9:30 am
i don't think they can't ride on police report in december 2020 a group of anti finishes. fill out a film crew access for 3 months. 3rd row like people, organization. it's an idea that must be opposed to channel out the gate ground. they make their faces, but they can say what they believe and we believe and help our community. we believe that fascism is one of the major threats to the united states as gotten driven. this is a chance to see who and teeth are really are in order for me. my 1st amendment right and say that my life matter. i have to be onto the teeth of that. that's how we can trust the police. we can't trust the government. we can't trust anyone except or so to protect ourselves in the
9:31 am
the boom, but the one business show you can't afford to bridge boar and washington coming up, employees in gauges, continue to rise as the global vaccination process continues to move forward straight. and we're going to break down the numbers and what it mean for the u. s. economy plus as criptos, popularity has stored. so has the crackdown on mining. we bring you the latest on the growing criticism of the world's foremost crypto currency. then we turned to the olympics where japan has faith criticism for their decision to move forward with the game. later on, we discussed the big money involved, another major headlines coming from the world. sports pack show today with dive right in. and we lead the program with new data about the state of inflation in the united states. prices rose 3.9 percent and may compared to a year go. the commerce department reported friday. this was
9:32 am
a point 4 percent increase from the previous month. now if you exclude volatile food and energy prices, the core personal expenditures, price index increased point 5 percent for the month up 3.4 percent year over year. the biggest jump in nearly 3 decades. now, the u. s. federal reserve recently increased its inflation target to 3.4 percent, but the central bank maintains this will only be a temporary or as drone power tends to say, transitory rate or inflation increase. so let's take a look at this with some expert analysis from boom bus, co host to chris the i. christy i want to start with the fed is the fed is backing itself into a corner, saying that there's inflation is transitory. what happens when it's not? oh, good question. by then the fed will be way behind the curve and it'll just be too late. so the fed has continuously underestimated the increase in inflation and
9:33 am
still expects that old drop back down to around 2 percent in 2022. so that's the kind of wishful thinking to me. because in the last year and a half, the fed has introduced more broad money into the american economy in the shortest time than we have ever seen at any point in american history. so given that i don't see how any inflation here can possibly be transitory and be there now expect for us inflation to remain elevated for the next 2 to 4 years and remain in the 2 to 4 percent range. the analysts went on to say that it was, quote, fascinating, so many being inflation as transitory when stimulus economic growth asset commodity housing inflation are all deemed permanent. so the 1st have a 2021 is now drop into clothes and now lation hawkish, central bank speaker, growth are going to be the key thing to watch out for the 2nd half. so yeah, i think that that is just fooling it's. i'll try to reassure everyone, there's absolutely nothing to worry about. almost trying to deny that the flood
9:34 am
heading your way because you want to see the house when you already see water creeping up on the front porch. and meanwhile, it looks like president biden's, $1.00 trillion dollar infrastructure plan, which actually includes $579000000000.00 in new spending is gaining some momentum as there has been a bipartisan deal there. how would you go, how is this going to compete with, say, china belton road initiative, which is a huge infrastructure project for mine, and is now under a lot of pressure to compete with china. and this, that's why fi is pressuring to pass his infrastructure program to fix all these bridges, mass transit, modernize airport, extend broadband, and basically everything needed to get on par with china. and this is meant as a response to try to spell to run initiative. but the use of playing a catch up game here, because china spends more than 2 times on infrastructure, then the u. s. according to the figures from the council on foreign relations, it puts us at 2.4 percent of gdp spend compared to 8 percent spend in china and infrastructure,
9:35 am
and china and maintaining that paid for several years now while the us mainly on the fence. so chinese mayers are also motivated to build boldly that they expect job postings to new cities every year. and government officials are actually rewarded on how much improvement they can make physically. so places like shanghai, both one of the world's longest busiest, metro carrying more than 10000000 passengers daily. so i mean, given that bite and has pretty much declare the u. s. is going to be in heavy competitions with china forks. everything from tech to green energy to trade. i think he has to try to find a way to boost us infrastructure, which is very much outdated in comparison, especially when i g and connectivity is one of the main areas of competition. and chris, it seems like, while the market is so concerned about the pending inflation monster vis bite and pumping so much more stimulus into the economy in the form of this infrastructure plant. can this backfired over heap the economy with more spending it
9:36 am
