We've got the Nike high by 1.2% and the cost be in South Korea better by half of 1% we had data out of the first South Korea a little bit earlier. Consumer prices moderating in January coming in at 4.8% on year, there wasn't expectation they would hit 5%, so signs that inflation appears to be quieting down so some interesting food for thought for the bank of Korea, which doesn't have its next meeting until April, I believe.

The CSI 300 often declines during these two Sessions meetings, the CPPCC and the NPC. But this time it might be a little bit different because we are expecting a little bit more in the way of stimulus, although some of that may be curtailed a little because of the recent strength in the Chinese economy. Once they ditched a COVID zero, we've seen a little bit of a pickup, the manufacturing PMIs this week were pretty strong. We also had a little bit of improvement in property sales. The CSI 300 at the moment is up a little more than a quarter of 1%. The offshore Chinese currency is trading at 6 90 42. The onshore is a little bit stronger than that 6 89 and change. And the yield on the ten year treasury, 4.05%. It was a pretty solid day on Wall Street. A lot of that fed by comments from Rafael bostick about maybe a pause in the summer. That seems to be built on fairly shaky ground, but anyway, that's how the markets reacted today. Doug to you. Thanks, Brian.

"Certain locations. I'm Brian shook. And I'm Brian Curtis in Los Angeles. Let's check this hour's top business stories and the markets. BOJ governor haruhiko kuroda has stunned markets by adjusting the Central Bank's yield curve control program. It sparked a massive jump in the end. The BOJ will now allow Japan's ten year bond yields to rise to around half a percentage point. That's up from the previous upper limit of a quarter percentage point. The Central Bank kept its target on the yield unchanged at around 0% and left its short term interest rate at -0.1%. Dollar yen, one 33 18, and that is a strengthening of the yen of a massive 2.82%. And the Nike has dropped 2.8% of fall of 755 points. Crypto exchange binance U.S. will buy Voyager digital's assets out of bankruptcy. Voyager selected by Nance has the highest bidder after reviewing options. The deal values Voyager's crypto portfolio at just over a $1 billion. An earlier arrangement had fallen through after FTX imploded back in November. The sale of Voyager's assets are subject to bankruptcy court approval, a hearing scheduled for January 5th. China kept the 5 year loan prime rate unchanged at 4.3%. Bloomberg's Paul Allen asked way Yao chief economist for Asia at societe general for her outlook on China over the next quarter. Throughout the whole pandemic, you know, since 2020, China's fiscal response has been distinctively different from any other major economies in the world, which is they haven't provided much direct income assistance to the households, so the amount of access savings at the household sector at the private sector is much less, which means there is much less impact of inflation, even if they come out of the other end. Typically when Chinese growth does return to trend, we see a big boost in things like commodity prices, a big boost in infrastructure spending. Are we going to see that again, or was this time going to be different? Was he a boost? But it's going to be smaller than before. Housing or infrastructure, these sectors that the economy relied on for fast growth for many, many years, there is a clear question of debt, even though we do believe that housing will see some recovery, but we don't think the housing will go back to the COVID pace of growth, neither was infrastructure. Next year, the recovery going to be led by consumption, but that's a function of pent up demand that people being locked for too long. Well, yeah, apac chief economist at soft gen.

"Bloomberg daybreak Asia. 9 28, Thursday morning in Hong Kong 1228 here in Sydney. I'm Paul Allen. And I'm Brian Curtis looking at market action this morning, which is fairly muted, the hangs hang indexes down about three tenths of 1%. We have a couple markets that are attempting to turn positive. It may be just that valuations are low or that the markets don't really believe Jerome Powell's hawkish commentary. We'll get further details all throughout the next 90 minutes here on the program as we look at markets. For now, some of the top stories. Well, let's start with the fed, raising the benchmark rate by 50 basis points to a four and a quarter to four and a half percent target range. Policymakers projected rates would end next year at 5.1% according to the median forecast and fed chair Jay Powell said the fed has a ways to go before ending its tightening campaign. Here is bowel after today's fed decision. Changing our inflation goal is just something we're not thinking about. It's not something we're not going to think about. We have a 2% inflation goal and we'll use our tools to get inflation back to 2%. I think our policies and getting into a pretty good place now we're restrictive and I think we're getting close to that level of sufficient we think sufficiently restrictive pal said that the size of the next rate hike would depend on incoming data. The next fed meeting, meanwhile, February the first, Brian. We're told that China has asked some of the nation's biggest banks to help stabilize the domestic bond market. Bloomberg's Ivan Mann has more. Sources say regulators are asking lenders to buy bonds via their proprietary trading desks. The goal is to absorb the selling pressure caused by retail withdrawals from some of those same banks as wealth management products. The so called window guidance on bond purchases includes notes from Chinese local government financing bodies, such intervention has had a limited impact so far, traders say local government issue bonds have led to clients in China's onshore credit market Wednesday, an estimate shows that China's onshore bond market may face selling pressure that amounts to $72 billion. In Hong Kong, I'm Yvonne Mann, Bloomberg, daybreak Asia. Fisa clinched an agreement to sell its antiviral medication packs livid in China, it will be through a state owned company China Mexico, the hikers said the agreement is to import and distribute the medication on the Chinese mainland. The agreement is effective immediately, terms though were not disclosed and it's unclear how quickly PEX levitt will be widely available on the Chinese market. China Mexico said its agreement with Pfizer will expire on November 30th of next year. The bank of Japan is said to be considering a policy review next year as after wage growth and a slowdown in the global economy are closely examined. In the past, reviews from the BOJ have resulted in changes to policy, including the introduction of the yield curve control program. However, we also hear that a review before governor Corona ends his term in April is unlikely. Some officials are saying that there is no rush for a review as the bank already had one in March last year. The bank of Japan's policy rate has been standing pat at -0.1% since 2016.

