amb. it would probably take a number of weeks, if not months. well, i think this time around, it might be that the prosecutor would try to use this instrument of an announcement to prevent further alleged crimes by either set of targeted individuals, whether it be on the hamas side or on the israeli side. that might be one of the reasons for doing so. sumi: if i could jump in, you mentioned the fact that it perhaps does not come as a surprise. we saw that the icc prosecutor wrote that he had repeatedly called for israel to take urgent action and that those that do not comply with the law should not later when my office does so. but the state department points to something called complementarity, that the court did not give the israeli legal system the time to actually process this. is that a fair point? amb. scheffer: well, one does not know without knowing the inside information about, but were these consultations between the court and the israeli government to satisfy the court that isra

amb.ld: i'm not going to comment on either official statements or on an ultimate final negotiation on the releases and the cease-fire. what is important now is that urgently, today, tomorrow, the day after, as soon as possible, an agreement be reached on both the cease-fire and on the initial release of hostages. we will see where things go from there. sumi: the idf says it is conducting strikes on what it says is hamas terror targets in eastern rafah. israel has been warning tens of thousands of people to evacuate. king abdullah of jordan said that these strikes and an operation in rafah would jeopardize an agreement. do you agree with that? amb. satterfield: the united states -- of president most recently in his phone call with prime minister netanyahu said that we would find it very difficult, if not impossible to support an operation in rafah, given the significant operation that could come to humanitarian assistance and the displacement of persons far beyond the numbers that have been

amb.ld: we were concerned in advance of the rafah operation about two things. first, the effect of displacement, again, because these people have been multiply displaced, of a significant civilian population. that displacement has in fact occurred. our second concern was about the physical impact of an operation, however confined, on the ability to move humanitarian assistance from kerem shalom, from rafah terminal, into gaza proper. and there we have had significant challenges since the operation began. nick: when it comes to the threshold of punishing israel for a rafah operation that the u.s. has warned against. jake sullivan, national security adviser, also said this last week. mr. sullivan: and one of you asked me the last time i was standing at this podium, how are you going to judge this? and i said that there's no mathematical formula. what we're going to be looking at is whether there is a lot of death and destruction from this operation or if it is more precise and proportional.

amb whitman: you focused on investing in innovation, young people and women. did you take that approach and what did you learn that was technically interesting? >> thank you, madam ambassador,ed a present it is good to be with you on the stage. i strongly believe that we are at a moment where we should revisit and upgrade and update the narrative of the relationship between the united states and the continent of africa. when you think about the continent, the median age is 19 years old, 19. it is predicted that by 2050 one in four people occupying space on mother earth will be on the continent of africa. so, when i think of it just from that perspective, many could rightly argue that the future is on the continent of africa.

let's get more insight was shane oliver, head of investment strategy and chief economist at amb capital. lots to digest but the pce will be crucial for the week. shane: i think it probably will be and for us it will come after the markets have closed. those numbers will be looked at closely. there's a chance that core pce will come in at .2 percent. probably a high .2% but it knocks the annual rate down if that's the case and has the effect of dropping us out of the range it's been in for the last few months. so that would certainly be good news. but obviously we will know that one months worth of lower inflation numbers is not enough. the fed wants to see a run of lower inflation numbers before they cut interest rates. haslinda: does it essentially change anything though, shane? we have gone from six cuts for the year to perhaps one or two. what are you expecting? shane: well, i think the reality is, the market was expecting six, at 1.7. the expectation was that would start around march, believe it or not, and of course we have now gone through that, june and july looking unlikely, so
