i think one of the 6 that education. changes access to the internet educational system to be tutored. and surely to run. this is bust the one business show you can't afford to miss for in washington coming up without support. in the next few days the fate of germany's largest airline rests in the hands of its shareholders we breakdown new founds a bumpy ride apple is also looking to switch to self sustainability as it plans to ditch intel chips in favor of it so we dig into the details of the move and the

latest innovations from the tech giant with a packed show today so let's go into it right in. and we begin with the big news from the airline industry as we've done as a peer's set to receive a $10000000000.00 bailout from the german government now this bailout package had been held up for several weeks as the airlines largest single shareholder dropped his opposition that shareholder billionaire businessman herman thiel had been threatening to block the deal as recently as last month his opposition though has faded as has found itself in a dire situation the airline lost $10300000000.00 in the 1st quarter of this year at the company's shareholder meeting on thursday lou lou found the board to chair carl loued with clay warned that voting against the deal would mean taking a big risk. you know. we have run out of money to this day we live on the

reserves we set aside during the good years but soon we will have used most of it without support. in the next few days so the chairman also addressed the terms of the deal which include the german government taking a 20 percent stake in the airline. yes it's firstly the states stake serves only to stabilize lou tons of the states quickest possible withdrawal one stabilisation has been achieved as part of our common business basis secondly there will be no political intervention and loved ones as business and thirdly the company will continue to meet its responsibilities to all stakeholders for the shareholders the employees for the customers and also for society and the environment. to take a deeper look at this situation let's go ahead and bring in boom bust investigative journalist ben swan now on the news of this deal who found the shares soared or why

did more markets actually react so strongly to this news. well the biggest reason they reacted strongly to it is because without this deal. it was essentially going to be insolvent within a matter of days as you heard in that sound bite there were they were really days away from this just to give you an idea of what this deal consists of as you said it's about $10200000000.00 in terms of a cash infusion into the company but it also allows for 20 percent stake by the government and 2 of the board seats after be given over to the german government as well now we've heard the german government say they're not going to be long term in this that they're going to get out pretty quickly or soon as they can is after everything stabilized but i think there's a serious question here about the issue of picking winners and losers i mean when when government steps in and puts in a huge bailout package for an airline and obviously it's a huge industry but they are putting in. this infusion for one airline and then you're saying we're going to take part ownership of the company that doesn't apply

to every business that suffer and it doesn't even apply to every industry that's suffering so when you take this kind of extraordinary step i think other industries look at it and say well why did they get this kind of a deal and we don't and now ben we just talked about obviously them being on the brink of bankruptcy losing $1300000000.00 in that 1st quarter of 2020 so so how bad have finances beyond that been for the company and what does this bailout mean in terms of government intervention yeah just to give you some numbers here in terms of what's happening here so the company lost about $1300000000.00 as i think you mention in the 1st quarter of this year 1300000000 dollars is what they had lost but they were at a burn rate of going through about $1100000.00 every hour that's how much they were losing at the point of this intervention has come so you mentioned at the beginning that that the single largest shareholder for the company heinz or herman

theo essential had not wanted to do that he was holding off to do this that essentially did not want the government intervention nor did he want government to take those board seats and get control partial control of the company but at the burn rate that was essentially losing money they found themselves in a position where there was really no choice here but when you're losing $1100000.00 in cash every hour you're not going to last very long so i think when you really put it into those kind of projections and then you look at the fact that corona virus has reemerged in a number of places it may mean that the airline industry has an even further protracted slowdown and an even longer delay before it's able to come back and that's ultimately a death sentence for an airline like with onza and you know when we're talking about this even with the bailout the airline is actually looking at because of the crowed the prolonged nature of this coronavirus situation we're still looking at significant losses in jobs and cuts totally correct. yeah that's right there's

about 130-002-1800 extension 00 employees who work for this company and they're looking at laying off at least 20000 people at even with the bailout that may still happen at this point so remember you know as government intervention comes with this it does not come with guarantees it does not guarantee that people won't lose their jobs it does not guarantee that the airline won't still become insolvent at some point now you would think when you're you know infusing almost $11000000000.00 into a company you're giving it some for lack of a better term runway to be able to get through but i think it's also important to remember that this money is also set up so that dividends are not paid to shareholders and executives are not able to take bonuses on any of this money goes to investigative journalist ben swan thank you so much. you've got to. us equities have been mostly stable throughout the day surging in the final hour of trading to stay green now most of the forward momentum is coming from big banks which have seen share prices pop thursday after u.s.

