dependency on russian oil and tries to source more liquid natural gas from the united states. welcome to g.w. business i'm joined now the. signals from washington that another costly government shutdown could be avoided democrats and republicans have agreed in principle on a compromise and their long running budget dispute but the plan only includes a fraction of the money president donald trump wants for his border wall leading to the possibility he could veto it the u.s. has until friday to pass a funding bill without which hundreds of thousands of government employees would again find themselves without paying economists estimated of the last shutdown which lasted thirty five days cost the u.s. eleven billion dollars in economic activity that was twice the amount had asked for . let's bring in yes quarter on wall street and quarter there

you are the markets seem to be up on these on this news now investors do they think that the steel will stick. that's the overall feeling at this moment here on wall street in greece saw a pretty strong finish of blue chips up by a good three hundred seventy points or about one and a half percent there it's not always easy to measure cause and effect because we also had some other political news so to speak u.s. president donald trump hinting that he might be willing to extend the deadline when it comes to trade talks with china so they're probably also was a big reason why we saw the market trading to the upside but talking about this shutdown it is really almost absurd to see because a couple of weeks ago where we were right in the middle of the longest a shutdown in the u.s. history the markets traded to the upside so now we have hope that another shutdown

can be averted and the markets are up again your usual market madness there are now hang on for a second chance we'll get back to you now a short while ago president trant expressed his disappointment at the compromise here's what he had to say i'm not happy about it it's not doing the trick but i'm hearing things to it and when you add whatever i have to add it's all it's all going to happen i would hope that there will be shutdown i am extremely unhappy with what the democrats have given us. so briefly ends are we going to see more wheeling and dealing ahead. well we might but overall the feeling is that donald trump will sign the new legislation and time and then my tried to divert divert money from somewhere else to increase the funding for border security and i'm not saying that five billion dollars that's roughly

overall what donald trump is looking at is not a lot of money it is a lot of money but if you take it into perspective and see what share of the overall budget that it is actually not such a huge amounts at this moment the most likely outcome might be that donald trump will sign it and then try to find some additional from doing from somewhere else some key predictions there from the ends quarter on wall street thank you very much . well germany is considering importing more natural gas from the west ellen g. is the liquefied form of natural gas now once it's cool down to minus one hundred sixty degrees it has a much smaller volume making it easier to ship and trade around the world now the u.s. has long been the nach of the largest producer of natural gas but the country has only recently begun to break into the l.n.g.
