surprise so why such a big change and why now. it's a fascinating question and i think that's the question that everyone wants answered hopefully tomorrow when we do have the official introduction of the changes. as you said miller has been seen as donning of as having done a very good job by all objective measures like in stock is back up record sales record profits its position in china is solid its position in the u.s. has improved and it's in many ways back to where it was almost its reputation we will see but consumers haven't lost their taste for volkswagen's they're still buying and has also led ford on electrification efforts which is a big deal for volkswagen's investing heavily and not and of course he under mueller at the biggest fears of what volkswagen could face through the diesel scandal never came to fruition forty to sixty billion euros in penalties was what was expected when this first broke and it was only twenty five so far of course it's not over so why now one one of the worthy here most often is that this wa

it will be not making such a big difference because they we re such a big difference because they werese a merger simply on the grounds of problems for other suppliers and the big issue is a lwa ys suppliers and the big issue is always the customer. are we going to lose out because prices are going to increase, are beginning to lose out because service quality goes down or quality of goods? that is the big issue. we heard a critic saying that they just don't fit together as brands. i'm not really in a position to say, but they are strong in different parts of the country. asda in the north and company macro in the south, but they also constrain each other —— sainsbury‘s in the south. so, whether they are strong in particular areas is not conclusive and you have got to look at the big picture, and the test is, if they're going to be a substantial reduction in competition, and if so, that this problem, i think it is all to play for. martin, thanks for joining us. alfie evans, the terminally ill toddler at the centre of a long legal battle, has died, nearly a week after his life support w

robert: and that is such a big attraction there. i remember when we first started to talk about that, and now people kind of not only associate it with it as the festival, but also it gives the festival a very contemporary feel to it, doesn't it? mari: that's correct. we are bringing people who are singing from the community, as well as from other places such as fresno, we're bringing j-pop and j-rock as well. so, i'm very excited about that aspect that has been growing on the 360. robert: yeah. one of the things that you do is that you work with young people as well as the other generations in terms of melting it altogether and being a part of that. what have you been doing so far this past year, and what have been maybe sort of the highlights for you? jacquelyn: yeah. so, the queen program has been a long standing fixture of the northern california cherry blossom festival, dedicated to developing strong female leaders in the japanese-american community. the young women who participate get the chance to be involved in the community

absolutely, a big studio picture. trying to be as mainstream and is normal in inverted commas as possible. that is a bold thing. that's something i really liked about it. i would say, the downside is, it is occasionallyjust to normal! a little bit more edge would not have gone amiss. occasionally it . a little predictable. i love high is a little predictable. i love high school movies and teen movies, you know the traits and they are all in there. and they feel at this stage a little overfamiliar. what gets it by is the charm. it is an incredibly charming movie. the lead character, the music is great as well, a guy called jack antonov who is a big writer — producer, works with taylor swift. a lot going for it that papers are the crux. it's a little predictable, it is a little too mainstream for me that there is that charm and ultimately, like you said, we can't deny that this is breaking new ground. interesting in america, some celebrities have started buying and screening service and giving away free tickets because

a big fan of todd haynes. me too! is is interesting because i think a year ago, when we saw this on paper, this movie, would have said, well, this is probably going to be an awards contender, and actually, here we are in april and it's being released with very little fanfare and didn't feature in any awards. it's one of those things that couldn've been great and i don't think it quite achieves that. so, as you said, todd haynes directed it, brian selznick wrote it, he made hugo with martin scorsese. so good, quality names. a couple of storylines going on — there's a storyline set in 1977 about a young boy, a deaf boy who runs away to new york to find his father. and then there's a separate story, they ultimately cross over, but there's a separate story set in 1927 new york about a young girl, we can see her here, who falls in love with the city and falls in love with the natural history museum. and i suppose, interestingly, that element is shot in black and white, it's shot a bit like a silent movie from the era, so th

