Congratulating president elect joe biden do we know anything about his call the 19 plan as that was such a big part of the campaign so heres a quick summary of bidens pandemic plan so number one hes going to be this is bidens 1st priority is protecting obamacare now right now about 7700000 americans who were laid off during dependent make also lost their Health Coverage as of june now with their dependents they make up about 14600000 people so biden wants to make sure that they once again get access to Health Insurance number 2 a National Mask mandate exactly what that is hes going to be urging governor in every state to have amassed a mandate now a 3rd as a paid sick leave hes going to push for hazard pay for essential workers who are typically very low they get very low paid wages so think of hospital workers agrees Grocery Store workers fast food employees and so on now for us is the c. D. C. Tracker now recalled President Trump temporarily he changed the way hospitals were reporting information to the government he took out the city c. D. C. Out of the equation so bidens going to bring this c. D. C. Back to track the information on coburn 1000 patients now lastly is frequent 100 test for all right now they say free 9 to frequent 1000 nest but thats actually not the case its only free if you have Health Insurance everybody else has to pay something out of pocket so he wants to make sure everybody gets access to a free kovan 100 tests brant and sorry theres been a new informal krone virus found in denmark what do we know right now so last week the Danish Government reported that a mutant form or a krone virus in a mink farms can now spread. Back to the virus and you know guess how the bank got the virus in the 1st place well from farm workers but this is a problem a genetic change of the kron a virus is not occurring in the main now what does that mean if so it has the potential to make a future vaccine not effective and so denmark is in is in the process of killing all minks in the countrys main farms so thats that 15000000 makes in total to reduce the risk of the animal really transmitting this back mutants train back to humans and so other european nations are also responding to this outbreak they have either outright banned anyone whos been in denmark in the last 14 days from entering or theyre requiring a mandatory quarantine upon arrival some are also you even halting any freight from coming from denmark so theyre taking this very seriously are 2 correspondents saya tablature thank you for keeping us up to date. And Global Markets popped on monday following that news regarding pfizers progress on its vaccine now the dow alone was up as much as 7900 points before open before seeing those gains kind of fall off a little bit and closing around 850. 00 points up but it did hit record highs throughout the day while the s. And p. 500. 00 had traded at over 30 percent higher hitting record highs of its own paneuropean stock 600 also gained nearly 4 percent on monday as well so lets go ahead and check in on the state of markets and the economy with boom bust cohost christiane activia marandi c. E. O. Of optimists l. L. C. Thank you both for joining us today octavio i want to start with you the markets are going other tremendous leg up is this rally a little overextended now given that we are still in the midst of the 2nd wave of coping 19 in europe we have a promising vaccine but thats going to take time to deploy and america might be facing more lock downs in states if these counts continue to increase here what are you seeing with this rally. Tell you what it does look like the market is going so well see really serious numbers increase in terms of infections in your especially the u. K. Say is off the charts as you point out and u. S. Numbers going up about this well you know how of the seems like the taliban to be. Disintegrated. But if you look at u. S. Markets as exactly how they seem to be. So the stocks that weve seen. Today things like travel stall Delta Airlines of 70 cent. Com is a company i think everyone there was actually. Telling on the stocks they did badly so the stocks who do baggage they were those kind of tech stocks. Down to the very very apples amazon. And received masses such as gold versus the president of the very hot so maybe looks like the market so were going to back to normal everythings ok at the same time a number of cases a day now so it seems that most of it now kristie to octavius point there the nasdaq is there actually the market laggard today well thats a piece of the dow are both up 3 of 4 percent i want to clarify because i may have said a different over there in the opening but what is behind that lag beyond the obvious here which is that youre probably not going to use exhibits about you might not be watching netflix as much but we also may be a year to year and a half away from vaccinations so what are you seeing here. You know right now this is huge rotation which is crushing a lot of the quote funds so the nasdaq was much higher overnight on the hopes that the fat may have to step there with not much very easy to offset that knocks knock out now well dont be elections but instead weve got this money slice or knew that its a new call that that scene has us 90 percent i think its the brain so that not in this organic real inflation trade today in lieu of the strait were just pumping out all the small cap names at risk you need that got crushed past year and dropping all the duration momentum names just like a lot of bank stocks and the nasdaq comp last so investors are scrambling to cover a lot of their small pot shorts that they place the election and leave the techniques which have been absolutely overwhelming here and out. For the most part and. Honestly theyve been heavy in long and complex that should do that is. That. Theyre getting ever even bottom line. Like. Me so kind of like pull it out become very holy always be playing