Worldwide exchange. Im wilfred frost. And im sara eisen. For meetings on the imf, all the financers and Top Economists are here ill tell you what some of my takeaways are in a moment, but first well bring you breaking news out of the nations capitol. The Trump Administration says it will stop making critically important payments to Health Insurers who sell obamacare plans. Those payments were projected to 10 billion next year. Nbcs tracie potts is here in washington with more does this come as a surprise, tracie reporter it doesnt come as a surprise i can tell you that because we have been investigating what the prices will be for the premiums next year. And already 20 and 30 increases in some areas because the Insurance Companies were expecting this was coming. President trump has said repeatedly he thinks that its too much money and that this is not something that the government should be paying so those costsharing reductions is what they call them, many people refer to them as extra subsidies, are payments made directly from the government to these Insurance Companies to compensate them for discounted plans that they are required to make to lowincome families under obamacare. So if theyre not getting the compensation from the government, they are raising the prices to the families who can least afford to pay them and that is going to be the impact here. The Congressional Budget Office took a look at this a few months ago at what the impact would be, premium increases 20 to 25 and as i said, were already seeing this as many of the companies had anticipated this they also think that the number of uninsured officially will go up we are already getting reaction from capitol hill from republicans who say this is the way it should have been in the first place because congress has to authorize the payments. And Congress Never did on the other hand, you can imagine, democrats are calling this spiteful this morning pointless sabotage that will affect working families. Well likely hear more about it today and see more of h the republicans are acting and reacting because i would think this move by the Trump Administration in the face of several failed Health Care Votes from republicans to start to dismantle obamacare on his own exactly they are trying to take it apart piece by piece by taking out critical parts of obamacare. Remember, obamacare, the Affordable Care act, was always about balance. And balancing the costs of health care. So if Insurance Companies have to cover more people, then they wanted more healthier people in the system to balance the cost of that. If they had to offer plans to more lowincome families, working families, the government was helping to balance that with the payments now going away. Tracie potts, thank you very much for that late evening news from washington. No real move in the Health Insurers premarket. Obviously, we arekeeping an ey on them today. To tracies point, this was expected but unclear how they will react raise premiums or give them an excuse to pull out of the aca. Well have more on the breaking news later in the show in the meantime, well check in on the Global Markets and the futures yesterday down 0. 2 that means we are essentially flat coming into the final session of the week. The dow up about 0. 3 . The nasdaq and the s p slightly positive this morning. Were expecting to open higher 22 points or so for the dow, the s p half a point, the nasdaq, 4 points the tenyear treasury note for you is seeing yields slip back a little bit we are at 2. 33 this morning. As for the overnight action in asia, japan had a strong week, certainly. The stock market is trading at multiyear highs and the strength continued overnight look at japan with a 1 move hong kong flat, shanghai comp closing positive with better export numbers out of china, south korea ends lower as for early action in europe, it is the bond market were watching this morning where you are seeing the moves buying bonds and pushing yields lower theres a report that the ecb is going to trim its asset purchases but extend them for an extra nine months, which is having an impact in the bond market the dax is unchanged seeing action in the ftse 100 down a third of a percent. Well keep an eye on it. And spain, wilford, a lot of talk in spain at the imf meetings we have an interview with the eu Vice President about how brussels should proceed delicately with this situation they have obviously stayed out of it. Its a spanish issue, but it does speak to some unrest in populism that continues to bubble up. We are watching flashes in the last 15 minutes or so on the topic, that im sure you will discuss. Lets look at the broader markets, the oil prices were down a little bit yesterday. But, sorry, we were down yesterday a percent or so, but up nicely for the week and adding to the weeks gains today up 2 for the week before this move. So were looking at 3. 