There are a lot of people who disagree with Charlie Hebdo theres all this thousands of what you would call is the list is a mystic stream ists. Its very few more terrorists theres very few people who actually do deal if the Charlie Hebdo was so offensive was so horrible surely they could be thousands of people on the streets starving one another its not its a tiny tiny minority what is it about the tiny minority that distinguishes them from all the rest of us and thats why you have to look at this that the individual level when one starts it almost gives legitimacy to the others so the reason that france has raised its terrorism level is because it takes one and its kind of like a rally around the flag now were all going to go because it becomes rational you know when you think that you will get legitimacy for it. To ation in france on our website r. T. Dot com and get the latest updates by following us on twitter ill be back with more news in just about half an hour thanks for watching and i hope to see that. This is a boom bust for the one business show you cant afford to miss for in washington. With less than a week until the United States election g. D. P. That it is out in the nation of the seen its fastest growth ever amid the copen 1000. 00 crisis but the economy is still far from a full recovery straight ahead we break down the spike in growth and the economic state of the nation plus big tech is back under fire at some of the most powerful people in the sector face down Congress Later on and we bring you up to speed on the meetings and what regulation we could see moving forward with a packed show today so lets dive right in. And we leave the program with the latest Economic Data out of the United States the u. S. Economy grew at a record 33 point one percent annual rate for the 3rd quarter of the year increasing 7. 4 percent over the 2nd quarter now according to data from the Commerce Department reported thursday that the gains however were not enough to recoup the massive decline in the 1st half of this year the economic expansion for july through september comes after a 31. 4 percent contraction for the prior quarter meanwhile weekly jobless claims fell to the lowest level of the copen 1000. 00 pandemic. The Labor Department reported thursday weekly jobless claims came in at just over 7 750004 the week ending the 24th of october down 40000 from the week prior now this is the lowest number seen since mid march continuing claims or those receiving benefits for at least 2 weeks dropped by more than 700007 point 75000000 now despite Huge Positive numbers the latest wave of coping 1000 cases in the u. S. Is raising alarms about the recovery so lets go ahead and get some expert analysis from blue bus cohost christy i and c. E. O. Of pimco portfolio strategies michael plan to thank you both for being here michael i want to start with you today Government Debt the Government Data on thursday showed a record setting rebound in economic output as we just said growing at its fastest 3 months ever but this is quite misleading as unemployment is still pretty high and demand is being depressed so how should we interpret this data point at this time. Well the Unemployment Rate is still 8 percent so im not going to send skyrockets up about this state a look im not a republican im not a democrat im a libertarian so im going to give you the honest truth if an economy crashes because you shut it down in the 2nd quarter and you open everything up in the 3rd quarter guess what you know were big short rebound where the sharpest rebounds in fact the sharpest rebound in history but you wont hear the republicans talk about how to crash the most in history during q 2 here heres the man were still down 2. 9 percent in g. D. P. Year over year and theres a spike and then drinkin over 3 trillion dollars through hell its not the money in handing it out to people you know we havent reached trillion dollar deficit all that was modernized by the fed and guess what now all street deep state of wall street wants now theyre begging for more school debt and deficits and more helicopter money guess what rent it cant print enough money to destroy or fires sorry. Christie you know we just talked about stock market Barrett Michael put it so eloquently but stocks worldwide have attempted to stabilize after the worst rout since june people are starting to talk about more of a w. Shaped recovery rather than the v. Shape we have talked about before how is Market Sentiment now going into the 4th quarter. I think a lot has changed in basically last few days after weve seen some very significant spikes and a virus in europe and the u. S. Market sentiment is starting to sour and lets keep on making these very optimistic projections so for us we talked about of each recovery and then when that didnt work it turned into a new shaped recovery now its a doubling you know so all that really depends on having it workable vaccine and a sharp bounce all of which not of which are were remotely even close to right now so theres still too much optimism and Wishful Thinking at this point especially since the fact that yesterday we saw global stocks losing nearly 2 trillion dollars over fears of the 2nd wave and at addition investors are also increasingly wary of a contested us election that could also a wave of risk assets selling and liquidation so meanwhile for asia experiencing a very different story from the u. S. And europe stocks are only moderately lower this week and while it echoed concerns over the us elections it isnt partaking in any of the 2nd or 3rd wave story because its got cold and largely under control so as a result domestic economies in asia they look quite stable relative to the west taiwan especially which has it just best performing currency anything recently just marked its 200 strength day without local transmission on thursday meanwhile france germany and the u. S. Were preparing for additional lock downs and now michael i want to talk about this because we talk about this we dont obviously you dont believe in the rebound because i dont i dont believe in the rebound but you dont the numbers dont tell the whole story because those are about what britain theyre not there was a rebound why there was a rebound what is it is a design the answer is that when you but not as you want to tell you