>> good morning, brian thanks for having me on this morning. into earnings is largely playing out with fees strong and positive trading results which we have seen from the bigger banks. the challenge remains on growth. i think bank of america did a good job of talking up positive outlook for the second half. i have to say i think investors feel like the group has had a really big one and they are very happy now to take some profits and see how things develop in the second half of the year. >> what are they waiting for is it really just an interest rate story everybody thought, r.j., rates would end at 2%. whoops >> credit to you i remember when you tweeted in the middle of june i think the 10-year will close at 1.5%. at the time, that was a non consensus thought. >> thank you >> you're welcome. right now, that is looking like a fairly pressured call. i'm not 100% sure. i have to say we have to also look at how fast and how far the financials move from an under weighted position to an overweighted position in the course of a few months i underst

and brian is making it his mission to destigmatize the topic. and many scientists are in favor of.an is an environmental and reproductive epidemiologist, the author of countdown, how our modern world is threatening sperm counts, altering male and female reproductive developments and imperiling the future of the human race. her team collected and analyzed nearly 200 studies of more than 40,000 men, and they found in western countries, from 1973 to 2011, the average sperm count decreased from 99 million per milliliter, to 47 million, a drop of more than 50%, and a pace that if it were to continue could have an enormous impact. multiple factors may be causing these trends and they are very much up for debate but they generally fall under two categories. lifestyle and environment. things like smoking, drinking, stress, obesity, and age have all been shown to potentially affect fertility, but dr. swan says certain chemicals pervasive in our environment are also having an impact. they're called endocrine disrupting chemicals. these chemicals are found in products many of us use every day

brian: it is hard to say.re are certainly decentralized exchanges that are selling crypto tokens without the intermediary broker. some crypto tokens are securities and some are not classified as securities. it depends on what is being traded. the main takeaway for defi is just the idea that usually in this country, where used to paying middlemen a fee for the privilege of buying stocks and bonds or whatever. we pay a fee to a bank or the stockbroker to do that for us. and the purpose of defi is to eliminate the middleman and make it cheaper. the underlying thing is regulated, the underlying activity should be regulated as well. sonali: you are a primary banking regulator in the u.s. and now your company is more on the defi side of things. so, how concerned should the banking industry be concerned about defi at the end of the day? at what point does it start to be a threat? brian: to me, it depends on whether the banking industry adapts as it always has or if it retreats to something different. if you go back 3
