Securities and Exchange Commission now saying that cybercriminals hacked into the agency files last year access information that may have been used to give them a secret edge in trading. Jay clayton says his agency learned last month previously detected they provide the basis for illicit gain adding specifically to test failing component which was patched promptly at the discovery and exploited, resulted in access to nonpublic information. The wall street journals Global Economics editor Jon Hilsenrath are not. Good to see you. Thanks for joining us. Lets go right here then i will ask about the fed. We are still finding out what is interesting is this happen in 2016 and we are just learning about it now. What we think happened here is hackers got into filing system through which companies can put out all of the reports, 10 k. , Quarterly Reports on a new report and theres a number of Different Things that mightve happened. Hackers might have been able to get their hands on this information and trade on it before it got out in public. You know, its also possible as sec chairman clayton says that they can sometimes put out false statement. But there was a case a few years ago for a trader in bulgaria put out a statement about a takeover offer on avon and was able to make a few thousand dollars. The author never happen. It was fate. He traded on the uptake on that. You know, Willie Sutton once said he brought back more than money is. But were seeing right now is forever the information has come at us for hackers weve got equifax and now the sec. Maria debut for more more than four months before security uncovered the mass data breach. In terms of its echo effect story, this is getting worse. Yeah, it sounds like what happened that this is part of the game hackers play, but basically they got into the system in march of this of worked around for a few months. We described in our story of someone breaking into an office and tried to find the doors were the knobs are unlocked. They looked around until they could get their hands on this trove of information worth 140 million individual files. That is the latest story there. Going on for months before they found out about it. Maria obviously yesterday the fed announcing they will start cutting the 4. 5 trillion Balance Sheet of bonds and other securities next month nearly a decade after the financial crisis in a generation. Gina gallant in the economy right now. I want to get your reaction. The decisions that weve made this year and our Balance Sheet or ones with taken because we feel the u. S. Economy is performing well. Maria the market seemed to feel that way as well, john. Absolutely. Look, the Unemployment Rate down Unemployment Rate data for. 44 . Broader measures include people working part time for coming down also. The economy is on track to grow more than 2 this year. It is doing pretty well. One hang up the fed has despite the fact the Economy Senate predicted track, were not getting a lot of inflation. People say why tight Monetary Policy when theres no inflation. They think if they dont move now to look at some financial bubble and they dont want to be behind the curve so they are taking these steps now. Maria based on what was seen in the market reaction, the dow and s p 500 hitting alltime highs yesterday with some of a selloff in treasury bonds, the deal going up more yesterday. Does that send the signal to lease when you watch the fixed income market that faster growth is expect to despite the unwind or investors worried about disruption to those bond markets where you dont have a lot of liquidity to the financial crisis because of regulations and investors worry there is some major shakeup at the fed is unwinding the 4. 5 trillion portfolio. Dagen you know, we had this event a few years ago called the tape called the taper tantrum with the fed was sending out signals it would stop buying bonds in the bond markets not only in the u. S. But all over the world. They have been so transparent with that, signaling this for so long that theres no sign of that happening right now im not one of the reasons why we are seeing stocks at new highs. A fire at the fed, the thing i would be worried about is not the taper tantrum, but what happened in the mid2000 which is the conundrum. They started raising rates and bond yields fell instead of rows and we ended up getting a housing bubble out of that. I think the word has to be the fed doesnt move aggressively enough, yet the spot market remain as they are and we get the bubbles building. Dagen another thing that happened as the fed did that kind of easy kind of easy pc stairstep of Interest Rate increases. Wall street firms got even more creative coming up with ways to package mortgages and get people in when they couldnt afford the homes they were buying. That was a lot of Financial Engineering on behalf of false tree. Dagen, i think thats a really important point. The fed is doing the same thing again right now. They had this very easy pc policy back in the mid2000 or the signal very clearly every single step. It was extremely predict the ball in got complacent and you have to wonder whether the fed is so predict will now that the markets will get complacent and do all kinds of risktaking to end up causing trouble down the road. True three new balance as we watch this economy one step forward, two steps back in some regard. Good to see you. Thank you very much. Jon hilsenrath.

