what do folks who responded to john sweeney's survey indicates. they indicated two-thirds of them were going to put money into u.s. stocks. mr. sweeney, let me ask you, do you see what brian sees in your complex there at fidelity, namely that people are still underweight u.s. stocks compared with what they ought to be, and is that behavior changing? is the flow of funds more into equities so far this year or not? >> it is, tyler. we're seeing more flows into equities this year which is a good trend. obviously, we've seen a cycle over the last four years, and that's really rocking the boat. and what we need to do is get people back to the middle. think about a diversifiy eied portfolio, we'll see people continue to buy as the population ages. we need to keep inflation in mind. equities are the only place that is really going to outpace inflation over long periods of time. and people investing in whether it's for accumulation or even income distribution, you need to be thinking about inflation when they think about their allocation to equities. >> br

john sweeney is executive vice president of planning and advisory services with fidelity investments. john, certainly this is a big threat for all investors, all income earners, how big is it for long-term investors? >> thanks, tom. a lot of our investors are asking us for help, trying to navigate the tacks tax landscape. and people are asking how they might adjust their portfolios. a couple of things to keep in perspective. when you think about constructing your portfolio, you want to be focused on your long-term goals. if retirement several years away, you want to make sure you have enough earnings power to outpace inflation. equities are going to play a large role in anyone's portfolio. for folks in retirement, they're obviously concerned about income in their portfolios. so we've seen a tremendous shift into fixed income over the last several years. but as people lost sight of the ability for equities to outpace the earnings power of fixed income, and we've seen that a trillion dollars has flown into bond funds, but a lot of the investors have missed out since the lows of '09. >>

john sweeney is an executive vice president at mutual fund giant fidelity investments. he joins us from boston. john, it's great to see you again r most of those mutual fund investors taking too much risk with bonds? >> well, tom, the important thing to think about with bonds is that we've had a flight to bonds as a safety mechanism. people have gotten concerned about the volatility in the equity markets and moved their portfolio to bonds. what we ask folks to i have about is how much bond portfolio dow need in your portfolio. has to be a balanced mix and we ask folks to think about the time horizon in which they need to use the money. most people obviously focused on retirement. i think with the demographic shift of people ageing in america we going to continue to see people continue to buy bonds as they put more ballast in their portfolio. i want to caution though and say that at the same time you need to have some significant equity exposure on rising that investors might make as they approach retirement is they need to have some equity exposure to make sure they can

he cut his teeth in labor organizing at the feet of john sweeney when john sweeney was the head of the service employees international union. it was with john sweeney's blessing that ron bloom went on to harvard business school. their intention was that he should insinuate himself in the business world, understand how their antagonistic enemies work and go back into the labor union and use what he knew to shake down and to make them bend to their will, and that's what he has done over the last several decades. glenn: i think what president obama and his team misunderstand is this is not about the democrats or obama. this is about the democrats and the republicans knowing, knowing in their gut that big labor is not the answer. this is actually from a new book that comes out at the end of this month. that's me, the book czar! buy the book, he commands you to! he commands you! we made this book so you can give it to your kids and your grandkids to understand what is going on and make it entertaining, because quite honestly, i'm riddled with a.d.d. but here is obama as spider-man. these ar

counters in florida tried to figure out who won the presidential election, it was congressman john sweeneyk who played a key role in dispatching republican operatives to florida to where the ballot counting was happening, and he famously ordered them to, quote, shut it down. sweeney uttered a three-word order to his troops, shut it down. he was really the orchestrator of what became known as the brooks brothers riot to shut down the ballot counting effort in favor of george w. bush. for his efforts that year, president george w. bush nicknamed him -- his nickname for him was, forgive me, congressman kick ass. congressman sweeney was also known less favorably for his junkets with lobbyists, and in the spring of that election year, he made national news for being spotted as a grown man at a frat party in schenectady. what was he doing there? by the fall, the party was over for him. john sweeney lost his bid for a fifth term in office. his upstate new york district had not elected a democrat to congress in nearly 30 years, but the democrat they picked that year at the time was interesting. sh

john sweeney lost his bid for a fifth term in office. upstate new york district had not elected a democrat to congress in nearly 30 years, but the democrat they picked that year at the time was interesting. she was not seen as all that big of an ideological shift because at the time the democrat who replaced congressman sweeney that year in that district, she had conservative bona fides. she had an "a" rating from the nra. she said she wanted to make english the official language of the united states. she opposed amnesty for undocumented immigrants. she used the phrase illegal aliens when she talked about that issue. that conservative congresswoman was kirsten gillibrand, now senator gillibrand, who was not seen as a conservative at all. senator gillibrand has had a transformation. she has changed a great deal on policy in the decades since she was a card-carrying member of the blue dog democrats from an upstate conservative district. after she was first appointed to the senate in 2009 to fill hillary clinton's senate seat when hillary c

john sweeney, bbc news.as told the bbc that all ethnic groups are equal in xianjiang. in a statement it said: the us will end all funding for the un agency that supports palestinian refugees. washington had already drastically cut its support for the agency, which helps more than five million palestinians in gaza and the west bank, and in other countries neighbouring israel. the state department described the un relief and work agency as irredeemably flawed, and said washington will hold talks with the un and others to consider new approaches to the conflict between israel and the palestinians. for more on this decision let's go live to chris buckler in washington. i gather there has been a response from the agency. what they said? the american statement made it clear that as far as they were concerned, they were concerned by the financial impact on america, and they felt that they were lifting the burden on this. but there is deep criticism of the programme itself, talking about it being in crisis mode for

john sweeney reporting there. most senior anti— terror officer. today in westminster we saw tragic events unfold and our thoughts are with those who lost loved ones, those who are injured and all those effected by this attack. one of those who died today was a police officer, pc keith palmer, a member of our parliamentary and diplomatic protection command. keith, aged a8 had 15 years service, and was a husband and father. he was someone who left for work today expecting to return home at the end of his shift and he had every right to expect that would happen. i can also now confirm that there are three members of the public who have lost their lives in the attack. specially trained family liaison officers have been deployed to support them. and as i confirmed earlier, the suspected attacker was shot dead by an armed officer. therefore now in total we have five people who died today. i will not comment on this stage as to the identity of the attacker but our working assumption is that he was inspired by internation

and i know the individual john sweeney has written to the pool to say he was at the b.b.c. and he's come forward to accuse them of having an agenda or not reporting things in a way. british prime minister boris johnson has been joining the climate change chorus at the u.k. africa investment summit but while calling out the dangers of carbon emissions while the 90 percent of the major deals signed at the event for fossil fuels it was dusty picks up the story. in a short space of time the poorest johnson has been prime minister we already know he isn't always one to stick to his word especially when it comes to striking deals but this could be one of his. remember those comments at the beginning of the week all about supporting clean energy in africa to put it simply not another penny of u.k. taxpayers' money would be directly invested in. burning it for electricity because well you know we all breathe the same the same. carbon emissions rise in the. same circuit right wrong it's been uncovered that in fact the united kingdom spend billions of pounds of broad supporting fossi
