portugal is still a mess. >> where are you on portugal? we probably should have been talking about portugal weeks ago. >> almost 21%. >> the spread between german boons is about 17% now and it keeps going to new record highs every day and part of that is it has been removed from some indices since it got put on junk status. they do have similar debt and deficit dynamics to greece. they do have a few positives. the parliament has been positive. they don't have a lot of intercountry fighting on that one. they have cut public sector wages. they have taken some about big reform steps. so that's good but that's about it on my positive list. >> but portugal was on -- the firewall -- the firewall didn't come until after portugal. portugal is small enough. it was spain and italy and france was where. port fwugal we've been writing . >> we've been writing off greece, too. look how much we talk about it. >> and greece is written off. >> you are not worried about greece. >> what will -- >> it is a union different than if they just default. >> that's

the latest imf forecast for spain, italy, portugal. these countries will contract more than was in the original budget plan, which means their budget situation will get worse not better. >> oh, it is. it's that imbalance between these very high interest rates on the debt and, therefore, your interest burden is growing and your economy is not. the economy is the way to pay that interest burden. i think you have it right, ross. there's this imbalance out there that will persist over time and we try to keep on catching up all the time but we're getting into this crisis fatigue in the marketplace and that's why i think an investor looking at this says, heck, the euro is going to weaken. interest rates in europe are going up. i want to be some place else. i'll be in emerging markets. i'll be in the u.s. equity market. i just want to avoid europe right now because of the fatigue in terms of crisis. >> john, hi, this is christine here in asia. we've heard the imf say they are resilient. how resilient is the u.s. economy to what's happening ov

france, portugal, spain had a there is downgraded by two notches. portugal is now categorized in the junk status, which means it is as bad as greece. those that have lent to portugal now face of defaults and serious losses. france has been downgraded by one notch and a number of other countries, nine in total. what i found really extraordinary is that this affected all of the members of the eurozone. only one has a stable outlook. some will say that this is simply a statement of the obvious, that they have a financial crisis. it might exacerbate that crisis because it might make it harder for some of these countries, in particular portugal. i think one has to be worried about the fact that the economy is contracting so far. the other thing about today, friday the 13th is the talks between greece's creditors and the greek government broke down. that raises the risk of a default by greece. many people have probably said to you, we expected this default. actually, as and when it comes, it will do significant damage because the eurozone has still not pu

what's your read now how portugal yields are priced?> the problem with portuguese yields is that the market trading is extremely thin so buying or selling moves the markets massively so they're not great indicator actually of where the risks are. the risks are high because, as you know, the program provides through 2013 and it's unclear whether that will be sufficient. >> the markets worry we may see haircuts on debt similar to greece and the whole way through last week in davos we heard from germany saying greece is a unique situation. it's one off. do you think we will see haircuts on portuguese debts? >> this is a very difficult question at this stage. there is an important difference between greece and portugal. in portugal when the program was initiated in june last year. both signed the program so the program implementation which was really bad in greece may be better in portugal and if they do implement what they committed to, even if they deliver -- they don't want to meet the targets but if they implement we may see more coming

i know, portugal is not large. i understand that. but neither was greece. >> good point. >> here's david cameron arriving in brussels, prime minister of the u.k. there is a disagreement about whether this disagreement now over greece is where the hard work actually gets done or whether this is the inevitable collapse and we turn to infighting. >> i think i keep come being back to last week we were talking about earnings. this is not a market where we came in at 4:30 this morning and everything was bad and we stay bad. we refolks on the perhaps there's upgrades coming. that is the theme of this year. >> in order for the market to proceed higher under this scenario, bifurcation, do we need the financials to continue its move? >> they mark time is good. we've had a gigantic run. last year we had too big a run and we got completely pancaked. i would love to see us cool off here. this has been an animal spirits rally that does not factor in any europe. i think some europe should be factored in but not like last year where i care about por

holding crisis talks and reports that austria could lose their aaa rating and italy, spain, and portugal could see their ratings drop by at least two for whichs. and, by the way, it could boomerang back to us and we could go down a notch as banks continue to face incredible pressures. j.p. is seeing profits plummet 23 percent last quarter and europe's problems being blamed and a lot of banks here exposed big time to what is going on over there including bank of america now warning things are getting so tough it is ready to retreat from u.s. markets. if the president is banking on a strong u.s. economy to win for more years economic forecaster says it is not looking too good. and to harry's credit, he did say a lot of this stuff would fall this year. harry it is coming into play here. what do you making of this? >>guest: well, i agree, europe, we have said this, young debt crisis will come back and keep coming back, temporary band-aids will not work. the bond markets pulled the plugs and germany is saying you have to have austerity for us to support you with bailouten like what the united

at the same time, concerns are rising that portugal will face similar problems as greece. belgium could sell easily 5-year and 10-year bonds at a lower interest-rate and slowly confidence is coming back. >> in frankfurt, we will have a closer look at monday's numbers. the dax fares 1% lower. the dow jones industrial fell by one 1.25%. across the atlantic on wall street, the dow has rebounded, and still not in positive territory, but looking much better. 0.5%. vero trading at the value of $1.25. the french government's has half -- has half its economic growth forecast -- halved its economic growth forecast. the revision means -- the announcement one day after president nicolas sarkozy announced plan to implement a controversial transactions tax. french debt was recently downgraded from aaa to aa +. italy held a successful bond auction on monday that brought a sigh of relief to rome. that just at over 6% of the lowest level since october. the option was seen as a key test of market confidence. this after italy's credit rating was slashed by two notches. >> let's go back. we

