minutes young. boys has an hour and a beauty. pageant all. the feats in the pantheon of the great tennis certainly he's one for the ages and her new. book the fuck. is called my tender for the ages starts december twenty second on g.w. . investors in europe are kissing the cheap money goodbye best the e.c.b. puts an end to its quantitative easing program we'll tell you why banks are applauding the decision. also on the program tit for tat spat the conflict over arrests that executives between canada and china escalates. as

a second canadian citizen appears to be under custody. and they can't find a great deal or job so they go from state to state in their trailers and mobile homes or see how work chapters are becoming an alternative for companies offering seasonal jobs across the u.s. . it's time for business on the w m how you got us welcome to the program the european central bank just announced the end of its massive and controversial bond buying program known as quantitative easing by the end of the summer the e.c.b. believes the eurozone economy no longer needs central banks supports to grow in total the e.c.b. has bought government bonds and corporate bonds worth two point six trillion euros since the program started back in march twenty fifth back then the entity invested to strengthen weak eurozone economies suffering with deflation critics say the program let government simply minimize borrowing costs instead of making reforms for their countries. our financial correspondent conduct who is in is in frankfurt

where the e.c.b. is headquarter and has been following the decision for us comes out hi it's good to see you again well the reactions we saw in the main indices actually show us there was no surprise there were barely noticeable. that's true but the e.c.b. had a couple of things to say which were new and which were quite interesting for the markets for example the e.c.b. said and i quote this because it sounds a little bit complicated it will continue reinvesting in full the principal payments from maturing securities it purchased under the asset purchase program for an extended period of time and past the date when it starts raising the key e.c.b. interest rates which means at least until the summer of twenty nine excuse me twenty nineteen of course next summer and this means yes the e.c. b. is ending its money printing at the end of this month it's not going to print fresh

money and buy bonds for this money but it will continue to buy bonds whenever some of the bonds that it's holding expire the money that it gets from you know this expiration will be reinvested in bonds and this means that of course the e.c.b. is making this phasing out of its quantitative easing program very very slow critics of this policy many of them here in germany will say like that like this the e.c.b. is not shrinking fast enough its huge balance sheet and we know that not only people here in germany but banks all over the eurozone or at least some of them struggled with this monetary policy we saw some of their shares up even before the announcement what does this mean for euro zone bags. well for the banks this announcement and this ongoing monetary policy is a bit of

a double edged sword of course the banks do profit also from lower interest rates because it keeps the economy going something the banks need but especially you know old school european banks that rely heavily on high interest rates with their traditional business models they want to see. foster ending off that monetary policy they want to see higher interest rates rather sooner than later and that's why of course especially here in germany the criticism of the e.c.b. and his monetary policy will probably persist it's the slow and of american who isn't following it for us thank you very much is it a tit for tat chinese authorities are now investigating another businessman from canada michael spade or is the second canadian citizen to get in trouble with chinese authorities after beijing detained former diplomat michael kors break on monday the two cases appear to be retaliation for the detention of main one so

a rule change to introduce higher emissions limits but an e.u. court ruled against it on thursday and in favor of france belgium and spain who had complained about the planned amendment it would have doubled emissions limits to one hundred sixty eight milligrams per kilometer decision means bad news for certain consumers and cowmen factors may have already made decisions based on new higher emissions them the court is giving the commission a year to make the necessary changes to go to avoid legal uncertainty. before we go when you picture campers and america you might think of hot summer road trip surrounded by romantic scenes from the wild west but in reality it's mainly european tourists who get to fulfill the sort of dream many americans traveling around and caravans do it because they can't find a permanent home or because they're more mobile and therefore more likely to find work for some traveling from seasonal job to seasonal job has become