absolutely could. and senate minority leader mcconnell recently warned that the vital current budget proposal would quote, drought american families in debt deficit and inflation. i mean, the economy is already hot and the 1st plan of action is to put more money in. so pricing pressures are real from everything, from gasoline to lumber, but apparently, white health is spending alongside that the return of inflation will last. so this infrastructure plan is like another stimulus shot, introducing new money, new capital into the economy at a time when we already so concerned about overheating. so there's a lot of unknowns here, but it does raise the potential that inflation could heat up and get out of control . because the reality is, as you know, that in dc, everything is an immediate short term political decision. so of course they're going to say that inflation is not really a concern at all in order to get their agenda. one sensation really does become a problem and we're sitting with 81970000 question. again, the term is up and becomes not my problem anymore. so if we do have bias latest
9:37 am
infrastructure plan, which has about $600000000.00 and new spend, that takes a running tally of global monetary and fiscal stimulus to $30.00 trillion in the past 15 months. just thought, i think it 30.5 trillion, that's the equivalent to the entire chinese and european g d p. so there's any confusion as to why despite millions are still unemployed. and yet consumer spending is now far. 7 higher than ever was before the cold pandemic. that's why christie, we know, as you just said, to be the legislators here washington. they love to legislate crisis to crisis though to your 1st point on that last one there. i'd like to find that policy that mitch mcconnell agrees with joe biden boone by the coast. christy i thank you so much. thank you. the global markets were mostly up this week as the recovery continues. let's start in
9:38 am
russia where the mo, x is up. now while increase tensions with nato threatened to break out in the black sea, it was that conflict along with the continued recovery that oil prices to their highest point since 2018 on wednesday. the rubel was up point 2 percent hitting a one week high against the dollar. moving to asian markets, the shanghai composite is also in the green. the index was up more than 2 and a half percent on the week responding to the u. s. federal reserve signal that it would keep interest rates low health care stacks are gaines this week, half of the country approved it's 1st car, t cell therapy on wednesday, which aims to treat certain kinds of later stage. cancer in hong kong to hang saying is up gaining 1.4 percent on friday alone, we saw gaines in the tech sector to close out the week with $107.00 ali baba. they were each up more than 2.5 percent. and my one story nearly 5 percent. it's another green arrow in japan where the ne k is following trends in the region. in its

latest report, the government said the japanese economy is still very heavily impacted by the pandemic in all areas. as it gears up for the tokyo olympic games and next month, now let's move over to india where the syntax is up, address passing, 53000 for the 1st time ever this week, the index was fueled by a record number of vaccinations against koby 19 with india administering 8300000 doses on monday alone as cases continue to climb and restrictions are lifted. we have our 1st red arrow for the week and show you where the assets ended the week down despite a rally on friday. kennedy over trade with china, with all the way to the world trade organization this week is australian officials that they plan to vigorously defend their actions in response to complaint from beijing. in south africa, the all share is up data release this week, show that in place and hit a 30 month high in may. however, the government is not expected to raise interest rates any time soon. let's move
9:40 am
over to europe and the america, where we're seeing more of the same, the foot, the is in the green, the bank of england acknowledge on thursday that the global recovery has been somewhat stronger than anticipated, but it will keep interest rates and asset purchases unchanged as expected, inflation to eventually hit 3 percent, the german dax and french cack. they were both up this week as well. airlines took a hit and made concerts that block leaders would move to locked down borders to stop the spread of cobra. the variance. but we did see some gains in retail in germany that did it was the stand out here with shares up more than 5 percent moving across the atlantic to brazil. the eco best buy is in the red falling from positive territory on friday afternoon. the rail was up nearly one percent to hit one year highs this week. the serge came in response to the news that brazil central bank is that to raise interest rate by $100.00 basis points marking a 4th straight increase to can pat rising inflation in the country in mexico. the b m b is up because the central bank also respond to rising inflation,
9:41 am
making the unexpected unexpected. that is to say, decision to raise interest rate by a quarter point 2, board point 25 percent the pace of rally 2 percent in response to that news. moving north of the u. s. the down the nasdaq and s a p. they all finished the week in the green with the s p, heading fresh record highs on friday. margaret's responded to the body to administration. and now put that democrats and republicans have made a deal to support a $579000000000.00 infrastructure plan. after months of debate and finishing things out in candidate the csx is up. the index has already seen gains of nearly 16 percent for the year, with the latest increase fuel by mining stock and a report that domestic wholesale trade was at 1 point one percent in may. moving into next week, we will can, to keep an eye on global tensions and inflation impact on that ongoing recovery. and that is your global market walk.
