always the issue of trying to playing out in the american election cycle. and by the trade themselves as being tough and maybe they are at least rhetorically but reality tells a very different story and these artists the commanding heights of industry and finance for to china for game one of the major issue is this china. this is boom bust the one business show you can't afford to miss friendship or in washington coming jobless claims in the united states are up for the 1st time in months as the copen 1000 pandemic continues to surge in some parts of the country straight ahead we break down the numbers and how markets are faring amid the spike

and which is just in cases several nations have barred u.s. travelers from entering their borders will dig into the details plus an airline and aviation stocks have taken a beating in the wake of the crowbar and boeing is inching closer to the comeback of at $737.00 max we have expert analysis on hand to discuss with a packed show today so let's dive right in. and we lead the program with some disheartening economic news out of the united states new weekly unemployment claims rose for the 1st time in nearly 4 months for the week ending july 18th 1400000 americans filed for benefits according to the u.s. labor department as states continue to roll back efforts to reopen amid spikes and coping 1000 cases new claims had been declining weekly since the peak of 6900000 jobs lost at the beginning of stay at home orders in late march now meanwhile as the crow virus relief package in the united states is set to expire at the end of july senate republicans announced. and today they had reached an agreement with the
10:32 pm
white house on what should be included in that next round of funding u.s. treasury secretary steven minucci and comment on the next package thursday saying that the new plan will extend enhanced unemployment insurance based on a roughly 70 percent wage replacement also announced several other provisions in the plan including a nother round of p.p.p. funding with 2nd checks for companies whose revenues have fallen by 50 percent tax credits to encourage businesses to hire workers $16000000000.00 in new funding for covert $900.00 testing $105000000000.00 to support schools in reopening and a nother round of direct payments to individuals now there were no additional details provided on that last provision of course this will all face heated debate in congress before moving forward and for more on this next round of stimulus measures and how markets have reacted thursday let's bring in todd horowitz chief strategist at bubba trading but always a pleasure to see here i want to start with these unemployment numbers this was the
10:33 pm
18th straight week in which it totaled more than 1000000 jobs lost how is this going to affect the decision regarding unemployment benefits there has been this proposal to reduce the $600.00 a week to what could be as much as or as little as $100.00 a week is it too soon to really start tightening these stimulus measures. good afternoon everybody i think they should stop i mean that's my opinion look you want to do something give a tax holiday so you don't have to pay payroll taxes that would be a better bonus because that would actually force many that are sitting home doing nothing but they're making more by sitting home doing nothing i'm not a big fan of all this debt they're creating because at the end of the day it doesn't go anywhere tell people go back to work who can if you can't go to work i understand we can make arrangers but if your review have a job and you go back to work then you should be back at work and give a tax holiday to give them that incentive to go back to the. versus saying well as
10:34 pm
i make it more sit at home why should i go to work and it's interesting that you mention that payroll tax holiday because actually the trumpet mr. mentioned specifically that that was not included in the package as of right now so why aren't they moving that that way because i assume many in that ministration agree with you on many of these provisions. because the house will not approve it because again they'd hate to give trouble after 3 and a half years of beating the crap out of them they hate to give them a victory right before the election i mean this whole colbert masses all these jobs lost everything is more political than it is actually the buyers yes i understand that i was very serious but if you look at some of the stats from around the globe if you would just let the things alone we wouldn't be in a better shape right now and we wouldn't have as many of these issues but of course you know that palosi and gang are not going to give these guys a break and they're not going to have a win so the only way they can get something through to try to help the american people is to give them more free money but again i'm not
10:35 pm
a fan and now but i want to kind of move to markets here we're seeing a nasty dip thursday after several consecutive weeks where the markets have just been kind of bubbling up and are we seeing a flight to safety is the market churning risk off or is this just a temporary knee jerk reaction on the unemployment numbers and it will continue marching higher once a new stimulus package passes. well brad looks like the markets appear to still want to go higher you know again you're going to get some pullback from them as they can then make no i have to have a new high so eventually you do get some sellers and we don't go in a straight line however the other thing i will say too is i have do believe with this is a big bubble and at some point is going to burst now some of the indications are that it may be close now i certainly wouldn't have been a get out to temper a bubble but the way you see certain things is like the overall speed in action and the overall nasdaq the very big swings up and down even intraday so to me. you
10:36 pm
might be seeing a potential rebirth there we know at one point this market's going to crack again and i still believe that sometime this year we're probably going to hit the lows that we made in march however i'm not predicting it today and personally i'm actually still on but at the end but when you look at markets this is typical type of action and any possible direction change and that's 300 points to me is nothing i mean we are talking about a $27.00 borne index i mean $300.00 points is hardly worth thinking about and that was what i was going to bring up i mean i know you say you're not sure when we might see this but that volatility is going to come back so in your opinion we are going to see at some point probably those 2000 point swings we did see in march which triggered shutoffs in the markets overall so we may see that again but. i couldn't agree more that you're going to see those things happen and i guess obviously we can't time it to what is going to happen they don't send me a telegram and say we're going to do it now but you can watch the action and be
10:37 pm
