4:40 am
off with the news breaking within the last few hours the latest bad professor well let's start 7 off with the news breaking within the last few hours the latest bad rate cut by 25 minutes to a range of 1.5 to 1.75 percent rate cut by $25.00 to a range of 1.5 to 1.75 percent so is there any way to read these continued cuts other than a response to a slowing global economy so is there any way to read these continued cuts other than a response to a slowing global economy. yes i think there are many factors that are going into it . yes i think there are many factors that are going into it we have this bizarre split we have a president in the polls we have this bizarre split we have a president of the political elite telling us that the economy is strong even mr powell said that and little league telling us that the economy is strong even mr
4:41 am
powell said that and yet doing the things you normally do when an economy is weak that's the 1st kind of yet doing the things you normally do when an economy is weak that's the 1st kind of confusing piece of information but there are other reasons to cut interest rates a confusing piece of information but there are other reasons to cut interest rates for example helping the republicans and mr trump get reelected boosting the for example helping the republicans and mr trump get reelected boosting the economy by making credit cheaper that's also going on here economy by making credit cheaper that's also going on here even though the people playing these games will deny it i think there's an import even though the people playing these games will deny it. i think there's an important key factor we have a split economy in another way there's the key factor we have a split economy in another way there's the real economy where we go to work and we
4:42 am
produce things and so on and then there's the paper economy a real economy where we go to work and we produce things and so on and then there's the paper economy the stock market what has been going on is that the economy underneath this stock market what has been going on is that the economy underneath the one we all live in is very mediocre i mean i read the other day that the one we all live in is very mediocre i mean i read the other day that j.p. morgan chase is thinking of moving out of new york city to save money j.p. morgan chase is thinking of moving out of new york city to save money and the explanation was to prepare for the ongoing and the cuts and the explanation was to prepare for the ongoing and the coming recession so this is split between the real economy which is weak coming recession so there is this split between the real
4:43 am
economy which is weak and the stock market which is booming but here's the explanation the uk and the stock market which is booming but here's the explanation the federal reserve is pumping up the money supply you mentioned yourself correct federal reserve is pumping up the money supply you mentioned yourself correctly the quantitative easing disguised as stuff from the republican really the quantitative easing disguised as stuff for the republicans and now the lowering of interest rates what that does is pump up money make and now the lowering of interest rates what that does is pump up money make it cheap to borrow and you know we're doing the borrowing people who play the stock market cheap to borrow and you know we're doing the borrowing people. to play the stock market that's why the prices of the stocks have gone so much higher while the underlying is good that's why the prices of the stocks have gone so much higher while the underlying economy is so mediocre
4:44 am
that is a very dangerous dichotomy commie is so mediocre that it is a very dangerous dichotomy and i think we will look back on the fed's action as a worrisome sign be and i think we will look back on the fed's action as a worrisome sign they're more rigorous this did in keeping this is bubble gold always going then then they are and can confront it in the underlying problems of this economy so 2 this is a very dangerous thing the underlying problems of this economy so 2 this is a very dangerous dichotomy so well what happened in december if the fed given its very hawkish tunde i cannae so well what happened in december if the fed given its very hawkish tone this time if they decide to not cut interest rates again and the markets disappointed this time if they decide to not cut interest rates again and
4:45 am
the markets disappointed what will happen i think is that it's you're absolutely right the key question because what will happen i think is that it's you're absolutely right to the key question because it would then suggest that the game of keeping the bubble going has become too dangerous the federal reserve is not supposed to flood the money was it would then suggest that the game of keeping the bubble going has become too dangerous the federal reserve is not supposed to flood the money into this a system and act this is paper. you know the joke of mr powell those rich remark to keep the pension go you can keep the tax mix of the generation above the goal that is or that every of the teeth of the federal reserve every teacher. should know who teach who. by the daughters of all i have my life to live off i love you but you increase interest rates when the economy is weak not
4:46 am
one of the expanding you do that straight when the economy is weak not one of the it's expanding you do that in the moment of expansion is when you raise interest rates to slow the process in the moment of expansion is when you raise interest rates to slow the process down to build up the kinds of reserves you're going to need to get through all this down to build up the kinds of reserves you're going to need to get through our hard time the threat isn't this new and didn't we i know that it is piling more and more money on the on top of more top of more and more money it's nice while it runs up but when it runs down watch as money it's nice while it runs up but when it runs down watch out that's the out and that's the thing to worry worry about. so we also have in the 3rd quarter we are poor we see that the u.s.
