What are the odds of a biden adjustment in the trump adjustment. Beene Biden Campaign has sticking to the course. Ae biden has not been holding campaign schedule. President trump, ramping up his rallies. He had three in pennsylvania yesterday. Hes got up to five and six plans per day. This is the same trip the same strategy he deployed in 2016. Tom the same strategy has 2016, based on what you see in the polls, there were 84 polls out yesterday, its hilarious. Based on what you see, is there any indication the president s strategy is working . Is he closing the gap . Kevin yes. In terms of pennsylvania and florida, it is a razor thin margin. Incrediblyeel confident in pennsylvania, florida is a tossup. When you have Kamala Harris going to texas, a political hail mary for democrats, they have always wanted to flip texas, the question will become in the postmortems of next month whether or not they should have focused on battleground states as opposed to expanding the map. There are a lot of unknowns. In terms of the strategy, for President Trump he has got to win back the rust Belt Coalition 2018,e lost ground to in as well as with suburban women voters. For joe biden, he has to attract rust belt voters that Hillary Clinton was not able to turn out in 2016. Francine there is a rasmussen poll, for the first time in a month trump is leading nationally. It is one pole that was sent to me by a viewer. What do i make of it . Kevin rasmussen typically has been the outlier. Savvyr, it has also been in terms of how it has been able to predict the republican turnout. Sense of the Republican Base and their enthusiasm, that is what this comes down to. Enthusiasm. Are republicans enthusiastically going to show up and cast their an election where 50 million americans have already cast their ballots . That is the big question mark. Are issues like coronavirus going to be driving voters to the pole . Or, the economy . Questionhe biggest mark heading into the election. Francine at this point, President Trump could still get a second term. Is it two intend . What is the probability . Kevin i will politely dodger question. [laughter] i dont think anyone is counting out President Trump on the left, nor the right. He did it once. Know if he feels his back is against the wall. Democrats think they can pull off an upset. The biggest question on the left is what kind of President Joe Biden would be . Honestly, he didnt really answer those questions in the past week. Maybe it is by design. , manyhington, d. C. Sources i have talked to are trying to figure out what joe biden would look like. Tom i see a desire to figure out the marginal hispanic vote in florida. How does mr. Biden do that . He has got to have them turn out, but he also has to have this understanding that there is a catholic vote amongst the Hispanic Community in florida that typically has leaned more republican. To 2000, 1999. In terms of getting them to turn out, i think there is an issue of economics. They think it is much less democraticsocialist issues beyond the catholichispanic vote, and it is beyond economics. For many in that state, they are an underserved community. Tom you look tanned and rested. Kevin cirilli, our chief washington correspondent on the seven day dash to the election. We wont know where we are at 2 00 a. M. Wednesday morning. Coming up, we drive forward the political conversation. Dow futures up 33. Mr. Munson will join from pgr group. This is bloomberg. Tom following a number of stories. Chinamakes an a judge makes an adjustment on the yuan. Google out with a polished pr statement. They are going to work with ap on election results, for what thats worth. Futures up eight. Dow futures of 32. Emphasizing that is david rosenberg. Slicing and dicing inflation, folding it over into market reaction. David, lets begin with inflation. In europe with a five year breakeven, do you assume a and largerd rising inflation in the years to come . Time i have a tough believing that inflation is going to become a sustained problem, at least for the next three years. The outlook cap, or, the differential between aggregate demand in the United States is far too high for me to be worried about inflation. I know that it has become a headline of late with breakeven levels, my forecast is a bit different. I think the consensus on this doesnt mean we are going to go through a period where some of these cost pressures in the material sectors deep through. Inflation is a process. Have continuously accelerating prices, not to just one off level shifts. I think the narrative has overdone it on the inflation side. It is going to be years before we see sight reading eye your stuff at merrill lynch. The basic theme is different because Service Sector is such a mystery in this pandemic. What is the price persistency of the Service Sector in collapse in a Natural Disaster like this . What that is really things are this time. Normally in a recession, Service Prices are sticky. You get deflation and commodities of the cpi or the pc deflator. This time, it has been flipped. I am not a believer we are seeing sustained increases out of materials. I think that is temporary. More related to the chinese economic recovery we are seeing. I am not looking at commodities being a sustained source of inflation. The Services Side is interesting. Ofn you look at the cpi, 30 the index is related to residential rent. 40 of the court is residential rent. I do nothing i do not think people have thought through the commodity sector is a two bit player. The dominant feature here is we are going to go through in the next years, a massive increase in vacancy rates in the apartment sector and strive down residential rates on a sustained basis. That is going to overwhelm everything happening in the price indices. On the crvs focused index, not really looking at what is dominating here. It is about the rental rates, we are already in the process of disinflating. That is going to dominate. I think the breakevens are out of whack. I am focused on china. Industrial profit is up. Consumption is up. Could we import inflation from china . You could argue we could import some inflation from china from the fact that there growth is stimulating demand for commodities. Last i saw, you dont walk into walmart, go