The week. Joe as we were talking about earlier, it felt like a summer friday, even though it is not summer yet. Not a lot of volatility. Alix one stock that didnt feel like a summer friday was apple. The decline actually taking off dow. Ints off the apple was responsible for half of the decline the Dow Jones Industrial average saw today. We saw a report from japan that apple is going to have production costs of its iphones and sluggish sales. The stock could recover for most of the day. Banks were a very difference story. This is a five day intraday chart. You can see that huge jump up there when earning started to come out and banks really able to hold onto that rally. However that rally builds on cost cuts. How much more just how much more juice can they get out of joe we saw a drifted lower on the twoyear and 10 year. 1. 75 on the 10 year. To be expected on a quiet trend. Scarlet the big mover got crushed, the most among the major currencies. Its as after the central bank stepped up its efforts to weaken the currency. How did it do that he echoed by extending the swap sales. Ity bought u. S. How did do that yet go by extending the swap sales. Do that . By extending the swap sales. We had headlines crossing about data that was bullish since 1999. The yen has strengthened, it has gone from 121 2107 handle last 121 to 107 handle last week. Alix a lot of movement in currencies and commodities. I wanted to highlight oil ahead of the meeting in delhi on sunday. This is the 200 day moving average. Today closed below it. Fell friday before the meeting. Rally but not able to hold onto those gains. Scarlet we had a lot of ecodata out here in the u. S. We want to take a look at the significant point in each of them. Im looking at industrial production, calling it the u. S. Achilles heel. That white line is industrial production. It is 2 lower year on year. Kind of treading water. Line, that utilize ancient rate, that is the lowest level since 2010. Take it all the way back to 2010. Basically not a lot of Capital Investment happening in the economy. Isn manufacturing, that is pretty good. There is kind of a discrepancy between that and the factory orders. Nonetheless, this is where we have seen a lot of the weakness. Scrubbing as the Dollar Strength goes away, what happens to this . Joe it is one regional survey, you cannot put too much stock into it. Thetwo lines here are prices paid index, signs of some , as well as ading headline and yellow index. Back into the positive territory. Maybe there was something seasonal going on. We are starting to see that weaker dollar kicking in. Maybe this is a light at the end of the tunnel. That some of this manufacturing data is going to turn around and that dollar starts having an effect. The problem is the early read is not so great it we had an unexpected drop in consumer sentiment. Chart, the at this headline is at one number, falling below 90. The orange line is current conditions. The blue line is future expectations. Noction anxiety, there is specific question about the elections in the april survey. News about the November Vote made them feel a bit more negative. It is pretty intense. You can see these charts and more on twitter. I want to bring in our guest, Global Energy economist at credit suites. Good to see you. Bank officials will be gathering on sunday in doha. They hope to cobble together an agreement that would limit oil output. Do we actually see an oil freeze . No. Joe thanks for coming in. Guest they have flagged what they are going to do. They are going to play nice in front of the camera, they are going to smile, everybody is there. Can they be more specific about what they mean they are going to do . Who is going to go back down to january production . January to define what production is, and how long would you freeze for . I think the market is looking for answers on. I doubt the market is going to get them. Alix i took a look at when we saw opec and nonopec members get together. Now on both of those occasions, the Production Cut didnt really mean anything. Oil prices kept rallying, despite the fact that this Production Cut didnt mean anything. Does it matter not, does the fact that they are talking about it guest the fact they are talking means they are not going to engage in a price war, means they are not going to engage in a share war. It removes the upside volume risk and protects them on the downside. Press the case that pfizer needs to go to the low 20s or high teens. You just have to have a different risk reward structure. How long do they need to keep this up for . They are almost there. All they really did was make sure people understood there is no more price war and wait for the market. What would constitute a surprise to you in one direction or the other . What is one scenario that can move the market . It shows there is no unity. Less than 5 . Is they hug,side they looked that little bit closer together. Export volumes are going down. It turns out months from now they cooked up a deal behind the scene. If you take a look at long positions or short positions, longs have actually risen. Longs are actually quite extreme. That if they risk dont hug and fight each other. Scarlet look at a selloff could we see that see in that scenario . Guest im no more constructive than the next guy. It is kind of the opposite of what you would normally see. You should have seen prices go up. And then sell it off. Now you would be selling off. What if there is a reservoir of flank that wants to step in but doesnt want to step in ahead of doha. What if you walk in monday morning and sell a lot because not a lot happened. I wouldnt be all that much surprise. And then by tuesday you start the rally all over again. We have seen oil rally a lot since the middle of february. Everything, e. M. Rally, rates in the u. S. Go up. What is calling the shots . Is a commodities . The governor was allout fear. Deflation system risk. Those guys are can chew beating by putting too much oil in the water. They are going to balance the oil market. That they wereon not going to tighten any time. We are going to run the fed hot type of thing. When this stuff correlates is when there is max fear. We are now beginning occasionally to trade on our fundamentals. I think that china may not be falling off a cliff. I think the consumers are doing just fine. Moment, maybe 6, 7, 8 weeks. Coming up, what will brazil shotlike does he have a at success .