4:47 am
economy grew at a rate of 1.9 percent which as we previously still report we see that the u.s. economy grew at a rate of 1.9 percent which as we previously stated outpaced the expected 1.6 percent rate but still well below where we were in q 3 to outpace the expected 1.6 percent rate but still well below where we were in q 2 meanwhile consumer confidence has now fallen to a 4 month low so what do you to meanwhile consumer confidence has now fallen to a 4 month low so what do you take away from these latest figures. well i think let's put them together with the number 8 the way from these latest figures. well i think that's put them together with the numbers from a few weeks ago indicating that the chinese economy was growing at about 6 from a few weeks ago indicating that the chinese economy was growing at about 6 per experience and which isn't. the low it was has it in has been in the low in a long time long time what i'm what you're seeing here is that the trade war
4:48 am
initiated by trump in the republican party here is that the trade will be or are initiated in the republican party is hurting both major players the chinese in one hand and the united states urging both major players the chinese in one hand and the united states in the other this is done mostly to get mr trump reelected but the cost in the other this is done mostly to get mr trump reelected but the costs we're paying on both sides are enormous that's why you had that bond the 4th we're paying on both sides are enormous that's why you had that bond the fog in china that worried people over the last couple of days and so on in china that worried people over the last couple of days and so on my guess is that we are going to see a building rage my guess is that we are going to see a building rage and anger at the economic costs that the world is asked to
4:49 am
pay and the anger at the economic costs that the world is asked to pay for a political struggle here inside the united states and the good for a political struggle here inside the united states and again let's not lose sight in china the rate of growth was 6 percent end let's not lose sight in china the rate of growth was 6 percent this last period in the united states 1.9 percent this last period in the united states one point. 9 percent for people who understand what that means the chinese economy's growth for people who understand what that means the chinese economy's growth and the american economy is in the ability to keep up is the most of the american economy is in the ability to keep up is the most important historical reality of today's numbers
4:50 am
a lot of assets important historical reality of today's numbers a lot of asset bubbles bubbling up all around the world better keep your watch on it's very worrisome professor bubbles bubbling up all around the world better keep your watch on it's very worrisome professor richard wolffe at the university messages amorous thank you so much for being here thank you sir richard wolffe at the university messages amorous thank you so much for being here. thank you. time now for a quick break but hang here because on the other side. time now for a quick break but hang here because on the other side as cryptocurrency has continued to climb in the public consciousness governments are taking notes as crypto currency is continue to climb in the public conscious and governments are taking notes on how to move forward in the states joins us in studio after the break to talk about the move forward in the states joins us in studio after the break to talk about consumer safety in the field and much much more and as we go to

4:59 am
eleven's joins me now to break down the latest so what are these latest numbers saying well kristie while we continue to extend its lead in the 3rd quarter of twitter well kristie while we continue to extend its lead in the 3rd quarter of 2019 and it now commands 42 percent of the smartphone market in china 19 and it now commands 42 percent of the smartphone market in china which is far above both local competitors in its u.s. competitor apple which is far above both local competitors in its u.s. competitor apple now if we take a look at the numbers specifically reports show that wall way shipped 41 points now if we take a look at the numbers specifically reports show that wall way shipped 41500000 smartphones in china from july to september marking a $65000000.00 smartphones in china from july to september marking a 66 percent year on year growth meanwhile apple sells in the region continued to fall and 6 percent year on year growth meanwhile apple sells in the region
5:00 am
continued to fall and apple's market share in mainland china dropped from 7 percent down to 5 percent apple's market share in mainland china dropped from 7 percent down to 5 percent so we see that even though there is continued criticism from the united states government chinese buyers so we see that even though there is continued criticism from the united states government chinese buyers are going even more towards why. all way and they're turning away from the american alternative are going even more towards wall way and they're turning away from the american alternative so what is the impact of these sales on the market specially for apple well this increase for so what is the impact of these sales on the market specially for apple well this increase for wall ways specifically comes at a really important time because as we've seen with the u.s. government they have wall ways specifically comes at a really important time because as we've seen with the u.s. government they have made no indication that they will be backing down any time soon and researchers made no indication that they will be backing down anytime soon
5:01 am
and researchers have even noted specifically they have spoken out and they've said it's dominant position gives it have even noted specifically they have spoken out and they've said it's dominant position gives away a lot of power to negotiate with the supply chain and increase its a wallet a lot of power to negotiate with the supply chain and increase its a wallet share with channel partners meanwhile not only are companies like apple share with channel partners meanwhile not only are companies like apple feeling the effects of this ongoing trade war and the u.s. government stance feeling the effects of this ongoing trade war and the u.s. government's stance on wall way but at the same time u.s. chip makers also stand to lose a lot and they count on wall way but at the same time u.s. chip makers also stand to lose a lot and they could you lose more than $56000000000.00 in the next 5 years just in revenue do you lose more than $56000000000.00 in the next 5 years just in revenue
5:02 am
if the united states keeps this ban on wall way and apple where you if the united states keeps this ban on wall way and apple where are they on the entire 5 g. race well it's interesting because apple is actually behind when it car they on the entire 5 g. race well it's interesting because apple is actually behind when it comes to these 5 g. phones and we've. companies like wall way and like samsung already 5 g. phones and we've seen companies like wall way and like samsung already putting out 5 g. phones and was kind of stayed behind and even with this new i putting out 5 g. phones and was kind of stayed behind and even with this new i phone 11 from apple they updated the camera which is what a lot of users were calling for phone 11 from apple they updated the camera which is what a lot of users were calling for but they still only had 4 g. technology but that's ok because their member but they still only had 4 g.
