3 10 of 1 . The dollar is on offer and the pound is overtaking the 130 level. We will try and see whether or not we are getting developments in the brexit story. Some suggest from the bbc that a deal has been done on the internal market bill that will tradingmps and crude higher as well. We saw Inventory Data a little bit early on. The fed is the main event. Alix but also, a vaccine. The official says that all americans may get a Covid Vaccine by april. The s p so far has no reaction and we are already off the lows of the session by. 3 . All americans may get a vaccine by april, unbelievable, if we can get it done and distributed. The fed has to take that into account as well. Joining us is randall kroszner. Always good to talk to you. I am trying to understand how the fed looks like a headline looks at a headline like vaccines and some Economic Data that is not terrible. Service sectors were not bad.

Mr. Portman mr. President , i want to talk tonight about a once in a Generation Opportunity we have in this senate tonight to help middleclass families, to help grow our economy, and im going to talk about the facts. Im not going to be making stuff up. Im going to talk about the real middleclass tax cuts that are in this legislation. Im going to show you charts that indicate not just what kind of tax relief is going to be there for you and your family, but whos going to pay, where the burden is. And despite what youre hearing on the floor tonight from some on the other side of the aisle, the burden of taxation actually increased in this tax bill for the wealthiest americans. And in terms of defending the status quo, which is the situation now where jobs and investment are going overseas, i think it is an outrage that this body has sat and watched company after company go overseas because of our tax code. And to say we shouldnt fix it, i dont get that. If we dont lower the rate on busin
The presiding officer the senator from utah. Mr. Hatch mr. President , ive been listening to this debate for a long time, and i have to admit its been interesting. But its been prolonged to way beyond where it should have been. My friends on the other side very much make much about this process, demeaning the members and staff who really put it together. This bill was marked up in the finance committee. It is the first reconciliation bill to be processed in committee in the senate in over 12 years. During that period, democrats held power for eight of those years. Republicans four of those years. The reconciliation bill that made up part of the Affordable Care act never went through the finance committee. That reconciliation bill never went through any real senate process. Now to be fair, the Affordable Care act repeal bill that my side proposed didnt go through the finance committee either. As difficult as it was, as chairman, i put out a chairmans mark, modified it, permitted debate

We havent had the confirmation high by the record other major averages. Also, keep in mind that in terms of what professional traders watch, its not typically the dow. Theres not a lot benchmarked against the dow, which is a price weighted average versus the market cap weighted averages of the s p and nasdaq. Something else to keep in mind about the dow plus gain today. Lets take a look at mov on the bloomberg picked this looks at the movers within a given index. You can buy index points, which individual stocks are contributing the most. We had the scatterplot on the upper right. Tc most of the stocks that are detracting or contributing, and the range of 20 points to the dows gain. Then you have one stock way over in the corner. That dot is representing apple, which is accounting