We'll take a closer look at the market action after we update you on a few of the sours top business stories. U.S. employees added more jobs than forecast in November, wages surged by the most nearly a year. At this point to enduring inflation pressures which boost the chances of higher rate hikes from the fed. Here is former treasury secretary, Larry summers. And the labor market is strong and we're still in unprecedented territory in terms of the gap between vacancies and jobs. And I think that what that's got to tell you is that we got a long way to go to get an inflation down where the fed has said that it wants it to be. A number of U.S. indicators have suggested limited impact from the fed's tightening campaign so far, but some as cautioned that the U.S. economy could slide suddenly like an avalanche. He also warned of high interest rate recession risk. FTX founder Sam bankman fried says he will testify to the House financial services committee after he has finished learning and reviewing the events that led to the implosion of his crypto exchange, FTX. Last week, committee chair Maxine waters invited bankman free to a house panel hearing on the 13th, he didn't commit to appearing at this meeting and he tweeted he felt like it was his duty to appear before the committee in the future.

Archegos capital management's Bill Wong has asked a judge to toss out his fraud charges the ones made against him because prosecutors he alleges engaged in deceitful conduct in the early days of the government's probe. We have more from Bloomberg Susanna Palmer. Huang's lawyer said Friday Wong was duped into assisting the government in a number of meetings with investigators who didn't tell him they decided he was more than a mere subject of the probe long is scheduled to go on trial in October 2023. He was arrested April 27th and charged with fraud over the collapse of arcades, which at one point held market positions valued at $160 billion, according to prosecutors. Susanna Palmer, Bloomberg, daybreak, Asia. Coming up on 34 past the hour, let's update you on market action. We were talking earlier about the COVID situation, the relaxation of some of these strict measures and how its influencing influencing sentiment right across every asset class on the mainland look at the currency rallying against the dollar this is the offshore Chinese yuan, 6 96 85 with a gain of just about 8 tenths of 1%. And in the equity market in Hong Kong, the hang sang is better by 3.3% Morgan Stanley today turning bullish again on Chinese stocks after nearly two years the firm is growing or joining I should say a growing course of big banks that are now a little bit more positive on the outlook in China on the mainland Chung high composite better by about 1.3%. Paul was talking earlier about the decision by OPEC plus to keep output steady at the weekend meeting demand yes it's still a very big question. Also impacting the oil market, the European Union sanctions on crude exports from Russia will go into effect on Monday and at the margins consider this Chinese president Xi Jinping will reportedly visit Saudi Arabia at the end of the week. Reuters saying that she is scheduled to arrive in Riyadh on December 7th, WTI crude up 1.8%. I think it's also fair to add to that list of positive attributes of some of the price action in oil is the reopening trade on the mainland. WTI right now, 81 45. In Seoul, the Cosby showing a little bit of weakness now we are down about three tenths of 1% somewhat curious.

"Brian Curtis. And I'm Paul Allen in Sydney, good afternoon, one minute past 12 Thursday here. We got the ASX firmly and positive territory for a closer look at what's going on is da Krishna. Hey Paul, a lot of positivity and markets after fed chair at Jay Powell said the time for moderating the pace of those rate hikes may soon come. Maybe at December's meeting we'll have to take a look at that and we'll do so momentarily here on daybreak Asia. I want to begin with some of the eco data that we've got for South Korea. The PMI numbers, first of all, for the manufacturing side of the month of November, a little above what we had in November, but how, you know, we can't ignore the fact that a reading of 49 were in contraction, and that's been the case now for 5 straight months. Now in terms of South Korean trade data, exports were down in the month of November, 14% year over year, a little below what the street was looking for. The estimate was calling for contraction at a rate of around 11.2%, imports, though, stronger than forecast with a gain year over year of 2.7%. The estimate was looking for an increase of about a half of 1%, but that is probably the result of higher oil prices because the value of imports becomes greater as the price of oil is more. We have in Seoul, the Cosby rising about 8 tenths of 1% in a rally in the Korean Juan stronger by about 1.6% now against the greenback in Tokyo, the nikkei rising by more than 1%, and in Sydney, the ASX 200 is approaching a gain of about 9 tenths of 1%. US Treasury yields now slightly higher, but not by much, boy, we were lower across the curve today, particularly at the short end where the two year was down more than 13 basis points were trading now in the Tokyo session with the yield on the two year 4.31%. We'll take another look at markets for you in about 15 minutes, Brian. I had this in my notes earlier, but I didn't have time to get to it. This was the Taiwan PMI coming in at 41.6 and that was versus 41.5 in October. So it's just another example of the difficulties that manufacturing and indeed economies have had in the region of late. Well, let's take a closer look at the fed actions, chair J pal signaling the fed will likely slow the pace of interest rate hikes soon. Here he is speaking at the brookings institution in Washington. The time for moderating the pace of rate increases may come as soon as the December meeting, our progress in tightening policy, the timing of that moderation is far less significant than the questions of how much further we will need to raise rates to control inflation and the length of time it will be necessary to hold policy at a restrictive level. The fed's recent actions have lifted the target range in their benchmark rate to three and three quarters to 4%. That's up from nearly zero in March. Powell said that rates are now likely to reach a somewhat higher level than officials had estimated in September. We mentioned that that's a potential negative for markets, but they did not focus on that. They focused on the lead that we mentioned there that the slowing of the pace of rate hikes could begin as soon as next month. The projections that we've been talking to median projection earlier was for a terminal rate of 4.6% next year. These projections will be updated at the fed's next meeting in December on December 13th. Well, the fed said the U.S. economy grew only slightly through late November that was mentioned in the latest beige book report, the report said interest rates and inflation continue to weigh on activity, many businesses expressed greater uncertainty or increased pessimism concerning their economic outlook. The report was based on anecdotal information collected by the fed's 12 regional banks that also described the labor market as tight with only modest growth in most districts, policymakers will get the latest read on U.S. employment this Friday. Coming up in a few moments we'll be talking about markets with Ken cheung, who is chief Asian FX strategist at Mizuho bank. Now it's time for world news

We've got more from Bloomberg's Denise Pellegrini. FTX said it was starting bankruptcy proceedings in the U.S. on Friday, and within 24 hours, hundreds of millions of dollars in unauthorized withdrawals vanished. Meantime, the value of the remaining key crypto assets in bagman freed's exchange has plunged. And all this means there could be little chance of customers recovering deposits. We're hearing the bahamian police and securities officials there are looking into possible criminal misconduct. And the other big question could be the level of contagion, the crypto hedge fund galwa capital, telling us over the weekend, it has exposure of up to $45 million and others with exposure include prime brokerage genesis trading Sequoia Capital and Michael novogratz galaxy digital, major questions also remain about the fate of all the companies bankman fried invested in.