9:42 am
and there has been so much news writing bitcoin over the past few weeks that we want to catch up on a couple of items today that includes an under reported story that chinese bitcoin miners are being forced to flee the country because of the nation's recent crack down, let's bring in boom bus, co hosting crypto analysts fence one to discuss. been what's happening with china sweeping ban on crypto currency mining reports indicate that the band has paralyzed the industry there. yeah, paralyzed is a good word for them and you literally have big point miners sewing their equipment like it's, you know, scrap metal. essentially they're, they're free in the country for the most part because you cannot mind. so specifically in the ship, one province where a lot of this money took place. in fact, it was the province in which about half of all the world's big point supply with being mind no more. and so what do you do if you're in those areas where a lot of the coin minors are leaving the country, they're going everywhere from august on all the way to texas to try to find
9:43 am
a way to get back into the mining business because they can't do it in china, the crack down there, the chinese government's not playing around with it. they're very serious about cracking down on crypt occurrences including bitcoin. obviously, brenda's, we've talked about because they are creating their own central bank currency. but the digital currency, china's cdc, will be kind of a 1st of its kind in many ways, even though other countries have done it. none to the extent that china is china is also unique in that they are cracking down on competition ahead of the release of their c, b c. and speaking of binding here as those minors are looking for places where the former mayor of plattsburgh new york on thursday can out on the economic benefit of minor is setting up shop in the region. it is actually interesting because the mayor of miami was also talking about making it a 4 bit coin mining as the these rules are changing elsewhere. so why is the former mayor plats for making this discussion about big money? yeah, well essentially what he's saying is, look,
9:44 am
we wanted the big point miners to com, one of the largest mining operations in the world. he says, moved up to a fly from new york. the problem is that when they pretend to generate a lot of electricity and use a lot of electricity, which they're going does the, the price of electricity for the entire region, not the entire town, which is about 900000 people, went up for everyone. so apparently people living in that in that town were furious because their electric bills became sky high because the rate that they were being charged because of the town usage increase. so what he's saying is a, this is, this is not as of a deal as you might think. it is. now, you're absolutely right. when you say, the mayor of miami is talking about bringing the coin money in their hand. the minor should come here. we're a big one. miners need to go candidly. they need to go where there is natural energy. so areas where there are waterfall, which there aren't in miami areas where there are strong rivers, which obviously platform has. but you have to be able to set up ways of drawing energy from those sources. if we were smart about bitcoin, energy consumption will set up in areas where they're strong, wind energy,
9:45 am
strong solar, and strong water, kinetic energy in order to be able to build systems that are kind of clean energy. i think it can be done. it is being done in some cases i have some friends who are doing that, but it's not being done everywhere. well, that's something salvador was talking about with using the g o for a thermal heat to generate the energy as well. and financial services companies are rolling out new products and services that allow more everyday investors to ad bitcoin and other virtual currencies to their nest eggs. with the fall that bitcoin and other coins have taken over the last few weeks will something like this have a hard time getting off the ground and i have about 35 seconds here for you been? yeah, i think it will have a hard time getting off the ground will make this quick because, you know, i think one of the struggles is that if you want to be in the long term game, it's great for that. so with retirement, if you're planning to put money in and hold it for a long time, because would be the way to go by bus been swan. thank you so much for your insight
9:46 am
today. you got to thanks and time now for a quick break, but when we come back, we turn again to the olympics or japan, his face criticism for their decision to move forward with the game. later on we're going to discuss the big money involved in other major sports headlines. and as we go to break here, the number that's close, the the i
9:47 am