prepared for it and i invest the more important thing we're going to get some nasty days again no matter what happens no matter where we going the market and get some nasty selves or but then one thing you want to remember if you're an investor is that the history of the markets if you're playing solid companies it's been a half percent year over year not every year but again that's what you're looking very few investor but again as a traitor i'm looking for the spot that it will give me the opportunity to crack and sell it and know it was a big earnings week here for u.s. companies what were your takeaway from this earnings week. this in the earnings the biggest bunch of b.s. that there is ok look they're already under delivered they they under promise so far how could they not beat him i mean you know you can't step over you know a one inch bar is very difficult they already built this and this is one of the things that you have to understand in markets and how they function is that markets are pretty pricey in a lot of things so you get these beats and what they do they draw any. the retail
10:38 pm
guys that have no idea what's going on and they start firing their money chasing them are because they don't want to massage which is usually would all eventually cause the collapse for this is all be of earnings are all b.s. because it's all under promise over deliver in our stock to rise so to me it's a bunch of crap well and it's interesting that you say that because especially right now in this cycle after you've had 3 months of being shut down you know we have airlines reporting and they're saying well they beat expectations well there's not really a big deal there when we thought you were to lose 100000000000 but you only lost $89000000000.00 it's really not that big of a win there for you i want to hit this before we leave here as confidence in the central bank continues to sink i know you're a big supporter of the fed more and more investors are piling into gold and other safety assets but in the event of a real downturn is gold really that safe i mean it does seem to hit record highs every time we have these situations going on gold is not a safe haven play for equities gold is a safe haven by possibly going to currency against the dollar and of course i can
10:39 pm
say to you and i believe that there is going to be a big announcement coming out and he time soon now from either the central banking system or the federal reserve that is something because you can see the way there's a gold and silver and platinum are traina they're all basically on their way to pluto now and that is usually a sign that they know some news is on its way out and i think we'll probably hear something in the next couple of days that will support this rally i think gold gets all time highs but again i don't ever believe any market will go straight up or straight down so at some point we will get a pullback and i have an opportunity but it is not a hedge against an equity portfolio ever horowitz chief strategist at bubba trading thank you for breaking it all down for the different. and as the united states has hit another milestone eclipsing 4000000 total cases of covert 19 the pandemic has claimed the lives of more than 144000 people within the nation so with that in my let's go ahead and take another global look at the spread of the virus with.
10:40 pm
correspondent science editor so i we're we worldwide so brand this is where we are right now us cases there is now as you said more than 4000000 cases u.s. deaths it's already surpassed 146000 now global cases there are more than 15500000 global deaths over 66 over 633000 deaths now from all the global cases roughly 4.2 of those people have died so right now that's of the 3 deaths going on with the global cases and now almost $10000000.00 cases are 2 thirds of all cases globally are from 10 countries and almost half of those cases are reported so far from 3 countries now then there is 5 countries u.s. brazil india russia and south africa that have the highest cases of new that are the highest numbers of new cases currently while south africa also across the stress hold of 400000 confirmed cases just today now here in the u.s.
10:41 pm
cases are trending upward in 39 states while 5 states have just reported their highest daily death toll now texas they just reported 220 deaths bring in the state's total to over $4500.00 florida on the other hand has reported $173.00 deaths today bringing the state's total to over $5500.00 and at least 157 coal that $1000.00 related those have been reported in california last 24 hours while alabama and i had a whole also a set their highest death a record on record for both states so once again brian it just seems the u.s. is just had it into the wrong direction. given the spike here in the united states there has been some travel restrictions for u.s. citizens tell us about that so when you know global borders being shut down isn't something new for most of the world you know to try traveling with i don't know an iranian passport but a. prior to cope at 19 an american passport gave you visa free access to 95 percent
10:42 pm
of the world while others had to spend thousands just for the privilege of being rejected anyways now cohabit 19 has suddenly made everything very different americans have gone from having access to most of the world to being banned from most of it so right now as an american know all the places you can go so right now open to u.s. citizens with no restrictions there is european countries like. north macedonia and serbia and all those red they are you seeing right here these are all the places that are close to us citizens now again places that are open to u.s. citizens with no restrictions in western asia you have there is turkey in north africa there's tunisia then islands like demeanor republic and maldives are open to u.s. citizens lastly there is mexico but only at and close resorts now the most you can do the most you do in these countries that are open to u.s. citizen is some sort of temperature check at the airport then there are this
10:43 pm
nations that are also welcoming americans but with restrictions now here just a few examples of those restrictions for example you can still go to come but if you can dish out a $3000.00 covert 19 deposit and kyra listen on realistic this is a lot of young americans tend to travel to asia and countries on a budget then there is a united arab emirates that's open up only to buy to americans all of the parts of the emirates are still closed so if your flight is to operate dobby will expect to be sent back and then countries that are requiring a 14 day quarantine ecuador and a u.k. which again is unrealistic because a lot of americans get a maximum of 2 weeks per year so spending that in the quarantine again is just not realistic then there is jamaica which requires that travelers coming from states like new york florida arizona and texas have 2 negative test results within 10 days and then there are. countries like that only welcoming americans coming on
10:44 pm
a private jet so once one of the world's most powerful travel documents right now the only stamp that makes an american passport usable is one that says vaccine on a brant r t correspondent sorry terms of thank you for keeping us up to date on that. time now for a quick break but hang here because when we return we're going to take a look at the turbulence facing airlines in the aviation manufacturers amid the copen 1000 pandemic and the latest moves in the boeing's infamous 737 max saga and as we go to break here are the numbers of the closest.