Growing U.S. China tensions were one reason for the move according to the Financial Times which cited two unidentified people familiar with the decision. One of the people told the FT, there was the risk of a political backlash against the prospect of U.S. capitol flowing to the Chinese government. Another factor was the reverse of the gap in yields between U.S. and Chinese bonds, meaning US Treasury bonds now deliver a higher return than Chinese counterparts. BlackRock told the FT, it wouldn't comment on market speculation. Susanna Palmer Bloomberg daybreak Asia. Let's take a look at SoftBank shares.

CNN Doctor Pleas for Public Schools to Remain Open for Children's Sake
"Chicago public school teachers, of course, should be at the very least their paycheck should be withheld. If not fired, they've now voted not to go back to in school learning, apparently for fear of the coronavirus of the new variant known as omicron. And here is what doctor Paul Allen, Professor of medicine, from Harvard, said about what happens to kids when they are denied in school learning. After in very simplistic terms, you're saying worse outcomes await kids if they're out of school than if they are in school. Explain. Yeah, thanks for having me back on Michael. Is that simple? We shouldn't close schools because the risks to kids talking about 5 to the elementary and middle school and high school students is low from this virus. And I'll put some numbers to this. The risk of hospitalization has hovered around one per 100,000 throughout the entire pandemic through the origin strain, the alpha strain, even through the delta strain in early evidence shows that this is about the same thing for omicron. The deaths, several major studies have shown hover around one to two per million. The American academy of pediatrics released report two weeks ago that called hospitalizations and deaths in kids quote unquote uncommon. On the flip side of this, the risks of being out of school are severe and they're accumulating fast. We have lost kids have lost 5 months they're behind 5 months in reading and math. Sorry, math scores. Just since the pandemic and remote learning has started. 1 million kids were totally unaccounted for expected to be in school and disappeared from the system. Schools are our first chance to detect neglect and abuse. New York City did a study that showed in just three months of school closures, 8000 reports of abuse and neglect were expected that never came in. They extrapolate this to the country. It's 300,000 reports of neglect and excuse and abuse that never came in. Kids rely on schools for food. 14 million kids weren't getting the food they needed when schools closed. This extends to women in particular working women who have borne the disproportionate burden of kids being home.

Say all of course there is. No there isn't because for car yvette. Vickers this job interview k. If he misses he's gonna go sell cars in tulsa but cari mic was had one of the best pre-seasons. The kicker has had in so the vikings trade for him and they trade a five. And you know. Eric decosta the gm of the ravens are remember talking about this once and he felt sick for vedic he really. Did you know he loved madman. Just couldn't believe it but when he got to. Minnesota could make a kick but harry. Hey ticket it a step farther here you know. We made of with all due respect to to people. I adore rick spielman. Our general manager. Mike zimmer our head coach up those guys we in twenty thousand nineteen second game of the year. We're at lambeau rookie from auburn daniel. Carlson who we draft. He misses three kicks. We tie the packers. When we outplayed him. He gets cut that weight while. Yeah look at him now with oakland slash. Las vegas raters so there. Are things like that to that. Really irked the fan base and You know this greg. Joseph man. I mean what a strong yet walk on winter for tennessee. Any missed some in the preseason right and he missed the one at arizona right. But you you. You're right about the kicking. The auditioning cold-blooded from fifty three since we go to overtime a couple from fifty two and arizona and then he misses from thirty seven. It's cliche as it may be peter and we try to avoid cliches but they're called cliches for a reason because they stand the test of time in terms of accuracy when it comes to kickers and confidence if they lose their confidence you might be a lot of trouble for the rest of the year. I've just seen it. I've just mean blair. Walsh missed that. Kick the prevailing against seattle in play offs. The prevailing emotion in the locker room was. Wow each of us just got cost fifty grand in playoff money that we would have gotten by going to play arizona. They were mad. It was vitriol and blair never balanced back. Never got back into the league. It says super sad story. Twenty twelve as a rookie out of georgia peter. Ten of ten from fifty plus. Nfl record so the the mental piece with the kickers. We can joke around. Women's kickers weird. They're different whatever. Use a kicker mentally. It's all over the last thing so me your thought on the fate of this year's minnesota vikings people who loved the vikings. And who will listen to this. Know that you'll shoot him straight. Tell me what will the end game be with these vikings. I thought they would win. Eleven games into the season was non-negotiable peter to lose at cincinnati. And i know they're better and they played the bear. Stop do recently. They are better. I've seen it alario jobe. What a wonderful free agent signing that was But still we played like rap. And we're going to win the game in overtime. If we don't fumble that arizona team might have a little house of cards to it. We'll see but we had a great chance to win that game. We're as good as almost any team in the nfl when it becomes cohesive So now a massive massive game against seattle. Russell wilson is seventy against us and mike has done a good job against russell. Every single. Game ewing an no three seventy five four zero russell against You have to win this game if you loses game. It has the potential spiral. And here's what because game number four are a week from sunday. The cleveland browns come to town. Now they're coached by kevin. Stefanski are probably my best friend. I've ever had in football. He was here fifteen years Kevin is even killed kevin and he's wonderful at what he does is gonna come in here.

