eventual collapse of the system talking about sterling as a political figure i guess people in the west mostly know him as a man who lacked pressure to win the second world war i see here for us at home there is no doubt that we won the war without russia second world war would not have been won are their thoughts in the west about that and how is there a genuine interest actually in the west to really find out about the role of russia and how it really wrecked the war today while there are people in the west who would want to do more to russia the soviet union's role in winning the second world war well because it's uncomfortable true for them to face up to this whole for a terrier socialist communist regime under this dictator stalin was responsible for tito to defeat a few of our men and in fact was responsible for as opposed to nazis well the the the those kind of people also tend to have the view that there was no great difference between naziism and commons and when that started in that we're just as

in the collapse and also the mentality you know that sterling sort of try to establish and said that you needed the mentality that he left after his death was also to blame for the collapse at the end of the day you know well it depends what kind of mentality you're talking about you know stalin was a communist he believed in socialism he believed in a communist utopia he believed in the soviet system he believed that the soviet union was a model for the whole the whole world know one doesn't have to agree with his beliefs for that reason but one has to recognize the power of deprivation and the power of everything was very very important in the historical development of the sort you before starting with a life and then subsequently because what happens is gold which of comes along and he questions and challenges that traditional soviet self image and attempts to reform the system inquire radical way and the result of course is the. the eventual collapse of the system talking about sterling as a political figure i guess people in the west mostly know him nice the man who let fresh ai

sterling? you're recognized for five minutes. >> members of the two subcommittees, thank you for the opportunity to appear before you once again. as noted, the nation's real tax system is difrn from the tax system just by looking at direct statutory rates such as the income tax and the social security tax and phasing out various benefits in the expenditure and tax programs and i tend to call expenditure taxes, because like tax expenditures they remain largely hidden from the government and they're influenced on behavior. these expenditures, i want to be clear, are a classic, liberal conservative compromise and mr. chairman, you commented earlier about needing to work together to solve this problem and one reason that they have to work together is because it is a liberal, conservative compromise that got us there in the sense that they favored these implicit taxes as a way of increasing progressivity and they have non-budget revenues, both of which are legitimate goals which have resulted in ver

for being with us today thank you so here in russia there are two dimensionally different takes on sterling some say he was a great guy who won the second world war and he actually gave the country an immense post another state actually he undermined the economy which led to the eventual collapse of the u.s.s.r. what's your take on that when stalin dawoud winston churchill is reported to have said that stalin found russia with a wooden well and he left it with atomic bombs and i think that statement sums up stalin's achievement was to modernize the soviet union to urbanize a so you need to dust your license so that you can to build the foundations of a country that was able to withstand the german invasion in one thousand nine hundred eleven go on twitter picture of fascism and also the foundation for the post-war rise of the soviet you to a nuclear superpower you know if russia is still a great country. with an important role to play in the world and enormous potential for the future it's because the foundations that were laid during start of time now having said that of course there could

sterling -- euro/sterling, 0.8043. the dollar/yen, 79. the aussie/dollar 1.02.ollowing friday's agreement, angela america cell coming under pressure. she's set to meet with italy's prime minister mario monti this afternoon. we have andre cabrini. patricia is in germany. we've got both sides of this. andrea, what are we expecting from mario monti today? >> well, everything is set for the meeting that will start early this afternoon. basically, the message coming from rome this morning is this is not the second run of the european council. there will be no winners and losers. and mario monti said that the headlines of the meeting in europe should have been angela plus mario equals a new european policy based on growth but also on budgetary discipline. so clearly the veto, the italian veto on the grove pack edge in brussels clearly disturbed angela merkel. at the same time the sources in rome are expecting the italian government to get more measures to angela merkel and his colleagues in rome of the italian efforts to get more discipline in its public spending. for

let's kick off with sterling and the bank of england and where sterling is headed from here. >> all eyes will be on thursday. the market is looking for 50 billion additional asset purchases. our own goal is 75. we also expect potentially more details on the bank's new program for supporting the so-called lending channel in the economy. governor king hinted at the measures at his speech not so long ago. ahead of the daily meeting, i suspect sterling to underperform other risk correlated currencies. we think sterling against new zealand dollar could provide interest in short positions there. the thinking really being that as global central banks provide additional accommodation, the so-called -- likely to outperform given their relatively superior fundamentals, but also the fact that the investors are looking for alternatives from the majors. >> valentine, to what extent do you expect easing moves this week and is that one reason to expect the euro to trade lower among many others, but expect the euro to trade a little bit lower going forward? >> i think 25 basis point cuts by the ecb is w

euro a little stronger against sterling. we should mention earlier in the trading session, sterling, the british currency, appreciated to a 3 1/2 year high against euro. whether that will provide any lift to the euro bloc as brits take their holiday and take advantage of the weaker currency remains to be seen. want to mention because you were just discussing libor, the next to appear before the treasury select committee hearing here in britain, the fourth involved so far. of course, the former chief operating officer at barclays. of course, libor, while you know you're trying to poo-poo is extremely important to corporate loans, not to mention they have a trillion dollar market in interest rate swaps. back to you. >> thank you so much, kelly. she was talking about what they're doing in spain. what are they doing if spain? raising taxes and cutting spending. paul krugman is on later and i know he hates what they're doing in europe. perfect day to talk to him. >> he will have lots of views of what's going on. when is enough is

