of the government bailout but investors will not be cashing in. pimm: hillary clinton is officially in the race and jerry buss formally enters the race for the republican nomination. betty: carnival is betting big and green on europe, commissioning the largest cruiseship ever. ceo arnold donald will join us for an exclusive interview later this hour. pimm: good afternoon, i am pimm fox. betty: i am betty liu. let's have a look at how markets are trading, it it has been down across the day so far. the dow is off by 114 points,

the s&p lowered by one half a percent. some jitters in the greek stalemate. that is weighing, including a factory output also weighing on investor sentiment. over oil prices, we are seeing some declines. brent down almost 2%. and spears andts that continues to bring the oil prices down. pimm: let's talk about the selloff on the bond market -- actually steady. a little bit of a rally, people buying u.s. treasury's, perhaps on the news that greece and its creditors have not reached an agreement and are not even talking here it let's look at currencies, the dollar strengthens against the euro. the yen also strengthening against the dollar. the pound sterling posting a small gain.

let's take a look at some of the top stories crossing the bloomberg terminal. there was an unexpected drop in u.s. factory production last month. industrial output fell 2/10 of a percent. energy fell for her the third consecutive month and reports show the stronger u.s. dollar and decreases in fuel prices are holding back u.s. factories. the u.s. supreme court has forcingto back a law doctors to show women their ultrasound exam before undergoing an abortion. an appeals court said the measure violated the speech rights of doctors and the high court let that ruling stand. rescue workers in georgia are still searching for more than 20 people and a number of potentially dangerous animals missing after severe flooding ravaged the animal -- the area around the zoo. at least 12 people are dead, and 30 employees are among those who have drowned. but gas prices are up again

are rising at a slower price. the average price of a gallon of regular gasoline jumped three cents to $2.87. say it is the smallest increase in nine weeks. the highest race was in san diego, $3.62 a gallon. gallon in was $2.45 a tucson, arizona. jeb bush is officially entering the race for the republican nomination. the former florida governor hold a rally at miami-dade university, and he has probably raised a record amount of money already but conservatives have questioned some of his policies. we will have live coverage of the announcement set for 3:00 p.m. eastern. bloomberg politics will lifestream the event at bloomberg.com. betty: president obama as trying to persuade 100 fellow democrats to recap that are their votes.

it andrday, they ignored handed him an embarrassing defeat. house supporters will try to rescue the trade bill in another vote as soon as tomorrow. democrats opposed to the trade deal say he could hurt american jobs and wages. the head of the european central bank says the next move is up to greece. that theyit clear have to do something to break the stalemate. yesterday, talks down after only 45 minutes. >> such a strong, incredible agreement with greece is needed not only in the interest of greece but in the euro area as a whole. why all actors who need to go ball liesmile, the strictly in the court of the greek camp to take the necessary steps. betty: greek prime minister alexis burress says he will not give in to a european demand for

cuts. he will wait for lenders to become more realistic. watchdog wantss to see the creation of a global strategy to deal with a crisis which it says is the worst emergency of its kind its world war ii. they suggest world leaders have left millions of refugees in an unbearable state. in half has ever taken $1 million worldwide in its opening weekend until now. world"al's ""jurassic set the record over the weekend. this is the only second time that this has happened. pimm: a win in court for hank greenberg but no financial damages. the judge has ruled that the u.s. set illegal terms.

that does not mean shareholders deserve compensation. star international sought at least $25 billion for shareholders. the eight-week trial included testimony by former federal reserve chairman ben bernanke. betty: i want to go straight to washington for a quick update from bloomberg's peter cook. as i mentioned a few months ago, hank greenberg's office got the word about this decision through us and he is at this moment i believe assessing exactly what this teen. -- what this means. no damages, that is kind of a blow. peter: this was all about the money so this is a blow to hank greenberg and the other shareholders who are a part of this lawsuit. it is probably not the final word here it i would not be surprised to hear from david boys and hank greenberg that