"We're talking about about that. Botch call is is an like this too. Because i'm sure people take shots a you in the age of rage on social media I faced a lot of them last night. And this morning it's the uninformed and it's the truly dumb ones that they just they just like mosquitoes they just give me a little bit but i never respond so getting past. That is very easy at the end of the equation. I mean i've had local. Tv stations here in the twin cities be like. Can we bring a camera by the station and talk about this call. I'm like one. Well i mean that's where making this whole thing about me. I aft up a call. Okay i got a bay where i need to defend myself professionally. Which i don't wanna do it. If i'm gonna mess up a call like that once every twenty years. I'm pretty cool with that. But i love these players. I love these coaches. I love the kubiak. Clint kubiak our new offensive coordinator. I want them to win. So badly. That when i made that mistake and and messed up that call at the end of the game. It didn't really hit me until we were flying home that man. What the hell am. I doing guessing. I just never guessing so. That was the end of that. Now we play. We played like rapper. Large batches a game at cincinnati. We're in overtime. We're gonna win the game and alvin drops it and we're gonna win the game yet Sunday with joseph from thirty seven yards. What but what an unbelievable game. I mean now that was unbelievable football game where i wanted to like it. The players could see me despite the after call and despite my favorite team losing i wanted to go thank you. Thank you for that. Entertainment matt prater from sixty two in front of halftime. Or you getting. But just closing with tyler. He had ten rushing touchdowns last year. The first game of the year then he played p. carols team and he took a bad hip legal hit but a bag. Bad hit nearer show at one rushing touchdown the rest of the year he slight of frame. He's five ten. And and i you know. Running is a major part of his game and he's phenomenal but lacked ten slide and frame. If you're gonna put those hits on like i've seen you're going short career mark my words. Hey paul you know I thought last night. I'm sure you're in the air or in transit. But at the end of the sunday night i keep saying last night sunday night i thought at the end of the baltimore. Kansas city game. That obviously ended in a scintillating fashion. Exactly like the The game you were at baltimore wins. Thirty six thirty five in just You know it's an absolute total video postcard for why people love the nfl. And at the end of the game. Chris collins were said. And i quote our announcers. Allow the clamp. I would like the clap for that one. Wow i feel exactly the same way because at the end of that game i think a lot of times. We get so caught up in bitching and moaning about different parts of football about all this taunting penalty. It's a travesty. You know and you get so angry about it that you say okay. Wait a minute. Let's let's just think about the game. We just saw your. We can be ticked off about that. But let's think about it and at the end of that game so many things just hit me the end of the baltimore. Kansas city games so many things just hit me because you watch lamar jackson and sammy watkins with their helmets on jumping appear wedding on the field like ballerinas with their mouths wide open in pure unbridled joy. Yeah and then. You watch the kansas city players on the ground face buried in the turf after the fumble by clyde edwards hilar- and you basically say man there is. It's just like the abc wide world of sports the thrill of victory in the agony of defeat. And there's one other little point about that game the that i just love about football. I just love it. Gave the guy who made the play. Oh daffy away. A guy from penn state a pass rusher..

"Is mike white and the best thing i say about mike white is he is not a household name in his own household. He went to western. Kentucky is been in a couple of training camps the cowboys and the jets. But you know he's not an experienced player. he's twenty five years old. The new york jets needed to basically invoked the mercy rule on sunday against the patriots. Poll zach wilson out of a game. But can you really do that with a backup quarterback who really is not equipped to play in the nfl right now and my quite that situation aside. And i think that's a very good argument to make that after a day like that. Give the kit arrests for series two and let him sit down To me that the bigger part of backup quarterback situation. I think is a rookie quarterback that the number one thing you could have and this is this parallels a great play. Collar is a veteran in your room. So when you're in that quarterback meeting room and it's just you and the veteran quarterback that you can put your hair down a little bit and say holy shit. This is hard man. i mean. Help me out. Show me the way to have a veteran quarterback there to play that role. Just intangibly is massive for rookie quarterback. Look at what. Patrick mahomes got to do in kansas city. He had alex smith terrific person. Really really good quarterback who knew. Andy reed's offense. So zack has mike white. Who's been waived five or six times as never played in the nfl and he has mike. Leflore is an offensive coordinator for the very first time. So i mean say what you will about the jets trot out there in front of him out wide just monday through saturday. I would love for this kid to have better help behind the scenes as he tries to figure this out and get better through very tough time as we kind of expected it would be on the field. And you know paul. This is one of the issues. And i always say this agents. I think one of the smartest agents In recent years or one of the smartest agencies where the agents for Patrick mahomes before the twenty seventeen draft. Chris cabinet in leigh steinberg cabinet. And i i. Don't i don't know this but i think cabinet is more of the day to day hands on guy but but chris cabinet realized that He was going to try to do everything he can to get. Patrick mahomes to a great team with a great coaching staff. And obviously he can't control where patrick mahomes goes cave but he did understand that if there was any way that he could put. Patrick mahomes a positive view. In the eyes of the kansas city franchise. That was the smart way to go. And i really thought that mean that to me is an agent doing his client. You know a solid hit quite honestly where you're looking out for him and and look in the case of a guy like zach wilson. There was nothing at all that his age. brian april. Who's a very good agent. There is nothing that brian emerald could do. People at the top of the draft fell in love with zach wilson and his long term potential and really smart quarterback chris simms and a lot of other people. Tony romo they. Love zach wilson. The problem is and this is a huge problem is that it really doesn't matter as much. How great a player you are. I think it matters more where you go. And so look dan. Marino never won a super bowl but dan marino looking back was damn happy that he went twenty eighth overall in the first round almost four decades ago instead of going to a top team where he was going to languish in lose and the support around him wasn't great. That's why i think it is so important for zach wilson to have his josh mccown you know or his sort of mentor..

"He brought up hard knocks and its popularity and he said you know what the best thing for for hot hard knocks would probably be to have three or four years off from it because it's become so popular and become kind of similar with training camp. It's it's difficult. And i'm paraphrasing now. Fifteen years later but difficult to find a new way to tell that exact same story with ox and now all these years later. I'm sure see with a love. This the idea of making it new by having that kind of access behind the scenes. I know steve would have been in love with the idea. And as fans. I mean but with the media part aside just as fans to have that access behind the scenes during the season i think is really exciting and really fun. And whether they're a poor team that's unraveling or a really good team. That's putting the pieces back together. It'll be a great launch paul. Let's touch on our last team before we hit a bunch of topics around the nfl. The last team. I wanted to mention to you. Is the new york jets throw into which is not a surprise losing at carolina and losing to the patriots. You know they're nineteen they're too in nineteen against the patriots in the last decade. In those two wins they had to go to overtime to get both of them so basically the patriots are their daddies. But here's what bothered me about watching a lot of that game on sunday. That is that in the thirty fifth. Minute a game. Zack wilson through his fourth. Interception of the game. Now obviously you think in some ways over the years people have said well you know you. Just don't replace your starting quarterback. But i mean why. Why can't you pull the starting quarterback. He's at a bad day. I mean Vladimir trade iak or whatever. The russian goalie patrick rwanda. They he'd been pulled in games Sandy colfax got relieved by relief pitcher in and i mean great. Players get replaced all the time. And i think it's it's it is really ridiculous that the new york jets did not backup. Zach wilson this year with a veteran quarterback instead their backup quarterback they only have one other one on the active roster.

