so our $50.00 than anybody in us who makes $15000.00 a year. the system is badly broken and we have to fix it on, especially when you're talking about those $700.00 selected billionaires. i mean they're in that club for a reason because they had figured out what the average american wasn't able to figure out now. and jeffrey, of course, who will surely hear a big push back from the sort of anti tax crowd. but why vote of that for just 700 hyper rich americans was the logic there? it's, it's mouth pencil and he's in as far as i can tell, and i did some research on this today, this, this proposals without precedent. we're really talking about attacks on, on valuation of the assets that are being held there. they're not even income being earned, but rather just the market valuation of existing a property which is banana republic style of taxation. and once you, once you do that, it's not going be just about billionaires. look about about everybody, everybody, but it shouldn't even be about billionaires. i mean, and in portfolios the, the, the valu

get your phone with us. unless you mean majority to thought it was late, but a will. it litigation. lush williston, holding still for a welcome back. there was a brief spike in the crypto currency world as big coin cash jumped nearly 5 percent on friday after a press release. announced that grocery chain kroger would begin accepting the crypto. the only problem is that print press release was a fake. the fraudulent announcement which was issued on p r. news wire and appeared on kroger's website claim, the grocer retailer would be accepting b. c. h for all in store and online purchases. starting on the 1st of december after the company explained that the press release was fraudulent bitcoin cash gave up all of its gains on the day and actually dip below the price where it all started. joining us now discuss our bill bus co host and our favorite crypto analysts, ben swan, and christy i. christy, i want to start with you here. this is kind of, this is kind of fraudulent press release. had gone on before with a

when the government us government write down the administration is telling us not to. and it's, it's very worrisome ahead and especially natural gas side that i hope we talk about . so here i was asking you to be a very tight market also, and you see what clean energy has done in britain and asia over the last few weeks . and just tremendous sparks in their process because they don't have a good, sustainable, a fuel supply like we do here in america. yeah, and i do want to get into that. i know you mentioned the energy transfer we're seeing in europe and asia are their concerns of the u. s. could being next on the list. and is there anything that bind administration can and should be doing right now to prevent it? will embarrassingly on the texan because we are supposed to be the leaders in the energy industry. but as you all know, we had a horrendous snow my getting us what we called it in february, where are a solar panels in texas. we got probably the most anywhere in the world windmills, which got more where it went more those. but when it's cloudy, snowy and no wi

so many good people are helping us. it makes us feel very proud that we are together in the oh, i see that it doesn't look like this is of off the old you actually are 0. so can you through the with that actually use um, she, she says to build me up with your school budget that i can use to tell you because if i was in the school from a credit issued by she was in join me every 1st day on the alex summon show and i'll be speaking to guess in the world, the politic sport business. i'm show business. i'll see you then. me the know what was, what was the good them and you can measure can while we're on by now, i know i should know moment the new york on mon tesla deals on miles like the ones that are similar now, you know, but i do need an initiation and much, i don't know how you get off the. so give me a shout and one out my my name is the the, the, the israels air force that has struck the ground targets in southern lebanon as a week of simmering tensions in the middle east. results in the exchange of rocket fire. you n

according to us sources, the majority of cyber tax in the world are performed from us cyberspace. the 2nd one is canada din to latin american states. and then the u. k. only russia is not listed among the cyber spaces where the majority of cyber attacks come from. i see now during biden press conferences, where no, notably, no russian journalists were allowed to ask questions. he argued that russia should care about its image, claiming the world would never accuse the us of interfering and democratic elections. biden also said he conveyed the following on the issue of cybersecurity . pointed out to him, we have significant cyber capability that he knows he doesn't know exactly what it has been a significant in the contract a violate these basic norms. we will respond cyber. he knows joining me now to break down this meeting or boom. moscow has been swan and christy i. okay ben, start us off. what if anything came out of this meeting? yeah, i'm not sure anything came out of the meeting other than kind of a comparison. i guess it's fine if you're in the media to compare the 2 leader