5:03 am
technology but that's ok because there may be a 5 g. i phone as early as 2020 now reported to be a 5 g. i phone as early as 2020 now reports that are coming out are saying that apple is mobilizing suppliers to produce its 1st of its that are coming out are saying that apple is mobilizing suppliers to produce its 1st ever 5 g. i phones next year with 3 flagship models also set to include 5 g. i phones next year with 3 flagship models also set to include the most advanced mobile processors available and leading edge screens not the most advanced mobile processors available and leading edge screens now apple is expected to ship more than $80000000.00 of these phones out which means that they aapl is expected to ship more than $80000000.00 of these phones out which means that they are pretty excited about it they think it's going to be really popular but at the same time there are concerns that they may are pretty excited about it they think it's going
5:04 am
to be really popular but at the same time there are concerns that they may be a little bit too late to the game and maybe by the time that they get their 5 g. phones out there be a little bit too late to the game and maybe by the time that they get their 5 g. phones out there their companies like wall way unlike samsung are already going to have the corner on the market or their companies like wall way and like samsung are already going to have the corner on the market so regarding the 5 to. technology can the u.s. what can you tell us about the upcoming f.c.c. so regarding the 5 g. technology can the u.s. what can you tell us about the upcoming f.c.c. vote so the federal communications commission is expected to have a vote on november 9th so the federal communications commission is expected to have a vote on november 19th where they will decide whether cellular providers here in the united states will be banned where they will decide whether cellular providers here in the united states will be banned from using government subsidies to buy equipment from chinese companies like wall way and from using government subsidies
5:05 am
to buy equipment from chinese companies like wall way and like c t e now the chairman of the f.c.c. released a statement in which he now the chairman of the f.c.c. released a statement in which he said specifically quote when it comes to 5 g. in america security week he said specifically quote when it comes to 5 g. in america security we can't afford to take a risk and hope for the best we need to make sure our networks won't harm can't afford to take a risk and hope for the best we need to make sure our networks won't harm our national security threaten our economic security or undermine our values our national security threaten our economic security or undermine our values now it's interesting because if this vote passes not only will it impact wall way in c.t.e. it will now it's interesting because if this vote passes not only will it impact wall weigh in c.t.e. it will also impact any supplier earning company that the united states government decides is and also impact any supplier earning company that the united states
5:06 am
government decides is a national security risk so it could harm the united states 5 g. network in the long national security risk so it could harm the united states 5 g. network in the long run rapidly changing environment richard love and thank you so much for breaking it down think you are on rapidly changing environment richard love and thank you so much for breaking it down thank you. thank you. the latest hack a bit point demonstrated to regulators that scrutiny and more regulation the latest hack of bitcoin demonstrated to regulators that scrutiny and more regulation does not equal to consumer safety the hack occurred due to an authorized x.
