Global news 24 hours a day, powered by our 2600 journalists and analysts in more than 120 countries. I am courtney donohoe. This is bloomberg. Vonnie lets get back to the u. S. Jobs report for october. 161,000 workers and the Unemployment Rate dropped to 4. 9 as wages rose. This report provides further evidence the fed says it needs before hiking rates. Officials decided to hold off on a rate hike earlier this week. Joining us from irvine, california is Mohamed Elerian. Nothing to change the perspective on a december rate increase. What about the labor market . Mohamed what this will tell the fed is from a cyclical perspective the labor market is doing well, adding jobs, and wage growth is going up. Cyclically everything is fine. Structurally there is more warning in this employment report because the Participation Rate went down. The hope had been that more people would reenter the labor market but that is not happening. Cyclically fine, structurally more challenging. Vonnie what about the argument that the 2. 8 yearoveryear wage gain would argue for not that much difficulty . Mohamed there is less slack in the economy and the labor market. That is fine if it were not the fact that the employment ratio is 60 . Yes, it tells you on the wage front that things are fine but there is less slack, which means if we stay at this low level of employment to population there will be less people powering this economy forward in the future. Mark you said it is just going to be a matter of time before participations, rate or wages move higher and we know whether they have been impaired by demographic factors. Which way are you heading . Both heading higher or are you going for the structural side . Mohamed i hope is that both will had higher. My worry and expectation is that wages will go up but the Participation Rate will disappoint, and that will simply emphasize that we have structural headwinds and we need a policy response that goes well beyond relying just on Central Banks. Mark paul krugman spoke to us yesterday and said the fed does not know what is coming down the road, does not know what is coming down the path so what should not be raising rates in december. Do you have any sympathy with that view . Mohamed have sympathy with the view that we are facing unusual uncertainty and it is economic, financial institution, and political. I have a lot less sympathy that the fed should move because it some point, the Collateral Damage and unintended consequences of unconventional measures outweigh the benefits. I think we have gotten to that point. Todays employment report tells you absent a major shock to the markets because of the elections , the domestic indicators for the fed suggest they should hike in december. Vonnie so they hike in december and then what . Is the economy going to see some real inflation at that point . Mohamed we are going to see a pickup in inflation. It is not going to be something we wont worry about excessively but we will continue to see a pickup. What we should worry about is the extent to which markets have been disconnected from fundamentals because of reliance on Central Banks, and whether by hiking the fed signals it is less willing to support the market, and then you have the bank of japan less able to support the market. The big issue really is can the market continued to do relatively ok without the support of Central Banks . I have my doubts. Vonnie the Federal Reserve not going to abandon the market, right . Why should it now or why should work it are dissidents feel like it would . Mohamed first because the economic signals suggest the fed should be get out of being hyper stimulative. Secondly, within the central bank, there is more concern today about the threats to future financial stability. The fact that you encourage extensive risktaking excessive risk taking in nonbanks, that could be a headwind to the economy in the future. Does the reasons why one has to because its about this notion that the fed will be two reasons why one has to mark it is the essence of your argument that the Central Banks, the fed leaving it have replaced repressed financial volatility. If the volatility rises as the fed normalizes policy in a smooth and gradual way, and the boj has its hands tied behind its back, volatility might rise. Does that hamstring the worlds major Central Banks . Mohamed the Central Banks are increasingly in a very tough position, but it is not because it is their fault. They simply made the wrong bet in terms of how other policymakers would respond. They were building a bridge, never delivering a destination. The hope was that the politicians would deliver the destination by enabling a comprehensive policy response. What they have found out is this bridge keeps on going and the destination is elusive. Vonnie Mohamed Elerian is staying with us. More bloomberg markets. This is bloomberg. Vonnie this is bloomberg markets, i am vonnie quinn in new york. Mark live from london, i am mark barton. With two trading days left or polls open in the u. S. Election investors are having flashbacks to the brexit vote. This chart shows the upheaval that happened after the u. K. Decided to leave the e. U. , the referendum sparking price swings in commodities, stocks, and isds, and still with us hamed elerian. Wins the trump election on tuesday, do we see a similar or more extreme Market Reaction to the one we witnessed after brexit in june . Mohamed if donald trump wins the election, and if in his acceptance speech he reiterates his antitrade rhetoric, two ifs, then markets, risk markets will sell off significantly. Mark give us a sense, im going to put you on the spot, how much does the s p 500 fall in a day or two . How much does the 10 year yield to go up . What happens to the dollar . Mohamed if the two its materialize i would expect a 5 to 10 decline in the s p with the balance of risk towards even a greater decline. Why, because of liquidity issues. The bond market, the only thing you could say for sure is that Corporate Bond markets and high year bond markets with the hit highyield bond markets would be hit and station protected securities will do well. Currencies will be in a tugofwar and at the end of the day people may be surprised but the dollar may end up stronger if the two ifs materialize. Vonnie he said you would keep 30 in cash. What would you do with that . Mohamed that has been an important call because it has allowed you to stay on the sideline with a lot of resilience and not worry about what has been an eightday drop in the s p. I think the message of the markets so far this year is that the money is to be made in two ways. One, be more tactical than strategically positioned so look for overshoot and two, be very name focused. Name selection matters a great deal and in particular you want names with strong Balance Sheets , a Good Business model that can take advantage of real disruptions going on from a technological point of view, and a Good Management team. It is not great news for most investors that are just buying indices and hoping for the best. Vonnie yesterday paul krugman said the u. S. Was dangerously close to a failed state and that was not even related to the election but about congress and how extreme both parties have become, and how big the wings have become. Characterize that statement, is it an overstatement . Are we going to be able to hold on to our Investment Grade rating . Mohamed yes, we definitely hold onto an Investment Grade rating. I do not think that is threatened. What professor krugman was pointing to was the gridlock on congress and the inability to get anything done, including where there was agreement. There was agreement among many people on the need to improve infrastructure. There is agreement on the need to make the corporate taxes more growth friendly, and yet, no one is willing to be seen collaborating with the other side. We have not had a proper budget approval process in six years. This gridlock is inhibiting the source of policy the sorts of policy response you need to unleash a huge potential for this economy. Ask you what exposure you have to u. K. Assets right now . Mohamed i am a rather boring investor so i am not exposed to u. K. Names per se. I am much more barneveld. Barbelled. I think it is time to reduce exposure to Public Markets and have more cash, and go the liquidity spectrum to places where Central Banks have not distorted valuations. Mark Mohamed Elerian, chief Economic Advisor at elians. Vonnie in addition to jobs data and elections, investors are investigating corporate results.

It gives them access to small retail customers. That is your Bloomberg Business flash. Lets head to the markets desk where julie hyman has been looking at u. S. Trading. Julie looking at some of the biggest movers to the up and down side, im looking at the three best and worst performers in the s p 500. Nrg energy is coming out with estimates numbers that the estimates. Analysts told us the thirdquarter profit was driven by retail sales and Renewable Energy generation. We are seeing alexi on rise because they canceled on presenting at a Credit Suisse press conference on november 7. Sometimes these kinds of cancellations lead to speculation about a strategic move, perhaps some kind of acquisition so that appears to be accounting for the rise in shares. Industries, their thirdquarter earnings per share rising 21 , revenue up 7 . That is for the upside. On the downside we have an Energy Engineering company, the stock down sharply and the most in eight years. It cut its profit forecast because of a delayed construction project and its earnings target next year is short of analyst estimates. Rvo as well, concerns about Gross Margins pushing shares down. Isantec as well, the Company Still falling after its earnings report. I want to talk about earning season overall as well. You can take a look at the bloomberg at spx ea.
