"seven trillion dollars" Discussed on Radio Boston

"This is radio boston. I'm john during a lot going on in the nation's capital this week yesterday the senate passed a roughly three point five trillion dollar spending. Plan that on the of passing a one point. Two trillion. Dollar bipartisan infrastructure. Plan on tuesday. And it's still not a done deal not even close right now. The larger spending package is just a big number list of priorities and lawmakers now have to get to work on the long process of actually drafting the legislation that would determine how the money gets spent. Meanwhile the house isn't ready to vote on the smaller. Bipartisan transportation infrastructure bill. That's the one point two trillion dollar one progressives in the party wanna flesh out the bigger package i and it could be hard to keep all the coalition's in place through all of that. So four point seven trillion dollars. Total hang in the political balance. Will it make it across the finish line. We checked in with massachusetts senator markey at market. Just last hour to see if he could help shed some light on all of this and i started. By noting to big packages totaling. Several trillion dollars passed in the senate. That's a lot in one week. It was a lot but it didn't just happen overnight. Like many things if it built actually from last year on the infrastructure bill where trump kept having infrastructure week after infrastructure week and i serve on the transportation and infrastructure committee so we had finished a big part of the bipartisan bill. Last year we brought it forward And we were able to bring in some republicans who said that they would defy. The trump tweets In work on a bipartisan bill. And the big news from massachusetts is. We have four billion dollars. Highways in the bipartisan bill. We have a billion dollars for bridges to be repaired. We have two point five billion for the nba and other transit We have Money for electric vehicles will have hundreds of millions of dollars for broadband deployment inside of massachusetts inside of that legislation And there's also money for electric vehicles. There's money for electric buses in their for massachusetts. And that's before we reach the three point five trillion dollars of bill. That's gonna be all democratic senator. Let's start with the eight billion that comes out of the smaller. Bipartisan one. Point two billion dollar kinds of kind of roads and bridges package. How do you get that one over the finish line especially given that there is argument within the democratic party on whether or not the three point five trillion dollar larger spending package needs to get legislated. I well we're going to be sending both of these bills overa- and it's a combined four point Seven trillion dollars one point two trillion and the bipartisan bill. Three point five trillion in the democrat. Only bill and what nancy pelosi has made very clear. Is that neither. Bill will move until both bills move over there..

"A lot of companies that you can get your exposure to all right andrew so looking at foe what are some of the big holdings in ufo. Certainly so we have companies like virgin galactic. Max are just recently in the most recent up Rebalance added company. Mda to the bond You also have a lot of satellite operators and providers launch companies and even some of your diversified aerospace and defense names that are major players in the space industry. Like your goings. And you're lucky. So if i look at the. Etf over the last year. It's just shot up from twenty to thirty almost thirty two. You're looking at fifty percent gain the last twelve months. What's your expectation going out a year or two. I can't really make i'm not allowed to make projection. But will we will we can look at is. There's various investment banks research. Houses have all started building focused. Space analyst teams and companies like morgan stanley are predicting that the space industry could be over a trillion dollars by twenty forty bank of america even pointing that the space could Economy could be roughly two point seven trillion dollars by twenty forty five and as of the most recent space record numbers in two thousand nineteen industry is only at about four hundred twenty four billion so You know a lot of analysts are pointing to broadband internet and communications really driving that growth over the next several years andrew. While we have you. I have to ask you about. Ufo's i've generally not been a believer in ufo's but there's been a lot of military footage. I i'm not sure if it's air force or navy pilots documentaries lately. Yeah and i understand. There's some pentagon report out there. Giving us what you know about that. Yes we're we're waiting for the The the public release there have been several individuals and entities that have been Given copies of the report already but this was something that was passed in a coronavirus relief. Plan that this report would need to come out and essentially From what we're hearing that's been leaked already It discusses hundreds of Confirmed reports of having identified Ufo's or as they're now calling them uap's and we don't know what they are. Fill although we might not have an answer saying that. Okay these crafts that we can't identify or understand our foreign adversaries or other worldly If it's terrifying from from both standpoints one that you're or adversaries could be a hundred years ahead of us technologically or the other end that These are otherworldly. you'll cry. you can't even understand. Oh i see so. You're saying it's possible that rather than aliens. These are earthly foreign adversaries. Yes because i you know any logical person who thinks about it. Rationally has to assume there are many other life forms in the universe right. I mean it's very large and and it's very unlikely that we happen to be on the leading edge of life. Intelligence right yeah. It's it's amazing to think that you always there were other countries that were advanced enough to come up with these technologies that defy you'll our understanding of physics You know that they've just been sitting on these technologies and not using them for other purposes so you think that there could be other technologies that maybe you were. You're not far away from being able to understand or potentially harness and thinking about how the active they have You know human space Desires as well as just you know what we can learn from. You'll others out there. That might be a lot smarter than we are. So they're the fact that our government can't rule that out. I think you'd potentially what could be the big takeaway from. Yeah if if there's technology coming from other countries on earth that is slightly terrifying and we don't know about it. But paul sweeney. Don't you have to assume in you know galaxy that a universe that goes out thirteen billion light years that one of the i don't know how many millions of other planets there are. How many millions of other solar systems there are on on at least one of those most likely thousands of life forms have developed. I'm big star trek fan. I go way back to the original star trek. So yes is my answer but I haven't really seen any evidence but this is this new stuff that we're seeing just recently from some of these military aircraft are are very interesting to be interesting to see what kind of conclusion that pentagon comes up with andrew. I mean when you have all this talk about potential. Ufo's is that good for the space. Business i certainly think so. You know if you look at it you our ability to learn from whatever. These technologies are to advance us. You know extremely quickly if we're able to figure out how to reverse engineer some of this and from your defense standpoint You've got to think that there's a. There's a good chance that we could see more government military expenditures towards space whether it's trying to figure out how to create these technologies ourselves or whether it's just tracking identifying cataloging and trying to understand where these crafts that are moving you'll within our own airspace. So this is a national defense issue as well as one that could provide. Opportunities is is the space force andrew. Still a thing. I know you spent a lot of time. Thinking about. This is still a thing absolutely. And we're spending going towards space force and that's a growing branch of our military sweet off. At first. i thought it was just like what what is this. You know can't the air force discontinued. But maybe maybe they're onto something. When are we going to see this report. Officially released it was supposed to be released. Actually today And now they're saying that it could be released by the end of the month. So keep your eyes peeled. This is something that we're we're certainly looking forward to. Its release them. Added a risk exposure to see your Because of potential you. apn ufo. Alright well this cool stuff. Have you back on andrew shannon. He's a chief executive officer for procure.

