11:02 pm
a tense time is very real so i think that move is of course a welcome move when it comes to deescalating that tension but the bigger picture of hasn't been addressed is incredibly complicated when it comes to maritime rights who says what turkey is not a signatory to the u.n. nor of the see it here is to what it says it's continental shelf greece of course says that turkey is infringing on its waters when it's coming to exploratory moves that are still going on and will continue until september the 12th so it's very difficult to see how those issues are going to be addressed and resolved because president has had a lot of harsh words in the last couple of days saying that turkey is not going to back down it's being unfairly treated it's coastline is being caged in and greece of course also not backing down saying that turkey is infringing on its sovereign maritime rights. u.s. president donald trump appears to have backtracked on his suggestion that voters should try to cast their ballots twice in the embers election to test the malin

'd they view growth as something positive. it's great watching our kids grow up or seeing a tree grow. it we always aware that all growth must come to an end. there's a limit nature knows no such thing as infinite growth this rule seems to apply to every kind of growth but one economic growth is somehow supposed to continue indefinitely. we believed them and now there are no limits to growth and human progress when men and women are free to follow their dreams. and we were
11:06 pm
right. if that growth fades to materialize we panic but why. does one person recognize the 150 years ago growth is the fundamental principle of our economic system. capitalism only works when the economy grows but call marx recognize something else as well it is this growth that will eventually destroy the system itself. and today. every reach that point is the system about to collapse. at infinite growth actually be possible. the governments don't want us to even question the g. word they don't even want to put the discussion around grace if you're looking at this from the outside it an alien arriving from outer space and you're looking at the society. you would really wonder what was going all what are they doing what what is this gross that has to appear in every political sense on some is the basis
11:07 pm
of every economics textbook what is it all about is it a is a religion that they have is the god that they're chasing is the virus that's taken over them. what is this visceral fear that emerges as soon as growth starts to go away. and he says off to one of vox storm canvas garnished gave the well to do from is it the mention the of it was not available you didn't talk vox storm in the.

11:10 pm
be such a useful measure actually for the war effort and for understanding the war effort that. became the single most important policy number. across the world it kind of symbolizes progress to us sort of says while things are getting bigger so they must be getting better that was the us of the g.d.p. . in the 3 decades after the war the western economies grew up to 8 percent and in the u.s. they called it the golden age of capitalism in france they were the 30 glorious years in germany it was the economic miracle an entire generation enjoyed material prosperity and full employment and this became engraved in the collective consciousness even though these high growth rates were only made possible by a massive one time destruction of the believe in growth was now unstoppable. g.d.p. became the most important benchmark in history.
11:11 pm
and the economy in the grace of economy was doing a good job force when when we were young if you like when as an economy as a society we were young and one of the really important things to say is that there are some societies where that is still necessary where you still need that growth where you still need food clothing and shelter whether very very poor undernourished people living on less than the price of a skinny latte from the cafe downstairs and that's a that's a situation where growth makes some sense. but the idea that as human beings all we want is more more stuff doesn't really stack up so after a certain point you have to ask yourself well how much is enough how much how much more do i need to great economy to satisfy human appetites. the 1970s so our growth rate sink for the 1st time due to the op crisis and other factors the boom was over the market saturated western economies stagnated
11:12 pm
millions suddenly found themselves unemployed it was uncharted territory. for the 1st time the limits of course became visible economically socially and ecologically . we do have some understanding about growth. in 1982 a group of scholars commissioned by the club of rome presented a report in washington and titled limits to growth using a computer simulation researchers at mit had calculated for the 1st time what continues economic growth would do to the planet's they're finding set off alarm bells around the world when resource consumption is doubling every 20 years for the 1st time people were confronted with the fact they can only grow it could also have negative consequences and that the planet's natural limits would soon be reached
11:13 pm
