ofi think it caused no end consternation and questioning when president trump tweeted 140 characters or less foreign policy that china had "tried," past tense. that drove a lot of questions to say, is this the end? president trump had been saying that the u.s. will be letting china have space with north korea. the death of the university of warmbier,tudent otto people in washington saying unequivocally that north korea killed mr. warmbier. his death has raised a lot of questions whether that is working. that tweet prompted no end of questions, leading to the chinese response tonight. >> it was interesting to hear from rex tillerson and jim mattis. they were speaking for chinese help when it came to north korea. we are trying to get clarity. thatard reports from seoul the north has made a surprising officer. the ambassador to india says pyongyang will halt weapons tests if the u.s. ends wargames with the south. speakss hard to know who for who and north korea. obviously the guy at the top speaks for everybody. but it is an open question. the american society is skeptical of north korean office. -- korean offers. the american side is of the belief that north korea tends to operate cyclically, that they will escalate, people will put pressure, then they will deescalate and ask for favors, etc. until we all get dizzy and fall down. that is where we have been for a while. maybe that is that cycle. i am seeing questioning from the koreans about the terms of this, and whether there will be any action. koreansi think this administras looking for action. words are very nice, but the opinions capitol hill lawmakers have been telling us is that otto warmbier is dead and is not coming back. no words at this point will change that. we will look forward next week to see how south korea will play engine this. still ahead, slicing up the pie. chip visits could keep the technology at home. >> foreign minister to i run to expand iran wants cuts. brent crude also entering this bear market, down over 20%. this is bloomberg. ♪ >> taking a live look outside tokyo this morning. we are coming down to the asian first market open. japan futures unchanged at the moment signaling we could see modest losses at the open in tokyo. this is "bloomgberg daybreak: asia" live from hong kong. slumped worsening. brent falling below $40 per barrel and joining west texas into this they are market. concerns about raising supplies are negating opec attempts to drain the global glut. fge andand chairman of former energy adviser to the prime minister of iran joins us from singapore. walk us through what is been happening in the last 48 hours. seems like there is plenty of oil and these opec cuts aren't doing much. it seems that the opec compliance is more than 100%, but there is too much oil on the market. the key factor is u.s. tight oil. it is not 100% bigger than what opec expected. at the hundred thousand dollars growth. ria, libya from nige -- there is too much oil on the market. we need a 700,000 barrels per day cut in opec to bring the price back down to $50 per barrel. betty: we have also heard from the iranian oil minister overnight saying that some members are concerning more cuts. will all members be on board in this? everybody gets together and the saudi's may have to cut $500,000. the only one that will have to swing down substantially is saudi arabia. saudi production in november 2014 was 9.5. the saudis can afford to grow back 500,000 barrels to be back where they were when they started going up through their market share policy. i don't think they have a problem the same way as it was in november. yvonne: how likely will they do that? fereidun: i think very likely. if you don't do it, prices will sink down to $40 or more. with the promotion of the new crown prince in saudi arabia, which has his policies tied into , with themarkets impending ipo of aramco, there seems to be no choice but to cut production to move prices. if you boost it down, six months from now you have the same problem again. betty: day again. g#btv 297. the 50 day moving average falling down to slightly below that 200 day moving average, which will signal that brent crude prices are likely to fall further. what prices are we looking at as we lose this momentum? are we looking at a take action price, wait and see, or is $30 where the bottom is for some of these countries? as long as the price of oil is $45 or more, the u.s. producers can keep their nose above water. if it goes below $45, they will be in trouble. it is sustained for an amount of time. if to get prices to hit $40 per barrel, you will lose production on tight oil. opec cannot wait. to have to cut production to lift the price. if not then the bear market will push the price even lower than $40 per barrel. yvonne: he mentioned the newly and how hewn prince, has been the architect behind foreign policy. the question is what he will do with this consolidated power. do you think he could be hesitant about cutting production for the saudis given that this could benefit iran at the end of the day? tensions between those two nations are high at the moment. fereidun: when it comes to oil, they see yee to eye. this conference is decisive. i think he will have no problem cutting production. betty: thank you so much for joining us on the big story for the markets. sge.founder and chairman of a dubai billionaire joining us on bloomberg markets middle east as we discuss a shakeup in saudi arabia, the isolation of qatar, and oil prices, that is at 12:30 hong kong time, 2:30 if you are watching in sydney. this is bloomberg. ♪ yvonne: this is "bloomgberg daybreak: asia." after months of speculation, finally inching