As White House Senior Adviser Jared Kushner defends President Trumps handling of the covid crisis some people have chosen to play politics with the pandemic President Trump opted not to politicize it and help people get whatever health they need. Jp morgan and Goldman Sachs dumping almost 13 billion worth of shares across sectors in total. So lets just talk a little bit about the headlines. Theres a key focus on renewed lock down risk in many European Countries and the fact that germany has stepped forward and said that its going to quarantine those arriving back from spain has added another level of complexity but when you look at the market, theres no evidence that that is holding back Risk Appetite this hour we see the ftse and the cac 40 all in positive territories. The impact of potential travel restrictions is royaling the Airline Stocks and those other stocks that are effected by limited travel opportunities you have other sectors also a little bit weaker. Having said that, look at the top line here, chemicals, basic resources, industrials all of them seem to be split at this Point Financial services up as you can see here and technology and basic resources are showing the best gains at this stage in the market session we do have gains on the board for the european markets this comes amid a spike in infections in spain with 50,000 cases reported in the past 14 days talk us through the new restrictions put in place by the German Government and how authorities are talking about risk when it comes to imposing these travel restrictions on german travelers so its the main holiday destinations for germans and came as a surprise on friday and in reaction to that, the biggest European Tour operator thats catering to many tourists has cancelled all of the bookings going forward. Hardly operating destinations like the islands because so far theres no travel ban there but thats it. But the rest of the island is actually perfectly fine so i guess its completely on as to whether this is exaggerated for germans or not especially if you look at the statistics where the corona virus is getting reimported from, its not spain. Its mainly serbia, bul dprks aria, those countries that have many people going to their families to bringing them back and have big family gatherings thats where the coronavirus is getting reimported so the Health Minister said its just a travel warning. Its not a travel ban but the problem with that is that people might actually be mandatorily quarantined and perhaps even lose their pay because some employers are saying if you still go despite a travel warning you will not get paid because you have to selfquarantine. So i guess theres a lot of risks and germans, as others do as well, dont really like the risk and the perspective to go somewhere and have to selfquarantine afterwards and thats why were going to see many, many cancellations they are close to their record corona low because clearly any hope from that slight up stick in demand is actual livly vanisg now. Because this just the beginning. Thank you for flushing out that part of the travel story. Its not just spain in focus, france is also in focus. The country has accrued over 3,000 new coronavirus cases for the second day in a row. It prompted both of them to extend requests to include outdoor locations. Theyre now investigating 263 virus clusters amid the resur ye resurgence also a 14 day quarantine on travelers returning from france. Lets bring in the Senior Investment manager for Aberdeen Standard Investments good morning, good to see you back with us lets pick up on that. I was taking a point at the top about just the divergence that were seeing in different sectors and there doesnt seem to be clear logic as to whether this is a pro value or antivaluable or procyclical or anticyclical. If anything we have a whole mix of sectors that are higher at this stage and how would you characterize whats happening around different sectors. Im glad that you said it doesnt seem to make much sense. That saves me doing so i would suggest that we probably have more days that fit that bill than anything else in recent times but its very much a narrative driven market. Thats the way to describe it. Once you lose any growth expectations, once you lose value, understanding, what it is that youre paying for today and how that compares to your own expectations for how the Revenue Streams have been Given Company your sector will change overtime and you merely buy stocks because theres a story on a given day that you think should be quote, unquote, good for that company or sector. It does lead to this direction this choppy market when theyre not changing so dramatically on a daytoday basis a better job on uncertain Economic Outlook one thing that we can say for certain is a spike in the virus data but were also seeing a dramatic improvement at the survivablity now theres an 80 likelihood that youre going to survive because were seeing treatments that effective for saving lives. Does that mean actually the market is becoming just neless sensitive to the impact of the higher infection rates they have become some what more targeted and as you describe actually, the virus has become far, far less, you know, fatal. What were seeing is that it was probably the weakest we are seeing very few different relationships from the number of districts and death. You have to consider the number of tests going on and things like that. For now that doesnt seem to be shifting the government response what were seeing is a very small number of cases have a Rapid Reaction it can still be economically significant. I dont think that markets can get to the stage where they can completely ignore that whether that government response softens and changes through time because of the cost of benefits with regards to human lives and with regard to the economy you say that markets are narrowly driven at the moment. And do these spikes that we have seen across europe fit the narrative or is this new information that changes the narrative for investor thats a good question. It depends on whether youre a bull or a bear it does appear to me to be quite rampant. Just the nature of the virus is that it does spread very, very easily so unless you have shut off the country completely and confirmed that you have no cases at all for a