"seven trillion dollars" Discussed on The Young Turks

"If you watch the video and didn't feel absolute doom You're not paying attention to what's going down in politics Because what he's referring to there regarding bipartisanship is all about working with the party that democrats described as a massive threat to this country. They campaigned against republicans. As if they are the worst the worst people who pose a threat to all of us which actually in a lot of ways i agree with but then they turn around and talk about the importance of bipartisanship. No how 'bout representing what the majority of american voters want. Okay never mind. The democratic voters who showed up turned up and voted for biden and also the two other democratic candidates in the for senate runoff races in georgia. How about how about ignoring the obstructionist right wing in congress and actually delivering to the republican voters who find your infrastructure bill your original infrastructure. Bill incredibly popular. It's not just democrats it's not just independents. Republicans as well and for some reason we keep hearing from democrats that we need to capitulate to the very individuals that they described as a massive threat to our lives during the last election. It's ridiculous yeah. I mean so. There are a lot of scenarios about what could play out here right. And you know the i if things is you. Know biden has through his entire career. Faddish is the senate and senate process which includes bipartisanship. And that's also why he is not pushing hard to end the filibuster while he's still kind of virtue signaling. I hate to use that term but democrats fundraise all the time off of gun violence and off of police brutality. And you know biden saying he's gonna do do anything by executive order. Okay well then you need to pass legislation that can pass through the sixty vote filibuster and so if you're not addressing that then i don't really wanna hear anything about gun control or climate change or anything like that but this you can pass be a fifty votes via the reconciliation process because it pertains to the budget infrastructure and yet biden seems to be going through this entirely unnecessary process where he is just you saying that. We should do a bipartisan. While why i mean. I don't get it i don't get it whatsoever but the point jesus my mom's calling me the point is that the point is that i mean the there is potentially some sort of plan in place right pelosi saying that. She's not going to vote on this. Bipartisan bill unless the there are two. Bill's bipartisan bill. And the reconciliation. Bill unless they both passed the senate and biding saying the same thing and the reconciliation. Bill would contain climate proposals right. I mean i don't trust them. That's the problem right. That were the case if that were the case. They're gonna do two bills one and they're just going to hand handle infrastructure through Through the bipartisan process. And then do a separate reconciliation bill. I'm like okay great. Then we have two bills. But i don't believe you. I believe that they will eventually as their way cave. And then they'll have one bill yup and the one thing that's really saving them from themselves. Here's that mitch. Mcconnell is an obstructionist and he is probably if biden signs onto something not going to say yes to it just because by onto it. So let's unpack everything. That's going on. Because i agree with your analysis and certainly with the part where you're skeptical of the democrats actually passing A second bill through reconciliation. So i what were the concessions Everything basically we heard republican lawmakers would agree to is what they're going to get Everything in regard to taxes remains unclear because remember There's been a lot of debate about the so-called pay fors republican lawmakers want put the onus on american workers to essentially increase our gas tax. And make sure that You know that regressive taxes implemented so corporations and the wealthy don't have to increase their taxes biden says that he will not under any circumstance sign onto that so even today with this announcement of a bipartisan agreement. We still don't know what they have agreed to. In regard to the pay fors so there's that also remember biden had called a for quite a bit of funding for this infrastructure. Bill to the tune of one point seven trillion dollars Well the pared-down down. Plan the bipartisan agreement. With five hundred fifty nine billion in new spending has rare. Bipartisan backing and could open the door to the president's more sweeping four trillion dollar proposals later on this is according to the associated press. The senators have struggled over how to pay for the new spending but left for the white house With a sense of confidence so that should be reassuring to you all right. They left the white house with a sense of confidence that they'll figure it out to me. That is a foreshadowing of regressive taxation to come because there's no circumstance under which ten republican senators would sign onto legislation that would increase taxes on the rich so. I'm actually skeptical that this a bipartisan agreement is actually going to go through then you get to the second part of it which is all right. Well we've we've made all these concessions to republican obstructionists in the infrastructure. Bill but what we're gonna do is we're going to pass all of our other priorities through a second bill and we'll do it the reconciliation which doesn't require sixty senators To vote in favor of it we can do it. The simple majority well. Here's what pelosi says. Pelosi on thursday welcomed. The bipartisan package. But she warned that it must be paired with the president's big goals now being prepared by congress under a separate so-called budget reconciliation process and then She was quoted as saying this is important during gonna be a bipartisan. Bill without a reconciliation. Bill and biden said something very similar. I expect that in the coming months this summer before. The fiscal year is over. That we will have voted on this bill. The infrastructure bill and well as well as voted on the budget resolution But if only one comes to me this is the only one that comes to me. I'm not gonna sign it. it's in tandem. He's making it very clear that he needs to have both bills done. Simultaneously one through a bipartisan vote. Allegedly the other reconciliation which will include things like childcare. Free public college The human infrastructure components of his original proposal that was rejected by republicans but in order for that to pass the reconciliation. Emma wouldn't that mean that we would run into the same issues. We ran into with cinema and mansion. Not wanting to support the bill. Because it's not bipartisan. Enough and i'm talking about the second bill. Yeah and the second bill is the one. That's the most likely to be act because as what people don't realize is that as time passes these things get less likely to pass because we are getting closer and closer to the twenty twenty two midterms and these house. These representatives and the senators are less likely to take tough votes so that you know we don't have all the time in the world here and by the way a fifty fifty split in the senate. There are very old senators. And i'm not being morbid here. Somebody could pass away and it's not a given that they're gonna have this fifty fifty split so i mean there..

