they didn't mention whether they had paid the ransom or not paid the ransom you know in america probably because of hollywood and partly because of our inflated sense of exceptionalism we tend to always think this is what happens when somebody takes us hostage or anyone ever asks us for a ransom but just your sense of. how you feel for what you. are just bad guys always lose right right it appears in this case that's not the case true lacking any other explanation at this point but according to a published report by bloomberg there's every reason to believe that colonial did pay the ransom. is rick sanchez there with his thoughts on the story well the colonial pipeline is one of the america's largest fuel networks pumping nearly half of all petrol used on the east coast following the attack 18 states and the

district of columbia declared a state of emergency panic buying school prices rise to 20 and percent and even up to 40 percent in some states political analyst told us how the latest attack may shape things to come. well the pipeline is a small thing in terms of the economy and the supply line of fuel for the country it's a problem that will and it will go because the ransom was paid who knows what the hackers were after next maybe our electric power grid something bad is coming and this was a trial run for something worse they're testing to see how much damage can be done to the american economy and the next step i believe is going to be a government installation of some sort like book power grid or defense installation the fort somewhere or an airfield for the air force there are things that are going to be attacked with computer attacks now that are that are just not even thought of by the american public banks all kinds of things that require every day computer

use for people's lives are all at risk and i think people have underestimated the risk and they're going to pay a price for having done it from here on out this is only the beginning and my. national will back again. ringback this is the one business show you can't afford to miss branch of war in washington coming up hundreds of millions of dollars were wiped out of the cryptocurrency market after a major announcement from tesla c.e.o. . we'll break down what happened plus the colonial pipeline restarted operations after last week's ransomware attack and now the white house has an executive order

to prevent future cybersecurity mishaps. up after 3 days of the u.s. releases more doubt on inflation what they can do those details but the facts show today so let's dive right in. we lead the program with a major hit to cryptocurrency hundreds of billions of dollars were knocked out of the entire crypto market after tesla c.e.o. elon musk announced the company would suspend vehicle purchases using bitcoin now in the now infamous tweet posted wednesday must said the electric car maker is concerned about rapidly increasing use of fossil fuels for bitcoin mining and transaction especially coal which has the worst emissions of any fuel in the 20 musk added tesla will not be selling any bitcoin as the company looks for other cryptocurrency that use less than one percent of bitcoins energy per transaction these concerns about energy consumption they are nothing new in fact we've talked about it quite

a bit on this show back in february cambridge university even released data showing bequeaths electricity consumption ranked above entire nations including argentina the netherlands and the u.a.e. on the news the price of bitcoin fell as much as 14 per cent while tesla stopped dropped as much as 4 and a half percent so let's dig into this with the host and she's a crypto analyst as well kristie i chrissy this is such a wild story what do you make of the situation in this movement that we saw in crypto and tesla stock following that tweet. well 1st of all this news is just overblown and frankly it really doesn't make any sense tesla just for its treasury back in january and he specifically said that they will not be selling any so this i believe is just more showmanship from a lot that could be construed as market manipulation in order to further his own games he's obviously not selling that coin and by treating those in a widespread market he caused the price to drop giving himself and his friends

another opportunity to write and the fact that he is not selling shows actually is still in fact on the side of decline no matter what his words say actions speak louder and right now he is still a hardliner so must he also like to be contrary in your life to go against the crowd in a very high profile way so this tweet was just another attention seeking stunt to get chatter going even though he clearly is still holding back when clearly supporting that point and this entire nonsense about bitcoin not being green is a very poorly fabricated excuse to be negative on an asset that he's holding so he's been contrarian and anti wall street when right now there's this huge amount of investment just pouring in from wall street so i gotta give it to him there's no better way to get attention than to speak out against the crowd but they actually like the subs are getting really really old and you know he's got what around 15000000 twitter followers and he's got in trouble with the f.c.c. for what he tweets now obviously because critical currency as it is regulated it

