is this whole thing for him i have to go see bojo and that's it? >> the iconic picture, john, of the last summit where all of the leaders were standing over him gammered with angela merkel leaning in. he had his arms crossed there, body language was he was closed to anything that those leaders wanted to discuss at that meeting. since then we've seen the tensions just layer on within the past year. they were angry over the withdrawal from the paris climate accords. they're angry over the iran nuclear deal, which they support and which the president has been doing his level best to push them into reneging on that as well. and this is just something that is not going to resolve, it's going to continue to get worse and i don't think at this moment that we can predict exactly what that touchstone is going to be, where the controversial headlines will come from but you can be rest assured like evelyn said, given the president has already called this last-minute meeting where he plans to essentially give a maga speech to our european allies, that those te

nymex -- bojo-nomics.alk about the lower bonds. you are chatting with namebrand myself, saying that we could get zero it would be difficult to get below zero in terms of rates in the u.k. and the nine states of america. why -- the united states of america, why? steven: there are some places where it is more difficult because of the current account deficits heard -- deficits. if you go cashless, which is a fact in many parts of the world, just thinking about countries like sweden, most of the nordic countries have already gone cashless. it becomes much easier to run a negative rate. u.k. has to deal with the presence of cash. that will be less of a problem in a few years time. at the moment, the effective lower ground is around zero them other parts, it is way below. nejra: you were saying earlier how bond markets were fun, what are your top trades? steven: they are a lot of fun and there has been a lot of total returns. i like flattening, so 10-year plus in court bonds led by the u.s., still more to do in

so, yeah, it will be interesting to see his interaction with boris johnson, bojo, and what comes outeaders, want to do no harm, want trump to do no harm and want to get out of this with as little damage to that relationship as possible. >> eddie, let's talk about the definition of that term allies. how much of an alliance has changed as a result of president trump's role on the world stage. the meeting before that going back to the mid '80s. how is our notion of what an ally is and what an alliance is changed? >> i think the frame of alliance has changed. for donald trump, it's always a zero sum game. it's always a matter of winners and losers, not a matter of friends and enemies. it's what have you done for me lately. to the extent that's true, the notion of alliance that emerged out of the post world war ii era, that brought this era of peace, quote, unquote, has somewhat been tossed to the side. when you combine that with utter ignorance, the wall of quotations you butt there -- let's be clear. that was a collection of stupidity. what does it mean -- let me add this, too, when you
