ben: that is the view from iran.turn to ukraine and focus on moscow's new general who was appointed the day of the attack on the bridge linking pressure with occupied crimea. it is the first time the kremlin has named a single overall commander of its military campaign in ukraine. the general was appointed aft russia suffered a string of recent defeats, but what do we know about him and how might he change the conflict? he is a veteran commander who led the expedition in syria in 2017. experts have coated him with turning the tide on assad's forces but he was also accused of the indiscriminate bombing that destroyed much of aleppo. he has been jailed twice, once for allegedly selling more pounds. -- wpons. in jun of this year, he became the commander of the russian army group in southern ukraine. he has had a long military career. he is a senr fellow at the jamestown foundation. it is a defense policy think tank. he had this assessment. >> he has been serving in the soviet armed forces started from the early 1980's.

ben, it is very significant, _ kherson? ben, it is very significant, in _ kherson? is l kherson? ben, it is very l significant, in fact it is the kherson? ben, it is very - significant, in fact it is the most significant breakthrough for the ukrainians in the south since the start of this counteroffensive. we have been watching the situation in kherson for weeks, with very little movement in terms of military positions, but that has changed, the ukrainians have reclaimed several villages along the dnipro river, which acts as a natural barrier in that part of the region, and this morning, more reports that the ukrainians have taken back more territory, or villages in that part of the country, and that the russians had had to abandon some positions in the south. so, very significant what is happening in the south. and in the east, the ukrainians seem to be reinforcing positions in the town of lyman, the town that was recaptured over the weekend, a major victory for the ukrainians because it was being used as a transport and logistics hub by the russian forces. and it

ben: time certainly. but also affirmation that the bank of england is going to manage technical because things can break when you have these gilt yields spikes. we have seen a disturbance in the pensions market. the bank of england has to manage that would also take on the inflationary threats. it is a bit of a juggling act. it is managing it ok. the combination of uncertainty about what else can fall over plus the political noise could be a bit of an uneasy ride. francine: we heard from business groups welcoming the chance or the attempt to calm markets but they call this economically rudderless. trade unions are saying, let's go on strike because of the high inflation costs and the return of austerity. ben: [laughter] francine: this is not only about political pandering. ben: there is clearly an economic squeeze. the inflationary challenge, even though the bank of england is tackling it, will take a long time to come under control and a lot of it is not within the bank of england's gift. perhaps it is n

with ben roy's service station one more slide here on ben roy's. this is a tweet. from the journalist jehan jones i don't know if you know jahan jones in 2019 when he posted this tweet, he covered the race beat for the huffington post. he now works. for the readout blog on msnbc. here's what you need to know about jahan. he's really smart and his specialty is black history. in 2019 jahan and i traveled to mississippi together. he got there a day before i did. on that day. he visited brian's grocery and he posted this tweet look at it. he says powerful first day in mississippi here is brian's grocery. and then he posted a picture of the wrong building. he showed up. and he saw one building in ruin and one building beautifully restored. any thought well if this is ground zero the movement, obviously it must be the restored building, but he was wrong. now to his credit this sign that you see on the left hand side of this tweet that tells the story of bryant's grocery. the sign is 33 and a half feet from each building like it is precisely. in the middle, and you know,

ben—gvir electrifies his fans.litics could be about to enter its government. polls suggest his party could get more seats than ever for the extreme right in the coming election. listen, i love israel and... thejihad. why do you want to ask the man they want? they want kill me and kill you, thejihadis. why do you want to expel palestinians you say are disloyal, mr ben—gvir? where tensions flare, ben—gvir will be there to pour on fuel, say his critics. in occupied eastjerusalem, he pulled out his gun, calling for palestinians who throw stones to be shot. he taunted them, saying they'd be mown down. former prime minister benjamin netanyahu, or bibi, rallies his own base. he's nurtured the extreme right, hoping to boost coalition numbers for a return to power. this veteran observer of israeli politics thinks it's a fateful moment. it's a question of what type of democracy and what type of country does it want to have. on the one hand, you have forces like itamar ben—gvir and his partner, bezalel smotrich, led by benjam

i agree with ben here. about the pizzagate conspiracy on the internet channel or their digital footprint, that's qanon, that's crackpot conspiracy theories. all the people that believe in crackpot conspiracy theories are not mentally ill. some may be. that's a small number. they're just basically crackpots. they get lured in, they get radicalized through rep pigs of repetition of what they read on the web, who they associate with, their life becomes like qanon, who they talk to, the rallies they go to, every piece of information they consume becomes a drip, drip, drip. this becomes their phantom community, if you will. that's the community they live in. you know, we talk about them being a loaner, but they're not. they have this community, even though it may be digital to them, it's still the people that they support and want to support. everybody in that community, like ben says, while they may deny they had anything to do with it, yet their cheering on the sentiment of the attack. clearly to me, this is a

astonishing, isn't it ben? just three and _ six years? astonishing, isn't it ben?t it ben? just three and a half - six years? astonishing, isn't it - ben? just three and a half months ago i was standing in this very spot looking at elections at the woman who was on the spot minutes ago reporting on the resignation of the previous prime minister and the conservative leadership. here we are just 100 days later and his successor, liz truss, the forms that same walk and utters a very similar set of words. if you thought yesterday was chaotic the chaos is going to deepen and out of the next few days is going to emerge of at least the conservative party hopes yet another prime minister. they hope they can kind of convention name out of their ranks amongst themselves to avoid a contest amongst conservative party members of the country which will take several months in order to present yet another leader of the country to the country at large and that new prime minister, if they can find someone who can unite the party, and thatis someone who can unite the party, and that