closer to the toshiba sale of its memory business. freeing up cash that it needs to pay its creditors, putting it back on the path after huge losses from its nuclear subsidiary westinghouse. we are joined by our asian technology editor. who makes up this consortium of buyers? >> the consortium is two japanese government-backed funds, the innovation network corp. of japan, and bank of japan, as well as bain capital out of boston. there will be minor players. essentially they won over another consortium led by broadcom. the key part of it was the participation of these state backed funds. they are the ones that essentially running along with them the japanese government's stamp of approval. that is why they were announced as the preferred bidders yesterday. toshiba has stated they will try to reach a final agreement with them next week by june 28. bain consortium make it easier when it comes to getting regulatory approval? what is the timeline? reed: definitely -- as i mentioned, the japanese government is wary of key technology moving overseas, especially to china or south korea. so really the participation of japanese investment in some form essentially reassures everyone and helps the deal go forward. in terms of deadlines, final agreement within one week. after that, closing the deal with due diligence and hurdles is for march of 2018. money ontoiba gets its books, it will have trouble being listed under tokyo stock exchange rules. betty: what about western digital? will they get in the way of a steal at all? reed: western digital was wary of the toshiba memory chip unit going into the hands of broadcom. broadcom is out of the picture now. the question is whether toshiba will continue its efforts to block the deal. they have an injunction they have asked for. i think a hearing on that is in mid-july. anything can be worked out. presumably the buyers have agreed to go into final negotiations, have considered the legal risks to be not too huge. there are questions whether western digital will remain in the next or -- in the mix or not. yvonne: what about that should dismiss and -- the chip business and plans for restructuring? reed: chip business will lead a lot of restructuring going forward. this is a capital intensive enterprise. a question is whether private equity and state funds are willing to put money into a very expensive business. betty: reed yvonne: its 7:30 a.m. thursday in hong kong. 30 minutes away from asia's first major market open. a little bit clearer today than it has been. yvonne: i will call that good so far. p.m. wednesday it the big apple where markets closed, relatively flat today. tech shares rebounding helped gain solid gains for the nasdaq. betty: you are watching "bloomgberg daybreak: asia" coming live from our headquarters in hong kong. let's get the first word news from courtney collins in new york. courtney: mark mobius says emerging-market stock prices remain good value. earnings are growing. he told us developing nations developing -- nations technology shares are increasing. he hopes india and brazil can on an beijing's impact sdi indexes. -- msdi indexes. >> it is now 26% of the way, which is ok. this will not happen overnight. it will take a number of years. the good news is that hopefully india and these other markets will grow so that they will begin to balance out where china is. that remains to be seen. betty: the man who built wonka into china's biggest developer is stepping down as chairman amid a tussle as control. shi becomes vanke's top shareholder. that compares with the gains for rivals china everglades and country garden. amazon is said to be ready to sell nike shoes through a brand registry program to keep fake goods off the site. sources tell us that will let nike have greater control over its products, making sure counterfeit goods are offered by third parties. the idea sent shoe retailers tumbling. foot locker, dick's sporting goods and jv sports all slumped. president trump is sliding down the bloomberg billionaires letter as his office properties bring in less cash than creditors expected. his net worth now at $2.9 billion, down from $3 billion one year ago. the calculation relies on data compiled from lenders, mortgage documents, market data, and a new financial disclosure released just last week. global news 24 hours a day powered by more than 2700 journalists in more than 120 countries. i am courtney collins. this is bloomberg. betty: let's get more on what should be watching. trading is underway in asia. the new zealand central bank cap rates -- kepts rates on hold. rates are fairly dovish. where does that leave the kiwi?

been theer has always poster child of that company that didn't want to go public. resign, evenck though he retained a lot of control of the company, theoretically he would not be as vulnerable to being pushed out if it had been public, but we saw the same thing. pressure after months of scandal and controversy, the ceo was pushed to resign. it was his choice, but obviously there was some discussion that led to his decision. i think they will go public sometime. i don't think anyone expects it to happen this year. yvonne: thank you so much. certainly every day has been a new development at this company as they are sorting out things internally. won a feature we would like to bring it to your attention is our interactive tv function. you cannot only want us live -- dive intoive, but bloomberg securities and functions. you can be part of the conversation by sending yvonne and i messages. this is for bloomberg go>.cribers only at tv< betty: why have investors been holding off on making deals after president trump took the white house?

