to be straightforward with you. 2021 has been one for the record books because the average is the rollup double digits this year. and if you're on a see what you want to figure out why the answer simple. the markets took such a beating in 2020, that there was pretty much nowhere else to go. but up in 2021. now sure there was shakiness, as at times as you mention. but the global economy began to finally open up in 2021 . and that could not be said in 2020 businesses. they reopened their doors office places the employees were coming back, streets were beginning to fill up again tourism returned. and it seemed that with the combination of global central banks, maintaining supportive measures strong, corporate earnings. and very importantly, the roll out of mass, coven vaccinations, shifting public health protocols. then you have yourself, what you're seeing today. optimistic investors throughout wall street and the global markets. the s and p 500 up 27 point one percent this morning for the year on piece words 3rd street, positive year. the dow and nasdaq heading towards their 3rd straight annual gain as

show you where i live. hello, thought killed ella. she is a so called a i one of 1500000 housekeepers in the capital. i've been living here for 7 years. boone one cham wrong lives in a small storage room. it's green and dry and above all, it has a bit of daylight. above her is the 1st class apartment complex. renting in apartment fair costs around $2500.00 euros a month. one chung rung could never afford that. she works 10 hours a day and earns only $670.00 euros a month. oh no matter how much you wish for something, it won't make it come true. a little hyphen coldly, as long as i can earn a living and put a little money aside. i'm happy so high. she would. those with enough money on the other hand are greeted at the front door by the sound of violins. tongue. rito is

a real estate agent and shows us a 325 square meter luxury apartment, which goes for 5000 years a month. the 6 room still need an occupant, but remain empty for now. oh, conger imagine my e g people preferred to buy single room apartments at which are located on the outskirts of the city. that license i am for ha, ha ha ha. the credit conditions aren't favorable at the moment her. that's why a lot of people can't afford big apartments like this tremendous ya. if the real estate prices are way above their budget since the consolatory, huh. the apartment looks like you museum gathering dust. the corona virus crisis hammered the real estate market to the point of collapse. pung, rusito has been looking for occupants for months now. in august, we still sold more than 10000 apartments. but in september, it was only 4000 real estate sales or vital to china's economy and account for

around 25 percent of the country's g, d p. but the housing market has been derailed and it's causing real estate companies to go deep into debt. now the chinese government is starting to step in and take control of the sector. wow, that's had over to europe and it's a year since breaks. it took full effect when the u. k. left the e. u single market and customs union. that 8 came with predictions of disaster for the british economy. 12 months later, how as the country coped in december last year, as britain ready to itself for a hard break, that prime minister boris johnston addressed to parliament in his typically confidence dial absolutely no doubt that from january the 1st this country is going to prosper. monitoring this yet, but the reality is the country's woes began almost immediately. britain's chemicals,

electrical equipment, machinery, metals, minerals, and textile sectors became hopelessly entangled in the trade deals, so called roles of origin. any goods arriving in bra and from abroad, and then exported into the e you incur accustomed levy and britain supply chains rely on a vast number of parts source from outside the european union. thousands of trucks trying to exit the u. k. were tied up in the red tape. there is no good in this situation as serve is for me and too much you piper walks too much way words all the time is right and this is not, not good. then in september the u. k. is petrol palms ran dry fuel deliveries from the e. u stalled. in a shortfall of european drivers who had left britain contributed to the perfect storm, the results, national shortages of foodstuffs and other retail products. independent economists expect the u. k. gross domestic product to drop by 4 percent. as

a result of regs in the coming years, exports have already fallen. where's e u country to actually expanded their exports to the rest of the world? the u. k. has not, we've been performing very badly. so in that sense, at least so far, at least break it has, has clearly failed to deliver. so far, the british government has not been able to deliver its brags, it promised. that's why some whole show 60 percent of britons believe brags it has done more harm than good. australia's government fails to set out concrete plans earlier this year for reaching its climate goals. disappointing international observe as the cop climate summit. still many businesses, their c carbon neutrality as an opportunity, australia successful wine sector is no exception. the tub milk winery in the northeastern part of victoria has been around for a 160 years,