i appreciate the fact that you always come with illustration for us. now, there seem to be a lot of fear when it comes to the stock market, a lot of talk saying, you know, if the federal reserve pulled back on these policies too soon, as they make too much movement, then it will completely crash the stock market. and at the same time, we keep seeing the stock market record high after record high. i mean, what do you make of that? and is it one of those cases where any down trend is going to feel like a crash, no matter what it is? well 1st off, the math does that every time to start the overall, it's called the s and p 500. not the doubt moves down to its 50 day moving average that average price for 50 days. if you bought that or even even better, if it dipped underneath it, you've made money 26 times in a row. so i guarantee you, when it drops down to 50 days, if people are gone for number 28, that's, that's built into the algorithm that's building the we call it muscle memory, right? so you're going to have that in the really the reason is is that ev

ah ah ah ah, i use the use the welcome back. we know it has been a big year so far for the private space industry headlined by 2 billionaires taking trips to the edge of space just within the last month. and there are no signs that it's slowing down. in fact, private investment in space companies hit $4500000000.00 in the 2nd quarter of 2021, a record for the sector according to a new report from space capital. now the report separates investment into 3 categories within the industry, infrastructure distribution and application infrastructure centers on companies that build rocket and satellite and is dominated by the big 3 billionaire back firm space ex blue origin. and virgin galactic distribution has to do with companies that use space related tech for their business. while application is about services that depend on space. for instance, those that rely on gps services think ride sharing companies or mapping software. with these numbers, the industry is expected to eclipse the $9100000000.00 raised in the whole of 2020 . so

that was a very good year for us. and so the prices are up right now, but we don't know how long they're going to stay up. and what that means for next year to again, it's going to be bad for this country. if they don't allow us to drill for our own oil. and that's why why the, i way, please elaborate on that point because, you know, obviously here in the united states we talk so much about the permian basin. we talked about shale. what is happening? why are, i mean, like i know you're saying we don't really know why they're saying don't drill, but what is the state of oil when it comes to the us? will gabriel, we can supply this nation with as much all as they need and a very clean way were importing. i don't know, crowded styles is 4000000 barrels a day from canada, and it's the dirtiest all in the world. and yet, we want to bring that lamb as opposed to letting us real for the well, as we do in this country and a very environmentally sensitive way in a very clean way. and you know, to me were a domestic security in

and any deal will also meet the cost us congress . now, christy, you actually mentioned a lot of these companies. they tend to kind of park their money in countries that have more advantageous tax codes. how are these nations actually taking this proposal? well smaller countries and tax havens like ireland and singapore, they're less thrilled about this. like the tech giants, ireland has long resigned to having more to move than most from the reforms due to the attractiveness of its current 12.5 percent rate to for multi nationals. so ireland has continued to press the case that any final deal must meet the needs of smaller countries, as their economies are dependent on the stock giants. so apple, for example, has been in ireland for decades and they're among the largest employers. so it wants to remain a predictable destination for other foreign countries. and companies. other companies like facebook and google, they've directly employ about one in a workers and ireland, and account for over 80 percent of the corporate tax receipts t

so not only is the us trying to push china out, the us trying to spread their own influence by using this proposal as a leaping board to kind of spread their influence and favor their own tech companies. and kristi did this, china in its own right, have a recourse against that. i mean, beyond just saying, well, we'll pull back all that tech from, you know, say a country like singapore or something like that. is there any other recourse they have against the deal? like that, i don't think they do, and i think that china is actually very defensive and they've made sure that they've fully touched every single sector from technology to cybersecurity, into all of their semiconductor infrastructure and 5 g. they've touched the entire spectrum of technology. so basically, if china were to say, pull out all of their infrastructure, you really would be setting these countries back at least 5 if not 10 years. and china has spent significant billions and billions of dollars. so then these country, the small southeast asian nations, they will be the casualty between the total, between the us and

so many good people are helping us. it makes us feel very proud that we need together in the welcome back. and new blockbuster report from the wall street journal seems to prove facebook has established a secret tier of the elite, the users who are exempt from moderation policies. this, despite the fact that the company publicly state it rules its rules, apply to all will joining us now to break it all down the book, but cover investigative journalists, ben swan. hey ben. i know you're shocked about this story that fits really group of users is not that small of a group, correct? yeah, about 5800000 superstars out there. celebrities and well known personalities with sensually, are given kind of a ability to operate within facebook system that the rest of us, mere mortals are not allowed to have look at, you know, 5800000 people. obviously a lot of people. but when you're talking about, you know, a user ship over a 1000000000 people on facebook, now you're talking about a percentage of people. it's very small. but here's

