promo harbourne are kind of a knack that knew had gemini around the world and that overtaking out of eurasia resources and militarization kevin what about people who say you know all of this is really fascinating it's really interesting all however circumstantial coincidental all can be chalked up to ineptitude by the bush administration to kind of have this event happen they never expected it what's your response to that. well there are a few things that are not gypsy. circumstantial but you're you're right the circumstantial evidence is overwhelming i would say that in some cases some of these suspects can be brought up on charges for example some of them were among those people who are sincere that would want to live in the insider trading like walker is going to be assessed and it's others a lot of directly to congress including russia ever our commander and george tenet the director and she already in there is of course against the law to lie to congress so of course there are there is circumstantial evidence but there is more than that as well right and we have about a minute left but

they have about $632 billion under management and david gordon is head of research for the eurasia group. gentlemen, thank you both for joining me today. david, this long lead-up to whatever will happen in syria has certainly spooked the markets to some degree. what do you expect to happen here, and what impact will it have on the market longer term, do you think? >> yeah, i think -- i think you're likely to see u.s. attacks along with some french components in the next few days, but i think these are going to be very restricted attacks. the obama administration has gone out of its way to really signal what they're going to do and what they're not going to do. i actually think the chances of a retaliatory escalation are pretty slim. so i suspect that we're going to see some -- actually some downward pressure on energy prices in the aftermath of these strikes. >> rick, initially, a lot of the safe havens moved higher, including oil, gold, bonds, as wellme men well. but 24i6 they've pulled back. >> the markets are assessing this as strategic, something that will be done quickly. markets ha

kuchins is our - the director of our russia and eurasia program, and he will put forth what's going on with the russians. >> thanks, andrew. and my apologies for being late. unlike mr. putin last year in deciding not to come to the g-8, and unlike mr. obama deciding not to meet mr. putin in moscow, i did decide to come to the press briefing today. it's kind of an odd role. you know, in russian literature, there is a tradition of the "lishniy chelovek," the superfluous man. and in some ways, i feel a bit like a superfluous man talking about a meeting that is not going to happen, but in a relationship which, frankly, is not in a good place. how's that for an exciting quote? some might call it a train wreck. it's been like watching a slow- moving train wreck for nearly two years right now. what's the good news? well, the good news is that this is not the cuban missile crisis. the good news is that this is not even the georgia war of five years ago in which one could've imagined the possibility of u.s. and russian military forces, perhaps by accident, come into conflict with each other in

fed watchers at the eurasia groups think the president's fight with congress over what to do on syria held summers. in a research note this morning they wrote, quote, we think it means obama is more likely to nominate exactly who he wants for the fed chair even if it looks like confirmation of that candidate may be in jeopardy. the president can't be seen as running from that fight and probably believes republicans would give any nominee no matter how long controversial rough ride. ashley: interesting stuff. now for more on what nominating larry summers will mean for the obama administration my next guest says it would be a fed faux paw, joining me is research group's chief political strategist, you are not a big fan of larry summers as the next head of the federal reserve. why is that? >> he is brilliant and been through the war and has some attributes but my issue is quite simple. i am not sure even win confirmation so the tortured logic peter barnes has cited from the eurasia group that he could well, another flight he has been humiliated over syria. has an enormous fight on the de

classical case is a little farmer in indonesia or southeast asia and this virus hasn't moved out of eurasia and africa. it's never crossed into the americas. they realized the authorities are going to come along and kill it out so they decide they're going to distribute the chickens around the family so they can be at least get a meal out of them so they get the bird to the sun for instance the sun for instance and the stuff sit down his shirt petals off on his bicycle and gets an enormous dose of virus up of his nose indicates deep into the lung and it becomes lethal. it hasn't materialized. we are worried at the moment about a virus called h. 109 which is in china and it's been coming out of live bird markets and infecting humans and it's killing 20% of the humans it has infected. we are very much on top of it and don't think it will be a problem but who can tell. we don't normally get the flu from birds. we get it from other people. they jump occasionally from birds and other species of to us. we transmit the virus and the virus flies but it flies with us. if you have someone on the airp

policy analyst at eurasia group and the chief market strategist at convergex group.ed it then, why not this time in. >> i think there's a lot of logic to that argument. we have seen many debates over years, we've survived them all. it's not pretty while it happens but markets understand it's a state of play in washington, it's not going to change anytime soon and we work through. >> the proximity between a shutdown, which ostensibly you could live with and a default, which ostensibly you cannot, has some more worried this time. >> the closeness of the deadlines makes this pretty tough to call. if you get through the shutdown rick, which we will, i don't think it's a high risk, 20% chance that we head towards a thedown here, you barrel into a more important deadline the debt ceiling. on shutdown, there's a clear way out, looks like senate's going to pass through a cr that doesn't have any of the obama care language, house has to accept it. on the debt ceiling it harder to chart the course, harder to tell you a nice story how to get through it. other than that, default