ben: i think it is a tough market.e were very active in media and we were one of the first investors in buzzfeed and a lot of stuff that did well. we almost do no investing there. i think social media has screwed up the industry. tiktok is socking away attention in ways that we never could even imagine. the advertising industry is challenging. there are going to be winners in the digital issues, i do not think there is a lot of venture money to fund new businesses. there'll be more and more consolidation. you will see continued. emily: let us walk that out a little bit. how does that play out? where do you see the consolidation? are we on a path to being destroyed? ben: i would not say on a path to being destroyed, i think people want content. news media is in a particularly dark place with what has happened to trust of media in the country. the business model is news is challenging. a few organizations are doing a good job. one of the big problems as advertisers do not support needs media. it is the most important are

one more slide here on ben roy's. this is a tweet from the journalist, i don't know if you know him. in 2019 when he posted this tweet, he covered the race before the haunting post, he now works for the readout log on msnbc. here is what you need to know about him. he is really smart and his specialty's black history. in 2019 we traveled to mississippi together. he got there a day before i did. on that day he visited bryant's grocery and he posted this tweet. powerful first day in mississippi. here is bryant's grocery, and then he posted a picture of the wrong building. he showed up and he saw one building in ruin and one building beautifully restored and he thought, well if this is ground zero obviously must be the restored building but he was wrong. to his credit, the sign that you see on the left-hand side that tells the story of bryant's grocery, design is a 33 and a half feet from each building. it is precisely in the middle. you know why, right? even if you don't, you know why because when the county put the sig

ben, _ mps, prime minister? ben, 6_ mps, prime minister? ben, a broad - mps, prime minister?? - ben, a broad smile and then a mps, prime minister? _ ben, a broad smile and then a kiss for the representative of the volunteers who organise the party conference every year. so we got a big smile but no answer to the question. would you say, is it fair to suggest that today's article by the prime minister represents something of a shift in acknowledging that it wasn't kind of coincidental that there was this volatility after the budget happens? yes, andi yes, and i think that was echoed by simon clarke, in the interview that he did, where he admitted that it was contentious, the package of proposals that he put forward. but you got no sense from liz truss either from that interview or from simon clarke that they are considering any shift in the course this government is on. they consider the way to achieve economic growth is through tax cuts, significant deregulation and what they call supply—side reforms, and i think you are going to hear them double down on that message over the

ben: the market had a strange reaction. the highest in 40 years, market drops, s&p down 2%, finishing up 2%, you didn't get done it don't get those turnarounds, going back to 1983. it was unexplainable. their excuses tossed out, was earnings? was it politics? there wasn't a good reason for it. jack: when i asked, you went to technical analysis, i'm a skeptic but you make a pretty good case. ben: the market is dominated by machines doing the training. seems like voodoo or something, they do come to play and that happened here with a 50% retracement level when you look at the market as it has gone to covid and where it was in january, half those gains. that is where the market rally started and something to be said for the fact that these computers focused on this point. jack: we have to mention bonds, it posted above 12%, the first time since 2008. ben: it is advertised level since 2007. what they are doing, the market is starting to align itself with what the fed is saying. with the 2 year, 4.5%, close to what people are sa

on "barron's roundtable," ben levisohn, kristin bell strum and jack hough. the market was up huge monday and tuesday and investors got nervous into comes down to that. ben: one of the most depressing gains i've seen in a long time in the stock market, massive rally since december of 2,020 at the market tried to get it back and didn't quite succeed. it was all about what the fed is going to do, we had weak economic data at the beginning of the year, australia's central bank and a lot more than that. the fed is going to pivot but fed governors are not going to pivot and then we got this jobs report. jack: they are not going to change until they slow the economy down. could not have been clearer on this point. next week we will see earnings. will that affect the economy? ben: the market drop has been become of the p/e ratio, people want to pay less for their stocks, higher interest rates, more from the bonds and cause pes, if earnings start to come down we might have another leg down in the market because when the earnings are lower the pe is higher and you bri

ben: the dow, the s&p at the nasdaq finished, but it took a long time to get there.ecially given the news where we had pension funds going up and really good jobless claims numbers. all good news is bad news given the interest rates. the market was holding its own, the nasdaq was close to positive before everything gave up and it was a massive selloff. jack: are we somewhere close to a near-term low or dare i hope for a long-term low? putting a bottom in the market? ben: we are closer to a near-term low but it goes to the fed and as long as the fed is doing that we will see more problems like we saw in england where pension funds had strange financial engineering. now we know what ldis are. then it forced the bank of england to come in and we will see more of that and it will put the fed in a bind where they will have to decide about fighting inflation and risk these kind of things or dial stuff back and i don't there is a good solution, could be a short-term balance of 10% to 15%. jack: real quick, predict black swan, anything? ben: we have to watch payrolls, one nu

ben: it is more realistic this time.ast time we had a rally, rates were expected to go to 3. 5% and then come straight back down and the markets pricing in is nothing like that. we look at rates getting as high as 5% and staying for a while. you look at the fed. what they want to have happen, something they are comfortable with, that probably leaves less room for the fed to shock the market, to have to do any of those things. the market at the same time is pricing in that kind of level and rates. that helps the market get going. jack: is the fed seeing something that makes fed officials think we are finally seeing results? ben: there are signs things are slowing down. an interesting earnings report from an employment firm that pointed out that hiring is slowing down among big companies. the fed is aware that is happening. they know they hiked rates very quickly and monetary policy works with the lab. they came to the point they want to see how it is impacting the economy. jack: companies would rather pair back than go fo