number of weeks its highly likely that the virus will return and if the economy is operating in a more normal fashion then its likely it will spread quite far before you realize that its back it shouldnt have been new information. The narrative seems to be emerging about controlling the virus. We should be trying to manage the Health Effects and policy response rather than controlling. Europe had few and europe was doing great. U. S. Was doing terribly and at that time i thought the narrative had gone too far and we would see a normalization which is to say a slowing of infection in the pace in the u. S. And increase in europe and thats what were seeing now on that point were seeing rising numbers in europe and according to some indicators, improvement in the United States why hasnt this translated into renewed Dollar Strength . Thats a very good question i have been wrong on the dollar now because i have been bullish and the market has tried to embrace the decline narrative but one of the reasons its so difficult is because it by definition means the rest of the worlds currencies excluding the dollar will be stronger. Most dont tend to react well. Certainly not at a time facing their own economic challenges. So for me its difficult to get that without it being in a Global Economic upswing thats being lead by the rest of the world. I think all other environments tend to be okay for the dollar if not very good for the dollar. So at the moment, i think again this is a bit of a push. Theres probably been a lot of positions that have been structurally long the dollar and we have seen some of those clear out. Obviously euro dollar which is a huge percentage that a lot of people look at thats still working through the system but i really do look at that Recovery Fund and the european Economic Outlook and i struggle to justify the bullishness thats emerging around the euro. So for me, this is its still going to be more difficult to come by for the euro dollar rallies from here and therefore it still favors i think owning some long dollar risk. Well end on that note. Always great to speak to you, james. Now a couple of new developments to highlight for you in the health care space, novavax is launching a phase 2 trial of its covid19 vaccine in south africa thats after they signed a deal with the u. K. Government to provide 60 million doses of the vaccine if its approved by regulators theyre due to start phase 3 trials in the u. K. In the third quarter. Sanofi struck a 3. 7 billion deal to buy the u. S. Company its designed to boost their rnd capabilities and theyre very involved in the race to find a vaccine and this deal is separate from the coronavirus but no doubt using the strength to help gain investor support for this deal. Thank you just something to bring you before we run into break here. Theyre saying there will be no new election he is under pressure about allegations of the way the election was conducted speculation that they had several phone calls with russian president putin over the weekend and that has emboldened him to reject calls for another election to take place with closer monitoring. The theyre saying there will be no new election. Jared kushner plays down hopes that the uae israel peace accord could lead to an overnight change in Saudi Foreign policy more on that exclusive interview when we come back. Jared kushner in an exclusive interview with cnbc, kushner that was a key player in the talks between the two countries says he does not expect a near term change in Saudi Foreign policy. We just had the first disagreement in 26 years and youre saying we want something on board. Are you saying theyre not significant in terms of moving it forward because theyre the biggest economy as you know in the region. But are you saying that what happened yesterday wasnt a monumental break through in the middle east. My point would be a gcc agreement versus just a uau agreement. Yes an absolute diplomatic victory however not having all of these countries on board does make one wonder if this is going to be something thats feasible over the longterm. Right so first of all i think yesterday was a historic step. This was the First Agreement in the middle east for peace. The last one was 1994 between audi arab i cant and jordan you cant turn a battleship around overnight. President trump has threatened to trigger sanctions on iran after failing to convince the Un Security Council to extend an arms embargo on the country. He would not attend a proposed summit called for by russian president putin to call for confrontation. This after russia and china voted against continuing the ban which is due to expire in october while 11 other members abstained. He called the decision a humiliating defeat for President Trump. Irans rohani also voiced opposition to the deal and warned of possible political repercussions of the agreement. We are warning to uae not to allow israel in this region. They will do so dichtly and be treated differently. So far they carried out this action. Can i just start by asking how Ground Breaking in reality do you believe this deal is. Is this the start of a new process of integrating israel. It is and it is not i hate to create Jared Kushner its not a Peace Agreement because theres never been war however there were in the ue for quite sometime so this is it existing already but the fact that theyre out in the open, its a change. To say that this is going to bring all of the gcc into the fold and Diplomatic Missions against that, i think its working. Why is it happening and why now . Its an interesting thing i assume that its very important. And the question, you know, what has happened in the negotiation . Most of them experience crisis whether its the coronavirus or the corruption so they needed just a little. It also serves the interest of the uae. Probably the supply, sophisticated. So i think diplomatically could give small access. So i think that there were negotiations that one would expect to happen a is it an isolated case but lets not ignore how its going to effect the Palestinian Conflict because this is going because part of the agreement is stopping it and this is an important achievement from the ue in this sense and its then the occupation if you are you right now, you must increasingly feel this is an isolating