The two year note about. 16 and the 30 yearlong bond 1. 45 as well very strong from the starting position and you can see that now that translates to gains of less than 1. 8 on the ftse and typically its been one of the underperformers but you can see out in front today the u. K. Stock market not the 2 but also getting back some of the territory has been the german dax, 1. 5 you can see it suggesting a broadening out of this rally around coronavirus its up 6. 9 we had the resignation of the chairman and the ceo activists want job cuts. The unions had success against the Management Team and now the Management Team left a stunning report over the weekend. They failed to turn a profit from at least 2016 but thats fine because the asian business but the asian business is where the 1. 9 Million Euros have been missing through. Thank you very much. Now to the on going coronavirus outbreak here in this country becoming worse over the 4th of july weekend several states reporting Record Number of cases amid surging outbreaks but the Trump Administration continues to push forward with its bid to reopen the American Economy alice joins us now from washington good morning good morning, in the hardest hit areas leaders are warning that the virus is moving faster than they can to contain it. In miami the mayor saying that they are having exponential growth there while in houston. That citys mayor warning that hospitals could reach capacity in two weeks this morning concerns over how a Holiday Weekend of partying could add to a record breaking surge in coronavirus cases. While others shut them down and banned large gatherings. A mixed response to mixed messages President Trump down playing the seriousness and blaming increased testing. By so doing, we show cases, 99 of which are totally harmless. Not backing up that unfounded claim. Im not going to get into who is right and who is wrong. Those data show us that this is a serious problem. Houston is among the hardest hit. A month ago 1 in 10 people were testing positive and now its 1 in 4. The mayor of phoenix says the state reopened too early. We were one of the last states to go to stay at home and one of the first to reimmerse. The Trump Administration insists the city can continue to reopen safely. We are far better prepared to deal with those now than months ago. Officials urging personal responsibility to control the spread while many medical experts call for a National Strategy President Trump is also saying a vaccine will likely be ready long before the end of the year he would not back that up promising no vaccine will be released until its proven safe and ffective thats Berkshire Hathaway announcing its buying dominion. Spending 4 billion including the assumption of debt the deal totals almost 10 billion and marks the first major purchase from berkshire since the coronavirus pandemic and subsequent market collapse in march amid that deal, dominion is pulling the plug on its Atlantic Coast pipeline project with duke energy and uber reached a deal to buy post mates the 2. 65 billion dollars deal will be announced as soon as today. Reports of the potential union first surfaced last week after uber failed in a bid earlier this year to acquire rival Food Delivery Company grub hub. Back to you. Everybody trying to catch door dash there. Lets turn back to the markets as wall street looks to build on last weeks momentum despite the concerns surrounding the coronavirus. Do you feel comfortable right now given what you have seen i havent been comfortable in 25 years theres nothing to be comfortable about. You have to be aware that at any point you could have a pull back in the marketplace. So one of the things that i have been talking to investors about is convertible securities which is the midway point we inquirity exposure and not taking as much risk in the underlying equity. So i want to stop there because were talking about convertible bonds. Convertible bonds just for those we know many viewers know what they are but for those that dont theyre like hybrid bonds. Bonds with a conversion factor that lets you get stock at certain points in the bonds life its a hybrid. If thats the case, does that mean youre taking a very hedged approach to the market if you miss perhaps some of the rally here and you want to get involved, this is perhaps a good way to get involved because you had more down side protection in the event that you have a pull back in the market because you typically have about 50 of the down side participation of the underlying equity while still preserving 70 or 75 of the upside so youre taking a view on the market plus the convertibles universe today is over 50 in technology and health care. Which is the part of the market that you want to stay weighted too. That use of technology because of all the different ways that were living and talked about that before and within health care, clearly a cure to this pandemic resides in our Health Care System what would you say could take this market down thanks to the fed or bank of japan and everybody else out there look, we had an extraordinary decline in the First Quarter. At any point in time it could impact stocks and of course were in an Election Year how far down could equity prices go. It could be the put that everybody is looking for right now. Thank you very much. Always great to hear your thoughts. Thanks.

What has changed new u. S. Sanctions in may. Chips made with u. S. Equipment and software seems to be the big change one of the branches of the British Intelligence agency. Thats now in the hands of government ministers untrusted equipment. If its not able to get its hands on equipment and that could create security flaws and huawei has responded and is open to discussion with the u. K. Government have oversight over its technology as well what implications this has for huawei now and other european nations looking over at the u. K. And what moves to make when it comes to their 5g networks. One thing for certain is a big growth for huawei and what is a round two decade still back to you. So lets take us through the next steps here. Is this move significant enough to have ripple effects across other countries. Who are also looking to use Huawei Technology in their 5g Wireless Networks as well. It certainly could be this is a branch of the u. K. Intelligence services and their recommendation is that they feel that huawei equipment is not safe thats something that other nations will be looking at very closely. The u. K. Made their decision to allow huawei to have a limited role in its 5g network because they were happy that they could mitigate the risk and handle the risk if theyre changing their view on that. That could have had an effect in the u. K. And elsewhere you also have the u. S. Government continuing to pressure them.