yes, i want to use the words to answer this question and i have big words to use in this fertility. but the find me, i would like to give a fuller answer to this question if we still have time. so, you know, national, i'd like to start from even the said nation, namely store credit that i like to say that some time ago. unfortunately, our homeland took you through this solved and the nucleus. all that stayed off are a common state of this historic russia and the russian federation itself. i believe it has lost almost half off its industrial potential, half of its economy, super spelled 50 percent and the last, almost half of its population were and a lot of territory as well. territory. if that was very important, essential for industry wise economy wise, these were developed territory instead of glove that russia has invested in for decades for a century. because all the bush stood and make him do it might, might have seemed want. and we'll work with the ability to do with that. we've seen that i have already said that it is impossible and it makes no sense to try to restore the so

because as you guys know, only old people use faith from right and even the old people who use facebook or facet declining. in fact, you know, the internal document show by the year 2023. they're expecting to lose about 45 percent of younger users on facebook. so as an enormous number of users who are going away. and so what this was really about is facebook saying, how do we create a system that targets kids lures lores as it sounds like a creepy word. but a lot of the language they use was actually kind of creepy lores them in my word, not theirs. and then keeps them as kind of customers for life, because it sees them as an untapped financial market or an untapped financial resource that they can access that right now they're failing to access. and i love out one of the documents actually says that a facebook owes it to itself to do this and not ignore this market though. do they really? yeah, and it is interesting. we have facebook used to be the thing that had, you know, billions and billions of people on it. and now i know my little sister is a teenager, and she has no interest in

i think both of those are useful. they're already exists in some of these bills are trying to move forward, but we don't know that congress will ever move these bills forward. there's any mince lobbying, effort, taking place right now to prevent those bills from becoming law. now a big part of this appears just around acquisitions and mergers. like you mentioned for big tech companies, such as when facebook acquired what's up and instagram, is there actually a chance of the government being able to, for sort of a break up a big tech companies? well, it's not so much that they wouldn't break up anything from, from what my understanding is is that the belief here is not that you should make facebook now detached from instagram, at least in the way that these bills are written, the building in the house, what they do is they essentially make it more expensive to go to the process of trying to acquire another company like a facebook trying to acquire and instagram or what's that. now the problem with that is that if you'r

ah, hello, good happy with us. this is.

if it quote, uses energy as a weapon against ukraine. now the us has repeatedly warned about the power, the $11000000000.00 pipeline could give russia over europe. so as part of the deal, germany will agree to spend $70000000.00 on bilateral energy projects with ukraine . the us in germany will also work together to promote $1000000000.00 worth of investments for a green fund aimed at helping ukraine transition to cleaner sources of energy. the construction of the north stream to pipeline is that to be completed by next month . and it is expected to be opperation by the end of this year. as for the specified action, germany is expected to take against russia if it violates the agreement, it is not a part of that remains unclear and time now for a quick break. but when we come back, a middle worker shorted in the united states, many states have pulled back extended unemployment benefits in hope of charging the labor market. did it work? we'll never get a break here. the number that the quote the, the ah ah, the drug started as a way to co

well, joining us now the jobs are due to host kristi. i and octavio marines, the ceo of opened miss l. l. c. christie. let's start with you here. so this crisis feels like it has been creeping up quietly until now. how did we get to this point? well, it's been a perfect storm brewing in the background for some time. now, european gas prices have actually accelerated since the start of april, after an unseemly cold winter. so as a result, your gas storage, hardy dipped below pre pandemic 5 year averages. so they struggle to bring gas supply that are necessary for the winter back to where they should be. and then countries like the u. k, they're especially vulnerable because the u. k. they rely heavily on gas for home heating. but despite the obvious reliance on the fossil fuel for electricity, the u. k. has some of the lowest amounts of gas storage capability in europe, leaving the market completely exposed to supply crash. so less than one percent of your stored gas is actually held by the u. k, well, now the deficit is making the market

use us, you know, you know, strong downward revisions globally. and we think that right now, they're just belief that you know, the delta variance was really going to prove, worry, some in lingering. and i think right now at the start of the week, you have the pfizer and announcement on their vaccine getting the f d a approval. you also have strong optimism that the south has seen the peak in this delta variant wave. and i think there's this optimism, you know, we're gonna, we're gonna have to adjust life with congress and you were going to see surges. but i think that the demand is for crude is still going to remain strong. and this market is heavily in deficit because there's a lack of investment in the wells. so you're probably going to see $70.00 oil and probably the next few months. and i wouldn't rule out $80.00 oil by the end of the year. and so you're saying that in your opinion here, despite the fact that we are seeing some nations institute new travel restrictions, the you don't see oil dropping off the same way we may be. did you know,