"Not lean on them and You know he was not really invasive their team rooms undoing and i think that's one of the things that that i like so far about what i've seen automatic rule of let's go to a couple of two teams that ban. I see some bad warning signs. And let's start with the indianapolis colts you know now that they have carson wentz injured with some ankle injury and we don't know at this moment. Is we tape this. What how long exactly he might miss or whether or gut it out this week and try to play in week three but tell me what you've seen out of the colts. How concerned would you be there in two right now the biggest concern to me and obviously carson wentz is a concern with the injury but if he's healthy that combo of carson and frank reich. I think that's going to be fun to watch and productive throughout the year. I'm concerned defensively. You look at these two games. And they played against very good quarterbacks and russell wilson matthew stafford but their efficiency level the way they're completing passes way downfield and not throwing interceptions. That's a real concern. And then one layer below that. Or i guess you can say above it the top one to receiver combo on both those teams. I see hawks in the rams so you have lock it cap in seattle woods and cup. They had been just killing that defense. So right efficient quarterbacks and a play called rather team with to say on saturday night you know if we play well our top two receivers will will be over two or three hundred yards in. Her quarterback will be super-efficient. They're achieving those goals really easily right now against the colts. Plenty of time to fix it but right now that that has to be a major area of concern the way the quarterbacks or thrown it downfield and their top weapons are having extremely good games. You know the other part of the colts. That is bothersome to me. Is and. I watched a lot of that game on sunday. Paul carson wentz got abused. He really got hit a lot and the offensive line is supposed to be a huge strength of this team now. Look there's no shame in getting hit around a lot by the los angeles rams you know first of all you've got double or triple eric. Donald you know that. But they've got nice. Defensive front sebastian. Joseph they nobody has heard of this guy he makes plays every week. But but i i just. I'm worried for the colts about their ability to protect and keep a quarterback upright and paul the one thing about the colts. I wrote my column. I'd love to hear your thoughts. Because as a former player you would know what this might be like. The colts have agreed to be the first team ever in the nfl to allow hard knocks to document. Its season now won't happen for two more months. It's not going to begin until mid november. But they will have their last nine weeks of the season documented with an nfl films crew. I should say for those who say. Oh my god. Nfl films are going to be swarming everywhere. There will be thirteen robotic cameras around their facility and at first now only one active camera and cameraman with a couple of producers and nfl. films people. So they're going to be many days or the players won't even see any presence from. Nfl films having said that man. The one bit of caution. I think paul is new magic. The colts as we sit here into what if they go down the toilet and this is the story of a team. that's been crushing disappointment. So two months from now it could really be problematic for the colts. I enjoyed what you wrote about the about. The colts agreed to be part of hard knocks in the season for the first time in peter my mind goes right of a conversation. I had with steve sable with the late great one of the all-time people let alone. What he did in the media world for the nfl but my first three years nfl network. Pete i worked out of nfl films. I was around steve a lot. And i remember one conversation had within the at a lunch were just out of nowhere..

"There's so much more good than bad. He's a nice quarterback but he's been stuck in that nice area and now you have this giant numbers being attached to giant wins and it's super early in the season with this is a quarterback. And because he's doing this his team is doing it as well. Not just godley numbers anyway. It's a big time. Plays in really big moments against quality. Brands in the nfl are leading to wins. And that's what feels a little different about his performance now as compared to the other years where it's been good but not great i i will. I'll give you my thought on car. And then i'll tell you why in my opinion necessarily different feeling raiders team. I think the big thing for car is that. I thought last year paul. The raiders tried to force henry rugs into a role that maybe he wasn't ready for. Okay i think henry rugs is not even though he was drafted the highest of any receiver in the draft. And if you're gonna do that you think he should play. Eighty five percents of the snaps. He probably is not fit Physically i don't mean in a cardio way but i just mean. His body is kind of like marquees brown to some degree. He's a little bit better put together. But now if if you if you look at henry rugs. I'd be happy. If i were the raiders if he played thirty snaps game k. If if he's not gonna play sixty five snaps a game. That is okay with me. Don't force you already have daring waller and and to a lesser degree foster monroe at tight end. You've got brian edwards hunter renfro. You've got guys who can take that larger role us henry rogues intelligently and i think. That's what the raiders are really starting to do but in my opinion i think that the thing that impresses me most about the raiders. Is that last year. You really wonder. Do they have a front seven. That can put enough pressure on quarterbacks without having to a lot and they have shown me so far that they really really do I had a stat from pro football. Focus in my columnists week. Basically that the raiders have brought significant pressure on lamar jackson and ben rothlisberger on thirty eight percent of their past drops this year..

