so called year of efficiency. but as the company on the right path will ask al correspondent and no novel. and how a belgian start up is bringing remote work to the shipping industry. if that time again, d w, business, welcome. it could be time to breathe a sigh of relief as worries over us banks appear to subside recent days, shook us businesses after several tech and crypto focus banks collapsed, threatening to take big companies down with them. but efforts to contain the crisis appear to be working stops in the us and europe rising on tuesday, including many u. s. banks, which had appeared to be under pressure. it wasn't all good news, though, with ratings agency. moody's cutting its outlook on the u. s. banking sector from neutral to negative. 13 sasha stephan of the frankfurt school of finance can tell us more from new york, sasha. thank you very much for joining us and stocks starting to turn around but
7:18 am
the outlook is down. can we breathe a sigh of relief, or is it too early? i mean, the, i think the immediate fallout from the collapse off as will be blank or what, but he gave that so to speak. but of course, the, the underlying structural core groups remain specifically in the banking sector. i . but i think as the, the immediate problem that we've seen, particularly over the weekend on friday, i think that that has been stopped for now. okay, why i'd like to dig into is, you know, the recent bank claps as were significant silva gate signature, silicon valley banks where they all rare one off events due to poor management. or is that something broader and systemic to be worried about. on the one hand, these things was very specific in the sense that for example, as the banker was a bank that has extremely highly concentrated and therefore very less diverse high
7:19 am
deposited base and a huge amount of a government long term government securities. but there's a broader problem in the banking sector in general, and that was coming from the also very lex monetary policy, specifically of the corporate. and that was basically a portfolio of, of, of deposit, so to speak, that has been collected under has increased a lot of the last couple of last couple of years. and this, and this is very short term. and then on the other hand, you have a relatively long term assets on the side, and that becomes a problem and a deposit of the amount of money back. ok. but i'm looking at the kind of bond investments that are the likes of actually been making that has been commentary saying that right, the raising rates too rapidly was a big problem. so looking at the u. s. central banks role, is this the feds fault?
7:20 am
i mean, of course, i mean we had to relax monetary policy for a very long time and then a very rapid increase and interest rate. but also that's what was coming with with some kind of warning though, i'm kind of forward guidance from the fed saying look, we have have been, have been, have been low for long, but know, given in place, we're going to need to adjust. and we're going to adjust quite a bit. and so on the other hand, the banks basically decide to tell them south, maybe even a while ago given depress margin, to take more interest rate risks. so with the, basically the, the knowledge that is going to increase, they should have taken action and terms of mitigating the interest rate exposure. so of course that wasn't part of the bank effectively. ok, and looking elsewhere, we saw european banking stocks taken knock. i'm thinking most prominently of commerce bank, for example, the big german bank. is there a reason to worry about other banks beginning to struggle in this kind of environment,
7:21 am
or is all of the panic basically over this point. currently specifically in the pentagon county was currently subsided because they had to reserve and government and basically given a blank check covering all depositors making it less likely that the depositors are going to run at the moment. i think the stock market decline of the european banks, german banks for was a little bit of exaggerated because the, the problems around much deeper in the us banking system. i think specifically for taking as the b as an example, given the size, it didn't have to adhere to the same liquidity rules. for example, as does the german dodge a bumper mass bank, which has a much, much larger quality position. my so from, from, from that perspective the banks are very different. this is why i'm not thinking that the problems in the us will become an immediate issue in the european banking

sector. ok, so at the moment, reasons perhaps to be optimistic looking ahead. stephan. thank you very much for that. thank you. let's turn to a massive new round of layoffs. meta the company behind facebook, and instagram will cut 10000 jobs as part of what the phone calls it year of efficiency in an email to measure employee c, e o. mark socket bucks at the new round of job cuts would affect middle management positions, and thousands of other roles would not be refilled as the u. s. tech sector, braces for an economic downturn. this comes off to metal already slashed $11000.00 jobs in november. let's go to court on this year and why a 2nd wave of job cuts daniel markup are going to so may more actually appointed to a new economic reality, pointing to geopolitical tensions also to the higher interest rates. and you could to translate that into there is no free lunch anymore. there isn't money just for
7:23 am
the graps on the streets of money with higher interest rates, cost something. and that is definitely a being certain burden for the technology industry. probably overall that in general, when it comes to facebook, i mean, the whole market has cooled off quite a bit, and all of that mean a lot of pressure for facebook. and so the mother company, madam. okay, but sometimes we can impute something from these kinds of decisions. does this tell us anything about matters, new strategic outlook, going ahead into this year of efficiency at any markup, i wasn't too specific about that with this latest announcement of a job cuts. but what we do know is that meta is investing heavily into the so called better worth, i mean, that's also why the company have renamed itself from facebook to
7:24 am
a meta. but this transition costs a lot of money reality laps. that's the division that is responsible for developing the met averse and that part of the business last, almost 14000000000 dollars last year. interestingly enough, by the way, there was one area that is obviously all up for those job cuts the meaning lower costs. what street actually are we acted in a very positive way? the stock of metal was up here on tuesday by 7 percent. and since mete announced the 1st round of job cuts early november's since then, the stock of meta has more than doubled. okay, we'll just when we thought the job cuts will over another weight comes in quarter. thank you very much. now to some of the other global business stories making the news g p t for keeps getting more intelligent. the new version of the chat bought can outperform. 90 percent of humans on standardized tests and scores, even higher on a bar exam,