10:45 pm
japan and america. the top 3 economies of the world yes so now they are like that to tonic plates are moving away so that would be seismically significant. doesn't sound like a friendly cooperative globalized world and. i 1st heard about you know. from the helicopter. in iraq. i think that there are people going to i mean it's military who have never forgiven . this guy traitor through. the book. you believe.
10:46 pm
he was released. independent journalist. you've. seen a lot of problems. on. the idea of developing an anonymous tip to try and find him to leave you. that was a friend's. point i didn't control him just right that he would be in for a short while. in the room when one of the world's most. unusual remains very serious anderson anderson every founder to the song to the song knowing. that there was a great deal of jealousy in the running springs for the song you're going to know why 1000 people more michael they have hugh seen all. the saints who. says my. goodness. we have to
10:47 pm
be on our side in solitary confinement in the prison for terrorists await you know how it's a live person. i don't see him dying you know. i don't. know what he's going. welcome back after what has been a dismal year for airline companies u.s. aerospace giant boeing is inching closer to getting its 737 max jets recertified by the f.a.a. in fact the federal aviation administration has announced that is providing a 45 day public comment period before any recertify cation can take place so this
10:48 pm
is another hurdle for boeing or does it signal that the company may soon get the green light to begin selling at $737.00 max once again and where does the airline industry stand as a new round of lockdowns is continuing what was already a very very tough situation joining us now to discuss his boom bust co-host and investigative journalist ben swan and dennis pager communications committee chairman at the allied pilots association thank you both for joining us today but i want to actually start with you let's begin with the latest on boeing is this good or bad news. well i think it kind of depends on how you look at it look at anything anything the market perceives as bad news is going to be bad news for boeing in terms of stock price because they've had such a tough not just year because of this pandemic but really going back to march of 21000 when the 737 max jets were all grounded so it's been tough for boeing having said that look at it shows that boeing is moving forward that's good news in terms
10:49 pm
of the read of certification of the 737 max and also the 5 of the f.a.a. is working with them but this is going to be a slow process and it should be a slow process there's no way that the 737 max can be rushed back into production and even if boeing was given the green light today to say you can begin you know getting these just back into service airlines still are flying the way that they were and there are individual customers as airlines that may not want to even deal with buying or purchasing new planes at this point so you know it's a long road ahead for boeing this does inch them closer though now cafeteria what do you make of the situation with boeing i know you've been following this deeply what do we hope to learn from a 45 day open comment period and what do you make of f.a.'s latest decision here. no more than following on a 737 pilot and have been for over a decade so and very closely related to the max right now we've seen and we've seen
10:50 pm
from boeing a giraffe through our company american airlines the training that they propose in it's night and day from where we were but there's still some more to go and we don't like seeing and hearing is if he's talking about this comment period we want to be involved in air before you drop this rock honest to say ok now what have to say so the f.a.a. unfortunately been gone a little bit dark on us and we've got to crack the door back open because our ultimate goal is to have a comedy with very few comments because our concerns have been addressed and most of them revolve not around fixing the you know and yes in the max but on pilot treating and. sure that if you're going to go this far you take care of all the things that challenge those pilots and both of those accidents that go beyond the caps it's critical that we get this right and our entire aviation system is going to be challenged going forward to get that prize which is the confidence of passengers and now dennis i want to kind of move to
10:51 pm
a broader conversation about the airline industry too because i mean while the 737 max is very very important safety is crucial when it comes to air travel and fortunately we're amid a pandemic that has grounded the entire industry to a halt and here are some some numbers for you the southwest airlines said thursday it lost $915000000.00 in the 2nd quarter compared to a $741.00 net income year earlier and warned that travel to man will likely remain depressed until there is a vaccine or treatment for the corona virus now you talk about safety when it comes to flying an aircraft proper training now is it truly going to take a vaccine before airlines and air travel returns to normal. that's a great point american runs a company that i fly for were also be put in losses but you know not to me quickly should not it but everybody focuses on profits and losses this is really about d.n.r. demand and quiddity and right now all of the airlines u.s.