Its going to take a long time, weeks. To rebuild part of the grid and restore power. Maria right, what are the next steps in terms of how the recovery begins . Right now i think people are mostly waiting for the flooding to really improve. We still have remnants of Hurricane Maria. So once it went down considerably in people at fenway source, there are actually a lot of u. S. Resources in the form of fema and Homeland Security and a lot of other supplies and not below mobilize.

Maria monitoring your glucose in all sorts of things monitored. Well talk about that this morning. The president meets with leaders of afghanistan, ukraine and south korea. The president revealing his beta decision on the about era iran nuclear deal. Well get into that. Plus im using Artificial Intelligence to make lifesaving drugs. How can cut production time and cost next. A. I. In virtually every industry. Back in a moment. Im ryan and i quit smoking with chantix. I tried to quit cold turkey. I tried to quit with the patch; that didnt work. Along with support, Chantix Varenicline is proven to help people quit smoking. For me, chantix worked. It reduced my urge to smoke. Compared to the nicotine patch, chantix helped significantly more people quit smoking. When you try to quit smoking, with or without chantix, you may have nicotine withdrawal symptoms. Some people had changes in behavior or thinking, aggression, hostility, agitation, depressed mood or suicidal thoughts or actions with chantix. Serious side effects may include seizures, new or worse heart or blood vessel problems, sleepwalking or allergic and skin reactions which can be lifethreatening. Stop chantix and get help right away if you have any of these. Tell your Healthcare Provider if youve had depression or other Mental Health problems. Decrease alcohol use while taking chantix. Use caution when driving or operating machinery. The most common side effect is nausea. Im so proud to be a nonsmoker. Ask your doctor if chantix is right for you. Many insurance plans cover chantix for a low or 0 copay. But maria Artificial Intelligence breaking new ground in medicine. The cost of developing the legal pharmaceutical drug exceeds 2. 6 billion for Companies Including birth are using a to cut the expense, cost and time that it takes to create new drugs. Here to tell us about it is the ceo of earth. Good to see you. Thanks for being here. Tell us about the company and the interactive biology platform. It the bio pharma company. We are the First Company in to use a. I. Artificial intelligence used in biology is bringing together all of the data and analytics that are helping us drive more of an understanding and patience. Based on the understanding we are able to develop drugs and diagnostics. We announced our partnership with the department of defense firstever a. I. Driven product and diagnostics, which is able to help the dock during patient understand the difference between an enlarged over nine hyper coffee and Prostate Cancer. Right now the only way to determine if a person has a Prostate Cancer or bpa is to do a biopsy and biopsy as you all know are very unsafe. Unfortunately, the side effects can be and the tens or infections. The cost of determining if they have a Prostate Cancer is very high. But they are able to do three simple in a much less invasive manner, much more specific manner to determine if he has a higher chance of Prostate Cancer. Why is it more difficult . Maria faster. Exactly. Human biology in and of itself is extremely complex. For us to process the amount of data in the time it needs to be processed is not possible by the brain. Secondly, by using a. I. , it helps us develop hypocrisies and be more precise. It helps us to understand the areas in the biology with things have gone wrong and help us deliver the drugs and diagnostics in a much more effective way. Dagen this test for a cancer, how widely used willett e. And will it be available to most men who need to get tested for Prostate Cancer . It is astounding that one in every seven american men will be diagnosed in their lifetime at Prostate Cancer. Dagen my father had appeared maria and your father . Dagen he is still alive. Again, the biopsy as you pointed out is incredibly invasive. How widely used what this has to be by doctors . This will be used on an individual who has an enlarged. Basically to every man in the United States and around the world who has no marched to help understand is it just a bph or noncancerous issue or is that Prostate Cancer. It really is available to every single individual. At the man lives long enough, they help identify the cases where you let it rest. Thats exactly right. Two areas and Prostate Cancer. One is the population. Individuals over 70, in some cases the doctor chooses not to give any therapy. It is called active surveillance. But in most cases, the only way to truly know if the individual has Prostate Cancer is to do a serial biopsy. You can imagine of her times of stress and attention put on that individual. With the availability of this test, an individual can conceivably use this every three months, every six months. Instead of having to be a subject to the side effects and the cost of cores of biopsies, one can just take a simple blood test. Tres do that is amazing. We should point out you are using a. I.

