world's attention to internet security and china. i'm joined now by craig is the markets analyst with the firm in london it's good to have you with us let's start off with this decision from tick tock is it fair to say that this is about more than just hong kong. absolutely hong kong i think is a casa list that's going to be the catalyst for many issues i think the tween china and countries around the world nothing takes off is just now so the former is one issue i think it's long been known. but it's been a lot of home a very long but it's long been known as an avenue of potential concern it is something that it's a company has tried to address very very early on and even right now the reaction to this particular situation has been very rapid it's not that long ago china actually imposed they had these national security measures they've been very fast

to announce these changes and it's quite clear that they want to take a huge step up from the situation said only trying its very best to avoid being caught in the crossfire between china and the rest of the world. is that things like as we know has seen major growth in recent months as long as it's been around it would like to i.p.o. in the coming months. is it still a strong position given that kind of growth given its projections or has some of these recent. i guess it's really drawbacks these the removal from india has that taken in the wind out of its sales results mention the pump a 0 remarks just recently. will the others is there's no such thing as bad news but i don't think this is necessarily true with regard to take sockets growth has been incredible over the course of the last 12 months and but say killa but the last thing it wants to do is be cool so open in they screw kind of game the last thing it wants is for the countries to be looking at it will drain whether it is

a national security threats wondering how much influence the race from the chinese regime one of the time when there is incredible scrutiny over many chinese firms. as we've already said it's this is a kone which is effectively split itself into 2 already how's want to operational good different name in china and in the one outside of china is outside of china very ones much once the message to the rest of the world that this is not something that's hope for chinese influence but there's always going to be suspicions because ultimately it is still a chinese company so the file that he has acted so quickly it does suggest that it does have own and goal that house belonged in speculate that for example as you just alluded to that it is going to look twice p.o.'s some point in the not too distant future the last thing it wants is to be dragged into this into this very difficult relationship between china and a growing number of countries i don't think it want to distance itself as much as most will allow the growth to continue allow its popularity. right gregory lama

not gone very well at least of the civil rights groups are saying that facebook was not really open for the demands for example to have a top executive it's a facebook installed was a civil rights of background which is a regular independent audit so it sounded rather disappointing and the civil rights groups were saying that basically facebook used it as a p.r. stunt but it's not willing to really change on wednesday we will by the way get another audit from facebook published in the stock price that just by the side reached all time intraday high in tuesday session. in new york thank you. and the other business stories making headlines. new york regulators say deutsche a bug has agreed to pay $150000000.00 to settle claims that it broke compliance