banking regulators signaled a move to loosen restrictions created following the last economic crisis now officials from the federal deposit insurance commission said on a call that they will ease some restrictions regarding the volcker rule now the rule was established in 2010 and essentially stopped banks from acting as hedge funds and making risky moves with their investments share prices for wells fargo bank of america morgan stanley goldman sachs and j.p. morgan chase all of which are traded on the new york stock exchange saw spikes of at least 2 percent on this news for more on this date us markets and the economy let's go ahead and bring in boom bust co-host christy i want to start with the volcker rule what does this entailed what does it mean to ease these restrictions. like when you said earlier right now the volcker rule that was established it was established in order to discourage banks from apparently taking too much risk and bar them from using their own funds to make certain types of investments and speculative trading activities in order to increase profits but now we're looking

at which was an idea that was floated earlier this year this would allow banks to invest more of their own capital into small businesses and start ups alongside with clients so this will loosen up restrictions to allow banks to make a large investment in the venture capital and summer of funds while boyden have been set aside a bunch of cash for derivatives trades and would potentially free of billions and cap over the industry thereby enhancing liquidity which is something we all need given the economic slowdown so shares of all the major u.s. banks were trading up more than 2 percent thursday after being beaten down with a chronic virus which resulted in surging big falls on loans and last quarter the f.b.i. scene is now set to vote on the what changes that would free up an estimate about 40000000000 dollars for the entire industry as its capital would then be used to help bolster. well there are parts of the business that are being squeezed by co that you know chrystia i want to stick with banks here for a 2nd that we're seeing some consolidation in the industry as national commercial bank which is so the arabia's largest leader by assets is trying to acquire rival

some a financial group what's going on there. well all the banks around the world are being being up by the screen isn't doing faults and right now as you rightly point out the star of consolidation is happening as all the banks have been weakened by the facts of coronavirus and the economic slump so this is a $15600000000.00 to cover and this is likely to be the biggest banking takeover of this year so saudi arabia has been taking steps in order to shore up its banking sector and in the double whammy it's taking from both the slowdown in growth and also lower oil prices so the saudi arabian monetary authority has already unbelted almost $27000000000.00 in stimulus packages in recent months in order to help but it seems like war is necessary in order to prop up their very well dependent economy especially as a farmer he has failed to materialize and now christiane we have about 30 seconds left but we have so jobless claims reach to an additional 1480000 americans filing for unemployment last week what do we need to know and what does this mean for the

average american at this point. well back in early march and april there the americans were apparently near sure that these were and they were a temporary measure and so any job lost it would look a lot worse on paper than it actually was but the problem is right now that bounce that we're pretty much pricing in that's not happening and by now topping 30 percent of americans didn't make their housing payments for june and missed payments our rates are the highest for rent terms and that has traditionally been a very strong indicator in the coming months because once it's fallen to debt it's a very quick down towards from here so that means job wise it's going to get uglier and there's increased concern for addiction notices in the near months boom bust co-host christy i will follow up more on this in just a little bit thank you so much for your time. and you. take a look at the global trends and spread of the crowbars with our chief correspondent side so our world we worldwide so iran right now there's more than 9500000

cases quoted 19 worldwide and cases in latin america have also tripled in the past month surpassing 2000000 and 1200000 which are in brazil and almost 300000 of that and chile and the number of new cases in europe has also increased last week for the 1st time in months while india is almost surpassing the u.s. with new cases and getting to the u.s. i want to point out something that the u.s. center for disease control and prevention said today so the c.d.c. has been looking at and our body tests done across the country to see how many people had passed infections that were not diagnosed at the time and now are reporting that the u.s. has probably only counted about 10 percent of the people infected so with more than $2400000.00 officially diagnosed that would mean that another $24000000.00 americans have been infected also means that 90 percent or more of americans. have

not been infected and are fully susceptible to the virus so right now here in the u.s. . 30 states are reporting an increase in cases out all of those 13 states of 13 are reporting a 50 percent or greater increase and new cases are also trending down in 11 states while 9 are seeing steady numbers now specifically 4 states have said new records and these are california. arizona texas and florida and brant these 4 states account for almost 30 percent of all the of 330000000 people living in the u.s. so you can see how this would be so it would be worth some for some but 1st i want to take a look at california which was actually the 1st state to implement a lockdown and now has more than 200000 cases and although the percentage up here of their positive rate seems