"Is your politico playbook daily briefing. We're learning that. The gop is considering sending another infrastructure counter proposal to the white house. That's after president. Joe biden and senator shelley moore capito the lead. Gop negotiator on the issue matt for a one on one yesterday. Their public statements were planned. But here's what we were able to learn about what happened behind closed doors. After sitting down with biden in the oval office capital briefed the other five senate republicans in her negotiating group. That's john grasso. Reut blunt mike. Crepeau pat toomey and roger wicker and republicans weren't happy with what she had to say telling them. Biden wants one trillion dollars in new spending. If you're new here there's been a big debate about how much of the republican offers have been taken up by baseline spending that spending that would already occur if nothing changed and kern policy stayed the same but republicans say only a few weeks ago biden told gop negotiators that baseline spending could go towards meeting his goal of a one trillion dollar package. The latest republican offer by the way it's nowhere near a trillion dollars in new spending with an overall price tag nine hundred twenty eight billion dollars. Two hundred fifty. Seven billion dollars of which count as new spending. Meanwhile the last number of the white house had was one point seven trillion dollars so now. The gop is considering sending another counter offer to the white house as soon as friday when capital is scheduled to meet with biden. Again this time probably by phone but nothing is set in stone capital briefed her co negotiators last night. The group didn't reach a final decision about where to from here partly because we're hearing they're starting to feel discouraged one source put it like this quote. I have a hard time seeing this go ahead. because republicans plans always have baseline included. I don't think senate. Republicans are interested in one trillion dollars in new spending or changing the tax cuts or of raising other taxes. And that's been clear from day one. They added quote. It's a great dance but at some point than music is going.