5 of gains for the week as a whole now with that 1. 4 gain. 51. 3 for wti the board is seeing a little bit of weakness today. It was up slightly yesterday, down for the week, and you can see the euro flat, but the dollar softer against the yen. And the pound up about 0. 3 . It was down sharply lunchtime yesterday. It was up by the end of yesterdays session. All the headlines coming out of the eu as to whether negotiations are going well or not. But lots of backandforth over the last 24 hours on that in terms of headlines and in terms of the pound as well gold prices for you up a little bit yesterday. They are up about 1. 7 for the week and they are flat today at 1295. Bitcone crossed 5,000. Today, it is at 5,600. So continuing to move higher crossing 5,200, thats unbelievable despite the doubters and skeptics. Sticking w the fed will raise Interest Rates in december im not sure anybody is comfortable with the Federal Reserve members talking about the markets being fully valued, though he did hint it had to do with what they were looking at when it comes to Monetary Policy, the better overall environment, thats a big theme here today that i was going to mention to you the shift that Central Banks have to make towards normalization. Do they do it all together at the meetings, it is about coordination of the economic and Monetary Policy . Or do they go with their own speeds in the uk and scenarios on inflamed growth there nobody wants to ruin what weve got now, which is a global coordinated economic expansion its fragile and the central bankers are figuring out how to adjust policy accordingly and whether they should work together. Yeap, i think we have all ankers dont look justdecade at what the stated mandate is, whether it is inflation or plus employment, they definitely consider wider factors but inflation does remain the key hurd the rest to see if they can stop to reduce that policy. As for todays wall street agenda, well get inflation data, a couple economic reports, september retail sales and cpi are out at 8 30 eastern followed by october Consumer Sentiment and the august numbers will come out at 10. And sara will sit down with Stanley Fischer, his exit interview as he leaves this weekend. And well hear from bank of englands governor mark carney hell sit down with Steve Liesman at 1 20 p. M. Eastern time a lot of insight, that was a very odd picture of mr. Carney we should change that. And bank of america, wells fargo and pnc report before the open and yesterday, sara, that cit ireport, in particular, saw citi shares down 3 the likes of bank of america was down 1. 5 . Well see if bank of americas report and wells fargo can allow them to bounce back a bit from yesterdays declines anything special youre looking for within wells fargo after the contentious hearings not really in the numbers, to be honest. Well listen to the schools about that, but the interesting thing from the earnings yesterday was the focus on cards and consumer loans thats what derailed the citi share price. And it was only a small issue there, it wasnt like a big provision and it wasnt like and huge fall in terms of the pricing they are getting on the cards, but it came pretty soon after that july of yesterday where they come and significantly upgrade the outlook and the forwardlooking statements so the fact that the disappointment came so soon after that hurt the share price. But it is at 1. 4 in the market. It was down 3. 4 yesterday. Well watch the bank earning, b of a and wells fargoth well continue to watch the devastating wildfires in northern california. Authorities say the death toll has risen to at least 31 roughly 400 people are still missing. There are currently 21 blazes raging simultaneously across the region bit of good news, though, officials do say they are starting to get a better handle on the fires as conditions there are expected to improve. But well keep a close eye on it for you. Just devastating pictures.