the for the 1st 9 months, there was no improvement in the virus. it jumped out fully made. now that is a real sign of what's called gain of function work. i think in function where you take up virus, you want to make it more lethal. so you're exposed to human eyes. mice. it makes many, many, many, many, many cycles. and in just a few months, you get something that appears to have evolved over years. and the fact that this, when this came out was all ready adapted for human transmission is again, an unprecedented use me. so to at the gwinnett college that are you good can each other than the human russell, but i hope so, but over the over the,
9:48 am
the book called up to you. this is the motion learning in the senior course, mrs. mr. bob rhodes. i should been good. we think he might be a soldier. if he's off the brute she's wearing your twitched up. took a puzzled look. when was the young on this? you're still watching, please. i i welcome back. after
9:49 am
being postponed for a year, did the cobra 1900 pandemic, the tokyo, limbic games are set to kick off in less than a month. and just this week, it was a note that the venue that the games will allow 10000 domestic spectators. now that's despite warnings from experts who say, holding events without fans, is the safest option. as japan face several states of emergency due to outbreaks in the nation, many called for the games to be cancelled. in fact, polls in april showed 70 percent of citizens did not want the game to go ahead as plan. so why go ahead with the games? well, there are many reasons, but a big one. you guess it, it's money. it is estimated that japan will have spent as much as $35000000000.00 to host the game on a $7500000000.00 budget. and organizers even say the delay ran the budget up by $3000000000.00. along with that, there are huge money and global sponsorship deals and television rights for the games that hasn't always been the case. earlier i spoke with john worth time is the
9:50 am
executive editor and sport at sports illustrated, an author of glory days in the summer of $984.00 in the 90 days. that changed sports and culture forever. the book kind of, we've some of the biggest story lines of basketball candidates, hockey, and boxing history with an overall arch about the 1984 olympic games. i started the conversation by asking him about the fact that some believe the 84 games could be the last with newsweek, even having a cover story asking, are the games dead in sure, you had one individual say we got to start treating this like a business that was peter, you, brock, you're right. i mean the games just kind of go go through the chronology and in 72, there was a horrible terrorism attack in, in munich, 76. you are the huge cost overruns in montreal that canada took up 30 years for canada and called back in montreal to pay this off $80.00. there was a boy god, 84 people are thinking, this may be it for the olympic movement. and peter,
9:51 am
you brought look what we're not going to do what you just described going on in japan. we're not going to have huge investment in facilities. we're going to sell sponsorships. we're going to networks against each other, make them bid on these media, right? feel the games that are have profit, a surplus that i think we talk about the olympics in tokyo and no one's saying, oh, this is about the athlete that the given the rotors that should have one more chance to compete. it's all about the finances and you can draw a direct line from, from that and i can 84. and how big was the television rights? and we've seen this explode throughout sports over those last about 40 years. is that one of the big angles that actually not to say they were profitable, but they were able to, to break even and use some of that revenue for future labor games and to compensate the people involved? yeah, it was, it was tv. i mean, it was, it was a b c network that the bid didn't 9 years, which at the time was gargantuan. it pales in comparison to what nbc, of course is saying now,
9:52 am
but the other thing was authorship. then the total elliptic sponsorship in 1980 game, the late placid, the previous olympics in the us with about $10000000.00 combined. peter, uber, i said, wait a 2nd, we need to, fewer sponsors pay it a lot more money. we're going to make it competitive. one of the very 1st b, it was for beverages and coke and pepsi squared off coke b to $12000000.00. so for one beverage sponsorship from coke clips, the entire sponsorship for the previous olympic any in 1988, it's only grown since then. i want to clarify again to your point exactly. now those numbers might not seem huge by today's standards, but back then that was huge money involved. now you also address 1984 supreme court case regarding college football and television, right? and while the schools one, the right to actually negotiate their own deals, there is a line in the opinion of the n p, a versus board of regents decision that actually stays quote, in order to preserve the character and quality of the product, athletes must be paid and must be required to attend class and the like,
