Activities and a versus r. And d. Have jostled with each other for preeminence brands saunders the current c. E. O. Of allergan and legendary deal maker grew out again when he was named c. E. O. Of forest labs 5 months later he sold for us to act tevez for 25000000000. 00 activists then acquired al again for over 70000000000. 00 and took on its name with more on this transformative acquisition you welcome back adam mesh c. E. O. Of the Adam Mesh Trading Group so adam this is certainly a big day for allergen in 2016 allegan had attempted to sell themselves to pfizer in a 160000000000. 00 merger but that deal ultimately fell through so the question is will this deal close we know that Bristol Myers and sullivan have been delayed due to antitrust concerns so will add the or allegan need to divest any of its assets to push this through. I think the devil may have to divest us as theyve proactively announced that theyre going to do so for example we will. Its a question of how much and we know from the Bristol Myers celgene deal that they had the best in fact on monday Bristol Myers announced that their divesting want to sell jeans top products to avoid those antitrust issues and the governments taking a more conservative approach so its definitely going to be an issue and its smart they brought that up because thats something that were going to look out for. And on this and position will return the company in the us after heading completed its tax inversion deal to ireland in 2015 something weve seen apple do to great effect as well saving the Company Hundreds of millions in taxes and you really this is a good move for l. Again. So inversions were a big deal a couple of years ago than the government took measures to make it a little more difficult to do but its definitely go move 1st because of the 45 percent. Up increase they received today on the buyout is but also because theyll actually save more money through add vs tax structure than their own their Tax Obligations will go down because abby has a much better rate than allegan had even with their inversions so it was definitely a good move for allegheny and and investors are happy and as this acquisition i mean fair for shareholders many works previously expecting allegan to split in order to be shareholder value and activists investors were pressuring the company to separate out its chairman versus the seal roles as currently both are actually held by brant saunders. The Raymond James analyst said that its like christmas in june for alegate in so many think its a good deal but i think his investors it depends on where you bought it the 52 week high on allegan this year was 197 it was trading at like 114116 before the deal went through maybe a little higher and its up almost 40 points on the news so if you bought it lower than youre happy if you paid in the 19. 00 these youre not happy but overall they missed out on the bigger deal the 63000000000. 00 deal is probably the best they could have got right now and im right now this deal looks like essentially temporary bandaid or perhaps a blood infusion for as it loses their exclusive rights to Humira Humira accounting for more than half of the companys revenues can our games pipeline make up for that loss. Blood in jews and thats good for the bottom there yes you know it will it can do is it will add new products and rather than. Rather than saving it it is more of a ban it does buy them more time. Which is important as they need to come out with more products on their own so yes this isnt a killer this is a bandaid but its a time bind and it. And now the entire. Up today even with the market down on the news as we speculate who the next m. N. A. Targets are so there are always a lot of rumors surrounding targets. And clovis so who are you betting on and who are you watching for to be the next murders. When Bristol Myers and celgene did their deal the 1st thing i did was trade for a short term trade that stayed up for over a week and. My number 2 choice because they remain in the news they have some key pads expiring in the 2020s which will give them motivation to be acquired but my number one choice is clovis. Theyre the last stand alone in their area and many have said theyre the number one take out target of 2019 and they already have activists that are gunning to get that company sold so so clovis will be my number one and would be my number 2 but for sure whenever theres a merger like this of this is the fallout and the increased price of rising tide so to speak lifts all ships the whole Biotech Sector should stay somewhere good for a couple weeks so who do you think will be a good partner for clovis and gilliatt who is going to be big enough and as well who will actually have those needs to fill fill their niche. So for clovis its probably going to be one of the bigger players that didnt require any to be better because the last one so one of the biggest ones left the didnt get it done. Or who thats going to be. But theres not that many people that could come in and do a deal of that size either so so the choices will be limited you know there were a lot of rumors surrounding market potentially excel will definitely have to keep an eye on that adam mesh the c. E. O. Of adam mesh training kit thank you so much for your time. Thank you so much for having me.

