christi? >> besides the troop buildup along the border, russia is sending troops to kazakhstan because of anti-government protests there that turned violent. how does that complicate things for putin as he juggles these crises on his eastern and southern border? >> yes. that's a good question. kazakhstan and crukraine haven' reported in my career, ukraine is more pro-western and extremely sensitive topic for russia post the fall of communism. ukraine is very keen to become, at least parts of ukraine, are keen to become a western nation that is part of nato. kazakhstan is different. it has been ruled by an autocracy for the last 30 years. i it's on the other end of our asia close to china, and its government has been very close to russia as well. it also relies on russia economically for a large portion of its trade. they're very different situations, but you're right to point out that this strife in kazakhstan and the intervention of russia is unexpected and also raises the question of whether

well, joining us now discuss our analysts and boom bus co host, christy i and ben swan, christy, let's start with you here. now we know it was a pretty rough 24 hours. so can you explain to us what happened? yeah, so crypto has been under pressure since the fed reserve looked to raise interest rates and the sell off in big tech stocks is prompting traders to go risk off, which included a lot of crypto names. and given the massive year that we've had in crypto with the quinn, adoption going mainstream to wall street, that is now playing out like a double edge sword. well, having wall street hedge funds getting into bit coin and others for great for the rally. they're not long term hardliners, and so they'll fell as hedge funds all over began to quickly reduce leverage and cover future margin calls. so a lot of volatility in big coins is nothing new for long term traders. we've had 4050, even 60 percent. draw that before and while they are painful is just a certainty with the quite as it is the only free market asset. there are no circuit breakers and cook demarcus. no market freezes bec

christie: i hope it is.ve was the deputy chief of staff when i was in the white house, and we saw upfront what democracy looks like, warts and all. when you look at people who stormed that building, there have been over 725 people who were charged with what they did. this goes far deeper than tourists or spectators. this goes to a group of people who planned meticulously to come to washington that day, and i lay blame at the feet of donald trump who said we are going to fight and stop the steal that is not what a president is supposed to do. laura: ron christie, thank you so much for being with us tonight. one year after the storming of the capitol, president biden has accused his predecessor donald trump of spreading a web of lies about the 2020 election. mr. trump has responded, accusing mr. biden of trying to divide the country further. this was the scene in washington earlier as theun rose over the dome of the u.s. capitol. today, that building was home to speeches, vigilsnd moments of silence for those

and christy to beds point there. you mentioned on the show actually last week that much of the sell up is coming from new purchasers. not the so called hollers. why is that point so important? it's important because a lot of a small hotel any is caused by the short term trade or the speculators. the new traders, the hedge funds a foam on trader those who are only in it for the fred, rather than what been said. people are holding it as an investment because they believe in the technology. because sure. given the last 24 hours a good chunk you can say, came from some long term crypto trade is operate on leverage to. but the cell was actually not fast enough to be a de leveraging domino effect that we've seen before. otherwise, we will see a cascade of orders, walls of oars. bitcoin fell and kept hitting new stop losses and triggering more margin calls. but that was not the case. we saw the funding rates are normal, not too high. so this wasn't like, traders were blown out of the markets. so this was a methodical unwind

well, certainly continue to keep an eye on it. boom bus been swan and christie. i thank you both for your insight and give and us markets continued their downward spiral, spiral to kick off the week on monday with each of the 3 main indices, diving at least 3 percentage points throughout the day. and we're hearing a lot of talk about a dreaded market correction. now it should be noted after a turbulent start to the day, equities regain much of their losses, but issues still remain now coming off it's worse weeks. and the onset of the pandemic in march of 2020 the s and p 500 had officially fell by 10 percent since highs reached the beginning of the year. but it did re gain some losses mid day. at the same time, the tech having nasdaq is more than 15 percent below its recent highs in november, and the doubt is inching toward correction territory. having fallen roughly 8 percent off its recent hives. now the sell off comes as the leaders of the federal reserve are set to hold their 1st meeting of the year to talk about future policy with inflation in the u. s. risi

you mentioned shrink. place christie, that always. i'm always like that's the point that is one of the big points that we talk about. kevin, i want to go back to your initial points there before we get to the kind of the next topic that i want to hit on there. because you mentioned all of these new factors and it's sometimes, you know, i don't want to be crap when i'm talking about these issues. but the fact is, we're 2 years almost into this pandemic. and when it comes to anything, and this is obviously the side, but when you look at how hard it is, even just get a test in the united states right now. it almost feels as if we didn't learn anything from the last 2 years on how to handle this or even start to be able to adapt. well, yes, we have learned a lot, but adaptation takes time and that's something that we never have had the luxury of doing. it also requires a real change in the way we view our economy and we're moving faster than ever. moves before with respect to communications consultant, that the change of the products and

