>> well, actually, mr. abe is advocating a very aggressive easing measures, including a reduction of interest rate on boj current account deposits from 0.1% to 0% or a sub-zero level while conducting unlimited easing. i don't think -- there's two things. in other words -- i mean, unlimited easinging and the reduction of interest rate on the boj current account deposits to a subzero level. it's not easy to imagine that these two are compatible. and if the bank of japan tries to reduce this interest rate to a subzero level, then the bank is not likely to be able to supply a large amount of central bank credit. >> that was teizo taya, professor at mikio university. >>> japan's two major stock exchanges have obtained shareholder approval for a proposed tie-up. shareholders of the tokyo stock exchange and the osaka securities exchange endorsed the plan at extraordinary meetings on tuesday. the two bowerss will be integrated into a new holding company next year. the tie-up is aimed at attracting funds from both japan

of all now with the upcoming election in japan where the likely successor to the prime minister, mr. abedantly clear he expects the next governor of the bank of japan to expand supply of japanese yen in an unlimited fashion. those are the things that are driving gold prices higher. i'm bullish of gold in yen terms. it's been working quite well. the second question, what happened yesterday, still open for debate. what was interesting was on friday, you had a huge expansion of open interest. yesterday you had an actual -- almost a perfect decline by the same amount in open interest. it looks like somebody took a long position -- two things either happened. either a very large hedge fund took a large position and puked on it yesterday. or trying to game the system because of the amount of puts that were put in. there are a lot of people thinking it was a fat finger trade. i thought it was for a while. it doesn't appear to have been. it does appear to me that somebody was liquidating a large trade that they put on last week and got out. stocks got hit and a lot of people got hurt badly. >> d

mr. president, try to be a tad more humble. i knew abe lincoln. you are no abe lincoln.ut seriously, you advised that the world is not going to be transform by him or anybody else. what do you mean? >> the problem is that the middle east, that i think is going to be one area of the world in which most of threats and challenges. it's not a rising china. it's not a russia seeking to regain its power and stature. real threat to american interests seems to be coming from a broken and dysfunctional middle east in which we're stuck and his problem. and had mitt romney become president as well, middle east is divided into migraines on one hand and root canal operations on the other. there are not a lot of opportunities for solutions. >> gregg: pick your poison. you are right. let's talk specifics. let's talk about iran first. you believe that the president should explore and exhaust diplomacy before you are taking military action. you are very specific. let's put this on the screen. you write this, start with an interim arrange. that deals with the issue of enrichment and fores
