I wanted to point out that operatorhe hypermarket here in france had its first decline in hypermarket in two years.

What happened in north korea. Do the russians get involved . Our geopolitical problems going to outweigh what we saw going on in markets . Since 2012. Ok a big spike in the Global Financial stress index. Not as bad as it was during brexit or the financial crisis. But it is getting back up there again which could mean volatility. Manus this is how we are going. Going through the opening rotations now. Waiting for the first numbers to come through. 100 in the white. Taking a little lower in the london market. Due to the moves in the minors. Miners. Down a quarter of 1 . Anna, good morning. Anna let us start with what has been going on in the asian session. Focusing on the china story. We had a number of markets in asia playing catchup. The downdrafting from the iron ore weakness in the iron ore price. Are finding market it difficult to make some headway. This chart helps us put this into context. Trouble making headway in some of the asian equity markets and part of that had to do with the iron ore story. No surprise that we see the material sector is one of the weakness is one of the weakest ones. Down by 0. 6 . The overall equity picture for europe is looking pretty flat. Whatng to play catchup to we saw in the u. S. Markets yesterday. Many markets were closed yesterday. The s p equities are up 0. 9 yesterday. Almost making up for the almost inlost they saw last week trading due to the geopolitical concerns. I was drawn to a report to a from the San Francisco fed on the u. K. Economy. The weakness in the pound economyng that the u. K. Is getting weaker. Possiblylittle support to the cautious concern from the bank of england. How cautious are we to the inopean equities, french particular ahead of the elections. We talk about the nervousness but then we speak to many guests and investors who say that they are not preparing for this in the same way that they did for the brexit and the u. S. Election. That was the view when we spoke to peter fitzgerald. They say they are not positioning themselves in the same way they did before those two big events in 2016. Are we overdoing the results in 2017 . Not long to wait for the French Election results. Manus checking in on some of the big movers in the european session. Anheuserbusch is up. Followed by sanofi.

To 52. 65. 0. 2 that is the play on them on the opening. Matt in turkey, the president says his referendum victory took place under conditions that were democratic beyond compare. He belittled domestic and foreign critics to the process that culminated in the slim majority of the voters giving him more power. How do these geopolitical risks move markets, if at all . We have the Senior Market strategist with us. Thanks for your time. Us what you think about the results and how markets should take those results . Good morning. With turkey, it is absolutely a crucial country. It sits between asia and europe in a strategic place. In a nutshell, markets should not be particularly worried. We have analyzed 16 major geopolitical events going back to 1950 and overwhelmingly, they do not tend to stay in the conscious of the market for very long. Turkey, and there are elections, weigh at does not the same level as those. There areterms of em, a number of different factors including the fed and the commodity cycle, including iron ore. , and we look at e. M. Said why would i buy u. S. Treasuries when it is a negative return if you look at getting just over 2. 3 and inflation is at the same level. E. M. Bonds is where you want to be. Where would you take the risk in the end . Pay a. Bonds obviously lot more in terms of yield. These countries are growing much faster and they are less indebted. There is a case to be made on those factors alone. Having said that the barclays a emerging market bond index. Is that really where you see value . There is certainly value. Undoubtedly. But you have to realize that much of the return that comes from e. M. Bonds is a direct function of the currency. I know that they have performed very well recently. And we like that but we preferred to take our exposure in equities. About risks, talk geopolitical risks, how important or how high do you rate the French Elections . There is some concern that with a third of voters still undecided, you could end up with a Marine Le Pen victory, which would be unexpected, or melenchon. There are just cointrea four candidates right now to make the second round. There are two important factors. One, is going back to 2016. Big geopolitical shocks in terms of brexit and the trump victory. No one could have seen that coming. But on top of that, no one could have seen what happened to the markets next. Had you known, what would you have done . Was it a Good Environment to enter markets that were oversold in the lead up in the lead up and fear it leading to those things. Will not know how markets react. Having said that, the risks are evident. If Marine Le Pen wins, which is unlikely at the moment, the risks are quite high. Becauseold on to that, we are going to spend more time on the french risks in a moment. Ambrose will stay with the show. It is a big day for u. S. Banks. We will preview the earnings from bank of america and Goldman Sachs. And in france, the final leg. The sunday French Elections loom large. This is bloomberg. Matt welcome back to the European Market open. I am matt miller in berlin alongside manus cranny in london. Let us check on markets. First at the woodys and then current seized because of the that we had out from Steve Mnuchin over the weekend. Here you see the equity moves in europe. 