Maria welcome back, good thursday morning, first day of fall. Top stories right now 6 30 a. M. On the east coast. North korea threat in focus this morning at the United Nations. In just a few hours President Trump will hold trilateral summit with the leaders of japan now, theyre not because of their regional political issues. For example, president moon when he was running for office, he basically promised dialogue with north korea. He signed a major aid package for pregnant women and children for north korea that japan doesnt agree. He also does not want military action, he does not war military action whereas mr. Abe has supported the idea of having military options on the table. Now, the question is whether the military option is something that they are moving towards to or something that they want north korea to move to. Its an opportunity to get Heads Together and see whats going to be the best solution to contain north korea right now. Its going to be a good meeting but there are differences when it comes to what the regional motivations are and how they want to approach this. I also want to mention in President Trumps in President Trumps speech he has been using so much strong rhetoric saying that he would totally destroy north korea if it was a threat to north korea or allies and the response from north korea is if he was thinking about surprising us with a barking dog, then hes clearly dreaming. The rhetoric is not working against north korea. There has to be more. President trump is talking about sanctions and the needs for countries to come together and pressure north korea. What we are seeing is china and russia really coming together on their own and sort of being an opposing front, even if they are acting in sport of the sanctions and containing north korea, they really are not because what they want is take some of the power away from the u. S. And want a less of a world that has u. S. Strength. Ly mentioned and he mentit in the speech. Its outrageous, i think is what he said. Remember the tweet that raised a lot of eyebrows really going after an ally was interesting. So we will see how that meeting in person works compare today that tweet. Yeah, President Trump is known for saying for saying some pretty strong words and ive always thought that was part of his businessman coming to the table that he likes to start every negotiation with very strong words and then sort of back off because then the other side feels as they though would want something in the negotiation. I always thought that was part of technique but we will see what happens and what comes out of this meeting at this point. Dagen talk about moon and abe and south korea and japan respectfully, but hasnt moon been sounding tougher on defense and aligned with United States and people anticipated early on in terms of the military exercises and then japan on the other hand is increasing missile defense. That was just recently passed. It does seem as united part of the world absolutely. You have to think about people try to get elected and regional politics play a role in what they say. For moon during the election cycle he was saying things that were a lot more relaxed towards any sort of military conflict with the north but then the north keeps ratcheting up and just continues and then next thing you know, south korea is saying that thaad Missile System, now we are okay with that. Now thaad Missile System is now on the korean peninsula. So the other thing is, the military exercises with south korea. We have been doing those for a very long time. The u. S. Military always makes a point these are not in response to rhetoric and what happens in north korea, these were longtime planned. Look at what they are doing. They are basically practicing can south korea. Maria military exercises are being done today so the impact. I think the impact is we are ready for anything that may come and prepared to fight and if you listen to what general mattis has to say, hes a no bs kind of document there may be questions about President Trump and whether he will use strong rhetoric but not really be willing to back it up. I think when you listen to secretary mattis, hes a no bs guy and hes saying that theres a military option that would not destroy south korea, not saying what it is or we really want to get to the point where we are using it but the military exercises make a point to north korea that the u. S. And south korea are ready to fight. Dont forget that china and south korea are also conducting naval exercises and war exercises just north of japan. So, you know, as i mention, the u. S. And north korea the u. S. And south korea, japan working together but at the same time china and russia are certainly working together to destabilize the u. S. Power and power with allies in the region. Maria i think you make a great point about that. They all have political ambitions and motives and they dont necessarily want the u. S. To get any stronger.