really theyre very very direct with everything not a group of traditional. And i actively o. The news regarding pfizer and bioethics vaccine is really pushing markets up as we just mentioned well some are calling the timing out of this announcement and the question coming after the election rather than before but it falls in line with the timeline the Companies Set a few weeks ago when they were when pfizer was giving their earnings are market saying this is a real breakthrough or is it no other vaccine bait and switch that weve seen in the past. Well it is a bait and switch the markets for it hook line and sinker and they would put their money where their mouths are and be behind this in fact thats why i dont see a real but i think some of that is an older. Vaccines the promise and zs are many many years i mean were still waiting for a nation on the backs of the decades was just around the corner just a few weeks or months away d from coming to me and so i would i would seek or should we expect in this. Program viruses and disease around for a long time. Since the current rise to some time and success so im not sure why this woman has such an enormous breakthrough. Absolutely proved wrong but i would caution that i didnt think you celebrations would call for this. And now christy when we look at whats been going on with the markets movement especially amid the pandemic big point has been surging and its continuing this joe strong momentum even after a major rally how is this rally different from the one we saw in 2017 where big hit its all time highs and then that subsequently came crashing down. Well this time around is it just not politically different story bitcoin actually entire plot keeps taste that time to mature and its companies actually have time to their bidding and lament that context to buy every day. Back in 27. 00 pm with a speculation of what could be. You know what. Were having to come up. Yet kristie were having a little trouble with your connection so lets lets just go to this next point that i want to hit on with octavio is expected to be a quiet week moving forward after we just lived through basically a hurricane of news in the past 7 days earning season is basically winding down and focus going to shift towards Consumer Spending and this Holiday Season that we have coming up what are you expecting in the 4th quarter of this year. Well i dont. Expect to be a. Leader on the other side of things that i think of course that my natural news got of a slow week but yeah yeah yeah its been a very dark weeks and says by now. You say. Well i think if you look at Consumer Spending overall things look pretty good for u. S. Consumers in september. And now in the 1st bottom of the movie see that nothing terribly serious of a slowdown maybe that consumers are getting because again and look at this and say were not really sure that rex is going and make the election who knows but if the 1st week of the. Beyond that we have got and hes. Only really retaining side. And theres others on the sectors that really we can continue to look so you look at things like entertainment and travel and lines cruise lines things that sort despite the fact that its in almost all of the stock prices are still in very bad in terms of revenues Consumer Spending absent a line when it pops the consumer. With the market thinks things are going but the consumer hasnt been told it was actually messages in the still waiting so ill have to wait and see what happens so far they have a message october optimist alfy and boom bust cohost christi i thank you both for your time today and get. Time now for a quick break but here because when we return the e. U. Is moving forward with 4000000000. 00 in tariffs on u. S. Products to do illegal subsidies provided to boeing well go over the details and how a change in the white house may affect the trade relationship between the 2 sides we have and as we go to break here are the numbers of the quote. During the vietnam war u. S. Forces to neighboring laos there was a secret war. And for years the American People did not know. We mounted laos so much it is officially the most heavily bombed country per capita in all Human History millions of unexploded bombs still in danger lives in this Small Agricultural country tonight and we dont. Even today kids in laos full victims of bombs dropped decades ago is the us making amends for the tragedy in laos built to the people need in that little land of mines. Lets compare biden he comes into office potentially and this means that i believe were going to see a repeat of 2008 remember Obama Took Office and because obama was a pretty young guy at the time and didnt come through financing it was. A law student then very good with constitutional law but he didnt know anything about wall street he kind of threw the keys of wall street over Larry Summers and all these other folks and they went ahead and they created the Global Financial crisis. After a fact that seem to benefit the heirs in a remarkable way remember that billionaires after the 2008 crisis. And or more of their wealth while vast swathes of american population. Bankrupt a lost their house im pretty sure going to see a repeat of that by. Those rules. Theres. Probably wasnt sure. What. You can do though when you discuss all of this the new. Medium we will see in the. Week is with who seem. To be some of these come on and use the. 20th century was thinking of the revolution the Great Depression. The 21st century of mental illness. Thats one of the some psychometrist the only question is should we accept it as a fact. And welcome back the European Union said monday it would impose tariffs on up to 4000000000. 00 in u. S. Goods and services the move comes after the World Trade Organization ruled the u. S. Had provided illegal support to plane maker boeing giving the e. U. The green light to impose limited penalties on u. S. Trade last year the made a similar ruling in favor of the u. S. Due to european subsidies for boeings biggest rival air bus resulting in penalties on e. U. Goods worth up to 7500000000. 