We lost. 20 yesterday, so slight slippage but we are still in positiver the toy the dow is the leader up. 30 as a whole. We are up 25 points or so in the premarket for the dow the oil prices slipped a percent yesterday, but on the whole its been a good week for oil up 2 to 2. 5 coming into the final session. Adding to that today by 1. 6 for wti. Nicely above 50. 51. 4 to be precise sara Global Economic optimism is the theme of the Imf World Bank meetings, but there are points of tension like catalonia, brexit, protectionism rising around the world we have the Vice President of the European Commission overseeing Financial Stability services and the market union. Good morning good morning. Everyone here is talking about the coordinated expansion, and a lot of people are pointing to europe as one of the brighter spots in terms of the Economic Outlook outlook. Do you see this staying . Economics are about 2 as it was for eu as a whole. And we see a broadbased economy growth, so all 28 Member States including greece are about Economic Growth. And where do you put credit is it in the monetary authorities in the ecb for what they have done well, we are following three Economic Policy priorities first is the facilitate investment which each economy needs. Second is structure reforms to strengthen the competitors of the economies. And third is fiscally responsible policies of course, those measures are flanked by the Monetary Policy of the European Central bank, which has been involved in quantitative easing. But the political questions are still front and center and catalonia this week is at the top of the agenda. The president of the eu is making headlines hoping that catalonia stays in spain he cant mediate the situation when only one side is asking for help does brussels have any role to play here . Well, we see this as a situation that needs to be dealt in spain itself in line with the constitutional provisions of spain. And we hope that all sides will be able so find a solution within the constitutional framework and via negotiations. Do you see this as a problem for brussels and the eu as a whole that you have pockets of populism, the states that are trying to rise up in independence as a repudiation of the european project in this case, to reiterate, this is an issue primarily to be dealt with in spain. So we do not see it so much as a question of we saw it in scotland, there are other moves toward independence. Well, the referendum was very clear to stay within the uk. In regards to brexit, indeed, we are now negotiating with the uk in terms of the uks withdrawal from the eu. And those negotiations are still ongoing. How is that going it feels like we are at an impasse, and the market has been very sensitive to this idea. Yesterday it looked like there was no deal. Today there are rumors theres going to be a transitional deal. Give us the latest. First of all, on the structure, we are concentrating first on the three sets of issues the citizens rights, so eu citizens in the eu and uk citizens in the eu on financial settlement where we expect the uk to meet its obligations and commitment it has made as an eu state. And on the issue concerning the irish border once we have substantial progress in these three areas, we move to the new part of the negotiation. And in the original schedule in october, we should be reporting to the European Eu Council so eu Member States. And yes, indeed, we wont be able to report sufficient progress in those three areas. So is no deal an option we are certainly working towards a deal and there is some progress theres not sufficient progress, but there is still time to negotiate. So its important. If theres political will from both sides, we certainly can reach a deal. Not sure about that, but thank you very much for the update on several of those marketmoving factors. It is always nice to see you here in washington the Vice President of the European Commission. Wilfred . Still to come, a big deadline for uber.

Its decision day for uber they have until the end of the day to repeal londons decision not to renew their license we are live in london with the latest on this story argen . Reporter yes, uber will try to appeal the decision later on today. The uk did not renew the operating license. As this goes on in the coming months, uber will still be able to operate in the uk capital this appeal is likely to be dragged on the london mayor sadiq kahn said they will defend themselves in court, so hes ready for a fight here the risk is that it damages london reputation as a place for innovation, but the risk for uber is much larger. They may have to change their business they may have to make concessions on this. And we have to wait and see how that pans out. But there is one more massive issue here facing uber in the uk, and that is around the way that it classifies its driver. They are currently going through the appeals process to see whether the drivers are classed as employees in which case they have to have holiday leave and the extra benefits that full employees are entitled to. Or they are classed as selfemployed and can continue to operate how they are. Either of the issues, the flf, all the tribunal impact will have a huge impact on the way uber operates and boost the operational costs here in london arjun, what is the market share, do we think, of uber in london in terms of within other ridesharing apps, i would think it is very high indeed, but also versus the classic london black cab, which is still fairly prominent . Reporter yeah. I mean, uber has a huge marketshare here no definitive stats on that, but it claims to have 40,000 drivers in the uk capital as well as 3. 