Its like an ongoing thing. You really have to understand as you experience. Yeah, its sort of like to Rosetta Stone of wine. We have the wards that tell you the things that you should know, the food pairings, it is really overwhelming. I think the cool other thing about this is nailed to you and picked out so you dont have to deal with the wall of wine. Maria yeah, thats the thing. Prices.

The legislation would implement a Block Grant Program that gives funding to the states and would also eliminate the individual mandate, employer mandate and medicaid expansion. The replacement bill has republican support. Former president obama, however, is slamming the legislation and said the reversal would be frustrating at a minimum. I think they will do it the right way. Tremendous support from republicans, certainly we are 47 or 48 already senators and a lot of others are looking positively. All of them doing without any economy or plain common sense rationale, it frustrates and its certainly frustrate to go have to mobilize every couple of months to keep our leaders from inflicting real human suffering on our constituents. Maria blast from the past. The president now is calling senator rand paul the lone gop leader who has came out against the bill. Rand paul is a friend of mine but he is such a negative force in fixing health care. Grahamcassidy is great and ends obamacare.

Dagen voted against moving the earlier senate bill forward was murkowski, john mccain and Susan Collins. A lot of pressure but it seems with Mitch Mcconnell he will bring it to to a vote. I want to ask the congressman. What about where you would stand on the bill, but theres a lot of people that are being shamed on the bill starting with jimmy kimmel, how many colleagues would be on board aspect. Maria that was a lie. Dagen only obamacare taxes that gets repeal is on medical devices which was a jobkiller. The investment taxes from obamacare is actually still in that bill so whatever he was talking about i have no idea. No,edical device tax for that reason. Maria secilin was making the claims as if we didnt know the bill and we know it very well but hes continuing charade online. Let me turn to tax package, congressman, we are waiting on details from the white house next week on a tax program. If its a 20 corporate rate, if its a 28 passthrough rate, if its taking individual rates to 12points the freedom to air on the side of progrowth. Maria sounds like you think we are going to get a bill and by year f end, do you believe that to be true . I hope so. If we can get a bill soon, then you can do it. Longer this drags out then so we have to get the bill written and then once theres a bill written, everyone could have input and everyone in the republican side we desperately want to get this done. People are going to want to vote for this thing but we have to see it. Maria we want to ask you about this, and i have to get the panels take as well. Samantha power sought to unmask americans on such a frequent basis, almost a daily basis in the days leading to the election. Two sources say that tun masking request exceeded 260 last year. Congressman, shes expected to meet with the senate and House Intelligence Committee as part of russia probe next month, what do you make of the mask, unmasking requests and is there going to be any . Is there going to be any pushback or anything to to get to the bottom of these unmasking and the lawlessness that went on at the end of that politics seem to be involved in wiretap capabilities. Theres going to be repercussions in the congress in terms of trying to reauthorize some of the progr want ben maria are they right now the et of this.

