mr. jordan have talking to jon ferro. he makes headlines as we speak. hing janet yellen to make that rate increase. when you're thomas jordan of the swiss national bank, is janet yellen your central banker of the world? ewen: you want someone else to take up the heavy lifting. the fed is right front and center. the u.s. economy is in its cycle, rightly so. , janet yellen is the central bank of the world. that is one reason you saw mariota draghi soft peddling last week because the last thing they want is the dollar to be too strong going into next week. -- on theto be any fed side. thinko you and blackrock we will be a year from now removed from negative interest rates? ewen: in europe, no. in switzerland, no. --'re talking about negative a concern would be the inflation remains so subdued that we get a rise in real rates in america without normal rates moving. tom: you heard from esther cameron watt. it -- from mr. cameron watt. it is about nominal versus real rate. coming up, we'll have mr. ferri with mr.rsation thomas jordan. with futures up 11. now f

mr. jordan, for five minutes. >> mr. bersin, in your opening statement you said the0#gç witn we had last week was a patriot. no one's questioning that. but then you also said that she came prepared to answer questions about the visa waiver program last week. i just want to read from the transcript last week. question one. how many visa waiver program overstays are there in the united states? she said, i didn't bring that number. second question, how many overstays in the visa waiver program may have traveled to syria before they got here? do you have that number? her response, i don't know that number. final question was how many people came from the visa waiver program country that are here today and may have been in syria or iraq before they came here? do we know that? i don't have that answer. she obviously wasn't prepared to answer the questions to the subject. does she work for you, mr. bersin? >> yes, sir. >> so why didn't you just come last week? >> i was in london with secretary johnson at the g-6 plus 1 meeting.

let mr jordan speak to that issue. it seems to me that it would be very easy for him to announce that his investigation or whatever it is that they're doing, and the grand jury proceedings, would not be impeded by the release of the grand texas ranger report >>> was there an expectation or a promise, is there a common practice for that kind of a report to be released to the public? >> well, the bottom line is that it is common practice that where you have a traffic stop, the police report, the initial police report would be disclosed. we've not even received the initial police report that insenior authored from the day of this incident. what we're being asked to do is accept information and accept results without a real pure investigation having been done. let's remind ourselves again. mr paul looney who is supposedly the leader of this five-panel evidence prosecutorial body, he a couple of months in an huffington post article announced that they were not looking to determine whether or not there was any sort of wrongd

mr. thomas jordan. what does that mean for currencies? this year if you look, it is the year of currencies. we saw some huge swings in equities, but it was the year where you position yourself on currencies and make money. what happens next year and where do you see the swiss franc? >> i think next year will be a continuation of not only 2015 but an exacerbation of what happens. this'll be a year will they have to make money -- year where they have to make money, as far as currencies are concerned. will be verys volatile in the short-term but also quite directional. the swiss franc will continue to strengthen, the euro will continue to weaken, and sterling will very much oscillate, but it will be slightly stronger than the euro, and maybe not as strong as the dollar. emerging-market currencies, huge dispersion. those that are affected by weakening in terms of trade because of lower commodities, and china, like brazil, russia, south africa, will struggle. those which are outside of that well holdld very value. francine: looking through wha

. >> let's go to rosiland jordan in washington, d.c. what mr.arter has been felt for sometime, not vocalized until now. this incredible frustration. >> reporter: that's because the u.s. is very much concerned about any perceptions in the region that the coalition that is going after isil is primarily the united states. now even though the u.s. is part of the air coalition and there are eight or nine countries taking part depending on whether you are talking about iraq or syria, the fact is, the united states is still dropping about two-thirds of the bombs on isil targets in both countries, and very few of those bombs have been developed by countries from the middle east, so the u.s. is trying to step up the public pressure on these countries to do more if they say that they consider isil a fundamental national security threat. the other point that carter is making during this hearing before the senate armed services committee is that the u.s. is prepared to provide air support to the iraqi military as it finally -- and this is the secretary's wo

jordan. rosalind how significant is what we're hearing from mr. carter?rter: well, the defense secretary said that saudi arabia and other members of the gcc have been preoccupied after their initial air strikes against isil targets notably in iraq, but also in syria. they have been preoccupied with the ongoing civil war inside yemen. and this has been something that the administration has not talked about publicly for sometime. but they were not pleased when the saudi-lead coalition started putings air power and troops inside yemen, because they felt that this was basically turning the u.s.-lead coalition, into a western coalition, not one that included support from neighbors of iraq and of syria. so to have ash carter come back out, peter, and say that the saudis and other members of the gcc need to refocus their efforts is important. it's also worth pointing out that much of the military hardware which the gcc countries have, they have that equipment because of their relationship with the united states, and so the u.s. is saying you need to bring some o

mr. trump on this issue. for the most part. you would have said it differently. you recently got back from jordan. you were at some of these safe zones and you talked to the people there. and one of the comments that struck me when you got back is you said those people really don't want to come here. the majority of people that you met, they want to go back to their own country. >> yeah. they want to go back, and the other thing that they want is for us to support the efforts of those who are trying to provide safe zones for them. another thing we should be looking at is in northeast syria, that's an area that's controlled by the kurds. there's hotels and hospitals and airports, and a lot of the syrians could be resettled there if we gave the kurds what they needed in terms of military equipment to be able to defend them. somehow we don't seem to want to give that to the kurds unless they're doing a specific operation with us. i think that's stupid. they're very reliable and they're good fighters. >> dr. carson, you've taken a hit in the polls in the last couple of weeks. what -- as you analyze th
