growth have to do with trump's tax cuts and moves to deregulate well i mean the tax cuts first of all they're going to phase out at some point and what we've seen in the past is yes lower taxes have been good for profits for u.s. corporations but the companies have not necessarily invested more they use them those tax cuts to buy a big stock good to increase their dividend a lot of the money has not been invested men also is the regulation i do not believe that those are the key factors that we see this healthy job market and as referred to earlier this trend already started about ten years ago thank you yes carter there on wall street for us. cybersecurity officials from around the world are meeting in prague and they announced