Hurricane marias wrath. After ravaging puerto rico. The 12 punch of harvey and irma. The federal government is hard at work in the aftermath of the hurricane. We are here in a bipartisan delegation to make sure that we can assess the full damage of the hurricane all that those would be needed to rebuild. We made sure that the fema funds were there. They were accelerating very quickly the true cost in assessment of these storms. Warren buffett shed light on that. House majority leader panders to the parents. She was shouted down by young immigrants during a daca event. We will have more on that. The retail giant is using new technologies to guide customers. Markets this morning its expected to be down about eight points. After the Federal Reserve meeting yesterday. They left Interest Rates unchanged. He also also outlined their expectations. Check the european markets this morning. But it is up half a . In asia over overnight markets closed mostly lower. S p downgraded its rating on china. Our top story right now. Berkshire Hathaway Warren Buffett said they suffered greater losses. An interview with the wall street journal he said its very hard to give numbers but there were more total losses by quite a margin. Joining me right now is the chairman and ceo. Its good to see you. Thank you so much for joining us. Its pretty extraordinary. Have he see what is taking place. Weve had three hurricanes and two earthquakes in a months time. The suffering and the enormity of the tragedy to seek human life in our hearts go out to all these people. Our job is to support them in their time of need right now. Can you characterize where the real damage has been done harvey was more of a flooding event than a winter related event and i think that is the berkshire comment about more impact to automobiles. The damage it did through the caribbean and now puerto rico on the wind and rained damage. It does to peoples homes. Buildings to their individual lives in the is that that is the commonality of all three events. And puerto rico is without power this morning. How long does it take to recover from things like this. What would you say the damages. What is your assessment so far. No one has a great handle on this yet. Among all three events anyway. Let alone lets not forget the two earthquakes in mexico and the tragedy of that. Its just unfolding right now. You still see the images of that. On capitol hill the government is working hard on this. You feel like the private sector could really be stepping up. When it comes to with Disaster Recovery that is a role for government. The government always has a role to play in that. The on the role of the private sector. But when it comes to ensuring these events. The private sector can do much more and frankly the government distorts markets and behavior of individuals by underpricing and encouraging people to live. It is for a couple of reasons. One could be that they simply determined not to buy it. People who are less fortunate and therefore they cant afford it. Thats where the governments role is when people are forced to live somewhere but they are exposed to live with peril. Be on to the onto that its the role for the private sector. Where he you see the growth with this point. I know youve done a lot of acquisitions is that still in the cards Going Forward artie think the growth now comes from organic over the last 15 years. Only one third through acquisitions. While i wouldnt say that were ever done making acquisitions and in that regard you stay tuned. If they never make another acquisition the Growth Opportunity in front of us is simply enormous. And you look at the growth of economies and we ensure exposure. And as economies grow and people rise into middle incomes as businesses develop. So does exposure. Our Growth Opportunity in the United States is tremendous. Asia, latin america where we have tremendous presence. Tremendous opportunity. I want to ask about the broad economy. Now the Trip Administration is working on this. One and half trillion dollar tax cut potentially. You say a lot of the customers they are to see the big impact as you see the pastor of the corporate come all the way down. Tax reform for business has two important priorities. The pack system. Which we dont have today. And not a territorial system. Were at a disadvantage. If we in fact implement this kind of tax reform the stimulus into the economy will be tremendous. And that will spur growth in business and jobs and for insurance is a Growth Opportunity. How do things feel for you right now. And then you got the hurricanes and earthquakes. How much a second to take the momentum out of Economic Growth. On one hand the economy takes a shortterm hit from disasters like this. But then as stimulus after that. Because of the rebuilding that takes place. The infrastructure and in replacing buildings in peoples homes into the instruction material. Its a real opportunity. If we were to see a 10 repatriation do think that money comes back here. Tell me about that. Was that largely because of brexit. We have not weve not moved our london headquarters. Briggs that will change the regulations for help Financial Companies can behave. We are establishing we have done business there for many years. With a very large presence in france. There and liked it regulators. The government has been quite accommodating. We picked france because that is the best place to locate the headquarters. Whether it be certain economies in europe and certainly asia. We are present in 55 countries around the world throughout asia and throughout latin america. We are truly Global Organization and we are focused on growth and taking advantage and right now you are kneedeep and supporting all of the people that need you. As we watch the disastrous numbers coming up. Is anything else you can glean from this. When our customers and our insureds when they suffered and suffer and they need to call and contact us. They dont receive an answering machine. Weve over 400 adjusters on the ground we have already examined over 75 of all of the losses that have come in on harvey. We have teams on the ground in puerto rico right now and more flying in as soon as the airports allow an open. Thats why they buy insurance. Evan greenberg is a ceo. There is an app for that also.