many believe the lights a portugal and spain and italy, are already in a recession. that does not bode well. we are also expecting inflation numbers. three%. the target is 2%. it is above that target. we are expecting it to drop slightly. still higher than the target. typically when you have higher inflation the role of the bank is to start raising interest rates to bring that inflation number down. everything we are starting to hear, the suggestions from the central bank, they will to the reverse and start cutting interest rates. on top of that, germany and portugal, and my blowing you away? they're going to the bond auction. a big test for germany because they want to raise 5 billion euros. for the 10-year bonds, remember in november, they did not receive enough when they held a similar auction. enough bids to raise the money they wanted. that highlighted the worry that the eurozone crisis was hitting the strongest economy in europe. all eyes are on that. i will bring that to you. >> did you take a breath? [laughter] thank you very much. france and paris are famous

in this world, the bears who have been so absent this year now have a cause celeb and it's portugal. yep, the bears can use that as a wedge to stop this bull market in its tracks or at least they think they do and they certainly try in the morning. what may fall down the 2011 rabbit hole? i think it's likely we do very little. i read the s&p oscillator, get it delivered every weekend, it was a plus 7, has been almost the entire year, and that's plagued us, because it says, look, the market has overbought, moved up too much, too quickly. nonetheless, aerospace where boeing is in full production. the autos, existing car population over 12 years old. housing stock is depleted and new homes aren't being built with alack writty, and unusable, dangerous, without services and as we saw in cleveland, subject to being demolished. under this scenario, what i see is an uneasy balance that can be tipped mainly by europe. witness honeywell ceo dave cody saying all bets are off if europe goes into severe recession. or positively impacted by chinese rate cuts and a continuation of the strengthening

. >> the country people want to watch, of course, is portugal. that combined with the fiscal path is likely to be discussed. >> european leaders are making progress. they feel step-by-step they are moving forward. there is less of a sense of immediate crisis of doom and gloom that accompanied the last crisis here. you mentioned portugal. there is also ireland to worry about. spain as well. the big problem is this. the model european unions hoped would work a couple years ago when the greek crisis reared its head would be coupled with the cutbacks they believed as we emerged from the 2007-2008 recession, they believed that would get us out of trouble. that growth is not coming back. so the question is, how to square the circle. the economies look as if they are drifting back to recession. >> thank you very much from brussels. >> a police station in the nige ran city of kano triggering a 20-minute gun battle with police. the number of casualties is unclear. >> a chemical, used to make car batteries, has been leaked into the ugan river. >> in the u.

traders said portugal could be the next greece, a candidate for default. see that in the prices being garnered for their bonds but a portuguese bonds fell so far the deal is reached record highs, highs measured since the introduction of the euro. people here but worries like that on the back burner. they were so glad that the united states that the central bank guaranteeing record low interest rates until 2014. some of that money will flow into equities, people here hope. >> let's get a closer look at the markets. we will check on that rally in frankfurt. the blue-chip dax closed higher on the day, nearly two percentage points higher. similar gains for the euro stoxx 50. trading still under way for the dow jones industrial average. it has reversed some earlier gains. currently about 0.3% lower. the euro is little changed against the dollar, $1.3102. iran is stepping up pressure on europe following the eu agreement to sanction to iran by banning oil supplies as of july 1. on sunday, the iranian parliament is scheduled to debate the possibility of cutting of

downgraded nine european countries including portugal but the russian markets were closed on friday when that announcement came out so what we're seeing right now is a delayed reaction but strong crude prices have helped prevent deep falls that we saw in other countries but we could see the numbers go into baghdad and that's because we had another announcement from the fiction ratings agency this time and changed its outlook on russia's credit rating from positive to stable and that's mainly due to political uncertainty and global concerns over growth the didn't change the actual writing level it's still at triple b. but we could see some jitters come out of that. ok thanks for that update so that was business the tease marina and now on to the actual numbers we start with europe where stock markets swing in and out of positive territory traders are mewling on the impact of waiting downgrades for nine eurozone nations and a weight of french debt sales and it's a chopper trade for the russian markets will be r.t.s. gaining over a half a percent and i'm isaacs has reversed a two positive a

two were in the iberian peninsula, portugal and spain. he had already invaded them -- portugal in 1807, spain in 1808. he had been fighting a guerrilla war in spain for all of those years. the english had an army there trying to fight him. it was led by the duke of wellington. but everybody figured once he got, once he got done with russia that no poll onhimself -- napoleon himself would come to spain, and he would win the war. his lieutenants had been fighting in spain and portugal prior to this time, and they might not have been doing so well, but when the master himself came, it looked like he would conquer there as well. and then you have the whole continent. and who was next after he did that? it was the british. all right. so madison thought that in view of this fact that the british would not want to at the same time be carrying on a war with the united states and, therefore, they'd be willing to negotiate with him about the things that were bothering he and the republican party which were the impressment of american seamen, the br