5:07 am
does not equal to consumer safety the hack occurred due to an authorized access to the private keys of bitcoins hot wallet it lost approximately $32000000.00 as to the private keys of bitcoins hot wallet it lost approximately $32000000.00 japan is one of the few countries where quick those are legally accepted form of papers japan is one of the few countries where quick those are legally accepted form of payment and they have been at the forefront of blocked train innovation the exchanges are governments and they have been at the forefront of blocked train innovation the exchanges are governed by the japanese financial services agencies but now analysts are questioning the scrutiny by the japanese financial services agencies but now analysts are questioning the scrutiny and whether this is healthy or not crypto analysts. argue whether this is healthy or not crypto analysts. argue that more regulation and more scrutiny does not ensure that its subjects have stronger protected that more regulation and more scrutiny does not
5:08 am
ensure that its subjects have stronger protection rather it could lead to a reduction in safety he said action rather it could lead to a reduction in safety he said the f.s.a. tightened enforcement significantly to prevent more hacks but they are not secured the f.s.a. tightened enforcement significantly to prevent more hacks but they are not security experts as far as i understand their main focus seemed to be more on k y c n n t experts. as far as i understand their main focus seemed to be more on k y c n a m l their scrutiny is the reason to put pressure on exchanges financially at melle their scrutiny is the reason to put pressure on exchanges financially and thus lose focus on security this comparison harkens back to zuckerberg stiff and thus lose focus on security this comparison harkens back to zuckerberg defense of libra where an reasonable amount of regular regular scrutiny actually dense of
5:09 am
libra where an reasonable amount of regular regular scrutiny actually distracts focus from innovation and consumer safety which they apparently claim tracks focus from innovation and consumer safety which they apparently claim is their primary focus with more on the latest in crypto we welcome back jeff is their primary focus . with more on the latest in credit though we welcome back jeffrey tucker editorial director of the american institute for economic research so recovery tucker editorial director of the american institute for economic research so regarding this our regulars actually focus on the wrong things when it comes to scrutiny and security running this our regulars actually focus on the wrong things when it comes to scrutiny and security and that they're focused more on k y c n n and this is putting and that they're focused more on k y c n n and this is putting an unfair burden on exchanges it's really true i mean if we had had an affair burden on exchanges it's really true i mean if we had had this
5:10 am
level of regulatory oversight in 2009 we would never some level of regulatory oversight in 2009 we would never have seeing because even come into existence we need permission lists environment of saying because even come into existence we need permission lists environment that allows experimentation that sort of thing the idea that regulators know block that allows experimentation that sort of thing the idea that regulators know block chain and crypto should work and should have oversight to wall the technology for a known crypto should work and should have oversight to while the technology for example is utterly ridiculous it's only entrepreneurs and innovators who understand that example is utterly ridiculous it's only entrepreneurs and innovators who understand this technology and these hackings by the way this is not a hacking of the core technology it's just technology and these hackings by the way
5:11 am
this is not a hacking core technology it's hacking of wallets and particular application it's hacking of wallets and particular applications and typically the code is always buggy and and. typically the code is always bugged and it's actually a good thing when things get hacked you know because then we can discover the problems and it's actually a good thing when things get hacked you know because then we can discover the problems and it's private markets that manage this well regulators only want to control and it's private markets that manage this well regulators only want to control they're not actually interested in our security actually inside yet all they're not actually interested in our security. yes so i.b.m. actually issued a report that says a central bank right now is actually very interested as so i.b.m.
5:12 am
actually issued a report that says a central bank right now is actually very interested in creating their own digital currency is as soon as 2025 but even if in creating their own digital currency sure it's as soon as 2025 but even if they do sell well and if they have actually changed because this will still be a centralized they do sell well and if they have actually changed because this will still be a centralized currency and nothing would have actually shifted in terms of monetary policy no i have grave doubts about i see nothing would have actually shifted in terms of monetary policy no i have grave doubts about the essential kryptos i don't blame them for wanting to keep up with the times and do the cool new thing the essential crypto i don't blame them for wanting to keep up with the times and do the cool new thing but actually you know by 2025 crypto is going to be voting but actually you know by 2025 crypto is going to be very advanced and there's so many private kryptos out there and so many very advanced and there's so many private
5:13 am
kryptos out there and so many private blocks same technology is actually think central banks are so behind the curve on the stuff private block train technologies i actually think central banks are so behind the curve on this stuff you know reminds me actually of the old days when e-mail was 1st invented you know reminds me actually of the old. it's when e-mail was 1st invented the government said we're going to have our own e-mail accounts and everybody will adopt them because the government said we're going to have our own e-mail accounts and everybody will adopt them because everybody trusts the government you know and it didn't work and they had to shut it down it was just silly everybody trusts the government you know and it didn't work and they had to shut it down it was just a silly thing because by this time there were already so many private e-mail services and private email services the thing because by this time there were already so many private e-mail services and private email services solve the problem of security of spam and they became amazing i think solved the problem of
