a dire water shortage amid the worst drought in over a century and a saudi women are eagerly anticipating the drive car dealers are just as impatiently awaiting a brand new group of customers. this is a business i'm christopher welcome the harder catalonia pushes for independence the more jittery the region's business community is getting now ratings agency fitch has warned it may downgrade catalonia sovereign debt rating that just one day after s. and p. issued a similar warning now the government in madrid has passed a degree helping companies shift their legal headquarters out of catalonia. catalonia spain's most well off region ten of the country's forty six saving banks headquartered here but for how long some businesses have already voted with their feet bank is the country's third largest lender it announced on friday it will move its headquarters from barcelona. and it's not the only one saturday spain's fifth

largest bank has already got the movies in its new headquarters will be in an accounting on the east coast analysts say the unknown surrounding the region's future when the stakes are high likely they're going to judge us by the list of spanish bonds a rise in interest rates an increase in the risk premium and the possible hole to foreign investments in catalonia and spain other consequences of the risk posed by the political and economic situation they were just approved in the. and here at barcelona industry week companies with operations in catalonia have been expressing their concerns. not knowing the future of catalonia whether it will be inside or outside of spain makes entrepreneurs think carefully about their companies but there's a lot of what you will always go in the safest direction. no one was. able to

catalonia accounts for a fifth of spain's economy but financial markets have been shaken this week by fears that secession would undermine the euro zone's fourth biggest economy dealing a heavy blow to spain's finances and sending the catalan economy into a tailspin. to the united states and a mixed picture for the u.s. economy which shed thirty three thousand jobs in september the labor department blaming those losses on hurricanes irma and harvey which hit the south of the u.s. a few weeks ago a key indicator of the country's economic fortunes wage growth is picking up workers are on average being paid about three percent more compared with last year which is faster growth than analysts expected. and for more let's cross over to wall street and our markets man yes yes what did investors focus on today the weaker job data or the growth in wages. well to be honest

neither nor because september was an exception not the norm was the hurrican. and harvey that caused a lot of destruction and yes in general it's a good sign that wages are increasing but that is probably because of those hurricanes the fact that most of the. labor jobs and those are less paid and therefore you can't really read too much out of the wage growth either overall the economy seems to be rather strong during that week we got a good report from the manufacturing area from the u.s. car industry so at the end of the week this jobs report didn't really count that much and yet the asian juggernaut boeing is beefing up its investments in antonymous and electric hybrid planes tell us more. well we are talking so much about driverless cars and boeing seems to be one step

ahead or. they agreed to buy aurora flight sciences and that company is specialized in drone drones and pilot flying systems they already have a partnership going on with over so boeing now getting into this area with pilotless flight systems and we can expect that a lot more money will now flow into that area gets caught in new york thank you. cape town in south africa has for months been in the grip of what some call the worst drought in over a century authorities are trying to make people more aware about water saving no car washes pools remain empty showers need to be shorter less frequent and the water is to be reused. in cape town tourists are having to save water as well at this hotel shower water is collected in buckets. as is the dirty water from

washing machines faced with drought hotels in cape town are trying to be practical soapy water for the plants is better than no water at all but with two and a half million tourists visiting cape town every year hotels are also the largest water consumers in the city and the current water scarcity is hitting the poorest the most. is the local every time they can't the water off i'm shocked they don't even tell me before they do it what can i do i need water for the children to cook and wash. the region is experiencing the worst drought in more than a century. the rainy season came but with little relief the water was not enough to replenish the dams and it's a worrying weather pattern that looks set to continue. even in twenty fourteen the dams in cape town were only seventy three percent full and the water volume has been decreasing since then this year the dams were only twenty percent full and at

the end of the rainy season the dams were only slightly more full than during the drought the previous year. cape town plans to invest almost twenty five million euros over the next two years to improve its work to pipelines which still cause a lot of water to be lost but they say loan will not be enough. for some more analysis let's bring in philip the veteran drabness burke is a correspondent for the mail on the garden newspapers philip this drought has been going on for months so how are people coping with the constant shortage of water. well not securely well ok so it's years struggling and suffering significantly not only on the personal level we see trouble in the baby factory sick too it seems trouble in the agricultural sector and of course the drought also extends over the larger parts of the country into the eastern cape which is quite dependent on

agriculture into the northern cape which is quite thin that's an agriculture and we have not found the ways to cope with that just like it or not what's taken amik tall this drought has taken so far. it's hard to tell we know that tens of thousands of jobs have been lost already just how media is hard to count somewhere between twenty and forty thousand people have already lost their jobs we know that upwards of ninety percent of businesses in their waist and cape that is across services manufacturing agricultural ninety percent of those businesses a sighting is the number one concern at the moment the world situation approximately fifty percent of south africa's total agricultural exports which of sites will explode for us come from the waste and most of those and distrait now and that's of course before the dams dry out its entirety not speaking of the dams the mayor of cape town says the day when all the dams will be unusable they zeroed

for that matter it's just six months away are authorities doing enough to prevent the scenario. not as such what's in place at the moment of issues such as reducing the pressure of the rule to reduce leakage just to very closely monitor and pieces find people who don't stick to the water restrictions but we know that that is not enough we know that ciro day is approaching so the plans that are being made at the moment is where exactly to situate looks at dam post how many soldiers you will need to protect those day posts and then how to manage the lines when people come with buckets to to collect the data direction of what. for the bed in johannesburg thank you so much for your insight. from south africa saudi arabia where the ban on women behind the whale has finally been lifted for women it means more freedom for car dealers it means an important new market has opened up