down an aisle and buy a pound of copper. Theinflation thrust from commodity sector to a Service Sectorbased economy like the u. S. Is small. The way you import inflation for many company is on creatively goods, but that is a small part of the picture. It is nothing compared to what you are going to be seeing on the Services Side. Francine i dont buy copper, but i buy everything else, usually plastic, made in china. Talk about emerging market currencies and how they would actually move and change depending on who becomes president after the vote . David it is tough to say. Ive never thought of any particular president has any say over where currency goes. U. S. Dollar there are lots of reasons to be bearish on the u. S. Dollar, but it has come down quite a bit. Who is in the white house really matters. Had secondarket has thoughts and the blue wave, not because biden is going to lose but because people are thinking, is the senate going to flip . It probably wont. That doesnt matter who takes over the overall the oval office, it depends on the legislative branch. When you take a look at emerging markets, another homogeneous entity, currencies are not like bonds or stock, you have to value them on relative basis. It is also benchmarked against what is happening in other parts of the world. I would hazard to say i think the u. S. Dollar will be on a weakening trend against a lot of these emerging asian currencies because they handled the pandemic better. They didnt blow their brains out on fiscal policy, they are going to come out a lot more quickly. There is a bullish case. To answer your question, insofar as what it means for emerging asia. You are already seeing it in the yuan. Those currencies are already strong vix vix in the new year. Tom thank you so much. Great commodity perspective. Coming up this is going to be an important conversation with oil. West texas, 38. 99. Jeffrey curry of Goldman Sachs. Always informative. This is bill burck this is bloomberg.

A subordinate filed suit saying she was forced out after she spoke up against sexual harassment. Oldman says the allegations are without merit. That is the latest. Francine thank you so much. This is what we are looking at in europe. A lot of focus on earnings. At some of the Biggest Drug Company reporting, it is a bit of a mixed fortune. Of course there is the relentless spread of coronavirus that is impacting a lot of stocks as well. Crude, higher. Green anad red and hour ago, futures up nine now.

Of course, bouncing back and forth between mr. Micron and mr. Erdogan. I want to Say Something about our political coverage, Kevin Cirilli following everything. Here, spearing forward these next seven days. Of course, we go to election coverage through the weekend and into the first tuesday of november. On that perspective from Lester Munson of pgr group. An interesting twist here on the strategies forward. Stay with us, from london and new york, this is bloomberg. Pres. Trump covid, covid, covid. Thats all they talk about, the fake news. What progress we have made, too. We understand it. We know we have to protect our seniors, especially when they have diabetes. We have the best testing in the world. Thats why we show so many cases, because we do more testing. We are doing great. Here i am, i am here too. [applause] line, donaldttom trump is the worst possible person to lead us through this pandemic. I dont think he has any idea what to do, or just doesnt care. Tom the campaign, it is interesting. We speak of trump, trump supporters, mr. Biden, a lot of focus on the shades of the democratic experience. What about the republicans . Interesting, maybe you can define an old line republican, the be the pgr group. R group. With a privilege of working with the gentleman from mississippi, Lester Munson joins us. On the middle ground for republicans. I am absolutely fascinated with the great unspoken, how does the Republican Party regroup with the Trump Victory . Trump victory or a Biden Victory . What is the party do the first monday of november . If it is a Trump Victory they are going to have to make a tough decision about biting the bullet and joining the trump wing of the party, or becoming democrats. If biden wins, there is going to be gnashing of teeth within the Republican Party. There is going to be blood in the water. Hopefully that is resolved quickly and to party can reformulate itself on the hill and with a new candidate for 2024. There are a lot of interesting things ahead for republicans. Tom part of it is an representation of your area which is the state department and Foreign Policy. What is the distinction you see if we rebuild the state department . How will that occur under a biden presidency . Biden is a much more mainstream, traditional, washington oriented politician. He has been there 50 years. He knows Foreign Policy. He has a team of people who have worked with him for years. Everyone who works in a Foreign Policy has some familiarity with joe biden. I dont think theres a Single Person who doesnt know him so him doesnt know him so how. He will come out with a lot of familiarity and that might make it easier for him to recraft things. That is, if he is able to grab hold of the hill. Hes got support in the senate to be able to do things he wants to do. The table could be set for him to do interesting things on Foreign Policy. Francine what would joe biden, as president , due in the first 100 days . Would he be focusing on Foreign Policy . To have a he is going very domestic focused administration. That is what he has been talking about. He is going to be focused on coronavirus, having a different response than the Trump Administration has had. He will be pushing out Public Health experts more than President Trump has. That is a good guess. On Foreign Policy, i think he will take a number of steps to visit withliances, traditional allies in europe and the far east, and to do the trump wast president not willing to do. Traditional photo op summit events. Francine does President Trump still have a shot at this . Could he get a second term . I think he could. I think it is going to be very close. The numbers are very similar to 2016. We have always known that donald trump has under pulled where his real support is. The numbers look very si
