george: you bring up a great point, tom. fixed income has been rattled this year, a seismic shock has hit the system and it is both financial and political. the whole morning session has been all about politics. when we look at capital markets, you have seen roughly a trillion dollar loss working its way through the system. that is a marked to market loss and the numbers are bigger than that when you inc. about the other parts of the economy connected -- when you think about other parts of the economy connected. credit conditions is a real challenge for bond investors one credit conditions start to tighten, risk premiums go up, default start to rise. the challenge is for the fixed income investors are faced with about certainty of payment. we have two challenges right now, one is through the marked to market loss working its way through the system and the second is the fed and the fed is in the position to start raising rates. we have two major headwinds that are facing fixed income investors. what has happened over the last

tom: tom is -- jonathan: tom is looking for the outlook. are we going to see inflation forecasts up and forecasts for gdp down? is that what we see in 40 minutes? nick: i think very much so. our own forecasts, we are looking at 3.8% growth in the euro zone this year, but our system for reviewing is pretty much everyone else's, and that goes down by 0.5% to 0.75% based on everything that is going on. not only have you had those unhelpful base effect from early last year, now you have the surge in oil prices as well, so a sharply higher inflation forecast. jonathan: fantastic. nick bennenbroek there of wells fargo. i think this could be interesting. when they dropped the pledge to end the asset purchase program shortly before an interest rate hike, does that mean they can hike rates earlier or later? i wonder how they use that little clause as an opportunity may be to emphasize that they will be data-dependent, and we just don't know, but the goal is to get out of asset purchases like you three. tom: this is not the gnomes of zurich, but i wo

tom: good morning, everyone. on radio, television, we welcome all of you across the station and worldwide to an extraordinary week. the news flow in the last five minutes, extraordinary. i want to go to this, and about 2.5 hours, nightfall in ukraine. jonathan: that convoy heading toward the ukrainian capital gets your attention. they have stepped up the invasion in the last 24 hours, the attack has intensified. according to interfax, the russian operation will continue. tom: it is across all of eastern ukraine. we will not go into the details right now, but the protests continue, including at the un's human rights commission, they stand up and walk out on a remote lavrov. jonathan: the foreign ministers say they have asked china to put pressure on russia to end the war. tom: let's fold that into the markets. italian inflation, moments ago, german inflation, five point 5% versus 5.4. this is an inflation for war. jonathan: yes, equities are lower by .8%. crude is higher through 100. the move you are seeing in ita

tom: that's what we like. liz ann: and the value factors have been pretty consistent leadership factors, even in sectors like tech and consumer discretionary, communications services. you can screen for the characteristic of value without limiting yourself to the sectors or areas that just happen to live in the value indexes. so i think quality value is where investors want to focus and avoiding areas like high volatility, week balance sheets, non-profitability. i think that low-quality trade is largely in the rearview mirror. lisa: we have seen a lot of outflows from equity funds, from riskier debt funds, but how concerned are you that as plants open up their statements, they will withdraw some more and accelerate some of the losses? liz ann: it depends on what type of investor you are. if you are an active investor, doing it on your own or you employ active managers, there's been a more level playing field this year. there's more dispersion, ostensibly more ability for active to outperform passive. so i thin

tom: in the data, i don't know where to begin. obviously the most enthusiastic is the nasdaq, up 1%. to me, it is the retreat of the swiss franc, rounded up, really an indication of the relief right now. jonathan: on wti, down. down on brent, too. tom: thanks to our team for adapting and adjusting. we know adapt with david malpass, president of the world bank. i know he's laughing at me because he knows i really what to quiz him on yen valuation nine, x, but that would be appropriate this morning with the president of the world bank. want to cut to the chase. if you shifted the world bank to aid, how would you assist in that process? diana: is a worldwide -- david: it is a worldwide process, but markets are really adjusting some. the world bank puts a lot of money into food and aid, one of the crises facing poor people. we do $17 billion per year in various forms of food support. one of the critical things for people in poor countries is that they have targeted support, meaning not subsidies that support everyone, or can you targe

tom: look at the dot plot. jonathan: you want it gone. tom: it is not going to work. jonathan: you think they want to point out a forecast today? tom: i defer to mr. mckee on this. i think many people, solid phd's at the fed would kill to walk away from the silliness of the dot plot. jonathan: special coverage of the fed on tv and radio coming up later. team coverage starts right now with annmarie hordern in washington. what are we looking for? anne-marie: it is going to be incredibly emotional, president zelensky hoping to move congress. when he spoke to european leaders, it was so emotional, his translator choked up. in canada he was trying to implore canadians, lawmakers to really feel and understand what is going on, on the ground in kyiv. he said could you imagine bombs going over vancouver? the issue is the administration does not want to do a no-fly zone. potentially he can move some lawmakers to put pressure on the administration to get those polish jets over the border. tom: there are headlines coming in the atlantic and the united states and united kingdom b

tom: i didn't know that. it begins this morning and we will have to see and talk about that with our guests coming up. an important interview is a summary of where you are and where we are. we have the head of research that edf with a wonderful focus on commodities. i want to go to an emotion you have in your note which is this gyration. it's the field, we will feel less rich. what is the out come of feeling less rich? >> [indiscernible] tom: we've got some audio problems here and we will work on that. i was looking at her work and not only the feeling of less rich and what it means but she focused on the shocking amount of sunflower oil coming from ukraine and russia. sunflower oil has moved out to 15-15 over eight double. -- over a double. i don't know if you use it but it's awfully important. jonathan: it accounts for about 80% of global exports and they come from russia and ukraine. the energy store is another point. gas is more and more expensive over the last few months. let's try hooking up with our gu

tom: dovetail your work with mark mccormack. he's been wonderful on strong dollar, resilient dollar, and the events have shown him to be very correct. with euro chris -- we have euro swissie at the precipice. link those worlds together. priya: i think what the market is worried about is that the fed has to respond to inflation. as much as they want to be humble and nimble, it's inflation -- if inflation is that hi, do they raise rates? that is going to tighten financial conditions. plus, we are living through a war that also tightens financial conditions, and the effect of financial conditions on the economy is very hard to measure. what the market is saying is that the fed may overdo it, but i would caution the market a bit on that. i think we are absolutely going to get a few hikes, but can the fed pause once they get rates to 1%, 1.5%, and reassess and really see if the economy is responding to financial conditions? they might be tolerant of higher inflation as long as it is decelerating. you talk about the jobs report not be
