Opec says it is confident it will agree to an output quota. Hsbc numbers crossing the terminal. Lets get to stephen engles. I am not getting them up on my screen. You might have to read them there. You want to shout them out to me . Lets get the latest from the markets. Relief rally a ahead of the election. Why . It all started with that big drop last week. Flowing out of risky assets. This morning, the fbi letter cleared Hillary Canton for a second clinton for a second time. Investors and for risks. A very good start to the week, coming off a steep decline, markets got sold off badly last week, now getting a decent bit. New zealand, 2. 5 of. 2. 5 up. Day the best day in months. Goldmining stocks falling. Were still getting a decent day at 1. 3 . 5 , which brings me to the subplot across asia, a massive drop among hong kong property names, 4. 5 . Apart from that, a good day to start the week. But nowump the gun now, it is out. Hsbc thirdquarter earnings. What is the latest . We are Getting Better pretax profit. Of 5. 59rter pretax billion. We were expecting 5. 2 9 billion consensus estimate in the Third Quarter. , 13. 9 ,er numbers here better than we are expecting of 12. 8 . It looks as though the basic numbers that have just come across are better than expected for pretax profit. Again, there are onetime charges for the sale of their brazilian unit, 1. 7 billion. Ome into the net income. Trimming 5 billion in annual expenses globally. They had some headwinds with weakness in the british pound. Thats affecting some of their businesses, and here in china come the weakness in the yuan and slowing economy affecting those numbers. Bottom line here is adjusted pretax profit in the Third Quarter of 5. 59 billion, the consensus estimate was for 5. 29 billion. Perhaps we can get a check on the stock as well. It was up preresults. It is paring some gains right now. Dollars, also traded in london and the united states, up about 1 . 1. 65 been up around before the lunch break. Like every is a bank other bank, deed retrenchment. The retrenchment. Retrenchment. Some 44,000 have been 44,000 jobs have been reduced as a result of cost savings. We had all the noise about the possibility of shifting headquarters, which did not come to fruition, but they are moving a number of jobs to this part of the world, so it is a bank in flux. We saw what happened in brazil includinghe scandals, switzerland. This is a company downsizing its global footprint and weathering a number of different global challenges, including of course what happened in the u. K. Thank you very much. The latest breaking down hsbc numbers. I it wasnt for the fbi memo, call it the election risk radar. Lets have a look. Some pretty tremendous moves. The mexican peso rising the most. Its the top performer. That is your chart. Valoryen, there is still a risk and reward. Some say with a Trump Victory you see 100. Rallyve had this relief in terms of risks and a proclivity for risk. The real risk is this, the federal reserve, and will it raise rates. Where would the probability of a hike in december go with a Trump Victory . 2year notes rise by five basis points overnight. Gold, three straight weeks of gains for the pain of politics. Today, we snap that. Gold could top 1400 on a trump vehicle victory. A real relief rally here. Angie that relief rally notable today. As you said, that u. S. Dollarmexican peso on the rise after the fpi reaffirmed that Hillary Clintons email use s secretary of state was not a crime. This is as investigators shun haven assets like the yen. We have not seen the market follow this closely every poll ahead of the u. S. Election. Yearslly speaking in past, it has been generic moves, is right now, what does volatility in currency markets portend after the results come in . I think it is telling you how binary Market Reaction may be come wednesday, and based on the 2008 in 2012 elections, there is a reasonable chance we will get the election called for one candidate or other during our early afternoon session on wednesday. The price action we have seen is telling us most of what we need to know. The other currencies likely to suffer most in the event that Hillary Clinton is the tories are those that have found the strongest safe haven characteristics, and that is clearly the yen, this was franc, and the swiss to some extent the euro. 20 peso went from 18 to against the dollar when donald started to narrow the gap. It has come back now. Basis, i dontd think he gets all the way back to 18 and the context of a stronger dollar. Its probably going north of 20 in the event we do find that donald trump has been big tory is. Been victorious. Happens if trump is ,ictorious and the yen rallies the market has two things to deal with. A stronger yen and the tpp. How much of a rally in the yen could you see, and could that fade . Tpp, the market is assuming this will not go ahead, even if Hillary Clinton wins, in its current form. It is unlikely the u. S. Congress will approve that package. The much bigger issue is how strong with a safe haven the. Haven be. 100 in we would not see the event of a Trump Victory. At what points might the boj be ordered to come in and stabilize things. Somewhere between 95 and a hundred. Given where u. S. Yields are likely to head and how risk markets are likely to respond favorably to a clinton victory, then something around 106107 by the end of the week is eminently plausible. It is a very binary outcome. Angie thats it. 48 hours. Is this shortterm enough to overshadow what is key to currency markets, which is centralbank action . Central banks, i dont know they are the force they once were, certainly with respect to Monetary Policy, and Central Banks have been the largest player in fx markets, particularly as fx reserve started to accumulate, and they have been one of the biggest buyers on the other side with respect to china and Oil Producers who have seen revenue crimped dramatically. In that sense, i dont think they are key, but this Monetary Policy divergent story will come back with a vengeance in the event risk markets are able to respond positively to the election, and thats why we think the u. S. Dollar has modest appreciation and ahead of it. Think again if we dont see risk off out of the election, number that one ther stands in the feds way, thats probably the payroll report. I think those numbers would have to be exceptionally weak to derail the fed from moving in december. What the fed will do will be key, and in the event of a risk off move under donald trump, i think the market would drastically scale down its expectations for the fed. Would that be good or bad for the dollar . And a risk off move, traditionally the dollar comes quite well. Hold those thoughts. Ifhave a lot more to get out you in terms of what happens with emergingmarket currencies. Stay with us. Emerging markets and much more to come. Lets get across to haidi lun with the first word news.