This grammatically grammatically would revived health care through block grants rid of individual mandates of obamacare yesterday former president obama gave a speech about Affordable Health care act republican efforts to unwind it called it aggravating saying it laccommon sense rationale. A blake burman at the white house, joining us elian chief advisory Mohamed Elerian thanks for joining us this morning. Thank you. What do you think about this efforts to repeal obamacare if it fails next week in the senate, how will that weigh on markets, what is your take in terms of this policy coming out of washington, and how it impacts stocks . I think maria the markets are less focused on health care, reform and much more focused on tax reform. So the question in the marketplace is will this facilitate or complicate tax reform . That is a really uncertain question, and people are waiting to get indications out of washington. The tax package would you think would move needle on Economic Growth right . Right now the trieshgz or catalyst for this market has been fundamental backdrop seems to have improved quite a bit. It is three triggers one as i say overly contact Economic Growth has improved, mainly on account of what is happening outside the u. S. , two, the fd the markets are very comfortable that the fed other Central Banks will continue to be supportive. Three, there is a lot of cash, sitting on Balance Sheets of companies, and that gets put back into the marketplace, so those three things have been pushing stocks higher and higher. And the hope is you are going to validate prices by improving u. S. Fundamentals. Let me ask you about fed mohamed Federal Reserve announcing yesterday going to reduce massive 4 1 2 trilliondollar portfolio of bonds and securities next month a decade after the biggest financial crisis in generations janet yellen called it a vote of confidence in the economy. Basically, that look, the economy is doing well, and we should start doing this, but this is something we have not seen before mohamed winding down of 4 1 2 trilliondollar portfolio how easy this is going to be . So the fed intends to make iment as in exciting as possible. They wanted to make it as if we are going to watch paint dry. Dull, predictable, that is how they want to make it and i think they are going to succeed because going so slow, more interesting are maria the fed continues to signal higher Interest Rates than priced into markets. And we saw some reaction yesterday. Bond yields have gone up dollar strengthened markets starting to realize the fed still has a december rate hike on radar screen. Maria yeah i think that signaled that yesterday, is that the right course mohamed . Another Interest Rate hike in december as i mentioned i know things have gotten he better but sometimes, it is two he one step back higher rates crash or slow down an economy that is just beginning to gain traction . I dont think they crash the economy. I also dont think they slow the economy. Why . I think there is momentum in this economy not great but Strong Enough momentum that potential upside, if we get tax reform done, so when the fed looks at its two mandates, it gets a green light from the employment mandate, it gets a flashing yellow light from inflation because it believes inflation too well, low well below target 2 has to think of Financial Stability when i put three things together i would urge a rate hike in december as opposed to a wait and see attitude. S p today cutting its Credit Rating for china first time cutting a Credit Rating since 1999 talking about risks from foreign debt this is second down graded by a major Ratings Company this year, what is your that i can on the missou move would you put money in emerging markets china europe . Look around the world for us. First china down graded should not come as great surprise like you said moodys moved earlier a repudiate months ago everybody was expecting s p to follow, but it is a signal to the chinese politicians ahead of a very important gathering that they have to take seriously the growth model that can no longer gen on credit and debt to power this economy forward so it is a very strong message, within china, not a great surprise to the markets, as opposed to what investors should do, if you recent months ago i was on your show kept saying the key thing is to get exposure elsewhere internationally. And that has been the right call. Now unfortunately, it is not as easy a call because emerging markets have done extremely well. I think right now one has to look at valuation and start thinking maybe at this point should i take some cash off market not a lot of cash but some cash off and wait for a better entry point. Maria are interesting how well the International Markets have been do you feel that way in the u. S. As well mohamed. We know market up better than 20 since election, valuations around 18 times earnings would you apply u. S. Stocks today . Depends what starting point is but i join the many professionals who look at this market and say we understand why it has done so well. And it is great that so many people have benefited. But at some point jooufth to validate these asset prices to fundamentals ultimately political call about ability of Congress Administration to get tax reform done to infrastructure and continue on deregulation, we are watching that quick on dollar you mentioned earlier dollar has begun to rise obviously had a tough year, the euro was soaring earlier in the year what is your take on the dollar, and the continued sustained strength here . So ironically the tough years for the dollar means the weaker dollar, has been good for the economy, and good for the stock market. Why . Because chanes earn from sailing abroad the dollar more competitive they are, having said that my major concern that is the system as a whole, doesnt accommodate a strong currency for europe not great news euro has been it is a hot potato no one wants stronger currency keep eye not on u. S. U. S. Is fine but how you add up a Global Economy that is not Strong Enough to support a very appreciated currency. Always a pleasure to see you thanks so much.