10:52 pm
carriers have enough to quit eating get through this storm assuming it has a normal path to a vaccine american spoke to that and united previously and everyone is expecting about a 50 percent of revenues here in the near term until we get their next enough vaccine it's the holy grail of ok now we've got our hands on in the interim in american soccer is happening with an increase in domestic traffic that hasn't gone off the shelf it is actually plateaued we've got to ensure that our passengers are competent to be on an airplane and it is with the mass the air circular. the cleaning the house i would be on with my family who is trying to run my state it was and it is safe to be on the air right now we just have to give the places that you go to open responsibly i think we all learned a lesson that if you rush to comply and rush to get back to normal this virus is just waiting to bite you and we can't allow
10:53 pm
a rant now and we've learned our lesson and i think for those who are doubting now and absolutely when we're talking about some of this as transmissible as covert 19 it is concerning when you're in a basically an enclosed tube in the sky for 3 to 4 hours with strangers who you don't know so i definitely understand what we're looking at today and what we may be looking at with the pandemic now bet the pain demick has decimated as we were talking about boeing there the aerospace shares boeing stock is off about 45 percent year to date air bus shares are down about 49 percent over that same time period for companies like boeing is the 7 $37.00 max a bigger deal or is it the lack of demand due to the coronavirus. well i think it's both things right it's very tough to say that if the as i said before the 737 max we're recertify today doesn't mean that there would be a demand for it has that it's was talking to demand is a big part of this and how much of a demand is there for air travel right now how much of a demand is there for airlines to get back into that and remember that boeing left
10:54 pm
airlines hanging with this because it wasn't just boeing that could no longer produce a $737.00 max dennis those very well airlines grounded those planes and governments ground of those planes around the world where they were not allowed to be in the air so that becomes a whole issue in and of itself but lastly i'd say this you know going back to the issue of the f.a.a. there comment period it's important that the f.a.a. shows a lot of transparency here because one of the things we learned about boeing and its relationship to the f.a.a. during this 1st route of issues with the 737 were simply the fact that boeing seemed to dismiss and disregard the f.a.a. in a lot of ways almost disrespecting the organization and the f.a.a. did very little to force compliance and they can't find themselves in that position again and that is going to be the final word to get about 30 seconds to respond to what ben just said there. and you know that it's about transparency and not letting what happened it's clearly happened happen again it's going to be an open book that can't be i've got a secret to this until we're done so you're doing what you said you're writing near
10:55 pm
the pulse of this and that's why it's going to be it's because we're talking now we've got c.b. actually captain dennis stager of the allied pilots association and boom bust co-host ben swan thank you both for breaking that down for us today. thank you and finally the month of mars continues as several countries are launching missions to the red planet this summer and china may be ready to take the lead the country announced a successful launch of its efforts thursday if all goes well the mission could be groundbreaking arche correspondent turning to chavez has more on this story. china has successfully launched its most ambitious mars mission yet in a bold attempt to join the united states in successfully landing a spacecraft on the red planet this spacecraft called teen when one was launched on the long march 5 carrier rocket from a resort province off the south coast of mainland china this video capturing the moment of the successful launch of sorting immediate excitement from onlookers like

you can see the launch more into this in a 2nd flight to mars this week after a united arab emirates orbiter blasted off on a rocket from japan on monday this as the u.s. is aiming to launch perseverance its most sophisticated mars rover ever built the mission set to take place next week meantime china's tandem spacecraft equipped with both an orbiter and a rover will take about 7 months to reach mars just like the others and if all goes well and 11 which means the quest for heavenly truth we'll look for underground water if any as well as any evidence of possible ancient life but this isn't china's 1st attempt at the red planet in 2011 a chinese orbiter accompanying a russian mission was lost when the spacecraft failed to get out of earth's orbit or after launching from can. sixten eventually burning up in the atmosphere now this time china will be racing to the red planet alone but unlike other mars missions taking place this month china has tightly controlled any information that

judged as coming close is this until. we can do better we should be doing better. everyone is contributing each of our own way but we also know that this crisis will not go on forever the challenges created with the response has been much so many good people are helping us. it makes us feel very proud that we're in it together. you can't be both with the yeah you like.
10:59 pm
always the issue of china playing out in the american election cycle and by the trade themselves as being tough on beijing maybe they are at least rhetorically but reality tells a very different story and it's bipartisan the commanding heights of industry and finance and poured in china for decades and now their visions to show is this china . is your media a reflection of reality. in a world transformed. what will make you feel safe from. thyssen nation full community. are you going the right way or are you being led so.