SpaceX makes history with successful rocket launch
"Let's talk about space we lost some will not I don't and and and a lot of firsts were involved in this first of all it it was a private space company SpaceX which started in I think two thousand two and Eli must company a private space rocket company they worked along side NASA they pick they basically SpaceX did the whole thing from start to finish they designed the rocket they designed the capsule and and these guys launch astronauts Doug Hurley and Bob bank in Bob and Doug they kept calling him on the launch I was watching the live feed and I could not not think about the SCTV scary for the movie strange brew with Bob and Doug McKenzie I can't want to calm hoser it it is I don't I I love this kind of stuff I think it's absolutely fascinating and if if you're like why are people making such a big deal about this because it was everywhere a bunch of people watched it everybody was talking about it I'm it it is it is really quite a remarkable thing and you've got these two seasoned astronauts right these guys are like that the commander dog is a marine pilot he's been to space a couple times this guy has flown he's docked with the international space station on his own he's manual controls that is a nearly impossible task it's not tried searching for I did I'll try searching for it on link then you will have a hard time finding this guy to hire they hired like one of the white people in the planet is the only got this particular job yeah in or off the planet he's the only guy but but this time they used computers they launching these if you saw any of the video it's this beautifully sleek cushioned capsule that they're in they have and I can explain why mom was a who owns SpaceX yon yep and if you look at the inside the capsule looks like it really does Tesla's known for having a steering wheel in a TV essential hand side and end up breaking out into the Aggie can't look out of gas pedal and accelerator pedal and that's what the inside of this without the accelerator pedal that's what the inside of this looked like it was all touch screen also not like what you the the the NASA space capsule that you have come to admire and from from movies it doesn't look like anything like that anymore it looks much much more modern it is what the future space flight in one of the significant things here is this is the the beginning of the privatization of space flight right the the way it used to work was was it's not like that there have been private contractors building the stuff if you work at Boeing you know Boeing's history of building major components of every space mission I'm going it was front center it doesn't really happen without bowing right and other American contractors who do who developed a high tech but it was all in the auspices in the funding of NASA this is different NASA was involved but essentially NASA was the contractor helping these guys get to outer space it becomes it's a very interesting reversal of roles and if you don't think that that Jeff Basil's and his blue origin was sitting out there both rooting for and against the wasn't reading I think Francis aster but he certainly wasn't rooting for massive success unless he feels like Hey there's it's a big universe there's room out there for all of us it was very very interesting to think about I mean for you one must love him or hate him in in you probably do both on the on any given month given the way the guy behaves getting a space program off the ground in from two thousand when it was it was too two thousand ten till now is a standing yeah without denial of land over rockets and you know it wise it really is kind of remarkable and this is if you or anything of a space junkie and I am this was a real historic day and worth seeing and on top of that like we talked about once before on the show there is a simulator where you can actually try to really high it's it's similar to what you can try and doc this thing on your own that is it marks up the similar it simulated that they used I don't know how many times I ended up into deep space on saleable or brand right into the space station because I couldn't get it done they used to have like a a simulator in Cape Canaveral in Florida and I went down there with my dad when I was a kid and he's a pilot he he's a commercial if he's one big jets and everything he gets in the similar I barely I mean he didn't he didn't do it he couldn't actually do but got really really close and he's like man that was like the hardest thing I've ever done right the space shuttle used to have I this is my favorite part of storage space shuttle used to have two thousand manual switches right and you're when you're an astronaut you flick and then you're doing all the stuff turn these this this has twenty from two thousand to twenty everything is touch screen and these guys Bob especially the commander he's an old school marine and at first he was like I don't know about all this because when you're wearing the big astronaut gloves and you're flipping switches and it's real important that those switches get flipped there's you know when you physically flipped it or toggled it or whatever it is that right with a touch screen he's he's like that took a lot of getting used to so the SpaceX people are like we got you Bob and they created like a like a little like bloom like when you touch the screen you see some sort of a visual indication well it is actually touched it's the whole thing in your phone we're so between the two at the haptic response to refer to it as when your phone buzzes or clicks right when you do that kind of stuff the reason that they keep the shutter noise in a camera what they don't need the center noise in the camera anyway all of these things are because we're so a **** waited to flicking that switch to feeling that resistance some sort of physical contact with it and so they just dumbing it up for our own company even though it's not necessary that's exactly what they did here everybody knows Houston as in Houston you have a problem mission control this is as Mike said not a NASA mission so mission control you with they heard they heard voices from Hawthorne California that's for SpaceX is based out of so this is just changing changing the whole game yeah I mean but you know Hawthorne has its own problems so I suppose in some point locally we never get to that point and it and I think that that's really what now so it was not built solely to make space a government enterprise but to alternately allow this sort of building to happen and I think NASA's done a really remarkable job of pivoting to what the future is in becoming sort of this agency to essentially becoming an incubator for private space right and that is actually not a dumb thing for for them to do and and now we have four companies and more in other countries that are actually buying for this for this sort of dominance it's a pretty interesting thing it really is it's one of those many things like we talk about in Seattle that underscores what it what it what a real setback it feels like for Paul Allen to have died because he was also involved in a project out of Syria and so a lot of a lot of effort now in the private sector of doing this thing but this thing being successful is good news for everybody including other companies that are competing with them because we needed to see it happen from a private company and I certainly hope that this is just the beginning of a really really interesting future

