I look to the stoxx 600. What are people saying . Jonathan the only good news is we are on session we open much lower, down as much as 3 at one point. It is classic risk aversion to equities. Yields go lower, the dollar yen goes below 120. For me, the big headline is china, china, china. Nonmanufacturing pmi. The story we have been told over the past 12 months is short their manufacturing will weaken but services will improve. Erik i want to bring mike into this as well. Is vicks is what everyone talking about. The volatility that comes as a result of the implied vote of futures. The best thing we have got going , this is the ball in european. Tocks it is up 10 right now but that index, again, this is our best proxy until the vicks starts trading at 9 30. Session lows. The caveat is european volatility has picked up at a time when actually u. S. Volatility, the vicks, has stayed pretty much muted throughout the year. Finally, the vicks woke up. European volatility is being heightened a
Mcconnell in a bad position because theyre going to have to fracture their confidence. This is what happens in washington. Its finding something that ewan fies your side and defies the other. The House Republicans felt good about this plan. Building stronger communities through schools. Thats a hard panel to follow from the first one i have to say. That was an amazing panel and we heard great information. And we will do the same here. By name is robert and im the president and ceo of the Freeman Foundation for educational choice. Were honored to be here with senator scott. Im excited about the panel for three reasons today. One, it features representatives from every sector of k 12 education. Public, private and charter. Two, its going to focus on the transformtive power of Educational Options at the Community Level for individuals and the community. And three, frankly, its a panel full of gift eded people who have been there and done that. People who worked in communities and made rea
25,000 for my sons to go to one school. A school, snow school, that theyve never set foot in for any reason at all. If they were vouchered theyd only be paid once. If it was a scholarship, wed only be paid once. The reason why were in the situation that were in is were trying to keep the other school open so that the grown people can keep their jobs. But what even they neglect to understand is that the number of students doesnt change, its static, meaning if there are thousands of students that need teachers there are thousands of students that need teachers no matter where they are. So if you can halfway teach or at least convince someone for 45 minutes that you can halfway teach, then youre going to have a job as a teacher. We need to make it plain to our community that theyre being played by the system so that the people who dont utilize these urban schools, who send their kids to suburban charter or Catholic Schools, which is always funny, they send their own children to Catholic S

Religious freedom bill. This is Aljazeera America live from new york city, im steph as i. The deadline has come and gone in switzerland but negotiators are trying to reach a preliminary deal with iran. Diplomatics say there is a broad framework of understanding but key issues remain, including the status of sanctions that have crippled ires economy. There has been interpreting the nuances of all the different statements and briefings given overnight, there has been quite a lot of progress, but on balance, i would say not enough to seal the deal that everyone came here to do. There has been the closing of gaps on some of the big issues, but the British Foreign secretary and others have said there still needs to be detailed work on a number of other issues. Whats happening right now is that john kerry the American Foreign secretary, secretary of state is meeting with his counterpart on a oneonone.