they plan to take this to the supreme court, partly because the court had found the government overstepped boundaries when the bailout first took place. when they took the shares as collateral, the judge found the government did not have the authority to take shares in particular. the second part of this was damages and i will read directly from the decision. "in the end, the achilles heel was if not for the government's intervention they would have filed for bankruptcy and the stockholders would have lost 100% of their value." the bottom line, if the government had not stepped in the shares would be worth nothing so even though they went to bank far, hank greenberg and others could not prove they were damaged financially as a result because the alternative was they would have lost everything. betty: the stock would have gone

to zero and everybody would have lost out. when hank and i have talked about this case and i have talked about it with others, very likely whoever lost was going to appeal but i knew -- i do not think anyone game out this idea that hank would win and not get the damages. thender what this means u.s. government will do, if they even need to appeal. peter: i can tell you in the courtroom, this was a viable scenario. , theovernment attorneys justice department attorneys representing the treasury department and federal government talked about it openly and they sent to the judge, even if you think we made a mistake back in that crisis moment, they made the argument, you cannot find that the shareholders were hurt because the only other alternative here was again, their shares would be worth nothing. at least in terms of the bailout they got something for the

government stepping in. they get $.20 on the dollar or whatever it was back at that time. they made the argument that hank greenberg and aig shareholders should have been thinking the federal government for stepping in and offering this bailout because the alternative is even worse. betty: we are just showing aig shares popped on the back of this news. thank you so much peter cook. those are your top stories at noon. turning to politics -- look out for low-flying hat. hillary tossed hers into the presidential rank. later today, jeb bush is expected to do the same. clinton, in her speech, she channeled president obama in her wall street pay. >> you see ceos making record day but your paychecks have barely budged. while many of you are working multiple jobs to make ends meet,

you see the top 25 hedge fund managers making more than all of america's kindergarten teachers combined, and often paying a lower tax rate. pimm: with us now to look at what hillary clinton has to prove, out of the gate is a frequent guest, former congressman martin frost of texas. i am wondering if you could describe, based on your hearing of hillary clinton's speech, who is she running against? martin: she is running against the republicans. she has to hold as much of the base as possible. she cannot just rerun obama's campaign in 2008 and 2012

because it is not realistic she would get as large a turnout in the black community as obama did turnout fore a young people. she makes up for that by going after women. the republican candidate one the white female vote five of the last six elections. the only time the democratic candidate won the white female vote was in 1996, bill clinton's second term. there was a gender gap but minority women vote overwhelmingly to my craddick. -- democratic. votee could hold obama's and carry the white female vote, it will be very tough for the republicans. she has set the right tone. she is not going to be taken out by somebody on the left in the primary, and she will be ready for the general election. i think she is off to a good start. betty: i think that is a huge

point that you just made. , ison the republican side it jeb bush, who can fight her tooth and nail for the white female vote? martin: i do not know the answer to that what i will tell you this. my friends who are republicans think that bush is not necessarily going to sail through to the nomination, that the conservative element in the republican party will fight him. i think you will have a tough time against one of several midwestern governors. i'm not sure who on the republican side will be able to do that well on women. we will have to wait and see what they say. republicans have not spoken to women very clearly isn't though up until this point, women have gone in and by a small margin, voted republican. i harken back to my own family. my father was a very conservative texan and i have a feeling that my mother quietly went in and canceled his vote out her.

pimm: you are also co-author of "the partisan divide." what is deal inclinton's revising? martin: she is smart and she has closed out the prop -- the prospect that she can work across party lines. president obama has had a difficult time. has not necessarily been in his comfort zone. hillary will be able to talk to republicans and i hope if she is president, i am supporting her, that she will be able to bring republicans along on some issues. not on all issues. the situation we all know is the house is against the democrats so the house will continue. that senate is up for grabs. republicanwo as many

-- democratic senators compared to republicans. she will have to demonstrate early on that she can successfully reach out to people in the other party, and i believe she can. she's a tough, smart lady. betty: martin frost, the former texas governor and the co-author of "the partisan divide." pimm: in the next half hour he will bring you our exclusive interview with the ukrainian president. cash aabeling the bright. betty: ceo of the world's largest travel company is taking us for an exclusive look on the next generation of cruiseship he is commissioning for the european market, and social impact travel. pimm: we will also talk about alibaba going were netflix has not. it has bring that it is bringing its own streaming service to the