Yes which is potentially eliminated altogether making obsolete if not at least shrink it to the smallest possible size than it could be. I'm certain this is why the government is becoming more totalitarian. Is they know that. The dollar is not in a good position like twenty seven trillion dollars and counting of debt. You know and we've got these wars that we can't maintain we've got china whose experimenting with their own digital currency were behind them like america is no longer at the forefront and so they're getting desperate and you know something i wanted to add is you're talking about being under reported for our listening audience if you go. Shires forums dot shire society dot com. There is a actually ridley. Bitcoin gandhi Actually put up a list of crypto currency related Websites of various kinds of news reporting places where you can write to them at those at the email addresses that he has listed and tell them to look out for the crypto six do stories on the crypto six. Let's get the word out there. In the crypto sphere nice Let's go to your calls and thoughts. Let's go to greg in new york greg. You're on free talk live. Hi everyone in a while. is your friendly. last libertarian. calling from new york city isn't an oxymoron left libertarian. I don't know i like. I like when people differentiate between left and right libertarian jumbo shrimp intelligence not at off the original libertarians in the nineteenth century. Mostly i'm the less you okay. But isn't that more classical liberal than it is left as we now know. The malthouse throwing anarchists they. Yeah we we had to coop term because classic 'cause liberal was co opted by the left brian. Okay well what's on your mind tonight. I wanted to bring my perspective about alon. Must and the whole twitter thing and the whole thing about Crypto currencies going down because china's cracking down mostly about elon. Musk so if you think about it. It's very a very comedy. Capitalism to have power concentrated in one person or people twitter is privately owned. it's a privately owned platform and the first celebrity that Got a million followers. I remember with ashton kutcher and you know having a lot of followers is a big form of capital. You can turn it into a lot of other capital you can for example Chill different product Or you can You know endorse You could also do what he does. Which is if you have all these followers and he tweeted on the followers were go through the who the markets and they'll buy or sell whatever you're based on what you're saying in the in the radio business. They used to call it a bomb. Remember what it is but like a popular radio. Host would get olives listeners to go to a certain website or to donate to a certain cause and they called it a radio bosch. They had some term for it exactly exactly so basically Me you're asking -tarian one big thing like that i do is i. Don't just criticize the government. I also criticized large corporation and other concentrations of power. So you know people decide on twitter who deprive foreign boot nazi platform They can do that because if they built it. They own it. That's the cornerstone of capitalism. So i you know. I can look at cap. Wasn't say that sometimes it leads to very centralized system and you know i like to decentralize things. I'd love to see an open source alternatives. Just like you guys are using matrix and you're using you know mastodon using this scored or whatever because maybe they will defy from you so you know. There's a lot to be said for completely free Permission list innovation like the web. We could -pedia current surge. Exactly so i'm just saying that you know. It seems to be that on twitter. If donald trump isn't going to be the king then you need a new king and that's much for the time being But it's all because everything is so centralized because twitter has the profit motive that they need they love to have these kinds of things because that's what brings them revenue i mean. Capitalism can also lead to centralize justin like twitter facebook the big tax. It's not an accident. It's not necessarily the government created that. Well i agree with you to extent in that you. As human beings have evolved. It was necessary for things to be sort of centralized monolithic if you will with the organization of society in order to build cities. And you know aqueduct. In plumbing as we know that thing it was necessary for things to be centralized. But we're moving now into a time. Where technology has evolved to a point. Where things can be decentralized so i'm looking forward to more of that sure and as far as messaging and social media goes there's also cryptocurrencies that working as a messaging apps and things like that. There's one called we. We know a guy whose developing one called hush. Hush is a crypto. That's really designed not so much to be.

Because there's a lot of poor countries of live beyond their me and we're going to help the indigent in third world nation which is a bunch of baloney. They're going to have they. Were gonna try to prevent some of us from becoming third world countries by bailing them out with s.

They're saying that We're we're going to start off with a five hundred billion dollars a year of creating these. Str's out of thin air where they can exchange for sovereign debt and pretend that the str's representing more wealth than some of the sovereign debt. And there'll be a time when You know people even with dollars would rather have something of that. And i think that's why they're looking for alternate currencies around the world and this.

