Membership in the eu. Rival camps are running neck and neck. Israeli Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu and u. S. Secretary of state john kerry are scheduled to meet in rome on sunday. From bloomberg world headquarters, im mark crumpton. Westmberg Max Bloomberg is quote is next. Im emily chang and this is bloomberg west. We will examine the potential impacts of a brexit at tech industry. And must lays defense having a hard time selling his 3 billion proposal for a teslasolar city merger of we will break down why some investors are skeptical. The Global Entrepreneur conference kicks off. With john interviews kerry and reid hoffman, we will hear from steve case. But first to our lead. Britain is on the brink of a monumental decision about whether to remain in the European Union. Campaigners issued 11 hour appeals in the socalled Brexit Debate with the mayor of london calling up the fight of our lives. His predecessor calls it the last chance to take back control. Polls waver between a dead heat and narrow lead for each camp. Joining us to put it all into perspective is alex webb who recently relocated here from england. It iseporter back incredible to even believe we are at this point. What does a brexit mean . There are so many huge things that could happen here. Businesses and Venture Capital in london, its going to be much harder for british businesses to grow and trade inside london. If you think about the broader implications, that could set off a chain reaction. The rest of the European Union space beginning to dislocate and everything we have fought so hard for over the last 50 years could quickly unravel emily i know that its difficult to put a number on coming people want to leave, but there are a lot of people who want to leave. What are the benefits of that . Guest the argument made is the famous red tape argument. Namely that theres a lot of legislation coming out of europe and a largely to do with finicky things like the size of the lightbulb or health and safety regulations and that makes it harder for Small Businesses to grow because they have a lot of regulatory hoops. Thats the argument and if its correct, it could have implications for startups and tech businesses but britain would have to come up with its own legislation. Emily there would be huge implications for the Global Markets and confidence and investing in europe. A big sector in the u. K. How would that impact that sector . Can london remain a superpower in terms of the Financial Sector or is everything going to move over to london does a few things really well. We saw the acquisition of magic pony for 150 million and we know that there are Great Companies that will be coming up but the question is will they stay in london or will they move somewhere else where they have access to a larger market . Emily a big issue is immigration and it echoes some of around immigration here in the united dates. Talk about the potential impact. N immigration in the u. K. , immigrants can move even more freely between borders and it has impact on skilled workers and talent. Not classifyd myself as a skilled worker but i have been a beneficiary of this. I lived in germany without a visa or anything. It allows perhaps lower cost labor to be shipped in from Eastern Europe and undercut labor costs. But if you think about the golden triangle, oxford, cambridge, london, where there is a lot of tech growth. They had a hugely diverse workforce. A lot of these people are coming from the eu and it makes it hard to bring this talent in. With my Previous Company headquartered in london, we have a huge number of people from all over london in our engineering team. The fact that we can move quickly and easily as always hugely attractive. It as i benefited from well when they had be highly gild Migrant Program and i was able to move there for my job. With this impact your decision to back u. K. Startups . Guest one reason i always liked investing in u. K. Companies as they have an International View from day one. They can trade in european borders and look to the u. S. And take advantage of that special relationship made appealing for top one of the big issues the leave campaign is trading on is that the u. K. Will continue to have a great relationship with the u. S. Something obama spoke about yesterday was that may not be the case. Would it be something i would do in the future . It definitely makes it harder. Emily could the vote drag out in any way . Guest there are places where some of the lost can chew and sees take longer to report their results. In someoften a race positions to report first. Polls tend to indicate that it is very close but there is always this untenantable element of people who are undecided and what they do when they are alone with the Balance Sheet is hard to tell for that hard to tell. Following thisbe all day tomorrow on bloomberg television. We continue our countdown to the brexit but first, a roundup of where u. S. Tech companies have cited in the debate. Microsoft is one of the Largest Companies to come out against the referendum. Microsoft says the u. K. Being part of the eu is one of several important criteria to make it one of the most and orton and attractive places for the arrangements we have made. Emily the leaders of cisco, ge, and others in the Business Community voiced support of a stay vote in the referendum. Still to come, brexit fever and the price of the coin. We will head to taipei for an explanation this hour. More than a are billion cars on the road worldwide today and only. 1 of them have a plug. Opec contends even in the year 2040, electric nichols will make up just 1 . But dont be so sure. Back electric vehicles will make up just 1 . We have the math on when oil markets might be headed for the big crash. The world is running out of oil. The idealhat was behind the peak oil hypothesis that dominated economic thinking for decades. But it turns out that with fracking, deepwater drilling and other things there is much more oil than we thought. The Peak Oil Theory isnt happening. But what about a sensitive running out of oil, we just stopped buying the stuff mark there buying the stuff . There one really and gas guzzling cars on the road today and only. 1 has a plug. Opec intends that even in 2040, electric vehicles will make up just 1 . But dont be so sure. Consider the s curve. Its used to describe new Tech Knowledge he like color tvs. Growth starts slow and when the product will he starts to connect come we have lift off. Eventually the market gets saturated at the top. Foricting and as curve electric cars is extremely difficult because we are making assumptions about demand for a type of vehicle that doesnt even exist yet. Cars with anil cars with a range of 200 or 300 miles. In the next few years, tesla, nissan and chevy plan on selling longrange electric cars in the 30,000 range. And other companies are investing on dozens of new models due out in the next four years. By 2020, some of these will be faster, safer, cheaper and then there gasoline counterparts. To start and oil crash, you dont need to replace all the cars on the road. You just need to reduce demand enough to cause a glut of unwanted oil. Consider the oil crash that started in 2014 caused by too much supply, when producers started pumping out a next her 2 Million Barrels a day. When