the success story of growth was in crisis we've reached levels of prosperity which carries the seeds of disruption and necessitate a complete relook at the whole world social political and other situation. a couple of rome reports sold 30000000 copies and became a global sensation. and yet soon this calls themselves came under attack their calculations ready tried as irresponsible fear mongering because it's impossible to admit the end except for the success story of growth. must continue. unfortunately many of us called us predictions turned out to be right and in many cases reality even so possibly predictions. as the cover from reports was causing an international uproar the brazilian

a good part exported to russia china and in other countries. do you see any limits know the limits of the disk i have and the limits. in response to the crisis of the seventy's economic policy underwent a change of course new growth had to be followed no matter what the cost even if that meant only seeing the prime influences of china's capitalist. these had been contained after world war 2 because there were hundreds possible of the great depression and the war itself. monetarism was a new magic word. among them was the idea that if you put more money into the
11:18 pm
economy liquidity it was cool that additional money in the economy would help really best that would help give a small production that would allow us to consume more goods and we would get growth back again so this little hiatus if you like in the seventy's primarily caused by the oil crisis led to a transformation in the economics of our society and in particular how we think about grace and how we think about stimulating growth i. governments deregulated financial markets banks insurance companies and investment funds going to influence and we're now allowed to gamble with currencies stocks even with people's retirement funds capital was let loose and the financial sector was flooded with my.

11:22 pm
in the capital markets. our customers expect their capital to be returned they want their money back and they want their return on that game and the moment there is another agenda. well why i'm commander just 1.2 trillion euros obvious it's and in germany we're managing 490000000000 euros of assets. the financial markets they have a social role in distributing people's savings towards investment and that investment is usually a form of debt so when you you take out a loan for example to buy a house that line could end up in a bond and we could end up buying that phone so growth is important so that individuals and companies who borrow money in the capital markets can actually pay those lines back. with
11:23 pm
a less free trade when he said friend you just. imagine a world with 0 growth that's a world in in which pretty much everything gets frozen if you haven't got a job in this new world with no growth bad luck. you're going to have to wait for somebody to retire before maybe you get their job . and society without growth probably won't work at all. not for long it will be cherry and to collapse. without growth societies will descend into chaos according to the financial and political elite. but is that really the case isn't it rather the blind faith in growth that leads us to chaos. in the eighty's the
11:24 pm
world of finance operating from the city of london and wall street increased its influence and governments and societies and became the driving force of kept us today financial markets not governments determine their wellbeing of anti countries . how did it come to this how could financial markets gain such influence over our lives. one person who knows the financial world better than almost anyone this year at college for nearly 30 years he was a successful fund manager on wall street and in the city of long. known of plants beautiful much as i was a scientist and i've been offered 20 times in pounds to go and stone wall street in 1008. and i was one of the worst i was the beginning. and we went into the new era of reagan and liberal trade the so-called big bang in the city was all about financial deregulation let's go let the market decide and
11:25 pm
let's hire people and let's see what happens yes i suppose this really kind of control that is here which we've had before and it was that we walked into where money now talks now money wins and you need people small people to trade the markets and make finance the powerhouse behind capitalism which is supposed to be. the plan seem to work stock markets build roads no longer needed to be financed by increasing wages and tax revenue now it was all about credits governments and individuals rather take out loans from banks and investors. so that they could be good consumers and thus generate. credit cards come along overdraft so to use lending for houses becomes widely available
11:26 pm
and it's at that point that explodes. that now it's not just the very wealthy have access to all these things consumerism is now people lower down the income scales as well and if you look at money supply in that and supply credits in the early eighty's it just explodes. has been access to consumerism and promotion of current consumerism close debt which is created the growth we created and where we are today. the cold logic of the market took over producing winners and losers. one of the people who knew best how to profit from this new logic was donald trump . i really think i have an instinct but i don't think it's the instinct shark i think it's the instinct of of maybe getting what i want or knowing how to get what