a lower than other states at 7.4 percent it's important to know that just a couple weeks ago they were at 3 percent and right now they're also reporting anywhere from 5 to 7000 new infections per day for more young people are testing more positive and then in turn spreading the virus to the more vulnerable population which does required require hospitalization which is why hospitalization hospitalizations are also up 30 percent and because of all this surge in cases california is this is their land has also now delayed reopening which was set to open later in july now moving over to arizona which is also seeing their high as number of new cases plus its highest number of hospitalizations now their positive rate is 23 percent which has prompted their governor to announce that the state would actually now report as anywhere you opening plans for the next 3 weeks that actually for the 1st time require people to wear a mask now testing has also become extremely challenging in arizona as their start

. would a real strain on the us test testing system and move over to texas now they have a 16.8 percent positive rate and if their current case numbers if they continue their numbers are soon going to rival dollars in brazil and the texas governor also announced today that he's going to pause any further phases to reopen the state plus suspend all elective surgeries and hospitals in 4 counties after houston and intensive care unit started running out of available beds for coated patients and lastly i want to talk about florida which has reported over 5000 new cases for the 2nd day in a row while now florida is also one of the states that does not to have a statewide requirement that mask be worn but with a 20 percent positive rate under testing many are urging the governor to reconsider

so all in all simply put brand the us right now is not heading in the right direction argy correspondent side tavenner thank you for keeping us up to date. and time now for a quick break but here because on the other side apple is looking to switch to soap sustainability as a player until chips in favor of it so we dig into the details of the move and the biggest move the company is planning as we go to break here the number to put. the so.

join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to get a little bit politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then. you can be both with the yeah you like. the one almost show seemed wrong all right old quotes just don't hold. me to long to get to shape out this day comes to educate and indeed should be

close to trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart when you choose to look for common ground. become a battleground in the us. people of the shutdown of a local plant. is right now my focus because it's a very dangerous. power plant that was attempting to run the reactive beyond its operational limits this just sort of puts a magnifying glass where's the power in this country where's it going is it moving more towards corporate interests who are. more in the idea of a traditional just. how are lie with the people this case demonstrates that struggle very real ways. of struggle.

and welcome back earlier this week apple held its annual worldwide developers conference where the tech giant gently announces its latest innovations and the future of its technology d.c. 2020 was the 1st of its kind as it was held virtually as the pandemic continues to limit crowd sizes as was expected the company announced the latest updates and features 2 operating systems throughout its line of products including the i phone i pad an apple watch as well as new features for the company's wireless air pods but the biggest headline out of the conference was apple's plans to cut ties with processor giant intel in its mac line of computers apple says it will start using the same chick uses in mobile devices to bribe processing power for the next generation of facts on the news apple stock has been up this week while intel

actually lost more than 2 percent on thursday alone so let's take a look at this. from apple with carolina milena see the founder and principal analyst with heart of tech carolina thank you so much for joining us today 1st question i have years. how big of a risk is this for apple to step away for one of the leaders in the processing sector. this is in a long time coming as you pointed out and is awkward taking their future in their own hands up with the expertise that they've built over the past 10 years we need to remember to bear chips. into the i phone use in 2 d. up to watch. and so you know they have a team of people and they've built a lot of expertise in how it's to be able to make this a success and now in an interview with p.c. gamer publication a former engineer at intel actually said the decision has to be about all of the

bugs in the company's sky like processor infrastructure now is this actually going to be a concern moving forward for intel as you know they sell chips to pretty much everybody . no i don't think that's the case 1st of all i really think that for thinking about risk for a long time and use it now making sure. the link between basilica and the o. s. the operating system and the hardware is becoming more and more important and he's part of how you deliver and use the rest areas to your users that is unique to you and so being in control of that it's become more important over time and you seen others like mike just of steps in customizing chips. that the steam market is not being the key now for meters now and you know the dissenters is where they are cooler or revenue is coming from and where maybe you look at

a continuum. and now when we talk about w.-w. do you see that happened earlier this week what announcements at the show caught your eye. there was a lot i think if i look at trends rather than individual announcements for me there are a couple of things that are really indicative of where our all is knowing one senior really focusing trying to make it easier for i phone users to build the bare loyalty to the outward ecosystem with our products and so the act not just the with the shift to but from the trauma user experience perspective and what we're trying to do with us and the ability to have i.o.u.'s so i strongly run it it really on a mac is really trying to build the. ability for consumers to move up and so now you know for many years we always about awkward this tool from it can see you