open. not much going on with japan futures, going nowhere this morning. this is "bloomgberg daybreak: asia" live from hong kong. betty: global mergers and dealmaking is heading to its lowest activity sense 2013. the $1ntly crossed trillion milestone amid the divergence of stocks and m&a in the u.s. let's discuss the outlook with co.'s staffer. we have been talking about the now times of m&a, and people are saying with all that is going on, should the fed raise rates? m&a activity has fallen off the cliff. will have to continue? -- will that continue? >> i might quibble with that assessment. we believe at bain that this is a healthy market for m&a. betty: you would think that htough. >> it is my job to advise companies. let's break it down a little bit. what you think about the critical requirements, we believe there are four. the first is liquidity, and that borrowing rates are manageable. the second is that there is enough stability in the country that ceo's know what is coming down the pike. the third is a regulatory environment that is conducive to deals, and forth is a tax environment that is predictable. liquidity and borrowing is strong. altogether we think this is a fairly healthy market. back to your point about the numbers, the 2017 numbers are indeed lower than 2015. over the last 20 years, this is still a well above average market for m&a. yvonne: i want to bring up a chart on bloomberg. this is g#btv 308. i don't know if you can see it on our screen. let's pull it up. it shows the inverse correlation between political uncertainty and m&a volume. when you see political uncertainty, like here in 2016 spike, m&a activity actually falls. if i reading this chart correctly, we are at another point where political uncertainty is on the rise and m&a volume is on the decline. do you buy into that, that correlation between the two? dale: actually i do. i would argue there are a few other factors. particularly i think about the regulatory and tax environments, and the ways those can impact m&a. imagine you are a business development manager at a fortune 500 company and are thinking about doing a deal when you cannot predict what your tax obligation will be, when it could swing 10 or 15 points based on predicted regulation. you don't know what the cash flows are. you need some predictability to have comfort you are valuing assets in the right way. i believe there is something to that correlation. it is a function of what is going on in the start market as well. are ceo's feeling some hesitation on these companies that are less affordable these days? dale: there are two things worth talking about that i don't think that enough press. one of those is a strictly regulatory structural thing. we call in 2016, the u.s. treasury rewrote the tax inversion rules that limit the types of deals that can benefit from those. there were a number of deals in 2015 that had as a key part of their thesis, text conversion. -- tax inversion. not only were they a lot of those deals, but those were dealsals, $40 billion that no longer make sense anymore since the treasury rewrote the rules. that is one thing. the second thing is that we are in a period of absolute capital abundance. it is very easy to get money. it is very easy to raise debt. we look at how cfo's are operating, they still operate with a psychology of capital scarcity. that means they are not always making investments that they might ought to make because they are keeping their hurdle rates higher than they need to be given the abundance of liquidity. that applies to the m&a market especially, when deal and equity values are going up and i'm keeping my hurdle rate higher than it should be, predictably it is harder to make those deals pencil out. yvonne: does the u.s. stand as an outlier? in europe, despite brexit, we are seeing m&a deals of these days. japan also looking for growth abroad. dale: there are different stories as you walk along the globe. europe is up, asia is up, u.s. is down. there is not a consistent story across the globe. yvonne: chinese m&a appetite -- has that changed? it doesn't seem like they are backing down on capital controls. dale: it is hard to imagine that won't have an impact, as the chinese government considers outflow of capital from china. it's hard to imagine that won't have a downstream impact on outbound m&a from asia. dalee: thank you so much stafford, during this from d.c. more breaking news on uber. betty: uber director bill gurley is set to step down from the board as well. ofwill be replaced by

in sentiment in the equity state and asia. we do have copper on the rise, up over 1.5% in shanghai. perhaps to be seen more as a barometer when it comes to global economic health. the correlation between oil and stock volatility has been seen easing, so perhaps we are able to shrug off what we are seeing in the oil. oil futures are still signaling weakness, the likes of exxon and chevron

i'm going to keep buying bonds. so far pretty good trade this year. the question now of course, can the fed really keep hiking rates and start reducing the balance sheet if inflation remains weak. the latest thing is the crude oil market falling into a bear market, a supply glut that persists. prices continue to fall. what do they do? , nothelp curb inflation what the fed or any other central bank wants to see these days. let's look at the bloomberg, #btb 63. we are looking at the fight against crude oil prices falling. this is the white line. it was up above 2% year-over-year on the cpi, now has fallen below. brent crude, also falling. you can see how those two lines broadly follow each other. of course, moving on to the next part of this chain of events, falling inflation, low oil prices, that was the bond rally earlier. we had a guest on bloomberg television, and here is what he said. >> the fed is not terribly concerned that inflation is not