Us today now christy weekly weekly jobless numbers are in now as i just mentioned 3840000 filing for unemployment which is worse than expectations again how bad can this actually get. It came back quite bad because if you remember we have been coming in worse than expectations now for about 6 weeks in a row so now you have roughly 30300000 people who have filed for unemployment in the last 6 weeks which its pretty much one in every 6 americans so with more employers cutting payroll in order to boost their earnings economists have now up their forecast that the Unemployment Rate for april could go as high as 20 percent now unemployment has always been a bit of a lagging indicator given the time it takes to process and gather all these numbers some analysts suggest that the real numbers are likely to be higher and estimated that up to 12000000 more people have lost their jobs to claim yet given the backlog in the system the biggest drops to date came from california florida connecticut and new york but what about texas we havent gotten any of the real numbers from texas yet especially given the collapse of oil and Energy Complex in the recent weeks now that active recount has been cut in half we would expect massive blast coming out of that sector within a few weeks so the really disturbing part of all of this is that far more americans have filed for unemployment now than the jobs gained during the last decade since the end of the Great Recession noto but i wanted to bring you into the conversation the unemployment point there you know were hearing so much about unemployment but it seems that markets such a bit of everything keeps to giving this impression that this is temporary this is just a temporary situation dont worry what the lockdowns what the stay in home orders are done everybody will go back to work everything will be normal again but but youve been sounding the alarm on this show that thats ignite exactly the case what do you make of these latest numbers. Well 2 things number one unless youve been on a ventilator for the last 3 months all of what she just talked about is known by the market number one number 2 we did have a capitulation bottom on that march 23rd that i talked about because everyone who had to sell it was forced to sell sold and all of a sudden people realize that i got this for 35 years and. What i tell our subscribers that transfer Money Research about 2 weeks ago was that the time do you really want to buy stocks is when its the horrible time because what youre looking for in a market the best markets go from really bad to just less bad i mean thats whats happening right now i use example of were building this table right one leg came to us from the fed a giant leg the 2nd leg really came in yesterday when the men to which i always miss print outs showed that it really had a therapeutic effect so that takes fear down people start buying all our numbers for april may june are going to be horrible but that is priced into member the market got in a fog you couldnt see your hand all of a sudden now i can see 10 feet ahead of me and now im starting to look out were pricing stocks based on 2020 to forget about 2020 forget about 2021 if you could have that imagination then you could make one hell of a lot of money right now in stocks well in tobit its interesting that you say that because you say you know it gets it gets really bad and then it gets slightly better but in reality it got really bad and now were having one of the best months since 1987 and u. S. Equity markets how does that kind of make sense i mean i understand what youre saying about were looking forward but the situation really stands that the numbers are not going get any better and yet here we are having the best month as i did the 7. Im going to say the slower but the market is not looking. Its throat out the market is not looking at 2021 its throat out if youre a here it is to venture like we are youre looking at 2022 and again what i tell subscribers all the time is there are so many stocks that have been priced as if theyre going bankrupt its like literally picking up you know dollar bills on the street or excuse me 10. 00 bills on the street for nothing and so right now thats what youre seeing 1st you saw technology play because technology has played for the last 12 years that is the future the 2nd leg youre seeing now which is rational is that were buying some Natural Gas Companies for instance that are being sold is if there are youre going down yet theyve only lost one percent of their of their you know their production and theyre selling for pennies on the dollar thats rational brant that is rational you know kristie analysts are saying this is one of the strangest earning seasons ever what are you seeing here. Oh yes toben on exactly what you said like now analysts are able to see about 10 feet up ahead of them but what theyre not able to see is whats actually going to happen at the end 2020 i get that 2020 has been thrown out the books and people are really discounting 2020 as just basically a wasted year among companies are providing very very little guidance about the future theyre trying to sound vaguely optimistic and hopeful to investors who want to believe this that they are recovering and there will be some sort of recovery always about their eating up in 2020 already so you have alphabet warning about the ad rev drops off and the Consumer Shopping less but then they ended on an optimistic saying that address actually stabilized and they have u. P. S. Reporting that theyre getting more revenues from American Online shopping despite the fact that delivery of shipments have shrunk dramatically and basically dropped off the edge of a cliff so its really a mixed bag making the data very very difficult to interpret so companies are also withdrawing their full year guide and giving uncertain climate which had been making it very hard for analysts to even put up estimates in the 1st place right now the range between the upper and the lower bounds of analyst estimates for each company has never been higher for that apart so by all the companies deliberately being opaque about their future earnings were still sitting on only 15 percent off of all time highs which is actually really crazy to think about because that doesnt make sense this be bound came way too fast a little too optimistic and too hopeful even if were pricing and if even if were looking ahead at 2021 children quickly before we wrap up here with this mixed bag of earnings across the board i mean what sectors are you actually still looking at that are good i mean you obviously missed a couple there and what are the big names that youre looking at today. Big they were buying as is usa compressors uss u. S. A. C. Because theyre the heart and soul of natural gas its a 25 percent yield they havent missed a dividend in 12 years the other we love is a new company thats kind of the i. P. O. Its called v. T. I. G. s the Ticker Symbol its nicola motors they are the tesla of freight trucks all over the world. They they do their i. P. O. The end of june we havent had a 4000000000. 