11:20 pm
a 30 percent stake. i'm stating by unit. now chancellor will have sholtes is government is poised to increase at stake above 50 percent, giving the government a controlling interest. full nationalization is also under discussion, but for that to happen, uniform finish parent company for t m. majority owned by the finish government would have to give its approval. finland recently announced its own multi 1000000000 euro energy sector, bailout b. my gun and soccer you had on last month. you know, at the recent strong price fluctuations in the electricity derivatives market mean, the government has to take quick measures to ensure market stability. malia went on well done. it while the owner was delayed. the government's economic policy ministerial committee has advocated for a 10000000 euro stability package for companies producing electricity and finland to cover their acute liquidity means ottoman. got mixed. but finland has made it
11:21 pm
clear. they'll not be putting up bailout money for uniform. for now, fortune is still the majority shareholder in the energy supply. so it appears that unified only chance of survival could be the german government, acquiring a controlling state. the international monetary fund expects a stronger economic downturn world wide in the 3rd quarter to point to continuing locked downs in china. supply chain disruptions and inflation. the i m app expects many countries will slip in the world with a recession. next year, the world bank issued a similar warning, adding the threat of global recession is rising. well for more unless let's bring in our market correspondent young's quarter in new york. now, yes, i know it's not just the world bank talking about a global recession. what more can you tell me? it's not just an economist, sir, ringing the warning bell, but to him also,

11:24 pm
a rally achieve it to, to actually achieve a soft landing and that thus, also not would be the case this time around. the federal reserve, for instance, says probably waited for too long. at some point, we might get inflation under control. if we hit interest rate, some on demand, let it be in europe, that'd be here in the united states. but at some point we might get inflation under control. but the price is pretty high because the price of the game at this point seems to be a recession at what time ever. getting the harsh truth from yawns, court on time for the weekend. thank you so much. and now to some of the other global business stories making this euro zone inflation has reached another record. high prices in august increased 9 point one percent compared to a year earlier. according to the latest figures, consumers and businesses have been hardest hit by costs for energy and groceries,