11:27 pm
i want. only if you recognize the profit opportunities in this new era as well as donald trump he made large scale purchases of derelict new york apartment blocks and promised to transform them into luxury hotels and apartments he received financing from banks high on the market boom and through the largest tax break in new york city history trump himself had practically nothing more happen is an incredible place where you build a huge building in a sold out in a matter of days i mean you know you build a building with literally 3 or 400 units i'm building a building is one of the hottest buildings anyone's of the scene is just selling like hotcakes and then hatton itself is becoming a place of the rich period. the genie was out of the bottle the brave new world of finance or capitalism could no

11:34 pm
about to collapse. at infinite growth actually be possible. the bloomberg company from new york place a central role in the financial system since the $980.00 s. bloomberg has provided stock traders and bankers with lightning fast price fluctuations and finance data from around the globe making it one of the world's most influential media companies. around the clock bloomberg news agency in stock market channel broadcast the glad tidings of the free market. our role in financial markets is as a provider of transparency i would provide a huge amount of data you should not have numbers on markets on economies all companies provide a net chronicle of capitalism tell a story of money vitally important to bloomberg and central to what we are about dolls. i don't cross dangerous as one of most important numbers we look for if i say. on the on the state for the economy steady solid growth in financial markets
11:35 pm
do usually reflected in solid growth. in economics in demand in jobs markets reason is that people feel wealthier if you look at the textbooks there should be no limits to growth but if you look at the newspapers at the moment you get the feeling there is a. growth in the central question now is whether we're in a cyclical slump or there's something structural is going on. just. by release of systems based upon people remaining to have confidence in the information they're giving out and the promotion. of the ideology and the narrative which finance is based around which is increasingly become this kind of game show croce things. for a period time everybody wins. and then there's you know
11:36 pm
a number of economists marx keynes and pointed out is eventually all these means go on and the question. to those heavy lobbying by the financial sector on the government to ensure actually that this financial sector growth could continue and governments believe that it was in the interest of the economy because everyone told the monitors and told them that if you had all this liquidity in the system then you must be growing your real economy but actually what was happening within that system rather was that you freed up all this money which was then used to bet on the increases in the value of certain companies and certain shares and of money itself in the system and the people who were doing that betting were not only profiting from it but they were also the only people who were regulating the system so it created a huge unstable and incredibly. equal system in which the rich got very much richer really very fast. for
11:37 pm
decades society has been transformed into an enormous market to which there's allegedly no alternative. the huge sums few in the financial markets scream for high returns and have penetrated every corner of the globe. new ways are constantly thought to expand profits already in the tree in. the road seems to be getting to small for the capital. when i was a kid i couldn't afford to fly in an airplane i actually joined the air transport industry before i ever flew in america. today people take flying for granted it shaped the way we buy goods it shaped places people go to shape the meetings
11:38 pm
between people and different cultures. over the next 20 years we expect the world to meet 32000 new civil aircraft. at the moment around 1000000000 of the people who live on our planet fly by air regularly. the remaining 6000000000 don't yet fly by air and it's these people who will be tomorrow's passengers and tomorrow's customers in addition for those of us in developed countries who take flying for granted. have delivered over the last 6 years more than $100.00 brand new airplanes
11:39 pm
towards airlines charge. on airplanes every string days the changes. that take that. leap. i thought there's a saying that there's something to turn the battle now. that says i'm doing well at all. i thought i was up that's about to get the audience right but currently we have a slightly montreux 100 apples. in china they tend to and every year in the range of 10 or 15 and you have false want to be viewed imagine if everybody cannot fault the travel expenses even the peasant was low cost the business water a worker is willing to travel by the marketing is fantastic you can't imagine
11:40 pm
