Weve had confirmation of a monster deal. Ryanair, europes largest carrier, committing to the 737. Maxs. Oing to buy 75 737 this comes on the heels of that grounded,being un after the huge grounding following those two crashes. We will be talking to the two ceos of these companies at the top of the next hour. Alix this is your super bowl. I just want to point that out. Some data dropping right now as well. Ism men effect ring data for november ism manufacturing data for november. Mike mckee has that. Michael it is slightly less than we expected. It comes in lower than the prior month. The services pmi comes in at 55. 9 from 56. 6. Not much of a change. Still growing strongly, which is important because this is a Services Economy. New orders were down a touch, as is the business facility. 51. 5 from 50. 1. In the Manufacturing Survey earlier this week, we saw employment fall into contraction soritory for manufacturing, Rising Services employment is still good news for the auto for the overall economy. Compare this to what we saw for the Market Services pmi. It tells you the two of them are saying the same thing, that the Services Economy is any and there. Is hanging in there. If it is growing, it is growing very slowly. Least,hanging speeds, at very slowly. Alix what happens when you have the benefits running out as well . Michael mckee. The u. S. Reporting its deadliest day ever with covid19 fatalities now topping 2700 on tuesday. California reported a Record Number of new pick of new cases that prompted las mayor to order residents to stay home. My message couldnt be simpler. It is time to hunker down. It is time to cancel everything. And if it isnt essential, dont do it. Dont meet up with others outside your household. Dont host a gathering. Dont attend a gathering. Following our targeted safer at home order if you are able to stay home, stay home. Alix joining us to discuss is a senior scholar at the Johns Hopkins center for Health Security at the Bloomberg School for Public Policy for Public Health. We need some perspective. Just how bad is it in l. A. , and how often are we going to hear what the mayor talked about in other cities Going Forward . What we are seeing is that there are hospitals realizing that the number of cases and the pace of the missions is unsustainable. They are getting to the point where their capacity becomes a concern on a daytoday basis. They have to think about what Nonemergency Services they have to curtail. This is something that we knew would happen during the fall, and it is not surprising to many people that this virus accelerated as we had more fandom more pediment fatigue, as we had the virus be favored by the colder conditions. Angeles, they dont have the public house for structure system to basically keep track of the cases and meet them as they come. If you see testing lines outside of las dodger stadium, those are really not acceptable this far into the pandemic. Many of what has happened didnt have to be so if we had a Public Health structure that could that could test, track and isolate. Expect theo we effects of thanksgiving took again . Dr. Adalja probably in the next couple of days we will see cases increase if there was significant transmission, and then a week later and uptick in hospitalizations. What we are seeing right now is not the result of thanksgiving. It is the result of people doing things before that holiday. There is a real concern that what the holiday brings will be kind of a surge on top of a surge, to use dr. Faucis words. Alix after l. A. , whos next . Where the next hotspot . Dr. Adalja what we have basically as a country full of hot spots. The media often focuses on major metropolitan areas like los angeles and new york, but it is often the work the rural and suburban areas where i am mark concerned because those hospitals dont have the people to be to increase staffing as much, and maybe a dozen icu beds in their hospitals. They dont have the ability to take more patients. Thats where i think you will see the first collapse of the hospitals that really run into problems and have to curtail services. It is all ready happening in the pittsburgh suburbs. It is not going to always be the big major cities because they tend to have big academic medical centers. It is the smaller hospitals, the rural hospitals, where i think we will see a major problem. The we are expected to see Pfizer Vaccine being cleared by the fda within the next few days. Sitting here in london, it has just been cleared here. As we see the case counts, the hospitalization counts, the death counts rising rapidly, how does that complicate the rollout of the vaccine . Dr. Adalja the vaccine is not going to change our death count overnight. It is going to take some time. It is going to trickle out to highrisk individuals and healthcare workers, so we will see theme to impact on deaths and hospitalizations. We probably wont feel that impact into spring. The rollout is going to be difficult in the best circumstances, even more difficult in the middle of heightened activity of heightened pandemic activity, especially when youre trying to vaccinate the general public. You dont want people to get infected with a are in the line to get vaccinated. Adalja, we are going to leave it there. Thank you very much, indeed. Lets get back to that monster deal i announced at the top of the hour. Boeing ceiling a landmark order for its 737 max jets from ryanair, a crucial boost for the u. S. Plane makers efforts to revise its best selling model after a 20 month grounding. Joining us now, Brooke Sutherland, blumer giving and columnist. Theyve got a look Bloomberg Opinion columnist. Do you think these are going out the door to ryanair at cost . Brooke i would be very surprised if they are going out the door at cost. Typically we see airplane