moment. How do yourespond to that. We saw the response from the palestinian authority. Theyre. Upset. Theyre angry. They feel more and more isolated they feel they have very few friends left in the International Community and so, in this sense, the agreement says the issue of succession and no, theyre suspended and well go back to this later. Its not going to change its not going to change the fact that theres the occupation so i think for the palestinians, theyre more isolated with no political solution and see how theyre going to respond to this. Of course you ask the right question and that is the broader question and ultimately what the saudi position is on that. We see this in the dying embers of trumps first term. We dont know who is going to be the next president of the United States but we know who is running. Will there be momentum, for example, if biden wins and becomes the next president how do you think the election changes the pace of potentially taking forward this agreement . I think theres no reason to follow what they have done and for them to see what is going to be the response within the region and Public Opinion in the middle east and waits for the election and see what will inspire them but lets not forget they initiated 20 years ago the saudi piece initiative and part of it, the important part of it is that theres normal organization of relations with israel unless there is a Peace Agreement with the palestinian. And this is the Saudi Initiative so behind the scenes, the recognition are closer but this is still the audi position and theres no reason. Just let me ask you, the question that you raised in your own notes, under which president do you think the region will see the most peace who is the safest pair of hands . Well, i dont think the world is in a safe pair of hands in any sense of the word of safe. The biden house ticket is not promising but we have to wait and see. One thing, for instance, when it comes to iran theres the Security Council but it goes exactly against what the United States would like to achieve. Were going to say goodbye. Thank you for joining us and giving us the benefit of your analysis still to come, alibaba appears to be in President Trumps cross hairs. The president to divest its u. S. Assets.

A lot of things lets take a look at how european markets are trading were about an hour and a half in the session stocks were negative before the week, they managed to gain about 1. 2 .

They dream about it because if that happens theyll own the United States and china i can tell you specifically will own the United States. Cant let that happen. They have benefitted theyre investing in the network aiming to deliver packages within 24 hours in china and 72 hours internationally. Welcome to the program good to see you. How concerned or otherwise are you about President Trump looking at alibaba. Its a big topic but, actually, we are actively developing our Logistic Network connecting between china and europe as mentioned we are investing and we will connecting to the rest of the nations. We providing a very effective network. From this perspective while i dont think it is being impacted very much from the tension between china and the u. S. So keep completing what were already doing over there and the ecommerce as well as the connecting a warmer welcome in europe th they are in the United States are you concerned at all that that may shift if we continue to see a very hard line taken in beijing toward critics of restricted Market Access in china. Well i dont know if im understanding your question very correctly but i think a basic principle as long as were providing a valuable service both for the chinese, you know, as well as for the european smes so as well as for those governments over there, we dont have too much concern. My question really relates to the willingness of europe to continue to do business with Chinese Companies like yours given the increasing politicization between all at the moment because we are actually providing opportunities. It seems were constructing the concept. Based on, you know, our road map covering the entire territory of europe we are trying to introduce the digital technology, whatever theyre doing over there in china and we want to optimize the existing and connecting from china to europe. How many are actually flowing from china into europe we had very intact alert system. Based on our database. What will be the loading plan to improve the usage. Make sure that each and every password are fully loaded. By doing so were reducing the number of trucks over there. Having said that, were actually reducing the total numbers of the truck on the road in order to reduce it and also by constructing such of the contract we are introducing more volume into europe and by doing so were going to need more, you know, employees. And in other related industries. By doing so also more jobs over there. So in general, were trying to create opportunities from china as well as for europe. And as long as were creating the opportunity and helping the local economy as well as the environment. I dont have too much concern about the status given that youre able to make these adjustments and plan for how many trucks you need on the road or things like that what is the latest what can you tell us around activity it flows in ecommerce in the last weeks what does that mean in the coming weeks and months. The volume or the numbers or just a in terms of volume and business activity. And from 600 to 800,000 to fulfill the requirements of the local consumers. During the impact of the covid19, the demand from the european markets are increasing quite rapidly and we can also see a rapid increase in certain categories such as the while such as the exercising equipment and also like the beauty like its also increasing quite rapidly. It seems people have to stay at home they are paying more attention conditions their own and also their appearance and theyre doing like probably like more social through the internet and they would like them themselves to look beautiful in front of the camera so theyre all increasing quite rapidly. To fulfill the requirements that the european consumers are increasing quite rapidly. Its been a pleasure, david thank you so much for persevering with us. The general manager. Lets move on.