12 minutes into the session. Looks like we have found some direction on the continent which is up and in london, it is down. Weighedrs are heavily in london. You can see the stoxx 600, the broader indexes, gaining that only by 0. 2 . Take a look at my screen here. I have pulled up a currency look at the expanded majors. The reason i do that is because turkey is here. The lira is the biggest gainer against the dollar of all of the expanded majors after the Election Results out of turkey over the weekend. The pound showing a little strength as well as the ruble and the swiss franc. Interesting to watch at any time of geopolitical uncertainty. In terms of losers, commodity currencies. Including the Australian Dollar and the South African rand there at the bottom. Let let us look at the midcap movers. Nejra starting with a stock that has hit a record high in this session. Galapagos. It is a biotech company. Up 4. 3 . Moving on reports of it launching a proposed share offering. That is why we are seeing that move today. As zeno is down 0. 3 . Reported the first revenue declined in two years. In france, nonfood sales face more competition with ecommerce. Latin america compensated a bit for those numbers. We are seeing these shores move lower, down 3. 8 percent. I put pandora here because it is the worst performer on the stoxx 600. Down 6. 2 . I dug around frantically for headlines. I cannot work out why it is moving so much. It is getting a lot of traction r but not a lot of headlines out. Manus there you go. Needs to head out and get some more jewelry. Let us focus in on what could move today. Talking about the u. S. Banks. Bank of america, Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley all reporting numbers before the bell. The Senior Market strategist at ambrose is with us. Looking at the Bloomberg Intelligence analytics. Global investment revenue is showing a strong First Quarter. We dug a little deeper and hsbc is saying that it should be a positive. Growing at 25 . If you are an investment bank, it will be a good quarter. Ofif you look at the results j. P. Morgan and citibank, same stories. Revenue is strongly up. The problem was the commercial banking revenues were not as strong. It has been a good quarter for banks but the Bigger Picture is what happens in terms of their future and earning potential. Given the fact that yields are coming down in markets and the yield spread has also come down is a big reason why banks have, have recouped some of the ins they had from the highs the trump election. They have reversed those. Will be paying close attention to this as well because they have done better as rates have been raised. The green line is the fed median projection. But the market doubts we will see this. Is this why bank shares have come under pressure because the market doubts we are going to see Interest Rates increase as we thought a couple of weeks ago . It goes much further than the last couple of weeks. Onwards,ok at two 2009 the banks have always been higher than the market trajectory rates. The market has been right all along. It tends to be bullish about the ability to come to some degree of normalization. The reality is that markets have not supported it. And as if by magic, our charts producer has produced that spread for you which is obviously in part the reason why we are fading in this move. But you draw attention to the treasury secretarys point in terms of getting ready for a delay in tax or four. That will not help the banks. And, get ready for a huge move in doddfrank. I do not hold out much hope for doddfrank. Of bank and a number ceos are saying to me that they do not expect a huge correction in doddfrank. What we have seen in Health Care Reform and other proxies for change in u. S. Regulation have not been very bright so far. Mnuchins comments this morning has been nothing but an exercise in bearing down our expectations. What can the government do, do you think, beyond that to help banks do better . Or do you think the Trump Administration really has that front and center as far as their policy is concerned . That is a good question. The Trump Administrations policies are up for anyones guess. The best i can comment on that. Of theirthis is one key campaign promises. To take a hatchet to u. S. Bank regulation. Banks searched on the back of that. At one point, they were up 32 following his election. Since, they have come down quite a bit. And that is because it expectations were else to quite a height and they have come down dramatically since then. Strategistr market with ambrose. We are going to keep you with us a little bit longer. Brexit challenge. Could making contingency plans for brexit and up hastening the departure from london . We will discuss more what is going on in europe. This is bloomberg. Anus 8 21 a. M. It is a Beautiful Day in london. Let us get another word, a business flash with juliette saly. Thee the video of ceo of United Airlines has assured wall street that it will rebound from the pr firestorm. It will be a watershed moment for the carrier and it is determined to put customers first.