its not really a lie will rebound because its predicated on helicopter money so we dont get a blue wave were at least at the he said it doesnt stay a republican its lips a democrat then you might get some more and look up the money and you might get some more you know fiscal deficits going but until then theres 22 mil. People still collecting Unemployment Benefits in this country that number was 1400000 people a year ago initial claims 732000 thats way above where they were last year there were 2 this year at this time 200000 initial unemployment claims oh absolutely eternity is not sustainable unless you continue this force of massive deficit spending all that much noise by the fed and in my opinion where i come from its not a viable recovery you cant create that and michael i hear this sentiment a lot but its not a viable recovery that we cant continue to bring in and as you put it helicopter money so what is the solution at this point are we supposed to let the economy fail because frankly if you look at this pike overnighting case is there is a realistic possibility that we may also go back into a lockout and like you said thats what drove us down in the 2nd quarter in the 1st place so what do you see things going at that point you know listen im a libertarian again you know im sorry you know this is an imperfect world this isnt have it sometimes guess what sometimes the stock market goes down and you know what sometimes recessions happen but guess what the market is beautiful it reconciles all these imbalances it lets people that are making typewriters go out of business and then 20 percent of Zombie Companies in the United States dont belong there if youve got a business to now very sorry people and get the wires and theyre in trouble thats why we have c. Units in this world ok im all for safety nets well why do we need to pay people more money than they would if it were working games where you would thats ridiculous to me so yes you have to live in reality soon or otherwise the currency will collapse and or the bond market will collapse thats eventually were headed and then rather not of what i really want to wait that inevitability with with all this data coming in today i want to bring in adam ash. C. E. O. Of atomised trading as well to that conversation to talk a take a look at further at markets adam thank you for joining us in this in this panel as well were just adam were just 5 days away from elections now as we just mentioned so are we expect to see even more high into levels of volatility going into this our best position going into the elections and how do you think markets will react i think that even if there is a contested election volatility will be less than expected markets forward looking i think in prices that in and we also have a history of events that didnt go the way we thought and what happened afterwards surprised as well briggs it was supposed to be catastrophic and it was not President Trump getting a left it was supposed to be a catastrophic event it was nothing so if theres a contested election it will last for a couple of days there might be a temporary sell off but i think if you sell on the basis of a contested election thats going to be a short lived strategy and you can get really burned on the rebound and now kristie equities are rebounding. After a couple days of bad things sell offs as we just talked about the market is being led by big tech ahead of earnings as g. D. P. Tops expectations how are earning shaping out so far. Also what weve been saying since basically march the market is kind of being driven by big tech at this point but tech and a fault with a tech in them today is really no different as alpha but apple amazon and facebook there are gaining between 2 and 5 percent of propping up the entire market so all 4 of these companies are slated to acquire earnings thursday after market close and so far more than 270 of the 7500 companies they have a quarter 3rd quarter earnings and all of those 85 percent have reported better than expected however once again weve seen these very high beats disappoint as the stock then sell after the results so essentially we could interpret this as either market fatigue that even with strong earnings theres just no more Risk Appetite for these names we could also interpret this as once again the bar was hard to beat was set way too low do you do use the code excuse so any beat lets just underwhelming so once again analysts are looking for Forward Looking Statements they will disappoint as management they provide a little guidance on what to expect to Going Forward so however you look at how they interpret it the market is looking increasingly squishy and there is a lot of downside from here especially for big tech names you know what are you seeing with this big tech awnings day here on thursday. Its crazy apple Amazon Google if you add them up its a 4. 00 trillion dollars market cap thats bigger than france and spain combined so these are countries at this point was so many factors going into it but again i dont mean to him that i think the theme ive been through is markets forward looking at what they say right now wont be as big a deal as what they see the future so if you think about it as if you were betting on a boxing match it doesnt matter if the fire went so now that its well if i would be when youre down the road 2 years down the road and thats what theyre going to be listening for so you might hear one number its exactly what you thought the stock was a totally different direction. Theres so much weighing on this somewhat uncertainty now if you look at just a couple there on what happened there i think netflix sold off on earnings but its coming all the way back up and it was a present day and then look at snap to death earnings so that soared up so these things could real big but we dont know which direction adam mesh kristie are and michael poto thank you all for your time today. Dorian. And one of the front runners in the race for a coven 1000. 00 vaccine is preparing for a global launch of its potential drug biotech firm the dearness said thursday is already taking 1100000000. 