may not cause much of a problem for him to tweet legally but do you think that you are just holds way too much influence when it comes to investments when it comes to cryptocurrency because of what he's been doing over these years. well yes and no oh yes he does wield a lot of influence and many people would think that he should then have some sort of responsibility to not abuse his power and influence for greed or selfish motives but then again that's speaking very idealistic lee the fact of the matter is that you have your freedom of speech and therefore even to actually say whatever you want on an open platform like twitter so you can't just censor someone from saying stuff just because they wield too much power or influence but yes it could be very dangerous and they could abuse it but then where do we draw the line we really can't and that gets into a very dicey territory that i'd rather not see so yeah at the end of the day it's really the people's fault for idolizing musk and creating this cult. and giving him

all its power and influence because people have got to realize that these are just tweets they're up pinions at best not gospel to be taken seriously so we can all sit here and complain that it's market manipulation or it's a pump and dump scheme that at the end of the day you wouldn't have a company scheme if all the lemmings and musk and boys didn't drink the kool-aid and buy into his every whim and also yes a lot is a visionary and gifted us all with but he has contributed absolutely nothing to the industry other than his loud and frequently misguided opinions he has built on things he's not involved in any project he does lead his name and. that's it and for that he managed to finagle that position himself as a crypto influencer like he bases basically the car dash of the crypto world making headlines by being loud and standing rumors at this point just to clarify i was not in any way of situating that he needed to be silenced i was just making the point that he wields a lot of the influence of social media now kristie you know when he talks about the

fact of how much energy is being consumed does he want must actually have any new information regarding the energy impact of big mining and for that matter i know tesla is supposed to be environmentally friendly but what does he think is charging those vehicles is it on smiles and sunshine no it's also phone call oil how the power is being routed to your home until we go fully renewables for power overall he's really not going to see that anyway so we make of that. exactly there's absolutely no new information nothing has changed in the realm of the coin so it's not like he woke up one day and some we had an epiphany that oh what's that point is a huge amount of electricity i didn't know that yes i can't be green champion and support big quid to my bag so obviously this is not new news for him because back in april and actually actually agreed with jack dorsey a square that decline actually incentivize renewable energy because miners are unique energy buyers and there are some miners face in countries like iceland and

norway where most energy production is almost 100 percent renewable via hydro electricity and geothermal energy so with mining you actually want to maximize the number of her kilowatt and currently the most efficient way is through the use of solar hydroelectric because those are the cheapest way to produce electricity so again no new information here must agree with dorsey on this so why is he suddenly doing this one a day without a better explanation and if he really did feel this way why didn't he elaborate on what he meant because his tweet was so generic so clearly there are other factors and motives a play here and you brought up a very good point because if we're all all on the let's be more green thing by musk unless he switches rockets manufacturing and battery manufacturing where you're actually mining huge huge amount of lithium to more sustainable energy then he's going to look like a child hypocrite here kristie one quick question i got 30 seconds for an answer he mentioned moving to cryptocurrency because they said he still said it was very

viable that it has less than one per cent of the power consumption that because it has quickly does that exist. i mean there are cryptocurrency that uses a lot less energy than think wind there is also eat that is actually making this big push from people who work to put a stake so there is also a huge handfuls of cryptocurrency that are now carney to become the more green are alternative so yes they exist but at the end of the day they all consume energy and it's not up to us to say that consuming energy because for mining decline is a bad use of energy because we all consume energy and we can use it to stream crashed and we needed to stream other silly things so it's not up to one to say one uses energy consumption is better than the other co-hosts christie i thank you so much for the mouse's today. and the colonial pipeline one of the largest fuel delivery pipelines in the united states resumed operations wednesday after ransomware forced it to go offline late last week meanwhile bloomberg is actually