and i i already seems that this is a sign of that that's why when i look at it every time know i'm asking about the perspective of the market i cannot imagine as a dime ation of this market when i hands a reference of 1400000000 which is even more important than the whole of europe and more atrophy means more pollution what do you do about that. we made every single effort to try to reduce his emissions but if we look at as a social benefits and as economic benefits as education industry or bring to the humanity. and then people may think differently we. are trying to make as well as smaller and smaller. to make it a real village. for
11:41 pm
decades growth was kept on life support with that only if you had the courage to say that the party couldn't go on forever but no one listened to them. in september 2008 the time had come the house of cards collapsed it's a black monday for the american capital market despite dramatic rescue efforts over the weekend all efforts to keep the world's 4th largest investment bank alive have failed lehman brothers is shutting its doors for good it's also i think a necessary part of the clean up process i mean we knew it was weak we expected to
11:42 pm
go it's not going in the way that people expected it to but it's gong. the long run i'm confident that our capital markets are flexible and resilient can deal with these adjustments. so that. there was a deep shock in the system it was a sense of my goodness we can't let this happen again governments have to have a better handle on this system and for a while there were attempts to do that it lost it probably a matter of a few months in fact by the end of 2009 and into 2010. the very same companies a been responsible for some of that disaster was still engaging in those same kinds of risky trading procedures that for a while had been stopped in the wake of the crisis and we learned
11:43 pm
a lesson. but then we forgot again. the financial crisis was a huge opportunity for governments to free the world from its dependency on financial markets and to change the system but they wasted it instead they did all they could to revive the old system spending trillions of dollars to save the banks . then something incredible happens the banking crisis miraculously became a sovereign debt crisis drive a dead became public that governments and the citizens press objected to a sturdy policy is under which millions of people suffer to this day. thanks and stock markets however keen to demonstrate a sense of normalcy as soon as possible in reality nothing is as it seems capitalism survive the crisis that no longer functions like it once did.
11:44 pm
even though it's not as busy as it used to be this is still the center of capitalism you can look at all the tourists who are outside the building taking pictures they all still believe this is the center of capitalism it's a symbol of something it means something to them. and said i'm sort of like the weatherman for the stock market i come in every day and try to figure out what's going on in the stock market i talk to trading desks i talk to an honest i talk to people who know a lot about the stock market and i go on the air and on the internet and explain what's going on. remember the s. and p. 500 is down one and a half percent this month you have very clear market leaders and the reason we've had it is because of better prospects for earnings in the 4th quarter remember what the market leaders have been energy tech events lagging today energy tax and banks that's interesting their next. prince fielder. it bothers me just to
11:45 pm
try to. human beings want stories they don't want an endless list of numbers nobody is impressed with a list of numbers they want to know what's going on tell us in plain english what the markets were doing and that's the real skills and often that's not easy because things are very complicated. people have always claimed that capitalism can be evil and capitalism doesn't help people i completely disagree what i see in the last 150 years is millions of people have been lifted out of poverty i personally am a true believer and still believe that the system works well and i'm committed to that system.
11:46 pm
at this underfund and the new york about the van that fell from 2000 mention of theme park at. a middle point of a dimensions in time to get attention because you're going to just fall into a dozen shots which tells me it's in the wind as the hell is defense hot in the house and this is one of the new york stock exchange this is a list the average i was in was 1st published it. is in this it's the machine just about wins. we are in jackson cause the death had just eaten by the want to name an mia given of adults off the top not going to give in and is going to name. him off the oxen cause it does come on the awful scene and the among the hostages have been known to the i love village shaft involves a. long outside but it was in one town about kind of talks to me getting tied to given a zing in cuts in trying to balance and cause the doc to mock police to towels one cup of tea from the. kid up.
11:47 pm
i think what we've seen over the last few years is cracks in the in the shiny surface of capitalism. and a 1st that's what they look like you know they just look as though something not quite right on the the way the light reflects off it and thus you look more and more closely. you see this you see that these cracks go right so the heart of the model they go right to the heart of the basic ideas of capitalism. does capitalism is to work. the system deliver what it promises. providing growth jobs and prosperity for all.
11:48 pm
