reporter: we are definitely in the endgame. the big question is how long the endgame is going to drag on. trade negotiations do tend to drag on for a while, so there is a real possibility this can go beyond this week. at the same time, we are getting lots of noises that we may be close to some kind of announcement of a date for a meeting between xi jinping and donald trump. that would be a meeting to close the deal and that would of these they be incredibly encouraging. that is the first time that the two leaders would have met or since december 1 last year, when they began the trade truce that led to current talks. haidi: what have the main issues been? there are many left to resolve. what are we learning about what kind of shape this deal is taking? shawn: what you always end up with in the trade talks are the hardest issues. the really political issues. politically sensitive issues left to the end. there are two big ones. how long the u.s. will maintain tariffs on china, and how it will scale them back in response to good moves from china. secondly, how in the longer term in the coming years i deal will be enforced, to make sure china is living up to its commitments. we have gone a long way in terms of the content of the deal from a simple package of purchases, soybeans, natural gas, etc., to somehing that will involve broader commitments toward economic reforms by the chinese that would cover things like intellectual property, the forest transfer of technology, and possibly industrial subsidies. only thing i remember from last week was china saying that there was new progress on the talks. shawn: to be fair, we are not hearing in public very much from other side. you heard larry kudlow said the has been progress. he didn't give much detail beyond that. likewise, the chinese have been indicating progress. those are good signs. that is a sign that both sides want to make a deal and both sides are under pressure to make a deal. if you look at the market rally we have had in the first quarter of this year, a lot of that is the result of settling fears about a trade war. i don't think either donald trump or xi jinping want to blow that up again. bloomberg's and globalization reporter shaun donovan joining us with the donnan joining us. theresa may suffering another defeat in parliament, with mps defeating her vote. that included a time limit on the eu membership failing. .otes are still underway let's get the latest trendy international government editor. what are they voting on tonight? where we at? is there any sense that the last round of boats on potential different options, one of them got quite close -- are we getting any closer to anything close to a consensus? reporter: we're moving pretty quickly through the amendments tonight. these are amendments to a bill that is being been very quickly and it is hoping to pass in a single day to rule out a new deal exit. have beene amendments passed with nods and shouts, rather than full discussion. we are getting close to the end, the vote on the deal as a whole. that is a key one. so far, in the amendments, attempts to weaken the bill have failed. they are trent up a hard limit on things like time. so far, it seems to be heading toward a quick completion, possibly in about 20 minutes. that primenow minister may met with labor leader jeremy corbyn earlier. what has come out of that meeting? rosalind: they did indeed. they sat down and said the first round was constructive. this talks were constructive but inconclusive. it seems that theresa may did not get a lot of ground, they are making again tomorrow morning on what they say will be technical issues. the real elephant in the room is whether theresa may votes for the customs union on the table. that is a potential price for labor, who would like to be tied more tightly to eu trading rules. so far, there is no indication of that. these discussion seven going on for several days. the main thing is that they are happening. lot about the a survivability of theresa may, but so far, she has managed to cling to power. i was looking at the potential for elections being held? key thing is what she comes up with jeremy corbyn. if it does become a live option for that field, she could really face a significant backlash from the hardliners within her own party. that could come down to a mutiny. for a year after that initial -- they could call a vote of no-confidence on themselves, the entire government, risking bringing down the government in order to avoid a stuck brexit entirely. that would trigger an election in the coming months. theresa may had said that her job is to get brexit done and step down, and whether she was the leader to lead the tories into another election would be very much up in the air. this is critical for her in the coming weeks. we hang on what she comes out with him terms of a deal with jeremy corbyn. haidi: really appreciate that. our international government executive editor on the line from london as they voting continues. we are keeping an eye on any outcomes. breaking news saying that the nissanthis on autos -- autos head arriving, according to nhk. according to nhk, without saying where that it obtained the information. will bece says ghosn questioned on breach of trust and was rearrested. we are reporting that in another bizarre plot twist, drama in his long-running legal troubles, the former chairman maybe rearrested on charges just as he had tweeted that he was planning to hold a news conference on april 11 to tell the truth about his side of the story. these allegations against him on financial crimes. we are hearing reports from nhk that he has arrived at the prosecution office after being we arrested this morning. more on that developing story as details become available to us. in the meantime, let's get the first word news. the reserve bank of india meets leaders wednesday, with observers saying they are scoped to cut the key rate, get -- given inflation. cut,ase case is for a 25% along with dovish language. whatever the size of any rate cut, the r.b.i. is inspected to inject more liquidity into the banking system. the bank of japan has shown some rare good news with demand in the economy exceeding supply in the fourth quarter but the most in 26 years. the governor has repeatedly pointed to the output gap as a confidence measure that the bank will eventually achieve its 2% inflation target. cpi's lead to 7/10 of 1% in february as exports and growth weakened. former malaysian prime minister has appeared in court to deny the first seven of 42 charges he faces in connection with a scandal. at least $4.5 billion disappeared from a fund with more than $10 million landing in one of his accounts. he is accused of corruption and money laundering and has denied any wrongdoing. global news 24 hours a day powered by more than 2700 journalists and analysts in more than 120 countries. i am selina wang. this is bloomberg. ♪ haidi: still ahead, facebook is hit with another privacy scandal as millions of records are found on amazon cloud servers. shery: up next, don't give up on japan. is time to buy japanese stocks. this is bloomberg. ♪ is bloomberg. ♪ haidi: counting down to the start of trading this thursday morning. looking like an unchanged start to the day, although elsewhere, taking a look at the stats in tokyo and hong kong, looking at the global equity rally. closing pretty close to the highs, ending fractionally a u.s.e with hopes that china trade deal may not be far away. haidi stroud-watts in sydney. shery: shery ahn in new york. you are watching a break us china. investors are looking for meaningful progress or substance around the deal. its promises and the proposals currently in the works. is nikko asset management americas chief global strategist and says it will take a lot to shift the needle. good to have you with us. does this mean that trade optimism has been priced in, no more room for upside on this front?