00 in deposits from governments awaiting an effective vaccine now the company said it has agreements in north america the middle east and other regions throughout the world when announced last week it had completed the role that for its 30000 person late stage Trial Company c. E. O. Also told investors thursday the 1st analysis of the efficacy of its vaccine is expected in november on the news but during a stock spike as much as 10 per cent on thursday. And as the us recorded another 80000 cases of co but 19 on wednesday to go ahead and take another look at the trends and spread of the virus globally with r. T. Correspondent sigh a tablet or so where are we thursday surrender right now more than 45000000 cases and almost 1200000 deaths have been reported worldwide from the virus and as of thursday afternoon more than 9000000 confirmed cases in the u. S. While over 233000 have died now and once again record numbers here with 81457 new cases on wednesday and cases ive also read to record levels in more than 20 states including illinois add tennessee new mexico nebraska and utah now and north dakota or cases are actually up 55 percent which actually long ago do not have that many cases they have gotten so overwhelmed their system that theyre ended most of their Contact Tracing so thats where theyre going and of course if thats wrong going up that would mean people are. Covering but thats just not the case because thats are now up 10 percent compared to last week with over 1016 deaths reported on wednesday now in fact in 25 states are where the deaths are once again increasing tennessee for example there are putting a 91 percent jump from last week a record high for the state while the number of average daily deaths in idaho rose about 77 percent and some 26 states are also dealing with a record high in patients being hospitalized now brant i want to compare this to whats happening in europe because also in countries that age out for example they have a largely brought the virus under control but the writer is right now threatens to bring europes Health Care System to the edge of collapse but i want to viewers to take a look at this graph right here so the e. U. Countries and the u. K. They have already surpassed to us in new cases you know in the past week countries throughout europe including italy croatia the netherlands france and germany poland and the u. K. Have all recorded their highest daily caseload since a pandemic started but 2 kind trees right now and thats a belgium and Czech Republic and thats the blue and the yellow that you see the yellow is belgium the blue being Czech Republic you see there have surpassed the u. S. U. K. And e. U. Countries as a whole to gether now these 2 countries the Czech Republic had a daily record of 16000. 00 new cases while belgium there were also just a rat a record of new cases at around 700000 now while medical experts there cant right now point to anything specific associated with the job but they think population density may be a huge factor and like many other European Countries both the Czech Republic and belgium theyre working very quickly to. The downspout of the virus now in addition to closing all our restaurants and bars so eating stablish month plus all entertainment events bell that also suspended all nonurgent surgeries for a month to free up hospital space for corona virus patients that are going and checking in an i. C. U. But is it too late to avoid a deadly 2nd wave will see that in the coming weeks and r. T. Correspondents savage are thank you for keeping us up to date. And time now for a quick break but hang here because when we return we bring you up to speed on the grilling of big tech leaders from capitol hill and what sort of regulation could lie ahead for the sector as we go to break here the numbers of the close. To. 100 makes no sense you know borders just lying to nationalities. Summary. Judgment is coming very close is this. We can do better we should be doing. Everyone is contributing each of our own way but we also know that this crisis will not go on forever the challenges created just a response has been so many good people are helping us. It makes us feel very proud that were in it together. And welcome back c. E. O. s of the Largest Tech Companies in the world were grilled by congress when they in what was supposed to be a hearing about section 230 protections and instead spun into arguments over antitrust and tech censorship mr dorsey how does a claim by chinese communists that the u. S. Military is to blame for coded remain up for 2 months without effect and the president s tweet about security mail in ballots get labeled instantly and we did take action on the tweet because we saw it we saw the confusion in my courage and we labeled it accordingly and the goal were labeling speaking of the president s tweet yes im going to go over labeling is to provide more context to connect the dots i was there people can have permission so they can make decisions for themselves. And theres a lot to go over so to do so joining us now is boom bust cohost ben swan an International Regulatory attorney miles edward thank you both for joining us today now bend over there you hear alphabet c. E. O. s in our pichai talk specifically about section 230 and he had best to say let me be clear we approach a war without political bias stall to do otherwise would be contrary to both our business interests and our mission which comforts us to make information accessible to every type of person no matter where they live or what they believe of course our ability to provide access to a wide range of information is only possible because of existing legal pretty marks like section 230. 00. I guess ben the 1000000 dollar 1000000000 dollar question here is is he right you have a multibillion dollar question and no hes equal yes hes right and no hes not right he let me break this down yes hes right that section 230 is critically important jack dorsey talked about at this hearing as well section 23 who has allows the internet to create all of this vibrancy that it is created is because of the protections and that yes yes yes i agree 100 percent but our Tech Companies are violating the spirit of section 230. 