a downgrade sends boeing stock into sharp decline and it drives wall street down with it. also on the show fighting in libya drives up the price of oil as investors that worry about supply disruption. and a code of conduct for a brave new world and europe make systems ethical. welcome to d.w. business i'm joined on in berlin thanks for joining us a mixed finish to wall street as investors wait on hundreds of corporate earnings reports a jew later this week but one of the day's big losers was boeing its stock dropped by more than four percent over friday's announcement that it would cut production of its seven three seven max aircraft several analysts are predicting lower profits amid continued fallout from the two recent fatal plane crashes they're saying
3:03 am
reputational damage as well as the max's ability to sell it could eat into market share in the long term. joining us now is our financial correspondent yan's quarter and wall street hello good to see you so we have an unfortunate makes here of a downgrade production cut so the prospect of financial liability for those two fatal crashes is a very a way out for boeing. at the moment there are not really that many good news surrounding boeing and looks like it will take much longer to actually deal with the issues was the seven three seven eight planes and that is not just true for boeing which lost by the way about four and a half percent in value here on monday that alone cost the dell jones industrial average about one hundred nineteen point so without boeing actually we would have finished the day to the upside but we also hear from more and more airlines

american for example saying that it will take much longer to actually get the planes going they're talking about ninety cancellations per day we also got a downgrade for southwest airlines also. facing some trouble and we also saw stock prices of those decreasing here at the beginning of the week a gloomy day for the aviation sector but stay right where you are again while your input on the next story and that's because fee at chrysler is teaming up with electric car maker tesla not to work on more electric vehicles but to comply with the european union emissions rules starting next year the e.u. will impose an average fleet limit of ninety five grams of carbon dioxide per kilometer analyst's wired last week that fia chrysler was the automaker with the highest risk of missing the targets but the rules allow car makers to join forces sophie at chrysler will count zero emissions test the cars as part of their own

fleet bring that average below the limit. now yes i have to say this is a slightly it jarring now is on moscow's often touted his vision of a carbon free future is a healthy other car makers watered down their own emissions figures really the way ficker really the way forward. well if you look at tesla you have to consider that this company is facing a huge debt load and we do not have any official hundred numbers yet but some wall street analysts are expecting that tesla could get about five hundred million dollars from chrysler for that deal so that is money that certainly can they use and then it is a controversial topic we do have emission trading if you look at their big industrial corporations especially in europe so that's the big debate actually
3:06 am
companies with those higher costs and so it is not that it does not come to a price for fear of chrysler easier so that. it was facing this higher cost that companies actually might consider to produce less emissions so it's a it's a tricky and very controversial topic at this point but if you look at few of chrysler and ford tesla at least business wise there seems to be a win win situation a balancing act for a fee at chrysler and tesla thank you very much and carter on wall street and it's all eyes on libya as of the continued unrest threatens to reduce oil output on the world market the threat of supply disruption send the price of oil climbing to five month highs the prospect of protracted conflict has investors place for racing for more price. the fighting in libya sending shock waves far beyond the capital of tripoli and it could soon have an impact on

global energy supplies as well. libyan oil fields like this one produce around a million barrels of oil a day and the renewed fighting is threatening to disrupt output. for opec members at least that's good news the organization of petroleum producing countries scaled back production at the end of last year in an attempt to raise oil prices and so far it's worked well prices have rallied by around thirty percent since the beginning of the year we do want to stabilize the markets and keep them stable i think we're getting to a stage where the inventory is are starting to stabilize and come down but there's still significantly above what i would consider normal levels. however the block is being tight lipped about any plans to expand output after its next meeting in june if the fight for tripoli impacts libya's oil production that's likely to drive up prices a temptation for oil producing countries to open the taps that's because current