the fed and other central banks are behind the curve and have overdone it, given some of the data that is coming recently has suggested that we see a bottoming out when it comes to global growth. john: close to bottomed out. certainly, there is a chance. we think there is a good chance for a hike in the fourth quarter this year, given the economic recovery. bond yields have bounced back quite a bit. nobody is expecting a tremendous problem going forward. if the fed hikes in the fourth quarter, that is not the end of the world, as far as we are concerned. the meantime, the fed turning dovish is giving emerging-market central banks reading space, with the exception of india, which we are expecting to move later today. i want to take a look at relative performance of stocks. this has been a crowded trade, after what has been a torrid couple of years. they are currently sitting at the highest in six months, or the biggest rally we have seen in that time. shanghai, china stocks crossing the 3200 level for the first time in about the year. is there further upside?

christopher: there is no question. i will take a step back and think about this. 40 years ago, the u.s. used to get out foreign aid to our countries around the world. that became politically unpopular, so we moved to a trade strategy where we gave trade versus aid, or trade not aid. the has done so well that most of these countries we allowed duty-free access to our markets have grown into our competitors. we are now in a place where we are trying to rebalance those relationships and we for see that happening with china. -- having worked at the treasury, i worked closely hauser and i have supreme confidence they will be able to deliver a comprehensive agreement. the market may not have priced that in, because of a relationship we have had the china in previous administration's and this administration, it has been difficult. i think the president has suggested he is willing to take -- make the tough calls and impose tariffs necessary to discipline an outcome that he believes will be the best. haidi: how do you work your way around making a deal that is doorceable, sustainable, how you do dispute resolution when you have an administration that has been against traditional institutions like the wto? christopher: in the early part of this administration, the president had some skepticism about wto, but i don't think that is going to stop a conference of agreement. use thehe will international institutions to be able to discipline a comprehensive agreement. i think it will be good for both the states and china. remember, these are symbiotic relationships. we have a symbiotic relationship with china, where it can bend but not break. china must have access to u.s. consumers and right now, we are dependent on manufacturing. at the end of the day, we will discipline a good agreement and i believe the administration will not reach an agreement unless it will rebalance in some way. the problem with china is that we get these promises, but the implementation is where it becomes challenging. what will be an effective implementation enforcement mechanism here? sanctions, tariffs? christopher: i think the president will keep everything on the table. he has demonstrated that he is willing to impose sanctions and tariffs to make sure we get to an agreement and i don't believe he will take those off the table. shery: there is so much political infighting, it seems like the one issue everyone agrees on is having to be tougher on china. you're trying to achieve fair trade with china. is the bar set to high to satisfy everyone? christopher: everyone loves to set the bar high in washington, is my experience. this is one of the reasons we started and institute to be able to look at comprehensive issues, because we hear so much from our clients on the challenges of global uncertainty. that is borne out with china. at the end of the day, we have to step back and think about, how can we get to a better deal? i'm fairly certain and confident that we will get someone. haidi: do you think the bilateral strategy is working out? there is some criticism that the u.s. has made it difficult for themselves by creating vacuums in the asia-pacific. is it better to try to get back in with the tpp, for example? christopher: as you know, that has gone forward. personally, i think it was a mistake to walk away from tpp. i think they are re-examining their position on this. i think it is very important that we lock in our economic agreements and relationships with countries around the world. certainly within asia. had tpp enforced now, i believe it would have raised our profile and given us more leverage. i don't believe -- i think we will still be successful in china absent joining tpp, but i think that agreement is one we should look at. is volatility something we should expect in the next coming decades, given that we know the relationship between the u.s. and china will continue to create tensions and frictions in the years to come? christopher: it is agree question, but i think we will have to see what the agreement is. if it is comprehensive and allows the u.s. to be able to take their grievances and find a way that will be safe and fair on both sides, i think you see a lessening of the challenges. if it doesn't have that, they will maintain volatility, but i know the ambassador light hauser to mnuchin, it is their goal see that there is more certainty going forward. i'm confident that we will be able to get that agreement done. shery: sources are telling bloomberg. the u.s. has said a 2025 target to get china to meet some of their trade pledges. this seems a very limited timeframe. can they really get to an agreement that will involve structural changes from china that need to be achieved by 2025?
