4:12 am
there's a draghi put, qe put do you think we're being led down to have a violent reaction at some point? >> the biggest complacent things it's rejecting globalization, rejecting openness that clearly has implications for economic policies as well. it's politics we should be fearful of. >> we had -- root gentleman, there was in paris again, a big sign of reliever as well when he got in the lis. with the situation in spain. you have rumbling brexit as well we have gotten resurgence of three popularized situations which have led to a little bit