5 million users. So its no Small Company its doing a huge amount of business here in the uk. So it is clearly a very important market any damage here to its business could have ramifications for the global business, too and just one final point, clearly, they didnt get banned outright the data decision was made there to continue to allow it to operate until the current license expires. They have to launch their appeal by today how long can they continue operating for once they launch the appeal until the final decision of the appeal is made reporter yeah, so they can continue operating and operating until tfl comes out with the final judgment on all of this. And the courts come out with their final judgment in this so they can continue operation for the next few months. Many i view is that i reckon they try to make a few deals and cut sections of the market where they have run into trouble well see how that pans out over the next few months. Thank you so much for, arjun, from london. And the Trump Administration pulling the plug on key obamacare subsidies. Well have the latest Market Reaction, Business Impact and, of course, the impact on consumers when Worldwide Exchange comes back breaking news, the white house is ending key obamacare subsidies to Health Insurers the impact straight ahead. And markets are capping off with Bank Earnings that you need to be watching and hollywood icon jane fonda weighs in on the Harvey Weinstein scandal. Well tell you what she said to cnbc this morning. It is friday, october 13, 2017 youre watching Worldwide Exchange on cnbc. Good morning a very warm welcome to Worldwide Exchange here on cnbc im wilfred frost. Im sara ic eisen in washingn today for the imf meetings and world bank. First well check in on what the markets are doing. We had a slight slippage today, but we are expected to bounce back a little. The dow is up 25 points. Week to date, we are up slightly, 0. 3 the nasdaq and s p are up. 10 slippage over the last week or weekandahalf. We are down to 2. 32 on the tenyear yield as for asian markets overnight, another strong session for japan. The nikkei closing higher by a percent. Japans stock market is at the highest level now since 1996 its being fueled in part by the weaker japanese yen, which the exporters are loving we are mixing a soft picture over there the german dax barely higher one move coming in the uk. The ftse 100 is down a third of a percent. The pound is higher on spe speculation of a transition deal moving back and forth as you know on brexit talks yesterday the impasse, today maybe a transition, twoyear extraplus deal to keep britten in the Common Market if it can pay up and agree to some of the preliminary divorce settlements. Some conflicting reports over the last 24 hours as a positive report in the uks perspective from a german newspaper. The teaser yesterday was less positive, but the pound is reacting in the last 24 hours. We just talked to the eu vp about it, and he my takeaway from him was we are not on track. Theres not enough to report by the october deadline as we said we would as far as the brexit talks. Thats not a big shock, but now they admit it. No, i would say that is everyones takeaway from most of the last couple of weeks or months but the reason the dow got a pop yesterday was to have a slightly different story for once, a positive one on the uks perspective, that the transition could be confirmed well have to wait and see the pound is up, this comes at a moment but first, oil prices themselves slipped a little bit yesterday but this has been a positive week up 2. 6 we are at 51. 41 for wti crude. And yesterday at 2 00 p. M. , 3 00 p. M. , it gained significantly and bounced back slightly positive for the day it is up to 1. 33 for the pound over the dollar. And the euro prices are at 1. 7 today and flat at 1. 296. Bitcoin powered through 5,000 yesterday. Now it sits at 5,600 there we go. If only my exboyfriend listened to me to buy a dollar several years ago. Good thing you told me. Then maybe i would have done it. I didnt know you then. A year ago, you said. No, years ago bitcoin was 1 thats when i first started paying attention a lifetime ago yes. Big news out of washington and the white house overnight. The Trump Administration says it will stop making those criticallyimportant payments to Health Insurers who sell obamacare plans. Our aman jabbers is joining us in person. Good morning, sara. We wonder about the impact and reaction. This is a big decision by the Trump Administration not certainly surprising because the republicans argued that the csr payments were done unlawfully under the Obama Administration they said paying Insurance Companies to subsidize insurance for lowincome people was not ultimately constitutional. So what thepresident has done is decided to scrap the plans. Democrats say it could raise prices for lowincome people the csr payments now reimburse insurers for discounts in Health Care Costs offered to low and middleincome citizens they were projected to receive 10 billion in subsidies in 2018 and the cbo estimates premiums would increase by about 200 billion. This comes after the Trump Administration yesterday, the president signed the executive order, designed to allow more tailored and narrowed Insurance Programs access to that for certain people in the country. Both of those decisions sort of undermining key features of obamacare here democrats very worried this could send premiums skyrocketing and ultimately this could lead to the unraveling of obamacare