orders of this size are already seeing pretty sick of the can discounts given be 20 month ash pretty significant discounts pretty significant discount. Iven the 20 month grounding, would be very surprised. Tos will go a decent way helping boeing clear out the 450 max jets that it has not yet been able to deliver. Just to take a step back, this is still a win for boeing. I think the key phrase here is that this is a firm order. , there member last year was a letter of intent to buy jets, so having a firm order is certainly a boost that boeing badly needed. Alix are there other airlines that are. Going to want the same deal that are going to want the same deal . Brooke i dont think boeing is in a position to drive a hard bargain here. I think they will have to build these planes on the lines that the airlines are willing to pay. I will say this is a pretty sizable order, suffer some of the Smaller Airlines looking to take deliveries, their price point is not exact what it once was. Guy do using southwest is next . Brooke it will be interesting to see what happens with southwest. Its reported that southwest is in talks with boeing. It is not necessarily going to be an additional order. It will be part of southwests existing order, just repurchasing some of those jets. I dont know at this point if we should expect to see southwest topping up its order like ryanair did. Boeing is struggling with a lot of carriers right now. Theyve been clear they dont need a lot of additional new planes in their fleet right now. I dont know that we will see necessarily a wave of airlines announcing orders along the lines of what we heard today from ryanair. I think a lot of these carriers are going to want to see some kind of recovery start to take place before they are willing to really expand their fleet. Alix such a good point. Thank you very much, Brooke Sutherland of Bloomberg Opinion. In the next hour, we will speak to the ceos of boeing, as well as ryanair. You dont want to miss that. This is bloomberg. Ritika lets check in on the bloomberg first word news. Im ritika gupta. Fewer americans than expect it filed for an implement last week. Totial jobless claims fell 712,000. That is better than all but one of the 40 estimate in the bloomberg survey. Continuing claims were also down to a little more than 5. 5 million. November jobs reports come out tomorrow. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer are now backing a bipartisan stimulus plan. They see the proposal from house and Senate Lawmakers as the foundation for a new round of negotiations. The plan calls for 900 billion. F spending the u. S. Has restricted travel visas for millions of memory of Chinas Communist Party new rules will allow Party Numbers and their families to obtain visas good for one month. Previously they could get 10 year visas. The u. S. Embassy in beijing says Chinas Communist Party actively tries to influence americans through propaganda and economic coercion. Opec and its allies are making progress in talks on oil output cuts. That increases the chances that todays meeting can salvage a deal after failed negotiations earlier in the week. Told bloomberg discussions are now focusing on proposals for gradual easing of output cuts over several months. Global news 24 hours a day, on air and on bloomberg quicktake, powered by more than 2700 journalists and analysts in more than 120 countries. Im ritika gupta. This is bloomberg. Alix thank you so much. Here is some breaking news for you. The cable rate is the highest level since december 2019. It means the pound is up against the dollar, the most we have seen in over a year. So a lot of bets on a weaker dollar, the same way we are seeing more bets on higher yield. Joining us now on how you restructure your portfolio is based on those two things, michael antonelli, baird market strategist. What you do as an equity guy . Michael we have been watching these. Certainly a lower dollar to some of our multinationals. You are probably talking about boeing today with that deal. Theres printing to like theres plenty to like about a weaker dollar at this current juncture of history. We need to get these Global Companies back on track, and that will certainly help. We are certainly watching yields. If using about 92 basis points on the 10 year, we are inching closer to 1 . Stocks and yields are kinda moving in the same direction right now. The only concern is maybe sentiment is probably a little bit over its skis, and that lowers the threshold he would have for a shakeup. Guy would you be pushing this market higher . Would you be putting fresh money to work . Does this market make sense to you . Michael thats where we are at as strategists. We end this incredible year weve had, and we look forward to talking to clients about 2021. I think december probably starts off choppy. We are set up for possibly a little pullback, but i think we end strong. I really do believe that most estimates of next years gdp are probably low. I will tell you one reason. People consistently underestimate how much americans are willing to spend. And i think on the others out of this, americans are going to be spending. Alix but does that imply that we are going to get some kind of stimulus out of d. C. . Do you have to have that based into your forecast to get more bullish on stocks . Michael no, i think the stimulus would be a nice push, and i do think that is going to happen if you look at the washington wrangling going on. Dan clifton is one of the political strategists at strategas. He thinks the administration is looking for a deal that will probably happen before yearend. Im excited about that. I dont think the market needs that, per se. We are rally and without that. But if we get the stimulus on the table plus that boost next year, you are looking at a good set up. The