there has been a major breakthrough at least temporarily in the u.s. china trade disputes. the u.s. and china caught the truth. they agreed to delay any trade tariffs for at least 90 days while they hold talks to discuss differences. it's an incredible deal. it would go down as one of the largest deals ever made. >> an incredibly positive impact on farming. industrial products. every type of products. >> we had breaking news from overnight. china has agreed to reduce and remove tariffs on cars coming in to china from the u.s. currently the tariff is 40%. the trade truth is oil prices against these oil prices.

they are agreeing to cut oil production but just this morning it said it will leave the cartel in january. it has been a member for 67 years. we are now back from the brink. stocks looking to soar at the opening bell. the s&p up 50 and a quarter. and the nasdaq is up hundred and 79 in change. they join us on the breaking market news this morning. we are looking at quite a rally. there is a big piece in the wall street journal that talks about the fact that the chinese are making big platitudes in premises. do you believe them. great news however. exciting to be with you. 500 points higher.

as the president had promised there would it be any new tariffs come january 1. they will mergers -- reduce their auto tariffs. the question now is can last. just as the politics have given us at this rally i think of the politics could potentially take it away. we've heard as companies from drawer ford and gm. that was of course a retaliatory move. we have not gotten confirmation on that though. just the president's tweet at this point. what he make up some of the deal points. the force a transfer transfer of technology to chinese companies. it is an issue that is a dangerous opioid that affects a lot of companies.

they are saying they are going to deal with us on that. prompted a lot of concern among investors big and small. they hate taxes and uncertainty. and tremendous uncertainty to your point. any element of clarity in the amounts of uncertainty. and use the markets are stuck. they cut all tariffs. it would be up to 2000 points. that's the? of course. the trade goes today. it's monday. soybean prices going to the roof this morning. obviously if you look at a soybean production and exports they go down to zero. almost 2% jump this morning. i wonder exactly how much these markets have been held down by this uncertainty.

look at those images there. and that is what we are following now. as you can see we have a major rally on our hands. based on what happened at the g20. the s&p up 49 and a half. tech heavy nasdaq. also there was this coming up. marriott still at dealing with the fallout from the second largest private sector and act in the. >> for a company like marriott to not be affected. and then to not report it this is huge. so what is marriott's excuse. why did they stop at it sooner and have a chance.

marriott is still dealing with the fallout of a huge security breach involving 500 million * word gas. it missed the chance to stop the hack years earlier. they were aware of a much smaller hack in 2018.

we thought it wasn't that big of a deal. we've seen this happen was so many other breaches. unfortunately now as consumers we just need to pick up the pieces and try to figure out how to best protect ourselves i think a credit freeze is the best thing we can do now given what we know because we really want to prevent unauthorized accounts been opened in our names. this is a reminder that privacy fears go beyond technology. we've been beating up the big tech companies for their lack of protecting our privacy and in this case because these are hotel guest passport information was also compromised it says that marriott should pay the cost for new passports for those affected. well that happen. this is good to be an interesting test in europe for example of the new gdp our regulation which technically could find companies like marriott up to 4% of their global revenues it doesn't

seem like experts think that marriott will face that stiff of a penalty but it's really the first test of this new european lot which goes much further than u.s. law when it comes to data breaches. there is a lot of calls have stricter regulations here in the u.s. is just a such a competent issue i think what's most important for all of us to realize. let's control what we can. this can include freezing your credit. and also checking up on your credit regularly. changing passwords that might have been affected and making sure that you're not using the same password on your marriott rewards account as you are on something like your bank account. they are calling for a new data privacy law that are breach laws.

chinese were clearly part plaques. and clearly they didn't know how to deal with this guy. and the president is falling into the same trap. of course they are. the chinese blinked. a lot of parallels between this and the north korea negotiations.

do you think he sacrifice any of his leverage. here in the u.s. these farmers had so many soybeans and they're basically just praying and holding them right now. this is the challenge with using tariffs as the hammer. look the projection for next year is slower economic growth. that's not good for the united states so the president does have to has every president does. there was no is no kind of lunch free options here. he has two challenges. he has to pressure the chinese has to continue to do the domestic economic growth.
