3:07 pm
difference on the stock market. how unusualbout this is that we see this much enthusiasm from the government. the pressure to support communist stock market. can i call it that? >> i think that is fair. we are seeing students commanded to stand up and rally behind the stock market. but is that entirely fair sentiment. is it unusual, not really. they have been trying to prop up the stock market for many years now. basically the number one priority has been, besides staying in power, is propping up the country's economic growth. the way they have done that, and remember they have averaged 10% growth for the last 20 years, is to get a lot of cheap debt through the stock market or through the bond market. the really encourage country's citizens to enter the market and now we are seeing a desperate attempt to maintain that. scarlet:?

the greek prime minister has package. most of the wants $59 billion. -- it seems the greek proposal will not be enough it francois hollande priest the proposal. the greeks have shown a determination to want to stay in the eurozone because the program they are presenting his serious and credible. and because they are going to submit it to parliament which shows power, commitment, and i would also say courage. alix: the greek lawmakers may not be so enthusiastic. the proposals are similar to those greek voters rejected just last weekend. reporting the is u.s. is preparing cases against former deutsche bank import --

3:33 pm
for staying in the euro. when you want to stay in the euro as a country, you have to play by the rules of the euro and the euro is a community currency that were wires a lot of policy coordination and working toward a common task. what we see going forward is the greeks are coming around to that. the europeans are interested in theing everyone on board as currency is supposed to be irrevocable. there is give and take on both sides. there cannot be a write-down of greek debt at this point. we are negotiating in europe and not a trench to be delivered. the timing, how long there is an industry period, all of that is negotiable but a write-down is probably nonnegotiable for the european side and on the other side there has to be some reforms in greece and pension systems and these things.
3:34 pm
europe has done that. we did it in 2002 through 2004. all of our demography's are such to beension systems have adjusted to the new aging reality and the greeks need to do that in their economy. >> are you optimistic or pessimistic about greece staying in the euro? >> it is likely this will happen. thoughts for that happening have deteriorated over time but i have been saying for many weeks, all through the entire year that i think ultimately the greek people will choose to stay in the euro because a future for greece in the euro is a better future and everyone ultimately understands that. >> sketch for me what would happen with the economic consequences if they fell out of the euro. >> if you look at what is happening, if greece cannot rely on external funding and on some credit lines or funding provided by the institutions, they are down to a hard budget constraint. and the degree of
3:35 pm
tightening of fiscal policy will be a multiple of what we see if there is a new program being arranged. the reality will be harder without the program increased and it is with the program and the banks are now closed and they are scheduled to open it there is a new agreement and a new program. if not, the banks will remain closed and the banks will move into insolvency. there will be haircuts on depositors like we saw in cyprus and the reality will be a lot harsher than it is with the new program. the greek government and the greek people will understand that. central-- the banks are to this and it puts mario draghi in the center. is that a bad place to be? >> they have done a lot of unusual policy. interest rates down to zero, lending programs up to three years.
3:36 pm
it is a short lending program. they are buying government debt, gdp-weighted or balance sheet, -weighted. i have always been skeptical of such a policy. europeanooks at the decision where the fate of grace will not be determined by the central bank. the central bank has its role in -- to play. it is looking to the leaders to take the decision and they will behave accordingly. made bade ecb decisions or has it been dragged along? >> they are filling a gap that was needed to be filled. if you look at the first program in may 2010, buying greek debt without any conditions attached
3:37 pm
in my view was a mistake. i voiced that at the time but life moves on. we are in a world where week debt and the program has in there for five years. the cd is part of the troika or the institutions that determine conditionality. it would have been wiser the time to have the imf deal with the greek issue like with any country that has a payment problem. the imf would have looked into that sustainability analysis and they would have done a harsh analysis of that. they would have erred on the conservative side and there would have been a private sector involvement and a program that would have been highly conditioned lending and monitoring of the greek economy by the imf. without the involvement of the eu institutions, both the eu, the commission, and the european central bank, it would have been a much more rational program. there is much less political back-and-forth on the european side it -- and it might have

been a better program in my view. up, the fourth awakens. why they cannot get enough of flick. "star wars" i would be there if i was not here.

3:41 pm
in a while depending on the moment that you check. the dow the highest since may 8 and we might see some fluctuation in the next several minutes as we have seen actuation throughout the day. it looks like we will close at the highest and -- in at least a month or the averages. we are relatively safe in saying that. we have been talking about the 200 day moving average. we have seen a bounce above that level after following -- falling below. i want to bring this to a one-year chart. you can see back in october we moved more substantially below that 200 day moving average. look at anif you intraday basis and how the stocks traded over the course of these intervening days before popping back up. it has made a much more rapid round-trip. we will see what next week brings.
3:42 pm
a lot of this hinges not just on the charts but on the vote in greece and the votes around the eurozone and approval for the great proposal. we will be waiting on that. i want to talk about what is going on in the bond market. yields moving higher today pretty much across the yield what we areis looking at for the 10 year. janet had a leg up with yellen reiterating her position that rates will go up. this is a reminder of it. we're -- the 30 year has been pretty substantial. the two day move higher has been the most since 2013. here you see the one day. 3.2% is what we're looking at. notable today and contribute in two the day, the rebound we have seen an apple shares. they have fallen for the prior five sessions and more than 2%
3:43 pm
back to back, the one that we saw. 200 day are walking moving averages, let's look at that. also the near correction we saw for apple. high that we saw was back in february. then we saw the choppy, long decline of 9.7%. 10% is what we call a correction. here is the 200 day moving average. was happening, the average price over the past 200 days, we were saying that, too meet the line. touch it, and did not bounced above it. narrowly missing a correction and hitting that 200 day moving average travel. earnings are coming up not just for apple but for a lot of companies so it will be interesting to see how stocks trade.