00 u officials had hoped to avoid tariffs by a negotiated solution but the 2 sides were unable to come to terms how a very spokesperson for the European Commission said monday a change in leadership in washington could affect the trade relationship between the 2 sides. The u. Is waiting for the new president elect to take office before starting to comment on what this will imply when it comes to our relationship you will have noted of course the Statement Issued by the president on the areas of work to challenges that we both face on which we are looking forward to. Very narrow cooperation with the United States. For more on all of this lets go ahead and bring in hillary ford which board member with the British American Business Association hillary always a pleasure to have you on and i want to start with these tariffs approved by the European Commission why were the 2 sides not able to come to a quote negotiated solution to avoid tariffs or both sides well burn pleasure to be here with you and this has gone on for quite some time this has gone on since before 2004 so way prior to this Previous Administration and many other administrations have tackled with this issues a couple of things big picture details and then sort of the situation so to answer your question they havent come to any agreement due to the duration bought i would say this the the recent tariffs the 4000000000 you referred to there are 15 percent tariffs on boeing products and then there are 25 percent towers being levied thats the remaining 44 percent and those 25 percent tariffs are on such products as u. S. Tobacco u. S. Not seeds u. S. Soups u. S. Sources u. S. Spirits and u. S. Tractors and proteins going into europe so what a lot of this is though is that the e. U. Trade commissioner lattice drum bosky he is actually quoted as saying we will no longer and as soon as the u. S. Stops imposing that are so you can tell the reason for this is they havent come to an agreement because they want leverage and both sides are playing brinkmanship you know President Trump has been a hard liner on trade especially when it comes to situations where he sees as unfair and as we just heard there in the setup was basically there are subsidies on both sides how the debbie cio sees this situation now if their Election Results hold up and joe biden becomes the next president in january do we see this relationship mending and maybe the u. S. Backing down off of their tariffs and a deal being made to do to undo these or to undo the penalties for that better well bred yes i do see if you listen to Robert Reich Hauser the Current White House trade representative hes even already said. That those carrots imposed by imposed by the e. U. Are unlawful because some to get the subsidies to boeing have already been repealed by the u. S. So there really isnt a footing for this given theyve already been repealed i think both sides going back to my were brinksmanship are playing hardball because they want to have something to fall back on and that is what is already alluded to so yes i do see probably off to january both sides will probably step back and step down well hilary talk about hardball for a little bit because negotiations over a post. Between the e. U. Have resumed monday as both sides say theyre actually ready to quote redouble efforts to make it an agreement despite the differences on both sides one of the central issues is access to british fisheries though something thats something weve talked about it a great length now the british environment secretary George Eustace told sky news in the u. K. Is the u. K. Is open to a sensible approach on this as part of a deal what might a sensible approach look like when it comes to the fisheries where you do were going to talk about all these things that have gone on for years yes fred but what this means is what he means by about a sensible approach is 1st of all there is a red line and Boris Johnson referred to the spectacular maritime wealth that the British Isles possesses and there is a red line with regard to control over what a british waters actually if you read the europeans some of the European Press its very interesting to say they say the british insists they should have control what it is their waters but what the red line is is the control however what he uses as just said which is Great Movement he said would be open to a sensible approach Something Like a couple or perhaps 3 years so he now hes actually indicated a duration of time and thats actually it may not sound big but thats a big step forward and i have about 15 seconds for you do we have a deal before the end of 2020. I believe that we will because its in both sides interests none neither side wants to cut off their nose to spite their face and i do think that you look at the job mention this many times the german common factors and all of the manufacturers in europe they want access into the e. U. And they have a lot to lose that putting a lot of pressure on local and from all the fishing villages i think yes you will see a deal hillary ford which of the British American Business Association thank you so much for breaking it all down for us welcome pleasure. And finally a new step forward for virgins ultrafast transportation hyperloop system as it successfully conducted its 1st human passenger test dubbed the pegasus pod the test took place on sunday at the companys dev loop facility in nevada where 2 passengers were fired through a 1600. 00 foot tube now the capsule speed in the test was limited to 107 Miles Per Hour to provide a comfortable ride Virgin Hyperloop projects the system can reach 670 Miles Per Hour so far the companys record is 240 Miles Per Hour that was set in 2017 now greater speeds are expected once the 2nd hyperloop facility is built in west virginia.