the president very much hastening that heres the tweet from Chuck Schumer saying sadly instead of lowering the health costs for americans, it seems the president will single handedly hike Americans Health premiums. This will have a combined effect of undermining obamacare, putting this system in a more precarious position overall. So critics would say hes sabotaging president obamas signature legislation. Absolutely, yeah. Is he nudging the republicans . Is this something rand paul would approve of this is a president who is very frustrated he hasnt been able to get legislation to repeal and replace they expressed at the white house bewilderment at the idea that republicans campaigned under repealing and replacing for seven years. And then with the opportunity in january with the president and controlling both houses of congress, wasnt able to do anything about it. Now they say they want to take every step they can to reform the program. And live within the con up strants th constraints they have. That could destabilize obamacare. Congress may have to do something. They expect to come back in january and february of 2018 and try again. This could raise the level of urgency to do something next year as millions of americans start to lose insurance or pay skyhigh premiums. Wilfred in. Where are we now in terms of the total of executive orders relative to past experience in the first year of the presidency i dont have a grand total, but youre right to single it out. Because the republicans under obama had said that executive orders were sort of executive overreach. The president was governing by the power of the pen, not going through congress of course, obama was doing that because republicans on capitol hill were blocking his agenda. Now we see that republicans on capitol hill are blocking in many ways trumps agenda so this president is doing the same thing republicans criticized the previous president for doing, which is signing a lot of executive orders because thats one way the president can get something done through this process in washington, even if capitol hill is not cooperating. Eamon, the president is up tweeting, 5 36 a. M. On this topic. The democrats, obamacare is imploding. Massive subsidy payments to their petInsurance Companies has stopped. Dems should call me to fix and that underscores exactly what we are talking about. The president there saying obamacare is imploding these steps hes been taking are going to continue its implosion. And so accelerate. Yes, accelerate, so hes pouring gasoline on the fire politically saying dems should call me. What he means is he wants a deal and he didnt get one this year and is looking for a deal next year so heres adding this fuel to the fire in the hopes that the intensity will create some kind of dealmaking possibility here. Eamon, on the topic of deals, whats the latest on iran . We had the New York Times and other Media Outlets within the past few moments publish stories which indicate that the president is not going to decertify the iran deal. Thats been the big expectation of whether or not he would do that he has called this one of the worst deals that anybody has ever signed in history we expected that he might want to pull out of the iran deal the New York Times reporting this morning that hes not going to do that instead, hes going to take a number of smaller steps, short of decertifying the iran deal. We have seen a lot of rhetoric from the Trump Administration within the past 24 hours around iran, the Ballistic Missile program, the support for terrorist organizations throughout the middle east this administration feels very hamstrung by the iran deal, in the sense that the iran deal gives them a lot it gives them inspections, a check on Irans Nuclear ambitions, but what they dont get ultimately is a permanent deal so one of the frustrations has been that the iran deal is essentially a ticking clock for the iranians to restart. What does decertify mean . Under a law on capitol hill, the president has to certify every 90 days that the iranians are in compliance with the deal. If not, congress can decide to reimpose sanctions if the president decided to decertify under the iran deal, that would Mean Congress would have to then decide to reimpose sanctions. If they did, that would be the end of the iran deal because that breaks the terms of the deal so the president is not taking action to threaten the underlying deal. Which even though he criticized it, hell do a number of things around it to sort of afternoon up u. S. Disapproval of iran but stop short of decertifying but well see the administration asking congress for more action today. And we will see the president talking about this later on in the day at the white house so expect some more rhetoric from the president around this later today. Eamon, the tension with north korea, one of the reasons that makes it harder for him to criticize and tear up the iran deal because of the message it would send to kim jongun. Absolutely. One of thequestions here is ca the United States is trusted at its word when it signs an agreement . Does it stick to that agreement . The trick is that we have elections in this country. And the future president and congress may feel very differently about the arrangements than the current one who signs any particular deal so the North Koreans have said, look, look at what happened with Moammar Gadhafi when he worked with the u. S. In terms of his nuclear ambitions. The United States turned on him at the first possible moment and he ended up dead so that is not a prescription for trust. If