table is set for a really good 2021 if the vaccine can get us there. Guy in the near term, the case count is going higher. Do you think that translates into Economic Data . The claims number today i think we can probably put to one side. It comes with a health warning. Other data are pointing to a slowdown. Do you think we will see that manifesting itself in a big way . For payrolls friday, what would it take to spook the market in terms of payroll numbers . Dr. Adalja i think payrolls michael i think payrolls is going to miss for a couple of reasons. Yes, the case is seem to be rising. The discount and hospitalizations in the u. S. Is at record highs right now the case counts and hospitalizations in the u. S. Is at record highs right now. There will be more people out of work. The market, i believe, is looking past that. I think the vaccine certainly helps. My biggest concern shortterm, to be quite honest, is that as a vaccine rolls out in the u. K. And then comes to the u. S. , what happens if just a random coincidence of somebody who takes a vaccine and gets sick right after that, what happens to the market then . I think that is a real big question mark. Theres a couple billion people that are going to have this vaccine within the first 3, 6, 12 months. I am worried about how the market is going to react to one possible negative case. But i do believe Economic Data is going to be weak in the near term. I think unemployment tomorrow probably misses. Alix are you buying the dip . Guyael this Research Sales used to say big moves start big moves. If you look at things like housing, some of the reopening trades, the bounce of the lows are in, but as you continue to reopen, i think you can still dabble in the Airline Space and the crude oil space. If you think that the roaring 20s is a thesis for next year, theres lots of ways to play it. I would stick to the Consumer Spending because i think that is going to be really robust here. Guy michael, always a pleasure. Thanks for taking the time. Michael antonelli of baird, we really appreciate it. What have we got coming up on the show . We will be talking to jim chanos on his view of what elon musk should do next. Hear that conversation next. This is bloomberg. Guy live from london, and guy johnson. This is bloomberg markets. Associatesof kynikos has been long tesla for five years. Hes not done just yet. He spoke exclusively with scarlet fu. I think that it is really a Business Model and a valuation issue with tesla. There are some things we dont want their accounting as well. A Company Trading at a 500 billion market cap. It will have revenues this year of 30 billion. Despite what everyone says, they are still an automobile company. They make cars. So they are competing with other companies that make cars. And increasingly, those companies have evs as well. Tesla, every bull market has a stock that people pin their hopes and dreams on. Back in the dotcom era, it was cisco and yahoo and a few others. Certainly one of those stocks this go around his tesla. For some holders, it is an ev company. For others it is a clean energy company. For others it is an Autonomous Vehicle company. It is whatever people want to believe that elon musk is touting, and that the traditional rules of valuation do not apply to it. I would just point out, as i always do, that for the trailing 12 months, tesla has not made any money selling cars. Of the trailing 12 months, whatever profit they have shown has been very low, has been from selling tax credits. So for all of this, for all of their market leadership, selling 50,000 on average cars, they are still not making any money doing it. Francine have you ever met scarlet have you ever met elon musk or talks to him . Jim ive never met him. Ive never had a conversation with him. Scarlet what would you say to him if you do get to meet him . Jim i would say Job Well Done so far. Scarlet going back to that idea that People Project whatever they want on the company, you anounced your tesla short in fiveyear saga. All of your shorts are capped at 5 . Are you still max short on tesla . Jim we are not max short, but we are still short. There are now so many other things to do, including in the ev space, that we found lots of other things that are maybe even crazier than tesla, but we deals but we still do have a position. It has been painful clearly, but i will say for the first four of those five years, it is not a bad short. It went sideways while the market went up. So those are the kind of shorts in a bull market that you hope for. , and ourt is going up shorts are not going up. But the last 12 months has been a different animal. Foldtock is up five or six , and we had to risk manage it by getting money out. Chanos of was jim Kynikos Associates speaking with scarlet fu. Hes not the only one to say im not max short. Goleman sachs, their analyst is upgrading tesla to about a from neutral,buy i should say. They say the shift towards battery vehicle adoption is accelerating. I feel like it is a little late to the tesla party. Battery prices have been falling for a long time. But who am i to judge . Guy and it is quite a big upgrade as well. The other thing i will point out is that you can argue the germans are getting into gear. You cant talk about years when you talk about electric cars. Germany is about to overtake california in terms of its adoption of electric vehicles. Europe is beginning to gain traction here. It is going to be interesting to see whether or not that changes the balance between the carmakers and the electric carmakers. It is going to be fascinating to see how the likes of bmw and daimler get going on this one. Alix people are going to need to buy a lot of evs. Still ahead, we will take a look at what bidens presidency means for u. S. Clean energy. This is bloomberg.