reporting the company paid nearly 5000000 dollars to the hackers behind the attack on friday citing 2 sources familiar with the transaction apparently the company had paid the ransom in crypto currency within hours of realizing their systems had been compromised ensuring the hackers actually provided colonial with a decrypting tool to restore their network although that tool took some time to work now despite resuming operations there are still concerns about the fuel supply chain throughout the eastern portion of the united states president joe biden addressed the situation thursday. this morning reported that fuel is beginning to flow to me jordie the markets that they service and they should be reaching full operational capacity as we speak as i speak to you right now that is good news but i want to be clear will not feel the effects at the pump immediately this is not like fluke you know unless which this pipeline is 5500 miles long it

had never been fully shut down its entire history. in the wake of the cyberattack president biden actually signed an executive order on wednesday evening to prevent another cybersecurity issue like this in the future for more on that let's bring in our chief correspondent fair and friends like now fair and what exactly is in the executive order right so again like you said coming off of the wake of what is a legend that colonial pipeline paid $5000000.00 to this ransomware company well this executive order brand it's opens communication between i.t. services providers and the government it moves the federal government forward to secure cloud services to lead the way requires a baseline security standards for any software that's sold to the government it also establishes a cybersecurity safety review board that has both public and private sector board members it also outlines a playbook of what happens and how to handle these incidents if they happen and when they happen in the future they also are talking about improving detections of

these incidents to kind of get ahead of them before they actually come in and do what we just saw with colonial pipeline and we know that they've happened previously ransomware attacks by how often are they happening so that's the question here we know that they do after happen often however with that executive order bryant what happens is these companies haven't been very transparent in the past this executive order now kind of bridges a communication line from those companies in those. as providers to the government so well we do know that they happened we don't know how often and still maybe after the fact now because they'll have to probably report it but we do know a report last month by the ransomware taskforce they said the amount that people are paying in rent for when some more hackers has increased 311 percent in just 2020 alone with payouts of more than 350000000 and cryptocurrency the average ransom paid by some of these organizations in 2020 was more than 300 k.

but again that executive order raises questions about how much there really has been and do we know if the buy to diminish they should actually knew that colonial was going to pay this ransom so that's another thing so we had a press conference earlier this afternoon from president biden he made it very clear multiple times he is not going to dictate what private companies can or cannot do made because of his republican counterparts and critics were saying do something but biden did say last night they were working closely with them but then the south are new and he said this now i want you to look at it watch what he says how he says it and how he walks away take a look. thank you very much. more on the right i'm really really bad it is going to be. coming. thank you. so there you go maybe saying the quiet part out loud we're not sure but it's looking more and more like they might have down our chief correspondent faired

friends i thank you so much for this. and the world's 1st mass coping 1000 vaccination campaign for children kicked off in the u.s. on thursday after the federal government recommended making the pfizer vaccine available to those aged 12 to 15 president joe biden who hailed the vaccine as safe affected easy fast and free so that as many as $15000.00 pharmacies stood ready to start giving shots on thursday meanwhile at the same time many of the countries being hit hardest by the virus have not been able to secure vaccines to inoculate even health workers or those most at risk of serious illness or death more of this let's go to our to correspondent side to have injured so brian this is a big change because there are about 1x7ww children in the u.s. right now between the ages of 12 and 15 and that represents 5 percent of the u.s.

population now this change would mean that people anyone over the age of 12 they're now eligible to receive a vaccine and it also opens up the possibility that many children will return to a normal life and do things that kids do attend camps this summer and specially returning to in person school this fall which is huge for kids and parents because right now roughly one 3rd of kids between the ages of 13 and 14 there are still in remote learning and and although i have to say children young children are thought to spread the virus less often than adults do their ability to transmit the virus does increase with age and teenagers can often transmit the virus just like adults can and right now with 35 percent of the u.s. population being fully vaccinated at a speed of about $2160000.00 shots per day which means the u.s. can be fully vaccinated but by the end of october this year and that would include