The Father of Personal Computers
"This bonus episode we wanted to take a closer look at the man who is sometimes referred to as the father of personal computing Ed Roberts the founder of mitts and creator of the altar. Here's forrest mims. The third who co-founded admits at Ed's kitchen table in Albuquerque New Mexico back in nineteen sixty nine. It was one of the hardest working guys. I know we go to a meeting at Ed's house and we had to wait and wait and wait. Why is that. Because he's taking a nap 'cause he hasn't slept in two days so I think we got to snap. Then we have our meetings. We'd sit in his garage building stuff that we're trying to sell. This is before the computer days selling. You know the building a model rocket stuff and all that Watching Mash on television and Star Trek. Just having a good old time doing that a few years later Roberts came up with the idea to build a mail order. Computer Kit for hobbyists marketed. Through Popular Electronics magazine that microcomputer was to be called the al-Tair Eighty eight hundred and the advertisement caught the attention of a young Paul Allen and Bill Gates who soon pitch there basic software to ED? Ed invited Paul Allen to New Mexico to try out. Paul Allen gets to Albuquerque and ED meets him at the airport. He's looking for somebody wearing a suit and tie and all that but ed was air wearing blue jeans and just like we all did. Anyway they get together and ED drives a motel and Paul doesn't have enough money to pay the bill so it gives. It didn't have any money so he gave his credit card and Paul's embarrassed about that or they went to see out there. I hadn't loaded the bootstrap loader yet and they typed in two plus two in the computer said four and they were just ecstatic that it worked that shield that basic worked. He hired Paul Allen on the spot to be his vice president for software development and But Gates went back to Harvard. His Dad wanted him to become an attorney. But Paul Allen Convinced Gates to come back that the summer of seventy five and work on the work with basic the al-Tair along with Allen and gates basic interpreter a smash but the relationship between Roberts in the young duo soured when they wanted to break out on their own got severe arguments at work when gates an Allen went on their own with Microsoft That's what really upset. Add much more so than anything else and because they wanted to sell basic to other companies in other words. Competitors of Ed's like processor technology and Radio Shack was secretly developing the trs. Eighty and so on. So there was a battle over that well it had to go to arbitration because they're Bill Gates had written a contract with Ed while he was still working at a mets in his contract said that midst to use its best efforts to to promote basic and the arbitrary arbiter decided. Well it wasn't using his best efforts to promote basic and that gave all rights back to Microsoft the contract they had with. It wasn't really fair because Ed never read the contract. He told them. I trust you guys and signed it. Once that trust was broken Roberts was turned off by the whole industry at this point Z. Ed Roberts is A. He's an innovative guy but he doesn't like dealing with office problems and office people complaining about each other. You know the standard thing that happens in big offices he was flooded with that for example. Mci was selling computer. That looked just like the Altair. It was almost a carbon copy. He didn't like that kind of competition. He felt it was unfair. All of that was getting him down and he finally decided to sell the company. He sold it to per tech a manufacturer of hard drives. So what did Roberts do next retire? Become a full time. Hobbyist Roberts was only thirty six years old and still had a lot of Gusto in them but he was also a little homesick for the simpler life. He grew up with so he finally decided. I've had it. I'M GONNA go back to Georgia. I'm going to buy a farm. I've already made my million dollars. I've already got my airplane now. I've learned to be a pilot and I'm going to become a medical doctor. The medical doctor thing always bothered me. I thought to myself is not GONNA do that. Well I did do that. He went to medical school. He became a small town doctor. Who really cared for people? Decades later in two thousand six Dr Roberts received an invitation to go back to Albuquerque New Mexico. Museum of Natural History and science was opening a new startup exhibit on the personal computer revolution and its roots in the region. The exhibit was largely funded by Paul Allen. Ed was invited to the grand opening. Didn't WanNa go and he kept saying I don't want anything to do with it. You know nobody knows him. I don't WanNa go. I kept telling him F. You've gotta you've gotta go. He decided to go. And so we were there at the dedication of a plaque in front of the old midst building and dedicated that and that was a big deal in Paula's air and all that when Paul is getting ready to leave that exhibit his he walks over and Paul comes to tell us goodbye. Goodbye wishing well and he said if there's anything I can do to help you let me know meant helping him in his medical practice. And so I'll I'll I'll let you know he says after all. You still owe me for that hotel bill that I had to pay for you and your ride admits back in the early days and they just laughed and all that Ed was getting past all of that that rivalry

Personal Computers: the Dawn of a Revolution
"It's a cold and frosty December afternoon. In nineteen seventy four. Two young men are walking across Harvard Square. They're probably having a conversation about their favorite subject. Computers as the men pass a newsstand. They see the blue lettering of popular electronics peeking. Out from the other magazines they stop and check it out on. The cover is a photo of a metal box with a dozen switches in small lights on the front. The headline reads world's first mini computer. Kid All tear eight hundred. The box doesn't look like much barebones really meant for hobbyists and tinkerers but it looked like something more to these two guys. It looked like the machine. They'd been waiting for because they have the perfect software for this new hardware at the same time. They were a little freaked out would if others had the same idea they did. And we're working on it already. The had to move fast. The names of those two command line. Heroes Bill Gates and Paul Allen. Little did they know the altar eighty eight hundred would be the gateway machine to a personal computer revolution. It would change their lives and ours forever. New Machine would do one other thing. It would kick start the debate between free and proprietary software with the help of a mysterious stay tuned in episode one of our season on hardware. We learned about many computers like the Eagle at an episode two. We heard about the ged to twenty five mainframe but both those machines were still limited by their size cost and processing power. This episode is about everything. Shrunk down to the micro computer and it all starts with the diy kits that were mailed to hobbyists like the one that grace that fateful cover of. Popular Electronics. Those simple kits inspired the revolutionary idea. That computers could sit inside your own home. That computers were yours to own an experimental. It was the birth of a new mass market piece of hardware. The personal computer.