continuing to go higher, but they do not want to see it continue to erode. the one sign of inflation the market has waived in front of it every day are oil prices. they have been heading in one direction for a while now, and that is having a big impact on the bond market. kathleen: we know what bulls are like when you wave a flag in front of them. patrick harker, another voter on the federal open market committee, speaking today. he wants balance sheet reduction to start in september, another rate hike, but he says if inflation continues to erode, maybe you can't move in that direction. he is echoing charles evans from the chicago fed, also rob kaplan from the dallas fed making the same kind of statement -- can't raise rates if inflation is moving in the wrong direction. now,cb deflator is at 1.7% supposed to be a 2%, moving in the run direction. the rate hike odds have also moved lower. september odds now at 21%, december rate hike odds at about 37%. far from even a 50% that at this point. bond market bulls continue to doubt the fed. betty: adding to this bond ball speak, bull fire so to someone at pimco saying there is a substantial risk for deflation. kathleen: he says the fed has a substantial risk for a hawkish mistake. here are some of the key points about what he has said in his blog posted earlier. he says that right now, the u.s. economy could be just one shock away from a deflationary scare. the fed basing rate hikes on phillips curve, the idea that low unemployment is going to boost inflation is questionable. if it stays on this path, they could submit low inflation expectations, the last thing the fed wants to do. let's take another look at the bloomberg chart, #btv 5900. you see measures of inflation breaking even. the breakevens are breaking down at the two-year level, the white line. turquoise is the five-year break even. 10 year yield you can see is the yellow line. it is also heading lower. you can see how the fed is flirting with the thing it wants to avoid. that is what a lot of people are saying, hike rates to avoid inflation, maybe you will cause the next inflation. he does say in his piece that one of the legitimate concerns the fed has is keeping inflation bubbles --uel asset excuse me, keeping interest rates low, because people reach for yields and take risks they shouldn't take. that is one reason for the fed to be concerned. yvonne: we have got three central-bank meetings in asia the next several hours. we just had the rbnz several hours ago. what is expected out of thailand and the philippines? kathleen: let's recap the rbnz a little bit. they did hold their rates at a record low. they did not protest against the strong currency as some thought. graham wheeler is the head of the rbnz, also signaling they are not going to raise rates for a considerable period. he thinks inflation will move lower. another said bsp is also meeting. no policy change because inflation has decelerated a little bit. gdp growth looks lower. taiwan's central bank also seen on hold. they have got a stronger currency that is suppressing inflation, so no change expected. a central banks can surprise, so we will see what happens next. yvonne: kathleen hays, thank you. still ahead, waiting for their health check. take a look at how u.s. banks will do in the annual stress test. betty: trumps criticism of china's role in handling north korea hurt ties between washington and beijing. a are going to talk to professor at a university next. that is donald trump speaking at a rally in iowa. this is bloomberg. ♪ yvonne: "daybreak: asia this is live from hong kong. i'm yvonne man. betty: i'm betty liu. china has hit back hard at president trump, saying his efforts in north rea have been indispensable and played an important role in seeking peace. yvonne: in response to president trump's tweets, which said while he appreciates the efforts of presidency in china to help -- president xi jinping in china to help, at least he knows china tried. joining us is the associate professor of chinese studies at young state university joining us live from seoul. we're still trying to get clarity on what the u.s. is asking from china. you saw that tweet from the president saying thanks but they are going to wait on their options. then you have jim mattis, rex tillerson at this meeting speaking for china's help in reining in north korea. who is the prevailing voice? >> the best reaction is one chinese expert, quoted as saying we don't assume that president's tweets speak for the administration, which is indicative of the confusion over what signal to take. at this point, i think we do have to assume that that tweet has something real behind it and that we are moving what president trump is signaling, that we are moving into a new phase in terms of how his administration approaches north korea and there are no longer going to use this strategy of hoping beijing is going to solve the problem for them. yvonne: that's right. at what point does the usa, we are going to go at this ourselves? the death of otto warmbier has sparked outrage in d.c. is that going to be the catalyst for the u.s. to act on pyongyang alone? >> there is a lot of balls in the air right now, as is often the case in the korean peninsula. i would not forget south korea. another thing going on is the president here, moon jae-in, is heading over to washington soon for his first meeting with president trump. another angle to this is if the united states stops running its , thise through beijing could be a shift to working more closely without south korea -- more closely with south korea, which has not had a government during the time donald trump has been in office. this is the first opportunity for the united states and south korea to work on this since trump has come in. some people are leaping to a conclusion, if trump says we are no longer waiting on china, it means