9:53 am
why did this simple statement have such an impact preventing athletes from being compensated for, you know, for those of almost 40 years now? yeah, this is the supreme court case in the summer of 84. it will have the echoes to what's, what's happened in the last few days. and this basically gave schools the right to negotiate their own tv deals. this was not armageddon. the cmc predicted again parallel. so today that we may want to consider, but there was align, if you say, any opinion basically say, you know, these need to be kept amateurs, college sports or about amateur athletic. and that was seized upon by the amc a and this was not a favorable ruling to the m p a, but that one line, a victim, that one line, the opinion, the n t a seize upon for i would say 37 years and we can talk about recent events that may have a pen to that, but this was a supreme court decision, 84 that didn't get a lot of attention, but that would have
9:54 am
a huge impact in the future of college sports for you know, really, really up into the present. and that's exactly what i wanted to bring it to, to the news of this week because it is that no longer relevant as we have seen, the supreme court ruling favor of athletes receiving what they say is unlimited benefits tied to education and the n c a now pushing further into compensating the student athletes for name, image, and likeness. right? yeah. well we had, it was not just of course that you wrote the opinion about your bread cavanaugh writing and potentially you know, a content to compare that with it. they bring it on essentially like this is a fairly narrow ruling about paying for education and laptops and other sort of education related expenses. but the door is definitely open for a broader reading and a broader challenge to the n c. a cartel to amateur is i'm, i think it can be very interesting to see how schools, how broad they go in terms of the educational benefits that are now on the table.
9:55 am
but you sort of have a sense that the, you know, the, the iceberg is melting a little bit, you know, be interesting to see if we can move the ball, no pun intended, from the educational benefits to outright compensation. well, and that's what i was going to up to, is with the name and image and likeness rights that had been talked about, because the anthea, that actually looks like they're going to move forward to kind of have a uniform policy on that. and that's mostly due to statewide legislation that hasn't gone to the supreme court, or they actually were you think about the supreme court weighing in on that? so they're just saying, let's, let's take care of it now. yeah, i mean what, what they say their public statements might be very different from their private stands. i just think that you sort of play out this model and we all understand that the revenue sport actually you, our football team that generates, you know, tens of millions of hundreds of millions of dollars. probably those are athletes that ought to be compensated. i think what's going to be really interesting is just to see where these dividing points are and i think we all, yeah,
9:56 am
most people i think a grid. i know that this is empirical. most people feel like college athletes generating revenue should be compensated. i think what people don't always graph is how few color and narrow the subset is and there are, you know, 95 percent of college athletes aren't in revenue sports. and some of the athletes in revenue, sports are the money generators. so we talk about, we talk about naming image and likeness that we talk about compensation. and i think it's a pretty narrow band of athletes that this will, this way impact john worth. i'm offer of glory days. the summer of 984 in 90 days. that change sports and culture forever. thank you so much fun. and finally, the space tourism race is heating up as the federal aviation administration has approved virgin galactic the fly. people in the space, the company and now it's friday. now the news comes is billionaire richard branson's company is competing with the likes of amazon founder jeff bezos is blue
9:57 am
origin and eli and musk space x. in may, virgin glass completed its 1st manned space flight of its space ship to aircraft, from it's brand new space port in new mexico. boy, is that a lot of space version? galactic stocks served as much as 36 percent on the news friday above $55.00 per share. nearly reaching the highs inside february before it had plummeted back to $15.00 a share. and that's it for this time you can catch boom bus on demand on the brand new portable tv app available on smartphones and tablets to google play in the apple app store. by searching portable tv, portable tv can also be downloaded on newer model. samsung, smart tv as well as roku devices, or you can simply check it out at portable dot tv. well see next time here on boom bus. ah, ah,