A Media Briefing after chinas top legislative body ruled that those who advocate independence cannot hold Public Office in the territory. Hong kongs chief executive is speaking right now. We are standing outside with more. He has been speaking and says chinas interpretation of article 104 is an important part of hong kongs constitutional and legal system. The Hong Kong Government supports the interpretation and will implement it accordingly. He also condemned the two people young inspiration, the young activists who change their oaths. China has stepped in to interpret hong kongs basic law. To cause waves as china interfering in the affairs of hong kong. This has been going on since last week.

Leung saying hong kong has been and will always be part of china. This difference is what sparked protests in hong kong overnight. Yes. This case was in front of the courts last week.

Lets return to our guest. He is the global head of Foreign Exchange at nab. The u. S. Election comes down to swing votes and swing states and voting. Where does the bid for emerging markets come . I think emerging markets and journal will suffer a significant selloff. Looking at the way the currency has behaved, we have seen most emergingmarket currencies trading in that risk onrisk off frame depending on the perceived volatility possibility of mr. Trump winning. Of thefed is out equation, there is still a risk that in a severe risk off and barman, the u. S. Dollar could bidet a been against against emergingmarket currencies. We will see the yen getting a safe haven bid, but in general emergingmarket currencies will selloff. Withomplexity will come respect to opec and the possibility of coming up with some production deal. We will see a lot of oil sensitivity and things like the git will be sensitive. Oft will add another layer complexity to the emerging markets story in the wake of the election. If clinton is victorious, we will see the dollar moving ahead , but sentiment towards emerging markets, the reduced threat of increasing protectionism, is something that will play well for emerging markets. Briefly, a look at sinceund, the this week 2009. Youp in the white house, are still thinking that kind of level . That is the kind of level. Manus quick answer there. Is the area.

A 40 stake by the end of january, the ceo says the deal agreed in july depends on the ailing italian carrier meeting certain conditions. The Italian Government spent months trying to mediate between manus oil is never far from our mind. Since 2014. Rally full risk coming down. The banks have been dead. Are we in a sweet spot for saudi arabia . Great to have you with me. In saudi . A sweet spot we have seen a big shift. Three weeks ago, we were talking about it being the second worst stock index. We were looking at interbank rates at their highest in seven years, since the wake of the financial crisis. We saw the cost of insuring saudi arabia and debt higher than dubai. Things have been remarkably changed following the Saudi Arabian sale of 17. 5. Illion bond the tadawul has chalked up 12 gains in less than three weeks. Declined for six days running. Sibor,we talked about. He market i just had that discussion with Claudio Descalzi. The entire situation is dependent on the price of oil, but we also have the election which could impact. What is the more important thing . The price of oil or trump and the white house . We have to be clear. Trump in the white house is seen as a danger to emerging markets and terms of risk off sentiment. Policies are negative for developing nations, but saudi arabia is a close market for a very long time. Last year or the two beginning to open out to Real International investment. About moreently talk likely the oil price and the impact on saudi revenues is what counts. Saudi is trying to diversify its economy away from oil, but the bulk of government revenue is still dependent on energy sales. You only have to look at brent today, but still 46 per barrel. Not ideal for saudi arabia, so i think they will be focused on that opec deal if it can be agreed, and hopefully for them increasing the price of oil. The bank stocks have been among the strongest performers. Not just in saudi. We also have the egyptian story. These banking stocks are getting a nice relief. . He bond market, any update impetus any additional on that in terms of investors . That really has bolstered the sentiments story, hasnt it . Indeed. S it is the largest emerging market sovereign bond sale in history. That has brought down the saudi interbank lending rates, a barometer for liquidity in the system. Likes of one of the largest banks and saudi arabia gaining for 15 Straight Days in the stock market. That is the best run on record for them. Liquidityre, the squeeze, easing of little will release pressure on the banks and they will continue to again, theongly, but backdrop remains the oil price. If we keep seeing depressed prices and the opec deal does not impact prices, saudi arabia still has huge work to do to get its economy away from that dependence. Note, we will draw a line under this conversation. Thank you very much. Angie. Angie coming up, we will be live in mumbai to find out what is on theresa mays wish list us she tours india. This is bloomberg. Angie egyptian shares surge the decisione march as the to float the pound will pave the way for a 10 billion loan from the imf.

That is what people are telling me. They must be handsoff. Exactly. I think the central bank has made it clear in all of its announcements on thursday that interbankeaving the and the market supply and demand to be in action, and i think we volatility, and Market Participants are testing their boundaries to understand what will be the backlog of demand. I think we will see the rate probably go up a little bit or overshoot to clear the backlog before it stabilizes again. We are hoping that Foreign Investors will then start to get interested. Angie yep. We will leave it there. Thank you so much for that. Mumbai, where to theresa may is looking to strengthen ties with india as she kicks off a threeday visit, joined by 30 business leaders.