"seven trillion dollars" Discussed on Heartland Newsfeed Radio Network

"Back Four beyond the beltway. We continue with another segment on our second hour. Nice debbie with us I'd like to begin the second by welcoming. Derek wasn't chance to speak yet derek. You've been a big fan of donald trump. do you want him Do you want him tried and convicted and sent to prison Well i think he has a right to like trial like everyone else. Whatever i personally believe about him is not for me. The way that i would divulge how i feel the process. Play out for him As far as the impeachment is concerned. I do think that that person has proven that they're no longer Can be trusted withholding office in that manner with what happened at the capital. Two weeks ago so you think there was a direct correlation between what donald trump said and the reaction of The the demonstrators and the insurgents. Well i mean half of the people were wearing trump. Garb you know. They were there of their own volition in the sense that they didn't just come up with it on their own. They were you know in essence as someone who has been deployed in defense of our nation at two to five for something I didn't see people that were fighting. For democracy storming the capital. I saw people were fighting for a person Donald trump now. Some people might suggest that That was just a test and there had been those that suggested that that was going to be a second confrontation Last week at the inauguration That did not happen so my question to you is did. The did the situation insofar as the insurrection did it. Did it reduce and lessen the the the power and the fear that that rings in the hearts of some people that think that these were hooligans that need to be arrested in shut up forever. Well i what i do know. Is that one hundred. People have been Arrested for the crime they committed at the capitol that day And i think In terms of the the additional Pro protested what they would want to call it On inauguration day i think that those were quelled around the city are around the states because they saw there was repercussions for the actions that that the the many took Two weeks prior so. I think that's really what pretty looked turner. I really wasn't much of a turnover out for for all the hype about that. There was gonna be Outbreaks and demonstrations fifty state capitals. That didn't really happen to any great significance yet. No not at all like i said. I think that you know everybody wants to do something until someone else does it. And then they get in trouble for it and then all of a sudden nobody wants to be a part of this thing anymore. So that that i think is a defining thing between actual movements like progressive real movements where people are willing to put their bodies on the line and be hurt for something to progress vanity and then people who just want to get their president. You know Election overturned. stop the steel like that. That wasn't a movement day. Just bum rushed the capital And i think it was incredibly misguided. Nick my question to you is. How badly has this. Hurt the The the future of the republican party to At the conclusion of the trump administration to try to put the party back together either with donald trump or tapped down donald trump and How likely is it that those republicans who joined in voting for joe biden. How likely is it that they will ever come back if donald trump is anywhere near that party. Why the answer your question. I think it has at least in the near term the republican party because basically played into the worst fears that folks like derek and others on the left have about people who are conservative or republican sites. Oh god they would rush the capital. They would try to overturn the election. And i know that there was at least some element of this was Certainly encouraged by donald trump. But i don't think i don't has. Silence republicans as well right now. They are quietly sitting by while. Joe biden is signing more executive orders than any of predecessors by like an order of magnitude and nancy pelosi and chuck schumer are getting ready to try to ram through things like the questionable election. Act that would is where we are in the first place and caused property so upset about the election results. Do you believe that every republican who voted for the impeachment in the house And every who might vote to convict the president are they taking their political Is that a political suicide mission for them or do you think that they will be viewed as a profile in courage and it will help their political careers. The only thing that's going to help the you know the network news and the atkins eggers and others who are still going out and bashing trump and even mitch mcconnell degree. They're turning off people who have been hashing in support of the president Again whether he's now on the sidelines temporarily or permanently. I think they're doing themselves a tremendous disturbance. What the army needs to do is figure out a captured that That flaming auto if you will which is disaffected working class people classic conservatives mainline republicans and even people who are again. Don't laugh when i say this conservative. Democrats there's one two of them out there and even libertarians and others who are not affiliated with any ardy who saw what the president did in terms of economic growth in terms of actually putting policies in place at rock manufacturing jobs back to the united states. If a republican whether it'll be gaily your article rubio or somebody else it's not going to be one of the republicans bruce who's out there now bashing donald trump aisling on with the democrats. The only thing that they're doing is they're ensuring that when they get out of office. I'm read out of office. They're going to have a nice own for themselves on. Msnbc or cnn but it's also not going to be any of the people who supported this agenda because we just saw a seven trillion dollars in debt being run up under a conservative government we saw a continuation and expanding of a trade war that lost decimation of farming communities in the us that they then had to be bailed out with tax payer money because they would have otherwise they would have starved to death because they were losing everything. We saw a massive ramping up of the so-called wars that he was gonna end overseas and instead he ramped up including the us sponsored genocide. That's going on in yemen under the direction of the saudi government and al qaeda. This is what happened certainly libertarian. Much this conservative folk president who has put us into a war in is drawing down troops so hey drawn down truth. Increase of troops under donald trump did a surge and then brought some of them back. I know that after years of republican democrat rule when we see a decrease after a massive increase. We pretend that that's a decrease but the net number of troops that are overseas right now is higher than when donald trump came into office. Derek do jump in here. So.

"Well maybe that was the wrong thing to do. I think those kind of things can be worked out much faster and right now. We still have a lot of sorting to go and it should be done through the individual. People should have the right information. They should never depend on the government for the right information. They should deal with the possibility of of using a vaccine. Maybe a good idea. Maybe a bad idea but boy right now. People are at least Agreeing with us. You ought to be more cautious about it because vaccines have done a lot of harm. Vaccines have saved. Lives to and certainly was worse. Happening in Smallpox and polio. And if you think but now But those things can be worked out much faster in. There's not such a penalty for making mistakes if the person chooses liberty and volunteerism and a mistake is made because they won't be perfect. You know a small number of people.

"New data on the economic impact of covid. Nineteen has confirmed what many have been thinking. Workers haven't been hit like this in generations. According to the international labor organization ilo people trying to earn a living suffered massively in two thousand and twenty after the corona virus started spreading globally. Early last year. Ilo director-general guy. Ryder told journalists on monday that the impact has been four times worse than the last major financial crisis over a decade ago. This has been the most severe crisis for the world of work since the great depression of the nineteen thirty its impact is fault greater than that of the global financial crisis of two thousand nine when comparing with the law school Twenty nine teen. We now see that eight point. Eight percent of global working hours will lost in the course of the year. And that is the equivalent of two hundred and fifty five million full-time jobs. These lost working hours came from reduce time at work or what is called unprecedented levels of unemployment that affected one hundred and fourteen million people.

