size we have created gives risking to those entities gives us more access to more retailers being able to give them a greater offering. Create synergy to two economies of scale. If you run across i95 corridor in florida we have Shopping Centers on each exit. Its got to be cheaper to manage them together and so on and so forth. Im in london so i forgot to ask you a european centric question. Youve got a solid presence. Hot and whats not right now in europe . Whats hot is the nordic region. Her dominantly sweden and norway predominantly sweden and norway. Not so much finland. Europe poland and the Czech Republic are doing well. Germany is doing very well. We dont have any presence in italy so i cannot give you the news of the day. Marketly speaking in the and by the way russia is coming back. At least the new normal is normal now. And you dont have a presence here in the u k. Youve got the weak pound. Youve got low rates. Youve got a relatively strong economy. Could you be dipping your toes into the u. K. Market . It is conceivable. We paid a few visits and talked to people. My gut is telling me it is a bit too early. Wethe next couple of years believe there might be an opportunity in england. England was notoriously expensive for many years. Reason we could not find a good entry point so far. Maybe its changing. To ask you about the Holiday Shopping season. Obviously the grocery food business is less variable. What indications are you seeing about it strength versus last year . It is definitely stronger than last year. We have seen it all over the world. Ts not just in the u. S. Its canada and europe and brazil. Shopping andeople im sure that Online Shopping went up as well. Our foothold has increased quite dramatically this Holiday Season so far. Julie where are you seeing the traffic . Stores anded grocery doctors offices. Where else are used in the traffic . You see a lot of traffic going to the discounters. If 70 of the global population are going to be living in cities by 2050 what does that mean for your business . What does it mean when you have such a high volume of footfall. How is the industry going to have to adapt to that . Ecommerce is going to eat up a lot. You have a lot of inventory that people are not aware is dead already. Look at the Major Department stores. This is inventory getting ready the market come to and become a vacancy at some point. Its going to be repurposed into another form of retail or something else. It can become a school. It can become many things can be demolished and become a residential spot. Theres going to be more redundancy. We asked Shopping Center owners will have to put much more into the shopping experience. Its going to be more about entertainment. Its going to be more about food, people gathering. Not so much just about the shopping. Shopping will be somewhat incidental to the experience itself. Mark ive got to ask you about resilient. Last month you agreed to buy a stake in excuse my pronunciation. Its one of the highest and malls in sao paulo. Why is brazil such an interesting bad for you . Bet for you . People are not paying as much attention as they should wouldnt talk about brazil. Its a true democracy. It went through a major impeachment process very peacefully. Which tells you the strength of the democracy. Rule of law improved dramatically in brazil. People who are untouchable to her three years ago two or three years ago we have seen what happened with the impeachment. Bettere of law is far and this is a growing economy. 200 Million People with population growth of 1 a year. There are only three countries in the western hemisphere that growing population wise.

Earlier today on bloomberg surveillance tom keene asked brian belski whether this has room to run. Continue to focus on inflation. Stimulus plan but trump is talking about is really a shock to the system. We have seen a lot of diminishing returns for monetary policy. How do you respond to people who say the market discounts the future . Reactive and we have seen too much of a move in certain industrials. Tothe end of the day we need start to see the fundamental realities of these type of things. Thanks to all of oppenheimer funds. David gura and i visited friday. This is the amount of reflation we have seen in the fiveyear review of inflation. We are nowhere near repricing to inflation. How do you link bond dynamics into my equity 401 k . We have seen a really nice move. We need toof the day Start Talking about this great rotation out of bonds. The longer we see yields higher we see some of our clients start to see negative rail rates return. Focused toole are much on this move. Things are not linear for a long time. I think december is going to be a little bit quieter. They are watching the minnesota vikings. They are miserable. They are also miserable because rates are going up. The boat has left the dock on those low yields. How will they respond . They have to start growing again. They have to start spending money. Day people arehe missing what the platform is all about. With respect to the less regulation. Regulation takes time. I think the market is going to get ahead of regulation before its going to get ahead of tax cuts. The regulation thing hits right away because margins go up expenses go down. And earnings can go up a lot faster. That was brian belski. Julie still ahead, trumps twitter tactics. The president elect takes a fresh swipe at china on social media. This is bloomberg. Mark live from london, im mark barton. Julie im julie hyman. This is bloomberg markets. Donald trump has gone after china again on twitter. Us if it did china ask was ok to devalue their currency , heavily tax our products going into their country . We are joined by bloombergs International Government executive editor john. This tweet was in response to criticism of trump for taking a call from taiwans president. China has had the one child policy for decades now. There has been a lot of talk about how big a diplomatic brouhaha this will set off. President yet. What do we make of all of this . Thats a very important point to make. They could have chosen to express alarm and outrage at what president elect trump tweeted. Very much the word out of beijing is that he is not president yet and perhaps he is being badly advised. They are doing everything they can right now. Julie this is pretty much in line with what trump promised going into the election. That he would sort of speak truth to power. Hard to find folks outside of china who defend that one china policy. China are served of looking through a lot of that noise. What they see or what they would like to see in donald trump is a dealmaker, a pragmatist. There is a lot of noise but they would say that is a politics. Media toe state run spread him over the weekend as shrewd trump and refused to believe someone as shrewd as this would risk a trade war. That is the hope if not the expectation from beijing that he will govern other practices. Mark does this show the need for trump to nominate a secretary of state as soon as possible who can advise him and maybe explain his thinking to foreign governments. Thats a very good question. For him tovery keen appoint a secretary of state. Someone who can decode trump for the rest of the world. Even if you did get an articulate secretary of state the question would still be out there to what extent could you believe what the secretary of state says . That gets back to president elect trumps entire communication policy. Tweets extent are his official Administration Policy and to what extent is it just noise . Thats going to be a huge challenge over the next four years. What he really believes and secondly how much of that will actually be translated into policy. Huge problem be a for policy makers and executives and People Like Us over the next four years. Julie thank you. John is bloombergs International Government executive editor. Reaction to up, italys constitutional referendum. End oftes away from the the monday session. Its only monday. Stocks are rising after falling earlier. Bonds are declining. This is bloomberg.