00 market cap today our forecast is a 20. 00 to 30000000000. 00 market cap because they presold every truck every lecture truck fuel cell driven truck for the next 24 bucks right to be ever heard of a company who took tesla 10 years to get to 10000000 theyre going to get there in 5000000 so ben smith will have to keep an eye on that one and boom bust cohost christine thank you so much for that. Yeah. Lets take another global look at the trends and spread of the coat of iris with our t. Correspondent side so where are we today so grand deaths in the u. S. Have now exceeded 62000 people causing more destruction on the economy so it makes sense that the u. S. Government is trying to ease restrictions but the question remains is it too soon and for that i want to take a look at the numbers so 1st unemployment and and around 3800000. 00 more people have filed for unemployment the 1st time this week bringing the total to 30000000. 00 people and thats 18 percent of the labor force in the u. S. Economy well thats thats shrunk 4. 00 in the 1st quarter of this year so obviously people are out of Work Companies are going bankrupt and people want to get back to is some sort of normal but governments are also trying to balance the desperate need to haul the damage to the economy against arista of a repeat of this pandemic so whereas the u. S. Just started to ease some restriction europe has been ahead but you know europe isnt doing any better in fact the e. U. Economy shrank 3. 5 percent in the 1st quarter of 2020 and thats the worst quarterly drop your of has ever seen which is why our european leaders started to sketch out their strategy for putting their economy back to work with countries like germany Czech Republic austria and denmark among the 1st in the west to start lifting restrictions now even countries hit the worst in europe like italy and spain some businesses are reopening slowly brand so what about some of these countries that you know maybe didnt impose a. Strict lock downs and stay at home borders that we did see how are they faring this well theres obviously been a lot of criticism on governments globally for shutting down the economy but one country that never impose any kind of lockdown is sweden and you know but theyre not doing any better either economically and also in terms of cases infections in fact the death rate in sweden has now raised significantly more than any other year or more than European Countries reaching more than 24 per 100000 people and by contrast their neighbors denmark has recorded just 7 deaths per 100000 people and both norway and finland less than 4 and still sweden says its coronavirus approach has helped their economy but guess what the numbers are just a different story and a look at sweden economically now data released from Sweden Central Bank showed that their economy will be just as badly hit as their european neighbors if not worse and Sweden Central Bank give 2 possible scenarios for their Economic Outlook for 2020 now in this 1st scenario g. D. P. Contracted by 6. 9 percent in 2020 now meanwhile unemployment could reach 8. 8 percent now in a more negative prediction g. D. P. Could contract by 9. 7 percent with unemployment over 10 percent and now bull 3 bound but not on toll 2021 and lockdowns in germany spain italy france and the u. K. Have also hit their economies severely you know in fact the International Monetary fund predicts that germany in the u. K. Will see their economy strength by 6 and a half and 7 percent france 7. 00 spain 8 percent italy will see their economy shrink by 91 point one percent and. Sweden is neighbor finland and denmark which also impose lockdowns their economies will shrink by 6 percent and finland add 6 and a half percent so back to your question brad it does not appear that sweden is actually doing any better r t correspondent sites havent or thank you for keeping us up to date.

Welcome back as the world is continuing to stay indoors to do to lock down home orders a giant void has been created in the sports world every major league has been forced to shut down in some capacity here in the United States professional basketball and hockey would be in the middle of their intense playoff schedule and baseball would be in the beginning of their long season the worlds most popular sport and soccer has also been suspended the English Premier League spains Little League and the German Bundesliga have all been without game since march due to the pandemic of course that is even mentioning the other leagues throughout the world which have had to take precautions due to the virus over the last few months the executives behind all of these leagues have been looking for a way to get back on the field or pitch if you will what might all of this look like and what are the economic implications of these shutdowns and frankly jumpstarting professional sports to discuss that were joined by Karen Mcguire author of the price of football understanding the Football Club finance coming to us from liverpool and archie American Sports correspondent. Spawn chris and steve christakis here in washington d. C. Now steve im actually going start with you. We are hearing a lot of talk about contingencies to restart sports in the u. S. What are you hearing at this moment well brant 1st of all as we were just talking about off camera nascar released a statement saying they were trying to start up on may 17th in South Carolina thats yet to be determined u. F. C. Is a big one thats saying they want to start may 9th would you have said to 49. 40 but the major ones lets start with the n. B. A. For example theyre trying to be one of the 1st major sports in the u. S. To start up and they will have to do 1st of all a 25. 