As you look at the brett of the decline, it is broad. All industry groups, all subgroups are trading lower. Energy is leading the plunge. Along with technology, the nasdaq is showing the upside when we are moving up. A big cap on technology after a strong 2015. Financials were also lower despite estimated numbers from citigroup and wells fargo. Financials are also lower. Energy is doing the worst. Oil prices are selling off. Belowe crude oil trading 30 per barrel. Since late lowest 2003. I want to check on the fix. Vix. We are seeing increased by 16 . This is one of the hallmarks of the selloff. Gotten thatin high.

Global news 24 hours a day, powered by our 2500 journalists and 150 news bureaus around the world. Betty thank you. Lets get to the markets. Crude is tanking again. Hitting a 12 year low. The dow is down 400 points. It might be time to make a new call. Goldman sachs said they are going for a market rally. Jeff curry is saying the key thing for 2016 will be fundamental adjustments that can reballot markets to create the birth of a bull market that we still see happening in late 2016. For a closer look at where oil is heading, i want to bring in a critic of oil predictions, daniel yergin. Of thed the chairman ihs research. Join me from washington. Are you a critic . Think it is difficult because people are trying to say what will happen to the chinese economy . How much oil will be ran put into the market . How much oil put into the market . Right now, you know, it is striking. We are in an oil price range. That is where the great takeoff of china and the emerging markets were heard we back to 2003. Betty we are. We are wondering will we experience 2003 all over again . Daniel we are close to it in terms of oil price. People know, they follow the thist they knew that friday the ran would get irna would get certified. They are going in the context of this Global Market panic. Betty it does seem like a panic. Have known about this is rainy and news for quite some time. I understand it is becoming a reality. Daniel it has been clear that this is going to happen. The irani and government wanted it to get done more quickly. The United States government wants them to do well. The United States was cooperating. It does mean that it is coming into a market of greater weakness. It was thinking it would happen in march or april. Betty if i can read into what you are saying, you think what we are seeing is prompted by irani and supply. Daniel yes, and china. There are two debates going on. Number one is that they are making policy mistakes. The other is that this is signaling fundamental weakness. The markets are voting that this is fundamental weakness. You have a weaker demand outlook. Although, were looking at 1. 2 Million Barrels a day in demand growth. 2014, butgher than lower than 2015. It is the downside for china. By the way, is the u. S. In vulnerable to this . Betty do you think we are vulnerable to this . Daniel yes. The shocks contagion that come from problems of debts and emerging markets, a weikel a weaker Global Market and trade. There is one other factor which is the strength of the dollar. You get to the inverse movement between the dollar and oil prices. Particularly, at times of change. That is another factor hammering oil prices. Betty there are a lot of factors. Thent to go further into Goldman Sachs report. It is getting a lot of headlines. Daniel a while ago they said 20. It is interesting. Betty i agree. It sounds like they are walking backwards on that. On that headline that came out saying now, they are that is an outline number. We are not saying it will go down to 20. Daniel the thing about the witness of oil prices is that it weighs on the overall stock market. We have had the view for some time that we will see a rebalancing in the oil market in the second half of the year, because basically, not just the United States but around the world Oil Companies are slamming the brakes in terms of investment. And your notws having new supplies come in, then you get a market that does not rebalance in 2016 or 2017. Betty it does not . Daniel it does rebalance, because it is cutting projects. Theyre being postponed, delayed or canceled. Betty that is what Goldman Sachs is saying. Once you hit oil and the 20 range you will see a rebound. They believe the shale boom in the United States will reverse. Quality demand continues to stay at these levels, that is where youll see prices rebound. They are hoping it will hit 40. Daniel actually, at this point we are using a price for the average of the year in the midrange 40s. Re are certainties uncertainties about china. One thing we are watching is what happens with u. S. Production. United states production is down half a Million Barrels per day. We certainly think it will progress over the next several months. Producers, their access to money, simply the pain they are under we will see the United States down about one Million Barrels per day. That might happen around the second quarter. Betty we keep piling up the oil. We are at the top of storage tanks. Daniel yes. You point to