While huawei has gone the lions share of attention in the wake of the us sanctions as part of the raging trade war sends an crosstown rivals c. T. E. Has been quietly stepping up its business following a near wipe out from american actions the Chinese Telecom giant has announced that it has secured around 25. 00 commercial 5 g. Contracts as a race for high tech Speed Internet heats up this stands as a pretty remarkable feat for a z. T. As they hit some dire straits in the 1st half of 2018 following those sanctions just look at that drop at the start of last year the company has since managed to recover but is still reeling quite a bit this news comes as a huge relief to c. T. E. Who at this point has managed to top ericsson of sweden in terms of 5 g. Contracts however thats Telecom Giant is still behind nokia fenlon and the fellow Chinese Company huawei 5 g. Is slated to be an economic boom in the near future with the Del Oro Group forecasting more than 100000000000. 00 worth of expenditure by 2020. And the upcoming g 20 summit in japan is already making waves with investors anxious to see what will come from some head to head meetings of the gathering stocks are wobbly at best this week archies alex mahela pitches in water where hes keeping an eye on things welcome alex thank you alex the current mix market is being influenced by a number of unpredictable factors a lot of balls in the air so to speak perhaps none greater than the highly anticipated talks between President Trump and chinas president xi chinas president xi who will plan to meet at the g 20 summit what can you tell us about that. You know we have that other thing going on also the tension between iran and the u. S. And that obviously is affecting markets as well and that type of instability always affects markets we have gun play we have Cyber Attacks we have all those wonderful things and nobody really knows which direction thats going but as you just mentioned it seems to be overshadowed by trouble meeting now the markets have been reacting just to what President Trump has been saying in recent days and he said he had a good phone call with president g. M. And the markets go up of course it has put a lot of optimism out there so especially if you follow up by the fact that high level negotiators from china and the u. S. Have spoken nothing really heard from that other than the fact that hey theyre moving forward and thats a very important thing to do especially at this point in time so once we move from there what we have to look at is just this uncertainty that investors still see because we dont know whats going to happen when they meet weve been very optimistic in the past the last time the 2 met a lot of people by you know this is going to get done and then more tariffs popped up so now the question could there be more tariffs well this is when we get its a really scary territory dont you just look at the states right now chinas imports of u. S. Soybeans has dropped over 70 percent year after year just think of this the u. S. Exports in the past 60 percent of soy exports were going to china so this is not only affecting china and china is talking about also cutting more agricultural buys from the states so this really is affecting that level within us our culture of the farmer and the farmer as we know it to many of us is the backbone of our society so this is a terrible terrible thing with you look at if this continues so optimism like i said maybe something could come out of this another area that the u. S. Is getting data also is pork pork sales of the china have gone down and this is an opportune time for the u. S. To be selling pork to china the african swine fever thats out there has basically disseminated. Stocks of pigs in china and asia but now china has turned to canada to brazil to the e. U. To south asia all these other markets to sell them pork meanwhile the u. S. Is missing out on a huge opportunity here you can look at this this is kind of give us a good idea of whats happening here in the past month at the shanghai composite index this is china were looking at a one percent drop today but this tells us give us a picture of whats happening around the world the sort of instability this wall belief area you know everything is kind of going up and down markets arent stable but besides that though theres one other thing that people arent factoring into play here theres more to talk about your which is small caps and transportation stocks this is sending chills down some people spines because many see this as a crisis era signal so when you see these stocks go down the bells start ringing in a lot of peoples heads and this is what we need to be worried about what could fix it all though would be a deal between china and the u. S. And things would get better not only for those 2 countries but for the global economy. Now japan the g 20 host country seems to be doing a little dance when it comes to its policy with Climate Change commitment some are saying that this is because japan is trying to suck up to the u. S. Is there any truth to that oh yeah theres a lot of truth to that lets lets face facts japan has been playing this game sucking up to the u. S. For a while you know just their leader i mean come on you know that everythings kind of changed from what we knew of japan decade or so ago to now the countries playing this very different game almost hawkish japan was one of the most peaceful countries when you put it in your mind for the past since world war 2 and now we have this kind of japan now what were talking about here is Climate Change the paris accord japan has changed its language where its coming to the g. 20 with what its talking about Climate Change its tone down everything so that it could appease the u. S. Which has basically been talking about leaving the accord since 2015 and why is whats japan i should say doing this. Because of trade cars and agriculture 2 things that could get hit hard by the u. S. And japan is a very scared that i might be sent down the same direction as china if it bites heads with President Trump so thats why theyre playing this game and thats why theyre sucking up interesting takes is always our chief correspondent alex mahela bitch thank you thank you.

Turning to Southern Africa zimbabwe is attempting to revive its National Currency 10 years after staggering hyperinflation made the zimbabwean dollar nearly worthless some bubbling officials were forced to effectively adopt the u.

