red lines. in the early days of his administration of setting out red lines to beijing? well, what i do think is that the administration needs to distinguish between vital national interests, in other words, those interests that the us is prepared to fight over and interests that are, let's call them, very important. but the business of red lines is a complicated one, because basically when you throw down a red line, you're essentially saying that this is a war and peace issue and you're almost taunting your adversary to cross one of those red lines. so, the whole red line business, if it...if it is an enterprise in distinguishing between vital interests and important interests, i think that's an important exercise. but trying to taunt your adversary i think is unwise and doesn't really serve any american interests or those of our allies or partners. itjust strikes me in the course of this conversation, i'm picking up a sense in which you don't want to be drawn into rhetoric which is just out an

so a red line has been drawn, and this is a red line for both the crown prince and for president biden because if the crown prince crosses that red line or is deemed to have crossed that red line, then that's -- you know, if biden doesn't live up to that measure, then that moral authority that chuck hagel was talking about really crumbles in the public view. so this is a red line that this administration will find itself having to live up to. and if there are transgressions, then that's going to put this relationship into great difficulty. it's pressure on the crown prince as well. you know, he's looking around. he wants to make huge changes in saudi arabia, is looking for international investment to sort of bring about structural, societal changes and reforms. and a lot of that investment, he looks towards the united states and european investors who, on the face of it, care about the values of democracy, care about human rights. but he can turn and look to other countries for weapons systems to defend the country against its enemies and for those investments as well. you know, the de

the red line is the cycle.est, though, prices tend to stagnate until the cycle runs the course and we reach the next low. based onnis ihistory, williams thinks we'll see selling pressure again around april but that should pave the way for buying opportunity in july don't fret this is what i was talking about, pain, pain, pain there may be gain. i understand many people want to trade in and i'm not against it. there is another reason the dow average has to do with a different pattern. the one we mentioned before, the linkage with oil prices. it the leading indicator with the stock market based on the historical analysis, they tend to translate into three and a half years down the line check out this chart of the dow from 2010 through 2014 the red line is the price of oil pushed forward roughly three and a half years it uncandid how close it falls can you believe that you can see the same pattern from 2014 to 2018. if you think it's too crazy to be true, believe me, i get it. we know the oil market is tightly lin

you can't incite violence, child pornography is a red line and so is terrorism.onald trump violated two of those very bright red lines, domestic terrorism and inciting violence. so it was the right decision, but should the decision be in the hands of so few people is the issue. agnes, your answer on this question? i would slightly disagree, just in terms of the nature of those companies. yes, by the legal construct they are private corporations and are answerable to their shareholders. by virtue of their size, by virtue of their role, by virtue of the fact they are powering the most important technology for global economy, for the world, at all level, including peace and conflict, for all those reasons i think those corporations are taking a different persona. and i think we need to replace their legal constructions within the era we live in, which is founded very largely by that technology. second, the fact there are so few of them means that they exercise such a strong monopoly of a crucial dimension of our private and social life, our access to information, go

so that's clearly a, quote, unquote, red line. i don't know if you want to describe it as that. >> red line is as old term. we're not going to use it again. >> when you were asked about the minimum wage, you said you're not going to negotiate from here and you want to work through that. so it seems as if the president might be open to dropping the minimum wage from the bill. -- >> i know there's a lot of appetite for what is going to be negotiated. i totally get it, this is a big topic of interest. but what i was just conveying as an example is that ensuring those checks are in the hands of americans is a top priority for the president. i wasn't taking in and out things in the bill. that will be a negotiation that will happen through democrats and republicans in congress. obviously the reconciliation process has just started. there are many opportunities for republicans to offer amendments. there's a whole negotiation that's going to take place. and the president will continue to be engaged with members of both parties through tha
