paradise thickens the mall deaves crackdown on the opposition takes a new turn has to talk judges and a former president are arrested. don't welcome you're watching d.w. news well let's go straight to our top story now we've got some real massive turbulence on the world markets has more that's right terry many are already talking about a black monday and that might be a bit premature because that's reserved only for the most severe shocks in financial circles let's have a closer look at what's happened the dow jones industrial average tumbled one thousand one hundred seventy five points that's a minus of four point six percent to close down at twenty four thousand three hundred forty five on monday that's eight percent down so. last week to put this into perspective it's the biggest loss for six years and it marks the largest intra day point decline of all time one thousand five hundred ninety seven points technology in the index nasdaq is also sharply down by three points have sent a combination of factors is at play here wages in the us have risen stronger than expected which stokes fears of rising inflation that will drive interest rates up which makes it more expensive for companies to borrow money cheap money has been driving the rally of recent years also rising interest rates makes a facets like government bonds more attractive for investors so they move out of more risky stops and much of the slump is generated by computers trading orders are triggered when certain shares or other indicators for the preprogrammed level and these other sell orders it's a domino effect and that works within seconds around the globe let's have a look at asian markets which followed wall street's lead japan's nikkei index was down almost seven point one percent that's the biggest point drop since one thousand nine hundred eight stocks across all sectors us getting in the waves of the new york crashed car makers like to go to financial stocks and technology companies

that this selloff actually is healthy at this stage it's where the market is letting off some steam right now in stead of later some analysts say when it could be much more damaging but that chair could disappear of sustained fear for investors has a chilling effect on future investment. good news for the economy turned out to be very bad news for stocks at the start of the trading week the latest data on u.s. wages show average hourly earnings up two point nine percent year on year the highest rate of growth recorded since the middle of twenty zero nine that's following years of stagnation but faster wage growth means employers have to spend more to recruit the workers they want higher pay could equal less profit for shareholders and traders fear possible interest rate hikes. but the market is reacting not so negatively because the economy is doing poorly but quite the contrary because the economy is doing so nicely and we might see some inflation pressure meaning the federal reserve and other central banks around the globe might also become more aggressive and that uncertainty could become a sea change so quote we do not know yet a sea change in central banks meaning sharply higher key lending rates and it growing understanding that loose monetary policy is supposed to be temporary but that's further along the road for now investors are looking more anxious to get the short term u.s. stock futures have slid further since wall street clothes are now down three percent. on kong as one of the most expensive places in the world to live according to

coalition deal terry has that story thank you that's right things are looking better at this point here in germany negotiators from the two biggest parties are close to forming a government it is said conservatives and social democrats were meant to strike a deal by sunday but they're still far apart on several key issues leaders on both sides are pushing hard for an agreement and an end to months of political uncertainty. the end of the road might just be inside the headquarters of the santa leftist p.d.s. where germany's political heavyweights a toughing it out in this last phase of coalition talks negotiated have been fine tuning the deal dying sure ina german government four months after the country's elections. visit we agreed to choose day will be the decisive day we're in the final round and want to finish the negotiations tuesday will be decisive on whether the negotiations will be concluded successfully or not. upci see what honest. health care reform has been a sticking point the social democrats want to end gemini's to th health insurance system is sick an obstacle is fixed term employment contracts which the s.p.d. wants to replace with him and positions that provide greater job security the green party now in the opposition is vehemently opposed to the coalition agreement as it now stands. mood instead of the display of courage to address tasks of the future we're seeing a grand coalition that's concerning itself with minor issues even while the really critical challenge we're facing in europe aren't getting the attention they deserve . talks are said to continue one choose day even if an agreement is finally reached the social democrats rank and file still need to sign off on the deal. let's cross over to our political correspondent husband who is standing by at our our parliamentary studios hundreds of talks were meant to finish on sunday i see you're out in front of the s.p.d. headquarters where the negotiators are meeting today tell us since you are there how close or those negotiators to striking an agreement. well actually today they are changing through the headquarters of the conservative party the christian democratic union which is where i am and they are close they are very close but very often in these kind of negotiations these very last few hours these very last few issues other ones that are really hard to crack and that's what's happening here at the moment the issues are health care and temporary employment and once all of that has been cleared up the sums have to be done they have to see how much money they have promised in the various areas that they have been negotiating about in the last week or so and see whether there is enough money to actually finance all of that so all of that is happening today and the expectation is that the negotiations will go on into the night today and the negotiators have said that they aim for a conclusion sometime today probably sometime tonight as we mentioned a report there and you to the speediest many big changes to germany's health care system and also to a reduction in fist fixed term employment contracts now those are big reforms of the conservatives likely to give the social democrats what they want. well strangely enough i think on the issue of health care there is some possibility of movement there have been indications that the conservatives are likely to make some sort of concession on those issues but the most crucial issue it seems is the question of fixed term employment because industry in germany which is obviously close to the conservative party has been saying that such flexibility and employment is very important for german industry for german if for the german economy and if the social democrats were to try and push through what they are asking for. industry is warning that this could damage the german economy so i think that is going to develop into the most difficult discussion during the course of the day today. the s.p.d. entered these negotiations very reluctantly they're terrified that another grand coalition could ruin them politically how do you read their bargaining strategy in these negotiations hans. so democrats have been putting forward these three main issues on which they wanted some movement that was the issue of migration which has already and in fact been cleared up pretty early in the negotiation and these two issues that we're talking about today health care and fixed term employment and if there are no concessions on those on those points it's not quite sure how the rank and file of the central government kratz are going to react and after all it's going to be a vote by the members by the almost half a million members of the social democrats they still have to accept this agreement ones that has been hammered out. thank you for now did obvious ones want their side the c.d.u. headquarters here in berlin. southeast asia's foreign ministers have begun informal talks
