seema: that's a great question.hink from a long-term perspective, it's more of a question of where did they fit in with this geopolitical atmosphere? are they going to side with china? are they going to side with the u.s.? and where is it -- where they are going to keep the emphasis going forward. it's going to a point where they can get back on their feet. if they can, the amount of value in europe means europe could do very, very well. but as long as it gets reopening as quickly as possible. francine: again with the win with a wonderful chart. if we have that chart up for you -- you can always look at them, by the way. go on bloomberg terminal if you are a bloomberg customer. that's the number i have for this one. we're all glued to euro, whether euro-dollar or the euro index or even eurosterling. is there a worry with euro the ecb struggles to put a cap on euro level? seema: yeah, traditionally we've seen whenever it starts to get stronger, the ecb makes interventions, a few uncomfortable noises, enough to prompt

seema mody is back with more on that big trade and story seema. >> dom, typically this week hotels wouldwashington, d.c. in fact, hotel occupancy during past inaugurations for president trump and president obama was at around 97% this year it will be very different with the virginia governor and d.c. mayor urging americans not to travel to the capitol due to the risk of violence companies have issued different responses. airbnb blocking all reservations around d.c. around the event this week. verbo is not blocking reservations but requiring those booking a property in and around d.c. and the capitol to reconfirm their identity with government issued i.d.s so they can with vetted. hotel operators remain open but the big operators tell cnbc they have updated security measures at their properties, despite attempts, though, to discourage travel, travel site hopper says it saw a 32% increase to flight searches to d.c. last friday compared to the previous week. the u.s. house oversight committee sent a letter to the biggest companies in travel including marriott, expedia, car rental companies,

you hear seema's report there.uld not see travel return for certain parts of the country to normal levels, quote unquote normal levels in three to four years. airlines, why do they keep going higher >> for one reason, airlines, they can direct their capacity where they need to, where the demand is higher, so that is encouraging. and what we have seen is like the demand environment is challenging but it is getting better, you know, every week the trend has slowed since what we saw back in october with new restrictions but generally we're heading in the right direction, and as the vaccines, you know, getting out to the population, and we start to see some of these restrictions come down, you can see things improve quite a bit as you head into the end of this year so i think this is a lot of hope and expectation for light at the end of the tunnel. >> that's the reason why, the light at the end of the tunnel argument is why we have seen it, and it's justified these airline stocks go higher is there a separation happeni

my guess today doctor seema yasmin is thought a lot about that question. doctor yasmin is a physician primary care publishing health at stanford university for she previously served in the epidemic intelligence service at the cdc, investigating infectious disease outbreaks. but her brilliance does not stop there. doctor yasmin is also an emmy award-winning journalist's recent work focuses on the spread of medical misinformation. her new book is called viral bs, medical myths and why we fall for them. today we will talk about how coronavirus misinformation flows, the dangers it poses and what the incoming administration can do about it. we'll reserve the last part of our time with doctor yasmin for your questions but if you're following facebook, twitter, youtube just dropped questions in the comment field and i will ask them. doctor seema yasmin welcome. to act thank you for having me how you doing? >> i am good. i mean all things considered. so i am really curious, what was your reaction to the actions of last week continuing in today? should be to ahtro

seema mody with more on that story. >> yes, that is right. americans planning trips overseas have to ensure they can get access to the covid test to avoid delays on the return. united airlines said that the cdc ruling has resulted in the increase in cancellations to mexico and the caribbean, and two destinations that have seen a nice jump in bookings since last fall, and the hotels and the resorts are trying to work out a solution with a number of marriott and hilton properties offering on-site ant igen and pr testing and hyatt is covering the cost of all of the tests to keep americans covering down south, and one is hiring professionals to give the test out, and st. lucia is providing training to ensure that more hotels have more resources. >> we have testing now available at our hotels. we are the medical staff at the hotel have been trained to take the swabs. and in private villas, and smaller properties, we do have physicians that are going to be going to the properties to take the swabs. and we are able to respond within the 72 hours. >>

the world so the slice of life that we focus on for this person in particular was you know through seema and through her clients see much semen from them by our matchmaker and through her clients and i wanted to really examine the aspects of you know i think a range of measures a very triggering term and i think if you watch the show you'll see that we the way we use that word is the looser stuff edition you know the instances where you know i mean people have completely agency the people who find you know the life partners on their own on the show and there are people who go through a more traditional arranged marriage you know route a somewhat more traditional arranged marriage route so there's a wide spectrum i think of what we were trying to show and also you know just show that that the way the tension between our traditions and our modern so you know it's i think we're very much in that you know in that transitional phase right now particularly with this generation so for me it's interesting as a filmmaker it's interesting just to examine that dynamic through the lens of something

