airbus cloud nine emirates signs a deal to save the popular eight three hundred tall. air. apple wants to pay taxes donald trump's u.s. tax reform sparks the tech giants move to cough up tens of billions on profits. from. china prized the world's number two economy five expectations for the first angle of. all right time for business. come to the program the middle east's largest emirates is throwing airbus basically a lifeline for its troubled jets that a three hundred eighty amaris is buying twenty jets with the option to buy sixteen more airbus had said earlier this week that if it didn't close the deal with emirates it would end production off the jet altogether the airbus a three eighty lives to see another day emirates ordered thirty six of the super jumbos for

a total of sixteen billion dollars on twitter emirates c.e.o. shake. called the a three eighty a success story and a critical part of future success for his company and the united arab emirates the latest deal shows how confidently we're approaching the future and how determined we are to forge ahead dubai wants to keep growing and become a world class destination and aviation hub. airbus has manufactured and sold more than three hundred of the giant jets over the last ten years emirates has accounted for almost half of those orders. but production lines have been silent recently high fuel and maintenance costs have deterred potential clients leaving air bus without a single order for over two years and into production appeared minutes. the latest order puts new wind under the eight three eighty s wings airbus now hopes that

other airlines will follow him or its lead. to apple it's been stashing cash abroad for years to avoid higher corporate tax rates help that now the tech giant is bringing back that money to invest in the united states and save on taxes apple c.e.o. tim cook welcomes this move as a chance to create more jobs here is more our view is apple could have only been started in america and so we've always felt a deep sense of responsibility to give back we're not taking a position on the individual side. i think that's for others to to look here but on the corporate side i believe it will create jobs that will help middle class. time to bring in score correspondent on wall street yes welcome to the program so there are mixed reactions to apple and some very critical of the company saying it has much taken way too long of advantages of tax loopholes how's wall street

reacting to this talk of a pretty much stands at an all time high but if that's because of the takes announcement is doubtful over all the money that who is paying now they would have to to pay this money anyhow but probably further down the line and not right now and one of the big questions certainly remain what precisely apple will do with the money will they buy a big share will they increase the dividend will they pay down debt or will they really create tens of thousands of jobs this is still a big question mark at this point and we still do not know about the second quarter of an assembled at least we do know that its search has been reduced to narrowed to twenty locations tell us more about that. down to twenty or maybe to nineteen because one of those twenty cities is toronto so that would be

a non us location and it is kind of unlikely that it will go was this place altogether it is pretty a double edged sword because on one side amazon is promising direct forty thousand jobs and the boost to the local economy whichever place they choose but on the other side amazon is also asking for huge tax incentives for example new york into a jersey is offering seven billion dollars tax breaks or whatever community will get their heads headquarter will also play pay dearly to convince amazon to move the second or to build the second headquarter over there and we will see if some of those communities can really afford having and isn't around right quarter thank you so much for your reporting from new york. german

supermarket chain needle is off to a poor start in the united states in its first year they are the company has only opened forty seven stores less than half of the one hundred that were originally announced only twenty more are expected to open this year as many of the locations it picked are suitable because the stores are too big and too expensive and sales have failed to meet expectations. new figures show the chinese economy gained steam last year that's the first annual increase in seven yes gross domestic product grew by six point nine percent and that exceeded economists forecasts on the government's target. the chinese economy is coming back around thanks in part to robust exports to europe and the us investment is also bolstering growth beijing has been spending a lot on infrastructure from roadways and railway networks to housing projects.

the head of china's national statistics office said last year's expansion amounted to stable development. don't look at any generally speaking the twenty seven economy maintain the stable and solid development of the past exceeding expectations this means more progress toward building a moderately prosperous society we should of course be aware that difficulties and challenges remain and that the improvement of quality and efficiency in production remains a daunting task the chinese government has been working for years on broader structural changes to investment practices the state led expansion policies of past decades are to give way to a more resilient consumer driven investment model buoyant consumer spending is already spring grove a sign that the government is on the right track. the next question is how best china wants to change its image from producing cheap to print quality bank const to that term china now correspondent daniel cope the fact frankfurt stock exchange has

more. well that's exactly what china ones they don't want anymore that this image of made in china is still you know being compared with cheap products but china has a problem they are pretty much true economies to production inside of the company and one that is really a growing very fast they were producing very good products they want to be number one when it comes for example to produce chips for cell phones or computers on the other hand there is still a booming business when it comes to those duplications that china has been accused for for many years and that and then again hurting and harming the image of made in china again. my colleague down there as a friend for stock exchange now turning to a different story in uganda are nonprofit organization is helping previously unemployed women to earn a living by providing basic health care products the women deliver the products