electric vehicles are able to displace that much on the demand side, it could also cause a crash. When my that happen . Tesla is building factories to go from 50,000 sales to 500000 and 2020. Lets assume tesla can meet its forecast and assume other carmakers retained their market share for plugins. If each vehicle displaces 15 barrels a year, heres the impact. At this rate, we get the benchmark of 2 Million Barrels of oil a day displaced as early as 2023. That is an oil crisis and the thing is, its just the beginning. Its not at all unreasonable to assume that by 2040 nearly half the world is new cars will have a plug. You are skeptical. The price of electric cars still needs to come down and there are not enough fast charging stations for longdistance trips. Many drivers are still going to choose gasoline and diesel, but imagine a future where the rumbling streets of new york and new delhi all violent with electric engines. What if Global Demand for oil service to fall, at first by a trickle and then by a rush. Invested in oil will be lost while trillions in new energy will be one. The power of nations will be shuffled. Thats the promise of the new peak oil and it may be coming sooner than you think. Emily that was bloombergs tom randall reporting. Tesla shares closing more than 10 lower a day after elon musk forward a land to live the number one u. S. Rooftop solar provider by worth 3 billion. Elon musk said the deal was a nobrainer but investors are skeptical. Does it make strategic sense for tesla to buy solar city and what does it mean for the wider solar power sector . Im joined by cory johnson and liam jenning. You open your piece on the post merger with elon musk talking about this being part of the nonweird future, yet you believe its weird and he is letting on. Explain. very heavy on longterm vision. Renewable energy where tesla was not only going to sell you your nice electric vehicle but solar panels to go on your house and so forth. What wasnt there was a clear explanation of what the benefits of this deal would be to investors and what the savings would be. Why this idea that a onestop shop is needed in renewable energy. That was not clear either. Emily what are investors saying now that they had 24 hours to digest this . Cory it was interesting to watch the trade in solar city. First, it never reached in your near the bid price. Shares fell off a little bit today as people start to realize this deal might not even happen because it is so illogical. I was shocked to see so many analysts agree with me that this does seem illogical. Is af the concerns here lot of them lowering their numbers and a couple of cells out there, but theres a suggestion that solar city has really serious as a heart attack concerns about its ability to raise cash over the course of this year maybe merging it with a Balance Sheet might make tesla able to more easily borrow than solar city can. But maybe that is trouble because solar city is seen as being so toxic that could hurt tesla possibility tomorrow. Tesla does not have the money to hold the factories and cars it set out to build. That makes it even more difficult for tesla to achieve its goals which one analyst called unachievable, and that was a list analysts. Best elon musk is a guy known for taking on impossible tasks. That may not be enough to can and some that not a good idea, now . Hy both if you go back, stocks were flying high and both companies were burning cash and shareholders did not seem to s case, theesla stock is still rated high. Solar city can say the same. Strategy,ivid on its it has been dropping quite dramatically and it doesnt look like they can raise the capital they need. In pains tocall was point out that everything was fine at solar city and they could raise money if they needed to. The question you have to ask lowself is this is a very priced bid compared to solar citys history. If they really were fine, why would they go for this deal . It will be telling if they recommend this deal because it would be a sign they have lost faith in their own future. The Free Cash Flow burns are so disconcerting because it just this company wouldnt even survive or would at least have a lot of risk if the markets are not open for them. Emily thank you both. Up, the ipo market gets a test after a very slow start to 2016. Andill break down twee leo why the company is choosing to go public now. Emily Twilio Twilio the Communications Software provider, is pricing of ipo as investors it on this guidelines in an uncertain market. The announcement makes the San Franciscobased company just the Sixth Company to go public in 2016 compared to the 24 companies that went public i this time last year. Does it signals the end of the ipo drought . Joining us from the university of florida is jay ritter. What a day to go public, the same day as the referendum and u. K. That could have wideranging implications on the market. What do you make of the decision to do this now . I think they are counting on the fact that the tech market and being based in San Francisco is going to be shrugging off what happens in london. This is the first Silicon Valley backed ipo for the year. What does it mean for the Broader Market . Guest i dont think it means a lot. There have been a limited number of tech ipos but other Industries Including biotechnology have had a very limited number of ipos this year. Has not been profitable in the eight years of has an existence. Is that a red flag and mark guest yes. But the vast majority of tech stock ipos have not been profitable when they have gone public. Investors have cared much more about growth and rationally so if theyt of companies wanted to focus on shortterm profitability could become profitable by Cutting Research and Development Expense and not hiring as many people to cut their short term costs. Investors would much rather have a company with utter growth aspects. Is heavilyio dependent on facebooks whatsapp. How big a risk factor is that . It is a risk factor when youve got one big client, however facebook, whatsapp is a really important him a big player, so it is not rising that its having such a big market share. If this goes well, would that open the door for other Silicon Valley companies were not . Think theres going to be a big effect one way or the other. What is unique about twilio is that it is a b2b company, unlike facebook or uber, consumers are not the customers and the vast of b2b successful startups for the last 15 years have not gone public and remained as an independent company. Instead, they have sold out in trade sales and rather than growing organically, they become part of a Larger Organization and i dont think that longterm pattern is going to be changing top emily what your expectation for the number of ipos that will happen this year and will we see a big pickup next year . Guest the first part of this year has definitely been slow and i think there will be higher activity for the rest of the year unless the stock market takes a dive. Are gettingthink we to really high levels of ipo activity. Biotech prices are not as high as they were a year ago and biotech ipos have been a large fraction of the ipo market. I think we will probably come in Something Like 2010 or 2012 with less than 100 ipos for the year. Ritter,rofessor jay thank you very much. We will be following the ipo.