i'm joined now by my colleague christy plots and christy tell us how significant is this ruling. right, john? well, the really the biggest take away is that a judge is going to allow a lawsuit to go forward that has the aim of spinning off. what's happened instagram away from, from meta. so breaking this company up essentially. i mean, this is something we heard a lot of chatter about over the last year. as rhetoric has sort of taken in more negative tone against big tech. it was both an implicit and explicit threaten analysis of a concrete step in this direction. the f t c basically sees meta as an illegal monopoly because they acquire their competitors as how they see it. and we can think about what's out. for example, we can ask ourselves how does this meaningfully differ from meadows messaging service or instagram? that app is a about sharing photos sharing text with your social network. how does this different from facebook? and this is the argument that the f t c is going to be able to make in court now. so in a fact, we might be seeing a shrinking met averse as it were, bu

boris, christi?house armed services committee briefed on the situation in ukraine thinks that russia will soon launch an invasion. i spoke with republican congressman mike waltz of florida about the buildup of russian forces along the board of ukraine and why americans should care. here is what he shared with us. >> we have seen massive amounts of tanks, planes and ships moving from east to west to the ukrainian border and it's not just the numbers, it's the types of troops. many of them are from his reserves and national guard, which are primarily intended for occupation duty. so i do think this invasion is imminent. americans should care because china is watching, north korea is watching, iran is watching, and our eastern european allies are incredibly concerned and watching. authoritarianism is on the march. >> congressman waltz says he's frustrated military aid from the united states has been slower than he would like to arrive in ukraine. he was part of a bipartisan congressional delegation that

christi and boris? >> jasmine wright from the white house, thanks for walking us through that. >>> let's dig deeper on the crisis in ukraine and also in kazakhstan. we have cnn's nina dos santos in london and fred pleitgen is on the border between kazakhstan and kyrgyzstan. something christi alluded to the russian foreign deputy minister saying that the nation is disappointed with signals it's received from the u.s. in advance of the meetings this week, saying that u.s. doesn't understand russia's needs. what exactly does that mean? limiting the expansion of nato? >> yeah. that's exactly what russia has been talking about for nam of months now. it's put a list of demands, draft demands, in writing a couple times in the run up to these key summits that are taking place in geneva, brussels and vienna throughout the course of the next week or so. those demands notably try to get nato to sign on the dotted line, push back a lot of its eastern european presence and commit to not allowing further post-soviet

and i think markets would really get the point and know christy. i know danielle kind of alluded to this just a few moments ago, but you know, we've seen report after report that all this volatility and markets that week and know over the last 7 days, that is to say which have been dropping and recent days is mostly due to the concern over this monetary tightening over possible rate hikes over q, we coming back. what are you seeing there? well yeah, a lot of equities are falling now that interest rates of bike. so the tenure benchmark yield traded briefly above 1.8 percent on monday and now that we have expectations for re. 1 type that is a lot more than we previously been expecting. and i think the thing is a must have been prepared for the said to start hiking interest rate. they also know that the central bank is putting the amount of on the buys each month that they also figured the paper would lead to this reduction in nearly $9000000.00 an asset holding. so that was all expected and anticipated what was not expected was the possibility of all

and for jo analysts, christy i, and ben swan, christy, let's start with you here. can you give us a breakdown of what issues this white paper explores? sure, it basically provided a very detailed analysis into the many benefits of the cdc, such as the speeding up the electronic payment system and digitizing financial payments. and it will also speed up getting things like stimulus payments out to people quickly when needed. and also providing financial services to the bank. however, some of the downside issues and the report highlighted the financial stability risk, the privacy protection, or lack thereof, and the challenges of guarding against fraud and other legal issues. so it goes on to say that a cbc would fundamentally change the structure of the u. s. financial system and the roles and responsibility of the private sector and the central bank. because most likely private banks would become sort of this hybrid entity operating to help distribute and circulate and maintain the flow of a c, d, c. and if that were the case, then banks would actually worry that i

so christy just said is very important. understand that when there is not it, but when there is a u. s. digital dollar that comes along, the banks will suddenly have to become more like an exchange, as opposed to the banking system that we have today. and the banks don't want that . so what they're going to try to do is car about as best they can ways to make the digital dollar fit their system rather than changing their system to, to fit a digital dollar. but the bottom line here guys is that it is, it is definitely going to happen. we are definitely headed that way because the digital system is a better system. there are a lot of problems with it. we can talk about that, but it is a better system overall and, and a quick example of that is the swift banking system. the fact the big coin has already rendered the swift banking system for international exchange and international deposits. a rendered it a relic. and so now every bank in the world is trying to move to crypto to settle deposits, as opposed to swift. it just pro

it's christy was, was describing just now and there is a duty. it is incumbent upon the fed to make monetary policy, knowing that it's the most powerful central bank in the world, and that it's policies ripple throughout the world economy and even the corporate bond market globally. because of the effect that interest rates have. because there's so much debt that denominated in dollars, whether you're talking about sovereign debt or, or, or corporate debt. and obviously, as you just mentioned, j power will be on the hill this week. but also we're going to get some inflation data on wednesday or this week. analyst expectancy arise at 7 percent from last year. the biggest jump since $982.00. i do see that meeting up the fed timeline even more than with telegraphed in the minutes from december is f o m t meeting. well, when you pile on what we've already heard from the minutes and then the wage inflation data from friday and the fact that you mentioned, we've got a 3 handle in front of the unemployment rate. if we do see that 7 percent print just on

