Trump says U.S.-China trade talks ‘going well’ but wants to see Xi

Watchdog fight erupts in Danske Bank scandal blame game

OPEC oil output drops in January on Saudi cut, outages and sanctions

UBS bets on investment banking, wealth tie-up in bid for growth

One Bank’s Shocking Fed Reaction: “Epic Market Volatility Is Assured”

Submitted by Rabobank strategist Michael Every

The ECB: a legend in its own mind. Draghi recently emphasized that although GDP growth was not looking good now, better times lay ahead – because Chinese fiscal and monetary stimulus will kick in. I know the neoliberal Davos consensus Draghi champions is a big fan of outsourcing, but isn’t it taking things a bit too far when the central bank of the world’s richest region leaves much-needed stimulus to a far poorer country with a political-economy anathema to it? If Brexit goes badly wrong will Draghi be on the phone to the PBOC straight away in that case?

Yesterday the ECB also proudly Tweeted its own economic research showing **drumroll** that QE helped reduce inequality.

ECB asset purchases have reduced inequality in the eurozone, our research shows. They have especially benefited low-income households, which suffer the most from unemployment. Full Research Bulletin here https://t.co/MlMQO2BXxK pic.twitter.com/4DtpcOsqms

— European Central Bank (@ecb) January 30, 2019

That’s right, reduce. The central claims are: (1) by lowering unemployment at the lower end of the socio-economic ladder, QE put money in people’s pockets; (2) higher stock prices didn’t have any influence on wealth inequality; and (3) higher house prices helped to reduce inequality.

I can hear the stunned silence. That’s wonderfully convenient for the ECB, and for Davos Man, as the 2019 WEF started by warning of the need to look after “the losers of globalisation” and to refocus its mora …

Trump Says “No Final Deal” On Trade Until He Meets Xi

As talks in Washington between a delegation of senior US officials led by Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer and a delegation from Beijing led by Vice Premier Liu He enter their second day, President Trump conclusively ruled out the possibility that a deal could be announced by the end of the week in a series of early morning tweets.

The president said that while the negotiations are going “very well,” he said that “no final deal will be made until my friend President Xi, and I, meet in the near future to discuss and agree on some of the long standing and more difficult points.”

China’s top trade negotiators are in the U.S. meeting with our representatives. Meetings are going well with good intent and spirit on both sides. China does not want an increase in Tariffs and feels they will do much better if they make a deal. They are correct. I will be……

Guaido Claims “Clandestine Meetings” With Venezuela’s Military In NYT Op-Ed

In a bid to solidify his legitimacy, Venezuela’s self-proclaimed interim president Juan Guaido has claimed in a New York Times Op-Ed that he and his advisers have “had clandestine meetings with members of the armed forces and the security forces” in Venezuela, offering amnesty to all who are not found guilty of crimes against humanity.

Guaido declared himself interim president of Venezuela last week. Backed by the United States and most of Latin America – and with US-based Venezuelan bank accounts turned over to him, the 35-year-old opposition leader writes that “Maduro no longer has support of the people,” and that his “time is running out.”

“In order to manage his exit with the minimum of bloodshed, all of Venezuela must unite in pushing for a definitive end to his regime.”

Read Guaido’s Op-Ed below:

Juan Guaidó Via the New York Times

Juan Guaidó: Venezuelans, Strength Is in Unity

To end the Maduro regime with the minimum of bloodshed, we need the support of pro-democratic governments, institutions and individuals the world over.

CARACAS, Venezuela — On Jan. 23, 61 years after the vicious dictator Marcos Pérez Jiménez was ousted, Venezuelans once again gathered for a day of democratic celebration.

Pérez Jiménez was fraudulently elected by a Constituent Assembly in 1953. His term of office was scheduled to expire in 1958. But rather than calling for free and transparent presidential elections, he was undemocratically re-elected after holding a plebiscite on his administration late in 1957. Following widespread protests and a rupture within the military establishment, the dictator left the country and Venezuela regained its freedom on J …

Global Stock Rally Fades After Italy Slides Into Recession

The total capitulation by the Federal Reserve which confirmed all it cares about is the stock market, propelled world stocks to their best January on record on Thursday, although in a deja vu of last January, when stocks similarly soared only to flop spectacularly, traders were trying not to get too carried away.

An overnight rally in global markets, helped by a dovish capitulation by the Fed which sent the S&P 1.55% higher on Wednesday as well as strong results from Facebook that sent the stock 11% higher premarket, faded overnight following another contractionary print in China’s official manufacturing PMI (49.5, up from 49.4 in Dec and above the 49.3 estimate), and the latest GDP print out of Italy which confirmed that the country had entered a recession for the first time in 6 years.