00 when they act as publishers and remove content that they dont like especially in the process that theyve been using which is a no matter what some says jack dorsey says or Mark Zuckerberg says it is very clear that certain kinds of content by moderators and Fact Checkers is remove some of it for political reasons some of it because of special Interest Groups but it is removed not based upon any clear criteria regardless of where you find yourself there is no clarity in this process and that becomes a problem section 230 is needed but Tech Companies should not have a right to it simply because of the fact that they exist and miles now we know that the d. O. J. Has launched its air to trust case against google that is over anticompetitive practices due to these discussions of fairness and political actually cloud that discussion. Well yes but if you look at whos clouding the discussion here is the online social media platforms by allowing some users to post their content and then discriminating against other users for on a very very subjective basis and this is been going on for a number of years so if you even remember neutrality wish democrats in the states are still trying to get through and republicans say no so whats happening in relation your social media and the internet have come well in our lives but its also important to note in denver of this that under section. 2 law was a social media platforms to remove content even though that constitutionally protected speech would be allowed somewhere else so we began politics or in the foreground of this right now and will continue to do so until section 2 gets resolved now ben and Mark Zuckerberg are from facebook actually spoke quite a bit about the role that facebook plays in trying to create accountability and its content removal process take a listen here at facebook we publish our standards d and issue quarterly reports on the content that we take down we want an independent Oversight Board that can overturn our decisions and weve committed to an audit of our content reports but i believe congress has a role to play too in order to give people confidence that the process is carried out in a way that balances societys deeply held values of corporately and thats why ive called for regulation. Ben what do you make of that the i dont i dont agree at all look Mark Zuckerberg is saying something that i think is factually untrue 1st of all facebook does not have a clear process for overturning of these Fact Checking organizations when they cancel content or remove content because ive had content removed and it is not clear how that works they have actually outsourced it to these outside groups that are 3rd party groups that have very questionable funding mechanisms of their own because special Interest Groups fund the Fact Checkers that facebook is a hands everything over to but Something ElseMark Zuckerberg said which i do not think is the answer is he says Congress Needs to be more involved no congress does not need to be more involved in what speech is allowed on the internet and what it isnt is not allowed congress does not need to be involved in that instead what we need is clarity from these organizations as to who is a fact checker what constitutes a fact check what is the natural process for this because it doesnt make sense and just a quick example you know this whole hunter biden story which is brought a lot of this to the forefront and ted cruz was yelling that jack dorsey over the bottom line is there still to this day no clarity as to why that content was taken down and other content remains up theres no standards and you see the political nature of this so much that its hard to to sometimes take it serious when they start throwing tweets from this person why do you allow this versus why do you allow that it really becomes very hard to suss out if you will miles is there any way that Congress Actually takes any action on section 230 separate from these actually trust cases that are going on. Absolutely i mean just remember were 230 comes from it comes from the communication decency act of 1996 much you wish were was overturned by the Supreme Court so theres 2 options one you can go ahead and you can amend that section. But would have been on some temporary 3 republican senators where graham black are injured you see on line and. You going to decency act where im sorry diversity act so they want to have a commander early in the name and with this says is that ok facebook and twitter you can have some of these protections but only when you restrict stern types of content and also that you have to be together and share their nonsubjective way. That tells us how you can content and you have it categorized because you now are what ive had to be true and they say otherwise objectionable and what is new when you really are they want to do carrier rides and just protecting terrorism or arms were hurting terrorism or you know. The United States or so on and so forth so theres a number of different ways and made sure. To create media and digital regulatory d agency that would have power are not up in the legislative stands. And act rules and laws when they could you write is a mom or your face can say ok ari do we. Have to any of the 2 miles. Now fortunately were out of time so were going to have to cut very regular. Of that word and ben swan to both cause thank you both for your time and that is it for at this time on both of us you can catch it on demand on portable t. V. Find it at horrible dot t. V. Well see you next time. Even after russia was debunked as a hoax this Conspiracy Theory lives up in it appears to become far too. Arsal of our political discourse if you oppose someone or an idea all you have to do is play in russia no facts necessary slurs in fact was claims for now suffice. In the 1920 s. And thirtys several 100 African Americans moved to the soviet union and many of their descendants still live in russia. Looking at the risk of no no rush but us the up of stuff yes it got worse when things in your bios at the church. Back home but i can merican suffered from racism and a complete lack of prospects. Not the smug that hell be a loser will show them one by else a store on the by doing. So they decided to leave everything behind and start a new life in a country about which they knew almost nothing at all some of the African Americans who were through during the night. Found great crowds. To moulay a good few youre going to go you. Know almost a 100 years later the history is repeating itself my great grandfather george time went to russia. Probably the worst time to go anywhere why not me. When i come here.