euro sterling still below the 18 mark. .7842. let's bring it up to speed what happened in the asia trading day. tracey is with us in singapore. good morning, tracey. >> good morning. asian markets widely gained today on the upbeat u.s. economic data. hong kong shares rose more than 1.6% after better than expected u.s. housing numbers and corporate profits led to strong gains. markets climbed as the shanghai come possible set added .7%. volume was very heavy too as a matter of fact the highest for the shanghai board since the end of may. tokyo stocks are about .8% higher helped by strong gains by wall street overnight. tech stocks outperformed. volume still thin. south korea, more than 1.5% led by gains in tech, autos and ship builders. electronics climbed 4%. elsewhere in the australian market touched a two month high after investors grew more confident about the global economy and india sensex tracking gains higher about .6% despite a big hit to its largest carmaker over worker unrest. >>> angela merkel is expected to secure a m

dollar up, and sterling/euro, 0.7897, sterling continuing round of strengthening against euro.ecord levels on that front, too. let's talk about bond markets, so much attention on europe. very low yields for euro bund. in spain, where we're looking at yields over 7%, coming a little lower, still not a pretty picture for the spanish yields but 6.77%, which does represent a continual decline in those yields just in the past day or so. partly because of what mario rajoy has been saying in his speech. tax cuts and changes to the spending patterns for that country. in italy, below 6%, 5.91%, so italian yield moving in the same direction. and we have had comments coming out that italy may need to tap bailout funds from europe as well. and the ten-year gilt in uk, 1.57%. let's get a view of what's going on across asia. this is how the equity picture is shaping up. a bit of a mixed picture. declines in india. declines for south korean market, japan as well. we do have gains for shanghai composite of just around 0.5%. let's check in with tracey chanchang for the latest. >> mixed day in t

. >> let's just look at sterling. had a little bit of data here in the uk which is pushing sterling higher, rising to a session high in the past few moments over 155.30. gilt slipping too after uk manufacturing data came in stronger than expected. seeing that spike coming through. at the moment the data hit about two minutes or so ago. the uk may industrial output figures up for the month of may. unexpectedly strong. seems to be something to do with the extra working day due to the postponed public holiday. we have a jubilee weekend. we postponed it to a week later than usual. also downward revision to previous industrial output in manufacturing numbers too. so the uk is in recession but in may manufacturing output rose by 1.2% after that .8% drop for the month of april. >>> we will now check in with silvia wadhwa, germany's senior judges will decide where they can govern esm. several officials are seeking a temporary inyungs to prevent the legislation from passing. silvia wadhwa joins us from germany. what can we exp

sterling/dollar pretty steady. that's where we stand right now. what about what's happening in asia. tracey joins us in singapore. >> reporter: investors over here have chose to brush aside those dismal economic data out of the u.s. asia rose across the board in anticipating of that bernanke's testimony later tuesday. in china the shanghai composite rebounded from three year lows. remember china's cabinet hold it's mid-year economic conference as early as tomorrow and analysts are expecting pro growth measures to be announced. major financials were at the forefront of the strong performance with china's big four state-owned banks gaining 1.5% or more. japan's nikkei closed out .4% on its first trading day of the week. investors were encouraged after china's finance minister targeted speculators after the yen hit a one monday high against the dollar. and over in seoul stocks reversed earlier losses, edged higher. oil refiners rose as bargain hunters jumped in on one of the worst sectors this year. the awe australian market up 1% as well extending g

so look at euro/sterling pushing lower. i think increased speculation about the uk base rate. very positive yields in australia, poland, for example. so this will be an enduring theme over the summer, how the world deals with negative interest rates. >> paul, just curious whether we're seeing a longer-term shift happening here. there are reports that reserve managers are looking to commodity currencies and getting away from the euro altogether. in your experience, is that maybe one reason why we've seen these pairs with the strength with the australia and the new zealand dollar even against the euro? >> we've seen sort of flows away. we have a reserve management study that we published at the end of the year. a majority of reserve managers in that survey were looking at nontraditional currencies. and those seem to be some of the smaller european currencies. but importantly, as you mentioned, the aussie. other central banks have been quite vocal about their desire to move away from the traditional reserve currencies to smaller nontraditional. and i think that that must be ongoi

>>eric: bill clinton said, forget romney's bain service, it was sterling, a sterling businessman. and there was the comment where he said, you don't want to raise taxes at times like this in the midst of president obama class warfare agenda. why bill clinton? why bill clinton now? they are miles apart. >>guest: it shows that obama thinks he has a problem with swing voters and independents and moderates. why become friends with someone who is in the your ally? and invite them to speak. if you look, bill clinton is actually more popular than obama. he, 66 percent of americans view him favorably and he has wide support among independents and moderates. obama is trying to tap into that and he swallowed his pride. >>eric: i am in the sure it is accurate, what i read, but they will show football rather than the speeches; that right? >>guest: i am actually not sure. i have not heard about that. >>eric: if that were the case, if i were president clinton i would say, wait, you wanted me to speak to you but the football game will be on, is that right? dallas and giants will be airing instea

sterling and rockville and fairfax are at 72. we're sitting at 76. looking outside on our michael & son weather camera, you see the droplets on the lens cover there with 76. cloudy skies at national on the hour but humidity way up at 91%. it is a muggy morning with a light south, southwesterly wind at 6 miles an hour. nationally some very high heat once again. terrible drought conditions being exacerbated by temperatures in the low 100s from st. louis back to kansas city. chicago 99. oklahoma city 100. we'll be flirting with that heat. that's not a good thing to flirt with on and off for much of the week. so there's the high pressure with the heat right in the middle of the country. showers and storms right up and over it. and under it also scattered about in the south and in florida, it's the early morning. we've lost the daytime heating so things are quieter there. you throw in the daytime heating, we will see more showers and storms pop. for us, well, we're expecting some of that this afternoon. we should be pretty good through lunch time. watch w
