Quarter past the hour, time for a check of sports from around the world, here's Dan Schwartzman. Thanks, dag. Saudi Arabian club Al nasr has reportedly offered Chris Tanner now to a three and a half year contract valued at more than a 100 million pounds per year, but the 5 time below door winner will wait until after the World Cup to make a decision Ronaldo left Manchester United by mutual termination and is free to sign with any club in report at least still hoping to land with the European club. Saudi Arabia hopes that with Ronaldo playing in the country that would help their 2030 joint World Cup bid with Greece and Egypt. Argentina advances to the knockout round of the cup with a two zero winner for Poland, as Argentina overcomes a missed penalty kick by Messi in the first half. Meanwhile, Poland also advanced his due to golden hill despite Mexico beating Saudi Arabia two to one as Mexico misses the knockout stage for the first time since 1990. After the match, Mexico manager Tata martino announcing that he was leaving his post as his contract had ended. Elsewhere Tunisia shots frames one nil as France played mostly backups while Australia stunts Denmark one nil to move on to the round of 16. The Brooklyn Nets will be without garben Simmons for at least three games as Simmons is dealing with the left lateral upper cap spring suffered in Monday's game versus Orlando. The 26 year old has already missed 6 games this season due to left knee soreness. Finally former New York Yankees great Don Manley has agreed to become the bench coach of the Toronto Blue Jays after 7 seasons managing the Miami Marlins, and we also manage the LA Dodgers for 5 seasons before heading to Miami. I'm the schwarzman met your Bloomberg world sports op day. Markets, headlines, and breaking news 24 hours a day. At Bloomberg dot com, the Bloomberg business out and at Bloomberg quick tape. This is a Bloomberg business flash. Quite a robust rally in the Asia Pacific here at the moment if you look at futures, and even the cash markets and the limited market action we see the nikkei up one and a half percent, the SX 200, up one full percent by now you've heard a lot about the fed chief Jerome Powell indicating a slowing down of the pace of rate hikes. But what about what's happening in China? China is amending its COVID approach and we heard from the vice premier soon line. So this is not an official of the health commission. This is about as high as you can get except for the general secretary himself saying and actually putting this on omicron saying that as omicron becomes less severe, the anti virus fight can move into a new stage and thus the amending the COVID approach. So investors feasted on that, Alibaba was up 9.6% that was precisely what the NASDAQ golden dragon China index was up 9.6%, and that's a lot more than the gains we saw on Wall Street. So perhaps to global investors, the reopening of China, if indeed that's what's happening, it's just as important. If not even more important than the fed indicating a slightly slower pace of rate hikes. We'll get to some of the numbers when we look at markets again in 15 minutes. That's a check of market action. Let's get headline news with Ed Baxter in San Francisco. All right, Brian, thank you officials are
