past it was reported that when the incident occurred the propeller of the ship nor the home were operating. as well as the dust storm or wind speed reasons we had technical problems with the ship and possible personal reasons regarding the captain of this yet i can't specify these the will the investigation concludes was tuesday 12 northbound ships reportedly pass through the canal ahead of the ever given another 30 were able to travel in the opposite direction before the jam last year 18840 ships were able to pass through the canal with no issues well the canal is the quickest passage from asia and the middle east to europe and the us is may change the way and what goods our ships reporting for boom bust in hospice weeks. while prices fell early in the day they have since stabilized ahead of this week's opec plus made it so for more on this and what's moving markets monday to bring in boom bust co-host christiane and showtime and editor of the logical investor thank
5:35 am
you both for being here sean i want to start with you i how has the global oil market react to the situation going on in the suez canal and what are we looking at as far as expectations going into this next big opec plus meeting. you know before the whole incident oil had really run up a lot i mean it almost doubled in 4 or 5 months and so it was in the midst of a pullback when the suez incident happened in so well a drop like 2 or 11 bucks a barrel and the suez is it didn't help it stabilize and regain 3 or 4 bucks a barrel and so really stopped volatile you know downdraft that was happening in oil. oh pick up believe is going to want to be you know really restrained as it comes to production i think that they're going to want to keep oil prices high remember they've got budgets they're really need about a break even of about $83.00 a barrel for saudi arabia some need a little less or a little more than that in other opec members but they want to see you know $8900.00 barrel oil and i believe that they ultimately get that that will take a little bit of time to play out but i think in this next leg higher i think that's
5:36 am
what we'll see over the next you know year or 2 now kristie traders are bracing for a high in volatility during this holiday shortened week with quarter and rebalancing amongst phones how are equities doing after the media selloff that we saw friday. well there's a lot of weakness on the bank stocks monday as they got caught in the downdraft a friday morning so shares a common discovery saw intense selling pressure last week as the 2 companies were hit by force liquidations up positions held by multibillion dollar family office our capital management so the 2 companies had over 27 percent during friday's sell off an unprecedented $35000000000.00 block trades so after the initial plunge in medias earlier in the week it prompted this margin call from one of our shakos i'm brokers which of them prompted cascade of similar cash other crimes as well so now capital ran by tiger. is completely finished as the firm's wide site is no longer available credit suisse warned that it would also chase
5:37 am
a significant hit to its 1st quarter results having to exit hedge funds position related to this for selling and them are also one that could get hit so bank stocks are way down the market today as investors are kind of assessing the fall and the. analysts are hopeful that the situation will not have a lot of impact on the broader market however traders are left wondering is this fire sale really over and are there any other firms that are on the verge of blowing up like this so as you mentioned we are at the traditional end of the quarter time or volatility tends to spike up with their portfolios so there's also the possibility that other funds could have similar exposure to actually goes and we could see marty's hopefully isolated case it's going. to kristi's point here when there's so much a volatile and in the market we would expect to see some risk of trading on monday but but actually we saw the opposite is gold and silver actually dipped quite a bit what happened there. yes so actually you know metals really kind of weird
5:38 am
they'll pop up for a good while and then they'll consolidate in and pare back usually for many months or so and we're still in the latter phase of that before it's next. so also to sometimes we think you know when markets pull back gold should automatically go up but sometimes gold will temporarily go down with markets especially when there's margin call selling in different things like that but ultimately it bounces back and recovers much faster than stock so gold can snap back and regain 6 year 80 percent of loss what might take stocks you know many years to do so in that sense it is a good heads and now kristie when we talk about gold we always like to talk about digital gold and the expectations for big point are high going into april as this month has been traditionally bullish for crypto what's the next catalyst for big corn right now. well right now i have a bit of a wait and see attitude among crypto traders me are just out of reach of all time highs and we're doing well just consolidating at this $50000.00 bam so in terms i
5:39 am
think patience i do think i'm going higher where in the aftermath of the having so after having you normally had the best i gain in the next year so 2021 will be no different than 2013 or 2017 and we are literally only 3 and a half months into the current that quantum bull cycle so there's still quite a long ways to go you have more institutional flow coming in typically that will serve as the near term catalyst of major credit card provider visa piloting a program that will allow partners to use the lock chain to settle transactions made a speech and claim it will be going public in april in a direct listing on the nasdaq giving the entire industry more legitimacy and then on top of that on top of institutional we have another inflow of retail customers getting into cook as it becomes more mainstream and even though i feel like i'm the is already pretty mainstream we're talking about the boomers the very wealthy baby boomers who have not been involved in this rally up until now so as banks like morgan stanley begin to offer access to bitcoin funds to its wealthy clients other
5:40 am
major banks and training will follow suit and this will likely spark a new rush from wealthy baby boomers so morgan stanley is the 1st big u.s. bank to offer bitcoin and not the just wealth manager clients so j.m.p. securities predicted that about $1.00 trillion dollars could flow into bequest from this demographic as they currently do not have any direct access or exposures other banks like goldman sachs they're also seeing huge institutional demand as increasingly wealthy clients are getting worried about the us and things way too many dollars but coast christiane showed harman editor of the logical investor thank you both for that and today. thank you again. and johnson and johnson has entered an agreement to supply the african union with up to 400000000 doses of its covert 19 vaccine the pharma giant announced monday
5:41 am

5:42 am