Bitcoin Will One Day Hit $1 Million

"Bitcoin blowing through new records today. The crypto currency gaining thirty three percent. This week alone in case you missed it. Wargin creeks anthony. Poblano join us last night here on fast. Listen to what he said about. Bitcoin is headed. If you really think about the technology world we talk about ten x improvement props. Bitcoin is at least ten x better than gold in every way. And so i think that if you just think of a bitcoin product that has to expedite and mortgage cap kind of follows that that would put bitcoin at a million dollars. Coin right just two golds market cap in case you thought you heard wrong. That's a million dollars. A coin became. We're specifically talking about j. p. morgan's known on on Bitcoin from earlier in the week and they were making the point that there have been outflows from gold inflows. Bitcoin as bitcoin has ramped and so the notion is that bitcoin would be a replacement. Are you on board that because that seems to be the main driver these days For the bullish thesis on bitcoin. Yeah i think listen. It's digital goal that narrative has taken off this year among the institutional community and just to put a couple of numbers around that so we have gold. Roughly it's market. It's total value is about ten trillion bitcoins out about seven hundred billion eight hundred billion right now. That jp morgan not talked about if all of the money came out of gold into bitcoin. That would be somewhere around two point seven trillion dollars. So that's probably almost. What a quadruple from the price. From where we all right now maybe a little bit more a quadruple puts you at j. p. morgan's price at one hundred and forty six thousand. So it's not necessarily a reasonable. My only concern is when you you know. And i think pop made a great point. My concern is when you have these these these big upside targets then. People say hey. I'm gonna just going load into it here and i just. I've been doing it for years. But i remind people. Bitcoin has months where it's down thirty forty percent so you could buy a forty thousand today and watch it go to twenty thousand and that would not be unusual and we should make the point to that. Anthony made clear that you could see wild swings on the way to a million dollars a point up twenty percent or down twenty percent or thirty percent for that matter. Cape fat kate. I imagine that your clients are inquiring. I mean this has got to be on everybody's mind so how. How do you approach that honestly. Melissa bitcoin is not my joint jealous of the people who are in. It made a lot of money. I don't get. It doesn't make a lot of sense to me and why bitcoin if you say cryptocurrency generally cage supply-and-demand. If bitcoin is doing that well it will attract other crypto currencies. So i'm gonna sit on the sidelines on this one.

Are We Being Forced to Buy Stocks

"Last week in the insiders guide email newsletter I pointed out the expensive valuation of US stocks. Specifically I showed that the forward price to earnings ratio the P. E. based on earnings estimates over the next year was twenty, two point nine. That's three standard deviations above its average of sixteen times going back to two thousand, three at data from Ned Davis. Research. In reply to that email, Andrew wrote regarding stocks being expensive on a forward e true but there's no alternative. What do you do with bond yields near Zero and the vanguard total stock market? Index. Fund. Yielding two percent. By VPI, the vanguard total stock market ETF. JASA forwarded to me a paper by Bridgewater says, which I'll discuss in more detail later in this episode. I had a similar question from a plus member in the money for the rest of US plus member forums. He wrote. So the Fed signals that it wants to keep rates low for three more years. Canada's pension. Fund is reevaluating bond-holdings and you've got an army of small and large investors bidding up companies like Tesla and snowflake to absurdly hype. All this combined to make me think are we as individual investors now forced to buy equities? Is this the mother of all bubbles in which there's literally no other things suitable for purchase. There is a lot of speculation in stocks right now. Jim. Bianco Bianca Research pointed out that small traders are dominating the options market. Bear most of the trades right now and seventy five percent of that volume is an option contracts expire in two weeks. So short term bets. Look at South Korea and article from Bloomberg pointed out that day traders in South Korea have accounted for eighty seven and a half percent of the total value of stocks traded in the first part of September. You. Some men chief strategist at Samsung Securities said retail investors appear to be seeking short-term profits after hearing their next door neighbors earned lots of money from stocks after the March selloff. Receiving a similar situation in India. The Financial Times reports that the number of individual investor accounts rose twenty percent from the start of the year, the twenty, four million, and they point out that around the world, an influx of investors are investing in stocks for the first time. Are. We in a bubble? Is it a speculative frenzy? Are we forced to buy these stocks because there are no alternatives with also? One of the things I like to do investing is think about what's different this time what's unusual? What what doesn't fit the pattern? I had two instances of investing this past week where something didn't fit the pattern Lebron, I were driving up in the mountains of Montana and a small bear cub really bolted right in front of us no idea what it was running from. My son suggested he was running from the year twenty twenty. And then few days later at our front door, there were seven cows drinking water from the driveway eating our bushes. There are no cows around us. We live in an area that nobody keeps cows but there they were right in front of my house. Turns out. They had strayed from the National Forest, which is not very far some outfitters have grazing rights and drop off the cows and leave them there all summer pick them up come late October, and they had straight down because some of that newly cut barley fields, but it didn't fit the pattern. Cows at your front door. Don't fit the pattern. What's different now on investing front that could justify more expensive valuations for stocks. Well, for the first time, ever US interest rates are near zero from short term out to ten years. This is known as a flat yield curve, which is an unusual. We've had flat yield curves in the past. But it's flat near zero. There was a flat yield curve where ten treasury bonds and cash for yielding similar back from two thousand and five to two thousand seven. But yielding four percent. And from two thousand to two, thousand, two cash and tenure treasures were yielding five to six percent. Today, the ten year Treasury yield is zero point, six percent and cash is zero. The Federal Reserve intense to keep it that way. The recent policy statement suggests that they will keep their policy rate. What's known as the Fed funds rate near zero until labor market conditions have improved. The. Unemployment rate has dropped close to to to maximum employment and that inflation has risen to two percent is on track to moderately exceed two percent. They included their economic and rate projections and all, but four officials on the committee. Expect the Fed funds rate is still be near zero at the end of twenty, twenty three. Rates are low across the board. It is a different investment environment than we have ever faced before. And that's what this paper by bridgewater associates was about. It was titled Grappling With the New Reality of zero bond yields virtually everywhere. It was written by Bob Prince Greg Jensen Melissa fear, and Jim Haskell. I. Discussed Bridgewater Associates Founder Ray dallies views back in episode three, hundred changing world order in this paper bills off that. Before we continue let me pause and share some words from one of this week sponsors masterworks. I've shared on the show how low interest rates are on bonds and yields and cash about zero money has to be invested somewhere in preserving your wealth is as hard as it's ever been. That's where masterworks comes in. If you're looking to diversify out of the traditional public markets, then take a look at masterworks. They make blue chip art investing possible works by artists like Banksie, 'cause and Warhol. Art is a one point seven trillion dollar asset class that has performed better than s five hundred by one hundred and eighty percent between two thousand and two thousand eighteen according to Citibank.

