To produce 3000 cars a week which is not possible and its not fully automated like he had stated they still need manpower which is really good because that means jobs but i think were not going to be talking about a 1000 units a week until youre right about the middle of the year we also have to remember we need sales and if theres no sales there then youre producing product that just sits and thats partly what temp and youre in the u. S. Where theres lots of vehicles sitting in different locations around the country you can look it up online but its looking at shorty Airforce Base and theyre just parked and thats not good you never want to build product thats not being sold youre better off having consumers wait but this is going to be a problem when he owes 1500000000. 00 back to the Chinese Government and you certainly dont want to take that money from the Chinese Government and not be able to pay it back and now also in china as regulators have now find japanese carmaker toyota 12. 5 1000000. 00 for price fixing on their lexus cars in the province so whats the story there and how has lexus been able to continue to grow their sales despite the fact that the chinese autumn market which is the largest auto market in the world as a whole its shrinking. Right when youre looking at lexus and this situation this is really not good to have a fine although ford had a fine with one of their partnerships the Chinese Company has your number that when youre going to build in that country you have to partner with an existing Chinese Company in order so you dont get all the money and all the profits so increasing the price or doing price fixing or playing around with the Chinese Government regulations is never a good thing but theres still a high demand for luxury vehicles and lexus is a luxury high end vehicle and its a sign a success for chinese resident to be driving around in a lexus so they are going to continue to sell of course there is a big push for electric vehicles even though the subsidy has dropped off dramatically so now 2020 looks to be an increasingly tough year for all automakers japans nissan is now slashing their nonessential spending yet again as sales contain a slump so while they arent facing any entirely big cash crunch in november it reported a loss of 70 percent in operating profits so how are they going to dig themselves out of this hole and is their turnaround plan enough to save them. Why i think you put that right there digging themselves out of this hole you have to remember when nissan was in trouble last time the 1st they did is they hired Carlos Guillen who had turned around marino and carlos go and then turned around ray know and nissan and Work Partnership with mitsubishi but now they have this massive coup that weve talked about multiple times to get rid of the c. E. O. Now theyve lost their the brain trust essentially of the company and product needs to be upgraded it needs to have a different look at different quality you know theyve updated the center on some of their other vehicles they still are getting the market share they need and so here in the u. S. Theyve said no nonessential travel 6 no travel for meetings theyre cutting back on a lot now currently nissan brings a lot of journalists to the Chicago Auto Show which i typically go and im hosted by them but theyre cutting back on everything and this is not good when you need to be spending money in order to promote your brand so theyre really cutting back to a huge cash crunch huge nail in their profits and part of that is all that negative press from getting rid of executives and of course getting rid of carlos going we dont know if this is true theres been no facts proposed to the consumer or to the press or even to carlos going to until this is resolved i think its going to put a big hurt on nissan and theyre going to come up with a better way to do business and finally turning back to the states and in los angeles the mayor is now considering to forcing over and lift to use these as a city seeks to cut down on emissions and get more electric vehicles on the streets so this will be a serious blow to her and left who are already facing many many regulatory battles ride sharing was a really hailed as a huge a structure when i 1st came out but now with the tidy new Regulatory Environment with this kill off this nascent segment of right hailing. It might actually kill off right heeling youre correct when you think about making everybody whos a ride share drivers a lot of drivers use your own personal cars youre saying if youre in los angeles this is what the mayor is saying that if you are going to be doing right sharing with a lift or any other company youre going to have to have an electric vehicle if this does come into a law this is going to put a nail in the coffin for all this ride sharing business which is what theyre trying to get consumers to use because in order for someone to buy a new car and only get a subsidy outside of los angeles of 20. 00 extra per week in los angeles 30 not giving you any sort of subsidy just trying to educate you that electric cars are a great solution maybe so but if you could afford a new car you would have bought a new car and you would have had options of buying an electric car or a hybrid or gasoline powered vehicles theres a lot of prius is out there which are really a good mix of hybrid and gasoline thats a lot of drivers use that are left but forcing someone to buy an electric vehicle then pay for that charging is going to be another nail in the coffin for ride sharing and well see any other 1000000000 dollar you know harm blow up lauren fix the car yes thank you so much for being.