[announcer] goodrx, stop paying too much for your prescriptions. Alix live from new york, im alix steel come with guy johnson in london. This is bloomberg markets. Legislation could lead to Chinese Companies getting kicked off of american next ages if regulators cant review their financial products. President trump is expected to sign the bill. We want to bring in balance of power host david westin. How big a deal is this . Where does this leave biden . David first of all, it is a done deal. It has been pending for some time. Having said that, if you actually look at the number of Chinese Companies listed, it is not that much money, and the markets didnt react that much, although it certainly is another instance of the outgoing President Trump trying to box in the incoming president elect joe biden. It is going to be hard for him politically to reverse that. Guy why did it take the house so long to catch up with the senate . David theres been a backandforth, and frankly the fcc has been doing this for some time. I think they just didnt get around to it. They had a lot of other issues on their platter, and they didnt get to it. But as you know, this is the most important point, there is bipartisan agreement on one thing in washington. People dont like china. Alix but biden said he wont be lifting the tariffs, not necessarily that he is going to him for him into more. But he wants to work with his peers at the european union. That is little bit different. David absolutely. This is one of the things the president elect has to steer a course through. He doesnt want to just go back on everything that President Trump did because president elect biden has said he should be tough on china. He once to take a multilateral approach, so hes got to figure out when to pull up those tariffs, how, and what he gets in exchange. Handicap for me a stimulus deal before christmas. David its a lot better odds than it was yesterday. Youve got this bipartisan proposal out of the senate. Now you have president elect joe biden saying we thing that is a good down payment, as he put it, on something Going Forward. Basically, they are boxing in Mitch Mcconnell, and perhaps more importantly, giving speaker of the house pelosi and elegant way to maybe climb down from her position. Lets be frank, that bipartisan proposal is way south of where she was, but more than what Mitch Mcconnell wants to get. I think it is 5050, maybe a little but better than that right now. Alix do we know what role president elect biden played in making this stimulus get done . David i dont know. I wasnt in the room. Having said that, my information has been for some time this is sort of where you would like to go, to take half a loaf instead of go for the full. He wants some Energy Behind the economy. As we know, it is faltering right now, particularly with the covert shutdowns. He needs a little bit of wind under his sales. If the senate stays republican, this may be the only stimulus we get. We may not get any year. Guy Mitch Mcconnell is speaking right now on the senate floor, saying we should move forward where there is agreement. Where is there agreement . David where there is agreement is small businesses. Everyone agrees its got to be small businesses, and i think everyone agrees we have to get some cash into the pockets of ordinary americans. Where there is not agreement specifically is on assistance to states because in that bipartisan agreement, there was still 220 still 280 billion for state and the governments. Republicans have said we dont want that. Alix round this conversation out for me because we are still looking at different parts of the cabinet for president elect biden. Where are we in terms of cabinet picks . What are the relevant ones we are still looking at . David the big one people are expecting next is the health team, specifically health and Human Services secretary. I think that is the next in line. Obviously theres a large issue with the panic on. With the pentagon. Hes done very well with women, also with asian americans, not as many African Americans yet. Of course, we dont have an attorney general yet. Guy david, thanks for your time. Really appreciate the update. You can catch david westin on balance of power at 12 00 p. M. In new york, 5 00 p. M. Here in london. Lets talk about what is going to be a big part of the biden adminstration, and that is the switch to green energy. Scott jacobs, generate capital ceo and cofounder, joining us now to talk about this. I am really curious as to how this is going to work in reality. To makes industry need this transition happen in the United States . Is it as simple as the biden adminstration coming in and providing stability, providing clarity on how the rules will work . Scott that will undoubtedly help. You are hitting on the most important point that industry always asks of government, which is clear, transparent, longterm policy so that we know what the rules of the game are, and then we can compete our way to try and find the solutions. It is clear that in the past, we have taken different approaches where we prefer certain technologies over others, and in fact, as you probably well know, we subsidize the fossil fuel industry by more than six times more than we have subsidized Renewable Power or anything in the Climate Solutions side of the equation for the last several decades. We are just looking for a level playing field. It is wonderful that the administration is looking to establish clear, longterm, transparent rules. But there are other things we would like to see, and the best four years for clean energy