Environmentalists say the well is out of control and want authorities to investigate. It is producing well below its 1980s peak which was 2 Million Barrels a day. Chinas bright food has agreed to sell weetabix to serial maker post holdings. The valuen pounds is of the sale. It purchased it in 2012, 1 of several deals it made with foreign Food Companies. As it wanted to expand its global footprint. Risk regulators inadvertently hastening the loss of some banking operations from london by pushing lenders to make detailed plans for the worstcase brexit scenario, according to people familiar with the matter. They say Senior Finance industry executives are concerned bank of england and the European Central for contingency plans may spur activity to the continental. Fahad is still with us. Let me ask you for your take on this. Shouldnt these banks be prepared for a worstCase Scenario in any case, whether or not they are asked for these plans . Unpreparedo to be for a worse Case Scenario is poor planning. But, there are a number of reasons why london cannot be replicated by picking up a few thousands of jobs and placing them elsewhere. Dublin has financial services. It is a financial center, par excellent. It will be difficult to recreate the synergies that exist in london. Of timehort period which continues to give london a comparative advantage for the foreseeable future in this business. Tothink that will continue be a huge feather in the cap of the city of london as it is not easily replaceable. This is a story on the terminal today. Scott hamilton has written about this. Nw3 production up 24 . Covenant gardens, 18 lower. , you should bett able to get in there. This is a real manifestation of bankers leaving. Rinse are down. Property is under pressure. I dont think it is just that. Is a lot of thrust in that market. If you look at any valuation measure, prime london was already beyond anything.

They are down by 1. 9 as you can see. The crude spread was discovered friday morning. It was capped by sunday. And a second leak was closed off overnight, sunday night. A little bit of a reaction there. Talk again in the market about what it is that opec may do in terms of extending the coverage. Rio tinto and glencore also lower. Has beeni am more under pressure. You must ask yourself a question about how much further we might go. The new fee sanofi. Unicredit, they are all just a little bit stronger this morning as your pays plays catchup with the u. S. Fear and loathing in las vegas. The final week of campaigning for the french presidency is underway with no clear winner insight. The latest poll shows there is very little separating the four main contenders. Support for macron, read the pen, francois fillon, and melenchon, the race has become the most unpredictable in history. It is crunch time. Candidates desperately trying to t especiallysuppor for the undecided voters. What happened at the weekend rally . Caroline just five days before the first round. The most difficult task will be for Marine Le Pen and emmanuel macron. A hardle pen is having time expanding beyond her base. Violent protests broke out, outside her rally in paris. Police had to circle the venue. Export some guests. Went up on stage and try to interrupt the meeting. Despite this, Marine Le Pen tried to stick to her approach on immigration saying she would do a moratorium on immigration as a first test before coming up with a plan to leave schengen. I will and schengen and restore our national borders. No other candidate is proposing this. None of them. We opened the doors of france to s and has and to mafia terrorists. Caroline meanwhile, the macron,ent candidates, had a rally in paris in front of 20,000 people. He attacked melenchon, the far left wing outsider, saying it would be cuba without the sun. Was in paris. Mocked those saying he is a risk of for the financial market. He joked in english i am dangerous. Peoplecalled the french this week to consider him. Manus the last few days of campaigning. Great reporting. Let us bring our guest back into the conversation. Cuba without the sun. Thinking about. If history is anything to go by, take a look at this. It falls after every first round election and it rises after the second. I am not sure that necessarily this will hold true, but if it is a fee on but if it is a sunday,Marine Le Pen that could hold true. We are all focusing on the first round. But if you look at the odds for what is going to happen in terms of an actual presidency, the odds of something disruptive in terms of a Marine Le Pen presidency or even a melenchon presidency is very unlikely. If you look at the margins of error in terms of all the statistical polls, brexit was in the margin of those areas. And the Trump Presidency was as well. A Marine Le Pen presidency is far from the margin of error and that is important to keep in mind. Matt you point out that this is why markets have exhibited little volatility so far. When you see those pockets of try to playdo you the other side and take advantage of that . We do not try to play anything in the short term. That is not our philosophy. We are a longterm house. Ourof the key tenets of process is to look at sent to mince is to look at sentiments in the market. If you look at the poll results and the very unlikely expectation of a Marine Le Pen markets arethen the not behaving erratically. They are behaving within the scope of expectations. Manus the one thing that comes through from a number of different conversations i have had is that italy is by far, the much bigger risk. The potential for fivestar to get in there is much higher later in the year and that is a europe breakup risk. Much higher than anything we have seen thus far. The fivestar movement is similar to well, it has come out of nowhere and has become a serious political force. It is important to step back and look at this a generous a genuine populist wave moving the world. And heads ofkers government are going to have to address at some point is that there is a tremendous divide within countries, between urban and rural, between rich and poor , for lack of a better word. Between people benefiting from globalization and those that are not. Until those root causes are addressed, you will continue to fight populism threatening the status quo of the world, the political order as we know it. And that is something that should come to the forefront to policymakers, sooner rather than later. Matt thank you so much for your time this morning. Thrilled that you are going to be sticking with us here at bloomberg and joining us on the radio. Myself and anna edwards in the next hour.

