The ceo of boyd gaming will discuss where he sees growth. Today we have henry tao, steve grasso. Should we be as concerned over whats taking place in china . I dont think the u. S. Market should be concerned at all. In china only 15 of household assets are in the Chinese Market. People are not spending according to what they make in the chinese equity market. I dont think there will be any substantial impact on the u. S. Earnings at all. Do you buy that rick . Not even a little. I dont disagree with his information. I do think there are many aspects to china unique to china. Many have no problem when commodities were racing and copper was racing saying this represented global demand. Maybe it was chinas demand. I think that this reversal may not be exactly correlating. Lets speak or let the market speak for themselves. The dollar index, bund and dax all hit the same levels in july. When i see the dow, its not everyones favorite gauge of value, but the lowest levels since february this
Ugly off 8 1 2 . Is the selling fully chinarelated here in the u. S. Or ocould there be something else, something bigger and deeper perhaps, guy . Lets start with you. Tim talking about china, i think it has a lot to do with china. When the markets down 8 on top of the moves weve seen over the last couple of months it has to have something to do with that but i also think its somewhat technical in nature. I think earnings have a lot to do with it. I think earnings have been okay but i think the chasm between eps and revenue continues to grow. I think technically the markets done everything right until last week when we traded back up, tested you willtime highs, seemingly failed, had an outside week in the s p without getting too wonky, now were going to test again those lows we saw last week or so, 2042. If it holds there, off to the races. If it fails we have to have another conversation quickly. The russell, the iwm, 121 has been the level, closed lower today for the first time in a

Then they let the market drop about 4 and futures were down. Then they just jammed it up plus one. Then the sellers came in and they stabilized it. Its kind of a victory for the bulls because it didnt close down. A typical collection and now theyre stabilizing it
Twitter. Shares down 11 premarket after showing the worst growth rate ever. I spoke the outgoing Procter Gamble ceo yesterday. That coming up. Some disappointing guidance but first up twitter taking a hit despite beating expectations revenue up 61 in the user growth quarter. Interim ceo dorsey last night expressing his dissatisfaction during the Conference Call. Instant time lines and logged out experiences have not yet had meaningful impact on growing our participation. This is unacceptable and were not happy about it. We need to do three things. One, we need to ensure a more disciplined execution. Two, we need to simplify our service to deliver twitters value faster and three, we need to better communicate our value. Stock closed at 5 . Ended up down 11 after hours. The quote of the day, we do not expect to see sustained meaningful growth until we reach the mass market and we expect it to take a period of time. Thats what i spoke to the cfo about before we came on. And i put that to