running windows 2 and not running macro s. and now are pretty strong shift that discourse if you like to not moving from a p.c. to a man from an i phone to a match and i think that's new just far as the opportunity that we're bringing to our new machine sure fascinating stuff of course i phone users who are waiting for the next model probably have to wait till september for the care of the latest announcement carolina mellon se it will have you back soon founder and principal analyst at the heart of tech thank you so much for lending your insight. thank you . sticking with the tech theme here microsoft announced monday it would be shutting down its live streaming platform mixer and attempting to move viewers and broadcasters to facebook gaming now microsoft has been struggling to gain market share in the streaming space over the last 3 plus years against competitors like amazon's twitch t.v. in google's you tube gaming now mixer will officially start redirecting viewers to facebook gaming starting on the 22nd of july but we want to talk about this so for

more on this and some other news of the video game industry let's go ahead and bring in entrepreneur and video game analyst used to enjoin and who is also the author of one up creativity competition and the global business of video games thank you so much for joining us today now i want to start with this mixer story we know microsoft pumped a ton of money into the platform integrating it into x.-box obviously there's promotion but they really also spent a lot of money getting the exclusivity deals with streamers some of them who are at the top of their game like ninja enshroud who received as much as 30000000 and 10000000 respectively to move over when they were tapped in from twitch dot t.v. so was the mixer experiment just a huge failure for microsoft. it's a good observation i think you make a lot of sense when you compare them to the other microsoft. why do you think they also experience mobile they were too late to the game and they spend that much

money but doesn't really get to market should they need to be clear what's different this time around is that richard fisher and historically microsoft as we've hard time kind of you know giving up this habit of chasing a bet that's exactly what they did and then i think rightfully. rather than spending in a couple more 100000000 something that's not going to go anywhere nearly amazon runs the show and clearly you tube and google studio you know are on their own ground and they have. the market share jobs so there's no real place for microsoft and then you know as always in the same sentence you either win or you die and you have to wonder how much this may be had to do with obviously this holiday season we're going to see the next generation of video game console as x.-box who has their series x. are on deck here and in reality when you're starting to build that infrastructure when you start to put the software in there and get everything put together well

it's hard to build things around a streaming platform that you just don't think you're going to hold onto so i wonder if that has to do with it as well i mean why is it just that they were too late to the game is that why you think that they just weren't able to make any market share because we've seen especially amid the pandemic year over year in april of this year you tube and twitter dot tv both doubled their streaming capacity in that time frame and mixer didn't move at all. that's one that's on so many ways. lives and the people watching other people play the games on the net that's been off in a tremendous amount of numbers and so you see this of course the same quarter in any poll the same month of april last year i want to mention due to doubling our just a number of hours and you know microsoft has been unable to kind of emulate or replicate that level of success so what they did well by what was a hopeful attempt was to figure out can we purchase something exclusive like ninja

and have them come over to the platform and attracted to the crowd with the i think the missed underestimation or has it the mistake that was made in the strategy is to say that people really follow titles and at the celebrity of certain streamers or he's critical to some degree when you're in the fans of the game they want to see the game and they want to hang out with their friends and they want to you know talk to their all their loyal customers in the context so it's all that's reason to see the community play more of a celebrity play at this stage and i think microsoft just kind of missed it on there but the number as you point out correctly they've been ups significant i don't want to touch on something quickly before we head out here a video game juggernaut for tonight has been holding in game concerts recently and they are also holding a movie night on friday of this week i got about 10 seconds for you here but how big is this using video games as a promotional tool. 10 seconds or less this is the future in many ways younger audiences are going to be watching online on their phones are going to be doing this to get their friends and so music video and there are segments that are opting

out of time reaching that audience are going to lie and gaming to get access to it on its own it's hard to say it's a print or in video game and if you spend your own it sorry to cut you short thank you so much for joining us today. thank you. for this type as a portable t.v. see you next time. he said he had to so he forgot to can he just knew the no he meant for us who want to. make that on the better side going to the book on useless all that business and just. consider. me emotional learning to want to screw up your story a stock or your muscles from the course for your knee which resists him but i'm
