Well wrap up the first week of earnings season, two names in focus, coke and American Express, both rallyi ining aheaf the bell. Rick perry set to leave trumps cabinet. He will join us live this hour going to start with that slowdown, china saying the economy grew 6 in q3 from a year ago, believed to be chinas slowest gain in nearly three decades. Markets here largely shrugging it off Industrial Production was up from the prior five to 58. Retail sales up from 75 back to 78 so kind of mixed. This one we can say, look, there is something for everybody. Fed can still cut. But im doing a lot of work on American Express this morning. Consumer is still strong consumer strong, business, corporate spend, as barry said, still a lot of negativity among ceos, extends to the election, negativity extends to china, european woes. Go back to the ibm call, we didnt talk

With political flossie provides better answers to todays most important political questions . Of course each of us have always had much to agree upon, limited government, free markets and individual liberty are all pillars of the political flossie that we both value and appalled. Which of often led us to the same policy preferences and conclusions. Yet, what each of us invasion in a Free Society Without governmental and regulatory intrusion often does look quite different.

Streets by people who recognize the street is narrow to make it all most untraversable. They would come up to sussex street and by the time they are diverted two blocks out of the way, they are not pleased with their situation and they are not driving safely and i have seen a lot of near misses on sussex street. Chenry street is a throughstreet. It has two dedicated lanes. It was always the emergency route so now if there are emergencies with the slow street, the emergency vehicles have to take a longer time to get to where they need to go because they are diverted but cant go down the narrow streets. I actually agree with a lot of the people who were talking about slow streets that they actually are not as safe as they are proported to be and would not let my kids ride the bike down the middle of chenry because i would be worried cars angry cars would come down. Please think before you vote for chenry slow streets. Thank you. Thank you for being here. Next speaker, please. I have maps