Metal has seen a major spike following instability in the persian gulf and the continued turbulence between the worlds 2 largest economies china and the United States after all of that gold prices are now writing a 6 year high but what could be the outlook for met the metal Going Forward here to help us break it all down and get into gold is peter schiff c. E. O. Of europe persisted capital peter welcome back. Thanks for welcoming me back peter arms and bitcoin prices have risen recently causing many to iranian slee conclude that the 2 are rising for the same reason but stock and bond prices are also rising to corn and stocks are rising as speculative assets while gold and bonds are rising as safe havens peter can you explain on that important clarification. Sure i dont think that anybody who is by coin thinks theyre doing something safe or conservative or theyre buying big congress they think the price is going to go to the moon so in other words theyre speculating now some of the speculation is that one day in the future because it will somehow evolve into a safe haven asset like gold but its clearly not there yet and so some people might are betting that that will be the case in the future but i think as pie in the sky i dont think thats ever going to happen but thats not going to stop people from placing their bets on the other hand i think people are finally buying gold because theyre waking up to reality something they should have known a long time ago and thats that the fed is never going to be able to normalize Interest Rates its never going to be able to shrink its Balance Sheet in fact the fed is now cutting Interest Rates again we are beginning another cycle down were going to 0 the fed is going to go back to quantitative easing they basically said as much today powell had a q. And a where he talked about how the fed was ready to use q. E. Again as part of its tools for the next recession or crisis and so gold is now adjusting weve left a world where people thought the fed was going to keep tightening and and shrinking its Balance Sheet to the new world of reality were going to get lower Interest Rates more money printing more inflation and so investors are now looking ahead against that and theyre buying gold. I dont think im right on the point where the pickling isnt really necessarily a safe haven assets but it is and differently correlated asset is a separate asset class altogether and they cover that investors can actually. Beta from the client so in that respect it would actually make decline some time to heal gold. Well its nothing like gold so its not visual gold its just Digital Assets if you want to call a mouse as they may not be correlated to anything its hard to say yet but i dont think they have any value so i dont think theyre correlated to reality i think people are gambling with crypto currency is just the way you would gamble in the casino but that doesnt mean i would advise Portfolio Managers to take an allocation to buying lottery tickets or you know or going to las vegas but look right now the reason that bitcoin is rising is because few people are selling and a lot of people are buying so all of the gains are on paper maybe a few people are getting out but a lot of people are holding on because they think this is just the beginning and again were going to the moon and people dont want to go want to sell but if we cant make a new high which i think is likely i dont think were going to take out the 20000 high the question is how much more progress will we make right now or you know 11000 and change everybody thinks its a sure thing that were going through 20000 but if we dont if we turn back down and bitcoin starts to break down again remember we were at 3000 or show so at the beginning of the year but if this rally fails then were going to come crashing down and were going to take out those old lows this could simply be a repeat of the big manic runup that we had in 2017 up to 2018 except you know at a lower level we wont peak out as high as we did then and you know that people keep talking about the fact that the institutions are moving in now that somehow its different that even though youre not getting a lot of individuals interested in crypto which clearly is not the case if you look at. The Google Search numbers for people searching for bitcoin its not like it was back then people are speculating that institutions are moving in and i highly doubt that i dont think institutions are that foolish in general theres also speculation that Central Banks are buying there is no way i mean central bankers may be done but theyre certainly not that dumb they are not going to include bitcoin or any other crypto currency as part of their reserves they are buying gold they will continue to buy gold and that is the smart thing to do but theres a lot of risk in these cryptocurrency is there krypto risk digital risk and once the bottom drops out its a long way down and a lot of those paper profits are going to vanish people think theyre making a lot of money right now and bitcoin you havent made anything unless you sell they dont pay dividends they dont pay rance they dont pay interest you only make up you only can make money if you find somebody else to buy the bitcoin that you self. As it does anything bad because while not a lot of the Central Banks are actually buying what they claim to have been a lot of government institutions and Government Entity and i saw a lot of institutional and thats that such as just the j. P. Morgan coin that we pleased to mention who are heavily invested in both the watch chain and the coin the assets out as well. But i dont think theyre heavily invested in big quine but we do have institutions that are looking to allow trading in bitcoins because they want the trading revenue to the extent that people are gambling you might as well get a vague but also you have institutions like look at facebook at libra j. P. Morgan is looking at its own type a coin these coins would compete with bitcoin and i think the Bitcoin Community is trying to put a positive spin on this negative development and so its helped create the buzz and the photo right now is that oh this validates a big point no it doesnt it repudiates bitcoin what these companies are trying to do is create a crypto currency that actually can work that actually delivers on the false promise of bitcoin so this is not a positive development what were seeing happening with competitive coins that might actually have some type of stability and might actually work as a unit of account in the medium of payment Media Exchange vick one will not do that and it will never be a store of value because it has no value that can be stored hot takes from peter schiff c.