children over the age of 12 and of course with 35 percent fully vaccinated right now it explains why new cases. how fall into some of their lowest level since it read right now about $38000.00 new cases each day and with cases that of course the hospitalizations go down and so do so to death. one of the most contentious things especially here in the united states has been the mask mandates throughout the country in the c.d.c. actually released new guidance on that thursday tell us about that and they sure did so in a move to send the country back to approach toward prepared to make life right normal life the c.d.c. has just ease endora now this is a big change in durham asked wearing guidelines for fully vaccinated people take a listen. today c.d.c. is updating our guidance for fully vaccinated. anyone who is an either in participate in indoor and outdoor activity a large or small without wearing

a mask or physical this is. if you are fully vaccinated you can start doing things that you had stopped doing because of the hand we have all for this moment when we can get back to. normal. but here's a caveat masks are still required in certain endora settings with specific health guidelines like hospitals transit traveling on any public transportation at the airport or an aircraft and it also does raise the question of whether people are going to be telling the truth about being vaccinated because of course is no requirement to prove that you are in specially as more aggressive variants are merging in places like india and south africa because as it stands right now at the moment scientists can't say for certain 400 percent whether the current vaccines will protect you from these more deadly variants bright or spotted side tab thank

you so much for keeping us up to date. and time now for a quick break but when we come back equities are up after 3 days of losses as the u.s. releases more data on inflation we're going to the latest and as we go to break here the numbers of course. it's not all about. good diet it's much more complex than just. understanding really what is good quality food once you've gotten started it's not about these 3 macronutrients because food is actually 70000 chemicals. i now look forward to talking to you all that technology should work for people. i really must obey the orders given the human beings except where such orders that

conflict with the 1st law should your just a nation we should be very careful about artificial intelligence at the point of use the. trust of the shia. in the area and with artificial intelligence was something that i i. i must protect its own existence and. i. welcome back the boeing $737.00 max is set to return to the skies once again one month after an electrical issue forced the company to ground around $100.00 planes the us federal regulators confirmed their approval on wednesday saying they found

a pretty straightforward fix and they're confident in the plane safety moving forward the f.a.a. also noted that the latest issue was unrelated to the major problems with the flight control system that caused 2 deadly crashes which led to the plane's grounding in 2019 with the latest announcement southwest united and american airlines are expected to bring around 60 of the planes back to service and alaska air confirmed it would be adding a dozen more planes to its fleet as travel continues to pick back up here in the united states. as the u.s. labor department released new data thursday regarding the state of inflation in the country the producer price index rose a record 6.2 percent year over year for the month of april a jump of point 6 percent from march p.p.i. measures the prices paid to producers as opposed to the prices consumers paid as we talked about talked about on wednesday the numb. there was up 4.2 percent compared to the year prior for consumers prices for steel mill products jumped more than 18 percent while many food products as well as plastics and materials saw

a significant increase so let's go out and take a look at what this means for the economy and what's moving the markets thursday with october n.z. is the c.e.o. of optimist l.l.c. and joseph gives he hears a founder and c.e.o. of strategy marketplace thank you both for being here today octavio i want to start with you here what's the takeaway from this latest that because i know we've talked about this before we've heard so much of in recent weeks about the fed keeping an eye on inflation jay powell there's all going to be transitory is there anything you're actually seeing there to show you that this is the case. not very much i have to say i mean commodity prices are up all over the place consumer prices up producer prices are up and it's looking like inflation is here and i guess is the fear the fear of every central bank over the course of the past 1015 years even that they've been increasing the money supply and afraid of inflation that's just sort of saying it's the can down the road a bit and it will not happen my watch for the next guy's watch and it seems that

the next guy is jay powell he seems to be a sort of left holding the bag as as inflation takes hold i guess he's also saying that this is a transmission transfer of phenomena and i guess what he's really trying to do is influence people's expectations around inflation he knows full well that if lots of people expect inflation to arrive it will arrive there just as expectations will lead to it so he's trying to basically talk them down sort of persuade them with his powers of persuasion say no don't worry it's all going to be ok i don't think it's terribly convincing i think inflation looks like it's very real at the moment joe so despite this news about inflation being higher than expected markets are actually up thursday after 3 days of losses it is all about buying the dip or is there something else going on there. well brand one of the markets like it's react to news negative or positive through really quickly pretty much the day and we've seen this time and time again each time there was a scent meeting this past year or jobs report then once the dust settles the following day or 2 we have this reversal and that's what's really happening from

