5:09 pm
the warrant ukraine could lead to a sudden stop of european gas. you were just discussing that from russia. inflation could be harder to bring down that anticipated the, the titling monetary policies from central banks, where it's going to cause much, much more hardship. renewed, coven 19 locked downs, could, could be occurring more supply chain problems. so in fact, they're saying that there's actually rather a good chance of an alternative scenario of global growth. declining a 2.6 percent in 2022 and 2 percent in 2023. so, i mean, those headline figures are bad enough, but therapy the i'm, i was immediately hedging saying, and it could be a lot worse. yeah, i'm, i'm seeing the, i'm, if i said there's a d u. s. has a very narrow path to avoid recession now. so what are the economic indicators should be, be looking out for this week? you know, that's an intriguing one, because actually the main fear right now is the federal reserve is going to increase interest rates at such a rapid pace. and they are on track to do so on wednesday to get another point. 75

5:11 pm
a trumps that that might show a 2nd straight month of decline in which case. and a lot of people's book, that's technically recessional there, the u. s. government, i just, again, i'm just now in the prescott because they don't think the u. s. isn't the recession, recession even if that technical milestone is reached of to, to straight a quarters of declining g d p because the labor market say strong company, adding $400000.00 jobs a month and be in a recession. that is the is the arguments that look out for thursday. and friday we got the consumer price index, which will give us another indication of how, how inflation is varying in the us chapter towns in washington dc. thank you. israeli forces have rated the palestinian village of cato at bonnie hall sun in the occupied westbank. they demolished the homes of 2 palestinians had been charged with killing a god in april at the illegal israeli settlement to arielle. abraham reports knowing you'd old as a dean meadow, he has been asking about his bicycle since the early hours of the morning. with the
