In the late 1900s, early 2000s, and the price has fallen so much that everybody has a gps system and you do not get lost, the kids are not crying in the backseat. That is a big corrective the increase in reality but it does not show up in gdp across a production. The kids are always crying. He enjoyed the music. I could not measure if he was a guy in college. To jail for goes security fraud, does that bother you that the guy has one copy of this record . He said he has not listened to it yet. He bought it, he can do what he wants, the power of art, i could never discriminate if the most greatest man in the world was the one who wanted to possess it. T wouldve been his objective if my enemy came to an auction and was like, i want that picture to throw darts at it, it is an auction so i could never, ever, at this stage in my life discriminate who appreciates art. Is there any way, given the contract, for more of the world to hear the record . He has the power. If he was to be philanthropic, he can do something that would allow more people to hear the record. They have or not detonated an hbomb is beside the point may be, because this is a very Troubling Development<\/a> in north korea, right . Not only for north korea and south korea, but for the world if this is an h bomb thermonuclear weapon, it would pose a more serious threat to andn, to china itself, south korea, but also alaska, hawaii, the western part of the United States<\/a>. This is serious if it were a hydrogen bomb. It is doubtful at this point, we will have to wait and see. Theynnot be ignored and cannot be appeased, we need to ratchet up the pressure to the north koreans, a are saying we have to say you cannot into new to destabilize markets or pose a global threat without a consequence to in the north. We have to have a comprehensive program, we do not have one right now. David you are watching bloomberg best. I am david gura. A catastrophic weekend chinese markets. It is feeding investor anxiety but experts are still split on whether china is heading toward a financial crisis or it can steer through its crisis and pull off a soft landing, we heard arguments from both sides this week on bloomberg television. Realdisconnect between Economic Activity<\/a> in the world and asset prices. Where with a few exceptions where markets have adjusted significantly on the downside. In general, markets asset prices are high and Economic Activity<\/a> in real terms is very poor kid in china, it was evident already for two years that the economy was slowing down. Eternally optimistic fund essentially have to advertise the products to make money, they remain bullish of a chinese economy, import and a court out of taiwan to china, they pointed out to a meaningful slowdown for 1. 5 years. You are not seeing a hard landing . A lot of we will get volatility on markets and how by . Will the one big record we have a hard landing in the stock market already and a hard landing in commodities. We might have a hard landing in the economy. We have a colossal credit bubble in china. I would rather be overly cautious on china that overly optimistic. The hard Landing School<\/a> views na is growing much worst worse than expected, on the cusp , nothing unemployment could be further from the truth. Urban job growth through the first three quarters of this year is running at a 14. 4 million annual rate. That is above the 13 million of the previous two years. Well above the targeted increases in the last several years of 10 million a year. How can china be slumming its gdp and doing better on employment. It works when you understand the job at laboroyment intensive services, Services Require<\/a> 30 more jobs creative output than does the old economy, manufacturing and construction. By doing the structural change it generates more jobs. Nothing but cold water on the hard landing story in china. China is a transitional story, you cannot look at topline gdp i conclude about where china is going harder or soft. You have to look at the pieces, the mix, the mix is far more constructive than the china bears would lead you to believe. We hear an increasing amount of talk, fear if you will, concern that the chinese economy will have a hard landing, do you share . I do not, clearly the economy is slowing down. Expected ato have smooth transition in the chinese economy from a manufacturing, export, investment, economy to a service, technology, consumer, economy. No country in the world has been able to do that transition smoothly. We went through the bumps but i would not want to bet against the government authorities in a country that is largely stateowned. They have a lot of leverage in what they can do in Monetary Policy<\/a> and fiscal policy in Foreign Exchange<\/a> policy to revive the economy. I am not a believer that it will be a hard landing. There are two issues, one which has to do with the economy, and can the Chinese Government<\/a> soft land its economy without a big disaster, the answer is yes. Another question, what to do with financial bubbles in the chinese economy . There are pockets of excessive risktaking and that is harder. The stock market is part of it. They have fallen in the same trap we fell into which is to encourage an activity, in our case it was homebuying, which has social benefits. It goes too far, they encourage share buying, stock buying as a way to spread the market economy and it went too far. The chinese will succeed in soft landing their economy but they will have a lot more problems soft landing the financial market. Landingjust chinese look like when their economy is geared toward services and consumption rather than the old model of investment in exports . It looks like an economy that grows at 5. 5 to 6 , not a percent to 10 , like an economy that we orient its Growth Engine<\/a> from the externals to the internals and one that will be less move than in the past. This is part of the process of development, the socalled middle income transition, it is tricky and messy but they do have the tools to deliver on it. David welcome back to bloomberg best. There will be an ambitious theescale work by christo, gates made internationally famous, and 2016 he will unveil a new project in northern italy. The lake is 60 miles east. In that lake, there is a small island, home to about 2000 people, a population totally dependent on boats and ferries. Christo who has outlined hold islands with bright pink cloth got an idea. Next year they will walk on the water. Literally walk on water. On a path of yellow fabric on top of 200,000 classic qubes. Plastic cubes. The first project he will do without his wife who passed away in 2009. The floating peers will be in place for a limited time. Team will disassemble it after about two weeks. When the project has happened, of a few days, the people know the other side of something. Every human is unique and they like to witness something unique. What is also unique is how these projects are financed, early on they decided to need to do things out of necessity. His collectors and dealers are notoriously slow payers. We cannot say to our workers we will not pay them because somebody has not paid yet. In 1982, he at his wife formed a corporation headquartered in delaware that sells his original works of art from the 1950s to the present, drawings, collages, fabric, there is a subsidiary for each project, right now he is working on three of them, including the floating peers. Artwork ifys back his he sees it on the market and thinks it is undervalued. We are the biggest owners of work of art we have. These projects often take years, it took 24 years or he and his wife to get permission from new york city to do the gates from then mayor michael bloomberg. As you have become better known is it easier to get past the reg the tory hurdles regulatory hurdles . No. Never. He keeps busy, he was days away from a trip to abu dhabi to work on another of the three projects he is doing. He is 80 and we asked him if he has even more projects. , if we havea saying a new idea we tell you right away. If i have a new idea, you will know right away. Is loading a project estimated to cost 11 million and open to the public for 16 days starting in midjune.
