season. but come to do business i want to get jones good to have you with us u.s. treasury secretary steven man who has phoned the hips of the country's six largest banks over the weekend to discuss steps to kamarck it after a week of dramatic losses on wall street a new chain called the chief executives of goldman sachs bank of america j.p. morgan chase morgan stanley citigroup and wells fargo who according to a statement confirmed that they have ample liquidity available for lending the calls came as u.s. stock markets experienced their worst week since the two thousand and eight financial crisis uncertainty over the partial government shutdown has added to concerns key indices tough wiped out all their games for the. for a what's driving the markets in these last few days of the year i'm joined by two

pundits jim bellew my colleague of course will phone call do you think come markets well i mean cerned about the liquidity that he had to discuss with those six banks yolles in the u.s. that he spoke with yesterday and of course today he'll be having a meeting with the leading market participants in the u.s. regarding the current market volatility among other things and saw investors are wondering if there's more to be concerned about not really reassured at this point so everybody's i actually kind of wondering they want to be probably listening in on those phone calls and that's the issue right now i mean those phone calls is quite an unusual move in are not is necessarily instilling confidence there and that's certainly when you have that back backdrop of that government shutdown which i mean we see it every year but this year is somehow different i mean the last more than twenty thirteen and that was the one during the obama administration that when white point two percent of the g.d.p. that year so. in terms of this one it is very probably bad for the market because

it comes at a time when the market is already volatile that wasn't the case in twenty thirteen and investors have enough to be concerned about and now they actually have this one thing to also worry about and i think that's the issue at this point is the timing is terrible at the at a time when december is actually a great month when bester is normally but this is sort of like the words december in years except for of course the financial crisis in two thousand and of course december isn't over just yet we've got the christmas season now we're coming up to new year do you think this could be resolved before the end of the view well i mean it's going to be a vote on the twenty seventh of the december that's when a decision could be made and it doesn't look very likely because of course as sort of an issue with that wall border wall with mexico and trump is not very willing to compromise on that and it makes it can supposedly pay for it anyway oh i mean he wants now his own government to pay for it and nobody is going to really probably come to an agreement on that one at least not until the end of the year. to ponder thanks so much for joining me in the studio. pan-european exchange operate
