over there. i'm just going to get rid of this on the bottom. this is looking at existing home sales. this the outpacing we were talking about. you were talking about typically new homes being pricier than existing homes. that's been driving that particular trend. something else i wanted to mention it, this is the largest luxury homebuilder in the united states and toll brothers is beating estimates. the market for costlier home is holding up. company says its deliveries were up 9% and the average $855,000 is aof significant increase year over year. if you look at the other homebuilders, they are seen a lift here. it's a pretty broad left across the industry before new home

sales. that is emphasizing it. what about the broader markets? julie: we've seen a lot of strength in the market. we've got a gain of about 1%. what interesting is nothing takes -- significant has changed since yesterday. we're talking about the federal reserve being more aggressive in the market have been pricing and. this is a pretty sizable rally. financials of it helping to lead them of the gains we of been watching. one laggards that i wanted to mention is best buy. those shares are lower on a couple of things. they trailed estimates and there is the departure of sharon maccallum, the cfo and chief it in a straight of officer. she's been instrumental in the

turnaround at best buy. mark: we have a rally here as well. the euro is at a two month low against the dollar. every single industry group on the stoxx 600 is rising today. again, there are loads of earning to tell you about. europe's biggest home improver is kingfisher. they had better than expected quarterly sales. improvet should following today's figures because of the pdq strength. it says early in the transformation program is not being achieved or exceeded. it's a busy day for deutsche bank. they are investigating whether it's inflated the value of

trading. get along those equities. it's a unique condition that i think is defined by the sort of collective currency in the process the emerging markets are undertaking right now. this processoes leave us? where is it going to take us? michael: i think there is a competition between the major developed market central banks. as i was mentioning earlier that because the yields are so low in the eurozone and japan, that does putting structural cap on certain weakening trends. i don't think i see the euro going to parity with the dollar.

seen out of we have the fed is an incredibly important message. basically, they have a global calculus. so long as the euro is low, interest rates in the u.s. are cap. the dollar is the tightening mechanism. the fed has to have a global calculus in developing its policy. you are going to get a more volatile narrative over the next several quarters. the amount of information they have to process is that much more complicated. currency ande china data is much stronger coming up, that will help to destabilize. it's going to lean on the fed in a very serious way. mark: we spoke to the barclays chief executive earlier.