Strong with world leader details internet goesnuts over yaind Prime MinisterJustin Trudeaus star wars cool, justin this story half an hour american coal Energy Energy provider opening u. S. Firm coal mine in western kentuckys grove, joining us, ceo grant, good to see you thanks he for joining us. Hi, maria thanks for having me on. Congratulations on new plant take us back to when plants starting you say you are encouraged to build this mine because of President Trumps Energy Policy. Absolutely, so this mine has been in progress for the last for you or so years essentially all the work in the planning that had to occur, to did he lynn eighth resource permitting ready for strucks was prepared, all we had to do raise money, and, on the back of the Trump Administration coming into the into the oval office and ending the war on coal we were able to successfully raise approximately 40 million u. S. Dollars financing ina australian equity market to help build out this mine coupled with 20milliondollar project finance facility from bank in australia going to allow us to fully fund new mine will provide three million tons new high quality thermal coal to a local utility. Specifically from the president orders on Energy Policy with a what has allowed to you create this what about Infrastructure Projects executive order this summer announced to try to speed up, how does it affect the you or do you need more from congress. Sure i think a lot of positive progress in the Trump Administration, from testament pas perspective department of energy, department of interior, reducing a lot of the regulations and a lot of the hurdles put in place for the coal industry. Over the last administration. A lot of that has leveled the Playing Field more for producers as yourselves to go out produce high quality products our country has in billions of tons underneath the ground, Infrastructure Projects again, it is very important for this country broadly for coal industry, we are going to produce a thermal coal tends to be used foreclose it be about electrical Power Generation not as directly impacted by infrastructure build out but our contemporaries who produce metallurgical coals for steel making will benefit significantly from infrastructure provment rollout. I am curious to know what you think the long term prospects are for a coal industry only there is a deregulatory move in pro coal sentiment from this administration, but there seems to be more kind of regulator regulatory whip lash differences from Obama Administration and this one who is to say what next Administration May do do you have confidence the coal industry an sustain itself given overly sentiment around Climate Change and things like that broadly in u. S. Absolutely, i think while u. S. Coal industry is is in decline i do think going to be a very important part of our Energy InfrastructureGoing Forward. And were going to reply a Critical Role as part of that, in what is i think the most well balanced base in the Illinois Basin from supply and demand perspective. You know, as far as regulatory within lash i think the administration has been doing has been helpful they have been rescinding some of the rules overreach on Previous Administration part using a specific tool called congressional review whereby when Congress Comes in says this rule is no, he longer valid, rather than a new administration coming in just promulgating same rule again, it will have to go back to congress would have to go through congress as with any law should normally go through obviously, congress and then up to executive branch. Other than regular lateing sorry, enacting laws through regulators under Obama Administration. Is it safe to say Trump Administration saved coal industry saved jobs if not if creating jobs in that industry . Absolutely. I think you know were hiring right now 200 people over next 12 months to build out our first coal mine. We are going to hire another 300 we hope when we Start Building out second mine 20719. And 2019, folks out of work directly benefiting from some efforts. The administrations efforts obviously only one part of the puzzle, 2016 was terrible year for uask coal that was primarily because of low natural gas prices, and weak demand. Over 2017 that improved gas prices hovering around 3 fairly bullish on them overtime that is allowed u. S. Coal o producers to take the more share away from natural gas as far as electrical generation, also in International Markets while u. S. Coal, domestically dropped International Demand continued to increase i think will continue to increase through 2030 you see extremely High International prices for thermal coal metallurgical coal you havent seen five years that means u. S. Producers are able to export more excesses production that may have historically gone to some plants that have been shuddered. Maria a lot of important points i know you believe coal ahead of gas as Main Energy Source to produce electricity what is longterm plan in terms of cleaner coal. Absolutely i think a lot of interesting things the administration is looking at, basically, we have a great backbone of inexpensive reliable coal fired power utilities in this country, what we dont have is we dont have Newest Technology as far as burning that coal goes countries like japan, korea, building high efficiency low emissions coal plants can take obviously carbon all other bad actors reduce them significantly from burning same coal feed stock the issue in this country our utilities have not been able to use this technology, there have been issues as far as new source review, and other regulations that inprohibit them from modernizing our facility if next five, 10 years we are able to work forward with the administration help with congresss help to go ahead bring in newer technologies can take everything so positive about coal which is low cost Reliable Base Load Power make it cleaner mit less. We will watch the story thank you good to have you on the program. Thank you maria.