something that is a critical factor. If we go back to 1998 people are saying 10 per barrel. That is when you run out of storage. We have been watching our numbers carefully. We followed shipping numbers. We do not think we are at the point of running out of storage. If we did, then you would see much lower prices. When you do not have any place to put the oil, it is cheap very cheap. It has somewhere to go. How far off would you give us before we do fill them up . Is that at this point we do not believe we will run out of storage. Aerial area does not hold true. If the World Economy was much weaker, and demand was much weaker, then problems are greater. The other thing that complicates the picture, in terms of geopolitics in the gulf region, between saudi arabia and you ran ran, there is such an intense rivalry. These people are in a proxy war. They see very little side that gulf countries want to sit down and make room for irna, right now. Betty we also have the peripheral Oil Producers in europe. They are getting caught in the instance of middle of this. Norway and their economy. We look at how quickly and methodically their currency has been tracking. It has basically been in line with where crude has gone. As the price of oil has gone norwegian currency. An official came out and said we are in a crisis mode. Our currency is devalued. We are in an emergency situation. How does that play out . Daniel that is not only in norway, canada, australia, the emerging markets, they are in a currency crisis. This is a real shock for their economy. That is a reverberation running through the whole World Economy. That werussia saying were charging 82 per barrel. Now, maybe they should plan on 30 per barrel. Half of their budget comes from oil. There are a lot of countries that will be hit. I think that we will probably ounter surprises somewhere, it often happens, you will see it were something comes from left peeled field where people do not expected. You have to keep your radar up. Betty you have to be prepared. Before i go, you mentioned the gulf countries. Nothing happens that saudi arabia. I am curious with the saudi arabia and ipo, you think given the timing, is this saudi arabia signaling to the world that oil prices will be look lower . Daniel i think it has to do with the drive of the crowned prince wanting to reform the economy. They have looked at other economies in seeing that this is a way to raise money. I think there is a shift in view , which was originally that we need to save oil for our grandchildren. The view now is that maybe we need to modify faster. Betty hedge our bets a little bit. Thank you for joining me. Dan yergin. Lets also check in on the equity market. In particular, the dow which has just plunged 400 points. Now, coming off a low. We are hitting a low of our session. The worst plunge since september of last year. Betty good morning and welcome to bloomberg markets. The markets we are closely following. I want to go to the market desk with julie hyman. Julie energy, i want to get to that. I want to start broad and look at what we are seeing. Forave not hit these lows an early session. We have a long holiday weekend. Short or longw investors want to beef. We are seeing oil selloff. Thiscontinued selloff morning. It is below 30 per barrel. It is down 5. 5 . We see money flowing into treasuries. That is characteristic of the risk option. Below 2 . Touch now, it is below 2 . Ares a very big move we seeing in the 10 year. In terms of individual stocks, the oil majors are selling off, not the most, but we are seeking death scene big declines. The energy group is the worst performer. But we are seeing big declines. The energy group is the worst performer. The strategy to migrate away from chips for pcs and server processors, that has had some success. Now, the companies are talking about slowing growth. Apple is declining, microsoft is declining. Citigroup and wells fargo both came out with earnings that beat estimates. Revenue was higher for wells fargo. Citigroup saw increases with revenue with asset sales. Those shares are lower as well. Jpmorgan is getting tracked down. So, the earnings season, that for some investors they were looking to come in and help matters. I believe adam parker from Morgan Stanley said earnings season should help. It is still on the very beginning. It is not helping. Betty not yet. It is overshadowed by the selling. Julie hyman at the market desk. Is a big day for banks. The second worst decline are on the s p. We will break down those numbers from wells fargo and citigroup. , shares ofou can see citigroup and wells fargo are off and early trade after they beat earnings estimates this morning. Onigroup revenue was higher the scale of more unwanted assets. However, wells fargo jumped ahead of citigroup to make it to the nations Third Largest lender by assets value. Citigroup continues to split. To break this down, i want to bring in christine harper. Our executive editor for finance. It is hard to read much into this, given the broadbased selloff. You know, were investors cheered by what they saw . Christine