he is going to order military strikes. there is a lot in between those two steps and one could be working with the south koreans. betty: it absolutely could be. as you rightly point out, south korea has been meandering along in their own internal controversies, but they seem to be back on track. partt to play for you one of what rex tillerson, secretary of state, said about the situation in north korea. reiterate to china that they have a diplomatic responsibility to exert much greater economic and diplomatic pressure on the regime, if they want to prevent further escalation in the region. betty: you mentioned there is a lot in between doing nothing to military strikes. what about some economic measures against china, for instance, to get them to do more on north korea? could we be looking at even the u.s. imposing sanctions on chinese banks, for instance, as a way to get them to do more? >> and that has been on the table for a while. that would not be surprising. the u.s.-china relationship is a big one, as you all know, in economic terms. i'm not sure if the trump administration can make those kinds of decisions, initiating what could turn into this trade war that some have feared over north korea issue. chinese pressure, they actually have been gradually stepping up their pressure on north korea for a variety of reasons. it does have a role to play, but pressure from china is not the solution. ifondly, it is effective united states is talking to north korea and working on a deal. in the absence of that diplomacy, it really gets you nowhere. i think maybe the trump administration has realized -- betty: i want to mention we are looking at donald trump at a rally in iowa. fact glowing from the continues georgia and to be on the campaign trail, so to speak. john, before we go, has trump kind of boxed himself into a corner where military strength is a very real option here in north korea, as he did in syria? >> no, i don't think so. he has left all doors open with north korea. he said he would be honored to meet with kim jong-un, so he is leaving the negotiation door open. he probably thinks it is effective to have a credible military threat backing a new diplomatic initiative. i think there are many directions this could go, and it is too early for us to know where they're going to head. yvonne: john, thank you. from sk hynix inc. yonsei -- from university joining us live from seoul. trump has called the trade deal between u.s., mexico, and canada a total disaster and said he would rip it up. an exclusive enter with that fits with an interview with bloomberg, mexico's finance ministers says there is room to modernize nafta. >> we are in the process of modernizing it. he says we are going to renegotiated. we could put some other objectives to it. if one looks at the north towards theion, airports, railroads, highways, electricity, oil and gas pipelines, there is an american region where if you look at the infrastructure, it is difficult identified the voters. one could argue whether that came about because of nafta or whether nafta came about because of a real dynamic that made the north american region something that made sense in and of itself. mexico has a lot of free trade agreements but none of them have resulted in the level that the north american region has seed. -- has seen. it complements our economies well. napster brought it to life and naftad it along -- brought it to life and prodded it along, but it is difficult to argue it was nafta contingent. there is a core dynamic between our economies that make it reasonable to trade, to integrate, to have markets, to participate in the global economy as a block. the largest bloc in the global economy will continue to be, for the for seeable future, the north american economic block. we think there is space to modernize nafta. we think we can do better. many things are happening today that would be natural to include in an integration program either that don't exist or that don't have economic capabilities of putting it on the table, and now we do. i think there is opportunities for canada, the u.s., and mexico to come out with a better integration process. happens. dialogue consensusing to a that it makes sense for us to find agreement on the basis of what has already happened that has been positive. we want to continue to see competitiveness and dynamism. --wendy you expect agreement when do you expect agreement? >> from the perspective of uncertainty, which many of the indicators show the uncertainty and anxiety about the mexican economy have been reduced dramatically. i think that is already happened. this group of possible outcomes has rebounded by the economic reality behind the integration process and the desire for parties to release ache -- to reach a constructive and positive agreement. betty: that was mexico's finance ministers speaking exclusively to bloomberg's matt winkler. some big names coming up on bloomberg. on "bloomberg markets: middle east" we will hear

this is what it means on your screen. in a possible disaster scenario, equity prices as we know them could plunge by as much as 50% by the end of this year. as for unemployment, that soars to 10%. right now under 5%. the deals with the biggest banks, at least $50 billion in assets. to give you a frame of reference to last year when we reported on this, all the banks did do well, they all passed, all 33, but morgan stanley actually came up a little short. 4.9% in terms of the leverage ratio. the minimum is 4%. state street as well as bny mellon came in within 2% of the minimum as well, so they were also just under the radar. looking ahead, we are expecting results coming in at 2:30 p.m. eastern time, when the fed releases its results. 4:30 p.m. is when the embargo lifts and we can talk about it. betty: that is part one, but if they don't do well, it is not exactly game over, right?
