hunger crisis, it will be a global emergency that increases that significantly increases the number of hungry people across the globe. what kind of dangers are we talking about manifesting from this crisis? we all think of starvation, but there's also a political instability. see if there's a bit of significant amount of research performed on the relationship between a political instability, riots, protests and hunger. there is little causal evidence evidence to demonstrate a causal link between hunger and political instability, except in one case. and that is when that hunger is driven by an acute, it increase in food prices that results in working class people no longer a for a able to afford bread. and that when you begin to see the types of protests that we witnessed in 2008, when there were riots and over 20 cities across the globe because people could no

adult ukrainians will quickly receive work permits over to markets now and shares in tesla, seeing a significant boost monday on plans for a stock split. it would be the 2nd in company history for more and that was koreans quarter on wall street. yes. first off, can you explain to our viewers? what is a stock split and why is ellen moscow targeting a 2nd one? yes or steven? i mean, if you have a stock split, what happens is that you could increase the amount of shares on the market on one side, on the other side to decrease the value of the stock. so let's say for example, we see a stock split in the ratio of 2 to one. that's probably what to test wants to do at this point. so if, for example, you own 10 test stocks, a $1000.00 each, that's worth $10000.00. so with the 2 ones the stock spent, you don't just have 10 shares, but 20 shares, but only worth 500 bucks at the end of the day. it's also worth $10000.00. but

psychology is at play here and makes seem to be cheaper for market participants, especially retail investors are of the value for those already holding. the stock remains the same, but perhaps more retail investors come in. wall street really seems to like this. why is this such a winner today on wall street? it was a huge booster for the test stock and up by 8 percent on the day when we also heard that tests actually had to shutdown and production and sign up for now. a dave in moscow make to the announced the via twitter that he might have been infected with the virus once again. but yet it was a very good paper test. i mean for once, if you have a stock split that does show that management is confident that they believe at least the stock will go up even further. and then if you look at the history books the last time and 1st time, also that test lead to stocks,

but that was in august of 2020. in the 3 weeks after tesla announced the stocks that the stock was up by almost 80 percent. so also now i'm obviously wall street believes that the announcement itself could drive the stock even higher. and finally, the whole stocks that probably won't happen before october ryan's court following a latest with tesla from new york. thank you very much ins. and before we go, here's a reminder of our top story. this, our prudence war in ukraine continues to weigh on food prices, the former director of the world food program, earth or, and cousin tells this program that sustain price pressure has the potential to become a global emergency. and that's it from me and the business team here in berlin. you can find out more about these and other stories online,
