A lot of news to talk about today actually first lets talk about futures in china. Because markets are up this morning pointing higher this morning, a gain of start of trading gets because of some optimism over potential deal with china. China said it is going to raise penalties. On i. P. Theft surveillances major point of the negotiations with states and continue trade talk last week this has to be a positive. I think a lot of people are feeling this.
