why not. just its simple line on your mobile and free. music learning course. maybe see. stock markets tumble into the christmas holiday friction between the u.s. president and the federal reserve as well as a partial government shutdown sent the dow towards its worst december since the one nine hundred thirty one great depression. also on the show after weeks of yellowjackets demonstrations hampering business parisian strive to catch up on their holiday shopping on christmas eve. and ho ho ho santa claus keeps track of his reindeer with a state of the art of g.p.s.

transmitter called up. welcome to do business i want to get johnson berlin good to have you with us traders often say when wall street sneezes the rest of the world catches a cold on tuesday's trading on asian markets once again seems to show this shares on tokyo's nikkei index were down more than five percent that was its worst finish in nearly two years this after monday's a two percent plunge on wall street the worst christmas eve for u.s. stocks on record investors are increasingly worried about the future of the u.s. economy on twitter president on a trump lashed out at the federal reserve calling it the only problem the economy had she blames the fed's interest rate increases or bringing an economic boom to a halt traders are also worried about a budget standoff between trump and the senate which so far has refused to pay for donald trump's border war. so

a lot of issues there around christmas last long time wall street correspondent joins me now the studio last whatever happened to that traditional santa claus rally well it looks very much like santa is not in charge really on wall street these days it's more like a compass or maybe donald trump was because he is donald trump of course the. one person who has irritated the market over the last couple of weeks and especially the last couple of days first of all with his ongoing trade war with china that is weakening the economy then of course came the government shutdown just a few days ago and now his latest attack against the fed specifically calling possibly even for jerome powells removal and these are attacks that wall street takes extremely seriously and so that's basically what happened that's why markets reacted with a steep drop as i did i'm a little bit surprised when it comes to him lashing out against the fed because we're used to that he's been doing that so often maybe the tone is

a little bit but does it really warrant that market reaction it probably does because the tone is very important this particular case it is one thing to. criticize the fed for not doing what you want it's an entirely different thing to ask for the removal of the firing of the chairman of the federal reserve that would if it was possible it is not possible for him to fire drill hole but if this were possible this would destabilize an institution that has a one job and that's to stabilize the economy and the markets actually to jobs the fed has to mandates one is to strengthen the economy afford to a point where it can support full employment and the other one is to keep inflation low and they certainly don't have a political mandate and last may be just very briefly i mean many markets are closed today so we can all relax a little bit but the nikkei closed. at a one year low almost two year low know what's in store for us after christmas well

i don't see where there would be a catalyst for a turnaround for stocks here it seems to be going further down to see markets really going up you need something positive to happen that would possibly be the government shutdown to end and it doesn't really look like this right now as for the attacks on the fed it probably needs somebody to take donald trump's to put a phone away so that maybe he needs a little bit of christmas cheer and there's still time for that. thank you so much for this. well in recent weeks violent clashes between police and yellow vest protesters have prevented the regions from getting their christmas shopping done with big shopping centers boarded up on saturdays retail losses have run into several billion euros but on christmas eve a yuletide lull in hostilities allowed businesses to open up to try and recruit some of their losses. on believe of us money one of the city's iconic shopping streets and home to several large department stores including gallery lafayette and