Impact Of Climate Policy On 2020 Presidential Election

"On the most recent Pew Research Survey of top issues for voters this year climate change despite even make the top ten. But not for Varsity precaut-, she's executive director of the Environmental Justice Groups Sunrise Movement. She helped editor book called winning the Green New Deal and her organization gave, Joe. Biden's initial climate platform, an f rating but as Biden became the likely democratic. Nominee for president precaut-. Joined his climate change task force to make sure aggressive climate policy had a place on the ballot this year when we spoke earlier today, I asked her about how you seen his climate policy shift while she's been helping shape it. We have seen his client plan improve considerably over the last three months now, championing policies to decarbonised our power. Sector by twenty, thirty, five, we've seen him increase the level of investment from a one point, seven trillion dollar green jobs and infrastructure plan to a two trillion dollar plan over the next four years on the whole our core goal was to go in and increase Joe Biden's ambition and the Taiwan upon which these benchmarks are happening to decarbonised economy and ensure that. Environmental Justice and climate justice except core and at the heart of his agenda climate seems to have fallen out of the headlines Lately. That's even with record breaking heat fires hurricanes. Instead, the news is dominated by pandemic and economic collapse racial justice. What's your level of concern that climate change may not be getting sufficient political attention and and how do you get that attention? I think the key here is to understand the climate crisis is essentially connected to every single one of crises that are emerging whether it is the uprisings against white supremacy or whether it is the tens of millions of jobs that are been lost in this economic downturn in large part I believe the climate crisis is even thinking because we have racial and economic inequality in this country for example, I believe that after hurricane. Katrina. We would've had a green new deal past fifteen years ago and yet here we are. Fifteen years later, we've got a double header storm and communities engulfs out. That are still suffering We would have had green new deal following hurricane. Maria when thousands more were ricans perished but because we do not value black lives and brown lives, indigenous lives, poor lives as much as others, we have not taken the drastic unnecessary measures to prevent suffering. Do you think climate plays out in local political races as well or do voters think of it mostly as something that has to be addressed on a national issue? Now, I think it absolutely plays out at the local level. The climate crisis take so many different forms in different communities in Iowa overseeing the role that corporate agriculture and factory farming plays as being really detrimental to communities for Detroit. The level of fuel infrastructure contributing to asthma and disease for the majority black community. Earlier, we have seen the election of drama. Or Eliot Angle in New York which Jamal Boom and actively ran and champions agree new deal when his opponent refused to do. So the climate crisis is affecting people at the local and state level not chest. Politics. So, have you thought ahead to if president trump is reelected? What will you approach be to try to advance your climate goals with a presidential administration that may be less receptive Joe Biden would have been. We're still figuring that out. What I'll say is everything that has happened with the green new deal at the federal level and many of the substantive state legislative battles that have been one have been under the shadow of the trump administration, and so I do believe that there is absolutely still space to fight and contests and win, but it will be far far easier. If we have item presidency, Vaujany precaut- is Executive Director of the Sunrise Movement and her new book is called winning the green new deal partially, thanks for coming on the program. Thank you so much