the third highest serve, anytime we've seen a shorter -- it's been a pretty strong risk, you know, seemaculation. there's a lot of reasons why we should be heeding this warning and at least tactively raising some cash and tactically rotating the portfolios to be more cautious in the near term. >> is there a way to play this if volatility is on rise do you buy any high-speed trading platform that did pretty well when volatility was on the rise last year >> absolutely. volatility equals volume volume will increase, which might get market makers, brokers, i've contributed my share of profits to them for sure, i think they'll all do very, very well. i tuckedly agree with greg, that the investment x is an important signal, when you look at the surrounding data, today was the first time i've seen bond yields up, equity prices down. that's a signal the market is getting concerned about credit risk certainly we may be setting up ourselves for at least a 5% correction, maybe even more, especially when we go into february, which seems to be a sell-off time in the market. >>> buckle up. for more ch

seema yasmin, welcome. >> thank you for having me, era. how've doing. >> i'm good, all things considered. >> right. >> i'm really curious what was your reaction to the events of last week and continuing into today? >> shock but not surprised because it was like what did people think what going to hey? given the rhetoric from -- you can say last year, about the stop the steal and the encouragement again to people but tee legitimizing results. you can stay it has been hundreds of years leading up to this, and so many signs from people, especially black people, indigenous people, people of color and those messages that communication, that scholarly work, that work happening in communities, it wasn't heeded by many people and that's why i say shock because it's horrible, people died and if we learn more information about what happened the capitol, and allegations of some representatives doing like reconnaissance tours for people and perhaps some -- i think iana pressley no panic button in her woman anymore but many -- in her room anymore. >> m

>> i think it's a fantastic plan, seema.f the work from home movement even before it happened and as they're continuing to innovate and expand and move into the webinar arena and telecommunications, i think there is a lot of potential for growth here and i think that the general public isn't really aware of that at this point. so, i think because the fact that the stock has pulled back so significantly from the highs it will give us a great entry point for some long-term growth. >> craig, you're the technician here what do the charts tell you? can it reclaim its all-time high of $5.68 a share >> i don't think so at this point in time. i have to take the opposite side of the trade i looked at the stock and you broke up the support line in tact and momentum and a break below 337 is going to start a whole other leg lower. i don't think this is going to be a big winner here in 2021 there is a lot of competition out here for video conferencing. zoom is great, but, again, what is really unique versus microsoft team products and ot

seema yasmine, doctor, so good to see you. >> you too, fred. >> so president biden's surgeon general says the new administration will strive to give state and local governments cle clearer advisement on how to handle the virus. do you think that will make a difference? >> i do, fredricka. that's been lacking last year. in some way states are told you have all the autonomy in the world which can be really useful for states because they know what works in the local level but they were left without the right support, the right resources so that when things went wrong the previous administration could just say it's your governor's fault, blame the local level. having this kind of national cohesive strategy that we're being told will roll out is going to make a world of difference, i think, in gives the states and counties the right resources that they need to care for their citizens, to make sure that testing, ppe, vaccine distribution, all of that stuff happens in the right way at the right pace. and of course we're just seeing already that as the transition has actually happened now, t

i'm seema modi from cnbc business news. stocks set to open higher ahead of biden's inauguration tomorrow and a flood of earnings report that wall street will be keeping a close eye on. the markets did suffer its worst week last week since october, where the dow fell 1%. the s&p 500 and nasdaq down about 1.5%. traders say this week they'll be focused on the inauguration to see if things flow smoothly and also to see if republicans in the senate will approve biden's agenda. earnings in focus today, it will be goldman sachs, bank of america and netflix. >>> janet yellen, president-elect biden's treasury nominee for treasury secretary. in her prepared remarks the former head of the federal reserve is calling on congress to do more to fight a recession brought on by the pan emic. yellen says the threat of an even worse downturn is too great to reduce her support now and the smartest thing we can do now is to act big. last week biden unveiled a $1.9 trillion economic relief pan. >>> pizza hut is trying a new way to make drone del

live with their husbands family after marriage and from her perspective and from the perspective of seema and some other people but easiest path you know to transitioning from your mother's house to your father from your father's house to your father or mother out was to have that father in law's house be a similar to the father's house as possible so that was them that was sort of a framework you know which through which people were evaluating there was obviously superstition involved too and i know the underlying implicit in all of this are some very problematic things that. you know maintaining you know past you know. things community bloodlines things like that but i think on the surface i was people were thinking especially if you have daughters you're thinking you want that a daughter to feel as at home in her new home as possible so if you were raised by japan and you know you maybe it would be difficult for you to adjust in a meeting household if you were raised right to know a certain religion on a certain background that would be difficult to adjust that change in my generation