r i christie. i want to start with you on this. how big of an accident are we seeing from the lira to crypto currency? i mean, it's a huge move and this is the 1st time we've seen this. we've seen that move towards bare, quite back when this 1st happen. in 20172018 as well. but now trading volume lira has left to an average of $71000000000.00 a mirror transactions a day. so that more than any volume for speeding 5 quarters. so this movement for the coin is gaining major traction and target citizens are not only getting into big points, but also stable points like the usb tether and the euro tether as well. so the turks, they fully embrace crypto currency despite the official band introduced last year because their distrust of the government economic policies usage still remains very high. and that distrust is very valid because 2 thirds of turkeys bank deposit, armed warren current, it's mainly the us dollar and the euro. and so the banks are loaning these dollars to the central bank and government, which has subsequently used them

christy. let's start with you. now. we know that the federal reserve has been using this term of maximum employment as a target for months now. so are we finally approaching that target and do we know what it could mean for the feds timeline? yeah, so despite the poor job creation, last month, wages rose and the unemployment rate fell below the 4 percent level that the fed official feels is sustainable. so what that means is that there's really nothing to dissuade the fed from raising interest rates in march and shrinking its balance sheet soon after that. and that's the benchmark that they set. so they're going to try really hard to try stick to it, even though it doesn't tell the full story. because as of mid december, the economy was missing about 3600000 jobs relative to the employment levels from just before the pandemic began. so there are basically 2 story lines here, unemployment rate improved, but the labor force participation rate and didn't budge at all. and now this measure include people who don't have jobs

christy . let's start with you now. anytime there are losses in the crypto world, we start hearing warnings of a crypto winter. so what do you make of the latest warnings and is this something we should be concerned about right now? i don't necessarily think that we're in a crypto winter yet. i think this is more of a cooling off period where the market needed to correct themselves and charts needed to resolve themselves and gaps need to be filled. so the crypto market often go through this boom bus cycle and we've had nearly 2 years of the parabolic rally that it's about time that we consolidate before going further. so while equipped the winter is inevitable. i don't think we're there yet. all coins are still quite strong things like luna matic adam, though they're still holding up quite nicely and t market as well. you haven't seen valuations of these valuable collections coming down at all. but a lot of the speculators are getting blown out, which is not surprising at all. so i think that this is just more chop ahea

well, joining us now to discuss is room boss, co host, spend swanner christy i. i want to start with you ben. what, what's the takeaway here? is it a positive sign that we are seeing prices rise by a huge amount month over month? i guess if you're looking for a silver lining, that would be it in terms of the price is not going up, is dramatically month after month after month. however, if we're looking at overall where we were a year ago to where we are now, it is not a good place to be certainly the, the amount that people are spending right now is obviously significantly higher than they would like to be spending. that number does not seem to be dropping even though it may be, it's not rising as quickly as somebody expected. but there is another issue here to inflation is one issue. but there's also, as we've talked about in the show, many times before this issue of supply chain issues. and that is significant as well because the supply chain issues have not been resolved. we have not seen an actual quickening of products, making it through ports. and in the st

christy. looking forward like we've been talking about a lot tonight at especially the midterms next year and even 24. how do you think the republican party best unites itself nationally where you still have, you know a section of the party that obviously would like to see a new face in 24 and even sooner and another section. that's still very much likes president trump is the glenn yonkin model a good model for everywhere. does it vary? what are your thoughts on that? i follow my wife's admonition. and give a short answer two things. first never forget the other side unites us like we could never unite ourselves. and by the way say with the democrats. donald trump united the democrats more than the democrats have been united in my lifetime. so remember part of this process is oh my god, what are they doing? we have to stop them. and republicans are willing to put down some of their differences. in order to stop that. the second piece is that we've got to start talking about the things that vo

i know christy, we know that the fed is now looking at raising interest rates for the 1st time since 2018. i mean, given how careful chairman power has been with investors and really not wanting to make any moves without warning. do you expect him to still tread carefully when it comes to raising rates, or even making these expected changes to the changes to the feds holdings? absolutely, i think it goes without saying that power is still going to be treading very carefully when it comes to raising rates or any changes in fed policy in order to avoid any tape or tantrum so far. he's been doing a very adequate job at communicating, although a lot of the language is quite off and leave a lot of room for interpretation. so the biggest summary of economic projections now sees about 3 hype this year. the timing of the 1st type will be important, as hawk suggests, it could come as early as march, once the asset purchases conclude. so the latest f o m c meeting saw the fed double . it's tapering of asset purchases to $30000000000.00 a month, which will start in january. but the guy we didn'