Buy now, save later: financing vaccine candidates

"Up dumb. Right. Now, more than one hundred, seventy vaccines for covid nineteen or being developed across the world. Of, those six are in final large scale clinical trials. While the races on policy policymakers are. With two questions how much to spend on vaccines that may or may not win and how to ensure the winner or winners are distributed fairly, you cannot be no world where some people are saved another. Anglesey conjure a whaler is the chair of the Global Alliance for vaccines and aviation or Gabby. It's an alliance that funds vaccines for poor countries the steps that need to be taken to ensure vaccines that distributed fairly Require. Collaboration and solidarity of the world governing has set up what's called Kovacs purchasing pool for several late stage vaccine candidates is that facility it has ninety two developing countries in it low and middle income countries, and it also has seventy seven rich countries that have expressed interest by bringing them all together we will have an affordable price of vaccines for all. We have risk sharing in the facility for all, and this will ensure that so many more people in the world who would not have had access will have access so to. Be Equitable I need to be fair but equitable fair division is just one problem I for needs to be enough given vaccine to divide up governments around the world have invested so far at least ten billion dollars on Covid nineteen vaccines they have made forward purchases of about four billion doses so far more companies have essentially already started making some vaccines even before they have been proven to work Slovakia chunk of his or healthcare correspondent the contracts governments have cut with Pharma companies are for about four billion dollars of various vaccines. Now that may look like a lot when my think it's enough to cover most of the world, but it's actually nowhere near enough. Why not to begin with of these vaccines may turn out to be ineffective when the clinical trials are all done. A typical vaccine at this stage has about the twenty percent chance of payer, and some of these vaccines also use novell technologies that haven't been used in any other approved vaccine before. So the risk of failure could be even higher. The biggest issue is that manufacturing capacity globally is limited and there would be shortages, the files and the ingredients that are used in vaccines once manufacturing begins on a large. So I'm experts think that the feasible amount of covid nineteen vaccine the will have by the end of next year is just about two billion dollars. In some vaccines actually are likely to require of course of dolls to work. So we're talking about nowhere near enough to cover even a minority, the world's population. So how much would be enough? How many those should countries be buying up at this stage? Just think that given the current mix of Seo game to the there is a ninety percent chance that there will be. Actually works. Now. One of I've seen is proven to be effective billions of dollars will, of course, need to be distributed very quickly, but it's impossible to know in advance which candidate will succeed. And setting up manufacturing lines takes time a new vaccine factory can take anywhere to three years to get up and running. So government should actually help pharmaceutical companies to produce vast quantities, a range of different vaccines, and ideally economists think Thaksin's numbering in the tens of billions of dollars long before regulatory provides transit but if everybody makes all of the at the same time, there will be. Some some losers right a lot will come to be wasted that way. Yes. Of course absolutely, and that's actually the hard part for politicians because this idea of deliberately overproducing something does not sit easily with politicians or voters indeed bud you have to think about the economic costs even boosting vaccine funding ten times to about the hundred billion or more, which is what many economists are advocating for. Pales in comparison with the seven trillion dollars which governments across the world have spent or pledge to preserve income and jobs that are being lost as a result of the pandemic. So in other words, if we just think of economic output alone a took make sense for the world to spend as much as two hundred, billion on bringing forward ineffective Covid nineteen vaccine. Just fun week to the way things are headed. It seems inevitable that there will be a shortage of supplies. How will they be distributed? Once a good candidate is found i. mean we we saw when the pandemic began this rush for personal protective equipment was not a pretty scene. Right experience was quite telling by the end of April. There were probably around eighty countries that had banned or restricted exports. Youth defend America especially things like medical masks, thermometers, disinfect thens. And even if we look at pandemics the during the swine flu pandemic and you thousand nine rich countries, basically corner the global supplies of the vaccine and they offer some of it to developing countries only after they had more than asked to cover their own citizens and by then if endemic was over. So, what we really seeing now as many commentators are calling vaccine nationalism rich countries are reserving most of the potential global supply of covid nineteen vaccines. And additions countries where these vaccines can be made have the manufacturing capacities are very likely to put their own people first. So what's being done to try to mitigate that global scramble. There are several mechanisms that have been put together for countries to join forces and agree to a more equitable distribution also may end. Make much faster. So the World Health Organization has grown up guidelines of how that might look quite and according to these guidelines. The first supplies of covid nineteen vaccines should call to healthcare workers and social. Care Workers First. Then, the next batch should go to the fifteen or twenty percent of people in each country who are most vulnerable, most likely to from covid nineteen if they're infected. And then laces that are at the highest risk of outbreaks will we prioritized now whether these guidelines will be followed is a different story. It's unclear how many countries will sign up may have expressed interest, but nothing has been signed so far. So all told, what's your prognosis at this stage? Do you think the world will produce enough quantities of candidate vaccines and that they will be distributed in a way? That's even a little bit fair. Just likely that there won't be not vaccine to go around in the first year. Whether it will be distributed equitably depends on where the winning vaccine is made. If the vaccine is part of the portfolio, which is controlled by the global coalition backed up by the World Health Organization than we will see supply being distributed marsh equitably on the other hand if the vaccine turns out to be made in a country that doesn't want to share, it supplies before covering its own citizens. And it's a big country. We won't expect most of the world be covered equitably for a time. Now the solution perhaps is just to spend. More money on the current candidate vaccines, the Waza rating late stage clinical trials. Set of manufacturing, start making them in large quantities that will ensure that there is more to go around with trevor. Vaccine turns out successful. Thanks very much for joining us. Thank you.