what i would read is that citigroup was hurt more than wells fargo. Relative play a that people are not happy with citigroup. We have a story out saying that people view the revenue as soft. They like that it is up, but when you dig down, some of it is just from selling assets. That is not really moving forward in a way that they will be able to repeat. Another thing, to the point of how city has fallen behind wells fargo. Citigroup is shrinking in business. The valuation that the market is putting on what they are doing is very low. They are trading at a faction fraction of book value. Investors are looking at what they have and saying it is not worth what they say it is worth. Wells fargo is growing. Even though wells fargo is facing a challenging environment , they are growing in revenue. They are able to keep cost. They have a future that is more positive from investors point of view. With citigroup it is shrinking. For a long time, people have been helping that they could get expensive under control expenses under control. Betty do they need to do more with expenses . Christine i think the general view is that Everybody Needs to be better with expenses. There have been a number of announcements at job cuts at Morgan Stanley. Obviously other banks have been aggressive. We have reported that Goldman Sachs, which has been a leader in trading, is looking at cutting off their trading business. More and more likely, i will say and groups like citigroup, others that have a lower evaluation as opposed to wells fargo, they are under more pressure to show their investors that they are getting a grip on expenses. They will improve their return on equity. That is more for citigroup than others. Betty you mentioned wells fargo has a better outlook, is that part of the fed rate hike cycle . Christine partially. They are also very u. S. Centric, they have a very contained business. They are a commercial lender. It is not a big investment banker. Things like wild swing in the market swings in the market do not impact them as much. So, wells fargo is benefiting in some sense from the fact that they are more streamlined. Citigroup is struggling from the fact that they do semithings. You. thank christine harper, our executive editor of finance. As we go to the break, we will look at how treasuries are trading. They are the safe haven at this point. The yield is coming down for the 10 year. Betty live from from bloomberg World Headquarters in new york, good morning. I am betty liu. Were watching the markets carefully. Hovering around lows of the session the dow is down 350 points. If we can stay on this track of decline, we will see the biggest loss in the dow since february of 2009. Lets turn to oil, because that is what is driving the losses. You can see nymex crude below the 30 per barrel level. You heard dan yergin say that is partially due to iranian oil supply hitting the market. Crude is trying to post is going to post the Third Straight month of decline. We putting this in context. It does not look good. Lets get first word news with vonnie quinn. Vonnie thank you.

On the campaign trail, candidates have been sounding the alarm warning of a trade war between china and the u. S. Deallandmark trade congress is now considering. David set down with the trade representative and ask them what it means for trade relations. David what is the relationship like today . When youre talking to your counterpart in china . We have a good dialogue. They raised concerns about u. S. Policy, we raise concerns about china. Right now, there is an amount of overcapacity in steel and aluminum, largely coming from china. It is having a serious impact. Over a year ago, we launched a dialogue about how to deal capacity. Because, they are doing with the problem from their own perspective. We will press them to make those kinds of changes to move towards more market determined policies. To move towards domestic growth, rather than export led growth. These are all policies that the trade department is engaged with china to help encourage them to reform their economy. We think it will create more balanced growth for them. And a better relationship for us. David the first blueprints of the deal predate you. China is not in disagreement. Is that a point to you that they were not brought in in the beginning . Mike there were 12 countries willing and eager to sign up to a high level agreement. They have strong intellectual property rights. It puts disciplines on state enterprise for the first time in any agreement. It to make sure the internet stays open and free. It wants to make sure the internet stays open and free. They will sign up for that. Countries will do that as well. We do not want to compromise our standards. The goal was to create rules of the road for the region. They will reflect our interests and values. David is there a possibility china could join the agreement . It is intended to be an open platform that companies can join. If they are willing to meet the standards, and all full of us agree, and we go through the approval process our focus with china right now is