I am mark crumpton, alex, scarlet, joe . Alix brazil will have a new president in may. But he wont last very long. That is according to the managing director and head country analysis at eurasia group. He says the new president is impeached, the Vice President will take the reins. There is a 35 chance he doesnt even finish his term. Christopher joins us from d. C. Why do you think the president will make it . There is a 35 chance he wont make it. But our expectation is he probably will. A one inn we give three chance that he doesnt make it is essentially driven by of thesive corruption carwash scandal. We have to remember this is a highly independent investigation , in which the volume of information is being given to cross it that the volume being given to prosecutors is tremendous. As a result, as this Corruption Scandal continues to grow, it has the real potential to continue to gulf the party of the Vice President. And if that happens, then the narrative of the Vice President s government could easily become one in which you are you are essentially exchanging one set of corkscrew for another. , but webet on that attach a probability to that outcome. Joe there is a view that to impeach to have fiscal changes and he to do that for a turnaround. But if there is this risk that there is a massive corruption involving everyone, including a possible replacement, doesnt really matter, is there any reason to be opposite to be optimistic about reform . Guest the good news is the Vice President s staff and ice president is very well aware that if he comes in and assumes the presidency around midmay he has a very narrow honeymoon to work with. And the political strategy of survival is clearly one in which he wants to present his administration as the solution to the economic crisis. Everything you are going to hear from the Vice President early on in his term, were going to have a credible Economic Team. From what we are able to gather, they are probably going to put structural economically arms on the table consideration. The opposition has come to the conclusion that the failure of our government is not in their interest, because that would just be a cycle of deepening economic and political crisis, which would essentially generate an environment of kicking the bums out. I think our point is just that it is a tenuous equilibrium that could be unraveled depending on how these investigations on hold. Scarlet it is pretty one directional. Investors have pushed the brazilian currencies versus the stronger dollar. The orange line is deposit rate futures. It would give centralbank room to cut Interest Rates. People are benefiting on an outcome that are betting on at reading on an outcome that would benefit the economy. Chris lets not forget the levels that where we were two or three months ago. Financial markets were talking about the possibility of restricting his debt, of a potential unhinged fiscal crisis that could generate concerns over the solvency of brazil and debt obligations. The correction we have seen is with the fall of the administration, there may be a different political environment. In fact we are correct and the Vice President does present a constructive reform agenda, it could be whether that is to valley doorknob, the distribution risks remain large. I think at least what we are going to enter is a cycle with a long and painful road or adjustment. Alix it seems brazilians are divided. The government will be better, but 37 say it will be the same. We did an unofficial hole. Joe unofficial poll on twitter. Joe here he go. Alix we can go to the computer and take a look at joes twitter feed. Joe we asked if people in brazil have if brazil has more of a market rally. There is a clear divide here. Just an em story we have seen in brazil . Chris the external conditions will be important in brazil. Theink in the near term investors are going to be focused on what is the Economic Team that the Vice President is going to put forth . What is the what is the agenda he is going to advocate . I think the end result of that question will be positive. Marcus will very much like what they are going to hear. I think theres potentially more room to the question comes after that kind of announcement. Hes going to fall short. I dont think hes going to deliver structural economically arms. But he will make some progress toward. Approve he will microeconomic reef arms. A new telecommunications law, those kinds of things we see on the upside. Coming up we have the three charts you cannot miss. Scarlet we are looking at china gdp and the economy overall. The question is how fast is the economy growing . Here is one way of looking at it. The orange line is the government report. The last one was 6. 7 . The blue line is what the government is targeting. The white line is the proprietary gp tracker. We get a little bit of a lift up above what the government had targeted. We are also above the official read as well. What is distinctive about our index is all the major components of demand, such as consumption and overseas sales. You can trust hours. This is my favorite china indicator in the world. This is electricity usage. Basically if you use more electricity you either use that you either own a house or an apartment. Line showss purple electricity rose by an average 2 by the last three months. Where did that demand come from . What that means is chinas grand plans from an industrial economy into consumer driven economy, actually working a sans the uses. Joe scarlet pointed out this is one of the best months in a long time. The raw data is really destroying the electricity data, but here is the bad news. This chart comes from bloomberg intelligence. The amount of new debt that was and this chart from bloomberg intelligence, the white line is corporate and household that a percentage of gdp. The economy is growing. Maybe it is a soft landing. Those concerned there is this unsustainable debt bubble and ultimately what china needs is deleveraging the last month shows there still piling on the debt. Alix you will see that go up. Bank earnings have shown that cost cuts are on the rise. We have a push through profitability. That is next. Marketing all signs are pointing to the contested convention.

Scarlet the First QuarterEarnings Report is proof that trading remains a problem child. Revenue isnt coming of the way it used to, especially when you look at fixed income currencies and commodities. How much smaller will these capital businesses get . Brad when you look back you had an industry that was much larger than the relative banking business. The issue we had is the trading has not been able to beat the cost of capital. You look at these banks and how many years are years out our we area are we .

As you shrink a fixed income business, the person that is going to have to pay for it is larry think, it is larry fink. If you want liquidity, you are going to need to pay for it. The model of risk taking and making money from risktaking is gone. You heard Goldman Sachs was getting more aggressive about cutting things like spending and cutting peoples ability to spend on entertainment and airfare. Can these cuts really move the needle or are they or are the only cuts that matter brad it is not 50 anymore but compensation is by far the largest expense. The way to cut compensation is really to cut the number of managing directors. The juniorutting people at the bottom. It is really managing director compensation. Deferred compensation can move the needle. As a cfo you have to do what they are doing. As a cfo you have to say every penny has to be at accounted for. Be accounted for.
