A Market Reaction to this but. I think this really just confirms what investors are to new which is the German Economy is stagnating and there isnt really much hope of a turnaround at this point there was at least one bright spot in this report the 3rd quarter g. D. P. Was survives higher but all in all the German Economy remains particularly the industrial sector is in its longest and deepest recession since in 10 years and if you add into this that the fears over coronavirus and what impact that could have on the industrial sector the talk today is really again about a potential technical recession in germany. So economics is continuing here in germany are we seeing this yet on the main streets in germany amongst the public how do we see this. So far the slowdown has really been concentrated in the Manufacturing Sector but there are some signs that it could be starting to spill over this report today i mentioned a market slowdown in private consumption and the 4th quarter and thats really been the backbone of the German Economy over the past several months as the Manufacturing Sector has slowed so if that starts to slow if people stop spending that could be a big problem for the German Economy at the same time. And employment has remained quite low but we are seeing just a stream of reports from companies. On job cuts and things like that including 15000 new job cuts that are the earlier this week all right to delimit with leaders from frankfurt thank you.

Well today marks 15 years since you tube was born and the site was set up by 3 former colleagues at pay pal to give people a place to share clips online a decade and a half later accounts over 1500000000. 00 monthly users and added 15000000000. 00 in ad revenues last year heres a look at how it all began. Very 1st video could scarcely have been simpler during his trip to the zoo cofounded jahvid karim had no idea what his primitive creation would become just a year later he and his friends chad hurley and steve chen would be striking the deal of a lifetime. Thanks but never less than 1650000000. 00 since being bought by the worlds most visited web site you tube itself has become the worlds 2nd most visited web site. And its not just john fit chad and steve who its made which is created a whole new brand of celebrity the most successful you tube has such as hyperactive sweet beauty probably make in excess of 10000000 dollars a year. Over the past 15 years you tube has become more than just somewhere to share videos branching out into music and Subscription Services and ever 70 languages now you tube is contributing 15000000000. 00 a year in ad revenue to owners Google Alphabet if you told them that to be the case back in early days they might well have nothing to. Write im joined now in studio by my did business colleagues. Here you started your own you tube channel in 2007 how did the site look back then compared to how it works now yes the docs shameful past remember at that time i was very interesting everybody was doing what basically i was doing i was a teenager in my bedroom talking about the most mundane things it wasnt fancy at all and it was not about production a cement or ad revenue at all and that only started in about like 2012 i think and now are the ad revenue is i think 2001000 was 15000000000. 00 us dollars which is insane you know we talk about this earlier i look at you tube and i see that its almost the interface has really changed that much so user driven i look at and i say has really changed that much you say its changed completely yes definitely especially the top creators of you tube users basically that have generated the most viral content they say that you tube is not what they used to be used to be like a fun place where you could be creative where you could be weird and now a lot of it has been taken over by by big names like t. V. Networks. Also for example Music Production companies and they are taking all of the views and all of that original content is not as prominent as it was before does that mean that you tube is likely to become the new t. V. If we can even say that is it going to replace t. V. For a lot of the Younger Generation who goes 1st there and not to the cable package i mean ive basically grown up with you tube i never watch t. V. And im 28 so all of the kids basically i think its the same for them and i also think that at some point video on demand also with other platforms like netflix and amazon prime it will be basically those platforms and people will go there and the only thing left to do for t. V. Would be breaking news maybe and also some sporting events if thats not also brought up by them so i dont know whether we will be sitting here and 15 is a huge deal with the same time has faced controversy maybe not to the likes of facebook and some social messaging sites but around hate speech for example around Child Protection protection things like that is that going to continue how are they dealing with well not that well actually especially in april last year there was a controversy because people thought it was criticized for the fact that people of working for you to have criticize the fact that engagement was key that was king of that was the most important thing to you tube and not for example protecting people especially there was a controversy about homophobic comments all to rights movements and also misinformation on Climate Change and its the same as the other platforms thats the question youre going to take aside what does taking sides mean what is free speech these are all of the questions that will be here as long as the platforms are here no different many ways from other social media platforms the question of responsibility. Business thank you very much. Germanys aging population has a problem for its labor market by grants from places like syria and afghanistan have been tipped as a possible solution but are they in fact finding their way to the countrys labor market well a new report from the organization for Economic Cooperation and development or o. E. C. D. Says not in full it says migrants need help finding the programs as well as more systems to be to be able to succeed on the german job market and while hurdles remain there are some hopeful stories. To share tajik is performing final checks at the maintenance step of homburg inner city rail system hes almost there the 30 year old came here with his wife from afghanistan and 2015 now hes just about to finish up his apprenticeship as an electronic technician. For me personally it was difficult because german is not my native language. Its been a long time since i was in the school room. So i had to start learning from the beginning again after 10 years. Before the migrants start their training they take introduction classes to get them ready some 400 young people have done the courses already at the German Railway. These courses they get the necessary grounding in subjects like german math english and physics. The young men here come from syria afghanistan iran and iraq for them their goal is to get a Technical Education at the hamburg spawn. An apprenticeship in germany means taking teary classes in a Technical College then practical work on the job. Its a challenge for instructor ben to look at. Many students have come straight from war zones and their school days are long behind them. We have to make it clear that it doesnt really work without extra teaching and in some cases retraining and we invest a lot of time to make sure that all trainees graduation the same year. Of why not simply nationwide more than 50 refugees are doing Vocational Training at the German Railway once they finish their much in demand germany has a shortage of skilled workers so this is a win win situation.