On the. Fun now the mountains of only grow. The e. U. Has called on the u. S. Government to ease rules financially squeezing through all nationalities citizens who are unknowingly liable to pay its taxes brussels says a complicated rules are putting an estimated 300000 u. S. Residents in europe under pressure many who havent lived in the us since they were children Charlotte Dubinsky has and find out more. But these socalled accidental americans. Can you imagine living without a bank account no yet thats exactly the situation potentially hundreds of thousands of socalled accidental americans across europe had to do to get salary paying you you can and to you and the bank have been putting in more even more pressure with our part today i mean its such a thing to leave hahaha do you get your salary is one of these accidental americans a u. S. Citizen by birthright to be born there because my father was on the train people thinks months are and i always knew i. Was american what i didnt know it was a tax consequences claire only lived in the United States for a few months and has no other connection she is for all intensive purposes french yet there was a crucial few months have left a heavy burden actually until americans dont have a Us Social Security number something their banks even here in europe are now asking for in 2010 the us inactivate fact this is the foreign account Tax Compliance act that requires all nonu. S. Foreign Financial Institutions to check if customers have a u. S. Connection if they do those assets and identities are to be reported back if they dont the bank faces itself a fine now once the link is made then the problems begin across europe accidental americans have started receiving letters like these informing them that they must provide that normally existing Social Security number without it their occurrence would be closed all they bank cards simply being. Here in france alone some 40000 Bank Accounts face be. In closed over the new year elsewhere some have already had access to the Banking Services terminated one person told me that they have to use a friends Bank Accounts just to get by and with the clock no ticking brussels has joined the fight its urging the u. S. To clarify the rules affecting accidental americans and to cut the cost for no american citizenship a step that claire has already taken its not so you will see not doing anything its also expensive i mean i cant afford it and with people put them into huge huge amounts of money its stressful process i have not seen again america but its not my country yet even over there were no seeing citizenship the rest till demand 6 years of back taxes to be filled leaving some with a hefty bill and there appears to be new thought despite the intervention by the e. U. With just days to go before the deadline accidental americans across europe are concerned that the start of 2020 could mark a freeze on access to Banking Systems and Financial Institutions. For boom bust in paris. The central bank of france is planning to launch a Central Bank Digital currency and 2020 francoise valorize the governor of the French Central Bank announced the organization will start the Pilot Program soley for Financial Institutions before the end the 1st quarter of 2020 according to a tweet from the bank of france the country hopes to be the 1st to issue the socalled c. B. C. It appears that the Central Banks are trying to get a head start with the likes of facebook which hopes to launch their own Digital Currency in libra very soon during her 1st press conference as a president of the European Central Bank Christine Lagarde even said that she sees a clear demand for stable coins while a new survey from the bank of International Settlements show 5563 Central Banks are unlikely to issue a c. B. C. In the near 3 years nearly 70 percent of Central Banks are looking into issuing their own at some point in the future. And what. These were caught up with alim a job managing partner of the botching Founders Fund who brought down the subject with arties branch of war we began by asking him about frances move to explore additional currencies. So according to the bank of International Settlements as you mentioned 70 percent of Central Banks that were surveyed are actually looking at doing a form of a c. V. D. C. Or a Central Bank Digital currency 50 percent of those are actually already working on proof of concepts and so theres a very clear case here for a lot of countries looking at it in the case of france what theyre trialing is a wholesale c. D. C. So its not for general citizens or for retail payments what theyre actually looking for is actually creating a fission sees from the pay from a from a cost perspective and a risk perspective and thats actually going to translate for where theyre looking at as to translate that into actual benefits for interbank payments as well as across the board with assets as they start to digitize and tokenize furthermore a c. D. C. Actually in the current environment of 0. Interest rates or negative Interest Rates as were seeing across europe actually allows us to have an effect of a lower bound that would be lowered even further which gives additional tools to Central Banks know in france specifically it appears that the government is trying to get ahead of this whole Digital Currency phenomena craze or whatever you want to call it due to the eventual rollout of Facebooks Libra now is it a good sign that governments can avoid the coming change of the guard or is it that theyre going to do it poorly to try and beat out facebook. So d what the big concern here is actually a currency that circulating outside of the money supply in outside of the Financial System this actually brings across financial. Ability risk according to the Central Banks and so this is actually the case with Something Like Facebook Libra in the case of for example project venus from buying as theyre actually looking to work with governments to actually launch locally pag fiesta currencies or Central Bank Currencies from an external perspective working with those Central Banks and so that actually has a lot more potential and is much less threatening to these Central Banks and so thats something definitely to watch and how that goes across what Central Banks and looking how they continue to focus on issuing Central Bank Currencies it is interesting to think of having a. A Digital Currency thats not necessarily controlled by the central bank but worked in tandem with the central bank like what you were just talking about with bio nance doesnt that risk having a central bank involved in currency which seems to be the problem in some places that have currency crisis right now. Yes so in the countries where we see in political crisis this is actually where weve also seen a bigger uptake so where theres political turmoil where theres actually some sort of instability or high levels of inflation in those countries you actually see them naturally gravitate towards crypto currencies as earlier adopters and theyve actually already been able to adopt it from the perspective of spending saving receiving and sending to family and friends and so this is something thats quite key that probably doesnt actually get solved with a Central Bank Digital currency if theres a lack of trust in the institutions but where there is trust a Central Bank Digital currency does make. Now if were looking at the surface level of this we notice that Central Banks are looking at quote Digital Currency is rather than quote crypto currency now this is a big distinction that our friends Christiane Ben Swan bring up regularly but only can you clear up. Distinction and more importantly why are they choosing digital over crypto. So with a Central Bank Digital currency they are looking to maintain control of it and maintain the tools that Central Banks have at their disposal and so essential bank would likely actually issue using a private block chain not a public meaning regular citizens like you or i wouldnt be able to see the public ledger having said that we would expect that these would have increased transparency internally to parties and would help to lower things like counterfeit or any sorts of issues that might arise for a private block change they do need to have much higher throughput on transactions and compared to public block chains they do offer that as a Reference Point you could look at pay in china on singles day a couple of years ago they process 256000. 00 transactions per 2nd and so if you were to actually have a Financial System with a block chain layer we would need to at least have that sort of throughput for it to be viable in most countries. Now were running short on time so i do want to bring this here because i respect your great. As we come to an end a 2019 here what are you looking for as the big trends and innovations in black Chain Technology in the coming year because weve seen it grow bigger and bigger every year. So in 2021 of the areas that were particularly looking at is actually crypto monitoring and so Companies Like chain analysis are in are very interesting to watch because this is where they can actually work with Law Enforcement or tax authorities to monitor crypto transactions some people might not like but its actually an area thats one of the hottest with several acquisitions that have already happened to date another interesting to watch. Structure to watch in 2020 is actually the Gaming Sector weve seen actually games such as gods unchained or splinter lance actually start and continue to gain a lot of traction according to stated that right now which is a web site that tracks these sorts of top jobs were actually seeing Something Like splinter land which is a trading card game continue to grow so these are both very interesting sectors to continue to watch in 2020 in addition to Central Bank Digital currencies.