trumps for years. That highlights just how little sometimes the federal Government Matters with respect to climate resilient infrastructure, and what we need to build in order to stave off catastrophic effect of climate change. Alix lets pretend that d. C. Has a bazillion dollar stimulus for clean tech, all kind of stuff. How much of that as many factored in the u. S. , and how much of it is manufactured elsewhere . How difficult would it be to ship that . Scott that is an important point, and i know the Obama Administration was very focused on bringing manufacturing on shore with a number of the parts of the american reinvestment and recovery act. As you know, that was only 80 billion or so worth of investment from the government, and the biden plan contemplates a much more significant investment, but i will also point out that what we are really focused on right now is the deployment of solutions. Back in 2008, we could worry about inventing new solutions to the climate problem. Now we dont have time to wait for new investments to come out of m. I. T. s lab. It is about infrastructure, not invention. The good news is we have proven solutions. We already many factor a lot of those solutions already manufacture a lot of those solutions here on shore. The u. S. Has a prison of and wrote a play. Has a pretty significant role to play. We many factor solar panels here , batteries here, Wind Turbines here. The Manufacturing Base that is here in the u. S. , there is a big emphasis on enabling the United States vehicle many factors Vehicle Manufacturers to produce clean vehicles as well. I thing a lot of the manufacturing is on shore, and it is not that hard to continue to incentivize more of that. This is one of the key questions governments around the world are asking themselves. If i spend money on this, how am i going to maintain that money within my economy and not let it leak out . In europemilar story as in the United States. Should governments mandate that when it spends money, manufacturing happens in that country . Is it as simple as that . Scott my view is that the government should play a crucial role in terms of the supplyside , and a more specific role in the demand side. In other words, set the outcome you want to achieve, and let the market sorted out. That is how you reduce the amount that any of this costs to a taxpayer or a government. In fact, what we know is that most of these investments pay off. These are Iconic Solutions for customers we are talking about. The reason why clean energy has seen the massive growth over the last decade that it has seen is because it offers a better, Value Proposition to the customer than the alternative. So i dont know we need to worry so much about incentivizing specific solutions on the supplyside, and instead focus on the outcomes that we want instead of incentivize the market to achieve. Alix what kind of Sectors Companies are best positioned to put in the private capital that will be needed . Scott again, this is an interesting point. We talk about 2 trillion in the biden climate plan. 15 trillion is coming in from the private markets into sustainability over the next decade, according to mckinsey. Youve got another set of trillions of dollars coming into the sector from private actors transitioning out of old fossil fuel Energy Investments into what is called the Energy Transition area. So the private capital is going to dwarf the government capital that goes into this, and the industries that are going to benefit our renewable energy, power production, energy efficiency, devices. Pretty basic stuff like sensors and controls that go into buildings. Hvac systems that are more efficient, also manufactured all around the world, certainly. Not as much in the United States, in that case. You got electric vehicles. Guy all of that makes sense, and that is relatively straightforward and feels incremental. Some of the decisions are not incremental. They are great leaps forward. Hydrogen feels like one of those. Stand on those kinds of decisions . You can invest billions in hydrogen and find out that it is simply a white elephant. Scott many of us may remember george w. Bush, and i think a fuelingpaign ad, a gm vehicle with hydrogen. It has always been right around the corner. The industry has been very excited because it represented a transition of their fossil fuel fleet more than perhaps wholesale change into the Electric City sector, which many of them are also trying to embrace. Hydrogen is something that is actually quite real. We are one of the largest owners of Hydrogen Powered vehicles. It is not a vehicle that you are i would drive, but it is forklifts. These forklifts have been sitting in walmart and amazon and u. S. Postal Service Distribution centers for many years, driving an economic benefit to the customer that is the reason why it has been adopted. So it is not that far off in terms of an industry that is available to be deployed today as a solution. It is actually here, and it is important not to paint with such a broad brush. We actually know certain segments where the economics are just too compelling to do anything else, and it is a or customeregment by customer situation, and hydrogen is a solution for mini customers already today. Guy some Big Decisions need to be made. Scott jacobs, generate capital ceo and cofounder, thank you very much indeed. This is bloomberg. Ritika this is bloomberg markets. Coming up later today, an exclusive conversation with Southern Bancorp ceo deron williams. This is bloomberg. Lets check in on the bloomberg first word news now. Im ritika gupta.

