a cautious assumption is that is going to last. markets seem to believe donald trump will reflate the and the bonds have already started changing a little bit. yetaybe, we don't know because we don't know exactly because his economic program was not that clear. so we still have to understand what's going to happen. stateseless, the united is one thing, europe is another thing. ofis not the president europe, he's the president of the united states. obviously the growth is quite slow in europe. which also has an impact especially on the property and casualty business. this is why the competition is

will be the result. that, quite optimistic. you have to be optimistic and cautious at the same time, so i am boat. we don't know what's going to happen. my view is that anywhere in italy, the reforms have to continue. i think that politics is something that can accelerate or slow down the reform, but at the end, reforms will be cheap as they have to. >> why is there a discount for the industry? >> it's mostly because of the low interest rate which definitely has an impact on the earnings of the companies. and then the regulations, to

comply with this regulation creates lots of new constraints. i think the regulation should be a little bit more flexible. ago we had issues in the banking industry, there was not enough regulation. we need regulation and we need good regulation. it should not prevent the to be a bit more entrepreneur. and we to do business need to be entrepreneurs. sometimes because of the regulation, we cannot be entrepreneurs anymore and i think maybe it to change a little bit. >> do you think it will change? what would be the catalyst?

lobbying? what needs to happen? some variation in the u.s. could be a catalyst. constant constructive dialogue with regulators. they listen to us and we listen to them. sometimes we like them to listen a bit more to us, but anyway, a constructive ilog. constructive dialogue. designsthe company that semiconductors, you're looking at fourth-quarter revenue coming in at 1.60 8 billion euros. the estimate was for 1.60 9 billion euros. adjustedh-quarter eps coming in at .21. a very narrow miss on the eps

what is your base case for this? >> with the yield shifting up in the u.s., it will be hard for the u.k. to resist that move. we've clearly got inflation coming through from lower cable rates. inflation is coming through anyway. i think we see higher yields, but today we make it a pause in that as people realize he just doesn't have the flexibility to push forward. one comment said the statement is obvious. you sound almost set up to be disappointed, given your grand plan that you have in mind.