We are committed to transforming 640 billiondollar Advertising Industry today mark a massive milestone in getting just a little bit closer to that. I am so glad to be here congratulations for amazing to the family. [applause] maria that was trade desk ceo jeff green one year ago celebrating initial Public Offering since then trade desk has seen Revenue Growth to the tune of record 72. 8 million up 54 yearoveryear joining us to talk more about it jeff green ceo of the trade desk, jeff good to see you thanks for joining us. Thank you so much, excited to be here. Looking at meteorit ing metrr for you what is driving what is happening at trade desk . So the single biggest thing secular tail winds the internet taking over everything most advertising is trans acted in really old way. So of 650 billion dollars that is trans acted Digital Advertising we think about 15 billion is trans acted the right way similar to digital stock transactions in that process transforming other 640, 635 billion dollars. So how do you see the market right now . Because were talking a lot about advertising, o moving to online although right now, the bulk of the money is still in tv, are you seeing increasingly customers want all options digital, as well as traditional or mostly digital . Well, growth coming in digital, of course, there is a lot of discussion about cord cutting cord shaving cord how do you get in front of millennials without being on care, custody and control tvs perhaps most exciting shared in most recent Quarterly Report was that connected tv inventory went up 10x, one thousand percent for us 22, over 22 last year just a commentary how ad funded options on connected tv are growing rapidly and that in order to get in front of those you have to be countercyclicaled of it advertisers looking for digital to solve all problems including tv you point out half the pie. I have a question about how your Technology Works are you essentially creating an auction so that when a viewer or an only or digital eyeball goes to a video or web site you handle that so advertisers get to that demographic is that how it works . Sort of, there are a wunch businesses only that run auctions my last business, i created an exchange sold to microsoft so Companies LikeGoogle Microsoft yahoo they are actually at exchanges host auctions we operate on the other side of the auction listening to seven million auctions every second, so that is how many auctions there are in internet includes things Spotify Pandora nbc, fox, and msn yahoo when they send requests to us we have onetenth of one second, to respond and say do we want this one. So our job and our technology, is to essentially help you know whether bmw mcdonalds Dominos Pizza to figure out of seven million adds every second which ten should they buy. There is talk recently about advertising content going online next to unsavory content, employment youtube temporarily other things what are thoughts on that, and does your Technology Help mitigate some of those challenges . Absolutely. Yes, our tech has to because if you are the biggest brand in the world we power northeasterly all of them, they are all extremely sensitive about showing their content next to things that matter. So it is really important that we make certain that they dont run on content they shouldnt so what is happening on internet people figuring out how to price sort of pricing disparts i between user content and premium they have not discriminated much on content they focus mostly on user as markets mature getting more and more aware that they have to be cognizant of both. Jeff, you reported net new clients what are you respecting year ahead 18, what guidance are you getting. Well, so the guidance given so far reported three times, and each time, we have exceeded expectations continue to inch up our guidance for the fewest we are extremely bullish on our future. One of the things that is especially great about our business is that it is reoccurring and predictable like any fast company we want to figure out exactly what is going to happen, in the future so we can manage expectations, and because we have a really stronghold on our business, we believe, that we are good at predicting what is going to happen, so with 95 client retention, we are really confident that we are going to continue to grow like we are, and especially to see that growth internationally in a new channel like connected of it.