so we return in half an hour with the latest you want us again. oh, a theif this boom bus one business show you care to coordinate our branch of board. and i'm rachel levins in washington coming up. we're now one week away from the federal reserve november meeting. so can we expect the long awaited start to tapering? bond purchases and how will the ongoing supply shortages play a role? we'll discuss what tax law has now injured and exclusive tier of us businesses as the evie giant has their pass, a $1000000.00 valuation will bring you the latest. now what push the autopay, the auto company, rather path that mark. and later microsoft says hackers have been attacking critical eye teeth applied to lead to the bottom. what's happening and what effect it may have a lot to get to. let's get started. we leave the program with the latest from the federal reserve as the country awaits. next week's policy meeting. jeremy jerome paul is indicating that we will finally get the official announcement of plans to start tapering, bond purchase at that figure. a $

and i, they build up of gifts or showing of the us, a nato rama on it. forces us on our borders. and by really be spotwood exercises, including your mon clan til of military drills. the us is deploying a certain miss our shield kind of came casara, ina, adapt your over the remaining and poland omega. and chi usually $41.00 kid be require, was it home a whole could miss out? they continued to use this system, so they deployed claim ukraine than their time to file will go down to 8 to 10 minutes. but if, if they deploy us with hypersonic me sales then to 5 minutes, then that's a huge challenge. tor security gonzalez, this is why we're up either. concretely the good reached out to you the u. s. present to our home dealer want with your us go with little talk about a specific arrangement. actually it was him who are, you asked me to nash assign the appropriate personnel and we thought it would then you should submitted. so it was pushed or a draft. she knew that it would precludes any further expansion of nato to the east, to and the deployment of alpha offensive weapons sir, on our

yes, wells are coming online for the us. you're not going to see us return to anything near the levels that we saw to the compet ministries. so i think right now, opec plus knows that this current surgeon prices, it's strictly, mainly because there's fears that we could have a lot more demand during this winter and, but that's going to be short term. i think the, you know, the consensus really is that after we get through this search, whether we hit $9000.00 oil that you know, the warmer months in spring and summer will be back rate at those mid seventy's. and i think that opec plus knows that they're still going to have, you know, stable prices, and they're just going to take advantage of these high prices for the next couple months. yes, certainly, especially as we're watching what may end up happening this winter now. christie, i know another topic that we've been talking a lot about, which also deals with the winter months has been the fact that europe is facing this ongoing search and gas prices. a supplies run low. now

so joining us and discuss it with chief strategist at barbara training. but it's great to have you on the show to day, and i know when we're talking about the oil prices, there have been a lot of predictions that oil could hit $100.00 a barrel and the price will likely stay elevated for months to come. and we know that producers who saw significant losses are kind of letting those prices run a little higher. so is this a game of who blinks 1st in terms of increasing supply and missing out on the continued gains? no, i don't think so. i think you can start with president biden and team that stop shop frail, a fracking, and show producing in the united states. you don't when you turn over control to opec who has, does not have our best interest. you have seen oil prices go from $35.00 last november to $85.00, and probably there's a, there's a fair chance that or like it, if you all time high over $140.00 because there's a huge demand and we are not suppliers anymore. we are now buyers and when you give opec control, that's going to be a much bigger prob, yo

in the us, you can invest in any sector you want. you can invest in defense and utilities and energy in time about smell straightforward. and i think there's been some sort of course retails and trying to, of, of people coming to months to the attention of the authorities. this origin stepping in them taking a bigger cup of the action than they had anticipated. so that's, i think, a bit of uncertainty faced with investments in china. now the chinese certainly of the biggest investors in the world, them and they put this enormous surplus in trade. they have to invest somewhere. and so i don't think that that's going to change. certainly going to be the largest investor, but it's going to be hard for them to fund the largest destination for foreign investment. it's simply a to restrict, to become in the states. and i think that before we go, i want to hit on the state of markets because the dow surged on monday after its worst week since october of last year. while that's the p thought significant gains as well. what's pushing markets