what we can tell today look we all know that inflation is creeping up faster than to support it it's almost a matter of when not just a matter of if and if the set can actually essential ation and that's a key indicator here but people are always looking for the positive signals when it comes to investing with the c.d.c. talk about feeling that's a people being 'd able to go back out without masks and despite the fact that we see business is over the u.s. has been a hiring issue the jobless claims up claims number fell to under 500000 which is a pandemic low so the economy should see some more growth going into the summer now we're seeing that now with travel and restaurants growing especially today we know this bull market still has some lakes a grow over the next few months of behind the dip at this time would be it would have been a good move you know rights today but a buyer beware for that summer q 3 q 4 that would be a little more distance at that point and octavio there's a concern that i'm seeing here because the wall street journal is actually reporting that j.p. morgan wells fargo and other banks they point to offer credit cards to people with

no credit scores in this as lending rates have become so low apparently they're going to look at their checking and savings account to chairman whether they've been financially responsible. considering that you know we've heard so much about how the housing market is healthy despite prices being way up and just going like crazy but we are seeing that same type of predatory low in that we saw during the last recession is this concerning to you. not really i think the banks who hold your checking and savings account actually know an awful lot about you so it's not as if they're necessary going to lower the lending standards they might even actually increase their lending standards and say we're going to be more selective or it's really about is that these banks don't want to pay the large for use of the credit bureaus who are the firms a collector or the stager and then come up with a credit score they're basically saying we know more about you than these credit bureaus do we see how much money comes in and we see what you spend on rent or you more which how much you earn how response you know how many checks bounce how

frequent drawn they know a lot about you so they can come up with a credit score probably better than these credit bureaus can so i think they're just trying to avoid those fees and it's not like going to start to hand out credit cards willy nilly to anyone comes along they're going to be cautious with their money so i don't think there's much to worry about here i think it's more about avoiding credit charges and fees that they at the banks really don't like paying joseph i have about 30 seconds for this but bumble actually saw shares fall on thursday after reporting their 1st quarter earnings on wednesday they're down below their i.p.o. price what happened there. you know it's interesting because. revenues are we gauge mentzer so they were reporting you know some good numbers there reporting some goods you know that it's mason there but what's where is the guidance we're talking about that they were going to have a slowdown in growth over the next year with worse which isn't what wall street wants to hear especially with the new i.p.o.'s. the have up with l.l.c. and joseph give the of strategy marketplace thank you both for your analysis today . and finally training cards are making

a big comeback for both physical and digital copy something we've talked about here on blue best quite a bit but target says selling them in the store less is not really worth the trouble anymore the retailer announced trading cards from the m.l. b. n.f.l. n.b.a. and pokémon will no longer be sold in stores after a fight broke out in a wisconsin target parking lot now according to local media in the milwaukee area one man was injured in a fight and it did not stop until he reached for his firearm no shots were actually fired in the victim has a legal concealed carry permit in total 4 people were arrested and taken into custody for battery and disorderly conduct charges during the pandemic card values have skyrocketed and according to the guardian a 1st edition set of pokemon cards recently sold for $400000.00 at auction and that's it for this time you can catch boom bust on demand on portable t.v.

their interest to actually prepare people for this they're just considered to be expendable. americans love by and. this was a fundamental part of how our political leadership and our country at large understood the bargain you get a home and then you know rebel right as the things you don't revolt if you have a stake in the system. you really interesting to dial it back and think about the longer deeper history housings man in the united states not just that old question of the american dream but the bigger question of who the dream is and for .