a plateau unfortunately causing $1000.00 cases the united states are rising again right now cases are up safety 9 percent which has prompted c.d.c. director dr rachelle when lenski warning of a potential 4th wave of the virus. when i 1st started at c.d.c. about 2 months ago i made a promise to you i would tell you the truth even if it was not the news you wanted to hear now is one of those times when i have to share the truth and i have to hold and trust will listen i'm going to montana or i'm going to lose the specs and i'm going to reflect on the recurring feeling i have of the pending we have so much to look forward to so much promise and potential of where we are and so much a reason for hope all right now i'm scared. cases are now especially increasing amongst younger people and many are pointing to florida state further along in lifting the restrictions and welcoming taurus as
5:43 am
a case example of what not to do you know take a look at some of the footage coming from miami where thousands of tourists have gathered drawn by florida's a loose virus control laws and if recent trends are any indication the rest of the country may really be in trouble but of course as case increases not just florida here or some other several states where cases are once again going up for example in michigan and they're averaging about 4100 cases a day up from a 1000 just one month ago in february now unfortunately hospitalizations are also rising sharply with the u.s. a likely to surpass 565000 deaths in the coming days but of course looking at the vaccine rollout that's looking good where the u.s. there ministering about 25w2x5 people are should say are receiving a baxi in every day and that's a figure that's been pretty pretty steady as you can see for more than
5:44 am
a week now so right now in total more than 15 percent of the total u.s. population has been fully vaccinated while most states expect to open up vaccine eligibility to all adults by the end of april so far 7 states have already done that brant there's a new report going around about the origin of the virus what do you tell us about that a well this is a draft leaked report which was conducted by a joint effort by w.h.o. world health organization in china on the origins of cold in 1000 now this report is based a largely on a visit by. team of scientists to han of course the chinese city work over 19 was 1st detected now of this report concluded. the transmission of the virus from bats to humans through another animal is the most likely scenario and more importantly
5:45 am
that it's extremely unlikely that given $1000.00 leaked from a one on lab now this report was also in conclusive on whether the outbreak started out of one seafood market that one of the earliest clusters of case back in december of 2019 but of course this study was never meant to actually identify the exact a natural source of the virus things that could take years and to give you an example it's been 40 years of study that still failed to pinpoint the exact species about that for us transmitted to humans so this is where we are now our correspondents are having to thank so much for keeping us up to date. and instagram has been labeled as the most invasive social media app when it comes to sharing your personal data with 3rd parties now this according to newly released information artie's jon how do you know it's more. it's no surprise that instagram like twitter

5:53 am
london based financial firms to actually go back to business as usual with the e.u. correct we are totally correct i don't think i'll ever be business as it was before meaning the previous usual a few things on vova that is a financial services consultancy firm back in january only 2 months ago released a report that stated that over a 1000 banks insurers and asset managers were opening offices in london so they could better some of their european customers so i think you'll seeing that a lot of these e.u. investors and e.u. firms are also moving to the city of london and they're doing so regardless of the m o u being signed or not as usual they are eating as usual as a business is carrying on as usual. on the. situation the new survey from the federation of small businesses shows that 23 percent of exporters in the u.k. have actually stopped sales to the e.u. following brecht's it due to red tape that they're incurring is this going to be
5:54 am
a lasting problem or just some growing pains of brecht's it well i think brant what you're going to see is that growing pains are big for small companies growing pains on as big the big companies the global firms that have been far better positioned in terms of obviously all the stuff that they have to deal with all the additional red tape i think what you will see is you know to refer to the n.p.a. in the u.k. richard holden who's actually been hailing let's try and her international trade department for now the 9 trillion pound access to the pacific rim the pacific trade agreement and so global corporations are going to benefit for that so in terms of business the usual small businesses i think are going to continue to fuel this longer than the logical peroration. in the u.k. prime minister boris johnson. he said saturday that the country would continue with his plan to reopen after the most recent lockdown saying the economy will quote bounce back strongly later this year what's it going to take for
5:55 am
a strong recovery in the u.k. at this point well yes you're right he did speak and he also said that he's going to go and get a hack and he's going to go and have a pint in the pub you can hillary keeps telling us that he's going to get there. and you need to just have jelled put it back but anyway that's it but to be serious about this i think something that has been very much reported in the u.k. and that's of a direct full out of code that is the skills gap i think like everywhere else in the world obviously the more highly educated the family the more highly educated the demographic the easier it's been for them to stay not only abreast of education and learning but the skills gap has widened across the globe but particularly also in the u.k. you're saying that the number of options for the a levels which is an advanced level of degree has decreased and there's a skills gap concern in the u.k. i don't think this is unique to the u.k. but it certainly is going to mean that the u.k. has to work on that to get back to business as usual the other thing that will get
5:56 am
the u.k. back to business as usual on the finalization of global trade agreements including the one that is still impending that is with the u.s. and also of course the one i just mentioned with lynn stross in the pacific but she's finalized over 60 agreements faso its trade agreements it and it skills based or of course keep up with everything going on these trade agreements the state of bracks and of course the recovery hillary ford which of the british american business association stroh mark business development consultants thank you so much for joining us today dr brown. and finally it's no surprise that the live event industry has really felt the toll of the coven 19 pandemic concerts sporting events and convention were all forced to change plans at gatherings of thousands of people just weren't in the cards anymore one of the biggest fan conventions over the last decade has been san diego comic-con which was forced to care. it's summer time event in 2020 and its future event in 2021 but in an effort to bring in much needed revenue the organizers of the event planned to hold comic-con special edition on