unlike in the us, what this is a huge miss. number of people have that they think that because the country is poor or the people don't have a lot of carnival education that somehow they never manage crypto. that's ridiculous. actually, these countries have a tremendous experience. and deal with all kinds of complicated for an exchanges in competitive currency issues and this dave tact decade. so this is not going to be a problem for l saburd or i'm super optimistic about that. and i think it's going to be the 1st country of predict many that are going to adopt person or beach and then around the world and central bankers can't do anything about it. so it's really exciting. yes, definitely setting the standards, so to speak. now ben, when it comes to el salvador, we know that the country's president is young, but he is also being accused of destroying democracy in the country. and in a recent article, in the late times, he was compared to hugo chavez and best willa. so how does it impact the countries decision to move to bitcoin

so many good people are helping us. it makes us feel very proud that we're in it together with oh, happy new year. special kaiser report with the one and only gerald salenti, originator of the trend forecast. man, you know stuff who's diagnosed with cancer in 2009. when the doctors told me the cancer was incurable, i knew i had to make a change. so i decided to travel to one of the most toxic places in america. florida. one of florida is biggest industries and best kept secrets is phosphate in the biggest layer in 80. $5000000000.00 industry is mosaic. and i, there are reports of millions of gallons of contaminated water now flowing into the florida aquifer name pro. there's a chronic. oh yeah, i don't want to hear that word poets name, but that's what it in 2013 my all our family dog, my brother, who was 21 years old, myself and my father were all a problem with wow. yeah. hold on and they could play it right. yeah. maybe they'll actually learn that more help is more important than with well this is the one business sh

all right, now i also want to bring up the used cars here because last month some analysts believed used car prices would start to fall after being up due to a lack of supply. do these continuing ship issues point to prices continuing to stay high as well? prices are out of this world. if you've got a secondary car that you're not using or a 3rd car you think, you know, is thinking about getting rid of it. now the time to sell, it is not the time to buy. to give you an idea, every sales are up between 34 and 45 percent. corvettes and sports cars are literally you can even touch them if you're looking at a portion and you would say you want to go buy a $911.00, you'll be paying $30000.00 to $40000.00 over sticker right now. you can't get them . and those that are coming in again, supply and demand is all economics, one on one. so sports cars are high, luxury cars are hard to even daily drivers, a minivan or a little fit in where you think the, the sales are. and that big and sedans can't get them. so the supplies high, so used car market is on fire. it's absolutely crazy. the parts of the

ah, so join us in the depths. will remain in the shallows, ah ah, these are the 4 people who pulled the trigger. after 5, something on survival was the hardest thing that i had to face was not having a face. i had a low expectation that accepted the accept the fact that i made that appointment. we had no fears. del change pretty fast for shots. different stories behind the bullets. the. the news a diplomatic, when the 1st us russia submitted the bottom presidency, seize the sides, agree to return their respective ambassadors to that post. so ad caution. i have no illusions following the meeting and these the old no new. there can't be any illusions at all. the u. s. president was apparently left somewhat confused by the some mixing up his counterparts with his predecessor i caught part of prejudice, threat press conference, and his migrants arrive in the hundreds de.

the united states has called for a pause in the use of the just a. blood clotting issue we'll have the latest plus. another record high ahead of the coin base i.p.o. this week we have a panel of experts on hand to discuss the future of the world's most popular cryptocurrency and later new data shows u.s. consumer prices increased in march as inflation remains in focus back show today. and we lead the program here in the united states as the centers for conceit disease control and prevention and food and drug administration have called for a pause in the use of johnson and johnson's one dose coben 1000 bag seen now officials from both organizations held a joint media called tuesday morning to discuss the situation there had been 6 reports of a severe stroke like illness linked to low platelet count. and more than 6000000 doses of the james j. that have been administered so. very rare we're recommending a pause in the use of the j. and j. covert 19 vaccine in order to prepare the health care system to recognize and treat patients the crew quickly and t

so many good people are helping us. it makes it feel very proud that we need together in the ah, you as president joe bought and sons already and called to america, eyes and talks peace like you and i made an unprecedented dispute with nato, led from side accusations of a cold woman from china and shoes that a petrol station cassia in germany after being off to where martha walked, horror and debasing the country's media. frustration grows cobra restriction and poland refuses to comply with any green order. the stopper crucial coal mining facility. meanwhile, brussels continues it.