again, not a big system. friday night it's continuing to look like maybe a spotty shower primarily near the coast in the north bay in the late evening hours. better chance of some scattered rain on saturday. only trace amounts to a tenth of an inch. it's not going to ruin your whole weekend. the biggest thing is to watch out for those dropping temperatures. san francisco, upper 50s to about 60. then dry sunday, monday, and tuesday. for the interior valleys, locations away from the coastline, we are going from the average of 77 tomorrow down to 68 on friday. feeling that chill. for this weekend, mid-60s moving on in. we'll likely see things beginning to warm up by next tuesday, wednesday, and thursday. raj and jess, everyone at home, that's when more 70s, potentially more 80s would return. so this little dip, then we're back up again. >> it's just a dip. soon it will be cinco de mayo. we'll have a nice party. thanks, jeff. >>> coming up here at 11:00, special delivery. the new way you can receive your amazon pa

a big announcement. you said you want to spend more time with wife and kids and very understandable and you've said things to me like that privately but i do want to get your reaction to other speculation. listen to the former republican governor of new jersey talking today about your decision. he said, quote, it is a big indicator that the speaker doesn't think he would be speaker any more, if you are a betting person you're betting on the democrats for the house in the fall, unquote. again, i know family played a huge part in the decision, but isn't governor correct that the odds are you wouldn't be speaker any more come january. >> actually, i don't believe that. that's not true. because we have an excellent track record to run on. look at the economy and wages and bonuses and tax reform and regulatory relief. we just rebuilt the military. that is taking place. and we've actually passed an agenda into law, we are -- one of the crazy people that said what we would do after the campaign and we're doing

i would not be holding my breath for a big shift in the underlying policy. isation from some in the tory party that if you give talking the hostile environment rhetoric there is a danger you get tarred as the nasty party, which is a phrase theresa may came up the first place. sajid javid still back the underlying policies of making it difficult for illegal immigrant is to be in the country so we will see a slight change in tone but it will be baby steps and the actual underlying policy will be there for a while. he said he will look at home office structures which is something theresa may did not do when she was in thatjob, so he clearly thinks change is needed and it will be interesting to see what he comes up with. there has been the understandable outcry about the windrush generation, and many people have asked, do you want a government that will be tough on illegal immigrants and would think that theresa may was right. that is the interesting thing, whether part of what happened last week was that potential issue of getting caught between windrush and tal

i think it's fair to say this could be a big distraction for the president, could be a big distraction for the white house. whether it's good or whatever, it comes at a fraught time given what is going on in syria and elsewhere. >> neil: this investigation is going on awhile, sarah. >> right. it's gone on for a really long time, this is really not great timing for the white house. like you mentioned, syria is front and center for them. they're considering whether to retaliate and a big trip coming up as well to south america. >> neil: not good no matter how you look at it. like the president or not. so many things going on. the president weighs tonight we're told when he meets with military leads about what to do with syria. his lawyers wondering about what to do with my relations with you and my correspondence with you. in two wards, a mess.

you do not see a big bid coming into treasuries, not significantly. we woke up wednesday morning stocks are down hard, and treasury down a couple of basis points. what is the signal from the price action coming from treasuries and rates at the moment? bob: great question. our view is that we are seeing a decline in the scarcity value of treasuries, relative to the post crisis period where central banks, including the fed, were treasuries atf large scale through purchase programs. this is clearly going the other way in the u.s. and there's less aggressive purchasing outside the u.s. more importantly, the fiscal impulse coming is increasing the amount of treasury issuance substantially this year and the year after. combined with the fed balance sheet runoff, the issuance per -- four treasury funding in a fiscal deficit is simply creating a more balanced supply -demand dynamic for high-quality assets than we have had at any point in the last eight years. so arguably, the -- clearly, the scarcity value of treasuries is declining. the sensitivity to risk of

it's been a big week for all the cryptos. me >> it's been great we had a tremendous selloff, we were close to 20,000 for bitcoin back in december there's a couple reasons for the selloff that are now dissipating. you had a lot of tax selling for here in the u.s. and in japan. you had regulatory overhang or uncertainty about what was going on globally. that's tending to lift that was kind of a negative sentiment. what's happened through the last couple of weeks, we got through tax day, then finally the other thing we have now is you have a sentiment shift. goldman sachs hiring a crypto trader, and barclays talking about trading. >> i want to -- some viewers may be wondering why i said it's up 6%, other graphics say it's up 1% some of these exchanges they price off midnight, others a 24-hour rolling basis. that's why we sometimes see discrepancies in price coinbase, coindesk, you will still get that arbitrage in pricing, will you not? >> yeah. we still don't have a standardized closing time in bitcoin. it depends on the exchange