Inside Bill Gates' Brain with Davis Guggenheim
"Bills Brain three part documentary. Nfl I just watched it this week. Tell me how this project got started because you have you got a lot of access to gates and it's obviously Dan netflix unusual structure. You know three one hour episodes. Don't tell me how it came together so I was making the film waiting for Superman and we were almost it's done but it felt like he was missing. Voice and waiting for Superman was about public education's like how does this sort of failure of our public schools effect business and you know what better the thing to talk about. Someone who's in Silicon Valley or at least the business of Silicon Valley. He's obviously in Seattle but what does that do to growing the best business in in in America. How do you find talented educated. People had at his failure of our schools of some of our schools. I should say many are do really well but how does that effect are growing economy in in in the tech business. So I went up an interview bill. He was so great and so surprising that that I was like wait a minute this this person the needs to be reconsidered a because to give us the backstory. I was a I got a Macintosh nineteen eighty-four. It was the first person in my dorm Brown to get one. I think it was like ten had arrived at Brown in everyone of my floor huddled around this magical computer so I was a Mac. I was an apple guy and I always thought Steve Jobs is cool and Microsoft was just like for the business people and so I sort of held Bill Gates in my mind at arm's length that was like he just business guy. Maybe he's a monopolist. Maybe he's not but but you know I like. I like Mac and so what I finally met him. I was like wow. There's something he's doing right now. That needs to be understood. He is he's really changed his public image and I don't WanNa get into into that part of it because the weight inside bills brain is structured literally inside of every episode. It's almost like a thriller of the project that the bill and Melinda Gates Foundation is doing doing whether that's toilets or nuclear energy or vaccinations then there's like the history which is what most people kind of assume you're going to get right. We're GONNA GONNA tell the story Bill Gates from start to now but there's this like thriller component of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation happening inside of it. How did you decide to like like musicnet structure. Go started filming and I actually got lost. I don't know how to make this because a lot of the work. They're doing a super complex. In also initially dramatically. It's not just add water in the story tells itself right and so I was experimenting with this kind of way of cutting back and forth between his biography in the work that he's doing and the first time it worked was when I in its in episode two I think is when he's trying to figure out why cases of polio keep popping up all over Nigeria in Afghanistan Pakistan and why past efforts was it failed and how he used sort of his brain had he delvin to sort of like crack that because people been trying for years they thought they were getting close and then it doesn't work it. Would I thought I'd do is show bill in the early days in highschool cracking the class schedule. It's sort of a famous story where his private private school asbill a sophomore. I think ask him when he's a software and then he does it in his junior senior year but they say you're. You're good at this computer thing. You know there's a famous terminal school only one terminal any school in State of Washington say. Hey you're good at this coatings and can you code the class schedule at lakeside aside and so he and Paul Allen Staple night figure out how you know because his lakeside had merged with girls school so they had all these different classrooms different for campuses and Bill Paul us sort of their brains and they're sort of algorithms to cracks in the same way he cracks the algorithm or tries to crack the algorithm for a radical polio he did things like digital mapping in predictive analysis on where cases of polio would show up so the story telling the whole story retelling for all three episodes follows that one example where we cut back and forth between something some way in which his brain worked or or something revealed in his character actor is historical story with what he's doing now to reveal how his brain works and how you know how he solves problems so you obviously got all this access testable to Melinda. You got a bunch of archival footage. I guess you would call it of them. When they were young when they were dating there's Video Ville hugging kids when they're babies as which broke me like you don't ever see that side of him. How did you go about getting access to build. The product was kind of the condition that I make for any movie. When I flew complained to commit to page talk him into doing it might get loud. It was like if we're if we're GONNA do this. You got to open up to me. I won't ask any questions to ask. I will put everything on the table because that's you know that's what if you're going to do a movie forgot to go make make that effort you open yourself up and the same thing. I did with bill and I have to save all the people I've ever made a movie about. He was the most open in the least concerned about Oh. Don't go there. Don't get this right. I mean I went. I went right into you. You know the depositions for the case. You know there's pretty harsh stuff in there about how the world sees him and I put all if even if you go and watch the trailer of the trailer in the opening of the move of the series is is this guy a good guy bad guy you know one. One voice calls him the devil I really wanted to say I want to put it all table. Say who you know. Let's let's put everything on the table and let's let's consider this man. Today did bill get any edit control. Do they get to say they didn't want anything in there. Now what I do is for every movie all when I get a cut that I like I'll go show it to people so I showed to Jimmy page edge or anyone else or Bano or Malala just because I wanna make sure that I didn't miss something or it didn't miss categorize something and often in every case you sort of. They say oh well. You know what there's another another piece that story that entail you and usually gets better but nothing was. I didn't take anything out that I didn't WANNA put in so there's sequence your time in the antitrust apiece. There's a sequence where you ask him if he was arrogant in step position. This is great because you know. This is a heavy topic now. We actually talked about it on this podcast. All the time like like are these companies to powerful should get broken up. Microsoft was arguably the first the current president of Microsoft Brad Smith. He's just read a book about basically asking being the government to regulate tech companies. It's very interesting but it he bill gates was the first as you note in the documentary. He's he stepped back from the operations operations of Microsoft to handle trial he gave this famously bad deposition and you ask him if he's arrogant and he he was like well look when you're a twenty year old billionaire. Maher sometimes when when you were getting answer. Did you sense that he was that he was shading or was he just telling you what he thought. Who's absolutely shading you. You Watch it. What's what's fun about watching. The movie and we put the full answer in is that he didn't WanNa say he was hacked arrogant. The Fun thing about making a movie is one of my agree. Teachers taught me this about storytelling is that you know that the filmmakers job is to plus two. The audience's job is for that sounds like a really pretentious film film school way of saying it but the idea is I ask if he was arrogant. He gives an answer. It's up to you and the audience to say and decide whether he's arrogant or not so I like to put that in there and let the audience decide for himself or herself. Do you think that arrogance however he wants to think of it is an asset to him and his current work. That's a good question. That's a really good question. I'd have to let him answer that. I mean I think intense focus. I think being very certain I think maybe with a touch arrogance. Get to this place where you're cutting through a Lotta bullshit so that is an let me let me qualify this answer by this is my answer not his answer but I do think that affect of people in the world have to cut through bullshit they have to cut through group think in their own group in their own company they have to cut through how the bureaucratic nature of a big company slows things down so if arrogance Y- like five percent or twelve percent arrogance and certainty and bull headedness it is effective. I wouldn't mind that I think sometimes a director of documentaries has to be bull headed and arrogant sometimes but then you have to sort of you know put guardrails ells on yourself. You have to have a few on that so that you don't go too far and I think clearly see footage in there. From the early days of Microsoft will they'll clearly went too far. Your gifts and that's actually the one the one piece of documentary that I I don't know how interesting it would be to everybody. I kind of understand why it wouldn't be there but it's very interesting to me is Microsoft soft was a ruthless company with gates at the helm and you you wave at it a few times right by their competitors date they crush them obviously netscape and eh interest trials there but there was lots and lots of other stuff they did to ruthlessly destroy their competitors along the way and that was all bill. was there a moment where like. I need to focus on that that stuff more or say. I just need to say at once and move on. There's other stuff. That's more important you I mean the the the the focus of the series is really not about that. I put enough enough in there to acknowledge it and say this happened but it wasn't an expose of the tactics. Microsoft in this period of time and so did just like the movie doesn't get into who all the details of the entrust case it doesn't get into all the details of why bill thinks that they were maligned nor does it get into all the details of why people think Microsoft is wrong. That wasn't the focus of the series. The focus of the series is a character study of a guy in in what is he doing with his life.

Let's begin with the euro, Brian because we were down quite a bit of New York trading at one point we actually dipped below a buck thirteen that in afternoon trading, which coincided with a report on German or the German government, reducing its twenty nineteen GDP forecast to one percent earlier in the day ECB president Mario Draghi intensified.

Doug, gambit of a mixed bag in this part of the world, the dole is continuing its slide. Seventy eighty one the six high by one percent, but I wanna tell you about one of the worst performance today.

The outlines of some sort of a compromise that would continue that would open up the government for three weeks contain some semblance of border security. And the president says he is open that it will compromise reasonable agreement. I would support again, maybe a pro rated deal on a Wally says, but that a wall has to be part of it earlier in the day Chuck Schumer said he needs to know that the president will sign something that they negotiate last month.