00 day program whenever that would begin with a 14 day quarantine and an 11 day Training Camp to get back into shape obviously for the players now you heard rumors today the latest was they might finish the season at disney world now if that does happen its yet to be determined ford is a big state that many are looking at because the governor there has relaxed orders to stay home and also deemed appropriate professional sports as essential services now next we have Something Like the n. H. L. Trying to start up with centralized host cities that could be a 4 arena plan and they would also need a 3 week trip Training Camp to get back into shape as they are trying to restart their season now these are looking mid june to july for those 2 to start up then we have the m l b trying to start 3 division 3 state new new season because they were yet to start there as they were just getting ready for opening day before this all got canceled they would look to start sometime towards july 2nd and it would be between florida arizona and texas with 10 teams in each state it would be 80. 00 to 100. 00 game season so a condensed season that would be the best possible scenario for the l. B. To have any type of season at all and then last but not least the biggest one here in the u. S. And around the world really brings in the most ad revenue with 6000000000. 00 the n. F. L. Is not wanting to lose any of that Television Ad revenue and trying to start the season on time of course but if it does not its looking for towards october 15th thered be no pro bowl thered be no bye week and the super bowl could be pushed back to february 28th and thank you steve for that and mr mcguire want to bring in the conversation how badly has soccer clubs actually been hit by the shutdown as an expert in football finance not playing matches has to be hurting the bottom line for these clubs which are hugely lucrative what are you seeing here. Well its not any effects a bottom line to think ultimately its hitting the top line in that strife driven through as far as the premier league is concerned in england weve had no matches and theres a potential repayments all over broadcasting rights to the both the domestic and the overseas broadcasters of around about 770000000. 00 u. S. U. K. Sterling so thats around about a 1000000000. 00 if matches dont return then cops have problems because that committee to wage payments because the players are on long term wage deals so the clubs are hurting and even if the matches do return in the shed around about the 7th of june its going to be taking place behind closed doors so the clubs will be losing you know a club like Manchester United to live a bloke who would tenchi be losing around about 3. 00 to 4000000. 00 per match from lots of lots of ticket sales well thats what i was going to actually ask next year because were hearing about that possibility of restarting these Leagues Premier LeagueBundesliga League all kind of reports here on thursday as you mentioned the games to be the matches would be played behind closed doors i mean were looking at when you look at my new stadium. And liverpool all of those empty i mean youre saying theres millions of euros at stake or millions of pounds if you will at stake there i mean do we also lose a big you know here in the us we often talk about sports as the surrounding areas the Small Businesses located near those stadiums near those arenas also losing out is that a big worry there in the u. K. When it comes to premier league as well. Very much so i mean the you cant call me is clearly hurting as it is all of the colonies are present to somebody the. When when liverpool are hosting a match at anfield for the weekend because its because its a global brand because its an International League famous Football Club their fans come across from the from island from the from the scandinavian countries from the far east and so on so all of the hotels are always sold out of that particular weekends and clearly they the Hospitality Industries in terms of restaurants bars taxi service is all of these already hated theyre going to be theyll be gnashing their teeth that they wont be able to get any opportunity to make to make money and whats the most lucrative weekends for the year for them you actually mentioned 2 before theyre in the 1st question about t. V. Deals which is a huge deal because you know the premier leagues deal with sky t. V. Alone is worth 1500000000 pounds a league and bonus league their contracts are worth more than a 1000000000 euros each and you know is a lot of this push to get it back about getting that Television Money to go through to satisfy these huge deals and not only that but to make the networks big money as well as get the name out there for the franchises again. Very much so the big fear of the premier league is that they have they have money from 3. 00 sources as do as does the bundesliga leaker itself and its match day which clearly isnt going to be earning as a result of taking down close doubles they have their sponsors they have their commercial partners who will only be happy if their product is being broadcast so its absolutely essential for the big leagues to be showing their product even at least to an empty stadium at least people will you know it will be guaranteed eyeballs because the countrys going crazy and everybodys climbing the walls of desperation from lockdown and the opportunity to watch football and everybody flocking to the Television Cameras it is concerning however that the French League has closed as is the one in the netherlands and belgium scotlands closed as well so already half of europe is effectively not playing football for the foreseeable future its only the big boys so it is in the shape of england spain germany italy that are remaining you know steve i want to get you in on this discussion here just a little bit while the Tokyo Olympics have been postponed until 2021 there has been some talk that they may not happen at all if a vaccine is not available by the time that theyre supposed to happen and there is a one 1000000000. 00 t. V. Contract on the line just here in the United States that the measure what else is going on throughout the u. S. You get about 30 seconds here how much of this cancellation at a cost like you mentioned that t. V. Contract with n. B. C. Is worth 1200000000 in revenue alone just with the postponement already so if it were to ultimately be canceled due to no kick back seen by 2021 that would be even more than the 1200000000. 00 that they already lost through the n. B. C. Contract now japan has spent 12600000000. 00 already on this some say the japanese the national lot of board say its twice as much maybe 23000000000. 00 but postponement has already cost them 2700000000. 00 care mcguire thank you so much for your time and steve i want you to stick around here for just a minute for our next story.