the United States were to break this, that would give the North Koreans the same indication to cling to their Nuclear Program at all costs because the United States wont abide by any agreements longterm. A lot to unpack there, as usual. Thank you, eamon javers. Welcome to washington going to the white house today . See you there i live for these 5 30 a. M. Live shots well, we gave you 12 minutes. Thats right. Switching focus, hollywoods icon jane fonda weighs in on the Sexual Harassment allegations surrounding movie producer Harvey Weinstein tanya brass sat down with her and is joining us with more of that interview good morning, t wilfred she was here to talk about her new film with Robert Redford and her popular show grace frankie. But the legendary actress is very outspoken and i asked her if she was surprised by the allegations against Harvey Weinstein no. Im not surprised. Im glad its coming out thank god its coming out. Not thank god women are talking, because back in the days, we were too scared to talk. Because we thought, no one would ever hire us again you know and the more women are brave enough, and make no mistake, women who come forward and talk about being sexually harassed, abused or raped, its very, very, very hard. You dont get anything out of it, except fingers being pointed at you and too often people not believe you. So its very brave of these women to do it and it gives courage to other women. What should happen to Harvey Weinstein and people like him . Tell wiwell, i think they shl go to jail and lets put bill cosby in there. But the question is, its not just hollywood this is epidemic this goes on all over the world on all kinds of levels and, you know, very, very powerful men and not very powerful men but i think that they have to be put in jail. And i think that the women who come forward have to be applauded, respected, listened to and gotten help for because it really has psychological consequences. Had you ever worked with harvey yourself . No. No and the few times that i have run into harvey, he was, he was always well, first of all, by the time i got to meet him, i was old. If youll notice, this kind of thing happens to young women who are vulnerable and really cant, well, its hard for them to defend themselves. Its hard for them to have agency over the situation. And i was old when i met him but the friends that i know who had this happen, by him and by others, are usually young and vulnerable reporter there you have it, wilfred, she feels very strongly about what should be done against Harvey Weinstein and others like him. And, of course, jane fonda herself has been outspoken about her own experiences as a young star in hollywood as well. And she said that she had been fired from a movie because she had refused to sleep with the boss and tania, thank you very much for that. Fascinating insight on this front and center topic the full interview im sure will touch some more positive topics as well. When will that be out . Reporter about in a few weeks.

Yes you can well im gone right in the heart of the was in his financial crisis, and saw his portfolio drop by double digits. It really scared him out of the markets. His advisor ran the numbers and showed that he wouldnt be able to retire until he was 68. The client realized, i need to get back into the markets i need to get back on track with my plan. The Financial Advisor was able to work with this client. Hes now on track to retire when hes 65. Having someone coach you through it is really the value of a Financial Advisor. We can we clcome back to we exchange. We are looking at slight gains for the week as the whole. Joining us is art, thank you for joining us it would have been a positive day yesterday as opposed to the Bank Earnings. Does that make you weary looking to the year ahead . Understanding expectations for the First Quarter probably were far too low and we ended up in pretty good shape. Second quarter, expectations pulled back again. And we certainly ended up in good shape we have not pulled back our expectations for the Third Quarter earnings set and yet equities moved into near or at alltime highs theres a risk that when we look at ompanies, and as they report, if theres any sort of noise around their numbers or guys sound sloppy, you can see the volatility side. Yesterday was a good example of that pretty good payments from jpmorgan and citi. You saw the stocks pull back in the afternoon. Citi has credit card worries and low miles provisions for both of them so well see how the sector itself reacts. To your point, if things are going to be looked at as companyspecific, but i think the real risk here is probably more asimilymmetric during the volatility point if theres a reason for the volatility, earnings get a much broader spectrum of reporting next week. How are you seeing sentiment in the marketplace more widely at the moment . The sentiment is probably as cautious as i have seen. The one question we get the most is, what is going to cause the market to pull back . When do we see it pull back . We have been waiting for the pull back to put new money in. Thats the consistent question and statement. So theres a real lack of rational exuberance in the market, which is net positive, but the fact that we have gone so far so long without a 3 drawdown or 4 drawdown certainly has investors concerned when thats going to happen if you look at the flip side of that, when you look at the strong reasons for that, we have synchronized Economic Growth we have good earnings growth, the economic drata improved and Central Banks globally are improving.
