On the one hand, we have a vaccine and encouraging news from the pharmaceutical companies. I am looking forward to catching up with the roche chief executive on the treatment out there. On the other hand, we get infections rising in the latest one from the cdc, saying lees try not to travel for tryksgiving please not to travel for thanksgiving. U. S. Futures are actually down.

Im Carl Quintanilla with jon fortt and Julia Boorstin markets looking good, yields up and oil up as investors are focused on two things, the prospects for more stimulus covid aid and the potential departure of the president from walter reed on the latter point well turn to eamon javers good morning. Good morning, carl. No information yet from the white house at 11 00 a. M. , but they did bring the White House Pool reporters over from the white house here to walter reed which indicates there might be some expectation that we could get a briefing for the press within the next hour or so were going to stand by for that meanwhile, no indication whether theyve made the decision yet to move or not move the president they say theyll make that decision with the medical team later on this afternoon. So we continue to wait here as we learn that the Vice President and mrs. Pence have tested ne