Global news 24 hours a day, on air and on bloomberg quicktake, powered by more than 2700 journalists and analysts in more than 120 countries. Im ritika gupta. This is bloomberg. Alix still ahead, opec is meeting, but guess whos chairing it . It is russia, not saudi arabia, causing lot of questions in the oil market as to how russia is going to be leading the opec coalition. We will break that down with dan onker for what his trade is this. This is bloomberg. Ritika its time for the bloomberg business. Im ritika gupta. 3m plans to start a Global Restructuring that could affect about 2900 jobs. The company that makes everything from postits to Aerospace Parts expects to take a pretax charge of as much as 300 million. 3m says restructuring will affect more business groups and functions.

Individual Vehicle Owners wont be allowed to list their cars for daily rentals. Will useturo rental company to provide their insurance. That is your latest business flash. Alix thanks so much. Time now for futures in focus. Wti pretty much flat. Brent up by 0. 3 . Reportedly, opec is discussing an increase in supply by 500,000 barrels of oil a day. They are also talking about when they want to start that increase. Russia is now chairing the meeting instead of saudi arabia. That has many analysts scratching their heads. Lets get the break down with dan dicker, founder of the energy word. Hes traded oil for decades, and has a new book out. It is such a pleasure to see you. What do you think is going to happen . What is the price impact . Think that is the worry, and that is why novak is chairing the meeting. Want nois clearly cutback from the 7. 7 million they are down in terms of production quotas, and the russians of course wanted quite a bit more. That has been the dynamic between the two of them ever since opec started. The russians always looking to pump more, the saudis always looking to hold the line and make prices go up. I think a deal has already been done. More of ans are given leadership role here. Theyve become more a part of what is a collective effort from the opec cartel Going Forward, not just all sitting on the sidelines. ,n terms of what is going on 500,000 barrels a day probably still in early january. That is why you are not seeing much reaction right now. Alix i wonder also for other companies how they are looking at the price impact. Clearly saudis are going to be very sensitive to how the prices moving higher. They wanted high, but not too high for u. S. Shale companies. I wonder what that magic number is. Dan so do the rest of us. We are all stuck in this cycle between having prices go up because of holding the line on production from opec numbers, and then watching Shale Companies rush in to take up the oficit, whatever deficit production there is, and take it vantage of higher prices. In the end, we are always looking at u. S. Shale companies and how they will react to what opec does and how fast the vaccines are going to have an effect on demand, all of these things. But the wildcard always is u. S. Shale companies are going to react. They are down 2 Million Barrels from before the pandemic. They are up another 300,000 barrels since this price recovery sort of started. The question becomes how are we going to get to a place for the sake of everybody, even environmentally, and get a stable and rising price without incentivizing u. S. Shale companies to continue to flood the market whenever the price gets good . That is really the ultimate question on all of this. Guy if saudi and the uae cant get on, how fragile is opec Going Forward . Are we going to see further fractures down the road as we make this Energy Transition . How difficult is it going to be to manage this cartel . Dan youve got 23 members now, at the beginning there were seven, so it is getting tougher as it gets split up. The uae has clearly had a much of walking in terms in lockstep with the saudis. That may be done now. That may be partially the reason why the russians are chairing this reason. The saudi want to try and find a little more collective effort, and maybe engage others in terms of leadership roles inside opec so they can hold the cartel together in the longterm.