say with us. oh it really is no thing. they can't ride on police report it in december 2020 a group of anti finishes. fill out a film crew access for 3 months. so like if people organization, if an idea that fascism must be opposed, that you can't allow the game while they may come with that. but he says, but they can say what they believe in. we believe in helping our community. we believe that fascism is one of the major threats to the united states as gotten reuben, this is a chance to see who and teeth are really are. in order for me to extract my 1st amendment right and say that my life matter have to be on to the teeth that, that, that's all americas. we can't trust the police. we can't trust the government. we can't trust anyone except ourselves to protect ourselves in yeah, we're still in el salvador and our in san salvador. it's all popping off here. the country's into the big why as legal tanner's transformative country, transforming the people, transforming the culture and transforming the regional mike chris wi

so join us in the depths will remain in the shallows. one of the worst ever mass shootings in america was in las vegas in 2017. the tragedy exposed to little of the real las vegas where many say elected officials are controlled by casino owners. the dank is shooting revealed wet deal. cmt de really is. and now it's part of the stand machine. most of the american public barely remembers that it happened. that just shows you the power of money in las vegas. the powerful showed that true colors when the pandemic heard the most contagious contagion. there we've seen in decades, and then you have a mayor who doesn't care. so here is caroline goodman, offering the lives of the vegas residence, to re the control group, to the shiny facade, conseula deep indifference to the people who buys could have been saved if they were to take an action. absolutely, keep the registering and keep the slot machines doing in vegas is a money machine is a huge cash register that is ran by people who don't care about people's lives. being lawson a who is patient

but it's a drop by for all of us we have. this is boom bust still in business where you can't afford to mess i'm rachel blevins in washington coming up china says its new digital currency isn't aimed at taking down the u.s. dollar but it is hoping to add another choice to the market we'll take a look at the latest comments plus on the service the u.s. stock markets that appear to be doing just fine but how will 'd it be impacted by the earnings reports were expecting this week that the popular companies tell us time has been hit with an urgent warning from u.s. regulators to keep small children and cut away from one of the products well discuss it all now we have a lot to get to so let's get started. china is the 1st major economy to create a digital currency and the governor of a central bank is now responding to concerns that beijing will present an unprecedented challenge to the global dominance of the u.s. dollar speaking at a forum on sunday he said quote we have said many times that it's a natural process and our goal i

what the link of us are using right now in the senate in the house? well, i that i think that's a really important point, right? the fact that this is not an emergency situation, other than an emergency of the administration's creation. we'll talk about that in a 2nd, but on friday, just as an example, right, the white house, once again, pressing opec, an opec plus to increase production. fascinating, because many critics would say that the u. s. just 2 years ago was actually competing with opec, not begging opec to do more. why can't we get back to that situation and is that entirely, again, a crisis of our own making. when you see us in the permian basin, they're going to produce $4900000.00 barrels a day in the permian, which will be record in the month of december coming out. that's incredible that we could do this in this country, but yeah, we have our administration looking to overseas both asking them increased production but not put people back to work and get good clean. and that's what really is important here is the cleanliness of oil that

make this simple for us. why are the energy prices so high and why is russia increasing the amount of gas it's sending? yeah, well, 1st of all, you heard president putin there talking about this, this idea of the spot market. so that really is why everything so expensive. so see it. this way, so russia, obviously is a big provider of natural gas to europe. whether there's a north stream one north stream too, doesn't matter. because there are pipelines that run across bell roofs. they run across ukraine. that's a big part of the argument, by the way, about north string. russia provides a lot of the natural gas that flows into europe a significant amount of it. the problem is this. there is been no shortage of supply of natural gas. the natural gas that, that russia has been sending is the same as it has been for years. but typically in the natural gas and oil market, you sign long term deals in order to secure that. so european nation should be se signing the deal that the 2530 year deal with russia. se, okay,