Thene concern is whether turkish structural reform agenda will be disrupted by further elections or another referendum. The president himself said in a victory speech last night he promised a powerful referendum on whether turkey should reintroduce the death penalty. Confident are you that we well not have a snap vote or a referendum in between now and the next scheduled elections . The ruling party has never hasd opportunistically and never try to go for early polls. We have been in power for almost 14 years. There has always been talk of early elections. And we have never had a reelection. That is number one. Number two, the president also made it very clear that the next elections will be held in november 2019. And that there would be a period of a adjustment and transition. Cleark he has been very that elections are not on the agenda. The debate on Capital Punishment , a referendum on that, that is a separate issue. But even if that was to come to the agenda, that would not be as timeconsuming as it has been in the past. We are joined from istanbul by our reporter. He said the president seems bolstered by his referendum. What did he say . He doesin three words, not care. Simple as that. Brushing off a lot of the criticism and concerns coming from european officials. Reported an unlevel Playing Field going into the referendum and that conditions were short of international standards. The president making it clear that europe should know its place. On the other side of the coin, you have President Donald Trump congratulating the president on what was described as a victory in this referendum. There are a few developments in the last hour. Chpis a report that the deputy chairman will meet with the election board head to contest the election. That process is being formalized domestically. The other Important Development is the International Development and that comes with additional from ans we are seeing lot of the officials outside of turkey and ultimately, the state of emergency which was the other major factor, that has been submitted to parliament and the National Security council made the recommendation to extend the state of emergency which would have expired on april 19. This government feels it needs to stay. Manus thank you very much. Our bloomberg anchor in turkey. Up next, we will focus on oil.

Me at granny is alongside our European Headquarters in london. Quick look at the markets. Of oftarted as a mix trade has now turned down. Eading the loss are the miners the stoxx 600, the broader is down overhmark 0. 5 . Notets are losing steam just losing steam but heading down and declining more and more throughout the morning. Itshas managed to halt decline ahead of official data forecasted showing you as inventories fell for a second time. Let us bring in Tracy Alloway in a blue dobby feel like we have fallen into a familiar pattern. Caught between rising u. S. Shale output and opec production cuts. That is exactly right. We are back in that old pattern. To some extent, you have seen it born out in the price of crude. It feels like we have all of these bits and pieces of data coming out of the market that you can kind of sees on seize on either way. We did have rigged data coming out on friday saying u. S. Rig data has been growing for 13 weeks now. To come out tomorrow should show u. S. Stockpiles have fallen for the second week in a row. That is pretty good if you are looking for rebalancing. Theome extent, we have seen uncertainty reflected in the commentary from the endless we are getting from the market. Citigroup says rebalancing is coming but u. S. Shale production is still likely to come lowering roaring back. Even they seem to be struggling to square the dynamics a little bit. Manus the dynamics we have to talk about shale in the Permian Basin. We did see a relatively big deal go through yesterday. Give us the details. When we talk about shale right now, we almost always mean the Permian Basin where there has been a ton of activities and oil prices have rebounded. A return of animal spirits in the Permian Basin born out by a bunch of Corporate Action there. The latest thing that happened was monday that we had blackstone and announcing it was eagle clawy midstream ventures for 2 billion in cash. What eagle claw does is operate a bunch of gas hike lines in the Permian Basin. And gas has been a popular play. If you that we were all worried just about crude oil, the Permian Basin and the u. S. Shale patch, we are also worried about gas production. If you look at the production toures, we have had it rise a record every month so far this year. If you are worried about the Energy Market rebalancing in general, you can add gas onto your list of worries in addition to crude oil. Manus never far from worry in the oil market.
