does today's manufacturing report, purchasing managers, new s number staying at a high level.ase your confidence in this fairly positive outlook for gdp you have? mr. kaplan: so, i'd say it is consistent with my outlook, but there are a couple of significant downsides and there are meaningful upsides. on the downside, we are going to go through a difficult period in january and february with the resurgence of this virus. the bigger downside i am concerned about is do the new variants of the virus proved to be more resistant, less receptive to the vaccine? most scientists think the vaccines will be effective against those but the jury is out. and how quickly can we get the population vaccinated? for that forecast of 5% growth for this year to come to the fore, we need those downsides not to materialize. we need positive developments regarding the vaccine, the rollout of the vaccine and effectiveness against the variants. on the positive side, we have substantial fiscal stimulus. my forecast does not take into account additional stimulus. we do know mobility engagement will impr

you've also talked about purchasing manager's indexes and what we're seeing on the manufacturing fronts there something that you're watching that is the red flag that throws a wrench into your growth expectations over the near term that we need to focus on? >> well, covid is certainly at the top of anybody's risks right now. it looks encouraging but as we've seen over the past year, we can stumble. doesn't appear that we are, particularly with the j&j news yesterday, very encouraging. i worry about the geopolitical backdrop. i worry about tensions between the united states and china and this administration doesn't seem to be backing off too much on that so geopolitical for me and, again, there i just have to listen and watch what's going on around the world. and i do worry longer term about some of the potential, how much are regulatory -- regulations, excuse me, going to increase under this new administration. that could curtail business, that could curtail business confidence and throw a wrench into the labor market. so yeah, there is definitely a lot of worry out there. maria: all r

the fundamentals of the economy remains very strong as we saw in the purchasing managers index that you of them have done extremely well. others cut their costs increased their productivity. i think earnings outlook is pretty good. i don't see a recession resulting from all of this mayhem that we've seen recently in some of these gamestoper stocks. but i think you know, sort of overdue for a bit of a correction. i don't know that we'll have a complete 10% correction here. maybe not, because i think there is still an enormous amount of liquidity. i think one of the reasons that we've seen the volatility in these, some of these stocks is because people have gotten checks, not all of them are spending them at the stores. some are spending them in the stock market. stuart: our guests on the show so far this morning have said almost, unanimously, that this is winding down but it is definitely not over. what say you? >> right. well, i think it's, you know, it's definitely being driven by social media and you know, one of the consequences of social media is the notion of flashmobs. you get on

doubt that this has been an old goal by the european commission, that they have not managed to execute this common purchasevaccines in the speed at which they should. i would say that the root cause of this issue is that the commission doesn't have the capacity to take large financial risks in the way that individual countries like the u.s., the u.k., and others did early in the pandemic. the commission couldn't do it. they have asked member states for more money, but they were told in the late summer that you have to stick within your existing budget, and here we are. so it is what it is. it is not a great day for europe, but i would also say that if you stick to the best practices announced by some eu member states that are still targeting the 100% vaccination rate of all people over 16 by the end of june, early july, i think you could say that at the end of the day, europe still managed to deliver, but it is far from obvious that such an ambitious timetable will be adhered to by all e.u. membership's. but this will not be the commission's for the eu's fault, per se. guy: does the eu have a structural we