let me use the welcome back. the union representing southwest airlines. pilots has filed a lawsuit challenging how the carrier handled the cobra. 1900 pandemic. the southwest airline pilots association filed the complaint in a federal court in dallas earlier this week, alleging the company implemented an emergency time off program change schedules and altered health care and retirement benefits without collectively bargaining the move. the claims would constitute a violation of federal labor law. southwest and its staff have been at odds in recent months as the union threatened to hit the picket live during the winter holiday season. a time of increase travel to protest working conditions in response to the suit, the carriers vice president of labor relations russell mccraney issued a statement saying the company disagrees that change. the changes required negotiation, but claim southwest would continue to work with the union to navigate the quote challenges presented by the pandemic. joining us now to disgust is

ah ah, i use the welcome bag after monday sell off, which so one of the worst days for us markets in recent months, global equities are attempting to rebound while nothing has changed and the liquidity crisis for chinese property developer. ever grand group stocks in hong kong. so gaines of about a half a percent on tuesday after dropping more than 3 percent monday. meanwhile, western markets are still keeping an eye on this month's better reserve policy meeting, which kicked off tuesday, a to europe. the main british, french and german indices, each gained at least one percent. and here in the us, after futures pointed to regaining a good portion of those losses, markets ended up just above flat for the day. with the worry of it ever grand contagion, and monetary policy and focus. where did things go from here we'll discuss. let's bring it to the metro pc of trade, formerly research and peter ship chief economist and global strategies at euro pacific capital. great to have both the view on to talk about these important issues tobin i want to start with you. what happened to markets

so many good people are helping us. it makes us feel very proud that we are in it together with badges, financial survival guide. when customers go buy, you reduce the price didn't help. well, reduce a lower that's under cutting, but what's good for food market is not good for the global economy. with the boot bought the one business show you care to coordinate bridge work and i marriage of lemons in washington coming after news of a new cove at 19 variant continues to take its toll on the market as trading has rebounded slightly following a brutal black friday straight ahead, we'll take a look at the latest concerns and what measures governments are taking to combat the spread of the virus. plus could have been or change your pipeline begin running . the ford is officially certified. that's the major question as germany calls on republicans in congress, not to approve new sanctions against the project for the scott and the rift between the european union in the united kingdom continue to deepen as the 2 remain at odds

and what could it mean for europe in the us? in europe, they've prepared for healthy transition to more energy creation from natural gas in north stream. true is obviously critical, and commodity prices are on the rise and that reinforces their resolve to complete the project and have it fully operational and that's gonna happen soon. so in the us, we don't have a very coherent energy strategy. sure, we want to reduce our carbon footprint, but no one is thoughtfully engaged in how to put it all together. whether it's a partial solution from nuclear energy. we're even wavering with natural gas as we migrate away from coal. although it's cleaner, it's still fossil. so the current zeitgeist sees a world of renewables as the only solution instead of a reasonable part of the solution. so natural gas remains in a more, i think, a critical piece in a more realistic energy strategy as cheap. it's relatively clean, it's abundant, it's reliable. so if we're concerned about energy costs, certainly here in the united states and downstream f

they use the cyber, they use the technology, it's an extension of traditional artificial intelligence has not many main threat. this is due to the 3 laws of robotics. one of the things that is happening at the many cyber implants right now, i'd be where you're really worried about it. most people would equally b, you calling for a chip in my brain. so there has been a lot of progress from the hacker site using ai and using other advanced technology . there has been on the defensive side. mm. the welcome back. and the global regulator formed by the g 7 to target money laundering has a new set of guidelines for the crypto industry. the financial action task force renewed calls for more regulations on crypto firms that would force them to identify customers and report suspicious activity. even though it would be up to the individual countries to adapt to suggested policies, the group has more than a 3 dozen members, which includes the us, china, and the european commission. now in addition to calling for strict regulations on stable coins and platforms that allow peer to peer transaction

not many of us made much money in 2020. i think everybody's trying to get back on and even for this year and, you know, to me again, opec is seeing the pandemic still taking place germany just now. so there are some restrictions now to, for every your cases so covered. that's not a way which really does hurt the energy usage in all the world. so i think everybody's still a little bit aware of what happened last year that it didn't happen again. and the worst thing that can happen is they plugged the marketing market in early 2020, and the price go back down to 30. that did not doing anybody any good. it's in the energy business now. and as we mentioned, the u. s. has been kind of hyper critical of the car towel, calling for more production as the country has made pledges towards reducing reliance on fossil fuels. it's often pointed out that the administration has done everything possible to stop us producers from drilling. so if the u. s. were to change those policies and kind of open that up. would there be that relief on
